  • A member of VIPER's Dragon Branch.
  • Minuet made a powerful impression on Riker. In 2367, while he was stranded on an alien planet, an alien named Barash used her image in a recreation of Riker's supposed lost memories, casting Minuet as his wife due to the intensity of his remaining emotions for her. The discrepancy allowed Riker to realize the truth of the scenario he was facing. (TNG episode: "Future Imperfect") When the Enterprise developed sentience later that year and realized it had to give that sentience up to avoid being dismantled, it preserved itself by downloading its new programming into the Minuet program. (TNG short story: "Of Cabbages and Kings") While this story seems to suggest a timeframe immediately prior to "11001001", it also contains a reference to Picard's experience with the Borg. The Minuet program was later relocated to the holodecks on board USS Titan. In 2381, it was the core of the Avatar program when the ship's computer ascended to become an AI with her own agenda. (TTN novel: Synthesis)

  • Voulant jouer de la musique, Riker spécifia le lieu et demanda au holodeck la création d'un public. Initialement, le système créa un public nombreux, mais Riker demanda quelque chose de plus intime. Le programme créa alors une femme, d'abord blonde, puis rousse, Riker expliquant que "les blondes et le jazz vont rarement ensemble". A la demande de l'officier, le personnage fut transformé vers sa configuration finale. Grâce aux améliorations réalisées par les Bynars, le personnage de Minuet était indubitablement différent des autres personnages du holodeck. Picard et Riker partageaient l'avis que le programme était particulièrement réaliste, intuitif et doté d'une faculté d'adaptation et d'analyse visuelle et auditive hors du commun. Minuet parla français lorsqu'elle entendit le nom du capitaine et adapta sa personnalité et ses actes pour paraître la plus réaliste possible. Cependant, il s'avèra que Minuet avait été programmée par les Bynars pour distraire Riker alors qu'ils détournaient le vaisseau pour sauver l'ordinateur central de leur planète Bynaus. Minuet tenta d'ailleurs de retenir Riker et Picard d'une manière qui alerta leurs soupçons. Mais après le retour de l'Enterprise sur la Base Stellaire 74, Riker découvrit que la version améliorée de Minuet avait disparu, malgré ses tentatives pour la recréer. (TNG: "11001001") Trois ans plus tard, alors que Riker était retenu sur une planète avec un extra-terrestre nommé Barash, celui-ci créa une version du futur de Riker, où il tenait le rôle de son fils. Dans cette réalité, 'Minuet' était la femme de Riker, ce qui alerta l'officier et lui fit soupçonner que la réalité qu'il vivait n'était pas... réelle. Cette erreur provenait de ce que Barash avait lu dans l'esprit de Riker pour créer cette réalité et qu'il avait confondu les forts sentiments pour Minuet avec ceux qu'il aurait eus pour une femme réelle. (TNG: "Future Imperfect") Minuet fut interprété par Carolyn McCormick.
  • Wishing to play some music, Riker specified the location and requested an audience for the program. Initially the system created a full crowd, but Riker reduced the audience to one, a woman. The system created the female character first as a blonde, but Riker changed her appearance to that of a redhead because - as he said - "blondes and jazz seldom go together". The character was further revised at his request that she appear "sultry" until her final configuration was set. (TNG: "11001001" ) Prior to the program's initiation, the holodeck had been upgraded by the Bynars and it was immediately clear that Minuet was different from any other holodeck character. Riker found her unbelievably realistic and intuitive, a view shared by Captain Picard. Minuet was able to adapt to subtle visual and audio cues given off by the people in the holodeck. She spoke French to Captain Picard after hearing his name, despite not being programmed to do so, and made other slight adjustments to her personality and actions in order to provide the most realistic companion possible. The result was that Riker found Minuet to be fascinating, almost "too real", and realized that he could fall in love with her just as with a real woman. However, she seemed to be aware of her status as a computer program; for example, when Picard marveled that she responded in French merely upon hearing his name, she responded that she accessed the French language database from the ship's computer. (TNG: "11001001" ) However, it transpired that Minuet was programmed by the Bynars to distract Riker while they took control of the Enterprise in an effort to save the main computer of their homeworld. When Picard and Riker tried to leave the holodeck, Minuet tried to stop them before ultimately revealing the details of the situation. The Bynars provided her program with information that allowed Riker and Picard to help them save their world if their own attempts failed. After the Enterprise had been safely returned to Starbase 74, Riker returned to the holodeck to her program, only to find that the enhanced Minuet character had disappeared. In her place, another short-haired brunette appeared, who both by personality and appearance was nowhere near the Minuet Riker had interacted with while the Bynars were in charge. His attempts to recreate her failed and he was deeply disappointed. (TNG: "11001001" ) Minuet was part of Commander Riker's memories while being infected on the surface of Surata IV and treated in sickbay. (TNG: "Shades of Gray" ) After an accident during an away mission in 2367, Riker was stranded on Alpha Onias III with a lonely alien known as Barash who created an elaborate deception, making Riker believe that sixteen years had passed since his accident in 2367 and that he was the Captain of the Enterprise-D. In the reality Barash had created for Riker based on Riker's memories, 'Minuet' was his wife, Min Riker. The fact that a holographic figure he was so enticed with was supposed to be his flesh-and-blood wife alerted Riker that this reality was not real at all. Apparently, Barash mistook Riker's strong feelings for Minuet as meaning that she was a real woman and not a holodeck character. (TNG: "Future Imperfect" )
