The 'lady' in 'ladybugs' refers to the Virgin Mary.

First of all, there are over 5,000 varieties of ladybugs.

However, the first type of these beetles to be called a 'ladybug' had 7 spots which were thought to symbolize the 7 sorrows she suffered.

"Imaginary Friend" is a different kind of story with great performances from the guest child actors.

Thanks to @madonnaots.com for hosting! #TNGSunNight

Clara reuniting with "Isabella" could be an interesting short story. #TNGSunNight

The Picard of Season One would not have been this comfortable near a child. #TNGSunNight

Isabella doesn't blink very often, making her even creepier. #TNGSunNight

Eight minutes before the shields are drained, but less than eight minutes are left in the episode. #TNGSunNight

Troi has another painful encounter with a non-corporeal life form. #TNGSunNight

Good job by Clara for reporting Isabella's threats and her father for believing them. #TNGSunNight

Troi and Guinan didn't share many scenes, but the way they play off of each other is interesting. #TNGSunNight

Noley Thornton (Clara) would return in DS0's "Shadowplay," while her father (Jeff Allin) would return in Voyager's "Dragon's Teeth" and the Star Trek: Borg video game. (H/T to Memory Alpha.) #TNGSunNight

For the record, I had a remarkable imaginary friend, too. #TNGSunNight

Guinan's hat shape tonight: serving platter. #TNGSunNight

It's a good thing Guinan was on duty for Clara's arrival in Ten Forward. #TNGSunNight

We'd meet La Forge's parents in Season Seven, under less than happy circumstances. #TNGSunNight

The Enterprise-D was such a huge ship that the chances of Clara and Isabella running into Worf would not be as common in "real life." #TNGSunNight
