Season 2, Episode 17, Samaritan Snare is odd because the middle and right sliders light up, and then the transporter crewman slides her hands up them, not the other way around. The second time, all three sliders light up, despite his hand only contacting the centre one. This time he uses the far left and middle sliders, ignoring the one on the right. For some reason they also randomly light up while he's doing other things with the controls. Season 2, Episode 12, The Royale has a couple of scenes where O'Brien uses the sliders. Season 2, Episode 7, Unnatural Selection has this hand gesture repeated by one of O'Brien's flunkies with what can only be described as greater flamboyance. Season 2, Episode 5, Loud as a Whisper finally gets us a couple of good solid O'Brien signature transporter 'slides to energise'. The sliders are now slid, but not individually. Season 2, Episode 2, Where Silence Has Lease finds us with O'Brien in the transporter room where he will remain for most of the series.

This time the slider remains intermittently lit. The third one remains lit throughout the cycle.įrom the same episode. We hear three button presses and then we see the 'sliders' blinking. Season 1 Episode 24, We'll Always Have Paris. They then remain lit for the entire transport cycle. The three stripes are present, but button presses at the bottom of the stripes are sufficient to cause (two of them) to light up. Focusing purely on instances where we see the transporter slider controls being actuated, the first time we see them used on screen is Season 1, Episode 21, The Arsenal of Freedom.
