Norman's circuitry (remastered).
In 2268, Harry Mudd, who became stranded on the planet which he named after himself, sent Norman to capture the USS Enterprise so that he could leave the planet in exchange for the Enterprises crew.
Norman left the planet, and posing as a Starfleet sciences division officer, signed on board the Enterprise. After successfully taking the ship over, he redirected it to planet Mudd to carry out Harry Mudd's plan.
The plot failed when the crew caused Norman, who was the central contol for the androids, to have a mechanical breakdown when his processors were unable to deal with a flood of illogic presented to him by the Enterprise's crew. (TOS: "I, Mudd")
- The breakdown was apparently only temporary, as Norman can be seen in the background of the last scene of the episode with Stella Mudd.
