Persis Khambatta's conservative Indian upbringing meant she would not appear nude as called for in the script during the Ilia probe's appearance. The producers got her to agree to wear a thin skin-coloured body stocking, but she caught a cold as a result of the shower mist, created by dropping dry ice (solid carbon dioxide) into warm water and funneling the vapors into the shower by a hidden tube. Khambatta had to leave the location repeatedly to avoid hypercapnia (excessive carbon dioxide in the bloodstream).
