The episode is #3

The premise of this episode is taken from the film.

There is a shot of a Romulan holodeck chamber. Hanging from the ceiling is the main holographic projector, which is actually an upside-down model of the Jupiter 2 spaceship from Lost in Space. It was placed there as an homage by miniatures designer Ed Miarecki.

In Future Imperfect, Riker has a surprising reason to remember his adventure with the Binars.
