Seems like that's what eventually turned into the episode "The Child" of TNG. Which was earlier to be used in the never-made "Star Trek Phase 2" series a good decade earlier. And even then, the episode only got made because there was a writers strike and they had to use scripts that were mostly finished already. And even then the episode still sucked! It's currently ranked as the 170th episode out of a total of 176
