As a child, I never liked the heartbeat scene. The sound of that single heartbeat and the idea of someone hiding and creeping about alone in that empty ship always freaked me out.
That was a great literary device and actually a wonderful twist on the "Tell Tale Heart" - whoever wrote the story was probably inspired by that.
The other great twist is that Cogley's speech regarding a machine having no rights, but a man must, was given a twist in TNG (with Data's hearing on self-determination).

Great episode! Especially since I had never seem it before!
Now I know where TGN got some of its courtroom inspired stories. I don't know the name of the episodes but I'm particularly talking about the episode where Riker is on trial for the explosion of a research lab studying Kreeger Waves and the episode where Picard outsmarts a conman trying to pose as the devil.
Some of the best Star Trek episodes took place in a courtroom.
