    Isn’t Terry Farrell dramatically allergic to direct sunlight? I feel like I read that in the trivia for the episode The Ship, and that was why Dax had to stay inside for the whole episode.

    Never being allowed to go out in direct sunlight will have a real positive effect on one’s aging process.

      Yep, she has a skin condition. I didn’t know this, so I looked it up. I guess it’s not super common knowledge, but she has discussed it before.

      One of the fans asked Terry Farrell about her skin disorder, which prevented her from doing much shooting outside, such as the episode Rocks and Shoals where Dax stays inside a cave for most of the episode. Farrell told how she was teased when people saw her about walking about with a parasol.
