| - Betty Riker era la moglie di Kyle Riker, e la madre di William T. Riker. (TNG: "Amnesia") Ella morì nel 2337, quando Will aveva due anni; pertanto, egli non ha mai conosciuto sua madre. (TNG: "Tempo al quadrato", "L'interfaccia") Una delle ultime richieste di Betty fu che Kyle allevasse Will a Valdez, cosa che egli fece. (TNG: "Fattore Icaro") Non avendo mai conosciuto Betty mentre cresceva, tutto ciò che suo figlio Will sapeva di lei era preso dalle immagini e dalle storie che il marito raccontava al figlio; storie che Will implorava continuamente suo padre di raccontare. Nel 2340, quando Will aveva cinque anni e iniziò la scuola, cominciò a raccontare ai nuovi amici le stesse storie su sua madre che suo padre gli raccontava, come se fosse ancora viva. Alla fine, egli raccontò le storie su di lei così spesso che iniziò a crederci, convincendosi che lei era solo andata via e sarebbe tornata. Presto, la sua insegnante venne a sapere di questo problema, e sia lei sia Kyle dovettero parlare a Will e fargli capire che sua madre era morta e non sarebbe tornata. Nella sua mente, quello fu il giorno in cui sua madre morì realmente. Will pianse l’intera notte seguente, ma in seguito si rese conto che fu un importante passo per accettare la morte della madre. (TNG: "L'interfaccia") La morte di Betty fu molto traumatica per Kyle e l’unica cosa che lo facesse andare avanti era Will, sebbene non abbia rivelato questo fatto a suo figlio. Le memorie della presenza di Betty nella loro casa in Alaska erano penose per entrambi, e questo trauma iniziale creò una frattura tra i due Riker che sarebbe durata quindici anni. (TNG: "Fattore Icaro")
- Betty Riker ist die Frau von Kyle Riker und Mutter von William T. Riker. Sie stirbt 2337, als Will gerade mal 2 Jahre alt ist. (TNG: , )
- Betty Riker was the wife of Kyle Riker, and the mother of William T. Riker. (TNG: "Conundrum" ) She died in 2337, when Will was two years old; therefore, he never got to know his mother. (TNG: "Time Squared" , "Interface" ) One of Betty's final requests was that Kyle raise Will in Alaska, which he did. (TNG: "The Icarus Factor" ) Never being able to know Betty while growing up, everything her son Will knew about her was taken from pictures and the stories her husband told their son; stories Will begged his father to tell, over and over. In 2340, when Will was five years old and started school, he began to tell his new friends the same stories about his mother that his father told him, as if she was still alive. Eventually, he told the stories about her so often, he began to believe them, and that she had just gone away but was coming back. Soon, his teacher learned of this problem, and both she and Kyle had to talk to Will and make him realize that his mother was dead and she was not coming back. In his mind, that was the day his mother actually died. Will cried the entire night following, but later realized it was an important step in accepting his mother's death. (TNG: "Interface" ) Betty's death was very traumatic for Kyle and the only thing which kept him going was Will, although he did not reveal this fact to his son. The memories of Betty's presence at their Alaskan home were painful for both, and this initial trauma created a rift between the two Rikers which would last fifteen years. (TNG: "The Icarus Factor" ) Betty Riker's name was never spoken in dialogue, but was established in a biography screen prepared for Will in "Conundrum" , although it was not seen in the episode. (Star Trek Encyclopedia) The novel Deny Thy Father gives Riker's mother name as Annie.
