This episode deals with some of the lingering plots that Sinclair’s exit left behind, and it brings back one of my favorite recurring antagonists in Neroon of the Warrior Caste. It is a pretty good showcase for Marcus, Delenn and … Continue reading The Last Best Hope…- “Grey 17 is Missing”
Star Trek: The Next Generation – Season 2, Episode 20 “The Emissary” is very much a spiritual sequel to “Heart of Glory” in that it drops some more substantial Worf lore while continuing to fill in more of how Klingons … Continue reading You Talking Trek to Me? (Best of TNG) – “The Emissary”

Two parters in such a serialized series seem like they dont make sense, but I kind of view this one as a TV movie that got broken into two episodes. There were some dangling plot threads, and this episode comes … Continue reading The Last Best Hope…- “War Without End Part 1”
