Aside from that nudge, I chose this one almost randomly, as an exercise, to test the theory that we can find reality in any well crafted story, that what God says is true is so true that it cannot be easily avoided. I don’t think I saw it on its initial run, and it pops up as a regular favorite of that ilk. Why I chose it:Įxcept for the finale, this was the last high concept, reality bending episode, and I really like the puzzle episodes. Writer Brannon Braga literally explodes the concept by the ending, Worfs are returned to their respective universes, and he opens his mind to previously unconsidered possibilities. Worf slowly realizes that he is hopping between possible universes, to the growing concern of those around him who expect him to know what he was just doing or saying, or how to raise the shields he was supposed to raise, or just who it is he went and married some years ago.
