Episode #81: Reunion
REUNION - episode #7 of 4th season / Air Date: 11/5/90; Directed by Jonathan Frakes
written by Drew Deighan, Thomas Perry, Jo Perry, Ronald D. Moore, Brannon Braga
This one functions as a sequel to both Sins of the Father and The Emissary (2nd season) and features the return of K'Ehleyr (Suzie Plakson), who brings a young son with her (this son, Alexander, was conceived in The Emissary - those Klingons sure grow fast). Worf is... surprised. But, that's the personal side of things - also back are chancellor K'mpec (Charles Cooper) and Duras. K'Ehleyr tells Picard that K'mpec has to meet with him; turns out, the Klingon ruler is about to die; he has been poisoned - he is certain his killer is one of two challengers to the throne: Duras or Gowran (Robert O'Reilly - his 1st show-up - he of the bulging Klingon eyes).
Picard is handed the weighty job of arbiter: besides selecting the next ruler, Picard needs to determine which of the two is the killer - such a sneaky killer is quite non-Klingon and must not be the next ruler. To make a story short, K'Ehleyr soon figures out that
- Spoiler:
- Duras is the guilty party; like his father, he is secretly working with Romulans and is very unscrupulous; why? Dunno - I guess he's just a sneaky Klingon. K'Ehleyr is killed for her efforts but lives long enuff to whisper the news to Worf; too bad for Duras - he didn't know that she was Worf's mate; Worf gets very upset, gets his bat'leth and confronts Duras. A short battle later, Duras breathes his last.
- Spoiler:
- this marked K'Ehleyr's final appearance, as I considered her one of the more interesting characters on TNG, with a lot of potential.
