I'm convinced that Worf never actually committed a crime on Risa. Sort of a fantasy island scenario. None of it was real. That was just Worf's vacation.

I mean, all he really did was make it windy and rainy for an afternoon, undoubtedly causing many vacationers to hurriedly take shelter, cuddle up in blankets and gently caress.

I wonder how many people even noticed or cared. "See? I told you that was a fucknado outside and not just the neighbors. I guess we'll go to the orgy before windsurfing today."

Didn't he give the other weirdos the remote before noping out and then acted surprised when they started making earthquakes and poo poo? Not particularly good judgement imo.

Worf’s always been an idiot though. This is the same guy who comes from the planet of drunken fratbros but is constantly shocked when they don’t act like strict bushido code samurai.

The man runs into his wife's hot ex on Risa and his response is to join the Proud Boys, he's a certified idiot.

Horrible Taste posted:Unless it was Data, then Picard would let it fly without even a slap on the wrist like when Data hijacked the entire ship and endangered the life of a poisoned child. Look, if you start kicking out everyone who's had their brains hosed with by an outside source, you're gonna be unable to crew the fleet within a year.

I watched "For the Uniform" tonight and I'm pretty sure I saw the face a Klingon makes when he has to accept that he has lost honor. This episode used to be absolutely adored and referenced ad nauseum by people defending the Bush Doctrine fifteen years ago, as the Federation civilians in the DMZ choking on gas for being aligned with raiding parties on Starfleet vessels was more or less what Bush-era neocons wanted to do to the Palestinians for Hamas. I don't know if any of those people ever watched Wrath of Khan, since the episode feels like a reversal of TWoK right down to a heavy-handed literary reference.

I wish there was a tally of every episode that features a character talking to their mirror universe/holographic/whatever double. Any instance of an actor being shoddily split-screened into a scene with themselves. We all intuitively know it happens a lot, but it really happens a lot once you start noticing it.

There aren’t actually many occasions where people literally meet their own mirror universe equivalent. Kira did, but I can’t immediately think of another occasion. Transporter clones are more common.

Yeah the Thomas Riker episode is the best for that sort of thing. Lots of awkward shots with the two of them.

There's also that episode where Brent Spinner plays three characters alone together on a planet, that was pretty great.

Janeway met her counterpart face to face in "Deadlock". The Doctor interacted with his creator in "Lifeline". B'elanna was split into human and Klingon halves that worked together in "Faces".

You also have Kirk split into his good and evil halves and I suppose Data got to meet a bunch of selves when he was in that time lab trying to figure out which one was in the correct timeframe?

Riker and Pulaski meet (and smoke) their own clones in the Irish episode, can’t remember how that was filmed off the top of my head tho

The clones were only partially formed and translucent, so they were just dummies.

I think that may have been the only Star Trek episode to have a thing about abortion.

Let's see, DS9 ones... The already-mentioned Kira and Mirror Kira Jadzia and Bashir's Fantasy Horny Jadzia Odo and Other Changeling Posing as Odo O'Brien and Slightly Different Timeline O'Brien I feel like I'm still missing something obvious.

This train of thought was started by watching VOY: Relativity and TNG: Descent and Second Chances back to back to back.

I wonder if the Federation has guidelines around how far along a clone can be formed before it can be considered a viable sentient being. That's a whole other thing the episode really didn't touch on. If these people were were grown as full adults, how in the hell did they go through all the normal brain development and learn stuff? I honestly suspect the reason why they went with a fully grown counterpart is so they could sidestep the whole abortion question. If these people were creating cloned embryos that went through normal human development from birth, termination of that is likely something that wouldn't have flown on TV. It's also one of those things that seems a little anachronistic by today's standards. If someone has the technology to grow a fully formed clone human, then surely they have the tools for gene editing to create enough genetic diversity.

Also re doubles there's the one where Picard meets and kills himself through some time travel fuckery.
