Number / Name | Why I liked it |
525 / 6:1
A time to stand |
Occupation by "friendly forces".
Undercover behind enemy lines. Sabotage. Fancy windows. A mathematical genius emerges from the closet. |
527 / 6:2
Rocks and shoals |
Ship wreck.
Protest, even when it won't change conditions? Enemies working together, sort of. And allies betrayed. Anything to survice. |
526 / 6:3
Sons and daughters |
Father and son in the same army.
"Parents" and daughter reunited. The "divorced parents" also reunited? |
528 / 6:4
Behind enemy lines |
Ritual.
Sabotage. Promoted to a desk job. Whose side is he on? Is he serene? Or drugged? |
529 / 6:5
Favor the bold |
A friend and an enemy, making the same unpopular request.
A promotion. Back into active duty. The eve of the battle. |
530 / 6:6
Sacrifice of angels |
Waking up from a dream.
Willing to die to save others. Deus ex machina. Moses and the river. A daughter dies. And the megalomaniac father goes mad. |
531 / 6:7
You are cordially invited |
A wedding. A mother in law.
A wife. Ritual. |
532 / 6:8
Resurrection |
Alternate universe. Not dead, but alive. Not spiritual, but violent.
Spirituality. Romance - rekindled. Seeing the future. Fame sucks. |
533 / 6:9
Statistical probabilities |
Crazy.
Genetically engineered. Intelligent and talented. Not suited for an ordinary job. A think tank. Feeling useful and among friends. Freedom or life? "The end is near." One person can change history. |
534 / 6:10
The magnificent Ferengi | Unlikely heroes. |
535 / 6:11
Waltz |
Crazy.
The roles of enemies reversed. Enemies - but also polite, understanding... "I had no choice." Rather free than alive. Good and evil. |
536 / 6:12
Who mourns for Morn? |
A death. Inheritance. Fortune.
"Worthless gold." |
538 / 6:13
Far beyond the stars |
Overresponsible. Stressed? Hallucinating? Escaping from reality.
Alternative reality. If our people lived in the 1950s, as SF-writers. Racism. And some excellent reactions against it. Humor. Meta: DS9 wondering whether it's a fantasy. Very good. |
537 / 6:14
One little ship |
Miniature people. "Fantastic voyage".
A prisoner, planning escape. |
539 / 6:15
Honor among thieves |
Spying. Infiltration.
The enemy is also a person. How inconvenient. |
540 / 6:16 Change of heart |
Romance. A spouse in pain - dying? Important tactical information, or the life of a spouse? |
541 / 6:17 Wrongs darker than death or night |
The unpleasant truth about mother. Time travel. Collaborator? |
542 / 6:18 Inquisition |
Spying? Interrogation. Suspicion. Imprisonment. "Confess!"
And then it was just a test of loyalty? Repressed memory. Or? How can one be sure? Confused by a false reality. The ends and the means... |
543 / 6:19 In the pale moonlight |
A non-aggression-pact. But it will be betrayed, and we need
the other party as an ally, now. The end justify the means? A terrible secret. Good. |
544 / 6:20 His way |
If our crew met Frank Sinatra. Romance. FInding a way to say those first difficult words. Suppressing feelings. Singing. Absolute clarity. |
545 / 6:21 The reckoning |
Vision, prophecy. Religion. Thy will... The big battle between
good and evil. Son of a legend. Possessed. Chosen. Beware what you wish for. |
546 / 6:22 Valiant |
A ship crewed by young people. Foolhardy. |
547 / 6:23 Profit and lace |
Womens liberation. If a male crewmember was a female. |
548 / 6:24 Time's orphan |
Time travel. Fun with time. A child gone missing. Alone for a long time, regressed. "Tarzan". And then really lose the child? Touching. |
549 / 6:25 The sound of her voice |
Running and running to save somebody. At first just a voice. Romance. It is good to talk. Fun with time. |
550 / 6:26 Tears of the prophets |
Song. Romance. Losing a loved one. Great Personalities gathering for a Grand Event. Having to choose between incompatible careers. A crewmember dies. Guilt. Sabbathical. |
