180: Participation Trophy

Parallels.



The ideas of alternate timelines and multiverses are
fantastically combined in "Parallels." Worf goes through a
quantum fissure on his return from a bat'leth tournament causing
him to quantum flux between several parallel universes. It is
only through the matching of his RNA that allows him to be
returned to his correct universe.


 


In this episode of Earl Grey, hosts Richard Marquez, Lee
Hutchison, and Amy Nelson discuss the seventh season episode
"Parallels." We identify the different sets and uniforms used to
differentiate between parallel universes, the exponential nature
of parallel universes based on choices made, and what choices
warrant a break from the timeline. We also comment on the
validity of the Worf/Troi relationship introduced so late in the
series.
