Redemption II

This Story: Season 5 Episode 1 (production code 201)
TNG Overall: Episode 101
Trek Overall: Story 199b, Episode 203
Airdate: 23 Sep 1991
Written by Ronald D. Moore
Directed by David Carson

Notes

  • Sela’s lineage as daughter of Tasha Yar heavily leans on the events of “Yesterday’s Enterprise” in the alternate timeline.
  • The concept of Sela being a daughter of Tasha Yar was an idea from Denise Crosby herself who enjoyed her time on Yesterday’s Enterprise and wanted to return.
  • The only episode that Sela appears in where she’s referred to by name.
  • Part II was directed by David Carson.  He did not direct Part I.
  • The Klingon bird of prey flying towards the sun is reused footage from Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home.
  • This episode is the last time the Duras sisters appear in Star Trek:TNG, but do make two further appearances in the franchise as a whole after this.
  • The last appearance (in TNG) as Kurn for Tony Todd.
  • Toral (the son of Duras) is next seen in the Deep Space Nine episode “The Sword of Kahless“, when he’s played by someone else.
  • Officially this episode is titled “Redemption II” vs the usual thing they’d do “Redemption Part II”. It feels weird without the “Part” in there.

#StarTrekMarathon #StarTrek TNG Ep 101 - Redemption Pt 2 - 23 Sep 1991 2/2 a few words for people who don't know the ep it was based off of, but I love a good alt reality story for sure. Loved seeing Worf serve with the Klingons and seeing them all drinking together. Good resolution to Part 1, IMO.
