Redemption

Gowron's succession is challenged by Toral, son of Duras, and his aunts Lursa and B'Etor, who have Romulan allies; Picard refuses to take sides, and Worf resigns from Starfleet to serve Gowron, who restores his honour.

• Follows Sins Of The Father (S03E17): Worf, discommended in Sins of the Father, has his honour restored by Gowron.
• Follows Reunion (S04E07): Picard, who arbitrated the succession in Reunion, is told he is 'already involved' when Duras' family challenges Gowron.
• Leads to Redemption part 2 (S05E01): Resolves the cliffhanger: Sela's Romulan support for the Duras family is exposed.
• Referenced by Yesterday's Enterprise (S03E15)
• Referenced by The Mind's Eye (S04E24)
• Referenced by Unification, part 2 (S05E08): Related rather than explicit: a Romulan woman backs the Duras sisters in Redemption; in Unification the Romulan Sela runs the plot against Vulcan.
• Referenced by Rightful Heir (S06E23): Related rather than explicit: Gowron leads the High Council in both, with no reference back to the civil war.

Captain's log, stardate 44995.3. We're en route to the Klingon home world, where I will participate in the installation ceremony of Gowron, the next designated Leader of the High Council. This visit should also provide an opportunity for one of my officers to correct a grave injustice.

Captain's log, stardate 44998.3. With new-found support, Gowron has chosen to proceed with the installation ceremony. The Enterprise has returned so that I may perform my final duty as Arbiter of Succession.
