Synopsis
Worf is told by the Yridian Jaglom Shrek that his father Mogh survived Khitomer in a Romulan prison camp, and goes there. Meanwhile a plasma shock gives Data visions of Doctor Soong, and he activates dormant circuits that let him dream. Worf is seized in the camp.
Continuity
- Leads to Birthright, part 2 (S06E17): Resolves the cliffhanger: Worf, seized at the camp Shrek described, finds it is no true prison camp.
- Leads to Phantasms (S07E06): Data's dream programme, activated in Birthright, turns to nightmares.
