Star Trek TNG: “Yesterday’s Enterprise” S3/E15
In the “Yesterday’s Enterprise” episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation, the crew of the USS Enterprise encounters a temporal rift that brings a previous version of their ship from an alternate timeline into their reality. This alternate timeline is darker, with the Federation at war with the Klingons. As they grapple with the consequences of this alternate reality, the crew must decide whether to restore the timeline they know or allow the past to remain changed. The episode explores themes of sacrifice, duty, and the ripple effects of individual decisions on the course of history. Ultimately, it teaches us the importance of facing difficult choices with courage and integrity, even when the consequences are uncertain.
NOTE: We ask that everyone attending stream the episode locally, you will need access to this episode on streaming service or DVD/BlueRay. We do not typically stream the episode for you due to technical and copywrite restrictions.

Star Trek TNG: “Ethics” S5/E16
In “Ethics” (TNG, Episode 5×16), Lieutenant Worf sustains a severe injury, prompting Dr. Crusher to propose an experimental treatment. However, Worf, deeply rooted in his Klingon heritage, opts for traditional Klingon rituals to restore his honour. The crew grapples with the clash between medical ethics and cultural practices. This thought-provoking episode delves into the complexities of balancing individual choices, ethical considerations, and the significance of cultural diversity in decision-making. Ultimately, Worf’s journey teaches the crew and viewers alike the importance of respecting diverse perspectives and understanding the intricate interplay between tradition and modernity.
