20. summary
sisko puts together a composite picture of the woman he's been seeing in his visions from the prophets, only to find his dad has a picture of the same woman, his biological mother who left unexpectly and disappered when he was a baby. She was sent by the profits to create ben so he could grow up and become the emmisary. So basically, sisko is the bajorian jesus.

22. OK, I knew
that he ended up in the wormhole at the end of the series, but this unpacks it all for me. For which I give thanks to the mighty Cheezus!

13. They just revealed on "Enterprise" that type of Klingon Kirk fought
were actually Klingon augments. I'm not a huge fan, but I thought that was interesting.

29. They explained the difference between the Kirk era Klingons
And all the others.

It turned out that a bio-genetic plague was in danger of destroying the Klingon race. The Klingons were messing with Augment DNA (Wrath of Khan type shit) and it backfired on them. They kidnapped Phlox who helped discover a cure, but it meant that the Klingons would have to be changed. The would become Klingon augments, but in looks only, no super powers. Thus their ridges were gone.

32. The augments were running around causing all kinds of problems
The Klingons decided that they had to augment their entire race until a cure was found

10. You forgot
The forehead ridges and how drastically they change. I loved Worf's response and not wanting to talk about it. What a way for the writers to cover their butts.

Next Generation was my favorite series-- He was by far the best captain.

37. How's about
In the TNG pilot meeting at Farpoint, when the space base turns out to be a captured creature and takes off to join its mate. What a great ending. Certainly caught me by surprise.

Cool seeing Dr Smith getting zapped too.
