Notes
  • This episode is a continuation of the storyline from "Reunion".
  • Toral is Duras' bastard son. The sisters of Duras challenge Gowron's installation. As Arbiter of Succession, Picard rejects his claim.
  • Gowron's flagship is the I.K.C. Bortas, a Vor'cha-class attack cruiser.
  • After the installation ceremony, Gowron restores Worf's family's honor.
  • Troi, Crusher, and La Forge do not appear in this episode, save Worf's departure scene; they have no speaking lines.
  • The Romulan Commander looks suspiciously like Tasha Yar!
