Star Trek - The Next Generation, Episode 108: Unification, Part I VHSA very good and refreshing storey(nice to get a break away from Klingons) where Spock is on Romulus (and is spotted by Starfleet inteligence) urging a re-unification between Vulcans and Romulans. Picard goes to see Sarek, Spocks father, to find out where Spock could've gone. It is a very moving scene with Mark Lenard (Sarek), where he portrays a deteriorating Vulcan who has lost almost all his mind control capabilities (worth watching if only for this scence, it is very moving and is a truely great loss with the death of Mark Lenard). Spock finds that many people on Romulus want follow a Vulcan way of life. Then he finds that the Procouncil wants to meet with him to urge the re-unification. It is a trap. With Spock is Picard to check-up on him. They get themselves out of the trap with a little technical help from Data. Picard offers Spock to mind meld to find out more about his father and the fact that he loved Spock. Picard and Data leave while Spock stays behind...

Sarek believes his son went to Romulus to meet with Pardek to discuss the possibility of the "unification" of their two peoples (An aside: seeing as how the Romulans have an empire and the Vulcans have just their planet, this reminds me of China wanting "unification" with Taiwan; these are not exactly equal parties in these negotiations--but the parallel sure works). After Sarek's death, Picard and Data are transported to a cloaked Klingon warship, which will take them to Romulus where they will beam down and attempt to locate Spock. Meanwhile, the Enterprise tries to... | 4 | |
