    Of course, there's also the continuity reference that Galen is the name of Picard's archeology professor from The Chase who compared Picard being a federation officer to a centurion guarding the walls of a crumbling empire.

    Also when I watched the second part a few nights back, I thought the whole bit with the Klingon pirate was to show how ill-equipped the Enterprise was in the face of "real manly men", given that it appeared that Troi was having issues "coping" with the Klingon as well as Data.

    Also, when talking about this episode on twitter, you mentioned you figured out why Sela had issues with the Klingons and wanted to tear them down. Could you elaborate on that?

    Worf took SelaXTasha's job, and thus her place in the Enterprise family, both diegetically and extradiegetically. And in the years since, Worf has done nothing but deride the community's utopianism through his petulant and adolescent refusal to play.

    Tasha would have enhanced Star Trek: The Next Generation's utopianism by contributing her voice as an outsider who was hurt by the Federation's expansionist colonialism, yet who still believes in the ideals they lied about having. Worf has become a reactionary Klingon fundamentalist who has been systematically working against them for six years.

    As of "Redemption", Tasha feels enough is enough. She sees the Klingon Empire of the type that tempted Worf as a threat to peace in the galaxy and to her and her people: The Romulans, the only ones who were willing to accept her.
