Episode 22, Season 5
This is what Star Trek is all about.

As I've been struggling to get through the sheer pessimism of Picard, I'm reminded of how thoughtful and optimistic Star Trek used to be. This episode is a shining example of that. It has heart, character, and bravery in the face of decimation. The story itself is (by 2020 standards at least) a little worn out, as grandfather paradoxes are nothing new. But I admire the show's efforts to present moral and ethical dilemmas while also developing character arcs in a sci-fi setting. Kurtzman et al. take note - this what Star Trek is supposed to be: exploration, science fiction, ethics, and most importantly, hope.
