Great storytelling has depth, by which I don’t mean layers, levels, or profundity; but merely the kind of top-to-bottom richness that results in its leaving a deep imprint, which can be seen for a long time afterwards. “Reunion” is such a story. Not only was it one of the most rousing, entertaining hours that Star Trek: The Next Generation ever put on screen (and it remains so), but it is lastingly responsible for the storytelling that followed it. This episode pretty much writes the book on the next decade of Klingon stories. If “Sins of the Father” was The Hobbit for Star Trek’s Klingon mytharc, The Lord of the Rings starts with “Reunion.”
