The Nagus! What originally was a really boring episode about business expansion was transformed into a madcap adaptation of The Godfather, and boy it works! Also, Ricardo begins his campaign for the American presidency in the 2028 election. We're not joking.

Birthright, Part I! What started as an episode about Worf trying to find his father turned into a sort-of DS9 crossover where Julian Bashir tries to help Data figure out how to dream. Yeah, kind of a weird mash-up. Uh, fathers, I guess!
