Season 4
Episode 86 Daedalus
Doctor Emory Erickson tricks Enterprise into trying to save his missing son. Enterprise finds out they have been duped but helps him anyway. While doing a transport whammy jammy, they fail and his son dies.
It’s another blender episode. Much like the Star Trek Deep Space Nine episode The Visitor where Benjamin Sisko keeps appearing at different points in his son’s Jake’s life. That episode is touching and heartfelt. It also has remnants of the Star Trek The Next Generation episode 11001001 where a bunch of aliens steal the Enterprise to trick them into saving them from dying. It’s happened on countless episodes in every series.
The redundancy of the plot makes this one a fail in an otherwise stellar season. It’s as if the writers dusted off a script from season two and jammed it in for filler.
