The least disliked episode of TNG - Final Round

"Reunion" again. FWIW, I never said it wasn't a good episode. But when you kill off an interesting female character mainly so you can get a reaction from her love interest -- well, that makes Brenny unhappy. And as @Takeru said above, what's the point of introducing a child for Worf if he's not going to raise the kid?

Second Chances. I had no idea this was considered a particularly good episode.

It was a toss up between Sins of the Father and Reunion but I'll give the vote towards Reunion for being the less interesting Klingon episode remaining on this list.

Sins of the Father. Good episode, not good enough to hang at these heights.

Let's start out with Sins of the Father, and I haven't discovered any new reasons since the last time I voted for it.

"Second Chances" gets my vote for the first time. While it was a good concept, and it was surprising they had Tom live at the end, it's not as great as the rest of the list.

Now that "Reunion" is gone, I'm back to "Sins" again (I noticed @NovaStar's point for "Sins" was accidentally removed, so restoring that)

Second Chances is out. Solid story overall, but the plot feels a little aimless at points.

I suppose I’ll go with Sins. A very good, and important episode, but I think the others all have something special to offer that’s somewhat unique to them.

"The First Duty" gets my vote this time. A great episode, and a terrific message, but it feels very preachy as I've gotten older.
 
This is getting tough! I would rewatch any of these, or all of them in a row. But I'll go with "Sins," at least partly because I have never shared fandom's fascination with Klingons.

Voting for First Duty. This is a very good episode but five of the seven left are in my top 20 episodes, so it's this or Sins of the Father.
