Kill Wesley
Exchange from Boston's CitiNet ST forum:
(Jerardi)
Did anyone see Saturdays episode of TNG? Are we going to have to
deal with another Weasley? Do Klingons suffer from the maternal
malaise? Is this new kid on the block (keep him off the bridge) going
to have big brother Worf watching over him? Last but not least, do
photon torpedos seat two?
(SusanBeth)
I really think you're panicking unnecessarily over Jeremy (Worf's
"adopted son") turning into Wesley Mark II -- the problem will
inevitably take care of itself within a couple of episodes. Tuning in
my crystal ball, here's a preview of the relevant scene:
**************************************************************
Captain Picard, Dr. Crusher and Data are walking down the
corridor when the door of Holodeck 3 whooshes open and Worf strides
out. He is festooned with scarves, belts, stoles, chains, medallions,
battle ribbons, earrings -- in brief, full Klingon ceremonial rig.
Cradled in his arms is the limp body of a child, swathed in similar
though less elaborate trappings.
Picard: Worf, what happened?!?
Worf [ grimacing mightily ]: I don't understand, sir.
[ Data and Dr. Crusher take the body from Worf and lower it gently
to the deck. Dr. Crusher pulls a mediscanner from her jacket and
runs it over the child. ]
Data: It's Jeremy, sir.
Dr. Crusher: He's dead, Jean-Luc.
Picard: What?! How?!
Dr. Crusher [ continuing to scan ] : There are massive internal
injuries as if he'd been crushed ....
Picard, to Worf: Was there an accident? Is there an alien intruder?
[ Worf just shakes his head, in a stunned manner. ]
Picard: Lieutenant Worf! Report!
Worf [ in dazed tone ] : We were just performing the K'Halti-Dur.
Picard: The Kahal what?
Data: The K'Halti-Dur, sir. That's the second rite of Klingon
warrior bonding. During it each man proves he is worthy of the bond
by demonstrating both his ability to endure pain and his strength as a
fighter. Each in turn strikes the other as hard as he can, and the
other must not flinch or turn--
Dr. Crusher: Worf!! You didn't! Human children are MUCH more fragile
than Klingon childr--
Picard: Lt. Worf, surely you realized how inappropriate--
Troi [ off screen but coming nearer ]: I sense confusion. I sense
loss. I sense horror. I sense disbelief. I sense pain. I sense--
[ As the litany continues, Worf seems to come to life. He
flushes with rage and runs down the corridor out of sight. Their
voices continue from off stage ]
Worf: YOU! It is YOUR fault!
Troi: I sense anger.
Worf: You said Jeremy felt neglected!
Troi: I sense rage.
Worf: You said I should spend some quality time with him!
Troi: I sense hostility.
Worf: You said I should treat him as I would a real younger brother!
Troi: I sense dang--
[ We hear a dull popping sound followed by a thud, then Deanna's
head rolls down the corridor into view. ]
****************************************************************
See? Don't Worry. Be Happy. :-)

THAT'S WHAT I WANT TO SEE! EMOTION! COMEDY! DRAMA! IRONY!
SPLATTER!

Actually I've seen it in rather a different way, (though your
prediction seems more interesting than what I came up with). Rug-rat
II and Wesley have an arguement over some childish nonsense, they
decide to duel, Wesley choses a saber and Rug-rat II choses an ancient
.38 police special. You know..... boys will be boys. Let the new
Rug-rat serve the Federation in a truly constructive manner.
(JoeMason)
It has possibilities, but one of them MIGHT survive . . . How
about using tactical nukes for the duel? (That'd take care of a LOT
of personnel problems!)
(DMoisen)
We could fix it so that Wesley wins, then in a fit of rage Worf
could rip Wesley's arms out, and beat him to death with the wet ends
(all in accordance with the ancient Klingoneese practice of Koor-mou,
that is, to make the one responsible for a death mourn for the
deceased). Religious freedom is sooooo important to the Federation.
