MISTAKES/GOOFS

CONT: Riker's insistence that a father should always be honored are at odds with The Icarus Factor, where it is shown that he is on bad terms with his own father.
CONT: In The Hunted and The Most Toys it is shown that a transporter can deactivate a weapon in transit, but the Klingon captain materializes with a live weapon.
CONT: As the Klingon captain materializes on the bridge, Wof changes his position from being hunches over his tactical display to standing straight up. In the next shot, however, Worf is again hunched over his display.
