Children of Time was the one where the Defiant passed through this energy field while inspecting a planet and found their descendants living there. Turns out that when they tried to leave, they were thrown back in time and crashed on the planet. Their descendants grew up and were waiting there when the Defiant entered orbit. Adventure ensued.

I really like that one (even if the setup was a bit contrived for DS9)....Odo basically dooms all the descendants just to save Kira.
Talk about love! Odo killed ALL THOSE PEOPLE just to save her!
Romantic in a twisted, mass murder kinda way.

Well, AlternateOdo did. Who hadn't gotten any in 200 years, so can you blame him? B)

Well, he didn't really kill them, did he? I mean, he just caused them not to have existed in the first place. Including himself (or, that portion of his life). So, how can you have a murder when neither the murderer nor the victims exist?

Tom Cruise should have stopped him BEFORE he committed the crime.

So if I travel back in time 20-odd years to when you are about to be created and start playing ELO music outside your parents bedroom with the intention of putting them off sex (and, indeed, almost anything), then that won't be murder?
Cool.

It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

What makes you think it was a bedroom?

Wait, so TSN wouldn't exist true (ie. the victim)...but what about the murderer, or are you saying in some weird way that if Tim didn't exist, you wouldn't exist either?

Tim and Liam are actually each other's long lost fathers.
