The writers were trying to capitalize on Michael Dorn’s and Suzie Plakson’s chemistry after the death of K’Ehleyr since both were played by the same actress. The fact that they never went ahead with the idea, makes it look to me like most of the ideas seemed forced and lame. But then it couldn’t have been any worse than the lame pairing of Word and Deanna in season 7.
