Victory Season 4

== Summary ==
Season 4 of Victory saw the show embracing the notion of serialized storylines. A recurring theme throughout the season is the notion of a brewing Duras-Romulan plot against the Federation, coupled with Connie Porter's effort to reclaim his family honor. Both storylines were introduced in VIC Season 3's "Sins of the Mother". Connie's discommendation is a major theme in "Family" and "The Drumhead", while his dishonor and the Duras-Romulan plot take center stage in the episodes "Reunion", "The Mind's Eye", and "Redemption".
A second recurring storyline in the season is the growth of Charlene Tate as a character. Her first and middle name are revealed in "Family", she marries a fellow lesbain in "S.E.G.A.'s Day", her past is revealed in "The Wounded", and her marriage is explored in "In Theory".
Following "The Best of Both Worlds" cliffhanger, Season 4 was also known as the soft family-themed season. Indeed, the first post-Borg episode deals with Wesley Crusher and Connie Porter's family, the second with S.E.G.A.'s. Worf's future adopted daughter, Alexa appears later in the season, as does Sharise Bryant's sister, and the Enterprise encounters an infant alien space entity.
