The Dresden Files > DF Spoilers
Anyone else... disappointed? [PT/BG spoilers]
Arjan:
“Destiny is a stone cold bitch”
It shows real creativity if you can bend the river and make a new reality. Both Mab and Gard warned that caution was advised because it always bites back. The discussion in BG refers back to the one in DB and also to the one with Uriel in the Warrior short story.

--- Quote ---Now the question is whether in finale our Harry will have to gather team of Vampire Harry, Hexenwulf Harry, Denarian Harry and Knight of the Cross Harry to fight against Outsiders multiverse invasion - or maybe he will have to kill all other Harry's like Jet Li to become supreme Harry Dresden - sum of all possible Dresdens - with certain knowledge of all possible outcomes of being Dresden.

Since Jim has sighted in the past the episode of Star Trek called, Mirror Mirror as his inspiration. I will give you another that might apply better. It is another transporter accident, Kirk is split into to men, one, his good gentle side, the other aggressive, cruel, angry... Turns out that one side cannot survive without the other side and he is in real danger of dying if they don't get both halves together again. The moral of the episode was it took both sides of Kirk to make him the man he is. So while cool that "Darthdresden" might pop out, Harry might come to the realization that that aspect of him is as vital as Dresden of the Good Heart.. If he is going to be an effective leader in the BAT, he needs both sides of himself.
Dina:
I like that.

Mirror Mirror was never about free will and choice. It was a fun look at an evil Trek universe. The episode you offer is about decision making. And very subtly is taking issue with how Spock was constructed as a character. The only episode that dealt with choice and free will was The City On The Edge Of Forever. It looked at how changing one event with the best of intentions creates great evil over time. I like the idea of an evil Harry.

But this is more Butterfly Effect one, I think Mirror Mirror will delve more into moral side of things with Jim trying to show how believably Dresden could be corrupted.
