yeah. You're thinking of the ep where the lady's killed by an alien landmine, and her son--who reminds me of the original Darren on "Bewitched"--is left behind. Worf tries to care for him, but there's another race on that planet--one that's made of energy--who sees the tragedy and feels bad. One of their members keeps taking the deceased lady's form and trying to take the kid (Jeremy?) with her. At the end, once the alien realizes he's better off with humans than a fantasy world, Worf does some kind of blood brother ceremony.
Now that show *was* odd in that, after the kid's mother is killed, they *do* leave him alone in his quarters! There are scenes where he's literally sitting alone in the dark staring at pictures.
