  Stardate 43957.2:  The Enterprise crew rescues the injured lone survivor of a

    develops a rapport with Doctor Crusher and the rest of the crew, but his
    recovery almost seems too miraculous and it is discovered that not only is
    John Doe recuperating with incredible speed, but he is mutating as well.
    But his presence on the Enterprise is seen by all as a benefit; the
    Crushers grow close to Doe, Geordi grows close to another Enterprise crew
    member, and all seems well with the exception of Doe's occasional mutative
    side effects until Sunad - obviously of the same race as Doe - arrives to
    take Doe, who he claims to be a dangerous criminal, prisoner.  But it is
    soon revealed that John Doe is an outcast from his own society because he
    has been exiled by the normal elements of his people who fear his impending
    mutation into a higher life form.  When Sunad boards the Enterprise to take
    Doe, Doe completes his mutation and, forgiving his persecutors, sends Sunad
    back to his ship unharmed and departs from the Enterprise by himself.

  Stardate 43989.1:  Lt. Commander Shelby, a tactical advisor from Starfleet
    with her eye on promotion to a first officer - perhaps of the Enterprise -
    joins the crew as they investigate the latest planet victimized by the Borg.
    After another Federation planet is attacked, the Enterprise sets off in
    pursuit of the Borg.  During the flight, Riker learns of Shelby's
    impetuousity and the possibility that he himself is long overdue to command
    a starship of his own.  The Borg intercepts the Enterprise and does critical
    damage, and the Enterprise enters a nebula to evade capture.  When some
    repairs are made, the Enterprise tries to escape but is captured by the
    Borg.  They board the Enterprise, kidnap Captain Picard, and warp toward
    Earth.  The Enterprise follows the Borg through Federation space until
    Geordi can't keep the warp engines up to speed.  Shelby leads an away team
    to the Borg vessel where she, Worf, Data and Dr. Crusher sabotage the Borg's
    internal power network.  They are attacked and hold off their attackers
    until the Borg adapt to generate their own shields against the crew's hand
    phasers.
       And Captain Picard is found - no longer human, modified into a Borg.  The
    away team returns to the Enterprise, leaving Riker with a momentous decision
    - he must use a variation of the Enterprise's deflectors to disrupt the Borg
    and possibly kill Picard.

  Stardate 44001.4:  The main deflector dish has no effect on the Borg because,
    having assimilated Picard and converted him into their spokesman, Locutus,
    the Borg know now every strategy and contingency that Picard had been
    informed of before his kidnapping.  Riker is promoted to Captain by Admiral
    Hanson, who then leads a fleet of 40 starships to Wolf 359 to confront the
    Borg, but the fleet's efforts are in vain - every starship is annihilated.
    Riker orders a cunning attack consisting of awkward strategies that Picard
    would never have carried out or expected, and an away team kidnaps Locutus
    and returns him to the Enterprise.  Data then links up to Locutus to access
    the Borg communication network, and every approach he takes to disarm the
    Borg down fails until the Borg arrive at Earth to begin their domination of
    the Federation.  Data triggers the Borg regeneration process, putting every
    Borg to "sleep," but this also triggers the self-destruction of the Borg
    ship.  Picard is freed from the Borg, Shelby returns to Starfleet to rebuild
    the fleet, and Riker remains on the Enterprise to continue serving as first
    officer.  However, staring out the window of his ready room, Picard's face
    indicates that all is not well...
       Of course, it was not even thought of at the time of this episode's
    production, but one of the very few survivors of the Borg attack at Wolf 359
    later turns up in his own series:  Commander Sisko of "Deep Space Nine," the
    premiere episode of which features scenes of the battle between the Borg and
    the Federation that was mentioned in this episode.

    after his older brother played a cruel practical joke on him, the Enterprise
    is suddenly diverted from her course and headed for an unknown,
    out-of-the-way planet.  What no one realizes until it's too late is that
    Data is responsible for this, having been taken over by a homing signal that
    leads him to his creator, Dr. Soong, who had been thought dead for many
    years.  Data has been called home to be given an upgrade - emotions - but

    him, or face the possibility of starting a war.

    former home on a sStarbase to retire after the recent death of his wife.  He
    mentions his slowly deteriorating memory, a thought which remains on Dr.
    Crusher's mind when she visits engineering to watch Wesley finish a warp
    field experiment.  But when the Enterprise becomes ready to leave the
    starbase, Wes hastily finishes his experiment, but his mother completely
    disappears.  She, however, is on the Enterprise - so she thinks - and she
    helplessly watches the entire crew disappear one by one.  She is, in fact,
    inside a warp bubble, and the real crew on the real Enterprise must enlist
    the help of the mysterious alien known as the Traveler to pull Dr. Crusher
    back into reality before her warp bubble shrinks into nothingness.
       Originally considered as a shipboard B-plot for the episode "Family,"
    this story was given its own episode so as not to distract attention from

    III, requiring an away team to visit.  They find two "cadres" - urban gangs
    so large they have replaced the government and now conduct their street
    fighting on a warlike scale - one of which is willing to help find the

    battlecruiser occupied by K'mpec, leader of the High Council of the Klingon
    Empire.  With him is K'ehleyr, Worf's former lover, who has visited the
    Enterprise before.  This time she acts as Picard's aide in a role K'mpec has
    chosen for him - the neutral arbiter to oversee the handover of the dying
    K'mpec's powerful position to one of two contenders: Duras, whose cover-up
    of his father's actions cost Worf his honor; or Gowron, a Klingon "outsider"
    about whom little is known.  But sabotage, including the assassination of
    K'mpec, begins to point toward evidence of Romulan involvement...and Worf
    must deal with the possibility that his son (by K'ehleyr) may lose his honor

    rescued via transporter, while the Enterprise loses all trace of Riker.
       Riker awakens in the sick bay of the Enterprise, told by an older Dr.
    Crusher that sixteen years have passed since that event, and that a virus he
    contracted on the mission to Alpha Onias III recently became active, causing
    him to lose all memory back to that event.  He is now the ship's Captain,
    Data is First Officer, and Picard - now an Admiral - is completing the final
    arrangements for the signing of a peace treaty between the Romulans and the
    Federation, and Riker has a teenage son as well.  But glaring mistakes soon
    point out to Riker that this scenario is not, in fact, happening, and that
    it's all a nearly perfect simulation.  But the question remains - who's
    behind it, the Romulans...or someone else?

  Stardate 44313.0:  Geordi is delighted to welcome Dr. Leah Brahms aboard the
    Enterprise, having already gotten to know her - so he thinks - through a
    friendly holographic simulation in a crisis situation in the past.  But the
    real Dr. Brahms is nothing like her holodeck alter-ego.  Meanwhile, the
    Enterprise inadvertantly destroys a free-floating space creature and helps
    to deliver its newborn child, but the child thinks the Enterprise is its
    mother and attaches itself to the hull to "nurse" energy from the power
    reserves - and Geordi and Dr. Brahms are left to find the solution to this
    problem...if they can cooperate with each other.

  Stardate 44631.2:  The missing starship Brittain is found by the Enterprise,
    but Riker and an away team find that the entire crew of the Brittain went
    berserk and murdered one another, leaving a single survivor - a Betazoid
    who can't speak and whose telepathic "ramblings" to Troi are puzzling.  When
    the Enterprise is immobilized by a dangerous natural phenomenon, no one
    suspects that the survivor's riddles may have some meaning, and members of
    the crew begin hallucinating slowly edging toward the same kind of madness
    that drove the Brittain's crew to kill themselves...

  Stardate 44664.5:  Starfleet officers who were on an away team five years ago
    investigating a mysterious migration of previous explorers to the planet
    Tarchannen 3 are beginning to mutate into alien life forms and migrate to
    the planet themselves.  Among them are Lt. Commander Leitjen, visiting the
    Enterprise, and Geordi La Forge.  While Dr. Crusher keeps Leitjen in sick
    bay when her mutation begins, Geordi's mutation goes unchecked and, more
    alien than human, he beams to the surface to join the other members of the
    away team, who have fully mutated.

  Stardate 44704.2:  Shortly after very nervously performing a scene from
    "Cyrano de Bergerac" with Dr. Crusher, Lt. Barclay is assigned to accompany
    Geordi on a close examination, via shuttle, of an alien probe that has
    impeded the functioning of a subspace telescope array.  But after being
    scanned, the probe somehow singles Barclay out to receive a massive mental
    "upgrade," doing away with the lieutenant's legendary reclusiveness and
    shyness, and replacing those traits of his personality with knowledge and
    learning abilities beyond human experience...and arrogance.

  Stardate 44741.9:  Picard is readying a speech on the subject of the planet
    Tagus 3, whose archaelogical digs are off-limits to outsiders, to be
    delivered to a group of distinguished archaeologists, and is surprised to
    find that Vash, a very fondly remembered acquaintance from his visit to
    Risa, is present as well, no doubt to fulfill her nefarious urge to go
    treasure-seeking.  She and Picard seem to be able to agree on nothing, which
    catches the attention of Q, who, to force Picard to admit that he does
    indeed love Vash, sends the crew, Vash, and even himself, into Sherwood
    Forest.  Picard, of course, becomes Robin Hood, his crew become Robin's
    merry men, Q becomes Guy of Gisbourne, and Vash, naturally, is the damsel
    in distress...a role she doesn't play willingly, or, indeed, correctly!
       Clive Revill, the Sheriff of Nottingham in this story, also has another
    well-known science fiction saga in his resume: he provided the voice (and a
    shimmering but fuzzy image) of the Galactic Emperor in "The Empire Strikes
    Back" in 1980 (Ian McDiarmid took that role over in 1983's "Return of the
    Jedi" when the Emperor finally made a personal appearance in the saga).

    committed by Klingon exchange officer J'Ddan, Starfleet sends Admiral Nora
    Satie out of retirement to investigate the possibility of a Klingon faction
    cooperating with Romulans.  But Satie goes beyond that, accusing a shy
    junior crewman of Romulan collaboration and even accusing Captain Picard of
    aiding Romulans and the Borg.
       This episode begins a build-up to the season finale dealing with a
    possible Romulan-Klingon alliance.  It was also the last episode of "The

  Stardate 44805.3:  Kalon scientist Dr. Timicin has beamed aboard the
    Enterprise to travel to a star much like his planet's own sun to conduct
    tests of a modified photon torpedo that could reduce the level of solar
    activity - something that needs to be done within decades, or Kalon II's sun
    will explode, eradicating his people.  When the test fails, Timicin
    continues, but he is due back on Kalon II so he may carry out the Resolution
    - a traditional Kalon ceremony in which one ends one's life by painless
    suicide at sixty.  Lwaxana Troi, also visiting the Enterprise, tries to
    convince Timicin to continue living, although his request for asylum from
    his people could result in war.

  Stardate 44821.3:  Ambassador Odan is being transported to the Peliar Zel
    system to attempt eleventh-hour mediation between civilizations on two
    moons.  One society's new power source may mean long-term pollution and
    deterioration of the other society's world.  Odan intends to settle the
    dispute, and on the two week trip he and Dr. Crusher have fallen in love.
    But when a faction of radicals attacks the shuttlecraft Odan has insisted
    upon taking to the surface of one of the moons - he refuses to use the
    transporter - Odan is severely injured and is forced to reveal that he is,
    in fact, an alien parasite within a humanoid host body.  When his people
    cannot send another host in time to save the parasite's life, and a
    countdown to war begins on the two moons, Riker risks his own life to serve
    as a temporary host.

  Stardate 44885.5:  En route to an artificial intelligence conference on Risa,
    Geordi, alone in a shuttlepod, is kidnapped by Romulans, who send a "copy"
    of him to Risa.  Under the supervision of a female Romulan who remains in
    shadows at all times, Geordi is tortured and brainwashed to obey, without
    question, instructions transmitted on a certain wavelength to his VISOR.
    When he returns to the Enterprise - with "memories" of his trip implanted
    into his mind - Picard deals with a belligerent Klingon colony governor who
    accuses the Federation of assisting a rebel political faction.  In fact,
    however, there is another Klingon responsible for this, and he is relaying
    Romulan instructions to Geordi, who may unwittingly become an assassin...

    human feelings, and then attempts to emulate emotions.  In the meantime,

  Stardate 44995.3:  The Enterprise is summoned to the Klingon homeworld so
    Picard may fulfill his final duty as arbiter of the succession of power
    there.  Gowron intercepts the Enterprise before it arrives, warning Picard
    that Klingon civil war is brewing.
       Gowron, about to take control of the empire, is challenged by Lursa and
    B'etor, the sisters of Duras, who offer his son Toral as an alternative
    candidate for the throne.  Picard, attempting to remain completely neutral
    in order to avoid accusations that the Federation is taking a hand in
    Klingon politics, denies Toral's challenge.  Those who would the family of
    Duras attack Gowron's ship as he and Worf discuss the redemption of Worf's
    family honor.  Worf's brother, Kurn, who now leads four squadrons of Klingon
    ships, saves Gowron from the attackers, but the victory is only temporary.
    With the revelation that Kurn is also a member of Worf's family, Gowron
    returns Worf's honor to him.
       Gowron then requests Federation assistance from Picard, who refuses,
    citing the recent attack as strictly internal Klingon matters to be dealt
    with only by the Empire, without Federation interference.  Worf requests a
    leave of absence to stay temporarily on Gowron's ship.  When Picard denies
    permission to do this, Worf resigns from Starfleet and leaves anyway.
       After Worf departs, the Enterprise leaves the Klingon homeworld to avoid
    any further involvement.  But on the Klingon planet, in the quarters of
    Lursa and B'etor, a Romulan officer in the shadows steps forth and predicts
    that Picard may return because "humans have a way of showing up when you
    least expect them."  And this is very true, for the words come from a woman
    who bears a very strong resemblance to Tasha Yar...in Romulan uniform.

  Stardate 45020.4:  War erupts between the forces of Gowron and those of the
    family of Duras.  The forces of Duras are winning even after Gowron's fleets
    destroy all of their possible supply bases.
       Picard plans to take starships the Klingon/Romulan border to act as a
    blockade against Romulan aid to the Duras followers.  Various Enterprise
    officers are assigned to other ships, most notably Data as captain of the
    starship Sutherland, whose first officer, Hobson, objects to serving under
    an android commander.
       Commander Sela, half-human, half-Romulan daughter of Tasha Yar, demands
    that the Federation leave the border.  Guinan reveals that Sela is the
    product of the Tasha Yar who was sent to the Enterprise-C by Picard.
       Gowron launches a surprise attack on their enemies.  Lursa and B'etor
    send a plea for aid.  Sela tries to slip past the Sutherland, but Data foils
    the plan and the Romulans are revealed and forced to retreat, leaving Lursa
    and B'etor helpless.  They escape and abandon Toral, leaving him to Gowron.
    Gowron offers Worf a chance to slay Toral, but Worf chooses not to judge
    Toral by his father's actions and rejoins the crew of the Enterprise.
       As later noted when they unexpectedly arrived at Deep Space Nine, the
    Duras sisters are listed by the Klingon government as renegades, but still
    remain at large with at least one ship of their own, trying to raise capital
    for a second grab at the throne of the Klingon Empire.

  Stardate 45047.2:  The Enterprise and a Tamarian ship rendezvous at El-Adrel
    IV and Tamarian Captain Dathon opens communications.  The Tamarians speak
    incomprehensibly, using English words laced with names from their culture.
    After the contact fails, Dathon and his first officer argue over Dathon's
    statement, "Darmok and Jelad at Tenagra."  Dathon vanishes, and Picard is
    kidnapped via transporter.  Both are beamed to the planet, where Dathon
    attempts to communicate again.  Picard deciphers the language, finding that
    it is based on Tamarian folklore and metaphors.  "Darmok and Jelad at
    Tenagra" refers to two heroes who traveled separately to a distant island,
    defeated a mighty beast, and left together.  El-Adrel is home to such a
    creature, and Dathon hopes that the Tamarians and the Federation can begin
    a friendship by likewise defeating a common enemy.  When the beast attacks,
    Picard is immobilized by an attempt to rescue him through interference
    projected from the Tamarian ship, while Dathon is mortally wounded.  Picard
    can now negotiate in the Tamarian language - if he survives the creature's
    next attack.

  Stardate 45076.3:  Admiral Kennelly assigns the Enterprise to help resolve
    tensions with the Bajora, an isolated, once-advanced race whose territory
    was long ago taken by the Cardassians.  Since then, the Bajora have carried
    out terrorist attacks on the Cardassians, and now, according to Kennelly,
    the Bajora have traveled outside their own system and attacked a Federation
    outpost.  The Enterprise is to contact the Bajoran terrorist leader Orta and
    offer serious discussions after years of sympathetic talk and no action.
    Ensign Ro Laren, herself a Bajoran - recently court-martialed but pulled out
    of prison by Kennelly - is assigned to the Enterprise.  Ro is an abrasive
    officer who does not want to be on the ship or the mission.  She does,
    however, tell Picard to contact Keeve, leader of a Bajoran colony that has
    no technology and isn't even able to adequately feed or clothe its own
    people.  On another planet, Picard contacts Orta - after being abducted by
    Orta's guards - and discovers that the Bajora do not have the resources to
    attack anything beyond their own system.  Ro then reveals to Picard that
    Kennelly is aware of this, and that she and the Enterprise are being used by
    the Cardassians to quietly get rid of the Bajora "threat" by escorting them
    straight into the Cardassians' line of fire.

    The Enterprise returns and finds that the planet has been left barren.  The
    colonists are rescued, and the crew, joined by Dr. Marr, investigates the
    damage.  Marr, whose son was killed by the Entity long ago, believes that
    Data, like his "brother," is aiding the Entity.  During the investigation,
    Marr is convinced that Data is not responsible for the attack and finds that
    his memories of his home include memories of the colonists who died there.
    She asks him to recite some of her son's diary and decides she must avenge

    Worf, and a pregnant Keiko relax in Ten Forward, and O' Brien and Troi
    perform bridge duties.  When an undetectable object collides with the ship,
    emergency systems isolate everyone where they are.  Picard is injured and
    must rely on the scared children; Riker orders Data to risk his life to
    reach engineering; Worf must deliver Keiko's baby when she goes into labor;
    Geordi and Beverly are caught between a fire and several tanks of unstable
    fuel; and Troi is trapped on the bridge with a minimal crew and Ensign Ro is
    all too ready to point out the worst case scenario: unless the ship's

  Stardate 45233.1:  One of the Federation's most valued advisors, Spock, has
    been seen on Romulus.  Picard is assigned to go to Romulus undercover and
    find out if Spock has defected from the Federation.  The Enterprise goes to
    Vulcan, where Picard visits Sarek, and Riker investigates the recovered
    wreckage of a Vulcan ship.  Sarek, near death, suggests that Spock may have
    gone to visit Pardek, a Romulan peace advocate Spock met at the Khitomer
    peace conference decades ago.
       The next stop is the Klingon planet, where Picard borrows a cloaked ship
    to cross the Neutral Zone.  Picard and Data, equipped with disguises, head
    for Romulus.  Federation shipyard operator Dokachen assists Riker in the
    wreckage investigation.  They find an unidentified ship receiving supplies
    from the shipyard without authorization.  The ship fires at the Enterprise,
    which fires back at minimum power - yet the other vessel explodes.
       Data and Picard, having just received news of Sarek's death, beam to
    Romulus and find Pardek, but before they can follow him, guards stop them
    and lead them to Pardek...and they discover that Spock is indeed alive and
    well on Romulus.

  Stardate 45245.8:  Spock is promoting the idea of reunification of Romulus and
    Vulcan.  Pardek gains Spock an audience with the Proconsul, Neral, who says
    he will endorse reunification.  Picard is skeptical, to the annoyance of
    Spock, who thinks Picard's impression of him has been colored by Sarek.
    Neral is plotting with Sela to invade Vulcan with stolen Vulcan ships in the
    guise of a peace envoy and escorts.
       Riker gets the truth about the vessel destroyed in the shipyard out of
    the Ferengi accomplice of the ship's pilot.  An intact Vulcan ship was to be
    delivered to the Neutral Zone border to Romulans for the invasion fleet.
       Picard, Spock and Data are taken prisoner when betrayed by Pardek.  Sela
    prepares a hologram of Spock to read a statement about the peaceful mission
    of the Romulans.  When Sela leaves to see the ships off, Data and Spock
    program the hologram to warn the Federation.  The Enterprise intercepts the
    ships, but a Romulan Warbird destroys the Vulcan ships instead of allowing
    any evidence to remain of the invasion plot.
       Picard, Data and Spock escape, and rejoin Spock's Romulan followers in a
    new hiding place.  Spock insists on staying so that he may continue to
    influence opinions on Romulus, even if only on a small scale.

    crew's activities.  Refusing to answer any questions about the future,
    Rasmussen watches while attempts to salvage the planet almost worsen its
    condition.  When Picard must make a decision that could destroy everyone on
    the planet or save them, he asks Rasmussen to tell him what history says
    about the outcome of the Enterprise's mission - but the time traveler
    carefully avoids answering...and Picard wonders if Rasmussen is really
    protecting history, or if he even knows anything about the future at all.

  Stardate 45376.3:  The Enterprise is participating in a test of a new method
    of propulsion that would render warp engines obsolete by generating a wave
    that a starship would "ride" like a surfboard.  While preparing for the
    test, Worf receives a message from Helena that she and Worf's son have come
    to visit.  When they beam aboard, Alexander believes that he is staying on
    the Enterprise, and Helena tells Worf that Alexander has been disobedient
    and even untruthful, which is proven when, after enrolling in the ship's
    school, he steals a model on a field trip.  Picard orders part of the ship
    to be evacuated after a freak accident with the propulsion experiment, but
    he and Worf discover that Alexander, once again in defiance of Worf's
    instructions, has gone to that section of the ship.

    is adrift inside a dark matter cluster.  A single survivor, young Timothy,
    is rescued by Data, and is the only means of finding out what happened since
    the logs of the disaster were also damaged.  Timothy tries to emulate Data's
    lack of emotions in order to overcome his own confused feelings, but stops
    short of telling the truth about what happened - which is what Picard needs
    to know as the Enterprise follows the Vico's fateful course.

  Stardate 45429.3:  A party of telepathic Ullians is visiting the Enterprise,
    ready to share their unique gift of probing into the mind and recovering
    lost memories.  During their visit, Troi reminisces about an earlier
    encounter with Riker, and then her memory is invaded by an image of one of
    the Ullians.  Dr. Crusher finds Troi in a coma, and she and Riker are the
    next to have their memories invaded.  Data and Geordi try to track down the
    mystery ailment that has rendered key officers comatose - and discover that
    there may be no disease involved and one of the Ullians could be behind the

    of unexplored space, the Enterprise crew discovers a colony of genetically
    engineered humans on Moab IV, a planet which will be devastated by the
    stellar fragment's close pass.  Although his advisor Martin is hostile to
    the idea of introducing strangers to the perfectly balanced society, Conor,
    the colony's leader, allows an Enterprise awat team to visit Moab IV.  Troi
    and Conor enter a relationship, while engineer Hannah Bates works alongside
    Geordi to strive for an impossible discovery - moving the massive chunk of
    star debris without evacuating - and thus imbalancing - the colony.  Even
    after using an technological offshoot of Geordi's VISOR to release Moab IV
    from its death sentence, the Enterprise crew discovers that it may have now

    crew's memories of who they are and everyone else around them, as well as
    specific computer files containing the crew records, are erased, although
    everyone still remembers their Starfleet skills, although others react
    differently without any knowledge of who they once were or what they did:
    Worf assumes command of the ship, while Riker and Ensign Ro are attracted
    to one another in a way neither would normally admit.  Geordi eventually
    recovers the computer's crew manifest containing names, ranks and duties,
    identifying Commander Kieran MacDuff - who mysteriously appeared as soon as
    the crew's memories were damaged - as first officer.  The computer finally
    divulges the basics of the Enterprise's current mission: to seek out and
    destroy the main base of the Lysian Alliance, with whom, according to the
    records, the Federation has been at war for many years.  Although some
    members of the crew begin to question their orders as well as the unusualy
    selective damage done to their memories and the computer, Commander MacDuff
    insists that the ship press on the attack.

  Stardate 45571.2:  Investigating a 200-year-old Starfleet distress signal
    emanating from a planet which happens to be the last known location of the
    starship Essex, the Enterprise sends a shuttle through the planet's stormy
    atmosphere.  The shuttle, with Riker, Troi and Data on board, crash lands,
    resulting in Riker breaking an arm.  Chief O' Brien beams down with a device
    to boost the transporter signal so the away team can be rescued, but all
    four are struck by a lightning-like discharge and all but Riker are knocked
    out.  Riker operates the transporter booster and returns them to the
    Enterprise, where Troi, O' Brien and Data take over the ship under the
    influence of aliens from the planet.  They enter Ten Forward and take
    hostages, announcing that they are actually the spirits of the Essex crew.
    Demanding that their physical remains be recovered from the planet and
    returned to Earth, Troi - apparently taken over by the dead captain of the
    Essex - threatens to kill the hostages (including Keiko and her baby), and
    Picard's attempts to negotiate accomplish nothing, aside from convincing him
    that the terrorists are not who they claim to be.

    Worf's injury as a perfect chance to test her new device, which can - in
    theory - replicate entire organs after scanning the DNA of the original.
    Crusher disagrees, however, citing Russell's device as experimental at best,
    and refusing to allow Russell to operate.  When Worf - claiming that life as
    an invalid would be a dishonorable burden to he and his family - begins to
    try to enlist Riker's help in committing suicide, Crusher is forced to let
    Russell attempt to restore Worf's spinal cord - an operation that could
    easily end the Klingon's life, leaving many of the crew concerned for Worf
    as well as Alexander.

    from which energy emissions cannot escape.  Riker and J'naii pilot Soren
    take an Enterprise shuttlecraft into the null zone to investigate, a trip on
    which Soren makes Riker uneasy by her unusual curiosity about human
    sexuality, and says that such practices among J'naii would be considered
    repugnant.  Preparing for another trip, Soren reveals to Riker that she is
    one of a group of outlaws among the J'naii who embrace the "ancient" genders
    of male and female.  After rescuing the J'naii shuttle crew and returning
    them safely, the Enterprise crew is invited to a celebration on the J'naii
    planet, during which Riker and Soren take their relationship a good deal
    further.  When the other J'naii discover this, Soren is taken into custody
    so her "deviance" can be "cured," and Riker decides that he must disobey the
    prime directive to rescue Soren from her own society.

  Stardate 45652.1:  Investigating a previously unexplored area of space, the
    Enterprise crew expects nothing but the normal routine of the unknown.
    After Dr. Crusher makes a mysterious complaint about hearing voices in her
    quarters, a time disturbance is detected close to the ship.  After Picard
    orders Ro to distance the Enterprise from the phenomenon, all power is lost
    and a Federation starship emerges from the rift, colliding with the
    Enterprise, and the engine core, after the warp engines take critical
    damage, is destablized.  Picard orders all hands to evacuate, and the

       Investigating an unexplored area of space, the Enterprise crew expects
    nothing but the normal routine of the unknown.  Shortly after Dr. Crusher
    and Riker begin to notice that events are repeating themselves, Dr. Crusher
    complains about hearing voices in her quarters.  A time disturbance is
    detected close to the ship.  After Picard orders Ro to distance the
    Enterprise from the phenomenon, all power is lost and a Federation starship
    emerges from the rift, colliding with the Enterprise, and the engine core,
    after the warp engines take critical damage, is destablized.  Picard orders
    all hands to evacuate, and the Enterprise blasts herself to bits.
       Investigating an unexplored area of space, the Enterprise crew expects
    nothing but the normal routine of the unknown.  After Riker, Worf and Dr.
    Crusher notice that events are repeating, Crusher waits for and records the
    voices in her quarters at the same time Geordi's sensors detect an anomaly.
    Data analyzes the voices and reports that they are the voices of the crew.
    The Enterprise has entered a time loop in which all events that occurred
    since the ship's actual entry recur, and the "afterimages" of the events
    trapped in the loop allow the crew to know what is about to happen to them
    again.  Data plans to leave himself a "message" that he will receive in a
    "subconscious" way, but before he can get far with his idea, a disturbance
    is detected near the ship.  Picard orders Ro to distance the Enterprise
    from the phenomenon, and then all power is lost and the starship emerges
    from the rift, colliding with the Enterprise, and the engine core is
    destablized.  Picard orders evacuation as Data transmits his message to the
    Data in the next time loop, and the Enterprise blasts herself to bits.
       Dr. Crusher notices events repeating once more.  Data receives his own
    message just as Crusher once again records the voices in her quarters.  The
    time disturbance appears, and Picard hesitantly repeats his order to stand
    off from the rift.  The power drain occurs again, as does the emergence of
    the other ship.  Data suddenly changes the chain of events by taking a
    course of action the crew has rejected in every time loop up till now, and
    the collision is avoided.  The Enterprise has been caught in the time loop
    for nearly 18 days, but upon contacting the captain of the other ship, it
    is obvious that he and his crew have been repeating their collision with the
    Enterprise for over 70 years.

    by Nova Squadron, the Academy's elite flight group, including Wes Crusher.
    As the Enterprise arrives, news reaches Picard and Dr. Crusher that Nova
    Squadron's five planes have collided during a practice maneuver, injuring
    four of the pilots and killing one of them.
       An inquiry is launched into the accident, and squadron leader Locarno -
    backed up by Wes and the other cadets - testifies that blame lies on Cadet
    Joshua Albert, who died.  Picard, while the investigation is underway, pays
    a visit to his old friend Boothby, the Academy gardener since Picard's days
    as a cadet.  Wise old Boothby, and later Picard himself, begin to wonder if
    perhaps the surviving cadets of Nova Squadron aren't simply diverting the
    responsibility for their own mistake.

  Stardate not given:  The Enterprise is on an urgent mission to destroy an
    asteroid on a collision course with an inhabited planet.  The asteroid is
    obliterated, but a metal-consuming substance riding the asteroid transfers
    to the hull of the Enterprise.  Later, Worf and Alexander argue in Troi's
    office about their latest father-son dispute over the family rules, and as
    if that experience isn't enough of a headache, Lwaxana Troi beams aboard on
    her way to get married to Campio, a member of another planet's royalty (and
    Mrs. Troi reluctantly admits she hasn't actually met him yet), and she
    begins to interfere with Worf's relationship with Alexander, trying to show
    the boy how to revel in rebelling against authority.  While Counselor Troi
    tells her mother not to intercede in Worf's family affairs, a problem is
    discovered with the ship's systems, caused by the metal "virus" (of which
    the crew is not yet aware).  Mrs. Troi later reveals to Alexander that she
    isn't entirely sure about her upcoming marriage to Campio (who beams aboard
    with an ever-present aide whose duty seems to be that of making sure all of
    Campio's actions are as neutral and inoffensive as possible).  The life
    support systems come under attack by the erosive substance, and when Picard
    orders the ship to warp to the nearest starbase, the engines are the next
    target of the virus, jeopardizing the Enterprise and everyone aboard.

    conflict.  But when a Ferengi shuttlecraft is spotted in need of immediate
    help, Picard is forced to pick up the two Ferengi, who actually faked their
    emergency.  The nosy Ferengi damage Bre'em's cocoon, which melts away to
    reveal the lovely empath Kamala, who grabs the attention of every man in her
    sight, and initially thinks that Picard's authoritarian demeanor makes him
    her future mate.  Kamala is being transported as the property of Bre'em's
    government, and she is to be delivered - as a gift - to Alrik of Volt.  Dr.
    Crusher convinces Picard that the ambassador's treatment of Kamala as an
    object is inhumane, but the possible results of allowing Kamala free roam of
    the ship could be more risky than transporting her as cargo, since her very
    accurate empathic ability allows her to become the perfect mate for whomever
    she spends the most time with, whether that happens to be Riker, Worf, a

    is talking about her imaginary friend Isabella.  Ensign Sutter, whose
    Starfleet career hasn't allowed him to stay in one place long enough for
    Clara to make any friends, is concerned that Clara's insistence on
    Isabella's existence is abnormal, but Troi doesn't think it is anything to
    worry about.  An energy form enters the Enterprise, it materializes just as
    Clara imagines Isabella and begins to have Clara show it around the ship.
    Meanwhile, other energy-beings like "Isabella" begin to weave a web of
    strands around the ship to slow it down so they can feed off its power

    a sense of individuality, starting by nicknaming him "Hugh."  The crew is
    preparing a plan to send Hugh back with a computer virus that would unravel
    the Borg from the inside out, but some of the crew's conscience begins to

  Stardate 45959.1:  An excavation team on Earth summons the Enterprise to
    Earth, claiming to have found evidence of extraterrestrial visitors to the
    planet in the 19th century.  Picard and Data are shown an astonishing
    artifact unearthed near Starfleet Academy: the head of Data, although he -
    with his head intact - is still serving on the Enterprise.  As Data
    contemplates the news, Geordi traces a micro-organism discovered in
    fossilized form mear Data's head to the planet Davidia II.  The Enterprise
    heads for that world immediately, where an away team beams down without
    Data, who believes the others are overreacting to his impending fate.  Troi
    sense life on the planet, although no beings are visible.  Data, whose head
    contains a component that could allow him to see the invisible life forms,
    beams down and phases into the beings' plane, reporting many large humanoid
    beings and an alien of some sort.  Data is then snatched through time - to
    San Francisco in the late 1800s.  He immediately begins making preparations
    to continue the exploration he was conducting on Davidia II after winning
    big in a local poker game.  Elsewhere in the city, two humans - or at least
    aliens in the guise of humans - patrol the streets, finding a beggar and
    using a camouflaged device to steal the energy from his body, killing him.
       Meanwhile, Picard readies another away team when Guinan gives him cryptic
    advice, telling him he must join the away team.  Data, in the 19th century,
    discovers that Guinan is on Earth in the same time period, though centuries
    before she met any of the Enterprise crew.  Also present at the social
    function where Data finds Guinan is one Samuel Clemens, better known as Mark
    Twain, who overhears Data and Guinan discussing Data's real origins.  On
    Davidia II, the away team replicates Data's experiment and they see the same
    life forms.  Two beings arrive from an temporal rift, unloading more energy
    for their fellow aliens to feed on - energy taken from humans on Earth at
    the moment of death, according to Troi's empathic sense.  Picard, Riker,
    Troi, Geordi and Dr. Crusher enter the gateway, which closes behind them as
    they travel back in time to search for Data and find out why alien beings
    are interfering with human history.

        directed by Les Landau
        music by Dennis McCarthy
  Stardate 46001.3:  After Picard and the away team manage to find indigenous
    clothes and lodging, they begin a task which Data, separately, has pursued
    since arriving - attempting to track down the aliens.  They find a couple,
    disguised as a doctor and nurse, who have been stealing neural energy and
    escaping unnoticed, and the deaths then are attributed to a cholera epidemic
    of the period.  In the meantime, Data has enlisted the help of Guinan, but
    has run into some unwelcome curiosity from Samuel Clemens, who trails both
    Data and Guinan assuming that they've arrived from the future with evil
    intentions.  Picard's away team captures the key to the aliens' neural
    energy-gathering trips but the aliens themselves escape.  Picard's party is
    rescued from arrest by Data, who then introduces Guinan to Picard for the
    first time in her life.  They then travel to the cavern where Data's head
    will be discovered in the 24th century, followed by Clemens.  As Clemens
    pulls a gun on the travelers, the aliens return to retrieve their creature,
    but Data holds on to it, and one of the aliens escapes through a temporal
    rift.  The energy surge causes Data to explode, and the alien nurse is left
    behind, dying.  Riker, Crusher, Troi and Geordi return to the 24th century,
    taking Data's decapitated body with them - and again, they are followed by
    Clemens.  Picard remains to make sure Guinan is unharmed, while the crew, in
    the 24th century, tries to retrieve Picard, send Clemens back to his native
    time, and stop further alien intereference with Earth's past.

        written by Brannon Braga
        directed by Cliff Bole
        music by Jay Chattaway
  Stardate 46041.1:  The Enterprise locates the missing starship Yosemite,
    adrift in a matter stream between binary stars.  A link between the two
    ships' transporters must be established so an away team can investigate the
    Yosemite, but Lt. Barclay, assigned to the away team, reveals his life-long
    fear of transporting.  Troi convinces him to overcome his fear long enough
    to beam over to the Yosemite.  Beaming back to the Enterprise later, Barclay
    is sure he sees some kind of creature in the transport beam approach and
    touch him.  Fearing he has contracted a psychosis caused by the transporter
    scrambling his brain, he becomes so preoccupied that Troi relieves him of
    duty while Geordi and Data begin reconstructing a mysteriously shattered
    sample container form the Yosemite, an experiment which reveals that there
    are indeed life forms in the matter stream.  And Barclay is exhibiting early
    symptoms of something that may have killed the Yosemite's crew.

  Stardate 46071.6:  A transport vessel carrying Ambassador Alkar and a women he
    introduces as his mother is attacked en route to mediation sessions between
    the warring societies of Reycag and Seronia.  Alkar's party transfers to the
    Enterprise, which will complete their journey.  On the way, Alkar befriends
    Troi, but this meets with intense hostility from his elderly companion.  The
    old woman suddenly dies soon afterward, and Alkar asks Troi to assist him in
    performing the funeral meditiation sacred to his race.  After performing the
    ceremony, Troi begins to feel unusually angry, jealous and amorous toward
    Alkar and others on board.  Dr. Crusher uncovers evidence that Troi's
    condition has been inflicted deliberately by Alkar, telepathically
    depositing his dark emotions in Troi, aging her body and destroying her
    mind, and the only release for Troi may be death.

  Stardate not given:  While responding to a distress signal, the Enterprise
    encounters a Dyson sphere, a colossal artificial structure whose habitable
    interior surface is powered by a small star kept in the center of the
    sphere.  The source of the distress signal, a 75-year-old transport ship, is
    found crashed into the outside surface of the sphere.  An away team recovers
    a single survivor, who, when his ship crashed and no help was expected to
    arrive for quite some time, used an innovative last-ditch transporter
    modification to suspend himself.  The occupant turns out to be Captain
    Montogmery Scott, chief engineer of the original Enterprise.  Scotty is
    welcomed aboard the modern Enterprise, but soon finds that his skills and
    knowledge are of no use to Starfleet in the 24th century.  In an attempt to
    make the uneasy visitor from the past feel useful, Picard assigns Geordi to
    take Scotty to work on the systems of the crashed transport ship, but the
    Enterprise is then captured and taken into the interior of the Dyson sphere
    by unknown forces.  Scotty, left aboard the small, damaged ship with Geordi,
    may once again be the only hope for a starship called Enterprise.

  Stardate 46191.2:  After Riker's complaints of fatigue, Geordi's VISOR causing
    him problems, and Worf feeling unusually jumpy, it becomes apparent that an
    external influence is responsible.  Counselor Troi investigates and finds
    that several crew members have complained of similar symptoms stemming from
    unsettling dreams.  Gradually, using a holodeck recreation of the dream
    environment programmed by those suffering the unusual effects, a mysterious
    string of experiments conducted by aliens from within the physical domain of
    subspace is discovered.  As more incidents occur, with the crew powerless to
    stop them, the experiments become more deadly.  Riker, who has been
    frequently experimented upon by the aliens, volunteers to take part in an
    experiment of the crew's own to see if the instrusions can be halted.

  Stardate 46192.3:  Student intern Amanda Rogers is transferred to the
    Enterprise to get a sample of Starfleet duty.  An accident occurs in
    engineering which almost forces Geordi to blow the warp core out of the
    ship, but Amanda astonishingly reverses the impending catastrophe.  Shortly
    afterward, Q arrives and informs the crew that Amanda is a fledgling Q whose
    powers, just emerging, are beginning to concern the Q Continuum.  The crew
    is left with no choice but to allow Q to tutor Amanda on matters of the
    responsibilities involved with possessing godlike powers, since, obviously,
    none of them have any knowledge on the subject.  But it gradually becomes
    apparent that Q, and his fellow occupants of the Continuum, may not have a
    benevolent fate in store for the confused Amanda.

  Stardate 46235.7:  A shuttlecraft bringing Picard, Guinan, Ensign Ro and Keiko
    collides with an energy disturbance, necessitating an emergency rescue via
    transporter.  But the energy field disrupts transport, and the passengers
    from the shuttle arrive as children, though their minds are unaffected.
    They find it difficult to adjust - Picard worries about his lack of command
    presence, Ro despises being relieved of duty, and O' Brien can't cope with
    Keiko's sudden reversion to youth.  Guinan, however, seems to be enjoying
    herself.  The ship continues on a course to respond to a distress call from
    a science team.  On arrival at the site, the Enterprise is attacked by two
    Klingon ships which have been taken over by Ferengi.  The Ferengi board the
    Enterprise and begin beaming the crew off to serve, along with the captured
    science team, as slave laborers.  The Ferengi refuse any compromise, but
    Captain Picard and the other "youngsters" may be able to salvage the
    situation.

  Stardate 46271.5:  A scheduled maintenance layover allows the crew to indulge
    in some leisure activities, much to the dismay of Worf, who, without any
    duties to use as an excuse, must oblige Alexander by joining him for a wild
    west adventure on the holodeck with Troi.  Meanwhile, Data and Geordi
    experience a malfunction during a test of Data's ability to interface with
    the ship's main computer, though they do not initially realize the extent of
    the malfunction.  Shipwide computer errors occur, ranging from Spot's cat
    food being dispensed from every food slot, to images of Data replacing
    Worf's holodeck nemesis and kidnapping Alexander to hold the boy for a
    ransom.  By the time Geordi begins effecting repairs, Worf is committed to a
    shootout with a holodeck villain who has Data's agility and precision.

        based upon material by L.J. Scott
        directed by Jonathan Frakes
        music by Dennis McCarthy
  Stardate 46307.2:  The Enterprise arrives at Tyrus 7A to observe a new
    experimental method of mining, the particle fountain, which uses a stream of
    high-density particles to extract and lift planet-based ore from an orbiting
    station.  A malfunction occurs while Geordi is visiting the station, and Dr.
    Farallon, the ambitious head of the particle fountain project, introduces
    her other innovation, a small repair robot called an exo-comp, which is able
    to correct the problem almost instantly.  Later, while Data is visiting the
    station, another accident happens and Data notices an exo-comp exhibiting a
    will to survive.  Data hypothesizes that the exo-comps are living beings
    with their own intelligence, and possibly the beginnings of sentience.  But
    when he asked to prove that the exo-comps are alive, one of them appears to
    fail a test on the Enterprise, but has actually realized that it is being
    tested, and is therefore intelligent and alive, though Dr. Farallon refuses
    to acknowledge the exo-comps' status.  A crisis strands Picard and Geordi on
    the station, endangered by rising radiation levels, and Farallon proposes a
    solution which would amount to a suicide mission for the exo-comps.  When
    the crew prepares to implement the solution and save Picard and Geordi, Data
    stands in the way of the rescue operation to protect the exo-comps' rights.

  Stardate 46357.4:  Near the border of Cardassian space, Picard is unexpectedly
    reassigned by Starfleet.  There are indications that the Cardassians are
    mobilizing for war with the Federation.  Picard, Dr. Crusher and Worf get
    ready for a mission they can't speak about to anyone.  Captain Jellico, now
    in command of the Enterprise, doesn't score any points with the crew in his
    unusual demands that the ship be made combat ready.  En route to Celtris III
    Picard tells Worf and Dr. Crusher that the Cardassians may be perfecting a
    nearly invincible new form of biological warfare.  Meanwhile at the border,
    Jellico begins talks with Cardassian representatives which confuse them and
    the Enterprise's officers.  On Celtris III, Picard's team find themselves in
    a trap.  Crusher and a wounded Worf escape a Cardassian ambush, but Picard
    is captured and taken to Gul Madred, who has alarming foreknowledge of their
    attempt to gather intelligence.  And the interrogation of Picard begins...

  Stardate 46360.8:  Cardassian representative Gul Lemec reveals to Jellico that
    Picard has been captured on Celtris III.  Under interrogation by Gul Madred,
    Picard is tortured in the Cardassians' attempt to find out more about the
    defenses of Minos Korva, a planet once sought by the Cardassians in their
    war with the Federation.  On the Enterprise, Jellico prepares for all-out
    war in the event of a collapse of diplomatic relations, but meets with open
    disapproval from Riker.  Jellico relieves Riker of his duties and continues
    to deny that Picard's mission was ordered by Starfleet, which disqualifies
    Picard from the terms of the Federation-Cardassian treaty concerning fair
    treatment of prisoners of war.  Picard resists further torture but is pushed
    to the limits of his endurance while Gul Madred continues to question him
    about Minos Korva, of which Picard knows nothing.  Meanwhile, Jellico
    confronts the Cardassians and calls their bluff after discovering a flotilla
    of their warships hiding near Minos Korva.  He successfully demands a
    withdrawal and the release of Picard.  Returned to the Enterprise, Picard
    resumes command, but all is not normal after his experience at the hands of
    the Cardassians.

  Stardate 46424.1:  As the Enterprise is en route to witness the collision of
    two gaseous planets, Data and Geordi visit the London of Sherlock Holmes,
    noticing small program anomalies.  Barclay checks the holodeck's programming
    and unwittingly reactivates a program which had been created and put into
    storage four years before when Moriarty, in another Holmes program, evolved
    into Data's ideal adversary.  Moriarty demands to talk to Picard.  Unknown
    to the crew, he has been alive and aware in the computer's memory the whole
    time, and he defies the laws of physics by stepping out of the holodeck and
    roaming the Enterprise.  Moriarty asks that a Countess with whom he fell in
    love in the course of another holodeck program be brought to life to
    accompany him, but Picard is reluctant, preferring instead to research just
    how Moriarty has achieved corporeal existence, and to determine whether or
    not the professor intends to continue his legendary criminal activities.  As
    it turns out, Moriarty is indeed planning on attempting a swindle of an
    immense scale - but Picard means to see that Moriarty's scheme is limited to
    the scale of the holodeck.

  Stardate 46461.3:  The Enterprise crew begins an investigation when the crew
    of a Federation communications relay station near the Klingon border is
    discovered to be missing, and there are signs on the station that someone
    has been killed with a phaser set on high power.  Someone has taken the
    station's shuttle, and records of certain subspace transmissions have been
    taken.  In the course of the investigation, Geordi goes through the logs of
    Lt. Aquiel Uhnari, searching for clues about what happened on the station.
    There are signs that she had experienced personality conflicts with the
    station's senior officer and only other occupant, and her logs mention
    visits from a belligerent Klingon.  The Klingon is located by Picard, and
    the Klingons reveal that they have found Lt. Uhnari in the station's missing
    shuttle.  Geordi, who has come to "know" Aquiel through her logs, becomes
    personally involved in the investigation of the apparent murder of her
    superior officer on the station, but he has a hard time separating his
    responsibility to solving the mystery from his personal feelings.

  Stardate 46519.1:  Counselor Troi, waking up after being kidnapped from a
    neuro-psychology seminar, finds herself aboard a Romulan Warbird, posing as
    a member of Romulan intelligence to participate in a carefully plotted
    defection attempt by a Vice-Proconsul of the Romulan High Council.  With the
    clandestine guidance of a member of the Romulan crew, Troi plays her role
    convincingly.  In the meantime, a former human defector to Romulus returns
    to the Federation and arrives on the Enterprise with a message to Picard
    from Ambassador Spock, who remains in hiding on Romulus assisting defectors
    and dissidents.  The message sends an unwitting Picard to rendezvous with
    the ship carrying Troi and the defector, an encounter which forces Troi to
    make a split-second decision to either break with the intricate plans of the
    defection scheme, or to follow her Romulan confidant into what may be a
    trap.

  Stardate not given:  After a diplomatic meeting with aliens goes drastically
    wrong and ends in an exchange of fire, an away team is beamed into sick bay
    with a dying Picard.  As Dr. Crusher tries desperately to resuscitate
    Picard, a near-death vision begins in Picard's mind...or so he thinks, until
    Q is revealed to be behind it.  Q informs Picard that his artificial heart -
    which Picard gained after, as a newly-commissioned ensign 30 years before,
    he instigated a brawl with three huge Nausicaans and got stabbed through the
    heart - is the cause of his death in the present.  Q tempts Picard with the
    opportunity to change his personal history by depositing Picard's current
    consciousness in the body of Ensign Picard within a few days of his fateful
    encounter with the Nausicaans.  Picard must weigh the moral implications of
    changing the past to ensure his present survival against adhering to the 
    tragic dictates of his destiny.

  Stardate 46578.4:  The Enterprise visits Deep Space 9 to deliver supplies and
    personnel to assist the rebuilding of Bajor.  On the station's Promenade,
    Worf encounters an alien profiteer who claims to know the whereabouts of 
    Worf's father, allegedly still alive.  While Worf, troubled, ponders the 
    legitimacy of this news, Data and Geordi assist Dr. Bashir, visiting from 
    the station, in conducting an analysis of a piece of equipment discovered in 
    the gamma quadrant.  An accidental power overload shuts Data down 
    momentarily, yet he has a vision of a short walk through the corridors of 
    the Enterprise and a brief encounter with his creator, Dr. Soong.  Unsure of 
    how to interpret or proceed from this experience, Data seeks the advice of 
    many others, including Worf.  Still contemplating a possible journey to find 
    his father, Worf advises Data to pursue the search for his own "father" at 
    whatever the cost, while Worf himself finally resolves to embark on a 
    dangerous quest to a Romulan prison camp.  When he arrives, Worf finds not 
    only a familiar Klingon face, but many others, all of whom are secretive 
    about their internment until Worf is captured by Romulans.

    though he is not allowed to leave, he discovers that the Romulan and Klingon
    occupants of the planet have sacrificed any futures they might have had
    among their own people to settle down into peaceful co-existence, in some
    cases producing children.  Worf befriends Gi'ral, a Klingon-Romulan girl who
    seems more fascinated with him.  He discovers, through her and a young
    Klingon boy named Toq, that the children of the colony know little or
    nothing of either race's heritage.  Worf intends to remedy what he perceives
    as a lack of cultural education, even at the risk of dividing the loyalties
    of the camp's residents.

  Stardate 46682.4:  The Enterprise stops at the Remler Array for a routine
    decontamination sweep.  The sweep, however, requires the evacuation of the
    ship, since it will be conducted with a beam that is deadly to living
    tissue.  At a nearby starbase, most of the crew tries to avoid Commander
    Hutchinson, an interminably boring officer hosting a reception.  At the
    mention of horses on the planet, Picard decides to return to the Enterprise
    briefly to get his saddle, but while there, he notices that unauthorized
    modifications have been made by a team posing as starbase technicians.  As
    the sweep begins with the aft end of the ship and moves slowly forward,
    Picard prepares to beam back to the starbase to warn security, but ship's
    power is cut off due to the sweep, leaving Picard trapped on the ship with
    an unknown group of hostiles.  Meanwhile, on the starbase, the rest of the
    Enterprise's officers are taken hostage, and it becomes obvious that there
    is a well co-ordinated plan underway which involves the Enterprise.

    professor's work when Galen's ship is unexpectedly attacked and destroyed.
    Following his late mentor's vague leads and secretive trails, Picard takes
    the Enterprise to distant worlds, attempting to piece the puzzle together.
    But it is discovered that others - a great variety of others, at that - are
    also attempting to finish Galen's work, and the end result could be a secret
    of vast power.

        music by Jay Chattaway
  Stardate 46778.1:  Riker's rehearsals for an upcoming play about a man in an
    insane asylum, not to mention his preparations for an impending undercover
    mission on a planet divided by warring factions, are punctuated by feelings
    of paranoia he can't explain, as well as the periodic appearance of an
    apparently new officer whose presence makes Riker nervous.  But after the
    performance of the play, Riker suddenly finds that he is indeed in an asylum
    - though even this perception becomes tenuous.  Terrified of losing his grip
    on sanity, Riker starts clawing through layers of illusions in an attempt to
    get back to reality.

  Stardate 46830.1:  Dr. Crusher goes out on a limb by gathering some of the
    brightest minds in the galaxy aboard the Enterprise to listen to a proposal
    from Ferengi scientist Reyga for a powerful subspace shield.  Skepticism and
    competition divide the scientists, but a demonstration is arranged, using an
    Enterprise shuttle.  The pilot, who is also one of the scientists, dies when
    the experiment goes wrong.  Beverly, already regretful for the failure of
    Reyga's invention, suddenly finds herself in the middle of a murder
    investiagation when Reyga himself is found dead.

  Stardate 46852.2:  Worf journeys to Boreth, where devout Klingons meditate in
    hope of glimpsing a vision of Kahless, the legendary leader of all Klingons
    and the originator of their hereditary quest for honor and glory.  Worf and
    many of the others are surprised when Kahless actually appears and announces
    his intention to return to the imperial throne and put the Klingon Empire
    back on a path toward honor.  Worf is skeptical at first, but when Gowron,
    the Empire's current leader, demands a genetic test which proves that the
    new arrival is indeed Kahless, a deep division separating skeptics and those
    who wish to follow Kahless seems imminent.

  Stardate 46915.2:  Returning to a planet that a Starfleet research party
    hastily abandoned eight years ago, an away team finds Lt. Will Riker, a copy
    of Riker created by a transporter anomaly during his participation in the
    original evacuation.  This Riker has never been assigned to the Enterprise,
    nor has he resolved his relationship with Troi as the "real" Riker, and his
    isolation has resulted in a very different personality from the Riker who
    has served on the Enterprise for six years.  His motivations, discipline and
    judgment differ from his higher-ranking alter-ego, and the two Rikers must
    stop seeing each other's perceived failings long enough to assist one
    another in a dangerous salvage mission.

  Stardate 46944.2:  Returning via runabout from a Starfleet conference, Picard,
    Troi, Geordi and Data encounter strange disturbances in time that seem to
    have limited physical range.  Finally locating the Enterprise, they find her
    in some kind of exchange of fire with a Romulan warbird, in a zone of time
    that moves so slowly it appears to be still.  Altering escape equipment to
    allow freedom of movement in the other areas of time, Picard and the others
    try to determine whether the Enterprise was invaded by Romulans, or if it
    was simply caught in a rescue attempt gone wrong - and whether or not they
    can restart the flow of time without bringing events to their inevitably
    disastrous end.

  Stardate 46982.1:  The Enterprise arrives at the site of a recent attack on a
    Starfleet, only to find the Borg in orbit in a new class of vessel much
    larger than their previously known forms of transport.  The Borg have also
    changed, now possessing some form of individuality and emotion - and they
    have also developed a desire to simply kill organic life forms, not absorb
    them into the Borg collective consciousness.  A squadron of Borg attack an
    away team from the Enterprise, and Data, in the process of fending off a
    Borg, experiences an inexplicable flash of ruthless anger and kills the
    Borg.  The attacking party defeated, the away team returns to the Enterprise
    and Picard contacts Starfleet.  The new Borg pose an unknown but likely more
    serious threat than ever before to the Federation.  After determining the
    new Borg ship's method of propulsion, the Enterprise follows and is attacked
    once again.  Meanwhile, Data has yet to make any further progress in his
    analysis of his first amotion - but a captured Borg makes Data a seductive
    offer to experience more emotions...and it turns out to be an offer Data
    apparently cannot resist.

  Stardate 47025.4:  Taken prisoner by Lore and the Borg while trying to locate
    the missing Data, an away team consisting of Picard, Troi and Geordi is
    trapped while the Enterprise is attacked in orbit by the Borg ship.  Left in
    command by Picard, Beverly beams aboard as many of the Enterprise search
    parties from the planet below as she can and is forced to retreat.  Riker
    and Worf, left behind, discover that Hugh is in hiding on the planet and is
    biding his time to wrest control of the newly-individualized Borg from Lore,
    who appealed to the disoriented members of the former collective to follow
    him to a state of completely non-organic immortality.  In the meantime, Data
    has distanced himself from his past, showing cruelty and sadism toward his
    captured former comrades.  Riker offers to help Hugh in his fight against
    Lore while hoping to free Picard and the others, as Beverly decides to turn
    the Enterprise around to retrieve the rest of the crew - but if Data
    continues to obey the dictates of Lore, there may be no members of the crew
    to retrieve.

  Stardate not given:  An Iyaaran delegation visits the Enterprise for the first
    formal diplomatic function between Iyar and the Federation.  Picard is
    scheduled to shuttle back to Iyar, while Iyaaran ambassadors Loquel and
    Byleth remain on the Enterprise.  The Iyaaran shuttle taking Picard back to
    their homeworld crash-lands on a planet covered with violent electrical
    storms, one of whose plasma lightning bolts injures Picard when he leaves
    the shuttle to look for medical aid for the critically injured pilot.  A
    woman named Anna, who has apparently been stranded alone on the planet for
    seven years, gets Picard to shelter inside a crashed freighter.  On the
    Enterprise, ambassadors Loquel and Byleth test the patience of their
    respective hosts, Troi and Worf, while Picard has to contend with a woman
    whose isolation has driven her to try to keep him in the crashed vessel with
    her - but Picard learns that no survivors of the freighter's complement or
    crew are actually still alive.

  Stardate 47215.5:  A new interface is being tested by Geordi to control remote
    unmanned probes.  Utilizing his VISOR implants, Geordi is able to see, hear
    and experience whatever conditions the probe encounters.  His interface with
    the probe comes in useful while the Enterprise investigates the loss of the
    starship Raman.  But during the mission, Picard receives word that the
    starship Hera, commanded by Geordi's mother, has disappeared with all hands,
    and Starfleet, despite dispatching two more vessels to search, does not
    expect to find the Hera or any of her crew.  Geordi is profoundly affected
    by the news, and when he encounters an image of his mother on the Raman, he
    goes against his father's advice and Picard's direct orders and tries to use
    his unique interface with the probe to find out what has happened to her.

  Stardate 47135.2:  Riker, Troi, Worf and Crusher are searching for the missing
    Captain Picard on Desica II to no avail.  A Yridian claims he witnessed
    Picard's death in a seedy bar after an argument with a group of aliens, and
    offers to give Riker some clues in exchange for safe passage off the planet.
    Once aboard the Enterprise, the Yridian leads Riker to a planet in the
    Barada system, where an away team led by Riker beams down to hunt for
    possible leads in the investigation.  A well-armed group of aliens under the
    command of a Romulan ambushes the away team, and Riker is captured and
    beamed away with the attackers.  Data takes command of the Enterprise and
    pursues the alien ship.  Riker finds himself in the hands of a band of
    mercenaries commanded by Baran, a vicious-tempered leader who maintains the
    loyalty of his crew - and Riker - by using pain-generating implants which he
    controls.  Riker is astounded to find that the newest member of the rogue
    crew on their mysterious mission to raid ancient Romulan artifacts is a
    knowledgeable rogue named "Galen" - better known to Riker as Captain Picard.

  Stardate 47160.1:  Riker is accepted into Baran's outlaw fold by pretending to
    be an old enemy of "Galen," and the mercenaries' mission continues.  Picard
    discovers that Baran's gang is not looking for Romulan artifacts, but for
    ancient Vulcan artifacts.  The Romulan mercenary Tallera reveals herself as
    an undercover Vulcan security operative, and she earns Picard's trust enough
    for him to reveal his own identity.  A Klingon shuttle pilot carrying the
    last of three vital artifacts is intercepted by the Enterprise, which
    becomes Baran's next target.  Riker is left for dead on the Enterprise by
    Picard to resume command, as Picard leads a mutiny among the mercenaries and
    kills Baran.  Picard must try to play into Riker's hands without arousing
    the mercenaries' suspicions - or Tallera's.

  Stardate 47225.7:  Having just received a new warp core from a starbase, the
    Enterprise departs with both Picard and Geordi ready to test the more
    efficient drive system en route to an admirals' banquet which Picard is not
    looking forward to.  The warp core fails to perform to expectations - in
    fact, it fails to perform at all.  Simultaneously, Data experiences his
    first nightmare, and then his second, and his third, all full of disturbing
    imagery he feels he should not ignore.  His friends don't think it's
    anything to worry about, until Data's nightmare visions drive him to commit
    acts of violence.

  Stardate 47254.1:  Lwaxana Troi visits the Enterprise again along with a small
    delegation of Icarans, who communicate in telepathic imagery with no verbal
    elements whatsoever.  To prepare them for their first meeting with the
    Federation council, Mrs. Troi is trying to help the Icarans learn to
    translate their imagery into speech, a facility they were born without.  Not
    long after Deanna notices her mother experiencing brief episodes of intense
    anguish, Lwaxana collapses into a coma, and the only clues to her condition
    and the reason for it are held by the Icarans, who are not able to fully
    communicate it.

  Stardate 47340.2:  The world inhabited by the Kes and the Prit is divided;
    the Prit are xenophobic to the point of hostility, but the Kes have applied
    for membership in the Federation, which is surprising since they are
    paranoid to the point of operating like a police state.  Beaming down to
    meet with Kes representatives, Picard and Beverly are kidnapped by the Prit,
    who believe the potential Kes affiliation with the Federation to be a
    military pact.  Fitted with neural implants to allow their captors to
    retrieve information without an interrogation, Picard and Beverly manage to
    escape with the aid of an undercover Kes agent onto the surface, where they
    are to head to the Kes border.  An unusual side-effect of their implants
    allows them to hear each other's thoughts en route.  In the meantime, Riker
    is trying to glean information about his captain's whereabouts from a Kes
    representative who is deliberately being less than helpful.

    Enterprise finds that a brother and sister have been misleading and damaging
    all warp-capable vessles that enter the region of space near their home
    world, claiming that warp engines are agitating a sensitive subspace rift
    which threatens to destroy everything nearby if it become active.  Reluctant
    to accept this theory, Picard and the crew plan to rescue the damaged ships
    and move along, but when one of the protesters opens the subspace rift with
    a burst of warp energy, the Enterprise may be unable to escape.

    Enterprise is visited by Dr. Tainer and her husband, two scientists whose
    plan may save the planet.  The first chance she has to speak to Data
    privately, Tainer reveals herself to be the ex-wife of Dr. Soong and
    co-designer of Data and Lore.  Though he is skeptical at first, Data finds
    evidence that she may be who she claims to be, and begins to spend time with
    her in an effort to find out about his creation and development.

  Stardate 47391.2:  Returning triumphant from a Klingon martial arts
    competition, Worf walks right into a surprise birthday party, but notices
    that something is amiss aboard the Enterprise; events begin contradicting
    themselves, and cause no longer leads to a logical effect.  His environment
    and his comrades change - Troi suddenly believes she is Worf's wife; Geordi
    is killed in engineering during a Cardassian assault.  Worf alerts Data to
    the strange occurrences, and Data begins to research a way to send Worf back
    to his original universe.  Further disparities appear, including Riker's
    command since Captain Picard's death in the Borg invasion several years ago,
    and Worf's two children (neither of them Alexander) by Troi.  Data discovers
    the way to send Worf back...but when Enterprises from every possible
    variation of every potential reality appear, not every crew wants reality
    restored to its normal flow.

  Stardate 47457.1:  The Enterprise is assigned to head for an asteroid belt in
    a sensitive area between Romulan and Federation space, with Admiral Pressman
    from Starfleet Security aboard.  Along the way, it is clear that the
    Enterprise's objective is top secret, and that Pressman and Commander Riker
    have some old business to discuss.  On his first Starfleet mission as an
    ensign, Riker served aboard the USS Pegasus and witnessed a shipwide mutiny
    against that ship's captain - Pressman.  Riker defended Pressman at the time
    and they were among a handful of survivors who escaped before the ship was
    apparently destroyed by a mishap in engineering.  Now, twelve years later,
    Pressman reveals to Riker that the Enterprise's secret mission is to search
    for the Pegasus - Riker's first starship still exists, and still harbors the
    treacherous secret that once sparked a vicious mutiny whose nature is still
    a dark, closely-guarded secret in the files of Starfleet Security.

  Stardate 47423.9:  Dr. Nikolai Rozhenko, Worf's human foster brother, has sent
    a distress call from his hidden cultural observation post on Boral II, a
    planet whose atmosphere is going to break down in less than two days.  Worf
    beams down, disguised as a Boralan, only to find that his brother has also
    been masquerading as a native and providing them with means of survival
    based on the technology of his observation post.  Nikolai is admonished by
    Picard for his severe violation of the Prime Directive, but when the planet
    is within seconds of dying, commits an even greater breach by transporting
    a handful of Boralans into a holodeck simulation of the shelter on their
    world.  The Enterprise crew - especially Worf - are now left with the
    dilemma of relocatintg the simplistic Boralans to a new world without
    revealing the true nature of their surroundings.  Damage to the holodeck
    jeopardizes the mission.

    colony's seismic and meteorological control systems a routine check, strange
    things begin happening.  In her grandmother's journals, Beverly learns that
    her grandmother, despite being over a century old, had a young lover.  When
