When Captain Picard (Patrick Stewart) learns that Ensign Crusher (Wil Wheaton) will be leaving the Enterprise to attend Starfleet Academy, he asks Crusher to accompany him on one last mission. The mission, to mediate a conflict in a mining colony, takes Picard and Crusher on board a miner's shuttle which malfunctions and crashes - leaving them stranded on an arid, lifeless moon. While they are searching for water, the reckless shuttle pilot (Nick Tate) causes an accident resulting in life-threatening injuries to Picard.
Meanwhile, the Enterprise, under Commander Riker (Jonathan Frakes), is trying to save a planet from catastrophic radiation and has yet to learn of their crisis. Ensign Crusher must fight to keep Picard alive until the Enterprise returns.

Stardate 44356.9
When the Enterprise encounters a cluster of nearly invisible two-dimensional creatures, the ship is pulled inexplicably through space. While Counselor Diana Troi (Marina Sirtis) is being consulted about the nature of the phenomenon, she suddenly discovers that she has completely lost her empathic abilities.
Troi attempts to continue her duties, but finds she cannot be effective without access to the emotions of others. Despite efforts by crew members to reassure her, she submits her resignation to Captain Picard (Patrick Stewart). Meanwhile, it's discovered that the Enterprise is being pulled toward a cosmic string fragment - the equivalent of a small black hole - and, if the ship cannot break free in time, it will be torn apart by immense gravitational forces.
