Stardate 44769.2 Tension mounts aboard the Enterprise when retired Admiral Norah Satie (Jean Simmons) arrives to assist in the investigation of J'Dan (Henry Woronicz), a visiting Klingon officer accused of spying. Satie quickly extracts a confession from the Klingon, but she believes he did not act alone and the hunt for his accomplice begins. While questioning crew members, Satie's Betazoid aid concludes that one of the medical technicians, Simon Tarses (Spencer Garrett), is lying. Satie insists he is guilty of treason, but Picard (Patrick Stewart) refuses to convict the man without substantial evidence. After forcing Tarses to confess that he is in fact part Romulan, the witch hunt continues and Satie begins to question Picard's loyalties. Does Picard's resistance to her investigation make him guilty of treason? |

Stardate 44805.3 Love blossoms on board the Enterprise when Counselor Troi's mother, Lwaxana (Majel Barrett), romances a visiting scientist, Dr. Timicin (David Ogden Stiers), who is struggling to save his home planet. Hoping to revitalize his planet's dying sun, Timicin takes the Enterprise to a remote region to test his helium ignition theories on a giant star. But when the experiment fails, he must return home for his Resolution - the suicide ritual required at age 60 under Kaelon law. At Lwaxana's urging, Timicin becomes convinced he can still save Kaelon from destruction - all he needs is more time. Defying his leaders, he requests asylum on board the Enterprise. When Captain Picard (Patrick Stewart) agrees, the Kaelon government protests and threatens to go to war! |
