Stardate: 41309.5 After several Federation officials are taken hostage, the Enterprise is dispatched to carry a famous, but now elderly, retired negotiator back to the planet where he became famous many years before for negotiating a peaceful settlement to the planet's civil war. It is hoped that he can replicate his previous success and get the hostages freed.

However, the elderly Admiral begins to show signs of improving health and even signs of growing younger. Soon it becomes apparent the Admiral has taken drastic measures to not only save the hostages, but to also hide the dark secret of just how he was able to end the planet's civil war those many years ago. The measures he has taken will likely cause his passing in a very short period of time; maybe even before he can complete his task.

Star Trek: The Next Generation Show Summary

"Space, the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. Its continuing mission: To explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilisations, to boldly go where no one has gone before".

In this highly successful spin-off to the original Star Trek, Captain Jean-Luc Picard and the crew of the Galaxy-Class starship, the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-D, set out to explore the final frontier. Along the way, they make first contact with myriad different species and solve reconflicts among those societies with whom they were already familiar, most notably the Klingon Empire.
