Star Trek: The Next Generation Season 2 Episode 21 Synopsis

Stardate: 42923.4 Enterprise participates in a battle simulation between Enterprise and an 80 year old starship, to be capt'.d by Riker. A Zakdornian is assigned to oversee the mismatched simulation. The Zakdor is also a master of the game Strategema. Learning this, Dr. Pulaski pushes Data to challenge the Master to a game. Data relents and plays the game and loses. Stunned, Data removes himself from duty, feeling he must be malfunctioning.

The battle simulation then takes place, but it is interrupted by a Ferengi attack on the Enterprise, as they think there must be some profit Enterprise is seeking from the weaker Starfleet vessel. The question is can Riker, in the weaker vessel, save Enterprise from the Ferengi attack.

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.
