Stardate: 43917.4 Captain’s Log: The Enterprise is given the singular honor of escorting Ambassador Sarek to a conference with the Legarans, a first contact that Sarek has worked on for 93 years. His staff—Ki Mendrossen, a human, and a Vulcan named Sakkath—beam aboard first, warning the captain that the ambassador will require rest and that Picard should forego the usual ceremonial stuff that ships do when ambassadors come on board. Picard is disappointed, but agrees. Sarek materializes and insists upon seeing the conference room despite the attempts by his wife—a human woman named P...

Stardate: 42823.2 Captain’s Log: The Enterprise is given custody of a distress call that a starbase picked up. It took the starbase hours to figure out that it is a centuries-old S.O.S. that was in use by the European Hegemony in the twenty-second century. But there’s no record of an Earth ship in the Ficus Sector, where the signal’s coming from. The time frame was sufficiently chaotic, following World War III, that the lack of records isn’t surprising, but Data suggests looking for a manifest, which turns up the S.S. Mariposa, which fits the bill. Said manifest includes some incred...

Stardate: 42901.3 Captain’s Log: Riker’s poker game is interrupted by a Class-11 emergency signal, which is parsimonious with specifics, only that the ship is to divert to a set of coordinates, with further instructions forthcoming. With a due sense of anticipation and dread, Picard orders the ship to those coordinates, which is outside the Boradis system, which was colonized within the past three decades. Admiral Gromek tells Picard that they must meet up with a special emissary who is traveling at warp speed inside a probe. Not exactly a comfortable way to travel. The emissary is a half...

Stardate: 42506.5 Captain’s Log: Some crew replacements come on board the Enterprise, along with Ensign Mendon, a Benzite, who’s part of an officer exchange program. Riker volunteers to participate in the program as well, serving on a Klingon ship. He is assigned as first officer of the Pagh. While Riker does research into Klingon culture, cuisine, and protocol, Mendon wanders the bridge, with his ego entering the room about twenty seconds before he arrives. When the Enterprise rendezvouses with the Pagh, Mendon detects a bacterial colony on the hull of the latter ship, but doesn’t ...

Stardate: 46682.4 Captain’s Log. The Enterprise has arrived at the Remmler Array for a maintenance procedure known as a baryon sweep—it basically wipes away all the space gunk that’s accumulated over five years. Because the sweep is fatal to all organic matter, we open with the ship in a massive flurry of activity as folks prepare to evacuate. After Picard puts out some organizational fires—stasis units for Crusher, opening a transporter for Troi to aid in evac, etc.—he shares a turbolift with Data, who fills the silence with non-relevant conversation. Apparently, he has created a ...
