Turn it off and turn it back on again. That's how this plot resolves and it may just be the first time such a momentous adage was shown to the public as the rise of the digital age. The Enterprise is heading to the Romulan neutral zone to save its sister ship, the U.S.S. Yamato. Captain Varley is convinced he's found an ancient space-faring civilization with advanced technology, but his ship suddenly explodes after experiencing functional failures. Picard follows the breadcrumbs, evading the Romulans, and eventually the Enterprise starts to suffer the same malfunctions. Time for Data to call the IT Crowd! Kate hosts this episode and feels bad for Geordi getting thrown around in the turbolift, Erik wants more of Captain Varley, Jimmie was a tea captain, and Greg laughs a lot.
