Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaWax from a blue candle was used to represent the dilithium pieces.
- GoofsRiker and his team transport directly aboard the Hathaway, which is supposedly without power. There could be breathable air, but a ship abandoned without life support would be too cold for them to board without freezing. Remote access can certainly take place and obviously there is power or there would have been no lights when they beamed over. Obviously they would have activated life support ahead of time.
- Quotes
Captain Jean-Luc Picard: It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life.

Featured review
War game, no game
One thing I could not figure out is what value StarFleet saw in Roy Brocksmith?
His particular alien race was deemed a master at strategic planning so StarFleet
inflicts him on the Enterprise and Captain Picard as an observer as the ship is
ordered to a war game exercise.
Only it's not a game when the Ferengis deal themselves in. Brocksmith proves himself a fine armchair admiral. It's Patrick Stewart who employs a correct strategy to rescue forty of his crew on another vessel which includes Riker, Worf, Geordi, and Wesley Crusher.
As always even in the Star Trek future, war is really no game at all.
