SYNOPSIS

The Enterprise tracks down a freighter which was destroyed years earlier. Two escape pods are tracked to Angel One… a matriarchial planet, and it’s up to Troi and Riker to rescue them, who have now become fugitives…

REVIEW

Not much to write home about with this episode. It was, for all intents and purposes, an episode showing us what a female dominated leadership would look like…

Having said that, there’s a mention of Romulan activity along the Neutral Zone… a hint of the season finale… 12 episodes before it happens! (I didn’t think that the series laid foundations early on…)
