The Crew is surprised to discover that Riva is a deaf mute and communicates through a chorus of three people who translate his thoughts into words. Riva is immediately drawn to the empathic Troi (Marina Sirtis), and they develop a deep mutual affection. When Riva meets the leaders of the warring parties, a rebellious soldier opens fire, killing the chorus and forcing Riva and the away team to escape. Now, unless Picard and his crew can persuade Riva to resume mediations, Solais Five will be plunged into war. | |

Morgan Sheppard), one of the greatest minds in the universe and teacher of Noonian Soong. Data (Brent Spiner) develops an instant rapport with Graves, who is fatally ill. Graves tells Data he has discovered a means to transfer his life's knowledge into a computer, and then dies.

| Stardate 42506.5 An interstellar exchange brings a Benzite named Mendon (John Putch) to the Enterprise, and gives Riker (Jonathan Frakes) the opportunity to become the first Federation officer to serve on a Klingon ship. Aboard the Klingon cruiser Pagh, Riker impresses his new shipmates when he subdues a second officer (Brian Thompson) who questions his authority. Meanwhile, Mendon uncovers a virulent strain of bacteria eating away at both hulls of the Enterprise and the Pagh. The Klingons mistakenly believe the Enterprise is responsible for the bacteria, and the Pagh's captain, Kargan (Christopher Collins), commands Riker to give the order to fire. Riker's loyalty is divided between the Federation and the Klingon vessel he has sworn to serve. The lives of the Enterprise crew now hang in the deadly balance. | |
