Conclusion. The Cardassians ruthlessly interrogate Picard (Patrick Stewart) in hopes of learning Federation strategy in case of an attack. Back on the Enterprise, Gul Lernec (John Durbin) informs Captain Jellico (Ronny Cox) and the crew that Picard is being held hostage. Riker (Jonathan Frakes) wants to attempt a rescue, but Jellico refuses and the two clash. Ultimately, Riker is relieved of duty.

Fearing a Cardassian invasion, Jellico then orders the Enterprise to Minos Korva to intercept the attacking forces and launch a first strike. As Picard fights for his life in the interrogation chamber, the Enterprise lays mines throughout the sector giving the Federation the upper hand in the battle. But can they save Picard?

After enjoying a Sherlock Holmes mystery on the holodeck, Data (Brent Spiner) and Geordi (LeVar Burton) release the villainous Professor Moriarty (Daniel Davis) who has been trapped in the computer for four years. An exam reveals that the professor is in fact a sentient human being.

Though Moriarty relishes his new surroundings, he misses his beloved (Stephanie Beacham) and asks Picard (Patrick Stewart) to bring her to life as well. When Picard refuses, Moriarty threatens to destroy the ship. Then Data makes a startling discovery - the entire experience is a holodeck simulation controlled by Moriarty. Unfortunately, the danger is no less real, and the Enterprise will be destroyed unless they can escape from the "ship in a bottle."
