Captains Kirk and Picard meet in a strange "Nexus" that defies time. Together,
they save a planet from destruction.
A Champagne bottle tumbles through space, slowly drifting towards its intended
target, the new U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-B. It is late in the 23rd century,
and the inauguration of the vessel is attended by crew from the former starship
of the same name — James Kirk, Montgomery Scott and Pavel Chekov. Reporters and
onlookers clamor to interview Kirk and the new U.S.S. Enterprise captain about
commanding a starship, as the crew begins to embark on its routine maiden
voyage. A short time into the flight, however, the starship receives a distress
call and is diverted to aid two El-Aurian transport vessels which are caught in
a strange, mysterious energy ribbon. Kirk, falling back on his old instincts,
quickly finds that not only is the new captain inexperienced, but most of the
ship's vital weapons and functions have not yet been installed. While Kirk,
Scott and Chekov struggle to save the ship, the transporter room beams aboard
survivors, even as their El-Aurian transport vessels are torn apart by the
energy ribbon.
Kirk goes below deck to work on the deflector
relays, but the ribbon suddenly strikes the starship, tearing a large gash
through the hull and leaving only debris where Kirk was working. Scotty and
Chekov stare out into space, bewildered by the sudden loss of their friend.
Seventy-eight years later, in 2371, the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-D
join together on the holodeck for a ceremony to promote Lt. Worf — a Klingon
officer — to the rank of Lieutenant Commander. The ceremony is conducted using a
19th-century sailing ship and corresponding uniforms. The merriment is suddenly
interrupted, however, when Picard receives an urgent personal message. Suddenly
depressed, Picard leaves the festivities to contemplate in privacy.

Picard orders the Enterprise to follow the Borg back in time to stop them from
destroying the Phoenix, Earth's first warp-speed vessel.
Captain Jean-Luc Picard awakens from a nightmare about his Borg assimilation
experience to an incoming message from Admiral Hayes. Hayes informs Picard that
Deep Space Five reported that a colony has been destroyed. Completing the
Admiral's sentence, Picard realizes who destroyed the colony — the Borg.
Picard calls a meeting and informs his senior
officers that their ship has been instructed to patrol the Neutral Zone. Their
orders are to protect the area from any possible Romulan uprising during a Borg
attack. Despite protests from his officers, Picard remains faithful to his
orders and the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC 1701-E begins to patrol the area. Later,
Picard regretfully tells Riker that it is his own fault they are stuck in the
Neutral Zone. Starfleet believes Picard to be too emotionally involved with the
Borg because of his previous assimilation to tactically complete a mission
against them.
The men return to the bridge to learn that Starfleet has engaged in combat with
the Borg. Intercepting messages between the starships, the crew learns that the
Federation is losing. Picard, with his Borg experience, knows he can help the
fleet. He informs his staff that he will make a decision directly in opposition
to Starfleet commands. With no objections from his crew, Captain Picard gives
the order and the starship Enterprise sets a course for Earth and the attacking
Borg cube.

Insurrection:
PRODUCTION NUMBER: 009
ORIGINAL RELEASE DATE: 12.11.1998
Picard fights a Starfleet admiral who is complicit in the relocation of an
indigenous people in order to exploit their planet's natural properties.
Captain Picard's effort to save Lt. Commander Data leads him to the Ba'ku
planet, where the Federation and their Son'a allies are conducting a cultural
survey. The Ba'ku seem at first to be a simple race of only six hundred people,
living in one village on their isolated world. But when Picard meets a Ba'ku
woman, Anij, he gradually learns that there is more to her people than meets the
eye: She, like most of her fellow Ba'ku, is more than three hundred years old.
Picard also learns that the survey is only a
cover — for a plot to kidnap the Ba'ku en masse and exile them from their world.
Ru'afo, the Son'a leader, has discovered that the planet is bathed in metaphasic
radiation that reverses aging. What the Ba'ku have, the Son'a — an aged, dying
race — want desperately for themselves.

PRODUCTION NUMBER: 010
ORIGINAL RELEASE DATE: 12.13.2002
STARDATE: 56844.9
A Romulan clone of Picard's seeks revenge and threatens the destruction of the
Federation with a powerful weapon.
On Romulus, the senate is locked in heated debate. Romulus and her sister world
Remus are divided, but the Reman leader, Shinzon, has a plan to unite them.
Shinzon's plan is rejected, and the senate moves on to other matters. A
mysterious device sits on one desk ... and suddenly opens, filling the senate
chamber with a strange, green energy. Suddenly, light begins to fill the room
and everyone inside groans with pain as their flesh decays. Within seconds, the
entire senate is dead.
Meanwhile, Captain Jean-Luc Picard is presiding over a particularly joyous
event: a party celebrating the wedding of William Riker and Deanna Troi. As best
man, Picard offers up a toast, and complains that everything around him is
changing — Riker is leaving for his own command, the Titan, and Troi is joining
him. Data will be taking over as first officer of the Enterprise. As everyone
wishes the happy couple well, Data serenades them with a rendition of "Blue
Skies." Afterwards, the Enterprise heads to Betazed, where the crew will
participate in a traditional Betazoid wedding (which makes Worf very nervous).
En route, Worf notices a positronic signal emanating from the desert-like planet
of Kolarus III. As only Dr. Soong-constructed androids like Data emit a
positronic signal, Picard orders the ship to re-route for further investigation.
