Synopsis
Geordi is abducted and brainwashed by the Romulans, who control him through his VISOR to assassinate Klingon Governor Vagh and wreck the Federation-Klingon alliance; Ambassador Kell is their agent, and an unnamed woman commander is heard but not seen.
Continuity
- Leads to Redemption (S04E26): Related rather than explicit: both show Romulans working against Klingon leadership, with the Duras family named in each.
