Synopsis
Gul Madred tortures the captured Picard for Starfleet's defence plans, demanding he say he sees five lights. Meanwhile Jellico, with Riker piloting, mines the Cardassian ships hidden in a nebula and forces them to withdraw and release Picard, who says there are four lights.
Continuity
- Follows Chain of Command, part 1 (S06E10): Resolves the cliffhanger: Picard's interrogation by Gul Madred.
Log entries
Captain's log, stardate 46360.8. The negotiations with the Cardassians have made little progress. I believe a military confrontation may be unavoidable.
First Officer's log, supplemental. I have returned from the rendezvous point in the Lyshan system with Doctor Crusher and Lieutenant Worf. Captain Picard's fate is still unknown.
