Sir, we are approaching
Klavdia lll.

Take us to impulse power.

Aye, sir.

Impulse power.

Bridge, this is Engineering.

Yes, Lieutenant.

Now that we're out of warp

I'd like to use this time
to make some routine adjustments

on the deuterium
control conduit.

We're overdue.

How much time will these
adjustments require, Lieutenant?

A couple of hours, sir.

Proceed,
Lieutenant La Forge.

Standard orbit, Ensign.

Wes, I'm going to need an SCM
model three, from ship stores.

Can you handle that?

Right away.

All right.

Magnify, Mr. Worf.

Hardly an inviting planet

even for a research
establishment.

I would have thought
the inhabitants of Daled lV

would send a future leader

to a more hospitable
environment.

For some, security
is more important than comfort.

Yes, but 16 years.

Captain, we are being hailed.

Hailing frequencies, Mr. Worf.

Open.

This is Captain Picard
of the USS Enterprise.

Sir, the planet's troposphere
is distorting our signal.

Can you clean that up,
Mr. Worf?

I'll try.

Now.

This is Picard
of the Enterprise.

Please, will you repeat
your message.

I am Anya.

Have you come
for Salia of Daled lV?

That is correct.

What species are you?

Human.

Excellent.

Bring us aboard.

That is all.

Friendly, isn't she?

Friendly or not, Salia has
the rank of head of state

so we shall treat her
and Anya accordingly.

Number One, Mr. Worf,
let's go greet our visitors.

You have the Bridge, Mr. Data.

Aye, sir.

Welcome to the Enterprise.

I'm Captain Picard.

This is Salia of Daled lV.

I didn't feel a thing.

Is that normal when one
is transported, Captain?

Oh yes, it is.

Those must be the matter-
energy conversion controls.

May I take a look?

Yes, of course.

I could arrange for a tour
of the ship, if you'd like.

Oh, I'd love that.

No, that will not be necessary.

Just show us to our quarters,
Captain Picard.

Very well.

We're accommodating you
in quarters

normally reserved
for Starfleet Admiralty.

I'm sure you'll find them
quite comfortable.

That's a superconducting
magnet, isn't it?

Yeah, it's an SCM model...

How did you know that?

Study. For the last 16 years,
it's all I could...

Please, Salia.

Walk ahead with me.

Better be careful.

Those can rip the iron
right out of your blood cells.

Commander, who is she?

Uh, I think she's a governess.

No, the girl.

Oh, I don't know if she'll have
time for you, Wes.

She's destined to rule
an entire world.

Space, the final frontier.

These are the voyages
of the Starship Enterprise.

Its continuing mission--

to explore
strange new worlds

to seek out new life
and new civilizations

to boldly go
where no one has gone before.

Come in.

You wanted to see me?

Yes.

Data, the girl
who came on board...

Salia of Daled lV.

Who is she?

Little is known.

She was born on Daled lV.

Her parents were
from opposite sides

in a civil war which has lasted
for centuries.

They both died
shortly after her birth.

A Federation ship brought her
and her governess to Klavdia lll

so that she could be raised
in a neutral environment.

And now she's returning?

It is hoped she will unite
the factions and bring peace.

Ensign Crusher, report.

Are you all right?

Geordi?

Yeah, I'm fine. I just...

Wes, we're waiting

for that magnet.

I'm on my way.

Captain, we've broken orbit

and laid in a course
for Daled lV

and we will remain
on impulse power

until Lieutenant La Forge
completes his adjustments.

Mr. Worf, have our passengers'
accommodations

met with their approval?

I doubt if anything ever meets
with that woman's approval...

sir.

Captain, I'm concerned
about our new passengers.

Their emotions do not fit

who they are
and what they're doing.

Are you suggesting they're
not who they say they are?

Actually, no.

It's more like

they're not what
they say they are.

Picard to Salia's quarters.

Yes.

May we turn on the viewer?

Yes, of course.

Are your quarters satisfactory?

Yes. Very.

Tell me, Captain

who was the young man
I met before?

That was Ensign Wesley Crusher.

Thank you for checking
on us, Captain.

I only hope our quarters on
Daled lV will be this luxurious.

Please feel free
to contact me at any time.

Picard out.

What I sensed before
hasn't changed.

What puzzles me, Captain

is how she is expected
to bring peace to Daled lV.

Its inhabitants
have been fighting

throughout
their recorded history.

What do we know
about the cause of these wars?

Only that it is the difference
between night and day.

Data, you used a colloquialism.

Did l?

What I meant, sir

is that Daled lV rotates
only once per revolution.

Therefore, one side
is constantly dark

and the other side
constantly light.

One might surmise
that the two hemispheres

have developed
disparate cultures

which is a major cause
of most wars.

This child is supposed
to bring them together.

She seems too delicate

for such a task.

Do not be fooled by her looks.

The body is just a shell.

How can I be a leader

if I don't know anything
about my people?

You will lead because you are
accepted by both sides

and because it
is in your blood.

What is expected of me
once I'm there?

You will know.

How?

You just will.

Salia, you must arrive
with an open mind

without preconceived ideas
of the world you will find

or the people
on either side.

It's very frustrating.

You feel the weight
of so much responsibility.

You're not sure you'll live up
to everyone's expectations.

It's not only that.

Nobody has even asked me
if this is something I want.

It is your duty.

Then I have no choice.

It won't be as bad as you think.

In fact, it could be
quite wonderful.

Besides...

you are the last
and only chance.

Don't you think I'm going
to need more than instinct

to do whatever's expected
of me on Daled lV?

Energy depletion level?

.04% and increasing.

Wesley?

Wesley, you haven't found

that defocused area yet?

I'm looking.

Yeah, I see the way
you're looking.

Wesley!

What?

Sorry.

I've got my mind
on something.

I can see that.

It's this girl
they beamed up, Geordi.

She's perfect.

Absolutely perfect.

Now I understand
why you can't concentrate.

I'll do better.

Okay.

I'll do better.

Warning--
resonant field applied.

What is it?
What happened?

Nothing. I had it on
the wrong setting.

I suppose it had
to happen to you.

It usually does
about this age.

What usually does?

Glands erupting with hormones.

Happens to all of us.

Just because I said that I think
she's interesting...

You said she was perfect.

Uh-huh. Come on down.

You're no use around
here for now.

Come on down from there.

Go talk to her.

Use the ladder.

That's silly, Geordi

but since you recommended it

how should I approach her?

If she'll talk to me,
what should I say?

Just say, "Hi.
I'm Wesley Crusher.

I'd like to talk to you."

And then what?

Whatever occurs to you.

Well, what if nothing occurs?

Look, Wes, I don't have
time for this.

You're going to have to ask
somebody else.

Okay.

That is how the Klingon
lures a mate.

Are you telling me
to go yell at Salia?

No.

Men do not roar.

Women roar.

Then they hurl heavy objects...

and claw at you.

What does the man do?

He reads love poetry.

He ducks a lot.

Worf, that sounds like it
works great for the Klingons

but I think I need to try
something a little less...

dangerous.

Then go to her door.

Beg like a human.

It should be
that simple, Wesley.

Judging by her appearance,
it is likely

you and Salia are
biologically compatible.

Of course there
could be a difference

in the histocompatibility
complex

of the cell membrane, but...

Data, I want to meet her,
not dissect her.

Picard to Salia's quarters.

Yes, Captain?

May I activate the viewscreen?

Hurry. Go, go.

Certainly.

We've invited Anya
to take a tour of the ship.

Maybe you would like
to join her.

Very much.

Your escort will be
with you shortly.

Picard out.

I think I'll go on the tour.

Why can't l?

This is the only chance
I'll ever have

to see a vessel like this.

No.

You must remain here
where it is safe.

Salia, do an old woman a favor

and obey me
for the rest of this trip.

You are no more an old woman
than I am a leader.

Yes. Come in.

I'm here to escort you
on a tour of the Enterprise.

Salia will remain behind.

I will be right there.

You are a leader

and I am older
than you could ever imagine.

What should I say? How do I act?

What do I do?

Guinan, I need your help.

Could you step
over here a minute?

Sounds simple enough.

Now, first words
out of your mouth

are the most important.

You may want to start
with something like this.

You are the most beautiful
woman in the galaxy.

But that might not work.

Yes.

Yes, it would.

You don't know how long
I've wanted to tell you that.

-But you were afraid.
-Yes.

Of me?

Of us. Of what we might become.

Commander...

Or that you might think
that was a line.

Maybe I do think it's a line.

And you think I'm not sincere?

I didn't say that.

There's nothing's wrong
with a line.

It's like a knock
at the door.

Then you're inviting me in?

I'm not sending you away.

That's more than I expected.

Is it as much as you hoped?

To hope is to recognize
the possibility.

I had only dreams.

Dreams can be dangerous.

Not these dreams.

I dream of a galaxy
where your eyes are the stars

and the universe
worships the night.

Careful.

Putting me
on a pedestal so high

you may not be able to reach me.

Then I'll learn how to fly.

You are the heart in my day
and the soul in my night.

I don't think
this is my style.

Shut up, kid.

Tell me more about my eyes.

This is the dilithium
crystal chamber.

Ah, our Chief Engineer
Geordi La Forge.

What is that?
What are you doing?

Nothing to be concerned about.

Just performing
some routine adjustments.

I wasn't aware that
the deuterium control conduit

required routine adjustments.

I perform
periodic inspections

on all engineering systems.

In this case, you seem to have
found a malfunction.

It's not a malfunction.

It's simply that a minute
defocused area has developed.

Lowers our operating
efficiency.

It could also lead to
excess pion production.

Our computer
would detect that.

Unless of course it,
too, is malfunctioning.

Look, I really have
to get this finished.

Anya

please come with me.

I will be back
to check your progress.

Ensign Crusher,
what can I do for you?

Nothing.

Is there a problem?

No.

Could you show me how to work
the food dispenser?

Sure.

Really, it's...
it's quite simple.

You just tell the computer
what you want

and it prepares it for you.

Oh.

What should I order?

I don't know.

What do you like?

I'd like something sweet.

I know.

Computer,
Thalian chocolate mousse.

It's a wonderful sensation.

On Thalos Vll, they age
the beans 400 years.

You've been there?

It's one of
my favorite places.

Oh, it must be fun to visit
a planet like that.

It's the best part
of being on the Enterprise.

I've studied about some of them

but to see them,
that would be wonderful.

Tell me about some of
the other places you've been.

Oh, there's too many.

The only world I've known
is Klavdia lll.

It's about time we changed that.

How?

Come with me.

I'll be with you in a moment.

What's wrong with him?

Andronesian encephalitis.

That disease is contagious.

Very unlikely.

Our air filtering system can...

But there is a chance.

If you mean mathematically

yes, the probability
is not zero.

I cannot rely on
your primitive technologies.

Kill the patient.

What?

Destroy the patient.

Immediately.

Now, you calm down.

If you won't take action,
then I will.

Security to Sick Bay. Hurry!

Wait.

Hold your fire.

Worf!

What is she?

Keep her away.

Do not interfere.

She wants to kill Hennesey.

His disease threatens Salia.

Captain, there is
no chance of contagion.

The situation is under control.

That's not good enough.

Well, it will have to be.

Your powers are infinitesimal
compared to mine.

Yes, that may be

but you will obey my orders.

You will remain in your quarters
and in your present form

for the rest of this voyage.

Is that clear?

Very.

Keep her under guard.

Aye, sir.

Wait for me.

What kind of creature is she?

I've never seen anything
like her.

There is mention in the galactic
zoological catalogue

of a species
called allasomorph

which supposed to possess
the power

to alter their molecular
structure into other life-forms.

Such a creature would make
a perfect protector.

I want a security team stationed
outside Sick Bay, Mr. Worf.

Aye, sir.

Captain,
what if Anya transforms?

Improvise.

Can a place so remarkable
truly exist?

Yes.

There are many more.

All of them are different.

I've learned about them.

That's all I did
on Klavdia lll was learn.

I know so much

but I've seen so little.

Think of all you have
to look forward to.

This is a great time
to be alive.

For you.

For both of us.

This is all just beginning.

We've only charted
19% of our galaxy.

The rest is out
there just waiting.

Look what we've
already discovered.

I have never seen anything
so wondrous.

Wait.

Computer, Rousseau V.

It's breathtaking.

Yes.

And you've been
to this place?

Someday you'll
visit Rousseau V

and many other places
all more spectacular.

If only it were possible.

Listen.

What is it?

In a moment

the harmonic resonance
from the neutrino clouds

will become synchronous.

It's so beautiful.

It's like this place
has a voice.

It's trying to speak to us.

Thank you for sharing
all of this with me.

Someday you'll see it all
for yourself.

Look over there.

Remain here.

You are restricted
to these quarters

for the remainder
of this voyage.

You are the protector
of this ship, are you not?

I am in charge of security.

You must understand my duties
as well.

If you confine me to this cell,
I cannot protect Salia.

There is no need for concern.

She is safe on this ship.

You must understand that l
cannot make such an assumption.

You no longer have the choice.

You have to trust me
to protect her.

No.

A true protector
cannot have two charges.

Your responsibility
is to the ship.

My duty is to Salia.

My responsibility to the ship
includes protecting Salia.

You know I'm stronger than you.

I was unprepared.

You underestimated me
in your Sick Bay.

That is usually fatal.

Still you are here
confined to your room.

I ceased my struggle
by choice

not because of you
or your Captain.

I would have stopped you.

If not me, someone else.

No, you cannot control me.

We will see.

We've obviously brought a very
dangerous life-form on board.

I want to minimize
the chance of any incident.

Whatever kind of
life-form Anya is

emotionally,
she's Salia's mother.

The most dangerous animal

is a mother
protecting her young.

Exactly.

Captain, this is Anya.

Yes?

Salia is gone.

Where is she?

This has all been so wonderful.

I'm not even sure it's real.

Believe me, Ten-Forward
isn't an illusion.

Not that.

I mean the way I feel.

You won't find a better dish
of chocolate anywhere.

I'm sure I won't.

Is something wrong?

I've had a great time
being with you, Wesley.

And that makes you sad?

When I was on Klavdia lll

all I could think about
was leaving that isolation.

What makes me sad
is having to face it again

after seeing
what else is possible.

Is that what awaits you
on Daled lV?

Isolation?

Yes.

I thought you were going there

to reunite two warring parties.

What else do you know?

Very little.

The ship's computer

doesn't have that much
on Daled lV.

How will you stop the fighting?

I'm not certain.

I only know I will have
many responsibilities

when I get there.

Your language has no word
for the position I'll hold.

In many ways

I'll have even less freedom

than I did on Klavdia lll.

You could stay.

On the Enterprise?

Why not?

Because I can't.

Just because a girl runs out

doesn't mean she doesn't
wish you to follow.

What is it?

What happened?

Salia.

Stay away from me.

I'm sorry.

I don't understand.

I can't stay here.

I can't have this life.

I want it more than anything

but I can't have it.

Salia, nothing is impossible.

Not for you.

There's a way.

I know there is.

Leave her alone!

Ensign, step away from her.

Come with me.

Energy depletion level.

Zero.

La Forge to Bridge.

Yes, Lieutenant?

I've just completed
my final adjustments.

Thanks for the time.

You now have warp
engines available.

Very good.

Number One, get us to Daled
as quickly as possible.

Ensign Gibson, take us
to warp 8.8.

Warp 8.8, sir.

Estimated time?

Three hours, nine minutes.

Ensign Crusher, when you're
finished with your duties

in Engineering,
report to my ready room.

Yes, sir.

You have the Bridge, Number One.

Aye, sir.

The woman, Anya

is not what she appears to be.

She is an allasomorph.

A shape-shifter?

Yes.

She's not only a governess

she's also the girl's protector.

Now, I don't care to interfere
in the personal relationships

of those under my command

but in this case...

You want me
to stay away from Salia.

Yes, I do.

For the good of the ship

and the safety
of everyone on board.

I will do as you ask.

Why won't you let me
have a friend?

It is my duty to protect you
from danger.

There's no danger here.

There is always danger
from one who is not your kind.

Salia, he's confusing you.

You're forgetting
your responsibilities.

Whether or not I see Wesley
is for me to decide.

It is not.

I raised you, I protected you

and I intend to deliver you
to Daled lV.

Maybe what you want
doesn't matter anymore.

Salia, please.

I know it's difficult for you

but you must do what you are
destined to do.

Standard orbit.

Aye, sir.

Hailing frequencies,
Mr. Worf.

Captain, I'm encountering
the same interference

we experienced on Klavdia lll.

The troposphere appears to be
distorting our signals.

It is fascinating, Captain.

Klavdia lll and Daled lV

have almost
identical atmospheres.

Magnify.

Times 20.

How could anyone exist
in an environment

so totally hostile
toward human life?

Mr. Data, do whatever
is necessary

to override the interference.

Let's complete our mission.

Come in.

Salia.

You shouldn't have come.

Do you want me to leave?

I didn't say that.

Then you want me to stay.

Does Anya know you're here?

That doesn't matter.

I'm glad you came.

I thought Anya would have
kept you with her.

Well, I have certain rights.

So in other words,
you slipped out.

While she was asleep.

I hope you didn't
get in trouble

from your Captain.

Oh, I haven't gotten
in trouble yet.

Anya thought you would
corrupt me.

With my wild way of life?

Maybe...

with the normal things
people do

when they like each other.

Wesley, get out of here now.

What's going on?

Just go, please.

Security, crew quarters.

No! Anya, no!

You should not
have disobeyed me.

I had to.

I warned you
to leave her alone.

Captain's Log,
Stardate 42568.8:

Since Anya's powers
of transformation

apparently gave her the ability
to escape her guards unnoticed

we have sealed her quarters
with a force field

that will contain her

no matter how small a form
she may take.

Captain, I am receiving
an audio signal.

Audio on.

Come in, Enterprise.

This is command headquarters
of Daled lV.

We have been expecting you.

Sir, sensors indicate
the communication originated

from a terrawatt source
on the planet.

That's more power
than our entire ship

can generate.

It is what is needed to
penetrate the atmosphere.

Which means we lack

the ability to respond, sir.

Sir, there are beam-down
coordinates encoded

within the carrier signal.

Splendid.

I'll arrange for our guests
to beam down.

Force field off.

Come in.

We have arrived.

Salia will be with you
in just a moment.

You're not going?

No.

My duties have been completed.

I have done all that I could.

I hope it was enough.

You raised me well

and I thank you for that.

I would not have harmed
the boy.

I only wanted to frighten him.

I know.

You are ready
for what awaits you

and you will do well.

I know I've been hard on you

but I wanted to prepare you

for anything you might
be required to do.

Will I be able
to leave Daled lV?

Probably not.

But anything is possible.

That's what Wes said.

I hope he's right.

Where will you go?

The third moon is within range
of this ship's transporter.

I shall go there.

It was my home
before we went away.

I'm going to miss you.

I know.

I am ready now.

I will escort you
to Transporter Room Six.

You will be happy
to see me leave.

No.

You are a worthy opponent.

Thank you.

At heart, we are
very much alike.

Yes, we are.

Perhaps we shall fight again.

On the same side?

It would be an honor.

Shall we go?

Come in.

Wesley, I have to go now.

Was it fun?

What do you mean?

Playing humanoid.

Was it fun?

Wesley, look at me.

Right now, this minute

this is what I am.

A humanoid girl.

What are you really?

Does it matter?

Yes.

Our natural state is one
unlike anything you can imagine.

So you took this form
for our benefit?

That's why you wanted to know
what species we are.

I'm sorry I hurt you.

I didn't mean to.

I loved you.

I love you, too.

Can you?

Yes, oh, yes.

I have the same feelings

the same emotions as you.

You must believe me.

Please go.

Wesley, let's not say good-bye
like this.

Prepare to beam Salia
to the specified coordinates.

Aye, sir.

Our world is grateful

for the courtesy
which you have extended us.

I hope someday
that the Federation

and Daled lV will have
formal contact.

That is my wish as well.

Coordinates
have been input, sir.

Proceed.

Wait.

A taste to remember me by.

I wish there was something
I could give you.

You already have.

I'm glad you came
to say good-bye.

Thank you for everything.

I want you to leave now.

Why?

I cannot arrive on my planet
in this form

and I want you to remember me
as I am now.

Don't worry.

I will.

Energize.

Seeing her
on the transporter pad

it was like seeing pure light.

I miss her.

I feel...

empty.

I know that sensation.

But there will come a time

when all you'll remember
is the love.

I'm never going to feel this way
about anyone else.

You're right.

I didn't expect you to say that.

There will be others.

But every time you feel love,
it will be different.

Every time it's different.

Knowing that doesn't make it
any easier.

It's not supposed to.
