Star Trek: The Next Generation - Ghosts
Responding to a distress call in the Allios system, the Enterprise finds a damaged shuttle
belonging to the Republic of Juulet in geosynchronous orbit over Dorossh, a rival nation-state
and bitter enemy. Riker's away team brings a badly injured and delerious Juuletian scientist,
Uul, back to sickbay. Although Juulet has applied for Federation membership, their application
has been on hold due to the ongoing civil war with Dorossh. Nevertheless, Picard wants to know
what happened to the shuttle and why. An attempt to clear the air and mediate rising tensions
ends inconclusively. Back aboard the Enterprise, Uul's injuries won't heal and Crusher is
mystified. Uul also insists that he sees ghosts and Picard is one of them.

Data is recalled to the Enterprise during a crisis and brings the leaders of the Republic of
Juulet with him. Picard hopes they will help prevent Worf's execution, now a prisoner of
neighboring Dorossh. Researcher Everuud recovers enough to talk to Dr. Crusher, but his
colleagues strongly recommend that he remain silent. While Data tries to make sense of
the planet's history, Picard tries to reason with Worf's captors who respond with a battery
of missiles. During the brief battle, Picard vanishes from the bridge.
