Picard and Data meet
Spock on the planet Romulus. Spock is initially
uncooperative when Picard questions him as to the
details of his mission. However, the tension is lifted
when Picard shares the unhappy news of Spock's father's
death and attempts to fulfill his friend's last request
by telling Spock of his father's love. Spock then
reveals to Picard that the purpose of his mission is to
reunify the Romulans and the Vulcans. The revelation
shocks Picard, who does not trust the intentions of the
Romulan government. After learning this, Data transports
back to the disguised Klingon ship that brought him and
Picard to Romulus and attempts to access the Romulans'
computer system.
Back on the U.S.S. Enterprise, Riker continues to
investigate the theft of surplus Vulcan ships and
materials. He makes contact with Amarie, the ex-wife of
a smuggler killed when the Enterprise destroyed the
unmarked enemy warship that interrupted their
investigation. Meanwhile, Senator Pardek brings Picard
and Spock to meet with Neral, the Romulan Proconsul, who
claims to support reunification. However, after Picard
and Spock leave, Sela appears in Neral's office. Later,
Picard tells Spock that he doesn't trust the fact that
Neral has offered his support so quickly, without the
support of Romulan traditionalists. Spock also feels
skeptical, but decides it is in the Federation's best
interest to proceed whether the Romulans have an
ulterior motive or not.
Afterwards, on the
Klingon vessel, Spock offers Data his help in trying to
access the Romulan computer system. At the same time,
Amarie puts Riker in touch with a Ferengi arms trader,
who, after a threat from Riker, reveals that the
Romulans are involved in the theft of Vulcan ships.
Riker immediately
contacts Picard with the news, and both wonder how the
stolen Vulcan ship fits into the picture. The two agree
to meet, and Riker steers the Enterprise towards Romulan
territory. Data finally manages to access the Romulan
computer system, and he and Picard transport back to the
Romulan surface to inform Spock of their findings. Spock
immediately deduces that Pardek and Neral have
double-crossed him, a fact that becomes even clearer
when Sela appears and takes the group prisoner,
informing them that she plans to take over Vulcan.
On the Enterprise,
Riker worries when he is unable to reach Picard.
Meanwhile, Sela declares her plan to force Spock to
deliver a speech, in which he will announce the arrival
of the stolen Vulcan ships. The ships, disguised as a
peace envoy, are actually manned by Romulans and have
been dispatched to seize control of the Vulcan
government. When Spock refuses to cooperate, Sela shows
him a holographic image of himself, Picard and Data,
which she will use instead if she is forced to kill
them. When Sela leaves the room, Picard and Data work
furiously on the computer and provide themselves with an
escape route. They also send an emergency signal to the
Enterprise, which, already suspecting foul play,
intercepts the Romulan "peace envoy" and destroys the
ships. Enraged, Sela returns to kill Spock, Picard and
Data, but is instead tricked into firing at their
holographic images, giving the real Data an opportunity
to subdue her with an imitation of Spock's legendary
Vulcan nerve pinch. The three escape, and Spock decides
to remain on Romulus to continue to work towards peace.
