Star Trek: The Next Generation - Samaritan Snare

VHS, PARAMOUNT

As Wesley (Wil Wheaton) prepares to fly to Scylla 515 for his Starfleet exams, he is joined by an unexpected traveling companion - Captain Jean Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart). Unbeknownst to Wesley, Picard has been ordered by Dr. Pulaski (Diana Muldaur) to undergo a cardiac replacement operation. While Picard and Wesley travel to Scylla 515, the Enterprise receives a distress call from the Pakleds. The Pakleds, a race of slow witted humans, need help to repair their ship. Riker (Jonathan Frakes) beams Geordi (LeVar Burton) aboard the Pakled vessel. Suddenly, Geordi is disarmed and the Pakleds refuse to release him until Riker surrenders all of the Enterprise's computer information. As Riker struggles to devise a way to free Geordi, an emergency summons arrives from the Starbase: surgery complications have left Picard near death. Is the Enterprise about to lose both its engineers and captain?.
