- The crew of the Enterprise is infected with a virus that causes them to behave as though they were intoxicated.
- Picard and the crew of the Enterprise are set to rendezvous with a Federation scientific vessel studying the collapse of a super red giant star into a white dwarf. As they near the ship however, they receive odd communications from the vessel, almost as if they are all drunk. When one of the crew blows an outer hatch, the crew is killed. An away team investigates but acquire a virus-like disease that makes them appear drunk and removes all inhibitions. As it spreads throughout the ship, Picard and Riker try to maintain discipline while Dr. Crusher tries to find a cure. Riker recalls a similar situation in the history of ships named Enterprise and that gives them a head start but not before an infected Wesley Crusher disables the engines just as the sun explodes leaving the ship in destruction's path.—garykmcd
- Before the Enterprise reaches the scientific Federation ship studying a star about to turn supernova, they receive disturbed distress signals. Most crew died aboard from frost, some float in space as corpses, all due to crazy decisions they made. After Riker's away part returns, they start behaving oddly, as if drunk. By the time Dr. Crusher, who suspected intoxication, realizes it's infectious, various crew members including herself are contaminated. Riker gets Data to work out the syndrome resembles one Kirk's Enterprise encountered and developed a cure for. Wesley made a cool mini tractor beam as as school project, is infected and now misuse it to seal off the engine section, but still comes up with a solution when the ship risks being blown apart by the expanding star.—KGF Vissers
- Picard and the crew of the Enterprise are set to rendezvous with a Federation scientific vessel studying the collapse of a super red giant star into a white dwarf. Enterprise is assigned to investigate due to a series of weird messages from the vessel that indicate something has gone wrong on board. As they near the ship however, they receive odd communications from the vessel, almost as if they are all drunk. When one of the crew blows an emergency escape outer hatch, the entire crew is killed. Data says that this is impossible under normal circumstances.
An away team investigates but acquire a virus-like disease. There are indications of a wild party throughout the ship. Tasha finds 10 people frozen in the Engineering section, with evidence that they were playing with the environmental controls. There were 80 people on the ship, and none are alive. Geordi came into physical contact with some dead crewmen on board the spaceship and brings the virus over to the Enterprise. The virus makes them appear drunk and removes all inhibitions.
Geordi is confined to sick bay as Dr Crusher finds elevated temp on him. But he escapes and infects Wesley and then Yar. Wesley is working on a tractor beam as his science project under Geordi. Wesley is thoroughly familiar with the entire ship, but yearns to be on the bridge, which is not yet allowed by Picard. Yar brings Geordi to sickbay where Deanna senses intoxication in Geordi. Meanwhile Dr Crusher still can't find anything wrong with Geordi, apart from his temperature. As it spreads throughout the ship, Picard and Riker try to maintain discipline while Dr. Crusher tries to find a cure. Yar also gets intoxicated and comes to Deanna's cabin to seek her advise on which clothes to wear.
Riker recalls a similar situation in the history of ships named Enterprise. He remembers reading somewhere that a crew person was found taking a shower in full uniform. That gives Dr Crusher a head start but not before an infected Wesley Crusher disables the engines. He has erected a Repulsor beam to block entry to the engine room. He only lets the assistant Chief Engineer inside who has pulled out all the computer chips controlling the engines due to which all the engines are offline. Just then the sun explodes leaving the ship in destruction's path.
Dr Crusher develops the vaccines as per Dr McCoy's notes and starts administering them. But the formula doesn't work as the virus is somehow different. Picard summons Yar, and soon finds that she is infected. Picard sends Data to escort Yar to sick bay. Yar has sex with Data and infects him. Deanna gets infected from Geordi and presses herself on Riker to infect him. Riker touches Dr Crusher and infects her. Dr Crusher wants to do "things" to Picard and infects him.
Picard asks Wesley to release control of the ship back to bridge, but Wesley refuses. The red giant starts to collapse. Riker tries to short the power to Wesley's Repulsor beam. The collapsing star's debris will engulf the Enterprise in 14 mins. But the Chief Engineer working with Riker gets Wesley's Repulsor beam switched off and is able access the engine bay. The Chief Engineer cannot replace the chips back within 14 minutes. Wesley suggests Data can put back the computer chips back into position in no time.
Beverly finishes a new vaccine in time and tests it on Geordi and it works. Data starts putting the chips back but needs 1 more minute than what they have. Wesley suggests reversing polarity on the tractor beams to make them into Repulsor beams, to repulse the star debris coming towards the Enterprise, and give Data that extra minute. The ploy works and Data gets the extra time he needs. Beverly inoculates the entire ship.
