Picard is reading from a list of candidates for first officer of the. One of the names stands out to him, so he contacts his old friend to find out more about him. He asks Johnson about John Benson, the officer who caught his eye on the roster. Johnson tells Picard that Benson is on the starbase as they speak. Picard thanks him and proceeds to locate Benson.

Worf's console informs him of intruders in. Picard orders both him and La Forge to deal with the intruders. Meanwhile, Telnok and his men exit an air return in engineering and open fire on the engineers below. Both sides take multiple casualties, causing the Klingons to retreat back to their ship. La Forge tells Picard that the intruders have left, and that they are Klingons.

Benson informs Picard that the Klingons are hailing them on audio. Kardok introduces himself, and Picard immediately confronts him about the boarding party. Kardok denies that he sent any boarding party to the Enterprise, but Picard doesn't believe him. Kardok closes the channel, and the Klingon ship opens fire.

Worf and La Forge help the injured engineers into. Picard then calls them to the bridge. Upon reaching the bridge, La Forge asks how negotiations with the Klingon vessel went, obviously knowing that they were currently engaged in battle. Picard orders Worf to fire a volley of es at the Klingons. The Klingons retaliate, bringing the Enterprise's shields down to 48%.

Worf asks what is next, and Picard says that they will return soon. Benson adds that they will be ready. Picard calls Dr. Crusher to the bridge.

Picard enters sickbay to check on the injured crewmen. Crusher informs him that both La Forge and Henderson are fine and Gibson will recover, but there is nothing that can be done for Daniels. Picard asks La Forge how he is feeling, and he says he has a headache. Daniels then calls to Picard, telling him it's been an honor to serve on the Enterprise. Crusher then pulls a sheet over Daniels, now deceased.

Johnson then tells Picard to return to, and that they have much to discuss. Picard insists that they can conduct repairs on the Enterprise while searching for the Klingons, but Johnson tells him that he must speak with him personally.

Once the Enterprise reaches Earth, Picard reports to Johnson. Johnson tells Picard that they are living in dangerous times, where they must be wary of who they place trust in. He elaborates that he believes that spies from a secret society have infiltrated Starfleet. He then says that once the Enterprise has received repairs, it will receive new orders. They begin discussing the fact that the attackers were Klingons. Admiral Perry tells Picard that they have agents searching for the Klingons' identities. Picard then tells them that Kardok said that they would meet once again and that he would kill Picard.
