  (#35) To Data In 'Where Silence Has Lease'

  What Was The Situation? While on a star-charting mission, the Enterprise discovers a zone of pure blackness. The crew are pulled into the void against their will. Once inside the zone, they have no point of reference for their location or how far inside the void they are. Data recommends dropping a stationary beacon so that they will have some fixed point to allow them to confirm their speed and distance as they attempt to return to normal space.

  Did He Make It So? The beacon is dropped and the Enterprise travels away from it at warp, but the crew soon finds they have been going in a circle when they encounter the very same beacon directly in front of them.

  (#7) To Data, A Final Time, In 'All Good Things...'

  What Was The Situation? After all that trouble, the Pasteur can't find any anomaly. Klingon birds of prey and battle cruisers have been dispatched to the area after receiving reports of a rogue Federation vessel entering their territory. Crusher wants to return to Federation space while there's still time, but Picard is adamant about continuing the search for the anomaly. Data says he can modify the main deflector to emit an inverse tachyon pulse, which would allow them to scan beyond the subspace barrier.

  Did He Make It So? Data says it will take 14 hours to complete the modifications and the scans. Knowing the danger her crew is in, Captain Crusher orders Data to complete his scans in six hours. If nothing is found, they return to Federation space.

  (#2) To Riker, Again, In 'The Most Toys'

  What Was The Situation? Commander Riker and the crew correctly deduce that Kivas Fajo staged Data's destruction in order to capture him. To find his ship, Riker advises Picard to put out a coded level two query to all Federation outposts in the area that might have traded with Fajo in the hopes of deducing his whereabouts. 

  Did He Make It So? The Enterprise finds Fajo, rescues Data, and Fajo is put into custody.

  (#29) To Data In 'Timescape'

  What Was The Situation? Picard, Data, Troi, and Geordi return from a conference to find that the Enterprise and a Romulan ship are stuck in time stasis right before a warp core breach. To prevent the destruction of both ships, Picard declares that they must be able to move time backwards in order to prevent a power transfer that caused the core to breach. Data suggests using his tricorder to manipulate the effects of the temporal aperture so they can move forward and backward in time.

  Did He Make It So? You bet he did. Data uses a remote-controlled tricorder to move time backwards so they can perform the necessary tasks to save the ship.

  (#44) To La Forge In 'Menage a Troi'

  What Was The Situation? Riker, Troi, and Troi's mother, Lwaxana Troi, have been captured by Ferengi Daimon Tog, who has fallen in love with Lwaxana and won't accept her dismissal of his romantic advances. The Enterprise engages in a rescue mission, but the Ferengi ship is just as fast and could be light years away. Picard asks Geordi to find a way to expand their sensor range. Geordi says he can narrow the band and tie in long-range sensors to the subspace scanners to extend sensor range. Surely that all makes sense, right?

  Did He Make It So? The expanded sensor range does help. The Enterprise discovers the distortion disrupting its communications is actually Riker's doing, and by tracking the source of the distortion and decoding its signal, the crew can find the Ferengi vessel.

  (#21) To Worf In 'Cost of Living'

  What Was The Situation? Systems are critical thanks to the nitrium parasite. Atmospheric systems are down to 27%, below tolerable oxygen limits. Worf recommends evacuating decks 20 through 24.

  Did He Make It So? Yes. Evacuees are directed to decks nine and ten. Emergency life support is diverted to those decks as well.
