Random Episodes Picard Said 'Make It So' (77 items)

• 

  (#1) To Data In 'The Pegasus'

  What Was The Situation? Starfleet has located the long-lost USS Pegasus in the Devolin system, which is perilously close to the Romulan Neutral Zone. Admiral Erik Pressman, former captain of the Pegasus, orders Picard to either recover the remains of the ship or wipe it out to prevent the Romulans from finding it.

  A sensor sweep reveals the Pegasus is deep inside an asteroid. Pressman would prefer to salvage the ship, so Geordi suggests blanketing the asteroid with high levels of ionizing radiation. Because there is so much of that type of radiation in the area, the Romulans won't be able to discover the whereabouts of the ship. 

  Did He Make It So? Data initiates an ionization field pulse. The deception works, giving the Enterprise enough time to begin its salvage operation.
• 

  (#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.
• 

  (#3) To Lynch In 'Skin of Evil'

  What Was The Situation? The Enterprise has lost contact with Shuttlecraft 13, which crash-landed on the planet Vagra II. Simultaneously, the warp drive has been taken offline so the engineering staff can complete preventative maintenance on the dilithium crystals. The Enterprise has only the impulse drive at its disposal as the crew attempt to mount a rescue for the downed shuttlecraft and the crew members inside it.

  Engineer Lieutenant Leland T. Lynch informs Picard that they have finished their maintenance and only minimum warp speed is recommended. Picard demands Geordi hit warp eight, which causes Lieutenant Lynch to protest. Picard says his order must be followed and commands Lynch and La Forge to make it so.

  Did He Make It So? The Enterprise safely achieves warp factor eight and arrives at Vagra II to begin the rescue attempt.
• 

  (#4) To La Forge In 'Hollow Pursuits'

  What Was The Situation? The Enterprise's matter/anti-matter injectors have jammed due to invidium. Geordi recommends flooding the injector pathway conduit with liquid nitrogen to neutralize the issue.

  Did He Make It So? The liquid nitrogen solves the problem and the anti-matter injectors come back online.
• 

  (#5) To Castillo In 'Yesterday's Enterprise'

  What Was The Situation? In an alternate 24th century, Lieutenant Castillo of the Enterprise-C declares his willingness to take over for his dearly departed Captain Garrett and lead his ship back in time to certain demise in an entanglement with the Romulans that will bring peace to the galaxy and restore the timeline.

  Did He Make It So? Castillo and Lieutenant Tasha Yar escape a Klingon onslaught and travel back in time to the 23rd century, where they make the ultimate sacrifice to protect the Klingon outpost on Narendra III from a Romulan incursion. Peace between the Federation and the Klingon Empire is achieved. The timeline is restored.
• 

  (#6) To La Forge In 'Time's Arrow, Part I'

  What Was The Situation? Data, along with two malevolent alien beings, has traveled back in time to August 11, 1893. Picard implores his crew to come up with a way to replicate the time portal Data and the aliens traveled through so they might rescue him and preserve the timeline. Geordi explains that it won't be easy to replicate what Data did. At best, they can create a contained subspace field, but they'll require a phase discriminator to get the .004 variance they need.

  Did He Make It So? Geordi builds a phase discriminator that creates a subspace field large enough to encompass the entire away team. They travel back to 1893 and rescue their friend.
• 

  (#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.
• 

  (#8) To O'Brien In 'The Wounded'

  What Was The Situation? Chief O'Brien's former commanding officer, Captain Benjamin Maxwell, has gone rogue, firing on a Cardassian science station, a freighter, and a Galor-class cruiser. Picard feels he has no choice but to retaliate against Maxwell's ship to maintain the fragile peace between the Federation and the Cardassians, but O'Brien believes he can reason with his former captain if given the chance to beam aboard his vessel, the USS Phoenix.

  Riker reminds O'Brien that Maxwell will never lower his shields to allow anyone to transport over, but O'Brien knows there is a window of 1/50 of a second between the Phoenix's high-energy sensor sweeps where the shields drop and he can (theoretically) transport over. It's a risk O'Brien is willing to take.

  Did He Make It So? O'Brien successfully beams over to the Phoenix and gets Captain Maxwell to stand down.
• 

  (#9) To Riker In 'The Royale'

  What Was The Situation? A Klingon battle cruiser discovers pieces of an unknown vessel in the upper atmosphere of the planet Theta VIII. The Enterprise is sent to investigate. Commander Riker suggests beaming up a fragment of the ship for closer analysis. 

  Did He Make It So? The vessel fragment the Enterprise beams up is a bit of brushed aluminum with some markings on it. Ever the student of history, Riker identifies the markings as the insignia of the United States Air Force.
• 

  (#10) To La Forge In 'Angel One'

  What Was The Situation? The Enterprise-D has arrived at the class M planet Angel One, a civilization ruled entirely by women. Lt. La Forge has asked for permission to enter orbit around Angel One.

  Did He Make It So? Yes. The Enterprise orbits Angel One for the rest of the episode. Things don't go awry until Commander Riker beams down to the surface.
• 

  (#11) To Young Ro And Young Guinan In 'Rascals'

  What Was The Situation? A transporter mishap turns Picard, Ensign Ro, and Guinan into 12-year-old children. As those three grapple with their newfound youth, the Enterprise is taken captive by a band of Ferengi marauders. Li'l Picard devises a plan to regain control of the ship, but he needs Young Guinan and Tiny Ro to make their way through a Jefferies Tube to get to Main Engineering without being detected.

  Did They Make It So? Kid Ro and Baby Guinan travel through the adult-sized Jefferies Tube without much trouble.
• 

  (#12) To Dr. Crusher In 'Ethics'

  What Was The Situation? The transport ship Denver has struck a gravitic mine left over from the Cardassian conflict. The ship, its crew of 23, and more than 500 colonists bound for the Beloti sector have suffered significant damage. Dr. Crusher asks for all three shuttlebays to be converted to triage centers and for all civilians with medical training to assist with the injured.

  Did She Make It So? Yes, but more importantly, Dr. Crusher needs to repair Worf's spine so he can walk again!
• 

  (#13) To La Forge In 'Schisms'

  What Was The Situation? The rift the aliens are using to board the Enterprise is growing, which threatens the ship's hull integrity. Geordi is using a containment field to prevent the rift from getting any larger, but it's not working. Containment field integrity is set to fail in approximately 14 minutes. Picard asks Geordi if he can divert more power to the containment field. Geordi says that, at best, he can augment the field with auxiliary power, but it won't make all that much of a difference.

  Did He Make It So? Geordi's enhancement works only so well, but it does give Riker enough time to return to the Enterprise before they have to shut the rift with a gravitron pulse.
• 

  (#14) To Worf In 'Hero Worship'

  What Was The Situation? While investigating the disappearance of the research vessel Vico, the Enterprise is hit by a series of increasingly intense shock waves. Geordi reroutes warp power to the shields, but the wave becomes more intense. Data and the only surviving crew member of the Vico, a young boy named Timothy, figure out that the Vico was wiped out because it, too, diverted power to shields. Data alerts Picard to this theory.

  Did He Make It So? Worf lowers the shields and the wave dissipates because the wave grew in proportion to the strength of the ship's shields.
• 

  (#15) To Troi, Data, La Forge, and Worf In 'The Loss'

  What Was The Situation? Geordi, Data, and Troi have devised a solution to the two-dimensional being problem. Troi figures out that the beings are drawn to the cosmic string as an instinctual urge, much like a moth to a flame. Data suggests replicating the subspace frequency of the cosmic string's atomic particle decay. Geordi believes the Enterprise can use its parabolic dish to amplify and reflect those frequencies back to the cluster of two-dimensional beings.

  Did They Make It So? The simulation of the cosmic string works and causes the cluster to briefly change course, giving the Enterprise the opportunity to escape.
• 

  (#16) To Riker In 'The Neutral Zone'

  What Was The Situation? The Enterprise approaches Tarod IX, which has been wiped out by an unknown force. Riker suggests the Enterprise go to red alert, in case of a Romulan strike. Worf agrees. Picard, as the voice of reason, reminds his senior staff they're still investigating and to hold off on making a rash judgment. Riker compromises by recommending yellow alert status. Picard agrees.

  Did He Make It So? Yup. Taking a non-hostile posture pays off, as the cloaked Romulans in the area were testing the Enterprise to see if it would fire first.
• 

  (#17) To Riker In 'New Ground'

  What Was The Situation? A test of the new soliton wave transportation technology goes awry, destroying the test ship and damaging the Enterprise in the process. The wave grows in strength and is on a course to collide with the colony at Lemma II. A plan is devised to dissipate the wave with photon torpedoes; the result of those torpedoes blowing is the flooding of any decks meant to be covered by the aft shields, which were lost in the initial soliton wave mishap. Riker recommends evacuating sections 24 through 47 on decks 35 through 38.

  Did He Make It So? Yes, but more importantly, Worf has to save his son Alexander from a fire in one of the ship's biolabs.
• 

  (#18) To La Forge In 'The Quality of Life'

  What Was The Situation? Data believes the exocomps, worker droids designed to learn and adapt to a variety of situations, have achieved sentience. He points to an exocomp that refuses to enter a dangerous situation, which is a sign of self-preservation instinct. Geordi suggests putting that exocomp in a simulated threat scenario to see how it responds.

  Did He Make It So? The exocomp repairs a "malfunctioning" Jefferies tube, but also fixes the false alarm, proving the exocomp is smart enough to know the danger was a ruse.
• 

  (#19) To Riker In 'The Outrageous Okona'

  What Was The Situation? An interplanetary vessel locks lasers on the Enterprise. As even the smallest school-aged child knows, lasers can't even penetrate the Enterprise-D's navigational shields. But Commander Riker is a stickler for procedure, and regulations state that he must call for a yellow alert. Picard rolls his eyes at what he calls a "very old regulation," but he concurs.

  Did He Make It So? Yes, plus Picard orders the shields lowered and speed reduced. Picard is totally having a laugh here.
• 

  (#20) To Worf In 'Chain of Command, Part I'

  What Was The Situation? Picard, Worf, and Dr. Crusher are on a secret mission to infiltrate a Cardassian biological weapons installation on the border planet Celtris III. They have to move underground to reach the base, but to proceed through the caverns, they must widen the opening of a lava tube to crawl through it. Worf says that a phaser set to level 16 will be enough to widen the opening enough for people to climb into.

  Did He Make It So? Worf's phaser blast widens the opening by two feet, allowing them to pass through.
• 

  (#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.
• 

  (#22) To La Forge, Again, In 'Phantasms'

  What Was The Situation? In order to learn more about the interphasic parasites, Picard theorizes that they can examine Data's dreams. Geordi says they can interface with Data's positronic matrix, but it will take an hour to finish the procedure.

  Did He Make It So? They crack Data open and wander through his dreams. It becomes clear the interphasic parasites infected the warp core and have to be exterminated.
• 

  (#23) To La Forge And Dr. Crusher In 'Clues'

  What Was The Situation? The crew is increasingly suspicious of Data's story that they were only passed out for a few moments. There are signs that the crew were actually out cold for almost a day. Geordi suggests checking the ship's chronometer for evidence of tampering and Dr. Crusher wants to run a transporter trace analysis.

  Did They Make It So? Yup. Dr. Crusher uses data from the transporter to compare the molecular state of a crewperson from before the incident to after. The crewperson's cell function cycles were far enough apart to indicate a day had passed. Geordi finds that someone disabled the security program that prevents anyone from resetting the ship's clock. The only officers who can do that are Geordi and... Data!
• 

  (#24) To Data In 'Sub Rosa'

  What Was The Situation? Worf reports a malfunction in the ship's environmental controls. Temperatures are dropping across the ship. Deck 19 has lost gravity. Riker says they have traced the issue to the power transfer initiated to help the weather satellite stop the storms on Caldos IV. Data says he is unable to terminate the transfer beam, and that he will have to fix the problem from one of the colony's weather substations.

  Did He Make It So? Data discovers the groundskeeper for Beverly Crusher's grandmother's estate has dismantled the primary power conduit.
• 

  (#25) To Data In 'Cost of Living'

  What Was The Situation? The Enterprise is beset by a space parasite that feeds off nitrium that's stuck to the ship's hull. Data suggests an exanogen gas barrier, which is known to slow down the progress of metal parasites.

  Did He Make It So? Yes. It buys the crew some time while they come up with a means to coax the parasites off the hull.
• 

  (#26) To Data, Again, In 'The Pegasus'

  What Was The Situation? After entering the asteroid to salvage the Pegasus, the Romulans "accidentally" close the fissure and lock the Enterprise inside the rock. The Romulan commander, Sirol, offers the crew asylum aboard his ship. That would allow the Romulans to capture both the Pegasus and the Enterprise. Any attempt to cut through the asteroid from the inside would cause it to collapse, destroying both ships.

  In a panic, Riker suggests using secret technology onboard the Pegasus: an illicit Federation cloaking device that would allow the Enterprise to pass through solid matter. Riker thinks the cloak could be adapted for use on the Enterprise. Data says it is theoretically possible to do that, but it will take several hours to make it so.

  Did He Make It So? The cloak works and the Enterprise escapes. The ship decloaks in front of the Romulans, then Picard informs Sirol that Admiral Pressman and Starfleet flouted the Treaty of Algeron, which forbids the Federation from developing cloaking technology.
• 

  (#27) To Data In 'Encounter at Farpoint'

  What Was The Situation? The Enterprise-D drive section has separated from the saucer following an encounter with the omnipotent alien entity known only as Q. Commander Data has informed Picard that the ship has been cleared for standard parking orbit around the planet Deneb IV.

  Did He Make It So? He sure did. The Enterprise remains parked at Deneb IV until the Farpoint Station reveals itself to be an alien creature.
• 

  (#28) To Riker, Again, In 'The Child'

  What Was The Situation? The Enterprise has completed transferring the virus samples to 'aucdet IX Station and Commander Riker has informed Picard that they are ready to leave orbit.

  Did He Make It So? Yes, the Enterprise leaves orbit, and the episode ends.
• 

  (#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.
• 

  (#30) To Wesley In 'The Outrageous Okona'

  What Was The Situation? The Enterprise encounters a harmless small cargo vessel armed with only primitive lasers. Its guidance system is malfunctioning. Riker recommends setting an intercept course, in case the ship needs assistance. Picard concurs and orders Wesley to make it so.

  Did He Make It So? You bet. The ship is being piloted by the wacky space pirate Captain Okona. Outrageousness ensues.
• 

  (#31) To O'Brien In 'Unnatural Selection'

  What Was The Situation? An aggressive virus is causing the infected to age rapidly. O'Brien says they can use the transporter to filter out changes in Dr. Pulaski's DNA caused by the virus, but only if they can locate her trace pattern. Picard realizes that if they use a DNA sample from a recent blood test prior to her exposure to the disease, they can filter out the genetic change. To do that, O'Brien is ordered to patch a molecular matrix reader into the biofilter bus. He also has to concern himself with a possibly overloaded waveform modulator. Whatever that means.

  Did He Make It So? Yup. Dr. Pulaski goes back to being just kind of old instead of really old.
• 

  (#32) To Riker In 'The Vengeance Factor'

  What Was The Situation? The Enterprise is investigating the robbery of a Federation outpost, which the crew believe was carried out by a rogue group of Acamarians called "Gatherers" - space pirates that use the spoils of their thievery to sustain their society. Data finds evidence of a Gatherer camp on the planet Gamma Hromi Two. Riker suggests an away team beam down to have a look.

  Did He Make It So? Riker beams down with Worf, Geordi, and Data. They discover their suspicions were correct and make contact with the Gatherers.
• 

  (#33) To La Forge In 'The Mind's Eye'

  What Was The Situation? An unauthorized transport has taken place aboard the Enterprise, sending supplies to a rebel base on the Klingon Krios colony. Unbeknownst to the crew, Geordi was snatched and brainwashed by the Romulans into helping them aid the rebels' plan to destabilize the Klingon outpost - while framing Starfleet for the deed. Picard asks Geordi for help discovering the source of the unauthorized transport, so Geordi (who has no clue he's responsible) theorizes that he can find the answer by tracing power flows at the time of the incident.

  Did He Make It So? The plan works. Data and Geordi find out the transport took place in Cargo Bay Four, but there's no record of the transport. Only someone really, really smart could have falsified the transporter record. A really, really smart person like Geordi.
• 

  (#34) To La Forge In 'In Theory'

  What Was The Situation? The Enterprise must navigate a nebula that's tearing holes in the fabric of space and damages any matter that comes in contact with it. Riker and Geordi concoct a plan in which a shuttlecraft is piloted in front of the Enterprise to scan for anomalies, giving the ship the navigational lead time to avoid the holes in space.

  Did He Make It So? Picard himself volunteers to pilot the shuttlecraft.
• 

  (#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.
• 

  (#36) To La Forge In 'Booby Trap'

  What Was The Situation? The Enterprise has become ensnared in a trap laid by an ancient race that could wipe it out. Geordi deduces that the only way to escape the trap is to reduce the Enterprise's power and maneuver it out of the trap manually with only two thrusters.

  Did He Make It So? Picard agrees and declares he will be the one to pilot the ship out of the field.
• 

  (#37) To Riker In 'The Most Toys'

  What Was The Situation? The crew believe Data has perished in a shuttlecraft mishap. With a vital senior officer presumed gone, Picard must choose a crew member to replace Data at the Ops position. Riker suggests Worf for the role.

  Did He Make It So? Worf accepts the promotion, which he says honors the memory of his friend. What he doesn't know is that his friend is alive, captured by a collector of rare items named Kivas Fajo, who thinks Data (the last known android of his kind) is one of the rarest objects in the galaxy.
• 

  (#38) To Data In 'The Best of Both Worlds, Part I'

  What Was The Situation? "The USS Lalo departed Zeta Alpha Two on a freight run to Sentinel Minor Four. At twenty-two hundred hours and twelve minutes, a distress signal was received at Starbase 157. The Lalo reported contact with an alien vessel described as cube-shaped. The distress signal ended abruptly. She has not been heard from since." - Admiral Hanson

  Picard asks Data how long it will take to reach Starbase 157 at warp factor nine. Data responds: "One hour, 17 minutes, sir."

  Did He Make It So? "Mister Worf, dispatch a subspace message to Admiral Hanson. We have engaged the Borg." - Captain Picard
• 

  (#39) To Riker In 'The Best of Both Worlds, Part II'

  What Was The Situation? In Picard's ready room, Riker and Commander Shelby debrief their captain on what's next now that the Borg threat has been neutralized. Riker says a course to Station McKinley has been laid in, where the Enterprise will undergo repairs.

  Did He Make It So? A haunted Picard tells Riker to make it so, and the Enterprise limps home.
• 

  (#40) To Data, Again, In 'Clues'

  What Was The Situation? The Enterprise crew discover they have unwittingly encountered a xenophobic, isolationist alien species called the Paxans. Their memories of the incident were wiped, and Data was asked to maintain the ruse that the crew were only unconscious for a few moments. This was to prevent the Enterprise from getting curious enough to discover the Paxans' homeworld again. Picard agrees to another memory wipe, but this time with fewer clues to pique their curiosity when they wake up. Once the wipe is complete, the crew members awaken and Data once again suggests a probe to examine the class M planet. 

  Did He Make It So? This time, Picard is satisfied with the probe and Data's explanation. The ship departs Evadne IV.
• 

  (#41) To Data In 'The Hunted'

  What Was The Situation? Roga Danar, a super-soldier from the planet Angosia III, is attempting to flee captivity aboard the Enterprise so that he can go after the government that took away his freedom. Danar attempts to override the security system lockout via a workstation in Engineering. Picard wants Data to dupe Danar into thinking he's succeeding, which will buy Worf time to get to Engineering. Data suggests rerouting each subsystem as he bypasses them.

  Did He Make It So? Even though Danar is able to restore power to Shuttlebay 2, Data acts quickly and overrides Danar's bypass, shutting down the shuttlebay and preventing Danar from leaving the Enterprise. However, Danar eventually escapes anyway, because he's a super clever guy.
• 

  (#42) To Data In 'Identity Crisis'

  What Was The Situation? Geordi and Lieutenant Susanna Leijten have been infected by an alien parasite that is rewriting their DNA. Dr. Crusher cures Leijten, but not before Geordi leaves the Enterprise to return to the planet where he was initially infected. Data devises a plan in which they will modify an emergency beacon to operate on UV so that they can read the mutated Geordi's absorption spectrum and rescue him.

  Did He Make It So? Riker and the away team are able to find Geordi, get him off the planet, and return him to the ship, where Dr. Crusher removes the parasite.
• 

  (#43) To Wesley In 'The Schizoid Man'

  What Was The Situation? On their way to assist the sickly quantum physicist Dr. Ira Graves, the Enterprise crew receive a distress signal from a transport ship. In order to solve both issues at once, Worf suggests executing a long-range transport of an away team to treat Dr. Graves's illness while the Enterprise leaves orbit to aid the transport.

  Did He Make It So? Wesley executes an extended touch-and-go orbit of the planet Gravesworld, while Geordi is given the responsibility of beaming Riker, Data, Worf, Troi, and Dr. Pulaski down to the surface from a less than optimal distance. Everyone is saved.
• 

  (#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.
• 

  (#45) To Data In 'All Good Things...'

  What Was The Situation? Future Picard convinces his ex-wife, Captain Crusher of the medical ship USS Pasteur, to find a spatial anomaly that threatens the entire universe. But he'll need security clearance to cross the Klingon border. Of course, the only Klingon they know who could help is Worf, governor of a small colony near the border. Picard decides that asking Worf is the best solution to their problem and tells Future Data to make it so.

  Did He Make It So? After Picard shamelessly appeals to his sense of honor, Worf agrees to let the Pasteur cross into Klingon space, but under one condition: Worf gets to tag along on the mission.
• 

  (#46) To Worf In 'A Matter of Honor'

  What Was The Situation? Space organisms attach themselves to a Klingon bird of prey and the Enterprise during an officer exchange program that puts Riker on a Klingon ship. The organisms eat away at both ships' hulls, raising tensions between the two vessels. As the ships prepare for an exchange of hostilities, Data assumes that Riker's Klingon ship is cloaked. He recommends going to red alert. Picard tells Worf to make it so.

  Did He Make It So? He does. Shields are raised, which the Klingon bird of prey notices and takes as further hostility.
• 

  (#47) To Riker and Crusher In 'Schisms'

  What Was The Situation? Aliens are making off with Enterprise crew members and experimenting on them. Riker has volunteered to be injected with a stimulant developed by Dr. Crusher to counteract the sedative the aliens are using to keep their subjects from attempting escape. This will allow Riker to discover who is behind the abductions and where they come from.

  Did They Make It So? Crusher injects Riker with the sedative, he wakes up in the alien operating room, grabs a fellow Enterprise crew member, and leaps through a rift in space the aliens were using to board the Enterprise undetected.
• 

  (#48) To Haro In 'Allegiance'

  What Was The Situation? The real Picard has convinced his fellow captives to attempt an escape. A Starfleet cadet (or so she claims) named Haro declares she will cross-circuit the mechanism for the door via an exposed panel.

  Did She Make It So? Haro is able to open the door a single inch before it shuts again. Energy beams strike the prisoners as punishment for their escape attempt. Eventually, Picard figures out that Haro is a member of the alien species holding him captive and is an active participant in the experiment they're conducting on the nature of leadership.
• 

  (#49) To La Forge In 'The Nth Degree'

  What Was The Situation? While examining a probe near the Argus Array telescope, Lt. Barclay is hit by an energy surge from the probe that gives him superhuman abilities. Super Barclay hooks himself up to the Enterprise computer and changes its course. Geordi explains that they can't simply remove Barclay from the computer without mortally harming him.

  Data says that while Barclay has control over most of the ship, he has yet to take over the Engineering subsystems. An ODN bypass of the Engineering subsystems would allow the crew to access propulsion so they can reroute the ship to the nearest starbase.

  Did He Make It So? Geordi attempts the ODN bypass, but Barclay blocks it, then sends the Enterprise to the center of the galaxy to meet the alien species that has given him his powers.
• 

  (#50) To Data In 'Clues'

  What Was The Situation? In the midst of an investigation into a new class M planet, the Enterprise encounters a wormhole and everyone except Data loses consciousness. When the crew wakes up, Data suggests firing a probe into the wormhole rather than having the Enterprise enter the anomaly. 

  Did He Make It So? Yes, but the probe registers the presence of a gas giant planet rather than the class M the crew came to discover.
