Star Trek: Generations
Sent to the Amargosa Observatory to investigate a distress call, the
U.S.S. Enterprise finds two dead Romulans and five humans left alive
after a mysterious and brutal attack. One of these survivors is a Dr. Tolian
Soran.
While Data watches in abject terror,
Soran kidnaps La Forge, taking him to a cloaked Klingon ship. When
questioning La Forge proves unsuccessful, Soran releases the starship
officer—after modifying his VISOR to transmit its signals back to the
Klingon vessel.
Soran then fires a trilithium probe into the sun, which causes an
incredible shock wave. The Klingon ship, on which he is a passenger, is
commanded by the Klingon Duras sisters. In exchange for the formula for
Soran's trilithium explosive, they have agreed to take him to the planet
Veridian III, where he wants to conduct another solar implosion.
On
board the U.S.S. Enterprise, Picard learns that Soran is 300 years
old and, like Guinan, a survivor of the El-Aurian incident that killed
Captain Kirk. In an effort to understand what is happening, Picard finally
goes to Guinan. She tells him that the energy ribbon, called the Nexus, is a
temporal anomaly moving through space. To anyone or anything inside the
Nexus, linear time has no meaning and a person can experience anything that
he or she desires. Soran is desperate to return to the Nexus and recreate
that joy with the family he lost when his world was assimilated by the Borg.
In Stellar Cartography, Picard and an emotionally troubled Data plot the
course of the Nexus and the changes that have occurred since the sun was
destroyed. They conclude that Soran plans to destroy another sun when the
Nexus passes close to the Veridian system—killing as many as 230 million
inhabitants . Destroying the suns alters spacial forces, thereby changing
the path of the Nexus. With the Veridian sun destroyed, the Nexus will then
pass along the surface of Veridian III, allowing Soran to re-enter the
phenomenon.
Picard, learning of the situation, beams down to Veridian III to try to
dissuade Soran. In the meantime, La Forge has been returned to the U.S.S.
Enterprise in exchange for Picard; the Duras sisters watch with great
interest as La Forge moves about the ship. Finally they see what they've
been waiting for—the U.S.S. Enterprise deflector shield modulation.
Seizing this information, the cloaked Bird-of-Prey fires through the
starship's deflector shields, severely damaging the U.S.S. Enterprise.
Ultimately, however, the U.S.S. Enterprise succeeds in destroying the
Klingon warbird, killing all aboard. Unfortunately Soran has already beamed
down to the planet Veridian III.
Due
to damage sustained by the Klingon's attack, the Enterprise suffers a
warp-core breach and Riker orders the saucer section separated. Before he
can get the saucer away safely, however, the battle section explodes,
hurtling the saucer and its entire crew toward the surface of Veridian III.
After a terrifying ride, the U.S.S. Enterprise saucer crash lands on
the planet's surface. Fortunately, most of the crew are uninjured.
Elsewhere on the planet's surface, Picard and Soran fight to the death as
the Nexus rapidly approaches. Soran manages to fire his trilithium probe
into the sun, destroying it as the ribbon engulfs both men, taking them
inside the Nexus. In their wake, the inhabitants of the Veridian system, as
well as the survivors from the U.S.S. Enterprise, are engulfed in a
giant cloud of fire.
For a time, Picard is bewildered but delighted to be spending Christmas
with his large, happy family—a family he's never had the time to start. But
then, just as the captain gazes at a sparkling ornament, he is suddenly
reminded that this experience is not real and that he must get on with his
mission.
With
Guinan's help, Picard finds a slightly puzzled but happy James T. Kirk in
the Nexus. Kirk wasn't killed 78 years earlier on the U.S.S. Enterprise
NCC-1701-B, but was drawn into the Nexus instead. The two Enterprise
captains leave the Nexus and materialize on Veridian III, just as Soran is
preparing to set off his solar bomb. This time, Kirk grapples with Soran
while Picard races to sabotages the probe.
The launch mechanism explodes into a giant fireball, killing Soran and
preventing the destruction of the entire Veridian system. Picard runs to
Kirk, where he stays until the former captain of the U.S.S. Enterprise
dies.
Returning to the crashed ship,
Picard assures
his crew that the "D" was
not likely to be the last ship named "Enterprise."

situation in the Gamma Quadrant. As Sisko, Bashir and Dax beam down
something goes wrong with the transporter and they never arrive at Starfleet
Headquarters. While O'Brien and Kira try to figure out where they went,
Bashir and Sisko are arrested as vagrants outside a metro station in the
year 2024. Dax is luckier and is rescued by a passer by and given assistance
in obtaining credentials. Bashir and Sisko are taken to a compound where the
