everyone's a threat!"

That quote spoken by one of this episode's guest characters reveals the not-so-subtle indictment on the pros and cons of terrorism. In one of the series' most balanced installments, the writers have created a highly thought-provoking piece that correlates the similarity between the terrorist and the patriot.

When the episode first aired, one could clearly see that an intended comparison was to be made between it and the ongoing struggles in the Middle East. In light of the current world situation, the story has not lost its edge.

This is another triumph from the brilliant third season of the show.

I really enjoyed this episode, it is a Bev-centric episode, so if you like her, you will like this episode. She and Picard get kidnapped by terrorists, one of whom develops a thing for her, while Riker works with officials to find them.
