Encounter at Farpoint ( episode ) Captain Jean - Luc Picard leads the crew of the USS " Enterprise " - D on its maiden voyage , to examine a new planetary station for trade with the Federation . On the way , they encounter Q , an omnipotent extra - dimensional being , who challenges Humanity as a barbaric , inferior species . Picard and his new crew must hold off Q ' s challenge and solve the puzzle of Farpoint station on Deneb IV , a base that is far more than it seems to be . ( " Series premiere " ) Summary . Act One . The year is 2364 . Captain Jean - Luc Picard takes command of the new starship , the , the fifth Federation ship to bear the name " Enterprise " . The vessel is about to embark on its first mission to Deneb IV , beyond which lies the great unexplored mass of the galaxy . Picard , in his log , notes that he is impressed with the size and complexity of the ship as he walks through the " Enterprise " , surveying engineering , then finally enters the bridge , manned by tactical officer Lieutenant Natasha Yar , Lieutenant Worf , Counselor Deanna Troi and Lieutenant Commander Data . Picard continues with his log , in which he reports that the ship is en route to Farpoint Station and that the ship is short in several key positions , most notably a first officer , but Picard is informed that a very experienced officer , William T . Riker , will fill the position . Picard sits at his command chair and makes an off - hand comment on how Starfleet wants the crew of the " Enterprise " to " snoop " around Farpoint station , to which Data makes an inquiry into the definition of the word snoop . Picard wonders how Data , a complex android with encyclopedic knowledge does not know the meaning of a basic word like " snoop " . Data responds that he possibly was not designed to emulate this type of Human behavior . Picard says that it means " to spy , to sneak . " Data responds , " " Ah , to seek covertly , to go stealthily , to slink , slither , creep , skulk , pussyfoot , gum . . . " " " " Yes " " Picard interjects , to which Data finishes , " " . . . shoe . " " Suddenly , Counselor Troi senses a powerful mind . The ship then goes to red alert , with the familiar alert sound blaring through the bridge . Then , conn officer Lieutenant Torres reports that there is something strange on his detector circuit . A large field begins to appear in front of the " Enterprise " , which reads as solid . Picard calls for Yar to turn off " that damned noise ! " and go to yellow alert . Picard orders helm to make the ship come to a full stop . Soon after controls read full stop , a white light shines on the bridge and a humanoid emerges , dressed from 16th century Europe . Picard asks the being to identify itself . The being notes that he is called " Q " and walks around the bridge , while Torres discreetly takes a small phaser out from the bottom of his console . Q , however senses this and freezes Torres before he can fire . Q , after showing his ability , warns the crew of the " Enterprise " to go back to Earth or they shall most certainly die . Act Two . Later , Q changes into many costumes of Earth ' s eras , including the late 20th century ( 1980s ) in the guise of a United States Marine Corps captain : " " Actually , the issue at stake is patriotism . We must go back to your world and put an end to the commies . All it takes are a few good men . " " Picard tells Q that that kind of nonsense is centuries behind them . Q brings up that Picard cannot deny that Humans are a dangerous , savage child race , which Picard denies , saying that Humans have made rapid progress in only a few centuries . Q then changes again , thinking Picard and his crew will be able to identify with the period that he next embodies , that of a soldier in the late 21st century , where Q notes that Humans learned to control their militaries through drugs . The other officer s , not amused with Q ' s behavior , attempt to make him leave , but Q keeps on heaping disapproval on Humans , noting that when they finally reached deep space , they found enemies to fight out there as well , which Q says is " the same old story all over again . " Picard says that Q is the same old story they have been seeing , self - righteous beings who prosecute and judge for things they can ' t understand nor tolerate . Q notes that " prosecute and judge " is an interesting concept . He then begins to leave , but notes that he will be back and will proceed the way Picard suggests . Picard , who gets many suggestions from his senior staff , orders that no stations on the ship will make audio transmissions , only print - out , in an attempt to catch Q off guard , with Picard noting , " " Let ' s see what this " Galaxy " - class starship can do . " " Picard orders Worf to head down to engineering and have them prepare for maximum acceleration . Picard also asks Data if it is possible to perform a saucer separation at a high warp velocity . Data notes that the separation is inadvisable at any warp speed , however , it is theoretically possible , but there can be no margin for error . Worf returns from engineering , with the report that the engine room is ready , and takes his position at the helm . Picard orders " " Engage " " , the ship turns away from Q ' s force field and warps away . The entire force field collapses into a ball and heads towards the " Enterprise " . The object is at high warp speed , at warp 9 . 6 , and the " Enterprise " increases speed accordingly . However , the object is increasing speed . Data notes that the " Enterprise " may be able to match the object ' s 9 . 8 warp , but at extreme risk . However , the object reaches warp 9 . 9 while the " Enterprise " is only at warp 9 . 5 . Picard , seeing no other alternative , calls out to the entire ship , " " Now hear this , printout message , urgent , all stations , all decks , prepare for emergency saucer sep . " " The bridge officers are shocked at this new order . Picard orders Worf to command the saucer section , while Picard commands the battle section . Worf stands up from his conn station and tells Picard , " " I am a Klingon , sir . For me to seek escape when my captain goes into battle . . . " " , to which Picard bluntly overrules him and reminds him that he is a Starfleet officer . Worf grudgingly agrees . Picard , along with Yar , Troi , and Data take the bridge ' s emergency turbolift to the battle bridge . Act Three . The " Enterprise " s corridors are filled with crewmembers and families leaving the stardrive section to the saucer section . Picard , Data , Yar and Troi enter the battle bridge , with Chief Miles O ' Brien manning the conn . First , Picard orders that Yar fire photon torpedo es towards the object . Yar complies and the torpedoes are away . Shortly after , Picard orders that the countdown to saucer separation begin . Data counts down , and the ship separates while at warp . The stardrive section turns around and heads towards a confrontation with Q . The stardrive section arrives to see the torpedoes hit the object , however , it has no effect , the point being that the detonation of the torpedoes masked the getaway of the saucer section . Picard asks Troi to send out a message in all languages that they surrender . Then , the stardrive section is soon encompassed by a sphere - shaped force field and bright white light surrounds the battle bridge . Picard , Troi , Data and Yar are taken to a World War III - style courtroom , which Troi reveals that everything that is happening is real , even the soldiers with lethal weapons . The magistrate orders everyone in the courtroom to stand as the judge enters . The judge is revealed to be Q , who charges Humanity of being a grievously savage race , to which Yar is unable to control her anger and starts to berate Q , saying that she comes from a world where a similar " court " was commonplace , and that it took people like her Starfleet comrades to save her from such atrocities . Q then freezes Yar , the same way he did to Torres . Outraged , Picard demands that Q uphold his promise that " the prisoners would not be harmed " and thaw out Yar , which he does , much to the crowd ' s displeasure . Picard pleads not guilty to Q ' s charges . Q does not take kindly to this and has two soldiers aim their weapons at Data and Troi , ordering them to push the triggers if Picard says anything other than guilty . Act Four . Picard , forced into a tight spot , admits that there is indeed evidence to support the court ' s contention that Humans have been savage . Therefore , he asks Q to test the crew of the " Enterprise " to see if this is presently true of Humans . Q is fascinated by this idea and tells Picard that the Farpoint station will be an excellent site for this test . Picard , with his crew are transported back to the battle bridge , where O ' Brien has been the entire time . O ' Brien claims that he has heard that Farpoint is a rather dull place but Picard hears that it might be rather interesting . On Deneb IV , Commander William T . Riker walks to Groppler Zorn ' s office . Riker has just been dropped off by the for his new assignment . He talks with Zorn for a while , and Zorn asks him if he would like a piece of fruit off of his desk . Riker looks for an apple , but cannot find one . Then , a bowl of apples suddenly shows up on Zorn ' s desk , which Riker swears could not have been there two seconds ago . Zorn assures him that it has been there the whole time . Riker then leaves eating the apple , while Zorn , alone in his office , says " " You have been told " not " to do that . It will arouse their suspicion , and if that happens , we will have to punish you . We will ! I promise you ! " " Meanwhile , at Farpoint Station , Riker meets up at Farpoint ' s mall with the beautiful Dr . Beverly Crusher and her son , Wesley , who is eagerly anticipating joining the " Enterprise " . Riker asks Dr . Crusher if there is something useful they can do while they wait for the ship to arrive . For example Riker tells Crusher about the apple incident at Zorn ' s office , which Dr . Crusher dismisses as Riker attempting to pull favor with the captain , as she is shopping . She sees a purple bolt and says that gold would look great on it , then five seconds later , a gold pattern appears on the fabric . Dr . Crusher later apologizes to Riker and that she looks forward to meeting Picard , which Riker wonders if she knows the captain . Wesley solemnly tells Riker that when he was a child , Picard brought his father ' s body back to them . Dr . Crusher notes that it was a long time ago and ends the conversation . Riker tells Wesley that he ' ll see him on board . Riker then meets up with blind Starfleet officer Lieutenant Geordi La Forge , who makes an official report that the " Enterprise " has arrived , but with the stardrive section only and that Captain Picard has requested his presence . Riker taps his combadge and is beamed up to the " Enterprise " . Act Five . Once aboard , the commander is greeted by Lieutenant Yar , who escorts him to the battle bridge . Riker arrives and is not greeted warmly by Picard , who tells him to watch the video recording of Q , so he ' ll know what the ship is facing . Picard leaves the bridge for the ready room and asks Riker to enter once he is done watching the recording . Riker enters and Picard asks him to perform a manual docking of the stardrive section and the saucer section , a difficult task . The saucer section enters orbit of Deneb IV , ready for reconnection . Riker asks O ' Brien to adjust the pitch angle , then assures , with the stardrive ' s velocity being zero , that its inertia should finish the job . Riker orders the lock up of the stardrive and saucer , and thus the " Enterprise " is successfully reconnected . In the ship ' s conference lounge , Picard discusses with Riker during an incident on the planet Altair III , when he refused to let Captain Robert DeSoto of the USS " Hood " beam down to the planet , seeing that a captain ' s life could be in danger . Picard tests him by suggesting that Riker doesn ' t respect a captain ' s authority , which Riker denies , only to state that preserving a captain ' s life takes priority over obeying his orders . Picard asks him if he intends to back down from that policy . Riker confidently says " " No , sir . " " Confident in Riker ' s loyalty , Picard proceeds to express his discomfort with the substantial number of families and particularly children aboard the " Enterprise " and orders Riker ' s assistance in ensuring Picard project the image of geniality expected of a starship Captain , to which Riker agrees . Then , Captain Picard formally welcomes Riker on board the " Enterprise " and shakes his hand . Riker enters the bridge of the " Enterprise " for the first time , when he inquires to Lt . Worf as to the location of Lieutenant Commander Data . Worf reports that Data is on special assignment , escorting an admiral around the ship , who took a shuttle to the " Enterprise " to inspect the new vessel ' s medical layout . When asked why the admiral couldn ' t have just beamed over instead of taking a shuttle , Worf responds , " " Well , I suppose he could , sir , but the admiral is a rather . . . remarkable man . " " In a corridor , Admiral Leonard McCoy , conducting an inspection , claims that Data wanted his atoms scattered all over space . However , Data claims that with his age , he should not have to bother with the time and trouble of a shuttlecraft . McCoy stops walking and asks Data " " What about my age ? " " Data apologizes , if the subject of his age bothers McCoy . " " Troubles me ? What so damn troublesome about not having died ? ! " " , McCoy exclaims . The admiral then asks Data just how old he thinks he is . Data reports quickly that he is 137 years old , according to Starfleet records . McCoy wonders how he can remember that so exactly . Data replies that he remembers everything he is exposed to . McCoy sarcastically says that Data may not have pointed ears , but that he sounds like a Vulcan , only to claim that the actual fact that he is an android is " almost as bad , " much to Data ' s puzzlement over his own perception of Vulcans as an advanced and respected race . McCoy replies , " " They are , they are – and damn annoying at times . " " While continuing to walk down the corridor , McCoy tells Data to treat the " Enterprise " like a lady and that she will always bring him and the crew home . Act Six . Later , on the bridge , Q appears on the " Enterprise " s main viewscreen and tells Picard that his time is running out . Worf reacts by pointing a phaser at him , but Picard restrains him , pointing out that he would be shooting the viewscreen instead of Q himself . Picard states that they will proceed the same regardless of Q ' s involvement , stating that , " " If we ' re going to be damned , let ' s be damned for what we really are . " " In Picard ' s ready room , Riker then tells the captain about objects appearing when thought of on the planet . Picard is a bit skeptical about Riker ' s observations and orders Counselor Troi to join him and Riker on an away mission , which results in an awkward reunion on the bridge between Troi and Riker , her Imzadi . Picard meets Zorn , but Zorn immediately becomes fearful since there is a Betazoid at the meeting . Troi assures Zorn that she is only half - Betazoid and that she can only sense strong emotions in people . She then feels a strong flood of emotions coming from somewhere , namely pain and loneliness . Picard begins to leave , and tells Zorn that the Federation may not protect Farpoint anymore , to which Zorn says that the station may become vulnerable to species like the Ferengi , to which Picard replies , " " Fine , let ' s hope they find you as tasty as they did their past associates . " " Later , on the " Enterprise " - D , Riker finally meets Data in the ship ' s holodeck , where the android is in a forest program trying to whistle " Pop Goes the Weasel " . He requests Data ' s participation in the away mission , to which Data agrees . They then proceed to discuss Data ' s background and his studies at the Academy , with Data admitting that , while superior to Humans in many ways , he would rather be Human . Act Seven . As Riker and Data discuss the intricacies of the holodeck technology , Wesley enters the holodeck , excited about the potential of the technology , but accidentally falls into a pond , only to be rescued singlehandedly by Data . They exit as Picard is walking down a corridor , Riker stating that he is leading an away mission down to Deneb IV , and Wesley apologetically dripping water on the corridor carpet . Riker then leads a team to explore more of Farpoint Station , with Yar , La Forge , Data and Troi . They go underground into tunnels , where Troi again senses great despair and pain . Wesley asks his mother to let him see the bridge . Crusher hadn ' t met Picard since her husband died , and goes with Wesley to see him on the bridge . Taken aback , Picard lets Wesley in the bridge , though suddenly an unexpected ship appears . Act Eight . Zorn insists he does not know the ship or expect one . The ship scans the Enterprise and begins attacking the surface of Deneb IV , though only the Old Bandi City rather than the station . On the surface , the away team loses communication and exits the base into the city on hearing the attack . The conspicuous targeted attack leads Picard to suggest that Zorn may have more information about the aliens than he is letting on and orders Riker to seize him ( admittedly illegally ) so that they may interrogate him further . After he confirms with Troi that attacking the ship will not violate the Prime Directive and orders phasers prepared , Q appears . Act Nine . Q says he expected force from Picard , when the motives of the ship should be clear . Picard orders the Enterprise in between the ship and the planet , but Worf says his control has been lost . In the Bandi city , Riker and Data find Zorn , who is now willing to explain , however , he is transported out of his office while he screams in horror . Riker reports in to Picard about Zorn ' s abduction , speculating that Q might be responsible . Q mocks the crew for not knowing who abducted Zorn , but then Troi reports a feeling of satisfaction emanating from the alien vessel . Riker and Data return to the " Enterprise " . Q goads Picard into ordering an away team onto the vessel , which Picard resists , but Riker volunteers , independent of Q ' s mocking . Act Ten . Riker and the away team beam over to the entity and see that its corridors are exactly the same as the underground tunnels on Deneb IV . They find Zorn suspended in mid - air , being tortured . Riker and Data fire their phasers and free him . Suddenly , the ship pulses . Picard attempts to beam the away team back from the entity , but is unsuccessful . Q returns , now wearing the uniform of a Starfleet captain , and informs him that the time of the test has expired . Picard begs Q to let him rescue his people , even to the point of promising to do whatever he says if he does so . At that exact moment , the away team is transported back to the " Enterprise " , and Q and Picard appear ready to honor that hastily made bargain . However , Troi points out that it was the entity , not Q , that returned the away team to the " Enterprise " . Soon , the captain realizes the truth : the Bandi have captured an alien lifeform , a space - dwelling being , and have constructed Farpoint Station and its goods by feeding off its power ; feeding it the energy it needs just enough to keep it alive so it can morph into any shape Farpoint wants . The ship in space is not actually a ship , but rather the alien life - form ' s mate . Picard assists the captured alien by using the " Enterprise " s phasers to deliver an energy beam to the entity allowing it to break free of its bonds , thus solving the mystery much to Q ' s dismay . Q then retreats , though he hints that it won ' t be the last time the crew sees him . With the Farpoint mission over , the crew settles in . Picard asks Riker if he has a problem . Riker replies that he wonders if all their missions will be like their first . Picard assures him that he doesn ' t think so – they should be much more interesting . Picard orders Lt . La Forge to set a course , " " Let ' s see what ' s out there . Engage . " " Memorable quotes . " " Would you agree , Mr . Data , that Starfleet ' s orders are difficult ? " " " " Difficult ? Simply solve the mystery of Farpoint Station . " " " " Simple as that . " " " " Farpoint Station . Even the name sounds mysterious . " " " " Captain , I ' m sensing a . . . a powerful mind ! " " " " Shut off that damn noise ! Go to yellow alert . " " " " Thou art notified that thy kind hath infiltrated the galaxy too far already . Thou art directed to return to thine own solar system immediately . " " " " That ' s quite a directive . Would you mind identifying what you are ? " " " " We call ourselves the Q . Or thou mayest call me that . It ' s all much the same thing . I present myself to thee as a fellow ship captain so that thou mayest understand me . Go back whence thou camest . " " " ' Knowing Humans as thou dost , captain , wouldst thou be captured helpless by them ? " " " " Actually , the issue at stake is patriotism . You must go back to your world and put an end to the Commies . All it takes is a few good men ! " " " " He ' s frozen ! " " " " That nonsense is centuries behind us ! " " " " But you can ' t deny , captain , that you are still a dangerous , savage child race . " " " " Most certainly , I deny it . I agree we still were , when Humans wore costumes like that four hundred years ago . " " " " At which time you slaughtered millions in silly arguments about how to divide the resources of your little world . And four hundred years before that , you were murdering each other in quarrels over tribal god images . Since then , there has been no indication that Humans will ever change . " " " " But even when we wore costumes like that , we were still making rapid progress ! " " " " Oh yeah ? You want to review your ' rapid progress ? " ' " " " Sir , sickbay reports Lieutenant Torres ' condition is better . " " " " Oh , concern for one ' s fellow comrade ! How touching . " " " " And now a personal request , sir ; permission to clean up the bridge ! " " " " Lieutenant Worf is right . As security chief , I can ' t just stand here and let – " " " " Yes you can , Lieutenant Yar ! " " " " And later , on finally reaching deep space , Humans found enemies to fight out there , too . And to broaden those struggles , you again found allies for still more murdering ! The same old story all over again ! " " " " No , the same old story is the one we ' re meeting now . Self - righteous lifeforms who are eager , not to learn but to prosecute , to judge anything they don ' t understand or can ' t tolerate . " " " " What an interesting idea ! Prosecute and judge ! But suppose it turns out that we understand you Humans only too well . " " " " We have no fear what the true facts about us will reveal . " " " " Facts about you ? Splendid , splendid , captain ! You ' re a veritable fountain of ideas . There are preparations to make , but when we next meet , captain , we ' ll proceed exactly as you suggest . " " " " Let ' s see what this " Galaxy " - class starship can do ! " " " " The prisoners will not be harmed . . . until they ' re found guilty . " " " " I grew up in a world that allowed things like this court ! And it was people like these that saved me from it ! This so - called court should get down on its " knees " to what Starfleet is ! What it represents ! " " " " I recognize this court as the one that agreed with that line from Shakespeare : ' Kill all the lawyers ! ' " " " " Which was done . " " " " Leading to the rule : Guilty until proven innocent . " " " " Of course , bringing the innocent to trial would be unfair . You will now answer to the charge of being a grievously savage race ! ! " " " " Grievously savage could mean anything . I will answer only specific charges . " " " " Are you certain you want a full disclosure of Human ugliness ? So be it , fool . " " " " Criminal ! You will read the charges to the court ! " " " " I see no charges against " us " , Your Honor . " " " " You have been told " not " to do that ! Why can ' t you understand ? It will arouse their suspicions , and if that happens , we will have to punish you ! We will ! ! I promise you ! ! " " " " Captain , the Ferengi would be very interested in a base like this ! " " " " Fine . Let ' s hope they find you as tasty as they did their past associates . " " " " Do you know anything about Farpoint Station , sir ? Sounds like a fairly dull place . " " " " We ' ve heard that we may find it rather interesting . " " " " He calls " that " a little adventure ? " " " " Now hear this ! Maximum , you ' re entitled to know , means we ' ll be pushing our engines well beyond safety limits . Our hope is to surprise whatever that is out there , to try and outrun it . Our only other option is to tuck tail between our legs and return to Earth as they demand . " " " " Commander , signal the following in all languages and in all frequencies : we surrender . " " " " What the hell ? Children are " not " allowed on the bridge ! " " " " Get off the bridge , both of you ! " " " " You will command the saucer section , lieutenant . " " " " I am a Klingon , sir . For me to seek escape when my captain goes into battle . . . " " " " You are a Starfleet officer , lieutenant ! " " " " A captain ' s rank means nothing to you . " " " " Rather the reverse , sir . But a captain ' s life means a great deal more to me . " " " " A personal favor , I ' d appreciate it if you could prevent me from making an ass of myself with children . " " " " Sir ? " " " " I ' m not a family man , Riker , and yet Starfleet has seen fit to give me a ship with children aboard . " " " " Yes , sir . " " " " And I ' m . . . not comfortable with children . But since a captain is supposed to project an image of geniality , you ' re to see that ' s what I project . " " " " Yes , sir . " " " " Welcome to the " Enterprise " , Commander Riker . " " " " Where will I find Commander Data ? " " " " Commander Data is on special assignment , sir - he is using our shuttlecraft to transfer an admiral over to the " Hood " . " " " An " admiral " ? " " " He ' s been aboard all day , sir , checking over medical layouts . . . " " " " Why a shuttlecraft ? Why wouldn ' t he just beam over ? " " " " I suppose he " could " , sir , but the admiral is a rather . . . remarkable man . " " " " Something ' s happening , sir ! " " " " Have you got some reason why you want my atoms scattered all over space , boy ? ! " " " " I don ' t see no points on your ears , boy , but you sound like a Vulcan ! " " " " No , sir . I am an android . " " " " Hmph . Almost as bad . " " " " Well this is a new ship . But she ' s got the right name . Now you remember that , you hear ? " " " " I will sir . " " " " You treat her like a lady . And she ' ll always bring you home . " " " " If we ' re going to be damned , let ' s be damned for what we really are . " " " " Do you consider yourself superior to Humans ? " " " " I am superior , sir , in many ways . But I would gladly give it up , to be Human . " " " " Nice to meet you , Pinocchio ! " " " " A joke . " " " " Hmm . Intriguing . " " " You ' re going to be an interesting companion , Mr . Data . " " " " Sir , maybe I should get something to wipe this water up . " " " " Good idea . " " " " Either leave or finish us ! " " " " Temper , temper " mon capitaine " , I ' m merely trying to assist a pitiful species . " " " " I ' ll attend to my duty . " " " " To the bitter end ? " " " " I see nothing so bitter about that . " " " " Perhaps you and I ? " " " " Tasha , you and the counselor . And Geordi , I want your eyes down there . " " " " Would you object to your captain ordering a clearly " illegal " kidnapping ? " " " " Lucky guess . I see now that it was too simple a puzzle . Generosity has always been my . . . weakness . " " " " Send it to our starship when it arrives . Charge to Dr . Crusher . " " " " Captain ? Wonderful ! A feeling of great joy and gratitude ! Great joy and gratitude from both of them . " " " " Some problem , Riker ? " " " " Just hoping this isn ' t the usual way our missions will go , sir . " " " " Oh no , Number One . I ' m sure most will be much more interesting .
