This reminds me of Raphie and his decoder ring in "A Christmas Story".

This episode begins with one of Picard's old professors coming to the Enterprise to ask Jean-Luc to quit his job and follow him on some expedition. The Captain isn't about to do this, though he is hesitant to disappoint the man. Well, after telling him about this, the professor leaves--and is soon attacked! It seems that the Klingons and Cardassians are after the same thing the professor wants--the answer to a puzzle buried within our DNA! After a while, the Romulans also join in the hunt and it seems that everyone is hoping the answer would be power to smite their enemies. The real answer, however is a HUGE disappointment to some--especially the Klingons who just want to kill something!

This is an okay episode...just okay. This is because of all these warlike races coming together, you'd expect much more excitement and mayhem. It lacks both and is only moderately interesting.
