Watching this particular TNG story I was put in mind of the island of Hispaniola,
the island in the Carribean Sea that has two countries, Haiti and the Domican
Republic. Over the centuries two nations evolved on that island and on this
planet the Enterprise is visiting there are two civilizations. One has applied for
Federation admission the other hasn't. And they don't like each other much.
A dilemma for Captain Picard and Dr. Crusher when they beam down and land in the wrong country. A big dilemma for Commander Riker as he tries all kinds of ways to get his captain and doctor back.
For Jonathan Frakes he feels like a UN mediator negotiating between Robin Gemmell of one group and Lenore Kasdorf of the other. He has to take some drastic action to get the two in the same room.
As for Patrick Stewart and Gates McFadden some intimate thoughts are exchanged that were never meant to be voiced. Watch the episode to see what an why.
