7/10
If you take it out of Enterprise.
23 August 2023
The intent of this episode from the outset is to connect Enterprise back to the shows it spun off from. In this it succeeds, but the result is that it fails as a finale.

The entire episode follows Commander Riker of The Next Generation as he observes a holodeck recreation of the events leading the the signing of the Federation charter. The Enterprise crew are detached from the rest of their run as the events take place seven years after the rest of the show. But the episode itself isn't a bad product.

So, as a finale, it's a 3/10 but it is vastly improved if treated as a TNG episode, watched instead right after Pegasus. In this context, the relative quality elevates it to a respectably average 6/10, with potential nostalgia pushing that to a 7, depending on your attachment to Enterprise characters.
