While searching for survivors from the freighter Odin, the Enterprise comes across Angel One – a planet with a matriarchal society.

This place is right up Riker’s alley, and he quickly get the attention of the head boss lady. The Odin survivors are considered fugitives. Oh yeah, there’s a virus loose on the ship, and Doc Crusher needs to find a cure before it is too late.

I summarize the plot and point out and explain all the references so you don’t have to.
