Feeling out of place and obsolete, Scotty agrees to return to his vessel with Geordi to help restore the logs, and they become the only hope when the Enterprise is accidentally pulled inside the sphere.

Jack's Review
I recall not liking this one much when it first aired. I mean, season 7 has its share of stinkers (Sub Rosa, Dark Page, Masks, Emergence, Journey's End, etc.) but after several viewings, I really like this one. Paul Sorvino is wonderful and the care and compassion shown to the people they save is really well done. The only bad thing is that Nikolai Rozhenko feels like a throw-away character. He should have been Worf's uncle because of the age disparity too.
