Stardate 41636.9: The crew travels to a planet with a matriarchal society.
Searching for survivors from a freighter that's been missing for seven years, the Enterprise visits the matriarchal planet Angel I and gets a frosty reception from its female leaders. Riker especially seems out of place as Yar and Troi handle the diplomacy, but he finds a more personal way to gain their leader, Beata's, trust. Survivors are found, but they refuse to return. They have taken wives from among outcasts on the planet who don't like the status quo of dominant women and submissive men.
Back aboard the Enterprise, crises break out as a virus from a holodeck program ravages the ship and Starfleet wants a response to a reported Romulan incursion near the Neutral Zone. The renegades are discovered and sentenced to death along with their Federation mates as enemies of society.
