Stardate 42686.4: Riker is reunited with his estranged father
When Riker is offered command of his own ship, the Enterprise heads for Starbase Montgomery to meet with the civilian strategist who will brief him on the assignment. That strategist turns out to be his father, Kyle, whom Riker hasn't seen in fifteen years. Time has not softened the first officer's hostility toward the older man, and he summarily rejects his father's efforts at reconciliation. As Dr. Pulaski — an old flame of Kyle's — and Troi ponder why Number One is so bitter, Wesley Crusher, La Forge, and Data try to diagnose the reason for Worf's increased tension.
When they discover that Worf is out of sorts because he missed a ritual marking the decade since his Age of Ascension, they surprise him by setting up a reenactment of the Klingon rite on the holodeck. As Troi and Pulaski compare notes on "their men," Riker's continued rebuffs lead Kyle to challenge his son to an anbo-jyitsu match — a martial art the younger man could never beat him at. The two finally resolve their feelings for each other, and Riker stuns the bridge crew by revealing his intention to decline the offered command post and remain aboard the Enterprise.
