Captain Picard finds himself in the middle of a nasty trade dispute between neighboring planets Ornara and Brekka. His involuntary involvement in this squabble endangers his chances of purchasing a valuable drug called Felissium and completing a vital mission of mercy. Unfortunately, the two warring planets intend to use this precious drug as a means of wielding power over each other, and at least one of the planets isn't playing by the rules. Written by Robert Lewin, Richard Manning and Hans Beimler, "Symbiosis" first aired April 23, 1988.
