A scientist of Bre'el IV who works with the Enterprise by viewscreen as the planet's moon spirals out of its orbit and threatens to devastate his world.
Garin is a scientist of the planet Bre'el IV who appears in the third-season episode Deja Q, set in 2366. He is played by Richard Cansino.
The Bre'el moon has been knocked from its orbit and is falling towards the planet. Garin monitors its descent from the surface and reports to Picard on the worsening tides and the shrinking time left, while the Enterprise tries and fails to shift the moon with its tractor beam.
The crisis is complicated by the arrival of Q, stripped of his powers and deposited on the bridge as a mortal. Once Q regains his abilities he restores the moon to a stable orbit in an instant, and it is Garin who calls to thank a baffled Enterprise for its apparent success.
