With the Titan running out of power, Picard bonds with Jack, Shaw recalls Wolf 359, and the crew uses the nebula's energy to escape.
As the Titan's power runs down, Riker admits Picard was right, and Picard and Jack share stories on the holodeck. Shaw joins them and reveals that he survived the Battle of Wolf 359, where Picard, assimilated as Locutus, led the Borg against Starfleet.
Vadic, herself a Changeling, is ordered to catch the Titan at any cost. Picard, Riker, Beverly and Jack devise a plan to ride an energy pulse from the nebula, Seven kills the Changeling saboteur, and the Titan damages the Shrike as it escapes. Picard remembers that he met Jack once before and brushed him off. Jack is left hearing voices and seeing visions. Terry Matalas and Sean Tretta wrote the episode.
