Stardate 41255.6: While visiting the lush paradise world of the Edo civilization, Picard is faced with a temperamental being which is acting as a god to the Edo – which it claims are its “children” – and must tamper with paradise to rescue Wesley, who, after breaking a law the Away Team was not made aware of, is sentenced to be executed. If Picard breaks the prime directive to rescue Wesley, he may put the Enterprise at the mercy of the judgment of the Edo’s orbiting “god.”
