After a trade conference on the planet Betazed, the <I>U.S.S. Enterprise</I> sets off on a routine mission while Commander Riker and Counselor Troi stay behind to enjoy shore leave together. However, their peace is soon interrupted by the arrival of Troi's overbearing mother, Lwaxana, and two Ferengi delegates from the conference. After one of the Ferengi, Daimon Tog, reveals that Lwaxana once refused his amorous advances, he abducts both her and her daughter using a transporter beam; Riker attempts to stop them, but he too is caught in the beam and is taken aboard the Ferengi spaceship. In return for her daughter's return to Riker, Lwaxana agrees to discuss the use of her telepathic abilities in Tog's trade negotiations; meanwhile, Riker attempts to summon help, and manages to send a message to the <I>Enterprise</I> using transmission interference. The message is heard by Ensign Wesley Crusher, who curtails his departure to the Academy to take his Starfleet oral exams in order to decode the signal. But as the <I>Enterprise</I> heads off in pursuit, Lwaxana is subjected to agonising mind probes...
