Description:

Stardate 44805.3: Lwaxana Troi is a guest on the Enterprise again. She meets the Kaelon scientist Dr. Timicin, who has developed a stellar ignition theory that may enable him to save his world's dying star. An experiment using accordingly modified Starfleet torpedoes on a similar star ends with a failure, however. Timicin tells Lwaxana that he won't complete his work, because it is time for his resolution, the ritual suicide of Kaelons at the age of sixty. When Picard refuses to intervene, Lwaxana persuades Timicin to stay alive, also to be able to save his planet. When Timicin asks for asylum, his people send warships to retrieve him. Eventually, his daughter convinces him to return and fulfill his duty. Surprisingly, Lwaxana beams down to join Timicin in his last moments.
