Hviezdny dátum 41235.23: Picard potrebuje kúpiť súrne potrebnú vakcínu od Ligonians, hrdej, ale zastaranej kultúry. Na ligónskeho vodcu Lutana zapôsobí, že šéfom bezpečnosti lode je žena. Unesie Tashu ako súčasť prastarého rituálu, ktorý by od Picarda vyžadoval, aby požiadal o jej bezpečný návrat. Ale Lutan odmietne a vyhlási, že Yar sa má stať jeho „prvým“. Jeho súčasná prvá manželka Yareena namieta a vyzýva Tashu na rituálny boj na život a na smrť. Presne to bol Lutanov zámer, pretože tak by zdedil Yareenin majetok. Jeho plán zlyhá, keď Yareenu po jej smrti oživí doktor Crusher. Manželstvo sa skončilo, ale keďže je stále nažive, Lutan stráca nárok na jej majetok. Yareena je láskavá a prijíma Lutana ako svojho „druhého“, po bývalom Lutanovom podriadenom Hagonovi.

Stardate 41235.23: Picard needs to purchase an urgently needed vaccine from the Ligonians, a proud but antiquated culture. The Ligonian leader Lutan is impressed that the ship's chief of security is a woman. He kidnaps Tasha, as a part of an ancient ritual that would require Picard to ask for her safe return. But Lutan declines and declares that Yar is to become his "first one". His present first wife, Yareena, objects and challenges Tasha to a ritual combat to the death. That was exactly Lutan's intention, because that way he would inherit Yareena's property. His plan fails when Yareena, after her death, is revived by Dr. Crusher. The marriage is over, but since she is still alive Lutan loses his claim on her fortune. Yareena is gracious and accepts Lutan as her "second one", after Lutan's former subordinate Hagon.
