what you did to me. Until now.
You thought you could hide him
from me, but I found out about him.
Jason Vigo is as good as dead.
I'm going to kill your son, Picard.
Just like you killed mine.
Space, the final frontier.
These are the voyages
of the Starship Enterprise.
Its continuing mission,
to explore strange new worlds...
...to seek out new life
and new civilisations...
...to boldly go
where no one has gone before.
Mr Worf,
put a tractor beam on that probe.
Determine if it's safe
to beam it on board.
I want to know where it came from.
Mr Data, see if there is
a Jason Vigo in Federation records.
You might start with Miranda Vigo.
She was born on New Gaul
about 50 years ago.
Aye, sir.
Contact the Ferengi government,
find out all you can about Bok.
He was in a DaiMon's uniform.
If he's regained his rank,
I want to know why.
Come.
The Ferengi government is debating
the Rules of Acquisition.
It could be a while
before we hear from them.
Data found out that the woman you
mentioned has a son named Jason.
This is the most recent picture
we could find.
- How old is the boy now?
- 23.
He and his mother left Earth
12 years ago.
They settled on Camor V.
That's all we know.
The planet's records
are virtually non-existent.
Picard to bridge.
Set a course for the Camor system.
Warp five.
Aye, sir.
Will...
I do appreciate your not asking.
But I do think
that you have a right to know.
There is a possibility
that the boy is my son.
I was involved with his mother
for a short time about...
...24 years ago.
We met through a friend
when I was on shore leave on Earth.
It was all very romantic.
Very intense.
Probably because we both knew that
I would be leaving in two weeks.
And we kept in touch for a while,
but we never managed
to get together again.
She never told you she was pregnant?
No. So either Bok is wrong
and I'm not the father,
or Miranda decided
to raise the child alone.
Which, frankly, wouldn't surprise me.
She was very independent.
Very strong willed.
She'd have to be
to get by on Camor V.
But whether he's my son or not,
he is in danger.
Bok tried to kill me six years ago.
I don't doubt that he will try to
make good his threat against the boy.
Anything?
No Ferengi vessels
in range of our scanners.
Captain, I can find no information
on Jason Vigo's current whereabouts.
- What about his mother?
- No, sir.
Miranda was trained as a botanist.
She used to talk of running a farm.
- Concentrate on agricultural areas.
- That would narrow our search.
The only cultivated land
is on the southern continent.
Few people are engaged
in agricultural activities.
There cannot be many non-Camorites
among them. Scan for human life.
I'm detecting eight humans.
Three are female, but they
are too young to be Miranda Vigo.
What about males?
One is an infant, another is elderly,
two are middle-aged.
That's seven. You said eight.
I am having difficulty
getting a reading on the eighth.
The individual appears to be
two kilometres
beneath the planet's surface.
Male or female?
Male. Between 20 and 30 years old.
No sane person would go
that far underground alone.
Unless forced to.
Captain, I'm reading seismic
instability. He is in danger.
Relay his coordinates to the
transporter room. Beam him aboard.
Aye sir.
What the...?
This is a Federation ship.
That's right. I'm Capt Picard.
Jean-Luc Picard.
I realise I wasn't supposed to be
spelunking that cave,
but don't you have
better things to do?
We thought you were at risk.
Well, I wasn't. So maybe you
should just beam me back.
Are you Jason Vigo?
I know him.
Is he in trouble?
In a manner of speaking.
Someone has made a threat
against his life.
Jason.
I'm an old friend of your mother's
I'm here because you're in danger.
Why would anybody want to kill me?
The person who has made the threat
is under the impression that you...
...are my son.
Am I?
I don't know.
My mother never
