 Picard is visited by his archaeologist girlfriend, Vash. Then Q appears, claiming that he owes Picard a debt for helping him back into the Continuum. He decides to repay it by illustrating to Picard the pitfalls of getting involved with someone, by placing them all in a fantasy world where Picard is Robin Hood, Vash is Maid Marian, and Q is the Sheriff of Nottingham.
