Troi has a different outfit. It’s teal. Crusher has a seat on the bridge? Was that there before?

They check up on a colony, but everyone was killed except for two people

Troi senses that the people are different in some way. Thanks Troi

They go visit the couple

They’re just some old people

A big warship shows up, but it just runs away

Troi goes insane

Worf drinks tea

Picard wants to figure out what was different about these two that they were spared in the attack that killed everyone else. The guy says he didn’t resist, and that he won’t kill anyone ever

The warship comes back and it’s a lot more powerful. This time Enterprise runs away

They go back and talk to the old people again. They won’t go with them, and aren’t afraid of dying. Picard says he’s not leaving as long as they’re alive

The warship comes back a third time and this time they blow up the house and the two old people

A little bit later their house reappears and they both are back alive. Picard beams them up for answers. This guy is some kind of super old, super powerful being. His wife was killed in the attack, and he made a duplicate to live with. He’s been messing with Enterprise to get them to leave him alone

It turns out he was making Troi crazy because she would’ve figured him out. I think he’s giving her a lot of credit.

He says that he could’ve prevented the attack but he’s against killing. He wouldn’t kill anyone ever…well, except when he got really mad because his wife was murdered and then he killed 50 billion people, the entire race of the attackers

“We leave behind a being of extraordinary power… and conscience. I am not certain if he should be praised or condemned. Only that he should be left alone.”
ehh, he should be condemned. What on earth would he be praised for? Feeling guilty for committing genocide?
