That was a close call – you came in clutch here, Independent! Those Duras supporters are getting desperate, trying to provoke Starfleet into their Civil War.

If I may ask, Captain, how come you have assumed this position, and not the first officer?

With him and Professor Troi transferred to Deep Space Nine, I was the next in line. Does that answer your question?

I don’t have time to share recent history, Independent. If you want to learn more, attend Professor Troi’s Collective Psychology lectures at Tellar. I, however, must get back to work.

Commander, the ambient chroniton levels are spiking. Whatever has happened in this timeline, it has greatly affected both the Solar System and Earth. Pulling current data regarding the Enterprise.

It is still an active ship; however, rather than being assigned a research mission, it is now patrolling the Federation-Klingon border, protecting fringe systems from the wrath of the Klingon Civil War.

Look at this, Commander. A wedding announcement. Troi and Worf! This is an utter hodgepodge. Picard fell victim to the Borg, Data is but a smart nanny camera, and Troi is with this Klingon brute!

It’s all gone wrong without our Riker. No, no, we will fix this. What’s the Protocol saying? How can our dearest William be on the Pegasus-B and not the Enterprise-D?

–Locutus of Borg, as the Collective named him, was destroyed with the Cube. A sacrifice only possible due to Captain Picard carrying a neurolytic pathogen, and the Borg taking the bait.

Ah, Professor! Your lecture was very insightful, really. However, we were wondering if you know about William Riker’s role in the Battle of Sector 001? You know, an old flame of yours?

An old flame? You must be confusing me with someone else. I met Lieutenant Riker during a psychological assessment of the Pegasus-B crew just a few weeks ago; it's strictly business.

Engaging Protocol Origin… The source of the temporal flux lies in Sol, stardate 46235.7, and it revolves around the Enterprise-D timeline instability.
