In this episode, the Enterprise encounters a group of colonists who have constructed a genetically engineered society. Unfortunately, a large stellar mass is about to pass through that region of space and the gravitational forces would destroy the colony. The Enterprise must help the colony to find a way to destroy the mass without destroying the carefully controlled society that has been built. This episode is mosty a retread of "For the World is Hollow, and I've Touched the Sky" from the old series, complete with the isolated society, the Enterprise crewmember that falls in love with the local, and the major disaster that's about to destroy the colony unless the Enterprise can stop it.
