Picard and Agnes learn from Agnes's connection to the Queen that the change to the time-line they must prevent, to avoid the dark future of the Confederation, will happen in three days' time on April 15, 2024. Picard asks Agnes Jurati to work on boosting the communications and the transporter capabilities of the ship. The Queen interacts with Jurati as soon as Picard has gone. She says that she finds Jurati smart, cunning and more cruel than she ever lets on. The Borg Queen knows that Jurati felt the assimilation. The power of the collective.
Picard transports to the location Agnes learned from the Queen. At the location, he finds the same bar where Guinan serves in the future. Picard finds a younger version of Guinan (Ito Aghayere) who does not know him and is planning to leave Earth after growing disillusioned with humanity. A few people have the resources to fix the problems, but they don't, as they fear having less. They have one tiny planet in the entire Galaxy, and the humans want to do is fight. Picard tells Guinan, who is still skeptical, that he has 3 days to stop something very critical from happening. Picard says only Guinan can help him repair the damage to the time-line. And if she doesn't, it is certain that Guinan will be impacted by it.
Seven and Raffi search for Rios and reach Teresa's clinic. A nurse at the clinic tells them that Rios is in custody of ICE (Immigrations & Customs Enforcement). Seven and Raffi check with LAPD, but they don't have Rios in their systems yet. Seven and Raffi break into a LAPD cop car and hack into their computer systems to find where Rios is being held. Rios is processed by ICE and sent to a sanctuary district on the U.S. border. Teresa is released as she is a US citizen. Seven and Raffi are able to track the bus that Rios is on with the help of Agnes. Agnes had boosted the communications power on the ship, and hence was able to connect with Raffi and Seven. With time running out, Seven and Raffi use the cop car to reach Rios who is an hour away, since the transporters are not working yet. Agnes also tricks the Queen into improving La Sirena's transporter systems. Agnes promises to talk to the Queen more, if she agrees to help her. The Queen agrees as she is disconnected from the hive and is lonely. Agnes transports Seven and Raffi to Rios's location. Then, Agnes limits the Queen's access again and leaves her alone.

Meanwhile, Q approaches a woman who is working on the planned Europa spaceflight mission. He is surprised to discover that he is unable to change her destiny.
