Season 1 Episode 22
Episode: "Symbiosis"
The Enterprise's mission to observe the flare activity of a star is interrupted by a distress call from a freighter in danger of destruction from a decaying orbit. Interference from the local star's radiation complicates the rescue operation resulting in the freighter's destruction however several of the passengers are at least rescued; them and their cargo. We learn that the cargo is in fact medicine, containing over 4-billion doses of a drug called felicium, manufactured by a race called the Brekkians. For generations a race on a neighbouring planet, the Ornarans have been struck down by a planet-wide plague. Having discovered long ago that felicium can address their symptoms, the Ornarans have maintained a long running trade agreement with the Brekkians for regular deliveries of the drug.
A memorable opinion offered by Tasha Yar who attempts to help Wesley Crusher understand how a person can fall in to the trap of drug addiction.
