Star Trek: The Next Generation, Season 7, Episode 24 - "Preemptive Strike"

In the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode, "Preemptive
Strike," Ro Laren is back from Advanced Tactical Training, and
just in time. Starfleet wants her to go undercover and infiltrate
the Maquis. The Maquis have taken to attacking the Cardassians.
Yes, the same Cardassians that killed Ro’s father. Right in front
of her. And occupied her home world. And Starfleet wants her to
help them. It is a mission that will test her loyalty - to
Starfleet, to Captain Picard, and to her own past. What will she
do?
