Synopsis - After beaming on board Antedian delegates to take to a diplomatic conference on Pacifica, Deanna's mother, Lwaxana, comes on board to go to the same conference. While on board, she goes after Picard and others before getting engaged to Riker.

Manhunt brings back two main elements from TNG past: Lwaxan Troi, who previously appears season one's Haven, and Picard's Dixon Hill holodeck adventure, which was previously seen in season one's The Big Goodbye. On that note, in the Dixon Hill setting, we learn that Bartender Rex has been given a last name by the novels' author; and we also learn of the favourite drinks for both Dixon Hill and his secretary Madeline. We also learn about Betazoid physiology: during a Betazoid woman's midlife, called "The Phase", her sexdrive is quadroupled, or more, and she often goes in search of a new mate.
