Future Plot ideas

1. Milk runs over a long stretch teach the crew about keeping busy. Perhaps a complicated load, or strain on ship life to analyze the mariners life and the differences from Starfleet. 2. Klingon subjugate world needs relief supplies, politics don't allow for the Federation to acknowledge them as slaves and can't really help. Our crew steps in. 3. The honey produced by the on board apiary has a unique property producing a mild giddiness. A science project for a young girl is the reason, she grows up and stays on board selling the honey as an exclusive product. 4. The Dominion retreated and left their subjects to fend for themselves, an irresistible call to profit prompts them to spend a year in the Gamma Quadrant and returns with a hold full of treasure. 5. Roland is discovered as a madmans toy, a cybernetic brain in a high tech body. He endeavors to become more biological and seeks help from the doctors. 6. A ship bullies Second Star forcing their way on board trying to find an item their friend Y'rrz took. This ship was in the same trove. The legend of Y'rrz begins. 7. Judah is going through a unique Human experience and losing grip on humanity. Akio upgrades the boys holo-matrix in certain areas to be able to fully actualize. It is Judahs first time as more than a ghost of a person in a paralyzed body. His nightmares and dreams are projected as well! 8. Second Star braves a quarantine and uses cunning to deliver supplies, is forced to flee under fire from (whoever is enforcing quarantine) 9. Fala has to collect on some debts, the original crew taker The Tiburon out for a spin (taking whoever wants to go as well) and the"Engineers" are used to recover her lost assets, as well as collect on past debts. Perhaps a twist that reveals Fala invested every penny her whole network could squeeze into the ship, and has deadly pressure to deliver results. 10. Orion pirates transfer hoards during accession events and marriage dowry payment. The Cardassians are desperate to enforce any kind of law they can and capture a hoard. This ship is set upon by everyone who knows what they carry. An orb of the prophets. 11. Starfleet activates the garrison on board and interrupts a delivery in progress for a conflict. A clash of wills forces the Tiburon to launch without Captain Beck as it is on loan as a rescue vehicle. The Engineers go out with Toriza and Kas. 12. Fala catches a communique about Bas Klayton, and confirms her psycho ex husband is in fact searching for her. Her inquiry into her intelligence networks reveal the extent of her abilities, but also tell them how connected he is. Bas has meanwhile settled into a role as a catch all science whiz for the ship, is finding happiness. 13. A secured run in unfriendly territory pans out an ambush from Chalnoth raiders acting as an escort. They are forced to run at impulse around moons and a gas giant to avoid weapons fire while they repair warp drive. Chalna cannot be trusted. 14. A Time capsule arrives from the future in a high tech flashy way. It is a message from his father in the 29th century, but 15 or so years too late, it should have arrived when he was a child. Quinton never knew why his father disappeared, it was assumed he bled out shot in the back somewhere. Quinton meets his half brother, finds out his dad moved to another time, but isnt given the whole story. The 29th century is whacky. 15. The Rangers are activated to cover a Federation embassy ordered to evacuate. Second Star is big enough locals don't bother, but the team on the ground sees real action covering civilians. Toriza is a warrior princess, the ship takes on passengers for a long cruise back. 16. Othor cannot focus, has his memories overflowing. He has a mental break, but Ina is able to understand one of the memories is her sweet Dure, and she helps him recall the story to soothe him. It is a sad story of Dure, sacrificing his life, his final moments. With the dream expressed, he resumes normal thinking, and Ina talks to Kas and Avor about their future. 17. Kas is a tentpole for the crew, ship, family, but has a pressure from everyone to go through pregnancy again, even though the last one was nearly fatal to her. A call from Dures parents saying there was a genetic cousin compatible for a new fourth pairing is appalling to her. Kas and her family go home. 18. Lui's family asks for a favor, they need to protect a Cardassian relief effort being preyed on by Bajoran outlaws. Starfleet outsources to local militia but there is a theory the outlaws are being fed weapons and funded. Local militia are killed, Starfleet takes no action, sending in investigators and diplomats. 19. Klingon cargo companies are renowned for their resilience. A contract has Second Star fulfilling three ships worth of cargo in a run, using a single bird of prey as an escort. It seems like a setup, but the Klingon loadmaster is a veteran who pulls out tricks, and inspires N'tach to be better. 20. Pick a random race of the week we never hear from again, reference Memory Alpha for events and make a relevant follow up. Establish quirks for return visits to be memorable. 21. Lui's family sends people during a time of great need, about forty people from their estate take up residence, and the tenor of things change on board. 22. Someone from Simon's Starfleet past needs his help with something off the books.
