Grebnedleg

Grebnedleg surfaces as a captured antagonist who later appears on the Enterprise viewscreen, visibly humbled following Commander Riker’s tactical and moral maneuvering. The character functions as a representative of the small hostile force that seized Geordi and attempted to threaten the Enterprise; Grebnedleg’s on‑screen demeanor shifts from aggressor to supplicant, underlining the episode’s moral that strength paired with discipline compels respect. His brief arc registers as the humanized endpoint of a failed boarding/raiding gambit and serves to reinforce Riker’s command authority and restraint.
