A solid conclusion to the 2-parter, and a seamless transition into season 4. By today's standards it's missing all the huge action we would expect, but it manages to effectively present a gripping story. It wraps up a bit quickly and in a slightly lackluster manner, but the journey there is good.
For me, it's Riker that's the star here. Once he's promoted to captain, it suddenly becomes clear what a cushy position he's had as second in command, and what a massive responsibility being in charge really is. Picard's recovery seems a bit quick, so the next episode is quite important.
The Battle of Wolf 359 is unseen, but is going to become a major part of Star Trek lore.
