Answer: Picard uses the transporter at an odd hour.

Upon confronting Picard Data says, "Rerouting the transport grid to avoid detection was wise, sir - however, the transporter is rarely used after 0200 hours." The crew makes it clear they are not about to let Picard do this all alone. Picard accepts their help, dividing them into two teams - one to take the Enterprise out of the Briar Patch and one to go to the planet's surface. Although Picard renounces his status as a Starfleet captain, it was impossible for him to send a message to Starfleet while still in the Briar Patch.

Answer: Jonathan Frakes

"Star Trek: Insurrection" is the ninth "Star Trek" movie and the second one with Jonathan Frakes as the director. Frakes also directed "Star Trek: First Contact". "First Contact" was the highly successful motion picture directorial debut for Frakes but "Insurrection" failed to capture the same level of success. Critics panned it as just an extended episode of the TV series. (Source: Rotten Tomatoes website) Prior to these movies, Frakes directed episodes of "The Next Generation (TNG)", "Deep Space Nine (DS9)", and "Voyager". Levar Burton has directed numerous episodes of "TNG", "DS9", "Voyager", and "Enterprise" but never a Star Trek motion picture. Patrick Stewart directed several episodes of "TNG" only. Brent Spiner has never directed any "Star Trek" vehicles.
