The ambitious leader of the Klingon Empire proclaims his goal of uniting all the great houses under one rule. Klingons can only unite for war, and this time humans have been declared as the enemy. Their traditional motto - "we come in peace" - is not appreciated by everyone, especially when it comes to a race whose purpose of life is war. Meanwhile, Starfleet officers spare no time or resources to help a small species from an outer planet that has run out of water. Why not travel halfway across the galaxy for a single shot from a phaser? Clearly, humans have plenty of money if they spend it on such significant missions.
