Well, we are descendants of the same two folks, so what are we if not inbreds?

There is a TNG episode to that effect. They are following some hints to some extrarodinary discovery, then notice that the Klingons and Romulans are doing the same, unsuccessfully trying to wipe out any evidence for anyone following them. So after some to and fro they all meet up on some planet with an extinct civilisation where they are greeted by a hologram of a bald -headed pseudo human telling them they are all related because this species laid the genetic groundwork on all their planets for intelligent life to evolve and since they are all brethren now could they please liv in peace blabla kumbaya!
highly unlikely they knew each other.
