Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:36,637 --> 00:00:40,348
Thank you for allowing me
to meditate with you.
2
00:00:41,642 --> 00:00:45,354
This is normally done
in private, counselor
3
00:00:45,437 --> 00:00:50,275
but it is an honor to teach Vulcan
techniques to one so willing.
4
00:00:52,232 --> 00:00:54,233
These sessions...
5
00:00:54,975 --> 00:00:59,069
They're the only times that Vulcans
pay attention to their emotions?
6
00:00:59,714 --> 00:01:02,534
We find it salutary to have
an interval during which
7
00:01:02,558 --> 00:01:06,471
we ask ourselves the
question no other Vulcan may...
8
00:01:09,206 --> 00:01:11,306
"How do you feel?"
9
00:01:17,296 --> 00:01:19,422
When this mission is over...
10
00:01:20,921 --> 00:01:23,423
I will miss these times with you.
11
00:01:27,168 --> 00:01:29,670
And I with you.
12
00:01:31,810 --> 00:01:34,831
Doctor, I believe you may benefit from
13
00:01:34,914 --> 00:01:37,936
further teaching with masters on Vulcan.
14
00:01:38,659 --> 00:01:40,619
Perhaps you could as well.
15
00:01:41,703 --> 00:01:44,830
There's a discipline called the
"Dalhutnar," isn't there?
16
00:01:45,267 --> 00:01:49,552
To help one accept the wisdom
of vestigial emotions.
17
00:01:49,733 --> 00:01:54,198
There is also the "Kolinahr":
the purging of all remaining emotions.
18
00:01:55,881 --> 00:02:00,760
There is no chance of me undertaking
the former, nor the latter.
19
00:02:03,170 --> 00:02:07,215
I am rarely disposed to discuss
matters of a private nature...
20
00:02:11,620 --> 00:02:15,707
but our relationship is... special.
21
00:02:18,708 --> 00:02:25,155
I have served aboard this starship for
sixteen years under two captains.
22
00:02:27,619 --> 00:02:30,788
I would not admit this in
front of Dr. McCoy...
23
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:36,331
but such a lengthy association with
24
00:02:36,413 --> 00:02:41,264
men and women from Earth
has taught me to value
25
00:02:41,348 --> 00:02:49,398
my maternal birthright in a way I never
could had I remained on Vulcan.
26
00:03:06,370 --> 00:03:09,342
[Kirk] Captain's log, stardate 6988.4.
27
00:03:10,014 --> 00:03:13,775
The Enterprise is scheduled
to return to Earth shortly.
28
00:03:14,401 --> 00:03:17,987
I always intended to bring
her back in one piece...
29
00:03:18,538 --> 00:03:20,948
but the triumph is bittersweet.
30
00:03:22,505 --> 00:03:26,799
The recent loss of our sister
ship still gnaws at me.
31
00:03:27,122 --> 00:03:31,549
Whatever it was that caused
the Hood's crew
32
00:03:31,550 --> 00:03:35,194
to lose life support, killing all 430
men and women aboard is-
33
00:03:35,219 --> 00:03:37,637
[intercom whistles]
34
00:03:41,341 --> 00:03:43,394
Kirk here.
35
00:03:43,395 --> 00:03:46,657
[Uhura] Priority incoming message
from the Chief of Starfleet Operations.
36
00:03:46,658 --> 00:03:48,760
I'll take it down here, lieutenant.
37
00:03:52,725 --> 00:03:53,803
Admiral Thesp.
38
00:03:53,886 --> 00:03:57,690
Captain... priority one. We're
diverting you to Aldebaran.
39
00:03:57,691 --> 00:04:03,455
Admiral, considering the ships
we've lost in that system recently
40
00:04:03,456 --> 00:04:05,817
do you think that's wise?
41
00:04:05,900 --> 00:04:08,158
Wise or not, it's necessary.
42
00:04:08,182 --> 00:04:10,908
The Yorktown and Republic
were severely damaged
43
00:04:10,932 --> 00:04:13,747
during their investigation
into the Hood's loss.
44
00:04:13,848 --> 00:04:19,914
And shortly afterwards, the Federation colony
on Aldebaran III went completely silent.
45
00:04:20,976 --> 00:04:24,758
How could an entire Federation
colony suddenly go silent?
46
00:04:27,039 --> 00:04:30,263
Starfleet has a top-secret
laboratory on that world.
47
00:04:30,346 --> 00:04:35,770
The supply vessel we sent to investigate-
USS Halifax - never returned.
48
00:04:36,192 --> 00:04:37,904
Before we lost contact,
49
00:04:37,928 --> 00:04:42,666
the Halifax reported significant anti-proton
residue on the planet's surface.
50
00:04:43,351 --> 00:04:45,912
I think you know what that means.
51
00:04:48,258 --> 00:04:49,717
Romulans.
52
00:05:00,416 --> 00:05:03,760
[Kirk] Space. The final frontier.
53
00:05:11,382 --> 00:05:14,718
These are the voyages of the
Starship Enterprise.
54
00:05:15,283 --> 00:05:17,024
Its continuing mission:
55
00:05:17,106 --> 00:05:20,107
to explore strange new worlds.
56
00:05:20,190 --> 00:05:23,694
To seek out new life and
new civilizations.
57
00:05:24,077 --> 00:05:27,961
To boldly go where no
man has gone before.
58
00:06:14,338 --> 00:06:18,241
Captain, readings indicate the
colony has been destroyed.
59
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:20,383
Romulan plasma weapon?
60
00:06:20,466 --> 00:06:25,151
Judging by the damage, it appears the central
reactor has suffered a containment failure.
61
00:06:25,152 --> 00:06:29,302
- That's unusual.
- It's impossible! I installed the safeguards myself 5 years ago.
62
00:06:29,718 --> 00:06:31,774
Perhaps some kind of sabotage.
63
00:06:31,775 --> 00:06:33,662
[Scott] At least the Pandora
Science Lab's intact.
64
00:06:33,663 --> 00:06:38,348
But it's underground - and it generates a particle
scattering field. I'll have to put ya down outside.
65
00:06:38,349 --> 00:06:41,786
- Just put us down in one piece, Scotty.
- Aye sir. - Energize.
66
00:07:17,186 --> 00:07:20,529
The disruption field is
obstructing my readings.
67
00:07:25,339 --> 00:07:30,302
I am detecting 2 life forms
large enough to be humanoid.
68
00:07:36,376 --> 00:07:39,813
I don't suppose they left a
key under a rock somewhere.
69
00:07:40,282 --> 00:07:44,727
I can attempt to access the lift using
standard Federation prefixes...
70
00:07:51,202 --> 00:07:53,103
Automated defenses!
71
00:08:13,598 --> 00:08:18,341
We must maintain the barrage!
The drone cannot fire through its own shields!
72
00:08:24,878 --> 00:08:30,258
Spock! Should the turret's anti-grav beam be
creating a gap on the bottom of its deflector screen?
73
00:08:30,832 --> 00:08:34,960
- Highly possible.
- Let's find out.
74
00:08:52,214 --> 00:08:53,548
Fascinating.
75
00:08:53,735 --> 00:08:55,835
[Lana] You're Vulcan.
76
00:08:57,980 --> 00:09:03,235
- You. You're Vulcan.
- Affirmative.
77
00:09:04,804 --> 00:09:08,225
When a simple "yes" would do.
Vulcan for sure.
78
00:09:08,226 --> 00:09:14,495
Forgive the attack. The drone's sensors
thought you were another Romulan invader.
79
00:09:14,496 --> 00:09:19,179
The bio-signs are almost identical.
You're in charge?
80
00:09:20,243 --> 00:09:23,246
Captain James T. Kirk.
Federation starship Enterprise.
81
00:09:24,128 --> 00:09:26,171
"T" for Tiberius.
82
00:09:36,866 --> 00:09:39,702
Who are you? What happened here?
83
00:09:41,410 --> 00:09:42,828
You don't know?
84
00:09:44,473 --> 00:09:49,352
It was your starship that first pierced the
barrier around our galaxy 5 years ago.
85
00:09:50,319 --> 00:09:57,145
An energy field that enhances humans with
high ESP quotients. "Uplifts" them.
86
00:09:58,227 --> 00:10:03,429
Since then, certain Starfleet
officials have been assembling us.
87
00:10:03,511 --> 00:10:07,683
Testing us. Experimenting. 25 in total.
88
00:10:08,245 --> 00:10:11,749
It appears you, too, have journeyed
through the barrier yourself.
89
00:10:12,630 --> 00:10:16,300
- A trial run.
- Trial for what?
90
00:10:17,276 --> 00:10:18,998
The ultimate last resort.
91
00:10:19,980 --> 00:10:22,482
Protection against invasion.
92
00:10:22,823 --> 00:10:26,725
In the event the Federation is
ever invaded by a superior force,
93
00:10:26,808 --> 00:10:29,106
we were to fly through
the galactic barrier.
94
00:10:29,189 --> 00:10:33,225
Granting you superior powers.
Effectively weaponizing you.
95
00:10:33,308 --> 00:10:36,678
The Federation isn't in the business
of weaponizing its citizens.
96
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:40,133
You should better familiarize
yourself with the Starfleet charter.
97
00:10:40,134 --> 00:10:42,511
Article 14, Section 31.
98
00:10:43,697 --> 00:10:49,141
Captain. Absolute power does
not corrupt absolutely.
99
00:10:50,063 --> 00:10:52,244
It corrupts selectively
100
00:10:52,566 --> 00:10:54,725
as you know from experience.
101
00:10:54,808 --> 00:11:01,554
Aboard your ship, one uplifted Esper became a megalomaniac.
.. while the other retained humanity.
102
00:11:03,801 --> 00:11:05,469
And which are you?
103
00:11:05,971 --> 00:11:09,033
I follow "Sas-tar-po-Harn."
104
00:11:09,116 --> 00:11:15,330
A human spiritual movement that follows the
pacifist teachings of Surak and T'Mord of Vulcan.
105
00:11:15,413 --> 00:11:20,897
- Psychologically unsuitable espers were excluded from this project.
- About my original question:
106
00:11:21,979 --> 00:11:23,919
What happened here?
107
00:11:26,784 --> 00:11:35,542
A cloaked vessel arrived. They overwhelmed the lab.
Destroyed the ship sent here to investigate.
108
00:11:36,450 --> 00:11:37,826
The Halifax.
109
00:11:39,634 --> 00:11:44,200
The Romulans vaporized our scientists
and kidnapped the espers.
110
00:11:44,941 --> 00:11:46,317
What about you?
111
00:11:47,804 --> 00:11:51,308
I used my powers to
suspend my life signs.
112
00:11:55,176 --> 00:11:56,719
I "played dead."
113
00:11:57,838 --> 00:12:00,320
What do Romulans want
with a bunch of espers?
114
00:12:00,403 --> 00:12:03,119
I believe I can surmise
the answer, lieutenant.
115
00:12:03,202 --> 00:12:08,967
Despite my advanced ESP rating, my experiences
with the barrier failed to uplift me.
116
00:12:09,129 --> 00:12:13,758
I suspect Vulcan physiology renders
us immune to the psionic effects.
117
00:12:14,115 --> 00:12:17,578
- And, if Vulcans cannot be uplifted...
- Then neither can Romulans.
118
00:12:19,341 --> 00:12:23,743
They want to use the kidnapped
espers to form an attack force.
119
00:12:23,826 --> 00:12:27,696
But not against us, captain.
Against the Romulan Praetor.
120
00:12:27,779 --> 00:12:30,524
They oppose his termination
of the Klingon alliance.
121
00:12:30,607 --> 00:12:34,235
Romulan politics don't concern me.
Getting my people back does.
122
00:12:35,074 --> 00:12:36,375
What's your name?
123
00:12:38,479 --> 00:12:39,529
Lana.
124
00:12:39,562 --> 00:12:41,625
You'll be safe with us, Lana.
125
00:12:41,645 --> 00:12:43,852
[Spock] Captain, a word?
126
00:12:47,976 --> 00:12:50,675
If you recall,
it was incredibly dangerous
127
00:12:50,699 --> 00:12:54,369
to have Mitchell aboard the Enterprise
after his powers had multiplied.
128
00:12:54,434 --> 00:12:58,112
If we leave Lana here, she will remain
as we intended him to be...
129
00:12:58,136 --> 00:13:00,320
Isolated, where she could do no harm.
130
00:13:00,402 --> 00:13:02,504
You heard her Spock. She's a pacifist.
131
00:13:02,587 --> 00:13:06,309
Besides, if we're going to pursue a
Romulan ship full of espers-
132
00:13:06,392 --> 00:13:10,363
espers that've been turned-
I want us to have one of our own.
133
00:13:12,138 --> 00:13:14,258
A most logical position.
134
00:13:14,341 --> 00:13:16,181
You sound surprised.
135
00:13:17,041 --> 00:13:20,225
Captain, there is the matter of
the other life form I detected.
136
00:13:20,308 --> 00:13:22,629
[Sentek] That would be me, commander!
137
00:13:24,407 --> 00:13:25,869
Drop your weapon!
138
00:13:25,952 --> 00:13:31,060
Do you feel confident that you can shoot me
before I kill your captain? Disarm now.
139
00:13:31,061 --> 00:13:34,189
Hold your position, lieutenant!
140
00:13:37,601 --> 00:13:40,395
Surrender is not the
Romulan way, captain.
141
00:13:40,806 --> 00:13:43,540
Fire now, and this
disruptor will detonate.
142
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:45,973
I have no quarrel with you.
143
00:13:46,072 --> 00:13:50,101
Save yourselves.
But the mutant stays with me.
144
00:13:50,183 --> 00:13:52,402
Given that particular model of firearm,
145
00:13:52,427 --> 00:13:56,432
I believe we have approximately 38 seconds
until a forced-chamber overload.
146
00:13:56,452 --> 00:13:58,775
We will not abandon a
Federation citizen!
147
00:13:58,795 --> 00:14:01,316
It seems you have little choice.
148
00:14:06,174 --> 00:14:08,946
[grunts, fighting]
149
00:14:24,738 --> 00:14:28,175
- Kirk to Enterprise!
- Captain, we cannot leave him here to die.
150
00:14:30,398 --> 00:14:33,126
Emergency! Five to beam out - now!
151
00:14:37,534 --> 00:14:39,320
[explosion]
152
00:14:49,986 --> 00:14:53,670
Sulu has detected the Romulan
kidnappers on long-range sensors.
153
00:14:53,753 --> 00:14:57,760
- We are on an intercept course.
- Excellent.
154
00:14:58,182 --> 00:15:00,436
Admiral, I won't lie.
155
00:15:00,460 --> 00:15:03,189
They have a head start. A good one.
156
00:15:03,913 --> 00:15:07,350
They'll cross into the Neutral
Zone before we can catch them.
157
00:15:07,820 --> 00:15:10,124
A week before my retirement.
158
00:15:12,199 --> 00:15:17,867
Captain, I'm ordering you to pursue
those "karskat" Romulans into the Zone
159
00:15:17,950 --> 00:15:26,740
all the way to the home worlds if you have to. Just
get the espers back - no matter what. Starfleet out.
160
00:15:40,715 --> 00:15:43,718
- Kirk to bridge.
- Spock here.
161
00:15:45,666 --> 00:15:50,452
Set a course for the Romulan Neutral Zone.
Maximum warp.
162
00:15:55,780 --> 00:15:56,830
Acknowledged.
163
00:15:56,863 --> 00:15:58,280
Mr. Spock?
164
00:15:59,187 --> 00:16:03,607
- You heard the order lieutenant.
- Yes, sir.
165
00:16:04,232 --> 00:16:09,200
Uhura, transmit this encrypted message
on the following subspace frequency.
166
00:16:09,201 --> 00:16:11,886
- Sir, that carrier wave is only used...
- Please proceed.
167
00:16:11,887 --> 00:16:14,488
Direct any response to my quarters.
168
00:16:28,469 --> 00:16:30,387
Four-oh. Perfect.
169
00:16:31,931 --> 00:16:36,727
I try to take the stairs instead of
levitating whenever I can. Keep in shape.
170
00:16:38,798 --> 00:16:42,092
- Captain!
- We're in hot pursuit. We'll get your friends back.
171
00:16:42,952 --> 00:16:44,120
Uh... the Romulan?
172
00:16:44,203 --> 00:16:49,959
He's in our brig. Lana, why was
he still there on Aldebaran III?
173
00:16:51,573 --> 00:16:56,577
I think he's a praetorian spy!
Must've infiltrated the dissidents.
174
00:16:57,243 --> 00:17:00,146
He fled to the hills after
they discovered him.
175
00:17:00,448 --> 00:17:05,555
We were the only people at the lab for
weeks. Our paths crossed frequently.
176
00:17:05,695 --> 00:17:07,156
Do you trust him?
177
00:17:07,239 --> 00:17:09,540
About as far as I can throw him.
178
00:17:09,623 --> 00:17:13,788
Which - in your case-
I'd wager is pretty far.
179
00:17:15,938 --> 00:17:19,464
Why didn't you use your
abilities to subdue him?
180
00:17:19,667 --> 00:17:26,924
He has tremendous innate powers. And as I
told you, captain... I am a strict pacifist.
181
00:17:27,590 --> 00:17:32,143
I do not utilize my abilities to harm
others unless they pose a direct threat.
182
00:17:32,226 --> 00:17:37,574
Bones. Speaking of "direct threats"...
we'll be engaging the Romulan ship soon.
183
00:17:37,896 --> 00:17:39,979
I hope I don't have to
call on you, but...
184
00:17:39,999 --> 00:17:42,661
If I had a credit for every
time you said that.
185
00:17:42,744 --> 00:17:47,670
I have the chem lab synthesizing hyronalin.
Best against radiation burns.
186
00:17:47,832 --> 00:17:49,932
[Sulu on comm] Bridge to captain.
187
00:17:52,056 --> 00:17:53,359
Kirk here. Go ahead, Sulu.
188
00:17:53,360 --> 00:17:56,085
[Sulu] The marauder's about to
cross into the Neutral Zone.
189
00:17:56,086 --> 00:17:58,790
Sound battle stations. I'm on my way.
190
00:18:07,365 --> 00:18:09,734
How long until the
Neutral Zone boundary?
191
00:18:10,277 --> 00:18:11,657
[Sulu] Ten seconds.
192
00:18:11,740 --> 00:18:16,036
- Lieutenant? - Our orders recorded and logged, sir.
- Five seconds.
193
00:18:16,468 --> 00:18:18,427
Stay sharp, everyone.
194
00:18:18,511 --> 00:18:22,876
[computer] Warning - treaty violation.
Warning - treaty violation.
195
00:18:22,959 --> 00:18:24,792
Mute that, Uhura.
196
00:18:25,042 --> 00:18:29,588
- On course for Romulan space.
- Keep an even hand on the tiller, Sulu.
197
00:18:34,295 --> 00:18:37,756
Out of the frying pan... into the fire.
198
00:18:46,837 --> 00:18:48,672
Scanning to one-half parsec.
199
00:18:49,722 --> 00:18:53,830
There's no sign of the marauder, captain.
She could be cloaked.
200
00:18:53,831 --> 00:18:57,732
- I've got something on motion sensors!
- Can we get a phaser lock?
201
00:18:57,733 --> 00:18:59,595
No sir - but he's out there.
202
00:18:59,615 --> 00:19:03,212
See if you can boost the directional beam.
We need surgical precision.
203
00:19:03,213 --> 00:19:05,861
Try to take out his engines without
endangering the habitat module.
204
00:19:05,862 --> 00:19:09,665
- Captain, a Romulan ship is decloaking off our port bow!
- Shields to maximum.
205
00:19:09,666 --> 00:19:13,629
T'liss-class imperial bird-of-prey.
I have wisual.
206
00:19:18,656 --> 00:19:19,734
The marauder?
207
00:19:19,818 --> 00:19:24,582
Negative. The vessel is registered
as the I.R.W. Hawk's Talon.
208
00:19:27,875 --> 00:19:29,917
Captain, we're being hailed.
209
00:19:47,227 --> 00:19:48,727
Commander.
210
00:19:49,469 --> 00:19:53,094
I received Mr. Spock's message
requesting a parley.
211
00:19:55,810 --> 00:19:57,564
Yet the fact remains...
212
00:19:57,589 --> 00:20:01,314
the Enterprise violated interstellar
law by entering Romulan space.
213
00:20:03,948 --> 00:20:09,056
Shall we call it "war" now, Captain Kirk?
Or wait for an official declaration?
214
00:20:15,426 --> 00:20:19,108
Contacting the Romulans, Spock?
That Romulan?
215
00:20:19,191 --> 00:20:22,992
On your own initiative? What were you
thinking? Why didn't you ask me?
216
00:20:23,075 --> 00:20:26,512
- You would not have agreed.
- Damn right I wouldn't have agreed!
217
00:20:27,689 --> 00:20:31,290
You're lucky I don't rip one of those
stripes right off your sleeve.
218
00:20:31,364 --> 00:20:35,016
Captain, I became aware of
reports that Charvanek was granted
219
00:20:35,041 --> 00:20:38,862
command of a new bird-of-prey
after she was repatriated.
220
00:20:38,930 --> 00:20:41,853
I am confident,
once I speak with her,
221
00:20:41,877 --> 00:20:46,013
that she will see the wisdom of assisting
us in pursuing the Romulan dissidents.
222
00:20:46,917 --> 00:20:51,129
- She and I have a rapport.
- A "rapport."
223
00:20:55,971 --> 00:20:57,304
Bring her aboard.
224
00:20:59,301 --> 00:21:00,601
Spock.
225
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:07,691
You have 30 minutes. I hope that's
enough time for your... rapport.
226
00:21:26,522 --> 00:21:30,484
- Welcome aboard the Enterprise... again.
- Captain.
227
00:21:30,968 --> 00:21:35,055
Mr. Dickerson, please conduct the
lieutenant to guest quarters.
228
00:21:35,153 --> 00:21:36,934
Aye, sir.
229
00:21:51,756 --> 00:21:54,071
"Jolan tru."
230
00:21:54,310 --> 00:21:58,615
And should I greet you as your
people would? "Live long and prosper"?
231
00:21:58,869 --> 00:22:00,747
You may greet me as you wish.
232
00:22:00,830 --> 00:22:03,915
Human lore would suggest I
offer "the other cheek."
233
00:22:04,717 --> 00:22:11,763
I confess... the humans did treat me well. Still,
I was surprised the exchange was arranged so quickly.
234
00:22:11,847 --> 00:22:17,851
Logic dictated that your return would entice your
Praetor to release the Tellarite merchants held on Remus.
235
00:22:17,935 --> 00:22:20,018
You mean the Tellarite spies.
236
00:22:20,379 --> 00:22:25,135
They would have sold the information
they acquired. My terminology is apt.
237
00:22:25,218 --> 00:22:28,721
Hmm... Now who is being clever, Spock?
238
00:22:29,751 --> 00:22:35,090
Your Praetor would seem quite loyal to you.
Is your loyalty to him as great?
239
00:22:36,923 --> 00:22:40,707
Commander, he needs your help.
240
00:22:41,330 --> 00:22:44,092
I need your help.
241
00:22:46,799 --> 00:22:53,468
Your father negotiated the arrangement that led to my return.
The House of Sarek has my gratitude.
242
00:22:56,002 --> 00:23:00,102
I will aid you... if I can.
243
00:23:03,170 --> 00:23:05,713
[Kirk] Commander, I
appreciate your assistance.
244
00:23:05,714 --> 00:23:07,733
[Romulan Commander] Spock
mentioned Romulan dissidents
245
00:23:07,734 --> 00:23:10,554
and kidnapped humans
with psionic abilities.
246
00:23:10,638 --> 00:23:13,768
Our intelligence sources know
nothing of these "marauders."
247
00:23:14,061 --> 00:23:18,167
In order to track them, I will need their
ships' configurations. Armaments.
248
00:23:18,186 --> 00:23:21,130
Then we are - to use an Earth
expression - "in luck."
249
00:23:21,150 --> 00:23:24,290
We apprehended a Romulan
commander on Aldebaran III
250
00:23:24,373 --> 00:23:28,857
an undercover member of the vessel's
crew still loyal to the Praetor.
251
00:23:38,135 --> 00:23:39,595
"Jolan tru."
252
00:23:40,801 --> 00:23:45,407
I have never seen this individual before!
He is certainly no Romulan commander.
253
00:23:45,490 --> 00:23:47,491
Are you sure?
254
00:23:53,580 --> 00:23:55,950
Transporter room, what
the hell's going on?!
255
00:23:56,601 --> 00:23:59,827
I beamed the prisoner out of the
brig- just as you ordered, sir.
256
00:23:59,828 --> 00:24:01,671
Dammit, chief! I gave no such order!
257
00:24:01,672 --> 00:24:07,736
Captain, I know my fleet as well as you
know yours. That man was an imposter!
258
00:24:07,820 --> 00:24:11,335
An imposter... who's now on the loose.
259
00:24:20,925 --> 00:24:27,673
Captain, I swear I received orders
to transport the prisoner. I just...
260
00:24:27,674 --> 00:24:29,177
I don't know where.
261
00:24:29,201 --> 00:24:32,444
Sir, the targeting scanner's
memory logs have been erased.
262
00:24:32,468 --> 00:24:34,758
But the imposter could
not have traveled far.
263
00:24:34,759 --> 00:24:38,305
Our shields have been at full power since
Commander Charvanek beamed aboard.
264
00:24:38,306 --> 00:24:40,576
Then he's still on the Enterprise.
265
00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:43,430
Dickerson, I need
security teams on all decks.
266
00:24:43,431 --> 00:24:45,929
[Scott on comm] Intruder alert! Main engineering!
267
00:24:45,930 --> 00:24:47,463
Looks like we found our man.
268
00:24:47,464 --> 00:24:49,579
[Scott on comm] Intruder alert! Main engineering!
269
00:24:49,580 --> 00:24:51,580
[man] Hey! You!
270
00:24:51,721 --> 00:24:53,721
[blows landing]
271
00:24:57,855 --> 00:25:02,526
Sir! The mains are going offline!
272
00:25:05,373 --> 00:25:08,023
Hold your fire! He's released
the electro-plasma!
273
00:25:08,895 --> 00:25:10,555
Hand-to-hand!
274
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,101
Gotcha, ya lovely.
275
00:25:37,474 --> 00:25:38,823
Clear!
276
00:26:01,388 --> 00:26:03,696
If the nerve pinch was as you described,
277
00:26:03,697 --> 00:26:06,298
Charvanek will be incapacitated
for at least 3 hours.
278
00:26:06,299 --> 00:26:08,752
We don't have that
kind of time, doctor.
279
00:26:08,753 --> 00:26:11,062
Her second-in-command wants
her returned immediately.
280
00:26:11,063 --> 00:26:14,233
They are better equipped
to treat her than we are.
281
00:26:15,328 --> 00:26:18,510
Burke, prepare the
commander for transport.
282
00:26:18,843 --> 00:26:20,429
What's his status?
283
00:26:20,513 --> 00:26:24,914
I'm keeping him under. Pulse
200, blood pressure 20/10.
284
00:26:24,997 --> 00:26:28,023
Romulan or Vulcan,
they read the same.
285
00:26:29,416 --> 00:26:30,466
Vulcan?
286
00:26:31,066 --> 00:26:32,901
The pressure hold he administered.
287
00:26:33,750 --> 00:26:35,630
Spock's "Vulcan death grip."
288
00:26:35,714 --> 00:26:39,801
[McCoy] Bingo. I've been
doing some digging.
289
00:26:40,503 --> 00:26:44,132
The Aldebaran colony's last
census listed one Vulcan.
290
00:26:44,163 --> 00:26:47,080
A male anthropologist
named Sentek.
291
00:26:47,776 --> 00:26:49,400
There's more, Jim.
292
00:26:49,424 --> 00:26:52,655
Federation records show that he's
married to our friend, Lana.
293
00:26:52,679 --> 00:26:55,338
And his ESP rating
is through the roof.
294
00:26:55,421 --> 00:26:59,710
He's got natural psionic abilities way
beyond normal - even for a Vulcan.
295
00:26:59,730 --> 00:27:03,715
If his powers are already so
strong, why go to an Esper lab?
296
00:27:04,039 --> 00:27:06,821
Maybe... to find a mate.
297
00:27:07,834 --> 00:27:11,269
A human Esper. One that could be
uplifted by the barrier...
298
00:27:11,302 --> 00:27:12,427
become his equal.
299
00:27:12,509 --> 00:27:15,949
And one who's already embraced
Vulcan philosophy.
300
00:27:16,032 --> 00:27:20,317
Wanna bet Lana's trip into the barrier
wasn't authorized by Starfleet?
301
00:27:27,529 --> 00:27:33,619
To see all the scientists killed... to
have everyone like you taken prisoner.
302
00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:37,222
It must have been very difficult.
303
00:27:39,938 --> 00:27:48,238
Colleagues, neighbors, friends...
Awful.
304
00:27:50,474 --> 00:27:53,618
It's important to allow
yourself time to grieve, Lana.
305
00:27:55,141 --> 00:27:58,044
I'd like to try and help if I can.
306
00:28:00,811 --> 00:28:05,934
That was a brilliant performance.
We know about you and Sentek.
307
00:28:07,907 --> 00:28:09,830
Why don't you try the truth this time?
308
00:28:09,914 --> 00:28:12,668
Captain, she's been through
a terrible ordeal.
309
00:28:12,692 --> 00:28:15,422
She scripted the ordeal, counselor!
310
00:28:15,584 --> 00:28:19,208
Didn't you, Lana?
You and your husband.
311
00:28:19,351 --> 00:28:23,055
He wasn't going to commit suicide
with that disruptor overload at all.
312
00:28:23,157 --> 00:28:28,196
He was trying to blow up the lab entrance so
we couldn't find out what really happened.
313
00:28:36,162 --> 00:28:39,965
Human evolution has stalled, captain.
314
00:28:40,847 --> 00:28:51,119
A typical man of 2270 - like you - is no different
physically from a Cro-Magnon of 100,000 years ago.
315
00:28:54,222 --> 00:28:58,851
But WE are.
We are superior.
316
00:29:01,110 --> 00:29:06,367
I thought you said absolute power
only corrupts selectively.
317
00:29:07,070 --> 00:29:12,032
And selection - whether natural or
artificial- is the engine of evolution.
318
00:29:13,961 --> 00:29:18,285
Your kind should embrace your fate.
319
00:29:19,491 --> 00:29:25,038
Instead, you try to control us.
Use us.
320
00:29:33,569 --> 00:29:34,986
Chief.
321
00:29:43,266 --> 00:29:48,649
Why do you suppose the Preservers
erected a barrier around our galaxy?
322
00:29:48,732 --> 00:29:52,057
Why? Hell, probably to contain us.
323
00:29:52,140 --> 00:29:55,142
To keep violence from
spilling into the universe.
324
00:29:56,186 --> 00:30:02,053
No. It was so that naturally superior
individuals could be uplifted
325
00:30:02,136 --> 00:30:05,418
once we had the technology
to venture into the stars.
326
00:30:05,501 --> 00:30:07,603
You don't know what gods think!
327
00:30:08,846 --> 00:30:11,750
Yes. I do.
328
00:30:32,118 --> 00:30:37,203
[Smith] Still no sign of the marauder.
He was there... and then he wasn't.
329
00:30:38,006 --> 00:30:39,340
Subcommander?
330
00:30:39,767 --> 00:30:42,052
Subspace scan completed.
331
00:30:42,077 --> 00:30:45,107
We find noevidence of a
cloaked vessel, Enterprise.
332
00:30:46,877 --> 00:30:48,836
The sensor logs you requested.
333
00:30:48,837 --> 00:30:51,865
Our trace of the Romulan
kidnappers disappeared
334
00:30:51,866 --> 00:30:55,010
after Sentek lost consciousness
and Lana was put in the brig.
335
00:30:55,011 --> 00:30:57,894
So that's why he tried to
disable the power grid...
336
00:30:57,895 --> 00:31:00,641
to prevent us from realizing
the ship was an illusion!
337
00:31:00,642 --> 00:31:02,783
[Tal] So it would seem.
338
00:31:07,491 --> 00:31:11,272
Mr. Palmer, run a level 3 diagnostic
on our long-range sensors.
339
00:31:11,273 --> 00:31:13,069
Let's see how badly
they've been compromised.
340
00:31:13,070 --> 00:31:14,358
Yes sir.
341
00:31:14,764 --> 00:31:19,381
Lt. Sulu... if there is no
"Romulan marauder..."
342
00:31:19,792 --> 00:31:23,471
the the Enterprise entered our
space without provocation.
343
00:31:23,554 --> 00:31:25,773
Starfleet is clearly the aggressor.
344
00:31:25,856 --> 00:31:28,983
Subcommander, that's for
diplomats to decide. For now...
345
00:31:29,066 --> 00:31:34,279
For now, you will stand down and
surrender to the Romulan Star Empire!
346
00:31:35,059 --> 00:31:39,165
Sir, the bird-of-prey is
charging its plasma weapon!
347
00:31:39,248 --> 00:31:42,453
Captain Kirk to the bridge.
348
00:31:42,536 --> 00:31:45,053
Go ahead, Tal. Open fire.
349
00:31:45,136 --> 00:31:50,040
And tell your Praetor why you destroyed a
Federation starship instead of capturing it.
350
00:31:50,123 --> 00:31:54,887
Your ship's mission is about to end.
It is scheduled to return to Earth
351
00:31:54,970 --> 00:32:00,136
and our sources inform us only 3 other
ships of its class remain in service.
352
00:32:00,579 --> 00:32:04,063
We have no interest in
obsolete technology.
353
00:32:05,387 --> 00:32:06,887
"Obsolete"?!
354
00:32:08,030 --> 00:32:13,778
A shame. Unlike you, lieutenant, your
Mr. Spock had an agreeable cunning.
355
00:32:14,402 --> 00:32:18,190
May his "katra" find its
way to "Vorta Vor."
356
00:32:21,223 --> 00:32:23,251
Evasive maneuvers! Brace for impact!
357
00:32:23,334 --> 00:32:27,366
Romulan weapon reaching full
charge in 3... 2... 1...
358
00:32:43,906 --> 00:32:48,090
- Why haven't you fired?!
- Subcommander, I have!
359
00:32:49,114 --> 00:32:50,574
Stand aside!
360
00:33:02,736 --> 00:33:06,573
Scans show their plasma torpedo
fully charged and operational.
361
00:33:06,843 --> 00:33:11,750
- Why didn't they fire?
- I'm betting they think they did.
362
00:33:12,212 --> 00:33:17,592
Subcommander! Power down
our weapons immediately!
363
00:33:17,871 --> 00:33:21,954
Sir. You have recovered
sufficiently to return to duty?
364
00:33:22,037 --> 00:33:26,260
The second time you've had to relinquish
command back to me, isn't it?
365
00:33:26,343 --> 00:33:28,428
Your glory is mine, commander.
366
00:33:28,767 --> 00:33:33,897
Tal, we will assist the Enterprise
in its mission. Is that understood?
367
00:33:33,898 --> 00:33:36,273
Commander, we have them!
Here in Romulan space!
368
00:33:36,274 --> 00:33:39,043
I have no intention of
permitting human espers
369
00:33:39,068 --> 00:33:42,490
nor Romulan dissidents
attack the Praetor. Or worse.
370
00:33:43,484 --> 00:33:46,285
I suspect there is a greater plan here.
371
00:33:46,309 --> 00:33:50,797
A plan that may jeopardize both the
Federation and our Star Empire.
372
00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:53,562
Your loyalty to the
Praetor is admirable.
373
00:33:53,645 --> 00:33:56,606
As, I assume, is yours.
374
00:33:57,773 --> 00:33:59,233
Absolutely, commander.
375
00:34:05,410 --> 00:34:06,585
What's our status?
376
00:34:06,586 --> 00:34:09,360
[Drake] Mr. Scott enhanced the force
field with the ship's shield grid.
377
00:34:09,361 --> 00:34:10,795
Nobody's gonna beam through that.
378
00:34:10,796 --> 00:34:12,548
Indeed. Rather ingenious.
379
00:34:12,572 --> 00:34:14,174
I'd expect nothing less.
380
00:34:16,623 --> 00:34:21,227
Sulu says you fooled Subcommander Tal
into thinking his weapons malfunctioned.
381
00:34:22,590 --> 00:34:24,328
No need to thank me, captain.
382
00:34:24,411 --> 00:34:29,797
Just like you fooled US into thinking
Romulans kidnapped the espers.
383
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:33,382
Your people stole the
Halifax, didn't they?
384
00:34:35,458 --> 00:34:38,468
You knew Starfleet would send
another ship to investigate.
385
00:34:38,904 --> 00:34:42,728
Sooner or later, we'd track them down.
So you and Sentek stayed behind-
386
00:34:42,811 --> 00:34:46,166
projected that illusion of a
marauding vessel...
387
00:34:46,190 --> 00:34:50,443
to buy your compatriots the time they
need to make it to the galactic barrier.
388
00:34:51,565 --> 00:34:55,361
Simple humans are so easy to deceive.
389
00:34:55,754 --> 00:35:00,840
They can be tricked into
doing almost anything.
390
00:35:06,842 --> 00:35:09,343
Like shutting down their
own life support.
391
00:35:13,406 --> 00:35:17,210
The Hood. My God... that's
what happened to the Hood!
392
00:35:17,294 --> 00:35:18,511
Why?
393
00:35:18,594 --> 00:35:20,176
Lana, why?
394
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:24,727
To see if we could.
395
00:35:27,677 --> 00:35:30,764
There's nothing you,
or anyone, can do now.
396
00:35:32,034 --> 00:35:35,193
My brethren will be
uplifted by the barrier.
397
00:35:36,450 --> 00:35:39,490
Even the great James T. Kirk
398
00:35:40,346 --> 00:35:43,317
will be brought to his knees.
399
00:35:53,350 --> 00:35:57,555
Captain's log, supplemental. What have I
done bringing an Esper mutant on board?
400
00:35:57,556 --> 00:36:00,581
I've been exhausted - but has
my judgment been compromised?
401
00:36:00,582 --> 00:36:03,319
Have I put my ship at unnecessary risk?
402
00:36:03,402 --> 00:36:06,479
In the hopes that my senior staff
can provide some insight,
403
00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:09,965
I've assembled those who were present
when we first crossed the barrier
404
00:36:09,966 --> 00:36:12,248
what seems like an eternity ago.
405
00:36:13,130 --> 00:36:17,384
[Spock] Ladies and gentlemen, I direct
your attention to stardate 1312.
406
00:36:17,616 --> 00:36:19,573
The so-called "galactic barrier."
407
00:36:19,597 --> 00:36:23,023
A field composed of negative
energy surrounding our galaxy.
408
00:36:23,043 --> 00:36:24,824
Effectively encasing it.
409
00:36:25,140 --> 00:36:28,304
Early in the Enterprise's
five-year mission,
410
00:36:28,329 --> 00:36:30,988
I ordered us across the barrier to
investigate
411
00:36:31,013 --> 00:36:35,441
the disappearance of an old Earth
vessel some 200 years earlier.
412
00:36:35,681 --> 00:36:37,683
I think we all remember what happened.
413
00:36:37,766 --> 00:36:40,669
Except for those of us
that weren't yet aboard.
414
00:36:40,954 --> 00:36:42,598
We've read the reports, captain.
415
00:36:42,639 --> 00:36:46,760
Two crewmembers with high ESP ratings
had their abilities altered.
416
00:36:46,862 --> 00:36:50,708
Correction. Their abilities boosted.
Exponentially.
417
00:36:52,411 --> 00:36:54,883
So, when the Halifax
reaches that barrier
418
00:36:54,907 --> 00:36:57,741
with all of those espers on board...
419
00:36:57,761 --> 00:37:01,126
Counselor, that is precisely
what we must prevent.
420
00:37:01,314 --> 00:37:06,219
It is logical that the espers will endeavor
to enter the galactic barrier here,
421
00:37:06,302 --> 00:37:08,638
at the point nearest
the Aldebaran system.
422
00:37:08,721 --> 00:37:12,328
The Halifax is a low-warp ship.
That journey would take weeks.
423
00:37:12,411 --> 00:37:16,916
But it's been weeks since they stole the
wessel. What if they already made it?
424
00:37:17,799 --> 00:37:23,388
Lt. Smith... As I recall, you were holding Commander
Mitchell's hand when the crossing occurred.
425
00:37:24,349 --> 00:37:26,431
Any insight you can provide?
426
00:37:26,557 --> 00:37:30,064
Anything unique you may have
experienced via physical contact?
427
00:37:33,762 --> 00:37:36,514
Nothing I didn't put in my report, sir.
428
00:37:36,605 --> 00:37:40,429
Mr. Spock, defeating one god was hard
enough. But a ship full of 'em...!
429
00:37:40,449 --> 00:37:43,112
They're not "gods," Scotty.
They're just humans.
430
00:37:43,853 --> 00:37:48,015
Even with all his power, Gary was
still susceptible to human frailty.
431
00:37:48,098 --> 00:37:50,859
Hell, he couldn't even
remember my middle name.
432
00:37:50,942 --> 00:37:55,383
Precisely. An uplifted esper's
strength weakens as it is expended.
433
00:37:55,466 --> 00:37:57,973
Then we must use
that to our advantage.
434
00:37:58,161 --> 00:38:00,891
Strike first...
before they grow stronger.
435
00:38:01,043 --> 00:38:03,412
We're not out to defeat them, commander.
436
00:38:04,426 --> 00:38:07,617
They're Federation citizens...
our brothers, sisters...
437
00:38:07,666 --> 00:38:09,636
even if they are misguided.
438
00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:14,205
Consider this a rescue mission.
439
00:38:14,206 --> 00:38:17,398
[Palmer on comm] Captain, transmission
from the USS Kongo.
440
00:38:17,399 --> 00:38:19,243
They've picked up
the Halifax's ion trail.
441
00:38:19,244 --> 00:38:23,347
Transfer it to this computer. And tell
Captain Azmi we'll be joining the chase.
442
00:38:23,716 --> 00:38:26,097
You heard her. Get to work.
443
00:38:32,226 --> 00:38:34,847
Sir, even at maximum sustainable speed,
444
00:38:34,871 --> 00:38:38,073
we can't catch the Halifax
before it enters the barrier.
445
00:38:38,093 --> 00:38:39,393
Commander.
446
00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:45,702
What are your ship's warp capabilities?
447
00:38:45,803 --> 00:38:51,042
Our birds-of-prey do not utilize
what you refer to as "warp power."
448
00:38:51,125 --> 00:38:53,930
We use other methods to
travel faster than light.
449
00:38:54,013 --> 00:38:56,634
Indeed. There is
speculation that Romulans
450
00:38:56,659 --> 00:39:00,941
employ confined quantum
singularities to bend space.
451
00:39:02,210 --> 00:39:03,835
I cannot confirm that.
452
00:39:04,436 --> 00:39:09,902
What if a traditional warp field and the fold
from an artificial singularity overlapped?
453
00:39:11,163 --> 00:39:15,134
A background in astro-sciences comes
in handy when you're a helm officer.
454
00:39:18,089 --> 00:39:23,136
- It may be possible.
- Sulu, you're a genius.
455
00:39:23,219 --> 00:39:24,777
Who am I to argue with you, sir.
456
00:39:24,861 --> 00:39:28,806
Work with Scotty and the Romulan
engineers to enhance our velocity.
457
00:39:30,114 --> 00:39:33,551
Let's see how fast we can
get our girl to go.
458
00:39:44,553 --> 00:39:46,893
Lower your deflectors, Enterprise.
459
00:39:46,976 --> 00:39:50,604
- Mr. Chekov? - Shields down.
- Tractor beam standing by.
460
00:39:51,422 --> 00:39:54,726
Activate tractors.
Extend superluminal fold.
461
00:40:04,435 --> 00:40:12,058
Scott to bridge! I've routed the primary
tractor beam through the shuttle bay.
462
00:40:12,059 --> 00:40:14,892
But captain... she's not designed to
take this sort a' strain for long!
463
00:40:14,893 --> 00:40:20,107
You always say that... and she always does.
Mr. Smith?
464
00:40:21,457 --> 00:40:22,517
Punch it.
465
00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:24,082
Yes sir!
466
00:40:35,163 --> 00:40:38,587
Six different systems red-lining!
467
00:40:38,588 --> 00:40:40,295
[Kirk on comm] Let them red-line!
468
00:40:40,356 --> 00:40:42,608
Aye. Me poor bairns.
469
00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:47,875
Well I'll be damned...
470
00:41:54,085 --> 00:41:56,828
Sir, galactic barrier dead ahead.
471
00:41:56,911 --> 00:41:59,893
Signal the Hawk's Talon.
Full stop.
472
00:42:20,803 --> 00:42:25,067
As before, sensors and deflectors
yield inexplicable readings.
473
00:42:25,150 --> 00:42:29,614
[over comm] Charvanek to Enterprise.
She's fiercely beautiful, isn't she?
474
00:42:29,635 --> 00:42:33,012
Indeed she is. And deadly
475
00:42:34,339 --> 00:42:39,343
- Sir, we're picking up a wessel at the barrier.
- Full mag.
476
00:42:46,151 --> 00:42:49,573
Identification confirmed: S.S. Halifax.
477
00:42:50,914 --> 00:42:52,755
Ship-to-ship.
478
00:42:53,907 --> 00:42:55,825
[Uhura] Hailing frequencies open.
479
00:42:57,184 --> 00:43:00,668
This is Captain James Kirk
of the Starship Enterprise.
480
00:43:02,233 --> 00:43:04,335
We are here to render aid.
481
00:43:05,077 --> 00:43:08,580
I understand that you have grievances,
and we offer our services
482
00:43:08,663 --> 00:43:10,866
as go-betweens with Starfleet Command.
483
00:43:11,748 --> 00:43:17,085
But it is crucial that you do not
enter the barrier. Please reply.
484
00:43:24,802 --> 00:43:29,068
- Uhura, anything?
- Just silence.
485
00:43:32,654 --> 00:43:34,755
There is no one aboard.
486
00:43:35,160 --> 00:43:40,414
Captain, we're detecting another ship nearby.
A starship!
487
00:43:52,265 --> 00:43:58,271
Scanning. It is the Kongo, sir. We
are receiving anomalous readings.
488
00:43:59,106 --> 00:44:00,326
Specify.
489
00:44:00,409 --> 00:44:04,417
It would appear there are only about
two-dozen life forms aboard.
490
00:44:06,342 --> 00:44:08,710
I've tied into the Kongo's
bridge, captain.
491
00:44:09,027 --> 00:44:10,630
Put it on screen.
492
00:44:39,393 --> 00:44:43,725
You're too late, captain.
Relinquish command
493
00:44:43,808 --> 00:44:47,520
or the Enterprise will suffer
the same fate as the Hood!
