You could be charged with conspiracy,
358
00:17:14,843 --> 00:17:17,407

BATEL: The Federation's stance
on genetic engineering is clear.
429
00:20:58,153 --> 00:21:01,326
The practice is dangerous and illegal.
430
00:21:01,330 --> 00:21:03,024
The reasons for this are many,
431
00:21:03,028 --> 00:21:05,361
but the outcome
of the Eugenics Wars on Earth
432
00:21:05,366 --> 00:21:07,451
speaks for itself.
433
00:21:07,456 --> 00:21:09,549
Tens of millions dead.
434
00:21:11,110 --> 00:21:12,416
Pushed to its limits,
435
00:21:12,421 --> 00:21:16,124
genetic engineering
is nothing short of playing God.
436
00:21:16,128 --> 00:21:19,984
By interfering with DNA
and removing genetic outliers,
437
00:21:19,989 --> 00:21:23,558
we endanger the very essence
of natural evolution.
438
00:21:35,643 --> 00:21:36,927
NEERA: Captain Batel is right.
439
00:21:36,931 --> 00:21:38,842
Permanent genetic modification
440
00:21:38,846 --> 00:21:40,844
is illegal under Federation law.
441
00:21:40,848 --> 00:21:43,151
Slavery was once legal.
442
00:21:43,155 --> 00:21:45,849
Apartheid was legal.
443
00:21:45,853 --> 00:21:48,634
Discrimination against people
for how they worshipped,
444
00:21:48,638 --> 00:21:52,116
how they loved, their gender,
color of their skin...
445
00:21:52,518 --> 00:21:54,560
all legal at one time or another.
446
00:21:54,565 --> 00:21:57,642
A law does not make something just.
447
00:21:57,647 --> 00:22:01,430
I'm not saying the Federation
means to do harm.
448
00:22:01,434 --> 00:22:04,302
Their experience
with genetic modification...
449
00:22:04,306 --> 00:22:05,999
the Eugenics Wars...
450
00:22:06,003 --> 00:22:08,263
was horrific.
451
00:22:08,267 --> 00:22:12,543
The pain that Earth felt, unimaginable.
452
00:22:12,548 --> 00:22:15,530
The Federation built
a utopia in its wake,
453
00:22:15,535 --> 00:22:17,837
and in an effort to protect that utopia,
454
00:22:17,841 --> 00:22:20,710
they became blinded
by a centuries-old fear,
455
00:22:20,714 --> 00:22:23,843
so much so that they have,
perhaps unknowingly,
456
00:22:23,847 --> 00:22:26,324
become persecutors.

00:22:26,328 --> 00:22:28,892
My client is only here
because of who she is
458
00:22:28,896 --> 00:22:30,328
and because she felt she had
459
00:22:30,332 --> 00:22:32,330
no other choice than to hide that fact.
460
00:22:32,334 --> 00:22:34,158
Just like the millions before her
461
00:22:34,162 --> 00:22:36,017
who were forced to hide
how they worshipped,
462
00:22:36,022 --> 00:22:38,281
how they loved,
what they truly looked like,
463
00:22:38,286 --> 00:22:40,023
because it made others
464
00:22:40,028 --> 00:22:41,764
uncomfortable.
465
00:22:41,769 --> 00:22:44,159
Because it made others afraid.
466
00:22:44,164 --> 00:22:47,692
If a law is not just, then I ask
467
00:22:47,697 --> 00:22:51,175
how are we to trust those
who created that law
468
00:22:51,179 --> 00:22:53,225
to serve justice?
469
00:22:53,230 --> 00:22:56,882

Admiral Robert April to the stand.

00:22:56,887 --> 00:22:59,574

Yes.

00:23:02,674 --> 00:23:04,498
But before that,
you sponsored her application
474
00:23:04,503 --> 00:23:06,519
- to Starfleet Academy.
- I did.
475
00:23:06,524 --> 00:23:07,669
So would it be fair to say
476
00:23:07,674 --> 00:23:10,743
you have an investment in Una's career?
477
00:23:12,443 --> 00:23:14,089
It would.
478
00:23:14,094 --> 00:23:15,875
Admiral, I have to ask,
479
00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:18,887
at any point, did
Lieutenant Commander Chin-Riley
480
00:23:18,892 --> 00:23:21,291
disclose to you that
she was genetically modified?
481
00:23:21,296 --> 00:23:23,792
- No.
- If you had known she was genetically modified,
482
00:23:23,797 --> 00:23:26,611
would you have sponsored her application
to Starfleet Academy?
483
00:23:26,616 --> 00:23:29,212
Una is an extremely talented officer,
484
00:23:29,217 --> 00:23:32,077
and one of the most gifted
applicants I'd ever met.
485
00:23:32,082 --> 00:23:33,551
That is not the question, sir.
486
00:23:36,986 --> 00:23:39,483
If you had known Una Chin-Riley
was genetically modified,
487
00:23:39,488 --> 00:23:41,007
would you have sponsored her application
488
00:23:41,011 --> 00:23:42,922
to Starfleet Academy?
489
00:23:42,926 --> 00:23:44,702
You're under oath, sir.
490
00:23:46,756 --> 00:23:48,763
No, I would not.
491
00:23:52,632 --> 00:23:54,282
BATEL: Thank you, Admiral.
492
00:23:54,286 --> 00:23:58,491
It takes a big man
to admit his mistakes.
493
00:23:58,496 --> 00:24:00,394
I admire that, Admiral.
494
00:24:00,399 --> 00:24:03,529
Just for the record, could
you tell the court why
495
00:24:03,534 --> 00:24:06,032
you would not have sponsored
Commander Chin-Riley's
496
00:24:06,036 --> 00:24:08,209
Starfleet application, specifically?
497
00:24:08,213 --> 00:24:11,299
Starfleet Regulation 17, Article 12
498
00:24:11,303 --> 00:24:14,606
explicitly prohibits
genetically modified people,
499
00:24:14,610 --> 00:24:17,130
- such as Illyrians, from serving.

You are an honorable, decorated admiral.
501
00:24:20,964 --> 00:24:23,398
You wouldn't want to break protocol
502
00:24:23,402 --> 00:24:25,269
for any one individual applicant.
503
00:24:25,273 --> 00:24:28,316
- Let me stress this is not personal.
- Right.
504
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,005
It's the law.

00:24:31,535 --> 00:24:35,235

General Order One is?
507
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:37,038
Objection. Relevance?
508
00:24:37,043 --> 00:24:40,433
I'm curious myself.
Tread carefully, Counselor.
509
00:24:40,438 --> 00:24:42,851
I will, Your Honor. Admiral,
510
00:24:42,856 --> 00:24:45,333
what is General Order One?
511
00:24:45,337 --> 00:24:48,510
No starship may interfere
with the normal development of

00:24:48,514 --> 00:24:51,500
- any alien life or society.
- NEERA: Yes.
513
00:24:51,505 --> 00:24:53,111
A very important law.
514
00:24:53,116 --> 00:24:55,472
So much so that you now refer to it as
515
00:24:55,477 --> 00:24:56,996
the Prime Directive,
516
00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:59,321
- do you not?
- Yes, that is correct.
517
00:24:59,326 --> 00:25:02,131
NEERA: In 2246, while in command
of the Enterprise,
518
00:25:02,136 --> 00:25:05,166
you chose to warn the Perricans,
a pre-warp civilization,
519
00:25:05,171 --> 00:25:07,397
about a possibly apocalyptic
meteor shower
520
00:25:07,402 --> 00:25:08,865
about to hit their planet.
521
00:25:08,870 --> 00:25:12,097
Were you then following
General Order One?
522
00:25:12,102 --> 00:25:14,379
- That was different.
- 2248.
523
00:25:14,384 --> 00:25:17,614
You sent your science officer
to the industrial-age planet

525
00:25:19,806 --> 00:25:21,611
of an extinction-level drought
526
00:25:21,616 --> 00:25:23,718
by sharing Federation technology.
527
00:25:23,723 --> 00:25:26,870
- Were you in compliance then?
- BATEL: Objection. Relevance again.
528
00:25:26,875 --> 00:25:28,442
An entire planet would have died.
529
00:25:28,447 --> 00:25:31,498
And when you landed
on the hostile planet Man-us 2
530
00:25:31,503 --> 00:25:33,642
without your security officer,
531
00:25:33,646 --> 00:25:35,761
you chose to reveal your starship
532
00:25:35,766 --> 00:25:38,148
to the pre-warp civilization Ohawk.
533
00:25:38,153 --> 00:25:40,786
- Objection!
- Did you comply then, Admiral?
534
00:25:40,791 --> 00:25:42,426
JAVAS: Counselor, I will remind you
535
00:25:42,431 --> 00:25:44,347
the witness is not on trial here.
536
00:25:44,352 --> 00:25:47,656
Admiral, it would seem that
the rules of Starfleet
537
00:25:47,660 --> 00:25:50,850
only apply when a captain
deems that they do.
538
00:25:53,970 --> 00:25:55,968
Is there a question, Counselor?
539
00:25:55,972 --> 00:25:58,536
Yes.
540
00:25:58,540 --> 00:26:00,712
You have shown that you have been
541
00:26:00,716 --> 00:26:02,801
repeatedly willing to break
542
00:26:02,805 --> 00:26:05,169
the very first order of Starfleet
543
00:26:05,174 --> 00:26:07,327
and you are hailed as a hero.
544
00:26:07,332 --> 00:26:11,332
You can break the law
if you so choose. So, hiding
545
00:26:11,336 --> 00:26:13,595
behind order and protocol
to explain why you would
546
00:26:13,599 --> 00:26:15,745
not have admitted
Una Chin-Riley to Starfleet
547
00:26:15,750 --> 00:26:17,599
is a sanctimonious falsehood, is it not?
548
00:26:17,603 --> 00:26:20,166
- Objection!
- JAVAS: Counselor!
549
00:26:20,170 --> 00:26:22,913
You will cease this line
of questioning at once.
550
00:26:22,918 --> 00:26:26,084
My client did not ask
to be genetically modified.
551
00:26:26,089 --> 00:26:28,523
It is an Illyrian cultural practice
552
00:26:28,527 --> 00:26:30,729
done to children before
they are even born.
553
00:26:30,734 --> 00:26:32,036
It is done for survival,
554
00:26:32,041 --> 00:26:34,169
and yet she has been arrested
555
00:26:34,174 --> 00:26:36,042
because of a violation of a law.
556
00:26:36,047 --> 00:26:39,315
But the admiral has just shown
us that Starfleet regulations
557
00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:41,927
are flimsy and subjective at best.
558
00:26:41,931 --> 00:26:45,583
Starfleet captains make
judgement calls every day.
559
00:26:45,587 --> 00:26:47,391
Calls that save lives.
560
00:26:47,396 --> 00:26:49,394
Una Chin-Riley's services to Starfleet
561
00:26:49,399 --> 00:26:50,806
have been commendable, yes.
562
00:26:50,810 --> 00:26:53,542
But the law that she broke
is there to save lives
563
00:26:53,547 --> 00:26:55,145
and prevent genocide.
564
00:26:55,150 --> 00:26:57,551
So, if you ask me, Counselor,
565
00:26:57,556 --> 00:26:59,467
if I would have denied
Commander Chin-Riley's
566
00:26:59,471 --> 00:27:01,369
access to Starfleet Academy had I known
567
00:27:01,374 --> 00:27:02,904
she was genetically modified,
568
00:27:02,909 --> 00:27:05,655
my answer is still yes, I would have.
569
00:27:08,197 --> 00:27:10,477
So you admit that the reason
for your decision
570
00:27:10,482 --> 00:27:12,878
is not law, but fear
and racial prejudice.
571
00:27:12,883 --> 00:27:15,873
- BATEL: Objection!
- Sustained. - Counselor Ketoul,
572
00:27:15,878 --> 00:27:18,422
this is a court martial
for Una Chin-Riley,
573
00:27:18,427 --> 00:27:19,902
not Admiral April.
574
00:27:19,907 --> 00:27:21,971
That you are unable
to defend your client
575
00:27:21,976 --> 00:27:23,950
does not permit you
to attack the Federation
576
00:27:23,955 --> 00:27:26,188
or our officers.
577
00:27:26,193 --> 00:27:29,061
All of the admiral's testimony
will be stricken
578
00:27:29,065 --> 00:27:30,593
from the court record.
579
00:27:33,722 --> 00:27:36,068
Did Una's lawyer just
try and indict Admiral April?
580
00:27:36,072 --> 00:27:37,248
It would appear so.
581
00:27:37,253 --> 00:27:38,672
I guess that's one strategy.
582
00:27:38,677 --> 00:27:41,117
That didn't exactly
make April look good.
583
00:27:41,121 --> 00:27:43,737
But how does any of this help Una?
584
00:27:45,647 --> 00:27:47,645
Oh, boy.
585
00:27:47,649 --> 00:27:50,026
So, the lawyer was your idea.
586
00:27:50,031 --> 00:27:51,337
She was.
587
00:27:52,745 --> 00:27:54,564
She's one of the best
civil rights litigators
588
00:27:54,569 --> 00:27:57,006
in the galaxy, and Una's friend.
589
00:27:59,256 --> 00:28:00,863
You know, I think highly of Una.
590
00:28:00,868 --> 00:28:04,563
Promoted her faster than
any other officer on my ship.

Yeah, I know.
594
00:28:12,021 --> 00:28:14,150
It's a shame the rest
of the court didn't get a chance
595
00:28:14,154 --> 00:28:15,695

Most Illyrians don't

Has it occurred to you that
your case might bring us

This isn't about defending me.

Chief medical officer
of the USS Enterprise.

00:30:07,365 --> 00:30:10,377
I graduated top of my class
and have been promoted
636

each year during my tenure in Starfleet.
637
00:30:12,315 --> 00:30:13,809
You were also in consideration

- Yes.

- So you've saved lives?
- Yes.

00:30:18,224 --> 00:30:20,928
When did you first meet Una Chin-Riley?

On my first day as an ensign
on the Enterprise.
642
00:30:24,023 --> 00:30:25,977
She was part of the rescue mission
643
00:30:25,981 --> 00:30:29,072

from a Gorn breeding planet.
644
00:30:29,077 --> 00:30:30,918

- Do you have any relation to Khan Noonien Singh?
- Yes.

Did you ever suspect Una
to be an Illyrian?

No, I did not.
648
00:30:43,133 --> 00:30:45,436
Did you ever get the sense
that Commander Chin-Riley
649
00:30:45,441 --> 00:30:47,653
was hiding something?
650
00:30:48,656 --> 00:30:50,353
Never.
651
00:30:54,314 --> 00:30:57,269
Just that she was discreet
and empathetic
652
00:30:57,273 --> 00:31:00,708
and handled personal
matters with great care.
653
00:31:00,712 --> 00:31:04,917
Yes, I did get the sense
that she was hiding something.

NEERA: What was she hiding?

00:31:11,723 --> 00:31:15,301
An affinity for Gilbert
and Sullivan musicals.
656
00:31:19,845 --> 00:31:23,073
After the defendant rescued you,
did you remain close?
657
00:31:24,505 --> 00:31:26,808
I had no family left.

She sponsored my application
to Starfleet.

would it follow that the
only logical course of action

is for her to be punished accordingly?
670
00:31:59,746 --> 00:32:02,901
Perhaps. Although
I think it is illogical
671
00:32:02,906 --> 00:32:04,356
for Starfleet to punish itself.
672
00:32:04,361 --> 00:32:06,145
I'm afraid I don't understand.

707

It can't be because
Una was genetically augmented.

Una was my friend. She lied to me.
712
00:33:51,230 --> 00:33:53,362
It's not that simple, is it?
713
00:33:54,262 --> 00:33:56,447
- No.
- Could it be
714
00:33:56,452 --> 00:34:00,017
that you carry
your family's augmentations,
715
00:34:00,021 --> 00:34:02,933
and you believe that because of them
716
00:34:02,937 --> 00:34:04,770
you may become dangerous?
717
00:34:06,462 --> 00:34:08,121
Yes, I do.
718
00:34:11,424 --> 00:34:14,209
There is nothing wrong
with you, Lieutenant.
719
00:34:15,998 --> 00:34:18,780
No hidden monster inside.
720
00:34:18,785 --> 00:34:20,429
- You don't know that.
- But I do.
721
00:34:20,433 --> 00:34:21,826
It's how they make us feel.
722
00:34:23,044 --> 00:34:25,086
They look down at us for so long that
723
00:34:25,090 --> 00:34:27,135
we begin to look down at ourselves.
724
00:34:28,876 --> 00:34:30,395
Genetics is not destiny,
725
00:34:30,399 --> 00:34:33,355
despite what you may have been taught.
726
00:34:33,359 --> 00:34:36,227
The fear you have of yourself,
it's not your own.
727
00:34:36,231 --> 00:34:38,273
It was drilled into you.
728
00:34:38,277 --> 00:34:41,276
You're not born a monster.
729
00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:44,148
You were just born with
a capacity for actions,
730
00:34:44,152 --> 00:34:46,672
good or ill.
731
00:34:46,676 --> 00:34:48,461
Just like the rest of us.
732
00:34:50,985 --> 00:34:53,118
In any case...
733
00:34:54,162 --> 00:34:57,018
... it takes six months at a minimum
734
00:34:57,023 --> 00:34:58,554
after a request
735
00:34:58,558 --> 00:35:01,035
from a boatload of admirals
736
00:35:01,039 --> 00:35:03,602
to subpoena a personal log.
737
00:35:03,606 --> 00:35:06,257
They haven't had nearly that long.
738
00:35:06,261 --> 00:35:08,172
I guarantee, you are not the person
739
00:35:08,176 --> 00:35:10,918
who leaked Una's true identity
to Starfleet.
740
00:35:17,577 --> 00:35:20,141
But if it wasn't my log
that caused this, then
741
00:35:20,145 --> 00:35:22,273
who turned in Una?
742
00:35:22,277 --> 00:35:24,667
You're head of security here.
743
00:35:24,671 --> 00:35:27,004
Una speaks highly of you,
744
00:35:27,009 --> 00:35:30,139
which is not something
she does of many people.
745
00:35:30,144 --> 00:35:32,620
Who do you think did it?
746
00:35:32,625 --> 00:35:35,019
I-I d... I don't know.
747
00:35:36,944 --> 00:35:39,421
Someone who could gain
from exposing the truth.
748
00:35:39,425 --> 00:35:41,514
My thoughts exactly.
749
00:35:43,168 --> 00:35:46,423
Thank you. You've been very helpful.
750
00:35:48,290 --> 00:35:50,898
Why do I feel like I've just
been hit by a shuttle?
751
00:35:50,903 --> 00:35:52,992
I'll take that as a compliment.
752
00:36:03,087 --> 00:36:04,706
I would like to call the defendant
753
00:36:04,711 --> 00:36:06,931
Una Chin-Riley to the stand.
754
00:36:15,019 --> 00:36:17,091
How long have you been in Starfleet?
755
00:36:17,096 --> 00:36:18,720
Twenty-five years.
756
00:36:18,725 --> 00:36:22,638
Would you call this career
your life's goal?
757
00:36:22,642 --> 00:36:24,166
It's all I've ever wanted.
758
00:36:24,171 --> 00:36:27,947
You knew you were Illyrian,
thus genetically modified.
759
00:36:27,952 --> 00:36:29,906
Didn't you think you might find yourself
760
00:36:29,910 --> 00:36:31,995
in this position one day?
761
00:36:31,999 --> 00:36:33,845
I had been warned, yes.
762
00:36:33,850 --> 00:36:35,504
So why join Starfleet?
763
00:36:37,674 --> 00:36:40,761
Ad astra per aspera.
764
00:36:40,766 --> 00:36:42,593
Could you translate for the court?
765
00:36:45,665 --> 00:36:49,012
"To the stars through hardship".
766
00:36:49,016 --> 00:36:52,363
It was the Starfleet motto
before the Federation.
767
00:36:52,367 --> 00:36:54,649
I learned it studying history in school.
768
00:36:54,654 --> 00:36:57,423
Why were you drawn to that motto?
769
00:36:57,428 --> 00:37:00,370
I knew it meant we must endure hardship
770
00:37:00,375 --> 00:37:02,025
to get to the stars.
771
00:37:02,029 --> 00:37:04,027
But I like to think that it also means
772
00:37:04,031 --> 00:37:06,160
that the stars could deliver us
773
00:37:06,164 --> 00:37:08,497
from anything. That
774
00:37:08,502 --> 00:37:11,686
in the mystery an vastness of space,
775
00:37:11,691 --> 00:37:14,640
we might not just satisfy our curiosity,
776
00:37:14,645 --> 00:37:16,908
our need for exploration,
777
00:37:16,913 --> 00:37:21,118
but that in it,
we might each also find...
778
00:37:21,123 --> 00:37:23,212
salvation.
779
00:37:24,443 --> 00:37:26,501
Why would you need salvation?
780
00:37:28,060 --> 00:37:30,149
Was your childhood difficult?
781
00:37:31,541 --> 00:37:34,255
Objection. The defendant's
childhood isn't relevant here.
782
00:37:34,260 --> 00:37:36,972
NEERA: I'm simply establishing context.
783
00:37:36,977 --> 00:37:40,237
If Una Chin-Riley is to be tried
for being an Illyrian,
784
00:37:40,241 --> 00:37:44,154
then the court must understand
what it means to be an Illyrian.
785
00:37:44,158 --> 00:37:46,939
We'll allow it to continue, Counselor.
786
00:37:46,943 --> 00:37:48,289
NEERA: Thank you.
787
00:37:48,293 --> 00:37:50,421
You grew up in a Federation colony
788
00:37:50,425 --> 00:37:52,815
in the Vaultera Nebula, correct?
789
00:37:52,819 --> 00:37:55,339
Yes. We were given
provisional membership
790
00:37:55,343 --> 00:37:57,681
in the Federation
the year before I was born.
791
00:37:57,686 --> 00:38:00,430
On the condition that
all genetic modification
792
00:38:00,435 --> 00:38:02,433
was to cease. Is that correct?
793
00:38:02,437 --> 00:38:05,458
- Yes.
- But that didn't happen, did it?
794
00:38:07,834 --> 00:38:10,485
It did for some.
795
00:38:10,489 --> 00:38:13,879
But for other families, like mine,
796
00:38:13,883 --> 00:38:16,882
it was our tradition.
797
00:38:16,886 --> 00:38:18,928
Our heritage.
798
00:38:18,932 --> 00:38:21,670
What was life like for your family
799
00:38:21,674 --> 00:38:23,715
under the Federation?
800
00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:25,748
♪ ♪
801
00:38:25,753 --> 00:38:27,936
UNA: We no longer discussed our customs.
802
00:38:27,941 --> 00:38:31,114
We performed our rituals only in secret.
803
00:38:31,118 --> 00:38:34,428
Those who could hid their modifications.
804
00:38:34,433 --> 00:38:37,119
When new children were born, parents
805
00:38:37,124 --> 00:38:39,822
sought out friendly doctors
to deliver them.
806
00:38:41,333 --> 00:38:43,026
We knew if we were ever found to be
807
00:38:43,031 --> 00:38:45,475
genetically augmented
we would be arrested.
808
00:38:45,480 --> 00:38:48,218
Did that ever happen to anyone you knew?
809
00:38:48,222 --> 00:38:50,960
A boy I went to school with.
810
00:38:50,964 --> 00:38:52,831
Ivan Ketoul.
811
00:38:52,835 --> 00:38:55,356
He was my best friend's cousin.
812
00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:57,401
What happened to him?
813
00:38:57,405 --> 00:38:59,922
UNA: Some of us have immune
systems that can glow.
814
00:38:59,927 --> 00:39:04,432
Someone must have seen him.
He came home one day
815
00:39:04,437 --> 00:39:06,807
to find the word
"augment" on their door.
816
00:39:06,812 --> 00:39:09,151
We had just learned
about augments in school.
817
00:39:09,156 --> 00:39:12,116
Opinions on them were clear.
818
00:39:13,474 --> 00:39:15,346
Someone must have found out.
819
00:39:16,250 --> 00:39:18,074
Maybe it was just a prank.
820
00:39:18,078 --> 00:39:20,076
Did anyone defend him,
821
00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:21,329
his family?
822
00:39:22,130 --> 00:39:24,253
Some.
823
00:39:24,258 --> 00:39:26,130
But there weren't enough voices.
824
00:39:27,870 --> 00:39:30,521
Ivan and his parents
were arrested in their home.
825
00:39:30,525 --> 00:39:32,136
He was ten years old.
826
00:39:35,051 --> 00:39:37,137
How did this affect your community?
827
00:39:37,141 --> 00:39:39,626
Some families moved to other planets
828
00:39:39,631 --> 00:39:41,129
that weren't Federation.
829
00:39:41,134 --> 00:39:43,446
And those of us who stayed,
830
00:39:43,451 --> 00:39:46,037
we were persecuted.
831
00:39:48,039 --> 00:39:50,258
Circumstances became extreme.
832
00:39:52,260 --> 00:39:55,123
The anti-augmentation laws
seemed to give people
833
00:39:55,128 --> 00:39:57,823
freedom to act on their worst impulses.
834
00:39:59,859 --> 00:40:01,604
First were the insults.
835
00:40:02,704 --> 00:40:03,859
"Augment".
836
00:40:03,864 --> 00:40:05,991
"Moddie".
837
00:40:05,995 --> 00:40:07,993
"Freak".
838
00:40:07,997 --> 00:40:10,213
There were stores
that wouldn't serve you
839
00:40:10,217 --> 00:40:12,001
if they'd heard you'd been modified.
840
00:40:14,294 --> 00:40:15,913
Even the rumors could be dangerous.
841
00:40:15,918 --> 00:40:19,004
I remember when the attacks began.
842
00:40:19,008 --> 00:40:21,072
We feared for our lives.
843
00:40:22,694 --> 00:40:24,226
Go on.
844
00:40:24,231 --> 00:40:26,320
There was a fight at school one day.
845
00:40:27,843 --> 00:40:30,498
One boy accused another boy
of being an Illyrian.
846
00:40:32,108 --> 00:40:33,541
I tried to stop it.
847
00:40:33,545 --> 00:40:35,717
My leg got broken.
848
00:40:35,721 --> 00:40:37,766
It was such a simple fix.
849
00:40:39,028 --> 00:40:41,074
So easy to treat with modern medicine.
850
00:40:42,048 --> 00:40:44,290
But my parents wouldn't
take me to a hospital.
851
00:40:44,295 --> 00:40:46,684
They were afraid.
852
00:40:46,688 --> 00:40:50,349
Despite my modifications,
my leg became infected.
853
00:40:52,102 --> 00:40:53,908
If we hadn't found and Illyrian doctor
854
00:40:53,913 --> 00:40:55,832
willing to see me
in the middle of the night,
855
00:40:55,837 --> 00:40:57,304
I would have died.
856
00:41:02,839 --> 00:41:05,518
I'm so sorry.
857
00:41:05,523 --> 00:41:08,130
Was this normal for
858
00:41:08,135 --> 00:41:11,382
such a common thing
to become life-threatening?
859
00:41:11,387 --> 00:41:13,385
It was for kids like me, yes.
860
00:41:13,390 --> 00:41:15,867
Civil unrest became so great
861
00:41:15,872 --> 00:41:19,306
the local government decided
to divide us into two cities:
862
00:41:19,311 --> 00:41:21,392
Illyrian and non-Illyrian.
863
00:41:23,029 --> 00:41:24,422
Thank you.
864
00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:29,040
My family, we went
to the non-Illyrian city.
865
00:41:31,055 --> 00:41:33,057
You see, some of us could pass.
866
00:41:35,350 --> 00:41:37,305
We could blend in,
867
00:41:37,310 --> 00:41:38,838
so we did.
868
00:41:40,281 --> 00:41:43,893
We left everyone else behind.
Our families.
869
00:41:45,852 --> 00:41:47,893
Our friends.
870
00:41:47,897 --> 00:41:49,986
We left them all.
871
00:41:50,987 --> 00:41:52,989
I regret it to this day.
872
00:41:54,687 --> 00:41:56,645
I'm so sorry.
873
00:41:57,646 --> 00:41:58,904
And yet,
874
00:41:58,908 --> 00:42:02,212
after all of this strife,
875
00:42:02,216 --> 00:42:05,085
you still wanted
to be a Starfleet officer.
876
00:42:05,089 --> 00:42:07,130
Yes.
877
00:42:07,134 --> 00:42:09,528
One last question, Commander.
878
00:42:11,269 --> 00:42:14,098
How did Starfleet find out
that you were Illyrian?
879
00:42:15,142 --> 00:42:18,208
You managed to keep your status
a secret for so many years,
880
00:42:18,213 --> 00:42:20,124
it's surprising they found out now.
881
00:42:20,129 --> 00:42:23,407
- I don't...
- Who turned you in to Starfleet?
882
00:42:23,411 --> 00:42:25,148
I remind you, you are under oath.
883
00:42:25,152 --> 00:42:27,716
I caution you against
badgering your own witness.
884
00:42:27,720 --> 00:42:30,087
- Who turned you in?
- JAVAS: Counselor!
885
00:42:30,092 --> 00:42:31,180
I did.
886
00:42:33,900 --> 00:42:35,567
I turned myself in.
887
00:42:41,647 --> 00:42:42,735
NEERA: Why?
888
00:42:43,779 --> 00:42:45,995
Why would you risk your career,
889
00:42:45,999 --> 00:42:48,606
the life you built?
890
00:42:48,610 --> 00:42:52,088
I was so sick of living a lie,
891
00:42:52,092 --> 00:42:54,677
of pretending to be someone I wasn't.
892
00:42:56,152 --> 00:42:57,676
I wanted my crew...
893
00:42:59,012 --> 00:43:02,533
I wanted my crew to know me
for who I really was.
894
00:43:02,537 --> 00:43:06,067
I thought maybe if they did,
I would finally be safe.
895
00:43:08,804 --> 00:43:12,761
And Starfleet would finally
understand Illyrian's better.
896
00:43:12,765 --> 00:43:14,859
So, after all of it...
897
00:43:16,725 --> 00:43:19,333
... you still wanted Starfleet
to accept you.
898
00:43:19,337 --> 00:43:20,812
Why?
899
00:43:20,816 --> 00:43:22,640
When I was five or six,
900
00:43:22,644 --> 00:43:25,430
I remember a Starfleet crew visited.
901
00:43:27,644 --> 00:43:30,212
They were all so...
902
00:43:30,217 --> 00:43:32,650
different from one another.
903
00:43:32,654 --> 00:43:35,697
So many crew members
from so many planets.
904
00:43:35,701 --> 00:43:39,266
It was beautiful. I thought
905
00:43:39,270 --> 00:43:43,052
if all those people
from all those worlds
906
00:43:43,056 --> 00:43:46,577
can work together, side by side,
907
00:43:46,581 --> 00:43:49,145
maybe I could, too.
908
00:43:49,149 --> 00:43:53,193
Maybe I could be a part
of something bigger than myself.
909
00:43:53,197 --> 00:43:56,674
Starfleet is not a perfect organization,
910
00:43:56,678 --> 00:43:58,850
but it strives to be.
911
00:43:58,854 --> 00:44:01,444
And I believe it could be.
912
00:44:03,044 --> 00:44:06,248
You're saying that...
913
00:44:06,253 --> 00:44:09,470
is why you turned yourself in?
914
00:44:09,474 --> 00:44:10,993
Yes.
915
00:44:10,997 --> 00:44:14,518
Because you believe in Starfleet.
916
00:44:14,522 --> 00:44:16,611
Yes.
917
00:44:18,309 --> 00:44:21,181
Ad astra per aspera.
918
00:44:25,446 --> 00:44:27,531
Thank you, Commander.
919
00:44:27,535 --> 00:44:30,538
No further questions.
920
00:44:42,620 --> 00:44:44,887
That was a very emotional story.
921
00:44:46,424 --> 00:44:49,336
However, emotions are irrelevant.
922
00:44:49,340 --> 00:44:51,512
Facts are not.
923
00:44:51,516 --> 00:44:54,800
On what date
did Captain Christopher Pike
924
00:44:54,805 --> 00:44:56,472
learn the truth about your
925
00:44:56,477 --> 00:44:58,432
genetically modified status?
926
00:44:59,034 --> 00:45:00,545
NEERA: Objection.
927
00:45:00,550 --> 00:45:02,783
This trial is about Una Chin-Riley,
928
00:45:02,788 --> 00:45:04,220
not her captain.
929
00:45:04,224 --> 00:45:06,222
What we have here
is not just one officer's
930
00:45:06,226 --> 00:45:08,224
violation of the law.
931
00:45:08,228 --> 00:45:10,716
This incident is evidence of
breakdown of chain of command
932
00:45:10,721 --> 00:45:12,513
on board the starship Enterprise,
933
00:45:12,518 --> 00:45:15,317
starting with its captain.
934
00:45:15,322 --> 00:45:18,532
If Captain Pike was aware
of Una Chin-Riley's fraud
935
00:45:18,537 --> 00:45:22,106
prior to her arrest, and
did not notify Starfleet,
936
00:45:22,111 --> 00:45:24,371
then what we have here is not fraud,
937
00:45:24,375 --> 00:45:25,946
but conspiracy.
938
00:45:27,378 --> 00:45:30,849
Since my co-counsel
neglected to elicit testimony
939
00:45:30,854 --> 00:45:32,203
from the parties involved,
940
00:45:32,208 --> 00:45:34,272
I will ask the commander directly.
941
00:45:36,256 --> 00:45:40,216
When did Captain Pike
become aware of your status?
942
00:45:47,944 --> 00:45:49,898
I will also remind the commander
943
00:45:49,903 --> 00:45:51,919
that she is under oath.
944
00:45:51,924 --> 00:45:54,052
And I reminder her that
945
00:45:54,056 --> 00:45:56,446
she does not want to perjure herself
946
00:45:56,450 --> 00:45:58,753
as I ask one more time,
947
00:45:58,757 --> 00:46:01,582
when did Christopher Pike first learn
948
00:46:01,586 --> 00:46:03,605
that you were an Illyrian?
949
00:46:11,117 --> 00:46:13,467
Stardate 1224.3
950
00:46:16,992 --> 00:46:18,425
PASALK: Four months.
951
00:46:18,429 --> 00:46:21,776
Well before your arrest.
952
00:46:21,780 --> 00:46:23,995
For four months,
953
00:46:23,999 --> 00:46:26,209
the captain of the Enterprise
954
00:46:26,214 --> 00:46:27,986
engaged in a conspiracy
955
00:46:27,991 --> 00:46:31,033
to conceal the Illyrian Una Chin-Riley.
956
00:46:32,565 --> 00:46:34,480
I have no further questions.
957
00:46:47,632 --> 00:46:50,107
PASALK: The defense wants you
to ignore the facts
958
00:46:50,112 --> 00:46:51,762
in favor of emotion.
959
00:46:51,766 --> 00:46:55,331
But the only matter
of import today is the law.
960
00:46:55,335 --> 00:46:57,333
Una Chin-Riley
961
00:46:57,337 --> 00:46:59,466
broke the law and lied about it,
962
00:46:59,470 --> 00:47:02,686
as her own testimony has proven. Further,
963
00:47:02,690 --> 00:47:05,341
her actions will likely
lead to a court martial of
964
00:47:05,345 --> 00:47:08,293
one of Starfleet's
most decorated officers.
965
00:47:08,298 --> 00:47:10,905
She is clearly toxic to Starfleet
966
00:47:10,910 --> 00:47:13,740
in both action an inaction.
967
00:47:13,745 --> 00:47:15,830
Therefore, the only logical response
968
00:47:15,834 --> 00:47:19,281
is to find the defendant
guilty of all charges.
969
00:47:27,810 --> 00:47:30,900
Captain Batel, are you familiar with
970
00:47:30,905 --> 00:47:35,110
the Starfleet Code 8514?
971
00:47:35,115 --> 00:47:36,678
I am.
972
00:47:36,683 --> 00:47:39,246
Would you mind reading
that code for the court?
973
00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:46,115
BATEL: "In extraordinary
and extreme circumstances,
974
00:47:46,120 --> 00:47:48,390
if the following conditions are met:
975
00:47:48,395 --> 00:47:51,865
1. any person fleeing persecution...
976
00:47:51,870 --> 00:47:53,694
We were persecuted.
977
00:47:53,698 --> 00:47:55,752
I remember when the attacks began.
978
00:47:56,754 --> 00:47:59,288
"... or fearing for their life
due to political
979
00:47:59,293 --> 00:48:00,395
or religious beliefs,
980
00:48:00,400 --> 00:48:01,906
cultural engagements or
981
00:48:01,911 --> 00:48:03,965
biological truths may,
982
00:48:03,969 --> 00:48:07,751
2. seek safety within Starfleet...
983
00:48:07,755 --> 00:48:10,690
I thought maybe if they did,
I would finally be safe.
984
00:48:10,695 --> 00:48:11,997
We feared for our lives.
985
00:48:12,002 --> 00:48:13,452
"and 3.
986
00:48:13,457 --> 00:48:16,144
upon revealing themselves to authorities
987
00:48:16,149 --> 00:48:17,194
and making a request,
988
00:48:17,199 --> 00:48:18,779
may be granted asylum".
989
00:48:19,767 --> 00:48:21,317
I turned myself in.
990
00:48:21,322 --> 00:48:24,159
I wanted my crew to know me
for who I really was.
991
00:48:24,163 --> 00:48:26,926
BATEL: "Starfleet captains
must exercise discretion
992
00:48:26,931 --> 00:48:29,643
in judgement when offering asylum.
993
00:48:29,647 --> 00:48:32,061
Status is confirmed
by a Starfleet tribunal
994
00:48:32,066 --> 00:48:33,755
or designated authority".
995
00:48:37,306 --> 00:48:40,958
Fearing for their life.
996
00:48:40,962 --> 00:48:44,527
One may seek safety within Starfleet
997
00:48:44,531 --> 00:48:47,408
and request asylum.
998
00:48:49,318 --> 00:48:51,882
Starfleet has a long tradition
999
00:48:51,886 --> 00:48:54,581
of performing rescue missions.
1000
00:48:54,585 --> 00:48:56,670
How many distressed peoples
1001
00:48:56,674 --> 00:48:58,889
has Starfleet aided?
1002
00:48:58,893 --> 00:49:01,287
How many lives saved?
1003
00:49:02,636 --> 00:49:04,504
Una Chin-Riley knew this.
1004
00:49:04,508 --> 00:49:07,463
She believed in the best of Starfleet,
1005
00:49:07,467 --> 00:49:10,069
and that through it
she could find salvation
1006
00:49:10,074 --> 00:49:14,279
from the hardships and danger
of her everyday life.
1007
00:49:14,973 --> 00:49:16,515
Danger she faced
1008
00:49:16,520 --> 00:49:19,606
just for being born an Illyrian.
1009
00:49:19,610 --> 00:49:23,261
Dangers born of prejudice,
1010
00:49:23,265 --> 00:49:26,808
spurred on by laws
against people like her.
1011
00:49:28,314 --> 00:49:30,573
But through her hardships,
1012
00:49:30,577 --> 00:49:33,184
Una saw the stars.
1013
00:49:33,786 --> 00:49:36,550
She joined Starfleet
because she believed
1014
00:49:36,555 --> 00:49:38,014
it was the only thing
1015
00:49:38,019 --> 00:49:40,235
that could save her life.
1016
00:49:40,239 --> 00:49:43,934
She fled persecution,
and within Starfleet
1017
00:49:43,938 --> 00:49:46,110
she sought safety.
1018
00:49:46,114 --> 00:49:48,548
And then, by turning herself in,
1019
00:49:48,552 --> 00:49:50,923
Una fulfilled the third
1020
00:49:50,928 --> 00:49:53,408
and final requirement for asylum.
1021
00:49:57,604 --> 00:50:00,385
She asked for it
1022
00:50:00,389 --> 00:50:03,867
and Captain Pike granted it.
1023
00:50:03,871 --> 00:50:06,870
Like all good Starfleet captains,
1024
00:50:06,874 --> 00:50:10,004
including Admiral April on Perrican,
1025
00:50:10,008 --> 00:50:12,615
Na'rel and Man-us 2,
1026
00:50:12,619 --> 00:50:15,444
he exercised his judgement
1027
00:50:15,448 --> 00:50:18,059
and gave her asylum.
1028
00:50:20,218 --> 00:50:23,221
All this tribunal needs to do now...
1029
00:50:24,649 --> 00:50:28,653
... is confirm that status
to absolve them both.
1030
00:50:35,649 --> 00:50:37,900
Do you know why I love the law?
1031
00:50:37,905 --> 00:50:41,601
Because a law is not
1032
00:50:41,605 --> 00:50:44,299
a mirror to society.
1033
00:50:44,303 --> 00:50:47,563
A law is an ideal.
1034
00:50:47,567 --> 00:50:50,982
A beacon to remind us
1035
00:50:50,987 --> 00:50:53,481
how to be our better selves.
1036
00:50:53,486 --> 00:50:56,746
And you have the opportunity today
1037
00:50:56,750 --> 00:50:59,927
to do just that.
1038
00:51:01,545 --> 00:51:04,144
Mr. Pasalk has made this case
about the law,
1039
00:51:04,149 --> 00:51:05,668
and I agree, it is.
1040
00:51:05,672 --> 00:51:09,211
By his own argument,
we cannot ignore that
1041
00:51:09,216 --> 00:51:12,737
Code 8514 is also law.
1042
00:51:13,240 --> 00:51:16,500
All I am asking you
1043
00:51:16,505 --> 00:51:19,488
to do today
1044
00:51:19,493 --> 00:51:22,556
is to be your better selves
1045
00:51:22,561 --> 00:51:24,838
and enforce the law
1046
00:51:24,843 --> 00:51:26,293
that favors my client
1047
00:51:26,298 --> 00:51:27,907
with the same dispassion
1048
00:51:27,912 --> 00:51:30,780
as the laws that would exclude her.
1049
00:51:30,784 --> 00:51:32,673
Years ago...
1050
00:51:36,007 --> 00:51:38,440
... the ideals of Starfleet
1051
00:51:38,444 --> 00:51:40,703
called a young girl
1052
00:51:40,707 --> 00:51:43,318
from the far side
of the galaxy to service.
1053
00:51:45,886 --> 00:51:48,459
Find those ideals inside yourself.
1054
00:51:49,977 --> 00:51:51,888
Grant Una Chin-Riley
1055
00:51:51,892 --> 00:51:55,104
the asylum she was so clearly seeking.
1056
00:52:05,253 --> 00:52:07,008
JAVAS: I think we could all agree
1057
00:52:07,013 --> 00:52:09,347
that the issue of genetic engineering
1058
00:52:09,352 --> 00:52:11,559
is a nuanced one.
1059
00:52:11,564 --> 00:52:15,738
The laws prohibiting it
exist for very good reasons.
1060
00:52:15,742 --> 00:52:18,088
And regulations must persist
1061
00:52:18,092 --> 00:52:20,612
so we may not one day
face another crisis
1062
00:52:20,616 --> 00:52:22,789
like the Eugenics Wars.
1063
00:52:22,793 --> 00:52:25,356
But this court also believes
1064
00:52:25,360 --> 00:52:29,598
that these reasons cannot
and do not allow us to treat
1065
00:52:29,603 --> 00:52:33,808
every individual augment, Illyrian,
1066
00:52:33,813 --> 00:52:37,803
or other persons
with modified DNA the same.
1067
00:52:37,808 --> 00:52:39,762
Lines must be drawn,
1068
00:52:39,766 --> 00:52:42,896
but they must also shift when necessary.
1069
00:52:42,900 --> 00:52:45,500
Perhaps someday Starfleet
and the Federation
1070
00:52:45,505 --> 00:52:48,446
may change its views, but today
1071
00:52:48,451 --> 00:52:50,275
I'm afraid all we can do is consider
1072
00:52:50,280 --> 00:52:51,555
what the defense has asked.
1073
00:52:51,560 --> 00:52:53,776
That we judge the defendant's
1074
00:52:53,780 --> 00:52:56,561

You figured it all out. My admission.

What would happen

I'm sorry we didn't
do more for Illyrians.
