Captain, we have arrived at tanuga iv.
The away team has completed its survey of Dr. Apgar's work
- and is ready to return to the ship. - Good.
Oh, please. And feel free to examine the work of the other students too.
Data:
Ensign Williams' striking style
is heavily influenced by geometric oonstructivism.
Lieutenant Wright has effectively fused the incongruities of the surrealists
with the irrationality of dadaism.
- Interesting. - Oh, thank you.
In what way?
While suggesting the free treatment of form usually attributed to fauvism,
this quite inappropriately attempts to juxtapose
the disparate cubistic styles of Picasso and léger.
In addition, the use of color suggests a haphazard mélange
of clashing styles.
Furthermore, the unsettling overtones of proto-vulcan influences...
Thank you, Mr. Data.
You are welcome, sir. If I can be of further assistance...
No. Thank you.
[Door opens then closes]
Picard: Captain's log, stardate 43610.4.
After completing a delivery of dicosilium
to the tanuga iv research station,
our away team has received an update from Dr. Nel apgar
on his efforts to create Krieger waves,
a potentially valuable new power source.
Welcome back, Mr. La forge.
- Thank you, sir. - Where's commander riker?
He's still down on the station, sir.
Doctor apgar wanted to have a word with him.
Any problems?
Not with the scientific part of the mission, no, sir.
Riker [over com]: Riker to enterprise.
I'm ready to leave now.
I'm sure commander riker will be able to explain everything, captain.
O'brien [over com]: Stand by, commander. Engaging transport.
[Systems powering down] [Panel beeping]
Transporter room to engineering. I have a power drain.
Transporter room, is commander riker aboard?
O'brien: Not yet, captain. I'm having trouble clearing the signal.
Transporter room to bridge. He's aboard.
Why do you sound so surprised, Mr. O'brien?
Well, for a moment, we weren't sure you left the space station in time.
- In time for what? - It just exploded, sir.
Picard: Space, the final frontier.
These are the voyages of the starship enterprise.
Its continuing mission: To explore strange new worlds,
to seek out new life and new civilizations,
to boldly go where no one has gone before.
Picard: Captain's log, supplemental.
Commander riker has informed me that Dr. Apgar was the only one
aboard the space station when it exploded.
We remain in orbit, investigating the accident.
I've gone through the whole system, captain.
I can't find any malfunction in the transporter,
or nothing that would cause an explosion like that.
Why was there a power drain before transport?
O'brien: I don't know, sir.
I shall want an answer to that. I'm sure the tanugans will too.
O'brien: Yes, sir.
Captain, the radiation and debris are consistent
with an overload of the station's reactor core.
Were there any indications of reactor-core problems
- while you were on the station? - No, sir.
Number one?
Mr. La forge indicated that this was not an entirely routine mission.
It's a long story, sir.
But I'm sure it doesn't have anything to do with this accident.
Captain, chief investigator krag of the tanugan security force
requests permission to beam aboard.
Granted. Will you escort him to the bridge, Mr. Worf?
Worf: Aye, sir.
Perhaps you had better tell me as much as possible
prior to his arrival, number one.
Worf: I'm lieutenant worf, head of ship's security.
I will take you to the captain.
Picard: Chief investigator, welcome to the enterprise.
I'm captain picard.
This is my first officer, commander William riker.
Commander riker, I am here to take you into custody.
Custody? On what charge?
Suspicion of murder.
Murder? Now, wait a minute, you can't come...
Chief investigator, we are perfectly willing to cooperate with you...
Then release the prisoner for transportation to the planet.
Let's continue this discussion in private.
Uh, number one, you have the bridge.
Just what is the evidence against my officer?
Two witnesses have come fonnard
to describe commander riker's threats against Dr. Apgar.
Threats?
I'm aware there was a private conversation between them.
Apparently it was much more than just a private conversation.
But he will be given a chance to prove his innocence.
Investigator, in our system ofjurisprudence,
a man is innocent until proved guilty.
In ours, he is guilty until he is proved innocent,
and you are under ourjurisdiction.
If I understand federation regulations on this matter,
and I just happened to look them up before...
I am aware of federation regulations, sir.
And if you investigate them further,
you will find the captain decides if extradition is warranted.
Are you saying it is not?
I am saying if there is sufficient cause to warrant a trial,
I will release my officer into your custody.
Would you say that you are close to your first officer, captain?
That question is irrelevant here.
Really, captain, you cannot believe that.
How can I expect a fair and impartial decision?
- I must protect the rights of my officer. - I can appreciate that.
But you will do it on the planet, not here.
After all, what if you were suddenly to decide to leave this star system?
You have my word as a starfleet officer that I will not.
Unacceptable.
Captain, you will turn him over to me for interrogation now.
Interrogate him here.
We must re-create, step by step, moment by moment,
all the events leading to the explosion.
We will require access to all the witnesses,
as well as the data from the lab's ground computers.
It would be impossible to accomplish here.
Perhaps not. Mr. Data, will you report to my ready room?
Data [over com]: Aye, sir.
We may be able to assist you in re-creating these events.
Commander data, this is chief inspector krag.
Commander, by taking testimony from the away team
and from witnesses provided by the investigator,
would it be possible to program the holodeck
to re-create what happened on the science station?
It would require construction and design specifications,
full orthographic representations of the Krieger equipment,
as well as visual representations
and voice analyses of the persons involved.
But it is possible.
Very well. Arrangements will be made
to provide you with all available information.
I shall return shortly with our witnesses.
Commander, will you escort investigator krag
to transporter room 3?
Ensign crusher, Mr. La forge,
we are going to re-create the research station here on the holodeck.
I want you to work with commander data on the preparations.
In addition, commander la forge and commander riker,
I want you to give the computer detailed depositions
of everything you saw, everything you heard while you were on board.
Counselor, I want you to assist me during this inquiry.
My decision about the extradition will be based on the evidence
presented during these re-creations.
Captain.
May I have a word with you?
Under the circumstances, number one,
I think that would be inappropriate.
Data: Second officer's log, stardate 43611.6.
Programming of the holodeck has taken 18 hours, 11 minutes,
and is now complete.
All participants have entered their depositions.
Technical schematics and complete records
from the lab's ground computers,
as well as Dr. Apgar's personal logs, have been included.
The re-creations will have a nominal 8.7 percent margin of error.
Is there anything you'd like to say before we begin, number one?
Just this: I'm not a murderer.
I went to the tanugan lab as an official representative of starfleet.
I acted accordingly.
I was there to evaluate Dr. Apgar's progress
in the development of a Krieger wave converter.
That's all I was interested in.
Computer.
Load deposition program riker 1.
Run the simulation.
Dr. Apgar, I'm commander William riker.
Lieutenant commander geordi la forge.
My assistant, tayna. Well, let's get on with it, shall we?
Let's not be in such a hurry, dear.
Perhaps our guests would care for some refreshments.
My wife, manua.
Riker: A pleasure to meet you, Mrs. Apgar.
If you're prepared to start, so are we.
Of course I'm prepared.
All right, why don't you give me an overview of your research
while Mr. La forge and your assistant take a look at the experimental data?
Fine, whatever. I must say, commander, I resent this early arrival.
Starfleet will get its converter. I've had a few setbacks, that's all.
We're not here to pressure you, doctor.
We just want an update on your progress.
Tayna, show the commander's assistant whatever he wants to see.
Give him full access to our records.
Tayna: Yes, doctor. If you'll come with me.
Our lambda-field generator is on the planet,
since it requires a minimum of 5000 kilometers
- for the field to collimate. - Really, darling, you're being rude.
After all, commander riker is willing
to sit through all your prattle about Krieger waves.
Let's have a drink, commander, and we'll hear all about Krieger waves.
- To your success, doctor. - Apgar: Mm-hm.
Riker, what is starfleet doing here, anyway?
My delivery wasn't scheduled for another three months.
Well, we were in this sector on another mission,
and since you had already contacted starfleet about additional dicosilium,
it seemed like a good opportunity.
How interesting. Tell us about this other mission.
Oh, it's just a study of a protostar cloud.
The enterprise will be back tomorrow.
The enterprise just left you here?
We didn't want to inconvenience you.
We've made arrangements for quarters.
Oh, I won't hear of such a thing.
Commander, I insist you and Mr. La forge stay with us.
- I hardly think... - I know that you would prefer
to be left alone with your very important work,
but I, for one, am glad for the company.
[Door opens then closes]
I must apologize for my husband's lack of social graces.
He may be one of the great scientific minds in the galaxy,
but he does come up a bit short in other areas.
Wait a moment. Stop.
Computer, freeze program.
Then it's your testimony that it was Mrs. Apgar's idea
for you to spend the night aboard the space station.
It's my testimony and it's the truth.
Resume program.
Our guest quarters aren't luxurious,
but I've tried to make this room warm and inviting.
I'll be very comfortable, thank you. Good night.
[Manua chuckles]
The environmental controls are over here.
I'm sure I'll find everything I need.
And the door shuts by touching this panel.
- Mrs. Apgar... - This is my sanctuary.
Privacy is very important on a small station.
I'm left alone here, often for hours.
It's late. I am tired.
[Manua chuckles]
Are you still tired, commander?
Ma'am, excuse me. I really think that you ought to leave.
I knew I'd find you with him.
Did you think I didn't notice how you looked at him?
- I'm not the fool you take me for. - Riker: Doctor...
Man ua: Ah!
Doctor, believe me, this has been a terrible mistake.
You won't get away with this, I'll see to it. I swear I will, riker.
Freeze program.
I didn't see Dr. Apgar until the following morning,
when he asked to see me alone.
Commander la forge returned to the enterprise.
Resume program.
Isuppose if I make a formal complaint,
your report on my work won't be very good.
Doctor, this is going to have no impact on my report.
It was a misunderstanding of the worst kind.
We can straighten the entire thing out if you would ask Mrs. Apgar to join us.
My wife and my assistant have transported down to the planet.
What are you going to put in your report, riker?
That there is no justification
for all the extra dicosilium I've requested?
That is why they sent you early, isn't it?
- Doctor, I... - I can explain why I needed it.
They have no idea what my problems are.
- There are explanations for all of it. - I don't need explanations.
Then we have nothing further to say to each other.
I'll tell my captain to expect your grievance.
Riker to enterprise. I'm ready to leave now.
O'brien [over com]: Stand by, commander.
- Engaging transport. - Freeze program.
Then I returned to the enterprise.
And you have nothing further to add, commander?
Nothing about firing a phaser?
I never fired a phaser on the science station.
That's odd. Very odd.
Captain picard, is it not true that your sensors
detected an energy drain just as commander riker began transport?
That's correct.
Krag: Have you been able to explain it?
Picard: Not to my knowledge.
We have.
Our readings are quite clear about it.
Information retrieved from the lab's ground computers
indicate that a focused energy pulse was fired
just as commander riker began transport.
Furthermore, by analyzing the angle and trajectory,
we have determined that it came from the very spot
commander riker was standing.
So then, will you allow me to show you my re-creation of the end of this story?
A speculation, if you will.
Computer, run hypothetical krag 1.
Riker to enterprise. I'm ready to leave now.
O'brien [over com]: Stand by, commander. Engaging transport.
Krag: Freeze program.
Three seconds later the space station exploded.
La forge: The tanugans are right. Something was fired
at the reactor core just before transport.
The energy signature would seem to indicate a phaser-like blast.
It wasn't the commander's phaser, it couldn't have been.
There's another answer, we're just not seeing it.
Was there anything else in the lab
capable of creating this kind of energy discharge?
Not that I saw.
Besides, how do you account for the fact
that it came from commander riker's exact position?
Damn it, I should have stayed with him.
Commander.
Sensors indicate a radiation burst on deck 39, outside cargo bay 12.
- Source? - Unknown, sir.
Computer, identify type of radiation.
Computer: Emission is not consistent with any known radiation.
It is subsiding, sir.
Wesley: What kind of radiation could do this?
- Make any sense to you? - I don't recognize it.
Not even the main deflector puts out that kind of spillage.
- Where would it be coming from? - I don't know, Wes.
But whatever it is, it's capable of putting a hole in solid duranium.
In a sense, we have already met Mrs. Apgar,
so we shall dispense with introductions.
Mrs. Apgar, do you understand the purpose of this hearing?
We understand how difficult this will be for you.
If you need a recess, please don't hesitate to ask.
Picard: Would you like to make a statement before we begin?
I just know he did it. He killed my husband.
Computer, load manua simulation 1.
Run program.
If you greet them with such a long face,
they're going to assume something is wrong with the experiment.
I just need time. A little more time.
I'm certain they'll give you all the time you need
if you'd just show a little charm.
You do that so much better than I do.
Manua, someday I'll be able to reward you for all your Patience.
I'll get you everything you ever dreamed of.
I have all the reward I need. Now, go on. I'll be right in.
[Door opens then closes]
Dr. Apgar? I'm commander William riker.
Lieutenant commander geordi la forge.
My assistant, tayna. Well, let's get on with it, shall we?
Don't be in such a hurry, dear.
Perhaps our guests would like some refreshment.
- My wife, manua. - A pleasure to meet you, manua.
- Apgar: I'm anxious to get started. - If you wish.
I must say, I resent your early arrival, commander.
I have much work to do.
Doctor, I'll do everything in my power
to make this as painless as possible for both of us.
Do you assist your husband in his work?
Oh, dear, no, I'm no scientist.
No, neither am I.
But I find this all fascinating, don't you?
Mr. La forge, why don't you take a look
at the doctor's experimental data? Later, you can give me an overview.
Fine, whatever. Starfleet will get its Krieger wave converter.
These things take time. I've had a few setbacks, that's all.
Riker: Doctor, I'm not trying to put pressure on you.
I'm sure my report will only underscore the need
for continued support of your research.
Mm-hm. Tayna, I'll call up the records.
Show the commander's assistant whatever he wants to see.
Yes, doctor. If you'll come with me.
Our field generator is on the planet
since it requires a minimum of 5000 kilometers
- for the field to collimate. La forge: Hmm.
Darling, let tayna take care of that.
I'm sure commander riker wants to hear
how close you are to a breakthrough.
I'll pour the two of you a drink
and you can talk all about Krieger waves.
Commander.
- To success. - Success.
Well, in a way, I suppose it's good that you're early.
Manua's right, it, uh, gives me a chance
to show you the progress we've been making.
I would appreciate it if commander la forge and I
could stay here until the enterprise returns.
Uh, it's a little inconvenient.
It would help to accelerate the process.
Well, if you wish, commander.
Now, uh, where shall I start?
Well, first of all, you should know that I am very close
to being able to collimate a Krieger field.
- Our guest quarters are quite modest. - Riker: Very charming.
It has your touch.
The station is small and we don't often have guests,
- so I use this as my sanctuary. - Who do you need sanctuary from?
[Manua chuckles]
The environmental controls are here.
[Manua sighs]
Commander, please. It's late and I'm tired.
A man more interested in Krieger waves
than a lovely woman like you. How is that possible?
My husband is one of the greatest minds in the galaxy,
and we love each other very much... Please, don't.
Riker: It must be very lonely. A Princess in a very high tower.
Please, my husband will be looking for me.
- Your sanctuary, remember? - Commander, don't, please.
She's lying. That never happened.
- Freeze program. - Please...
Captain, you know I would never act like that.
Commander riker.
This isn't me. I wasn't the one who closed the door.
I didn't proposition her, and I certainly didn't try to rape her.
Why are you doing this?
It's exactly what happened.
Will, come on, sit down.
Resume program.
Please.
I knew you'd try this, riker.
Do you think I didn't notice how you looked at her?
I'm not the fool you take me for.
[Apgar grunts]
You won't get away with this. Your career is over.
I'll see to it. I swear I will, riker.
If you report this, you'll be making a terrible mistake, doctor.
A terrible mistake.
Freeze program.
Youi' career was safe.
He was a scientist.
In another day, some fascinating bit of technical trivia
would have distracted him.
He would have forgotten about you and his complaint to starfleet.
Excuse me.
[Door opens then closes]
We'll, um...
We'll take a short recess.
Why would she lie like that?
She was lying. You could tell.
Will, I didn't sense any deception from her.
- Then you think that I...? - No, no, of course not.
I know you. You don't have to convince me of anything.
We can't both be telling the truth.
It is the truth, as each of you remembers it.
But her version puts a noose around my neck.
This is healing beautifully.
I think you can work on strengthening those muscles again.
Worf [over com]: Security to Dr. Crusher. Evacuate.
[Alarm blaring]
Repeat, evacuate.
Radiation emissions are indicated in sickbay.
This is definitely the same radiation that penetrated deck 39.
Highly focused, very powerful, but of unknown origin.
If this should happen near the engine core
or the antimatter containment tanks, we'll be in big trouble, captain.
Do you have any theories?
Captain, data's noticed something that's too strange to be a coincidence.
The two radiation events aboard the enterprise
occurred five hours, 20 minutes and three seconds apart.
The science station exploded yesterday at almost four times that interval.
There's a .0014-second variance we haven't been able to explain yet.
So you're saying there's a connection
between the radiation bursts and the explosion?
We do not have the evidence to support that conclusion
at this time, commander.
If they're right, we should be able to predict the next event.
We're expecting it in just over five hours.
Well, take every precaution to protect the ship's vital areas.
If we haven't identified the source before the next time interval
we'll leave orbit.
If you perceive any further danger, advise me immediately.
We'll figure it out for you, commander.
After the fight, Dr. Apgar came to find me.
He was very upset.
And he told you what happened?
Yes, he told me everything that happened.
Based on tayna's deposition,
we have re-created the incident in commander riker's quarters
as Dr. Apgar described it to her.
- Computer... - Inspector. Inspector, this is hearsay.
- She wasn't a witness to this incident. - But Dr. Apgar is dead.
Her statement is admissible according to tanugan law,
and I insist you consider it.
Well...
We'll watch this evidence and we'll weigh it accordingly.
Computer, run tayna simulation 3.
I knew I'd find the two of you together.
Do you think I didn't notice how you were looking at each other?
I'm not the fool you take me for.
[Riker grunting]
I'm going to report this, riker. You can count on that.
You're a dead man, apgar. A dead man.
Freeze program.
And then Dr. Apgar came to find you?
- Yes. - Run tayna simulation 4.
I want you to take manua
and beam down to tanuga immediately.
But, doctor, if he threatened you, you shouldn't stay.
I'm not leaving him here alone. He's capable of anything.
I've got to protect our work.
- I'll contact the authorities. - No.
I'll take care of that.
Doctor, be careful.
It'll be all right. Go on.
Krag: Freeze program.
- Then what happened? - I left the station with manua.
The next day, when I heard the station had exploded,
I knew what had happened. He'd killed Dr. Apgar.
Thank you. You are excused.
Captain, I have established motive, method and opportunity.
In any court in the federation, that is sufficient
to warrant the extradition of the accused.
I await your decision forthwith.
- I don't see any alternative. Do you? - We both know will's innocent.
Of course he's innocent.
But as a starfleet captain, I can't allow myself the luxury
of yielding to personal feelings.
The evidence warrants a trial. I'll have to allow extradition.
Do you think there is enough evidence to prove his innocence?
Data [over com]: Captain, [Believe we have found the source
of the radiation.
- Can you join us on the bridge? - Acknowledged.
As you know, captain, we are looking for a phenomenon
that reoccurs every five hours, 20 minutes and three seconds.
The interval between radiation bursts.
We have found one such phenomenon on the planet's surface.
It's the field generator that apgar used during his research.
When it's fully charged it automatically emits an energy pulse,
and then takes five hours, 20 minutes and three seconds to recharge itself.
It must have been left on after the explosion at the lab.
But why would a generator be affecting the enterprise in this way?
It should not be. It is a harmless lambda-field generator.
But we knew that somehow it was related to our radiation bursts,
and then the pieces just started falling together.
We now know what is causing the bursts,
and why the science station exploded, sir.
And we also know who killed Dr. Apgar.
Chief inspector, we've watched these events
replayed over and over again,
and I am impressed and admittedly dismayed,
by the body of evidence against commander riker.
But isn't it remarkable, that with all the witnesses,
all the different points of view of the events aboard the space station,
we haven't seen what really happened?
I do not understand.
Ah. Allow me, with the help of Mr. La forge, to explain.
Computer, load manua program 1,
Play program.
Fine, whatever. Starfleet will get its Krieger wave converter.
These things take time. I've had a few setbacks, that's all.
Picard: Freeze.
Mrs. Apgar, this is taken from your deposition.
It would seem to suggest that your husband
had failed to create Krieger waves.
Yes, but he was very close to a breakthrough.
He said he needed more time. He was upset by our early arrival.
But in fact, I maintain that he had already made that breakthrough
and that he was lying to us.
On what basis?
For the last several hours, the enterprise has been experiencing
unusual radiation bursts.
We've identified them as Krieger waves.
Krieger waves? But that's impossible. From where?
From right here, inside the holodeck.
Picard: We have re-created your science lab in every conceivable detail.
Essentially, what was in the original lab is here.
Including the Krieger wave converter that Dr. Apgar claimed didn't work.
Except it does work.
Your field generator down on the planet's surface
has been sending out harmless energy charges,
which this facsimile had been converting into Krieger waves.
But the holodeck can't create anything dangerous.
Well, it didn't.
When you get down to basics, the converter is nothing more
than a complex series of mirrors and reflective coils.
The energy from the field generator down on the planet
simply reflects off of elements in the converter,
which turns it into highly focused Krieger waves.
And those same waves have been randomly striking
different areas of our ship as we orbit the planet
and our angle to the generator changes.
Why would Dr. Apgar lie about his success?
Computer, run manua program 1, time index 1438.
Manua, someday I'll be able to reward you for all your Patience.
I'll get you everything you ever dreamed of.
I have all the reward I need.
Freeze program. Computer, run riker program 2,
- To your success, doctor. - And the rewards that come with it.
Picard: Freeze.
I never said that.
Nevertheless, it seems clear that your husband
was motivated to earn the rewards that pleased you, Mrs. Apgar.
What's wrong with that?
Well, he wouldn't have earned great profits
from his dealings with starfleet.
We were only interested in a new power source.
But if he could turn this into a weapon,
it would be worth a lot to the romulans, the ferengi,
and a few others.
Now, Dr. Apgar had been ordering extra dicosilium for months.
That's a pretty good indication
that he was trying to create larger reflective coils.
And when the away team arrived early,
he must have been worried that starfleet was becoming suspicious.
He needed more time to finish his work.
Apgar said that in each of the three versions.
No doubt, he was afraid
that commander riker might learn the truth
and cut off his support prematurely.
Discovering commander riker with his wife didn't help matters.
I submit he decided to murder commander riker.
- Ridiculous. - Is it?
Computer, run tayna program 4,
- I'll contact the authorities. - No. I'll take care of that.
Picard: Freeze.
Tayna, what exactly is apgar doing here?
Activating the generator on the planet.
And why would he do that?
Maybe he was going to work on the converter. I don't know.
Or maybe he was already thinking ahead
to his next confrontation with commander riker.
Computer, play riker program 4, time index 2041.
What are you going to put in your report, riker?
That there's no justification
for all the extra dicosilium I've requested?
That is why they sent you early, isn't it?
- Doctor... - I can explain why I needed it.
They have no idea what my problems are.
- There are explanations for it all... - I don't need explanations.
Picard: Freeze.
To apgar, this must have seemed
as though commander riker were confirming his worst fears.
And I believe it was now that he finally decided to kill him.
Krag: You forget, picard.
We know that the energy pulse which blew up the reactor
originated from commander riker's position, not Dr. Apgar's.
Hmm. We are hypothesizing that Dr. Apgar energized the converter
at the moment of commander riker's beam-out,
hoping to make his death look like a transporter accident.
But something went wrong.
The energy pulse hit the transporter beam
and reflected back to the reactor, which caused the explosion.
An interesting hypothesis, but impossible to prove.
Not really. We know that the field generator on the planet
has been repeating a discharge ever since the explosion.
The intervals are like clockwork,
except the explosion occurred .0014 seconds
after the initial discharge.
And the only explanation for that variance
is the time it would take the energy pulse to bounce back
from the transporter beam to the reactor.
We've arranged a demonstration to illustrate.
Mr. La forge, I think it's about time, isn't it?
Computer, load program la forge 1.
Coordinate auto-engage time sequence.
The next discharge from the field generator
is scheduled to occur in just a few moments.
And we've aligned the holodeck program
to re-create the final events as commander riker described them.
Only this time, our facsimile will automatically process
the energy charge from the planet and reflect it,
just as the original converter did before the explosion.
And if we're correct we'll know it instantly.
Computer: Auto-engage time sequence synchronized.
Then we have nothing further to say to each other.
I'll tell my captain to expect your grievance.
Riker to enterprise. I'm ready to leave now.
O'brien [over com]: Stand by, commander. Engaging transport.
Dr. Apgar killed himself during his attempt to kill commander riker.
Based on this new evidence,
I withdraw my request for commander riker's extradition.
Commander, my apologies.
Number one, have we any further business in the tanuga system?
Not that I know of. I'd be more than willing to put it behind me.
Then perhaps you would do me the pleasure
- of getting this ship undennay. - With pleasure, sir.
Ensign crusher, set course for emila ii, warp 3.
