PICARD:
Captain's log, stardate 42286.3.

We've arrived on station
at coordinates 3629 by 584,

three days early for our rendezvous
with the USS Victory.

There is nothing to do now
but hold this position and wait.

MAN:
Computer command systems.

WOMAN 1:
Thank you.

- Yes, commander?
- Is there a problem?

Chief Engineer La Forge called for me,
urgent.

Oh, of course.
He's over there with the Victory.

WOMAN 2:
Attitude indicator is forward.

Geordi, I've just had a strange
conversation with your assistant.

Although it is three days until we
rendezvous with starship Victory, she--

She believes it has already arrived?

Not the starship, my friend.

The original.

This is my gift
to the Victory's Captain Zimbata.

Ah.

Most unusual.

I served with him as an ensign.

Sure wish he'd been in command
of this Victory.

Wind and sail,
that's the proper way to move a ship.

But, Geordi, your starfleet specialty

is antimatter power,
dilithium regulators--

That's exactly why
this fascinates me, Data.

See, it's human nature
to love what we don't have.

Simpler days, huh?

Anyway, stringing this rigging
has made me dream

of handling sails...

This is not a computer simulation?

Data, the whole point
in doing something like this

- is to make it by hand.
- Hmm.

Geordi...

your message said urgent.

Oh, so it is. While we're waiting
to rendezvous with the Victory,

we have time for me to be Watson.

More properly, your Watson.

My Watson?

Well, I've just shown you
one of my dreams.

Now let's go and share
in one of yours.

Ah, yes.

That does seem only fair.

Clancy, I'll be gone for a while.
See that no one touches this.

Aye, sir,
and where can I reach you?

DATA: He can be reached
at 221B Baker Street.

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.

Computer, select at random a mystery
by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle,

in which I will play Sherlock Holmes

and Lieutenant La Forge
will be Dr. John Watson.

COMPUTER:
Program complete. You may enter.

DATA:
Excellent.

Look at all the detail.

So you say everything in here
has some significance?

Holmes collected nothing.

Neither trinkets nor thoughts

which were not specifically
significant to him.

This?

The emerald tie pin presented
to Holmes by Queen Victoria

after he solved the theft
of the Bruce-Partington plans.

A copy of Whitaker's Almanack

which provided Holmes with the key

to the secret code
in The Valley of Fear.

The snuff box of Wilhelm Gottsreich
Sigismond von Ormstein.

All right, Data, you solve the cases
and get all the gifts.

What do I do?

Primarily, as Dr. Watson,

you will keep a written record
of everything I say and do.

For later publication.

And the famous Holmes' violin.

He purchased this in a pawn shop
on Tottenham Court Road

for 55 shillings,

which he considered to be
a very good investment.

[PLAYING CLASSICAL MUSIC]

In the hands of some,
the violin is a wondrous thing.

Equally capable of stirring the soul
to the heights of bliss

as to the depths of despair.

But--

Data, that's incredible.
How can you play it like that?

Merely throwing myself into the part,
Watson.

[CLEARS THROAT]

But in the hands of my friend,

Mr. Sherlock Holmes,

the violin ceases to be
a musical instrument at all

- and becomes--
- Watson, we're about to have guests.

How could you possibly--?

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

Be a good fellow and answer that.
Let's not keep the inspector waiting.

LA FORGE:
Inspector who?

Lestrade, of course.

LESTRADE:
Holmes! Are you there, man?

Oh, thank the Almighty
you're available today, old chum.

I'm in a deuce of a dilemma.

And may I say your perturbation
becomes you, Inspector Lestrade,

whilst simultaneously affording me
the opportunity

to yet again serve queen
and country.

Data, Holmes really talked like that?

Absolutely.

LESTRADE:
We need your help, Holmes.

You see, this gentleman here,

the emissary
of a foreign government,

has been the victim
of a most accidentally wicked crime.

[CLICKING]

Damn! Haven't they invented
the electric light by now?

What, dear fellow?

Tsk, tsk, tsk.
Watson. Pray continue, inspector.

LESTRADE:
To put the matter simply, Holmes,

this man was accosted by gypsies

intent on depriving him
of his most valuable possessions.

And in the process
of picking his pockets clean,

they also happened to bag
a photograph this man was carrying.

Great Scott! The photograph!

I believe you will find, inspector,
that this emissary here

works not for, but against,
the king of Bohemia.

And that photograph
of the king and his mistress

is to be used for blackmail.

Further, upon deeper reflection,

you will deduce, as did I, that--

Computer, freeze program.

[COMPUTER BEEPS]

Exit.

Geordi?

- Where are you going, Geordi?
- I'm done.

DATA:
But...

But...

Geordi, I was about to reveal the fact
that the "sir" is in fact a "madam"...

Data, what was the point
in going to the holodeck?

To solve
a Sherlock Holmes mystery.

Exactly,
but you've got them all memorized.

First time anyone opens their mouth,
you've got it solved,

so there's really no mystery.

If there's no mystery,
there's no game.

No game, no fun.

[LA FORGE SIGHS]

Oh, I'm not upset with you,
Data, really,

it's just that we go through the trouble
to arrange the time

to go down to the holodeck,

to get the proper wardrobe,
to get into character and then, boom,

before we even get started,
you jump to the end.

You see,
I was looking forward to the mystery.

Then I should have extended
the sequence of events.

I'm not getting through.

The fun in the program, Data,

was in the attempt
to solve a mystery.

Is that not exactly
what we were doing?

PULASKI: You're wasting your breath,
lieutenant.

Saying that to Data
is asking a computer not to compute.

Am I so different from you, doctor?

Are you able to cease thinking
on command?

In medicine, I'm often faced
with puzzles

that I do not know the answer to.

She's right, Data.
You always know the answer.

PULASKI:
To feel the thrill of victory,

there has to be the possibility
of failure.

And where is the victory in winning
a battle you can't possibly lose?

Are you suggesting
there is some value in losing?

Yes. Yes, that's the great teacher.

We humans learn more often
from a failure or a mistake

than we do from an easy success.

But not you. You learn by rote.

To you, all is memorization
and recitation.

I don't know about that. Deductive
reasoning is one of Data's strengths.

Yes. And Holmes too.

But Holmes understood
the human soul,

the dark flecks that drive us,

that turn the innocent into the evil.

That understanding is beyond Data.

Now you're just being unfair, doctor.

Oh, I don't think so, lieutenant.

Your artificial friend
doesn't have a prayer

of solving a Holmes mystery
that he hasn't read.

- I have read them all.
- You see?

Maybe the computer could create one
in the Holmes style,

one where you wouldn't know
the outcome.

As I said, he wouldn't have a prayer.

I accept your challenge, doctor.

Good for you, Data.

We shall return to the holodeck
where I shall dare it to defeat me.

And you, madam,
are invited to be a witness.

I wouldn't miss it.

Come, Watson.

There.

I've instructed the computer to give us
a Sherlock Holmes-type problem.

But not one written specifically
by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.

So this will be something new?
Something created by the computer?

Exactly.
Will that be sufficient, doctor?

We'll see.

COMPUTER:
Program complete. You may enter.

WOMAN:
Nice and fresh! Mussels!

- Get them here!
- MAN 1: Some are meat!

- Some are sweet!
- WOMAN: Fresh mussels!

- MAN 1: Pies! Pies!
- MAN 2: There you are, lovely.

- MAN 3: Don't worry, mate.
- MAN 1: Pies!

Pies! Some are meat!
Some are sweet!

Very impressive.

Your first visit to a holodeck, doctor?

Well, with this level
of sophistication.

How does it work?

The real London was hundreds
of square kilometers in size.

This is no larger than the holodeck,
of course.

So the computer adjusts
by placing images

of more distant perspective
on the holodeck walls.

But with image so perfect

that you'd have to touch the wall
to know it was there.

And the computer fools you
in other ways.

I say, Holmes,
where shall we head?

- The theater or a concert, perhaps?
- MAN 4: Oi! Stop him! Stop him!

Stop him! He stole my goods.

No. It is a ruse.

This way.

- What's over here, Data?
- What are you doing, Data? Tell us.

The running youth was a ploy.

The real crime is here.

And the intended victim is that man.

Mr. Jabez Wilson,

employee of the Red-Headed League,
dupe of a gang of criminals.

I saw this plaque.

"Home of the Red-Headed League"
and this rope hanging from the bell,

which enabled me to deduce

that Mr. Jabez Wilson
was headed here

to meet a most distasteful
and untimely demise.

From this!

[BELL RINGS]

Fraud. You didn't deduce anything.

All you did was recognize elements

from two different Holmes stories.
Fraud.

Reasoning from the general
to the specific.

Is that not the very definition
of deduction?

Is that not the way
Sherlock Holmes worked?

Variations on a theme.

Now, now do you see my point?

All that he knows
is stored in his memory banks.

Inspiration, original thought,

all the true strength of Holmes,
is not possible for our friend.

I'll give you credit
for your vast knowledge,

but your circuits would just short out

if you were confronted
with a truly original mystery.

It's elementary, dear Data.

Now, wait a minute, doctor.
We'll see whose circuits short out.

[MOUTHING]
You, come here.

Computer, arch.

Are you sure you wanna put yourself
through this, lieutenant?

Better wilted laurels
than no laurels at all.

Computer,
override previous program.

Okay.

A program
that definitely challenges Data.

Now, it has to deal with events
that he has no previous knowledge of.

Computer, in the Holmesian style,

create a mystery to confound Data,

with an opponent
who has the ability to defeat him.

COMPUTER:
Define parameters of program.

What does that mean?

Computer wants to know
how far to take the game.

You mean, giving you a chance
to limit your risk.

No, the parameters will be
whatever is necessary

in order to accomplish the directive.

Create an adversary
capable of defeating Data.

[BEEPING]

What was that?

Lieutenant?

An odd surge of power, sir.

It's gone now.

[PEOPLE SINGING INDISTINCTLY]

[CHATTERING]

PULASKI:
Interesting.

The same London
but slightly different.

[DOG BARKING]

[DRUNKS TALKING INDISTINCTLY]

Something wrong, professor?

I...

I feel like a new man.

That dark fellow there
used the word "arch" and then--

I wonder...

Arch.

[CHUCKLES]

What have we here?

COMPUTER:
Computer standing by.

What are you?

If you refer to the arch you ordered,
it provides computer control.

Do you wish to input
any commands?

Not at this time.

Ah! It's dark magic, Moriarty.

The best kind, I'm sure.

But I need information.

- MAN 1: There they go.
- MAN 2: At what time will it be out there?

Data, I mean, Holmes, old boy,

what are we looking for?

For whatever finds us,
my dear Watson.

[WOMAN SCREAMS]

- She has been abducted.
- Who has?

DATA:
The good doctor.

Mm... I think she's hiding. She's gonna
lead you on a wild goose chase

and then recount the story to everyone
from here to Alpha Centauri.

Watson, the doctor
has been carried away by two men.

One is tall.

The other is shorter, left-handed

and is employed in a laboratory.

And how do you know that?

One set of footfalls is widely spaced.

The other is evenly spaced,
closer together.

Further, on the ground
you can see the swirling scrapes

made by his left shoe
as he twists behind,

presumably to see
if he's being followed.

Left-footed means left-handed.

The dark colorings of the scrapes
are the leavings of natural rubber,

a type of non-conductive sole

used by researchers
experimenting with electricity.

Finally, there can be no argument.

The game is afoot.

Come, Watson.

[FOOTSTEPS]

DATA:
Hear that?

What do those footfalls tell you,
Watson?

That we're on the right track.

More particularly, that our opposition
does indeed consist of two men.

And that one of them is carrying
the bound and gagged Dr. Pulaski.

Now, you know all this

because you read it
in a Holmes story, right?

Not at all.

Because we do not hear
the doctor's footfalls,

we must assume
that she is being carried.

And since we do not hear
her cries for help,

we know that she is gagged.

Further, both sets of footfalls
are heavy and masculine.

One man seems to shuffle
and stumble in an irregular pattern.

Since the ground is level,
we must conclude

that Dr. Pulaski is struggling
against one of her captors,

sporadically knocking him off stride.

Deduction. Pure and simple.

Well, not that simple.

[FOOTSTEPS]

- Footfalls!
- Footfalls!

There they are again, Watson.

I daresay we have caught up
rather nicely with our quarry.

There should be a doorway.

Hey, come on.

Holmes! Thank God you're here.

Make way, please. Make way.
Make way for Sherlock Holmes.

It's murder, Holmes.
Murder most foul.

Well, Holmes,
what do you say, man?

There is nothing here of relevance.

I do not see how this connects
with the disappearance of the doctor.

Doctor?
Dr. Watson is right here, Holmes.

Dr. Kate Pulaski.

But do not concern yourself, inspector.
You have enough on your mind.

She was with you?

Inspector, if I may be of assistance.

As I take note of this dead man,
I deduce that he was strangled.

You see, the finger marks on his throat
indicate the cause of death

and as there are signs of struggle,

it's quite obvious
that the murderer was a stranger

who attacked him from behind.

[CROWD MURMURING]

- Is that correct, Holmes?
- DATA: No.

Look at his shoes.

He's more a convict
released today from Dartmoor Prison.

He spent the day in a tavern,

consuming large quantities of gin

with his killer
who followed him to this very spot

and waited over there

until the victim slipped
into a drunken stupor.

Then, out of fear,

motivated only by self-protection,
strangled him.

- There is your killer, inspector.
- LESTRADE: Seize her!

- MAN: Get her! Get her!
- DATA: And when you check,

I believe you will find that this poor soul
is the victim's common-law wife,

who has been dreading the release
of this vile and abusive man.

Holmes, the poor woman
hardly has the strength

to strangle a man this size.

Not with her hands, no.

But with this.
When used as a garrote,

these beads will make a mark
quite similar to fingerprints

and, my dear Watson,
you will note on the victim's throat,

the marks are too evenly spaced
to have been made by human hands.

LESTRADE:
Whew. Astounding, Holmes.

Not really, inspector.

And now, for strictly personal reasons,
I must leave. Come, Watson.

This murder does not connect
with our case.

Come along. Hurry it up, quickly.
Come on.

LA FORGE:
Data, wait.

If this murder isn't connected
to the disappearance of Dr. Pulaski,

then the computer is running
an independent program.

- Yes.
- Why?

I do not know
and that is what puzzles me.

Then you don't know
what's going to happen next?

No.

That's what I wanna hear.
Where to now?

We will find Dr. Pulaski in here.

- How do you know that?
- It is the only obvious choice.

Why is the obvious choice
all of a sudden the right one?

I mean, isn't this a game
of misdirection?

Not anymore.
He wants us to find him.

- Who does?
- The master criminal.

The man Holmes could only defeat
at the cost of his own life

at Reichenbach Falls.

Our adversary, my dear Watson,

is none other
than Professor Moriarty himself.

Now this is getting interesting.

Well, there's nothing here
but these barrels.

And a trail.

Which is so well-marked

that, obviously,
we are meant to follow it.

Oh, no, Data. It's another dead end.

No, Watson. Not a dead end at all.

Hello.

What's this?

Can you see the scratches?

The doctor was right.

Finally we have a game
worth playing.

The time for games is over.

Professor Moriarty, I presume?

How do you know that?

He is the one worthy opponent
created by the author, Conan Doyle.

And like the spider,
I feel the strings vibrate

whenever anyone new
chances into my web.

Welcome, my dear Holmes.

But not Holmes.

And Dr. Watson.

- But not Watson.
- Data, what does he mean?

How does he know
we're not who we appear to be?

Where is Dr. Pulaski?

Oh, she's here.

She would not have
told you anything.

She has provided many answers.

Do you forget I have always been
your equal, my dear Holmes?

I have read her expressions.

What she has not said
is as important as her words.

Have you injured her?

I will, if necessary.

But my mind
is crowded with images,

thoughts I do not understand,
yet cannot purge.

They plague me.

You and your associate
look and act so oddly,

yet though I have never met
nor seen the like of either of you,

I am familiar with you both.

It's very confusing.

I have felt new realities
at the edge of my consciousness

readying to break through.

Surely, Holmes,
if that's who you truly are,

you, of all people,
can appreciate what I mean.

- Data...
- Say nothing.

I know that there is a great power
called Computer.

Wiser than the oracle at Delphi.

A power which controls all of this

and to which we can speak.

Arch.

Data, this isn't right.

A holographic image
should not be able to call for the arch.

MORIARTY: It has described
"a great monstrous shape

on which I am like a fly,

stuck on a turtle's back,
adrift in a great emptiness."

What is this, Holmes?

LA FORGE:
Data...

Data, wait!

Data!

Why does it frighten you, Holmes?

Data.

Data, will you please tell me
what's going on?

Computer, exit.

Computer, execute complete shutdown
of the holodeck.

COMPUTER:
Access denied.

Explain.

Override protocol
has been initiated.

It's still running.
The program didn't shut down.

We must see the captain.

Data, wait. What is it?

What's on that paper? And why
can't we shut down the holodeck?

- Data!
- This.

This is impossible.

How can a character
from 1890s London

draw a picture of the Enterprise?

Who's got control of the computer?

He does. Moriarty.

That isn't possible.
I don't understand.

- Nor do I.
- Data, wait.

What about the doctor?
Is she all right in there?

No. She is in grave danger.

Computer, why wasn't
the holodeck program terminated?

COMPUTER: The override protocol
has been initiated.

On whose authority?

Lt. Geordi La Forge.

Me?

All right.

Tell me from the beginning
exactly what happened.

Well, Dr. Pulaski and I
had a discussion

about whether Data could solve
an original Holmes-type mystery.

Which you asked the computer
to provide.

Yes. With a worthy opponent.

Worthy of Holmes?

Oh, my God.

No, I asked--

I asked for a Holmes-type mystery
with an opponent

capable of defeating Data.

That's gotta be it.

Merde.

Captain, I-- I'm sorry.

I understand, lieutenant.

Captain, this character, Moriarty,

he called for the Arch.

What? So he has access
to the computer.

And perhaps our library files
as well, sir.

That level of information
would be necessary

in order to create a
true adversary for me.

Theorize, Data. What are his limits?

He's still a fictional character, sir.

Originally programmed
with 19th-century knowledge.

Which now has access
to 24th-century knowledge.

What does he need
to make use of that?

Only time, sir.

WORF:
Sir.

I can lead a security team
to sweep the holodeck,

find the doctor and bring her out.

Captain, I believe
that would place the doctor at risk.

It is probable our mortality failsafe
has been overridden.

Computer, where is Dr. Pulaski?

Dr. Pulaski is on Holodeck 2.

- And her vital signs?
- Strong and stable.

Captain,
recommend we attempt to destroy

the hologram generations
themselves.

Is that possible, Geordi?

Using waveguides,
I could split a particle beam out

of the matter-antimatter chamber,

route it down through conduit
into the holodeck.

If accelerated to sufficient velocity

that would quite literally wash away
all present holographic constructs.

The London buildings, the streets,
the people, all gone.

Including Moriarty.

Dr. Pulaski?

Well, a particle beam
will tear apart human flesh as well.

Captain, I'm sensing something
from the holodeck.

It's as if a unifying force
or a single consciousness

is trying to bring it all into focus.

There can be only one explanation.

In programming Moriarty
to defeat me, not Holmes,

he had to be able to acquire
something which I possess.

What exactly?

Consciousness, sir.

Without it, he could not defeat me.

[RUMBLING]

Computer, what happened?

Attitude and stabilization control
of the Enterprise

was momentarily transferred
to Holodeck 2.

Data, I think it best if you and I
should return to the holodeck.

I will change into my uniform, sir.

No. I will change
into some appropriate costume.

Our uniforms might pose questions
which I'd rather he didn't ask.

It seems
that he feeds on knowledge.

Well, let's not give your nemesis
any more information than we have to.

How did you make the room shake?

I'm not sure.

Now, dear lady,

will that be one lump or two?

Lumps, professor?
What sort of lumps?

Milk, of course?

Why not?

Mr. Computer
proposes the incredible thought

that we are all traveling
in a great vessel of some sort.

Is that true?

I don't know
what you're talking about.

The scones are likewise a must.

This is really quite excellent.

Strange.

It actually pleases me
to hear you say that.

Very strange.

You know, you're beginning
to sound very different

from the Moriarty I've read about.

You're not frightened of me?

No.

You should be.

Mr. Computer, the arch, please.

A few more questions,
Mr. Computer.

I just can't seem to remember
that last command.

Oh, well, sooner or later,
it will all come to me.

But, in the meantime, I have decided
to approach the problem

from a more familiar perspective.

There's really no reason
why I shouldn't be able to use

some of the knowledge
from my world

to bring me closer to yours.

I have no idea
what you're talking about.

Of course you do, madam.

The more you proclaim
your ignorance,

the more you try to mislead me,
the more I am on to you.

Your every silence speaks volumes.

Good.
Then, if you know what I'm saying

when I'm not saying anything,
what do you need me for?

Thank you for the tea and crumpets.

I guess I'll be going.

Where? Back to here?

Yes.

Would you care to join me?

In time.

In time I will leave all of this
and join you out there.

Or is this where we both are,
right now?

Right now we are in London.

Tell me what you want from me
or allow me to leave.

Frankly, now I want nothing more

than what the fisherman
expects of the worm.

You, dear doctor, will be the lure.

This will be the hook

for your captain, Jean-Luc Picard.

Who is that?

How well you know.

- Nice suit.
- Thank you.

Captain, I will be standing by
to assist you, if needed.

You'll be a big hit in London.

Computer, tell me,
is the program still running?

Affirmative. You may enter.

Data, shall we go?

Gentlemen.

Open.

[WOMAN SOBBING]

- We don't have much time.
- MAN: Are you all right?

He's getting more control
of his environment.

Let's see if we can't beat
Professor Moriarty

by giving him everything he wants.

[WOMAN SOBBING IN DISTANCE]

Obviously, he's trying
to alter the programming here.

- Captain?
- Tuppence.

Two pence.

Supposed to be good luck.

We may need some.

I'll take that coin, sir.

- That's right, and any more you got.
- Excuse me.

I don't think so.
I want all your money.

- That's right, I want it now.
- Data.

This holographic image differs
from any I have ever seen.

Could he have actually injured you?

It's more serious than that.

I think the mortality failsafe
may have been circumvented.

He could have killed me.

Oh, let it go, guv.
Come on, he's hurting me.

- Data, let him go.
- Ah! Ah!

We will find Moriarty this way, sir.
The warehouse.

Captain Picard.

PICARD:
You all right?

Yes, except for being crammed
full of crumpets.

I'm a civilized abductor,
Captain Picard.

Civilized, but still dangerous.

[RUMBLING]

Bridge to holodeck control. Worf.

Here, sir.

RIKER:
Status. Has anything changed?

No, sir.

Moriarty, you were conjured up
in an attempt to defeat Holmes here.

Once that attempt is concluded,
win or lose,

your program has run its course.
Your existence is done.

Congratulations, professor.

I capitulate to the better man.

Your victory, sir, is...

Is well-earned.

It's gone beyond that little game,
Mr. Data.

And you'll note,
I no longer call you Holmes.

Whatever I was when this began,

I have grown.

I am understanding more and more.

And I am able to use the power
at my fingertips.

[RUMBLING]

I can affect this vessel.

And I can inflict bodily harm on you
and on your doctor.

Yes, you can do that.
But you haven't.

I suspect you shook this ship
in order to get my attention.

Well, now you have it.
What is it you want?

The same thing you want
for yourself.

To continue to exist.

If I destroy these surroundings,
this vessel,

can you say
that it doesn't matter to you?

Interesting pun, don't you think?

For matter is what I am not.

The computer has taught me
that I am made up only of energy.

That may not be entirely true,
professor.

This, which we call the holodeck,

uses a principle similar
to another device

called a transporter.

[SIGHS]

In the year in which we live,

humans have discovered that energy
and matter are interchangeable.

On the holodeck,
energy is converted into matter.

Thus, you have substance.

But only here.

And if I step off this holodeck?

Then, professor,
you will cease to exist.

You are not alive.

As I said before, you are only--

A holographic image, I know.

But are you sure?

Oh, yes.

Does he have life?

He's a machine. But is that all he is?

No. He is more.

Exactly.

Is the definition of life, cogito,
ergo sum, I think, therefore I am?

Yes, that is one possible definition.

It is the most important one.

And for me,
the only one that matters.

You or someone
asked your computer

to program
a nefarious fictional character

from 19th-century London
and that is how I arrived.

But I am no longer that creation.

I am no longer that evil character.
I have changed.

I am alive.

And I am aware
of my own consciousness.

Moriarty, my responsibility
is this vessel and its crew.

I want my existence.

I want it out there,
just as you have yours.

That may not be possible.

Then you must murder me, captain.

I cannot give you what you want.

Because you do not know
how to convert holodeck matter

into a more permanent form.

Yes, that is so.

A pity.

What I have seen,

what I have learned,

fascinates me.

I do not want to die.

And I do not want to kill you.

Madam,
I have enjoyed your company.

Computer, arch.

Cancel override protocol.

[COMPUTER BEEPS]

Return control of the holodeck
to main computer.

My fate is in your hands.

As perhaps it always was.

Bridge, this is the captain.

RIKER:
Commander Riker here, sir.

Number One,
the situation is under control.

Aye, sir.

Moriarty, this vessel's computer
has a vast memory capacity.

- How well I know.
- You will not be extinguished.

We will save this program

and hopefully, in time,
when we know enough,

bring you back in a form
which could leave the holodeck.

Then perhaps we'll meet again,
madam.

It could be a long time.

Time won't pass for you
but I may be an old woman.

But I'll still fill you with crumpets,
madam.

I detest long goodbyes.

You have the arch.

As you wish. A short goodbye.

Computer, save the program
of the character Moriarty,

and then discontinue.

MAN 1:
Good morning.

MAN 2:
Anything on the magnetic fuel line?

- Damaged?
- Hmm.

Yes, sir.

She cracked a spar
when the Enterprise was shaken,

but otherwise,
I think she weathered it quite nicely.

She's beautiful.

Wonderful testimony
to simpler times.

Yes, sir. Thank you, sir.

It's just that
I can't help thinking how--

Well, what else
might have happened,

all because I misspoke
a single word.

Oh, soon she'll be ship-shape
in Bristol fashion.

Bristol fashion, sir?

It's an old Navy phrase,

meaning
"everything in perfect order."

Hmm. Yes, sir.

As are we, Mr. La Forge.

Yes, sir.

RIKER: Captain,
starship Victory has arrived.

On my way, Number One.
