1
00:00:24,729 --> 00:00:27,011
Previously on
Strange New Worlds...
2
00:00:27,036 --> 00:00:29,463
All I ever wanted since
I first saw the stars
3
00:00:29,488 --> 00:00:31,185
was to join Starfleet.
4
00:00:31,210 --> 00:00:33,696
I'm an Illyrian. I've
committed a Federation offense.
5
00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:36,314
If you shelter me they
could come after you, too.
6
00:00:36,339 --> 00:00:37,745
I welcome that discussion.
7
00:00:37,770 --> 00:00:39,358
I'm arresting
Commander Una Chin-Riley
8
00:00:39,382 --> 00:00:41,064
for violations of
our anti-genetic
9
00:00:41,089 --> 00:00:42,229
modification directive.
10
00:00:42,254 --> 00:00:43,865
I didn't ask for this job.
11
00:00:43,890 --> 00:00:46,052
- You need a lawyer.
- She won't respond.
12
00:00:46,077 --> 00:00:47,419
She won't take my calls either.
13
00:00:47,444 --> 00:00:48,924
This is not a plum case.
14
00:00:48,949 --> 00:00:50,789
I'm gonna talk to her
myself, face-to-face.
15
00:00:50,814 --> 00:00:52,322
Just hang in there, Number One.
16
00:00:52,347 --> 00:00:54,436
That's an order. Pike out.
17
00:00:59,485 --> 00:01:01,028
She needs a hospital.
18
00:01:01,052 --> 00:01:02,725
That
is out of the question.
19
00:01:02,749 --> 00:01:05,273
- Her leg isn't healing.
- It will.
20
00:01:05,317 --> 00:01:07,754
It's going
to get infected.
21
00:01:07,798 --> 00:01:09,645
If we go into the
hospital, they might see her
22
00:01:09,669 --> 00:01:12,628
fighting infection. They'll
run tests to find out.
23
00:01:12,672 --> 00:01:14,761
- Mom?
- I know, baby.
24
00:01:14,805 --> 00:01:17,545
I know it hurts.
25
00:01:17,590 --> 00:01:19,244
You're gonna be okay.
26
00:01:19,269 --> 00:01:21,576
I promise.
27
00:01:21,601 --> 00:01:24,118
It needs to get set
or it won't heal.
28
00:01:24,162 --> 00:01:25,511
Her system can't handle it.
29
00:01:25,554 --> 00:01:28,035
She is a child.
She needs a doctor.
30
00:01:28,079 --> 00:01:31,517
Look, if we go to the
hospital now, they'll see,
31
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:33,301
and we'll lose everything.
32
00:01:33,345 --> 00:01:35,183
Her life will be
ruined, all of ours.
33
00:01:35,643 --> 00:01:38,829
We'll figure this
out. She'll be okay.
34
00:01:38,854 --> 00:01:41,727
Una will be okay.
35
00:01:42,789 --> 00:01:44,791
Starfleet would
like to offer a deal.
36
00:01:44,816 --> 00:01:47,522
Plead guilty to knowingly
submitting false information
37
00:01:47,547 --> 00:01:49,288
to Starfleet by
failing to disclose
38
00:01:49,313 --> 00:01:51,533
your genetic
modification status,
39
00:01:51,755 --> 00:01:53,844
and we'll accept
dishonorable dismissal.
40
00:01:53,887 --> 00:01:56,150
No prison time.
41
00:01:56,194 --> 00:01:58,586
Dishonorable dismissal?
42
00:01:58,611 --> 00:02:01,783
No exile. You'll still be
a free Federation citizen.
43
00:02:01,808 --> 00:02:03,431
Starfleet is willing
to seal your records
44
00:02:03,456 --> 00:02:04,610
and look the other way.
45
00:02:04,635 --> 00:02:06,420
They want to cover
their mistake.
46
00:02:06,445 --> 00:02:08,746
They are grateful
for your service.
47
00:02:08,771 --> 00:02:10,904
Una, you don't want
to drag this out.
48
00:02:10,948 --> 00:02:12,950
And you don't want
others to get dragged in.
49
00:02:12,993 --> 00:02:15,138
It's a fair deal.
50
00:02:15,163 --> 00:02:16,996
It's a good deal,
given the evidence.
51
00:02:17,041 --> 00:02:19,882
She's right. We
won't get better.
52
00:02:19,907 --> 00:02:21,576
This charge can carry
two years imprisonment
53
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:23,777
at the minimum.
54
00:02:23,917 --> 00:02:27,399
Don't you think we should
sidebar this conversation?
55
00:02:28,493 --> 00:02:29,624
That's a good idea.
56
00:02:29,894 --> 00:02:31,316
Take some time,
57
00:02:31,359 --> 00:02:32,839
talk it over with your counsel.
58
00:02:32,864 --> 00:02:35,953
How can he counsel me
when he works for you?
59
00:02:44,590 --> 00:02:48,337
Captain's personal
log, star date 2393.8.
60
00:02:48,362 --> 00:02:50,486
I have traveled to
the Vaultera Nebula
61
00:02:50,511 --> 00:02:52,878
to find legal help
for my first officer.
62
00:02:52,903 --> 00:02:56,297
The atmosphere here is not
suitable for human life.
63
00:02:56,341 --> 00:02:59,779
The locals, however,
have adapted.
64
00:02:59,804 --> 00:03:02,241
Yes, he's still here.
65
00:03:02,266 --> 00:03:04,442
Yes, I told him.
66
00:03:04,523 --> 00:03:07,265
No, he did not.
67
00:03:07,308 --> 00:03:09,202
Okay.
68
00:03:11,225 --> 00:03:14,794
- Counselor Ketoul still can't see you today.
- I can wait.
69
00:03:14,838 --> 00:03:16,535
I told you she's booked.
70
00:03:16,578 --> 00:03:20,060
She has a deposition,
then an arraignment.
71
00:03:20,104 --> 00:03:21,409
I can wait.
72
00:03:26,414 --> 00:03:29,026
I don't think that you can.
73
00:03:30,027 --> 00:03:31,158
Try me.
74
00:03:42,430 --> 00:03:44,606
Fine,
fine, fine. Okay!
75
00:03:44,650 --> 00:03:47,347
Ugh!
76
00:03:49,887 --> 00:03:52,720
You can take off your mask, Mr. Pike.
77
00:03:52,745 --> 00:03:54,844
The air is safe for you now.
78
00:03:58,536 --> 00:03:59,929
I knew you were stubborn,
79
00:03:59,954 --> 00:04:01,772
I just didn't think
you were stupid.
80
00:04:01,797 --> 00:04:04,475
This planet is
inhospitable to all but...
81
00:04:04,500 --> 00:04:05,980
Except to Illyrians.
82
00:04:06,193 --> 00:04:10,178
Genetically engineered
to survive in this...
83
00:04:10,203 --> 00:04:11,690
charming environment.
84
00:04:11,715 --> 00:04:13,875
You would think that would
allow us a measure of privacy.
85
00:04:13,899 --> 00:04:15,278
Should have returned my calls.
86
00:04:15,303 --> 00:04:16,957
And you should learn
to take a hint.
87
00:04:16,982 --> 00:04:19,224
Or do they not teach reading
the room at the Academy?
88
00:04:19,249 --> 00:04:20,585
Been a while since I
was at the Academy,
89
00:04:20,609 --> 00:04:22,655
so I don't recall.
90
00:04:25,385 --> 00:04:26,865
Una needs your help.
91
00:04:26,890 --> 00:04:28,974
Starfleet Command found
out that she's Illyrian.
92
00:04:28,999 --> 00:04:31,262
It was only a matter of
time before she was outed.
93
00:04:31,305 --> 00:04:34,352
Starfleet will never let an
Illyrian serve. Not openly.
94
00:04:34,395 --> 00:04:37,746
But that is not my
problem, Mr. Pike.
95
00:04:37,790 --> 00:04:40,040
Now, I really do
have a busy day.
96
00:04:40,065 --> 00:04:41,893
Neera.
97
00:04:41,918 --> 00:04:43,798
I don't know what
happened between you two,
98
00:04:43,823 --> 00:04:45,486
but she's your friend.
99
00:04:45,511 --> 00:04:48,688
Una Chin-Riley is not my
friend, and neither are you.
100
00:04:48,713 --> 00:04:51,847
- Please leave.
- I know why you feel the way you do about Starfleet,
101
00:04:51,872 --> 00:04:53,699
the Federation, all of us.
102
00:04:53,724 --> 00:04:54,976
I saw some things.
103
00:04:55,001 --> 00:04:57,655
On a research mission to an
abandoned Illyrian colony,
104
00:04:57,679 --> 00:05:01,553
we found out that it
wasn't so... abandoned.
105
00:05:01,596 --> 00:05:03,360
I saw what can
happen to Illyrians
106
00:05:03,385 --> 00:05:05,073
who reverse their
genetic modification
107
00:05:05,098 --> 00:05:08,138
just so the Federation
will accept them.
108
00:05:09,213 --> 00:05:11,476
Old fears can be
hard to let go of,
109
00:05:11,519 --> 00:05:15,088
but we were wrong about
Illyrians. All of us.
110
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:19,005
I was wrong.
111
00:05:19,049 --> 00:05:22,139
Congratulations. You
discovered empathy.
112
00:05:22,182 --> 00:05:25,229
Let me know when the rest of
your Federation catches up.
113
00:05:27,971 --> 00:05:29,973
They're going to dismiss her.
114
00:05:30,791 --> 00:05:33,160
Everything she's strived
for, her life's work,
115
00:05:33,185 --> 00:05:34,795
her entire career.
116
00:05:34,838 --> 00:05:37,014
Everything that
she's contributed.
117
00:05:37,039 --> 00:05:40,434
Dishonorable dismissal
is getting off easy.
118
00:05:40,461 --> 00:05:43,024
Starfleet race
laws are draconian.
119
00:05:43,049 --> 00:05:45,182
She's lucky she isn't getting
charged with sedition.
120
00:05:47,164 --> 00:05:50,906
Yes, Mr. Pike, I am
familiar with her case.
121
00:05:50,950 --> 00:05:53,178
The proceedings are sealed.
122
00:05:53,203 --> 00:05:54,901
I make it my business
to know what happens
123
00:05:54,926 --> 00:05:56,583
behind closed doors.
124
00:05:56,608 --> 00:05:59,350
Many of my clients'
lives depend on it.
125
00:05:59,393 --> 00:06:02,831
Now, if that will be all.
126
00:06:07,140 --> 00:06:08,881
How's that working out for you?
127
00:06:08,924 --> 00:06:11,405
- The cases against the Federation.
- Excuse me?
128
00:06:11,449 --> 00:06:13,233
See, I do my homework, too.
129
00:06:13,277 --> 00:06:15,325
Ten cases thrown
out or overturned
130
00:06:15,350 --> 00:06:17,430
in two years for
insufficient evidence?
131
00:06:17,455 --> 00:06:19,805
Good cases, too, as
far as I can tell.
132
00:06:21,198 --> 00:06:22,850
Take this case.
133
00:06:22,895 --> 00:06:25,419
If you win, half the
quadrant will know it.
134
00:06:25,463 --> 00:06:27,548
And it'll bring your other
cases more attention.
135
00:06:27,573 --> 00:06:29,270
Maybe the attention
that they deserve.
136
00:06:29,313 --> 00:06:31,551
Are you attempting to
bribe me, Mr. Pike?
137
00:06:31,576 --> 00:06:33,620
I'm trying to convince you.
138
00:06:34,907 --> 00:06:36,848
I'm trying to save
an old friend.
139
00:06:36,879 --> 00:06:38,177
And maybe do some good here.
140
00:06:38,215 --> 00:06:39,887
Are you? Or are you gonna
141
00:06:39,912 --> 00:06:41,324
let whatever happened
between you and Una
142
00:06:41,348 --> 00:06:43,350
get in the way of
your life's work?
143
00:06:44,569 --> 00:06:47,093
Just take a look
at the case file.
144
00:06:47,137 --> 00:06:49,139
You?
145
00:06:49,182 --> 00:06:51,184
I doubt you'd even
break a sweat.
146
00:06:52,185 --> 00:06:54,144
You're a piece of work, Pike.
147
00:06:54,476 --> 00:06:56,320
Yeah.
148
00:06:56,345 --> 00:06:58,426
But you still haven't said no.
149
00:07:05,981 --> 00:07:08,245
Visitor.
150
00:07:08,288 --> 00:07:09,289
Neera!
151
00:07:09,333 --> 00:07:11,683
I had to see it for myself.
152
00:07:11,726 --> 00:07:13,999
I said this would happen.
153
00:07:14,294 --> 00:07:16,383
After 25 years, the
first thing you say to me
154
00:07:16,427 --> 00:07:17,655
is "I told you so"?
155
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:19,633
I didn't think you'd...
156
00:07:19,658 --> 00:07:21,939
I'm not here for a reunion.
157
00:07:22,475 --> 00:07:24,216
Tell me the story of the story.
158
00:07:24,241 --> 00:07:25,894
Short version, your words.
159
00:07:30,180 --> 00:07:32,834
Until two months ago,
my record with Starfleet
160
00:07:32,878 --> 00:07:33,880
was spotless.
161
00:07:33,905 --> 00:07:35,378
When they didn't know,
they didn't care.
162
00:07:35,402 --> 00:07:36,795
The only thing that's changed
163
00:07:36,820 --> 00:07:38,735
is that they know the truth.
164
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:40,718
And that you lied about it.
165
00:07:42,038 --> 00:07:43,865
Must be nice.
166
00:07:44,487 --> 00:07:45,405
What's that?
167
00:07:45,456 --> 00:07:48,051
It's just, some Illyrians
have modifications
168
00:07:48,076 --> 00:07:51,427
they can't hide, and
some of us refuse to.
169
00:07:51,551 --> 00:07:52,900
Neera, I should have...
170
00:07:52,925 --> 00:07:55,014
Please proceed, Commander.
171
00:07:56,322 --> 00:07:58,019
So then somebody turned me in,
172
00:07:58,044 --> 00:08:00,555
and now Starfleet is
asking me to hide again,
173
00:08:00,580 --> 00:08:02,012
so that no one has to know
174
00:08:02,037 --> 00:08:04,823
an Illyrian climbed
the ranks of Starfleet.
175
00:08:04,848 --> 00:08:07,547
It'll be like it never happened.
176
00:08:07,608 --> 00:08:10,176
- Like I never happened.
- So?
177
00:08:10,201 --> 00:08:12,203
You had your playtime,
acting like one of them.
178
00:08:12,228 --> 00:08:16,232
Accept your dismissal, take
your licks and go home.
179
00:08:16,259 --> 00:08:17,434
No.
180
00:08:17,459 --> 00:08:18,939
Why not?
181
00:08:18,964 --> 00:08:21,924
Because I shouldn't
have to hide anymore.
182
00:08:21,984 --> 00:08:23,377
None of us should.
183
00:08:23,494 --> 00:08:25,713
I know I should
have done better.
184
00:08:25,757 --> 00:08:27,975
I didn't stand up
when I should have.
185
00:08:28,020 --> 00:08:30,065
I'm standing up now.
186
00:08:31,458 --> 00:08:34,113
I'll tell opposing counsel
their deal is rejected.
187
00:08:34,157 --> 00:08:35,767
Thank you.
188
00:08:35,810 --> 00:08:38,371
Don't. I'm not
doing this for you,
189
00:08:38,396 --> 00:08:40,050
I'm doing this for me.
190
00:08:40,075 --> 00:08:42,973
And for all the Illyrians
who can't or just won't
191
00:08:42,998 --> 00:08:46,227
pretend to not be who
they really are...
192
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:48,134
so they can run
away to Starfleet.
193
00:08:55,482 --> 00:08:56,962
Una rejected my deal.
194
00:08:56,987 --> 00:08:58,206
Good.
195
00:08:59,573 --> 00:09:02,402
Do you know how hard it was
to get that deal approved?
196
00:09:02,446 --> 00:09:03,534
I called in every favor.
197
00:09:03,577 --> 00:09:04,883
And do you think that was easy?
198
00:09:04,926 --> 00:09:06,206
Because I can tell
you it was not.
199
00:09:06,230 --> 00:09:07,215
Maybe you should have
thought about that
200
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:08,232
before arresting her.
201
00:09:08,257 --> 00:09:10,005
Don't be
a child, Chris.
202
00:09:10,030 --> 00:09:11,478
I know you think I betrayed you.
203
00:09:11,503 --> 00:09:13,485
Una should be on my bridge
right now doing her job,
204
00:09:13,509 --> 00:09:15,130
not sitting in some jail cell.
205
00:09:15,155 --> 00:09:18,334
I don't write the code,
and my job... our job...
206
00:09:18,359 --> 00:09:19,447
Oh, our job.
207
00:09:19,472 --> 00:09:21,247
Is to uphold it, regardless.
208
00:09:21,291 --> 00:09:22,949
Una broke the law.
209
00:09:22,974 --> 00:09:25,107
And what if the law is wrong?
210
00:09:30,260 --> 00:09:32,784
Chris, I didn't ask to
be put on this case.
211
00:09:32,867 --> 00:09:35,348
If you stop and
look for one second,
212
00:09:35,392 --> 00:09:37,016
you'll see I've done
everything in my power
213
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:38,564
to help Una.
214
00:09:38,589 --> 00:09:40,765
That plea deal
was her best shot.
215
00:09:40,812 --> 00:09:42,466
And now that she's
turned it down,
216
00:09:42,491 --> 00:09:44,102
my boss, the judge
advocate general,
217
00:09:44,127 --> 00:09:45,389
is looking into the case.
218
00:09:45,414 --> 00:09:47,803
I don't know why, but
whatever the reason,
219
00:09:47,828 --> 00:09:49,685
it won't be good for Una.
220
00:09:49,710 --> 00:09:51,930
She should have taken the deal.
221
00:09:56,630 --> 00:09:58,284
See you in court.
222
00:10:09,339 --> 00:10:10,992
We'll begin
the arraignment
223
00:10:11,036 --> 00:10:13,081
as soon as the
prosecution arrives.
224
00:10:13,125 --> 00:10:16,495
Ah. What's this?
225
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:18,174
Vice Admiral Pasalk.
226
00:10:18,274 --> 00:10:20,276
I didn't know you
were joining us today.
227
00:10:23,282 --> 00:10:24,718
Admiral, in light
of the defense's
228
00:10:24,743 --> 00:10:26,279
rejection of a plea bargain,
229
00:10:26,304 --> 00:10:28,698
We would like to petition the
court to amend the charges
230
00:10:28,723 --> 00:10:30,725
against Lieutenant
Commander Chin-Riley.
231
00:10:31,970 --> 00:10:34,058
You may proceed, Captain Batel.
232
00:10:34,083 --> 00:10:36,689
For failure to disclose
her genetic modification status,
233
00:10:36,714 --> 00:10:39,636
we are charging Una Chin-Riley
with knowingly submitting
234
00:10:39,661 --> 00:10:41,458
false information to Starfleet
235
00:10:41,483 --> 00:10:45,139
as well as violating
Starfleet code 614 to 617
236
00:10:45,164 --> 00:10:47,297
prohibiting Starfleet
officers from engaging in
237
00:10:47,322 --> 00:10:48,714
permanent bioengineering,
238
00:10:48,739 --> 00:10:51,132
and two counts of sedition.
239
00:10:53,948 --> 00:10:56,386
We're seeking dishonorable
dismissal and 20 years
240
00:10:56,411 --> 00:10:58,108
in a Federation penal colony.
241
00:11:06,526 --> 00:11:08,398
Space.
242
00:11:09,747 --> 00:11:11,966
The final frontier.
243
00:11:13,794 --> 00:11:17,320
These are the voyages of
the starship Enterprise.
244
00:11:18,538 --> 00:11:21,367
Its five-year mission:
245
00:11:21,411 --> 00:11:24,414
to explore strange new worlds..
246
00:11:26,590 --> 00:11:29,114
To seek out new life
247
00:11:29,157 --> 00:11:32,726
and new civilizations,
248
00:11:32,770 --> 00:11:36,861
to boldly go where no
one has gone before.
249
00:12:53,560 --> 00:12:55,823
Twenty years for lying
on an application?
250
00:12:55,848 --> 00:12:58,647
You decided to fight back and
not make this easy for them.
251
00:12:58,672 --> 00:13:01,119
They want to
make an example out of you.
252
00:13:01,144 --> 00:13:03,930
- What do we do?
- We fight.
253
00:13:05,187 --> 00:13:06,615
Who's first on
their witness list?
254
00:13:06,646 --> 00:13:08,973
Admiral Robert April.
255
00:13:08,998 --> 00:13:10,846
April sponsored my
application to the Academy.
256
00:13:10,871 --> 00:13:12,802
I served under him for
years and he promoted me.
257
00:13:12,826 --> 00:13:14,349
- This is good for us, no?
- No.
258
00:13:14,374 --> 00:13:15,941
Pasalk wouldn't bring
a friendly witness
259
00:13:15,966 --> 00:13:17,228
without a strategy.
260
00:13:17,253 --> 00:13:19,211
Put me on the stand.
261
00:13:19,236 --> 00:13:20,890
Let them see that
being an Illyrian
262
00:13:20,915 --> 00:13:23,159
doesn't change who
I am as an officer.
263
00:13:23,184 --> 00:13:26,530
Are you being funny?
You were never funny.
264
00:13:26,555 --> 00:13:28,143
I know it's normally
not a good idea,
265
00:13:28,168 --> 00:13:30,625
but shouldn't they see me, a
successful Starfleet officer?
266
00:13:30,650 --> 00:13:31,806
It's a good story.
267
00:13:31,831 --> 00:13:35,037
Your story doesn't
matter to their case.
268
00:13:35,062 --> 00:13:37,021
You broke the law.
I put you up there,
269
00:13:37,046 --> 00:13:39,048
they'll just use you to
corroborate their facts.
270
00:13:39,073 --> 00:13:41,031
Or worse, to tear you
down, or likely bring down
271
00:13:41,056 --> 00:13:42,836
a bunch of your so-called
friends with you.
272
00:13:45,816 --> 00:13:47,513
Do you care about my story?
273
00:13:47,557 --> 00:13:50,630
I care that my client
274
00:13:50,655 --> 00:13:53,266
not hand the
prosecution the case.
275
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,082
My way this time, Una.
276
00:14:00,918 --> 00:14:02,615
Your way.
277
00:14:06,395 --> 00:14:09,093
The captain suggested you
could set up shop here.
278
00:14:11,776 --> 00:14:13,734
I bet he did.
279
00:14:14,341 --> 00:14:16,779
Well, she's not using it.
280
00:14:21,524 --> 00:14:23,482
I'll need access
to the Starfleet
281
00:14:23,507 --> 00:14:25,676
Uniform Code of Justice.
282
00:14:25,701 --> 00:14:28,268
I assume it's in your database.
283
00:14:28,293 --> 00:14:30,991
Also, Una's service records.
284
00:14:33,516 --> 00:14:35,822
Thank you, Lieutenant
Noonien-Singh.
285
00:14:40,386 --> 00:14:42,432
Is there something else?
286
00:14:42,457 --> 00:14:44,651
I think I might be of some
assistance to the case.
287
00:14:44,676 --> 00:14:48,212
Counselor, are you familiar
with Starfleet v. Wyck?
288
00:14:48,237 --> 00:14:50,892
I am a civil rights lawyer.
289
00:14:51,017 --> 00:14:53,106
Yes, of course.
290
00:14:53,231 --> 00:14:56,451
If I understand the principle
behind the ruling, then...
291
00:14:56,495 --> 00:14:59,629
Starfleet v. Wyck is
used as an example of
292
00:14:59,672 --> 00:15:01,718
"fruit of the poisonous tree."
293
00:15:01,743 --> 00:15:04,447
If evidence is procured
through illegal means,
294
00:15:04,472 --> 00:15:06,088
it's inadmissible in court.
295
00:15:06,113 --> 00:15:08,594
You think some of the
evidence against Una
296
00:15:08,619 --> 00:15:10,011
was illegally obtained?
297
00:15:10,036 --> 00:15:11,433
If it was, could you
get her case thrown out
298
00:15:11,457 --> 00:15:12,791
on a technicality?
299
00:15:12,816 --> 00:15:15,079
If the evidence was rotten,
300
00:15:15,122 --> 00:15:17,908
I might be able to get
her case dismissed.
301
00:15:17,951 --> 00:15:20,693
Lieutenant, is there something
you know that I should know?
302
00:15:20,718 --> 00:15:23,459
Just let me cover
all the bases first.
303
00:15:23,522 --> 00:15:26,873
Well, you know where I'll be.
304
00:15:38,537 --> 00:15:40,017
May I?
305
00:15:41,466 --> 00:15:43,082
Fraternizing with the enemy?
306
00:15:43,486 --> 00:15:45,689
I'll take my chances.
307
00:15:46,715 --> 00:15:47,846
You look awful.
308
00:15:47,871 --> 00:15:49,461
Thanks for that.
309
00:15:49,486 --> 00:15:51,041
Does this have something
to do with the fact that
310
00:15:51,065 --> 00:15:53,180
your name wasn't on the
witness list for the defense?
311
00:15:53,204 --> 00:15:54,334
I know what you're gonna say.
312
00:15:54,358 --> 00:15:56,270
Putting me on the witness
stand is a terrible idea.
313
00:15:56,294 --> 00:15:58,358
But you want to fight
for your friend.
314
00:15:58,383 --> 00:16:00,123
And I can handle it.
315
00:16:00,345 --> 00:16:02,826
I've served with Una longer
than anyone else on this crew.
316
00:16:02,851 --> 00:16:05,201
I'm in the best position
to speak to her character.
317
00:16:05,226 --> 00:16:06,619
When did you two meet?
318
00:16:06,826 --> 00:16:10,134
Uh, I gave a speech
to her Academy class
319
00:16:10,177 --> 00:16:11,657
forever ago.
320
00:16:11,701 --> 00:16:13,909
That must
have been awful for you.
321
00:16:13,934 --> 00:16:16,153
I know how you hate to give
long, inspiring speeches.
322
00:16:17,697 --> 00:16:21,193
I was speaking about a
test mission I'd flown.
323
00:16:22,059 --> 00:16:24,888
Una came up to me afterward
and, uh, pointed out
324
00:16:24,931 --> 00:16:27,586
- a mistake I'd made during reentry.
- Bold.
325
00:16:27,630 --> 00:16:29,632
And annoying.
326
00:16:29,675 --> 00:16:31,677
But she was right.
327
00:16:31,721 --> 00:16:34,549
She had the guts to tell me.
328
00:16:34,593 --> 00:16:36,682
April once told me that
every good captain needs
329
00:16:36,726 --> 00:16:38,771
a first officer who will
tell him when he's wrong.
330
00:16:38,815 --> 00:16:42,166
Yeah, he said that
to me once, too.
331
00:16:43,602 --> 00:16:46,131
And when did you first
learn that she was Illyrian,
332
00:16:46,156 --> 00:16:47,277
Captain Pike?
333
00:16:49,652 --> 00:16:53,960
I ask again. How
long were you aware
334
00:16:53,985 --> 00:16:56,161
that you were harboring
an Illyrian on your ship,
335
00:16:56,186 --> 00:16:57,710
Captain?
336
00:16:57,735 --> 00:16:59,911
I will remind you
you are on the stand,
337
00:16:59,936 --> 00:17:02,219
and under oath you do not have
the option of not answering.
338
00:17:02,243 --> 00:17:04,376
All right, you've
made your point.
339
00:17:04,401 --> 00:17:06,014
I know you want to
help Una, Chris,
340
00:17:06,039 --> 00:17:07,886
but if you take that
stand, this whole case
341
00:17:07,911 --> 00:17:09,216
becomes about you.
342
00:17:09,241 --> 00:17:10,420
You are the captain
of this ship.
343
00:17:10,444 --> 00:17:13,086
You knew Una was an Illyrian,
and you didn't tell Starfleet.
344
00:17:13,110 --> 00:17:14,667
You could be charged
with conspiracy,
345
00:17:14,692 --> 00:17:17,216
and your whole crew
could be at risk.
346
00:17:17,241 --> 00:17:20,113
No inspiring speeches today.
347
00:17:20,138 --> 00:17:22,140
Today, if you want to help Una,
348
00:17:22,165 --> 00:17:24,602
the best thing you can do is
leave the talking to others.
349
00:17:26,558 --> 00:17:27,864
"Mr. Spock,
350
00:17:27,906 --> 00:17:30,562
"I do hope you
understand why I have to
351
00:17:30,605 --> 00:17:32,303
"throw your friend in jail
352
00:17:32,328 --> 00:17:34,584
simply for being who she is."
353
00:17:34,609 --> 00:17:37,134
"Of course, Mr. Pasalk.
354
00:17:37,177 --> 00:17:39,745
"It is only logical.
355
00:17:39,789 --> 00:17:42,879
Shall we play a round of
Kal-toh this weekend?"
356
00:17:42,922 --> 00:17:46,404
"Yes. That would be enjoyable."
357
00:17:48,895 --> 00:17:50,367
You don't see the tension there?
358
00:17:51,278 --> 00:17:52,932
What tension?
359
00:17:52,976 --> 00:17:55,195
They're all, like, buddy-buddy.
360
00:17:55,239 --> 00:17:57,807
Vulcan bros.
361
00:17:57,850 --> 00:17:59,547
Vulcans
may not give much,
362
00:17:59,591 --> 00:18:01,332
but you can read
their body language.
363
00:18:01,801 --> 00:18:03,679
And those two...
364
00:18:05,075 --> 00:18:06,467
hate each other.
365
00:18:11,168 --> 00:18:13,474
Are you messing
with me right now?
366
00:18:23,702 --> 00:18:27,184
I regret that you had to
witness that outburst.
367
00:18:29,329 --> 00:18:30,635
We won't say a word.
368
00:18:30,753 --> 00:18:32,189
- Mm-mmm.
- Thank you, Doctor.
369
00:18:32,232 --> 00:18:34,669
Of all of my father's
former colleagues,
370
00:18:34,694 --> 00:18:38,263
Pasalk truly brings
out the worst in me.
371
00:18:45,593 --> 00:18:47,552
Ensign Uhura.
372
00:18:47,613 --> 00:18:50,878
I need any communications
referencing Commander Chin-Riley
373
00:18:50,903 --> 00:18:52,513
for the last six months.
374
00:18:52,557 --> 00:18:54,820
Okay. I'll collate.
375
00:18:54,864 --> 00:18:58,389
Including all personal
logs, ship-wide.
376
00:19:01,392 --> 00:19:04,569
Sir, with respect,
377
00:19:04,612 --> 00:19:08,225
per Regulation 25, Section B,
all personal logs remain sealed
378
00:19:08,250 --> 00:19:10,383
unless by order of
Starfleet Command.
379
00:19:10,444 --> 00:19:12,707
- Sufficient evidence...
- I know the rules, Ensign.
380
00:19:12,732 --> 00:19:14,168
I'm giving you an order.
381
00:19:14,250 --> 00:19:16,588
You're doing this to help Una.
382
00:19:16,613 --> 00:19:18,789
Right? She's your friend,
383
00:19:18,814 --> 00:19:21,120
your mentor. I understand.
384
00:19:21,238 --> 00:19:23,327
But you are mine.
385
00:19:24,585 --> 00:19:26,086
And giving me an
illegal order will just
386
00:19:26,110 --> 00:19:27,915
get you in trouble
if I follow it.
387
00:19:27,940 --> 00:19:31,248
I don't think the commander
would want that for you.
388
00:19:31,291 --> 00:19:32,945
Neither do I.
389
00:19:32,989 --> 00:19:36,035
We need to find out
who turned her in.
390
00:19:36,079 --> 00:19:38,565
It might well be the
only way to save her.
391
00:19:38,590 --> 00:19:40,251
Then, respectfully,
392
00:19:40,276 --> 00:19:42,756
we're going to have to
find out another way.
393
00:19:42,781 --> 00:19:46,437
- Nyota...
- I'm sorry. No.
394
00:20:03,019 --> 00:20:04,716
This court
is now in session.
395
00:20:04,759 --> 00:20:06,979
Joining me as judges
in this tribunal
396
00:20:07,023 --> 00:20:10,330
are Space Command
Representative Zus Tlaggul and
397
00:20:10,374 --> 00:20:12,550
Starfleet Commander Chiv.
398
00:20:12,593 --> 00:20:15,127
Commander Chin-Riley,
do you consent
399
00:20:15,152 --> 00:20:16,462
to Captain Batel
400
00:20:16,487 --> 00:20:18,531
as the prosecuting officer?
401
00:20:18,864 --> 00:20:19,924
I do.
402
00:20:19,949 --> 00:20:22,429
Let the charges be read.
403
00:20:24,419 --> 00:20:26,887
Lieutenant
commander Una Chin-Riley
404
00:20:26,912 --> 00:20:28,762
has been formally
charged with violating
405
00:20:28,787 --> 00:20:32,616
Starfleet regulation 614-617,
406
00:20:32,697 --> 00:20:35,047
prohibiting permanent
DNA modification,
407
00:20:35,072 --> 00:20:37,717
as well as submitting false
information to Starfleet,
408
00:20:37,742 --> 00:20:40,223
and two counts of sedition.
409
00:20:43,069 --> 00:20:44,810
How do you plead, Commander?
410
00:20:46,279 --> 00:20:49,152
Not guilty.
411
00:20:54,766 --> 00:20:58,030
The Federation's stance
on genetic engineering is clear.
412
00:20:58,074 --> 00:21:01,207
The practice is
dangerous and illegal.
413
00:21:01,251 --> 00:21:02,905
The reasons for this are many,
414
00:21:02,948 --> 00:21:05,342
but the outcome of the
Eugenics Wars on Earth
415
00:21:05,367 --> 00:21:07,413
speaks for itself.
416
00:21:07,474 --> 00:21:09,824
Tens of millions dead.
417
00:21:10,953 --> 00:21:12,324
Pushed to its limits,
418
00:21:12,349 --> 00:21:16,023
genetic engineering is
nothing short of playing God.
419
00:21:16,048 --> 00:21:19,965
By interfering with DNA and
removing genetic outliers,
420
00:21:19,990 --> 00:21:23,555
we endanger the very essence
of natural evolution.
421
00:21:35,513 --> 00:21:36,621
Captain Batel is right.
422
00:21:36,645 --> 00:21:38,517
Permanent genetic modification
423
00:21:38,542 --> 00:21:40,501
is illegal under Federation law.
424
00:21:41,472 --> 00:21:43,032
Slavery was once legal.
425
00:21:43,075 --> 00:21:45,611
Apartheid was legal.
426
00:21:45,636 --> 00:21:48,378
Discrimination against people
for how they worshipped,
427
00:21:48,403 --> 00:21:52,016
how they loved, their gender,
color of their skin...
428
00:21:52,041 --> 00:21:54,043
All legal at one
time or another.
429
00:21:54,068 --> 00:21:57,506
A law does not make
something just.
430
00:21:57,568 --> 00:22:01,311
I'm not saying the
Federation means to do harm.
431
00:22:01,336 --> 00:22:04,165
Their experience with
genetic modification...
432
00:22:04,190 --> 00:22:05,843
The Eugenics Wars...
433
00:22:05,868 --> 00:22:07,767
Was horrific.
434
00:22:08,073 --> 00:22:12,512
The pain that Earth
felt, unimaginable.
435
00:22:12,537 --> 00:22:15,279
The Federation built
a utopia in its wake,
436
00:22:15,304 --> 00:22:17,567
and in an effort to
protect that utopia,
437
00:22:17,592 --> 00:22:20,421
they became blinded by
a centuries-old fear,
438
00:22:20,446 --> 00:22:23,743
so much so that they
have, perhaps unknowingly,
439
00:22:23,768 --> 00:22:26,205
become persecutors.
440
00:22:26,249 --> 00:22:28,773
My client is only here
because of who she is
441
00:22:28,816 --> 00:22:29,971
and because she felt she had
442
00:22:29,996 --> 00:22:32,230
no other choice than
to hide that fact.
443
00:22:32,255 --> 00:22:34,039
Just like the
millions before her
444
00:22:34,064 --> 00:22:35,940
who were forced to hide
how they worshipped,
445
00:22:35,965 --> 00:22:38,279
how they loved, what
they truly looked like,
446
00:22:38,304 --> 00:22:40,002
because it made others
447
00:22:40,027 --> 00:22:41,724
uncomfortable.
448
00:22:41,749 --> 00:22:44,099
Because it made others afraid.
449
00:22:44,124 --> 00:22:47,518
If a law is not just, then I ask
450
00:22:47,618 --> 00:22:51,056
how are we to trust those
who created that law
451
00:22:51,100 --> 00:22:53,264
to serve justice?
452
00:22:53,289 --> 00:22:56,901
The prosecution calls
Admiral Robert April to the stand.
453
00:22:56,966 --> 00:22:59,316
Admiral April, Una Chin-Riley
served under your command
454
00:22:59,341 --> 00:23:01,681
when you were captain of
the USS Enterprise, correct?
455
00:23:01,706 --> 00:23:02,644
Yes.
456
00:23:02,669 --> 00:23:04,469
But before that, you
sponsored her application
457
00:23:04,494 --> 00:23:06,433
- to Starfleet Academy.
- I did.
458
00:23:06,458 --> 00:23:07,437
So would it be fair to say
459
00:23:07,462 --> 00:23:10,570
you have an investment
in Una's career?
460
00:23:12,221 --> 00:23:13,774
It would.
461
00:23:13,940 --> 00:23:15,681
Admiral, I have to ask,
462
00:23:15,706 --> 00:23:18,414
at any point, did Lieutenant
Commander Chin-Riley
463
00:23:18,439 --> 00:23:21,192
disclose to you that she
was genetically modified?
464
00:23:21,217 --> 00:23:23,195
- No.
- If you had known she was genetically modified,
465
00:23:23,219 --> 00:23:25,086
would you have sponsored
her application
466
00:23:25,111 --> 00:23:26,550
to Starfleet Academy?
467
00:23:26,575 --> 00:23:29,094
Una is an extremely
talented officer,
468
00:23:29,138 --> 00:23:31,997
and one of the most gifted
applicants I'd ever met.
469
00:23:32,022 --> 00:23:33,471
That is not the question, sir.
470
00:23:37,069 --> 00:23:39,092
If you had known Una Chin-Riley
was genetically modified,
471
00:23:39,116 --> 00:23:40,866
would you have sponsored
her application
472
00:23:40,891 --> 00:23:42,762
to Starfleet Academy?
473
00:23:43,153 --> 00:23:45,000
You're under oath, sir.
474
00:23:46,666 --> 00:23:48,643
No, I would not.
475
00:23:52,455 --> 00:23:54,109
Thank you, Admiral.
476
00:23:54,206 --> 00:23:58,471
It takes a big man to
admit his mistakes.
477
00:23:58,515 --> 00:24:00,320
I admire that, Admiral.
478
00:24:00,345 --> 00:24:03,435
Just for the record, could
you tell the court why
479
00:24:03,460 --> 00:24:05,723
you would not have sponsored
Commander Chin-Riley's
480
00:24:05,748 --> 00:24:08,108
Starfleet application,
specifically?
481
00:24:08,133 --> 00:24:11,180
Starfleet Regulation
17, Article 12
482
00:24:11,223 --> 00:24:14,298
explicitly prohibits
genetically modified people,
483
00:24:14,323 --> 00:24:17,030
- such as Illyrians, from serving.
- Of course.
484
00:24:17,055 --> 00:24:20,841
You are an honorable,
decorated admiral.
485
00:24:20,885 --> 00:24:23,279
You wouldn't want
to break protocol
486
00:24:23,322 --> 00:24:25,150
for any one
individual applicant.
487
00:24:25,194 --> 00:24:28,289
- Let me stress this is not personal.
- Right.
488
00:24:28,314 --> 00:24:29,702
It's the law.
489
00:24:29,962 --> 00:24:31,113
Admiral April,
490
00:24:31,156 --> 00:24:35,117
can you tell me what
General Order One is?
491
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:36,922
Objection. Relevance?
492
00:24:36,947 --> 00:24:40,298
I'm curious myself. Tread
carefully, Counselor.
493
00:24:40,337 --> 00:24:42,513
I will, Your Honor. Admiral,
494
00:24:42,695 --> 00:24:45,133
what is General Order One?
495
00:24:45,158 --> 00:24:48,292
No starship may interfere
with the normal development of
496
00:24:48,317 --> 00:24:51,364
- any alien life or society.
- Yes.
497
00:24:51,437 --> 00:24:53,004
A very important law.
498
00:24:53,029 --> 00:24:55,248
So much so that you
now refer to it as
499
00:24:55,273 --> 00:24:56,752
the Prime Directive,
500
00:24:56,777 --> 00:24:59,258
- do you not?
- Yes, that is correct.
501
00:24:59,283 --> 00:25:01,851
In 2246, while in
command of the Enterprise,
502
00:25:01,876 --> 00:25:04,967
you chose to warn the Perricans,
a pre-warp civilization,
503
00:25:04,992 --> 00:25:07,316
about a possibly
apocalyptic meteor shower
504
00:25:07,341 --> 00:25:08,864
about to hit their planet.
505
00:25:08,889 --> 00:25:11,979
Were you then following
General Order One?
506
00:25:12,023 --> 00:25:14,373
- That was different.
- 2248.
507
00:25:14,398 --> 00:25:17,488
You sent your science officer
to the industrial-age planet
508
00:25:17,513 --> 00:25:19,559
Na'rel to solve
the imminent threat
509
00:25:19,584 --> 00:25:21,151
of an extinction-level drought
510
00:25:21,176 --> 00:25:23,618
by sharing Federation
technology.
511
00:25:23,643 --> 00:25:26,848
- Were you in compliance then?
- Objection. Relevance again.
512
00:25:26,873 --> 00:25:28,461
An entire planet
would have died.
513
00:25:28,486 --> 00:25:31,309
And when you landed on the
hostile planet Man-us 2
514
00:25:31,334 --> 00:25:33,447
without your security officer,
515
00:25:33,472 --> 00:25:35,648
you chose to reveal
your starship
516
00:25:35,673 --> 00:25:37,893
to the pre-warp
civilization Ohawk.
517
00:25:37,918 --> 00:25:40,269
- Objection!
- Did you comply then, Admiral?
518
00:25:40,312 --> 00:25:42,009
Counselor,
I will remind you
519
00:25:42,053 --> 00:25:44,229
the witness is
not on trial here.
520
00:25:44,273 --> 00:25:47,728
Admiral, it would seem
that the rules of Starfleet
521
00:25:47,753 --> 00:25:50,645
only apply when a captain
deems that they do.
522
00:25:53,820 --> 00:25:55,822
Is there a question, Counselor?
523
00:25:55,847 --> 00:25:57,400
Yes.
524
00:25:58,321 --> 00:26:00,453
You have shown
that you have been
525
00:26:00,478 --> 00:26:02,523
repeatedly willing to break
526
00:26:02,548 --> 00:26:05,072
the very first
order of Starfleet
527
00:26:05,100 --> 00:26:07,227
and you are hailed as a hero.
528
00:26:07,252 --> 00:26:11,213
You can break the law if
you so choose. So, hiding
529
00:26:11,256 --> 00:26:13,398
behind order and protocol
to explain why you would
530
00:26:13,423 --> 00:26:15,730
not have admitted Una
Chin-Riley to Starfleet
531
00:26:15,755 --> 00:26:17,498
is a sanctimonious
falsehood, is it not?
532
00:26:17,523 --> 00:26:20,047
- Objection!
- Counselor!
533
00:26:20,072 --> 00:26:22,916
You will cease this line
of questioning at once.
534
00:26:22,941 --> 00:26:25,985
My client did not ask to
be genetically modified.
535
00:26:26,010 --> 00:26:28,201
It is an Illyrian
cultural practice
536
00:26:28,226 --> 00:26:30,600
done to children before
they are even born.
537
00:26:30,625 --> 00:26:31,887
It is done for survival,
538
00:26:31,912 --> 00:26:34,001
and yet she has been arrested
539
00:26:34,026 --> 00:26:35,964
because of a violation of a law.
540
00:26:35,989 --> 00:26:39,123
But the admiral has just shown
us that Starfleet regulations
541
00:26:39,148 --> 00:26:41,827
are flimsy and
subjective at best.
542
00:26:41,852 --> 00:26:45,464
Starfleet captains make
judgement calls every day.
543
00:26:45,508 --> 00:26:47,074
Calls that save lives.
544
00:26:47,099 --> 00:26:49,057
Una Chin-Riley's
services to Starfleet
545
00:26:49,082 --> 00:26:50,649
have been commendable, yes.
546
00:26:50,674 --> 00:26:53,160
But the law that she broke
is there to save lives
547
00:26:53,185 --> 00:26:55,144
and prevent genocide.
548
00:26:55,169 --> 00:26:57,433
So, if you ask me, Counselor,
549
00:26:57,458 --> 00:26:59,330
if I would have denied
Commander Chin-Riley's
550
00:26:59,355 --> 00:27:01,275
access to Starfleet
Academy had I known
551
00:27:01,300 --> 00:27:02,693
she was genetically modified,
552
00:27:02,718 --> 00:27:05,721
my answer is still
yes, I would have.
553
00:27:08,248 --> 00:27:10,174
So you admit that the
reason for your decision
554
00:27:10,215 --> 00:27:12,379
is not law, but fear
and racial prejudice.
555
00:27:12,404 --> 00:27:15,755
- Objection!
- Sustained. - Counselor Ketoul,
556
00:27:15,780 --> 00:27:18,086
this is a court martial
for Una Chin-Riley,
557
00:27:18,111 --> 00:27:19,703
not Admiral April.
558
00:27:19,728 --> 00:27:21,965
That you are unable
to defend your client
559
00:27:21,990 --> 00:27:23,871
does not permit you to
attack the Federation
560
00:27:23,896 --> 00:27:26,070
or our officers.
561
00:27:26,095 --> 00:27:28,825
All of the admiral's
testimony will be stricken
562
00:27:28,850 --> 00:27:30,634
from the court record.
563
00:27:33,478 --> 00:27:35,828
Did Una's lawyer just try
and indict Admiral April?
564
00:27:35,853 --> 00:27:37,202
It would appear so.
565
00:27:37,227 --> 00:27:38,628
I guess that's one strategy.
566
00:27:38,653 --> 00:27:41,016
That didn't exactly
make April look good.
567
00:27:41,041 --> 00:27:43,914
But how does any
of this help Una?
568
00:27:45,444 --> 00:27:47,446
Oh, boy.
569
00:27:47,476 --> 00:27:49,913
So, the lawyer was your idea.
570
00:27:50,050 --> 00:27:51,313
She was.
571
00:27:52,749 --> 00:27:54,293
She's one of the best
civil rights litigators
572
00:27:54,317 --> 00:27:56,710
in the galaxy, and Una's friend.
573
00:27:59,153 --> 00:28:00,764
You know, I think highly of Una.
574
00:28:00,887 --> 00:28:04,468
Promoted her faster than any
other officer on my ship.
575
00:28:04,493 --> 00:28:06,844
Recommended her for
the Medal of Gallantry
576
00:28:06,869 --> 00:28:09,915
after the Marcel
disaster in 2248.
577
00:28:09,940 --> 00:28:11,898
Yeah, I know.
578
00:28:11,942 --> 00:28:13,952
It's a shame the rest of the
court didn't get a chance
579
00:28:13,976 --> 00:28:15,674
to hear that today.
580
00:28:29,996 --> 00:28:31,962
What the hell was that?
581
00:28:32,005 --> 00:28:33,267
You're supposed to defend me,
582
00:28:33,311 --> 00:28:34,617
not attack Admiral April,
583
00:28:34,660 --> 00:28:37,620
- not indict the Federation.
- Why not?
584
00:28:37,663 --> 00:28:39,926
Why are you still
trying to protect them?
585
00:28:39,951 --> 00:28:42,170
I thought you said you
were ready for this fight.
586
00:28:42,195 --> 00:28:45,345
Do you know how rare it is
to get a platform like this?
587
00:28:45,591 --> 00:28:46,564
Platform?
588
00:28:46,589 --> 00:28:49,548
Most Illyrians don't
have your privilege.
589
00:28:49,573 --> 00:28:51,378
Has it occurred to you that
your case might bring us
590
00:28:51,402 --> 00:28:53,752
one step closer in
dismantling the law?
591
00:28:53,777 --> 00:28:57,477
Maybe in the future there
can be justice for Illyrians.
592
00:28:57,502 --> 00:28:59,069
I thought you knew that.
593
00:28:59,094 --> 00:29:01,923
All you ever wanted
here was a soapbox.
594
00:29:01,948 --> 00:29:03,515
This isn't about defending me.
595
00:29:03,540 --> 00:29:05,363
This is just a way for you
to broadcast your hatred
596
00:29:05,387 --> 00:29:07,040
of the Federation.
597
00:29:07,065 --> 00:29:10,460
I thought you were here to
help me, but you're not.
598
00:29:10,485 --> 00:29:12,365
As long as you can make
the Federation look bad,
599
00:29:12,390 --> 00:29:14,456
then who the hell cares if I
get left behind in the process?
600
00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:19,128
I think we both know you're not
the one who gets left behind.
601
00:29:20,609 --> 00:29:22,350
Neera...
602
00:29:22,375 --> 00:29:24,290
That's all in the past.
603
00:29:24,406 --> 00:29:25,842
We should talk about it.
604
00:29:25,885 --> 00:29:27,365
Please.
605
00:29:27,409 --> 00:29:29,802
I told you that I would try.
606
00:29:30,082 --> 00:29:32,544
And that's exactly
what I'm doing.
607
00:29:32,787 --> 00:29:34,452
Because at least with me,
608
00:29:34,477 --> 00:29:36,522
what you see is what you get.
609
00:29:39,072 --> 00:29:41,814
Now, if you'll excuse
me, I have work to do.
610
00:29:53,146 --> 00:29:54,875
The defense calls to the stand
611
00:29:54,900 --> 00:29:57,598
three expert
character witnesses.
612
00:29:57,942 --> 00:29:59,335
La'An Noonien-Singh,
613
00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:01,606
security officer for
the USS Enterprise.
614
00:30:01,631 --> 00:30:03,589
I am the chief science officer.
615
00:30:03,614 --> 00:30:07,270
Chief medical officer
of the USS Enterprise.
616
00:30:07,295 --> 00:30:10,168
I graduated top of my class
and have been promoted
617
00:30:10,193 --> 00:30:12,064
each year during my
tenure in Starfleet.
618
00:30:12,089 --> 00:30:13,623
You were also in consideration
619
00:30:13,648 --> 00:30:15,848
- for the Starfleet Medal of Gallantry.
- Yes.
620
00:30:15,873 --> 00:30:18,170
- So you've saved lives?
- Yes.
621
00:30:18,195 --> 00:30:20,828
When did you first
meet Una Chin-Riley?
622
00:30:20,853 --> 00:30:23,900
On my first day as an
ensign on the Enterprise.
623
00:30:23,925 --> 00:30:25,771
She was part of
the rescue mission
624
00:30:25,796 --> 00:30:29,147
that found me after I escaped
from a Gorn breeding planet.
625
00:30:29,172 --> 00:30:30,882
You have a very
unique last name.
626
00:30:30,907 --> 00:30:34,476
- Do you have any relation to Khan Noonien Singh?
- Yes.
627
00:30:34,501 --> 00:30:37,043
Did you ever suspect
Una to be an Illyrian?
628
00:30:37,087 --> 00:30:39,132
No, I did not.
629
00:30:43,176 --> 00:30:45,353
Did you ever get the sense
that Commander Chin-Riley
630
00:30:45,378 --> 00:30:47,153
was hiding something?
631
00:30:48,603 --> 00:30:50,256
Never.
632
00:30:54,191 --> 00:30:57,150
Just that she was
discreet and empathetic
633
00:30:57,175 --> 00:31:00,570
and handled personal
matters with great care.
634
00:31:00,595 --> 00:31:04,817
Yes, I did get the sense that
she was hiding something.
635
00:31:04,842 --> 00:31:06,888
What was she hiding?
636
00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:15,753
An affinity for Gilbert
and Sullivan musicals.
637
00:31:19,747 --> 00:31:23,350
After the defendant rescued
you, did you remain close?
638
00:31:24,374 --> 00:31:26,681
I had no family left.
639
00:31:26,706 --> 00:31:28,882
Una made sure I
was taken care of.
640
00:31:29,056 --> 00:31:32,202
She sponsored my
application to Starfleet.
641
00:31:32,227 --> 00:31:34,272
Would it be fair to say that
642
00:31:34,297 --> 00:31:36,513
you would not have
joined Starfleet
643
00:31:36,538 --> 00:31:39,802
if not for Commander Chin-Riley?
644
00:31:39,845 --> 00:31:43,370
Counselor, I wouldn't be
alive if it weren't for Una.
645
00:31:43,414 --> 00:31:45,634
And the people you
saved during your career,
646
00:31:45,677 --> 00:31:47,549
would they be alive?
647
00:31:48,593 --> 00:31:51,378
No, they would not.
648
00:31:53,013 --> 00:31:55,443
Mr. Spock, if the
defendant broke the law,
649
00:31:55,468 --> 00:31:57,601
would it follow that the
only logical course of action
650
00:31:57,626 --> 00:31:59,672
is for her to be
punished accordingly?
651
00:31:59,697 --> 00:32:02,753
Perhaps. Although I
think it is illogical
652
00:32:02,778 --> 00:32:04,388
for Starfleet to punish itself.
653
00:32:04,413 --> 00:32:06,154
I'm afraid I don't understand.
654
00:32:07,537 --> 00:32:09,183
The loss of Una
would be destructive
655
00:32:09,208 --> 00:32:10,753
to Starfleet as an organization.
656
00:32:12,486 --> 00:32:14,837
She is an extraordinary officer.
657
00:32:17,876 --> 00:32:19,790
Please describe the nature
of your relationship
658
00:32:19,815 --> 00:32:21,164
with the defendant.
659
00:32:21,207 --> 00:32:22,600
She is a mentor.
660
00:32:22,625 --> 00:32:24,378
I have learned a great
deal about leadership
661
00:32:24,403 --> 00:32:25,950
by serving under her.
662
00:32:25,975 --> 00:32:30,197
She puts the lives of her
crew above her own. Always.
663
00:32:30,222 --> 00:32:31,789
She is a friend.
664
00:32:31,813 --> 00:32:34,594
Family. Una is
665
00:32:34,619 --> 00:32:36,186
family.
666
00:32:47,913 --> 00:32:49,939
Thank you, Lieutenant.
667
00:32:50,015 --> 00:32:53,198
Volume 12.9 of the
Starfleet Uniform
668
00:32:53,223 --> 00:32:54,877
Code of Justice.
669
00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:56,930
If you need anything
else, I will...
670
00:32:56,955 --> 00:32:58,857
Lieutenant, there is one
more thing. I was wondering,
671
00:32:58,881 --> 00:33:00,433
did you have any
luck finding out
672
00:33:00,458 --> 00:33:03,635
how the prosecution learned
that Una was Illyrian?
673
00:33:03,817 --> 00:33:06,341
No, not-not so far.
674
00:33:06,366 --> 00:33:09,500
But you have an idea
about it, don't you?
675
00:33:11,284 --> 00:33:13,286
You think it was you.
676
00:33:14,984 --> 00:33:16,725
Yes.
677
00:33:16,768 --> 00:33:18,297
Why is that?
678
00:33:18,322 --> 00:33:19,668
The night I found out
679
00:33:19,693 --> 00:33:22,685
Una was Illyrian, I was...
680
00:33:24,471 --> 00:33:26,082
I was angry.
681
00:33:26,125 --> 00:33:28,040
I recorded a personal log.
682
00:33:28,084 --> 00:33:30,300
And you think that
somebody got ahold
683
00:33:30,325 --> 00:33:31,935
of that personal log,
684
00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:34,223
and that's how Una was exposed.
685
00:33:34,287 --> 00:33:36,028
- Yes.
- Interesting.
686
00:33:36,053 --> 00:33:38,229
May I ask why you were angry?
687
00:33:38,298 --> 00:33:42,172
It can't be because Una
was genetically augmented.
688
00:33:42,201 --> 00:33:44,682
Considering your last
name, I would think
689
00:33:44,707 --> 00:33:46,273
you would understand the nuances
690
00:33:46,298 --> 00:33:48,203
of genetic manipulation
better than most.
691
00:33:49,141 --> 00:33:51,164
Una was my friend.
She lied to me.
692
00:33:51,189 --> 00:33:53,278
It's not that simple, is it?
693
00:33:54,186 --> 00:33:56,348
- No.
- Could it be
694
00:33:56,373 --> 00:33:59,936
that you carry your
family's augmentations,
695
00:33:59,961 --> 00:34:02,833
and you believe
that because of them
696
00:34:02,858 --> 00:34:04,947
you may become dangerous?
697
00:34:06,339 --> 00:34:08,298
Yes, I do.
698
00:34:11,301 --> 00:34:14,086
There is nothing wrong
with you, Lieutenant.
699
00:34:16,101 --> 00:34:18,887
No hidden monster inside.
700
00:34:18,912 --> 00:34:20,232
- You don't know that.
- But I do.
701
00:34:20,257 --> 00:34:21,640
It's how they make us feel.
702
00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:24,824
They look down at
us for so long that
703
00:34:24,849 --> 00:34:27,128
we begin to look
down at ourselves.
704
00:34:28,753 --> 00:34:30,275
Genetics is not destiny,
705
00:34:30,300 --> 00:34:33,215
despite what you may
have been taught.
706
00:34:33,279 --> 00:34:36,108
The fear you have of
yourself, it's not your own.
707
00:34:36,152 --> 00:34:38,154
It was drilled into you.
708
00:34:38,197 --> 00:34:41,061
You're not born a monster.
709
00:34:41,086 --> 00:34:44,193
You were just born with
a capacity for actions,
710
00:34:44,218 --> 00:34:46,552
good or ill.
711
00:34:46,597 --> 00:34:48,338
Just like the rest of us.
712
00:34:50,862 --> 00:34:52,994
In any case...
713
00:34:54,039 --> 00:34:56,999
it takes six months at a minimum
714
00:34:57,042 --> 00:34:58,435
after a request
715
00:34:58,478 --> 00:35:00,916
from a boatload of admirals
716
00:35:00,941 --> 00:35:03,465
to subpoena a personal log.
717
00:35:03,527 --> 00:35:06,138
They haven't had
nearly that long.
718
00:35:06,182 --> 00:35:07,991
I guarantee, you
are not the person
719
00:35:08,016 --> 00:35:10,714
who leaked Una's true
identity to Starfleet.
720
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:20,040
But if it wasn't my log
that caused this, then
721
00:35:20,065 --> 00:35:22,154
who turned in Una?
722
00:35:22,179 --> 00:35:24,529
You're head of security here.
723
00:35:24,554 --> 00:35:26,948
Una speaks highly of you,
724
00:35:26,973 --> 00:35:30,063
which is not something
she does of many people.
725
00:35:30,088 --> 00:35:32,525
Who do you think did it?
726
00:35:32,996 --> 00:35:35,346
I-I d... I don't know.
727
00:35:36,774 --> 00:35:39,255
Someone who could gain
from exposing the truth.
728
00:35:39,345 --> 00:35:41,391
My thoughts exactly.
729
00:35:43,045 --> 00:35:46,700
Thank you. You've
been very helpful.
730
00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:50,732
Why do I feel like I've
just been hit by a shuttle?
731
00:35:50,757 --> 00:35:52,803
I'll take that as a compliment.
732
00:36:02,971 --> 00:36:04,606
I would like to
call the defendant
733
00:36:04,631 --> 00:36:06,808
Una Chin-Riley to the stand.
734
00:36:14,598 --> 00:36:16,774
How long have you
been in Starfleet?
735
00:36:16,818 --> 00:36:18,976
Twenty-five years.
736
00:36:19,001 --> 00:36:22,396
Would you call this
career your life's goal?
737
00:36:22,421 --> 00:36:24,108
It's all I've ever wanted.
738
00:36:24,133 --> 00:36:27,827
You knew you were Illyrian,
thus genetically modified.
739
00:36:27,852 --> 00:36:29,767
Didn't you think you
might find yourself
740
00:36:29,792 --> 00:36:31,837
in this position one day?
741
00:36:31,862 --> 00:36:33,843
I had been warned, yes.
742
00:36:33,868 --> 00:36:35,802
So why join Starfleet?
743
00:36:37,664 --> 00:36:40,755
Ad astra per aspera.
744
00:36:40,780 --> 00:36:42,934
Could you translate
for the court?
745
00:36:45,542 --> 00:36:48,893
"To the stars through hardship."
746
00:36:48,937 --> 00:36:52,244
It was the Starfleet motto
before the Federation.
747
00:36:52,288 --> 00:36:54,333
I learned it studying
history in school.
748
00:36:54,358 --> 00:36:57,187
Why were you drawn
to that motto?
749
00:36:57,249 --> 00:37:00,252
I knew it meant we
must endure hardship
750
00:37:00,296 --> 00:37:01,906
to get to the stars.
751
00:37:01,931 --> 00:37:03,889
But I like to think
that it also means
752
00:37:03,914 --> 00:37:06,003
that the stars could deliver us
753
00:37:06,028 --> 00:37:08,496
from anything. That
754
00:37:08,521 --> 00:37:11,568
in the mystery an
vastness of space,
755
00:37:11,611 --> 00:37:14,223
we might not just
satisfy our curiosity,
756
00:37:14,729 --> 00:37:16,790
our need for exploration,
757
00:37:16,834 --> 00:37:21,143
but that in it, we
might each also find...
758
00:37:21,168 --> 00:37:23,214
salvation.
759
00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:26,278
Why would you need salvation?
760
00:37:28,104 --> 00:37:30,193
Was your childhood difficult?
761
00:37:31,571 --> 00:37:33,976
Objection. The defendant's
childhood isn't relevant here.
762
00:37:34,001 --> 00:37:36,873
I'm simply
establishing context.
763
00:37:36,898 --> 00:37:40,118
If Una Chin-Riley is to be
tried for being an Illyrian,
764
00:37:40,162 --> 00:37:44,035
then the court must understand
what it means to be an Illyrian.
765
00:37:44,079 --> 00:37:46,820
We'll allow it to
continue, Counselor.
766
00:37:46,864 --> 00:37:48,170
Thank you.
767
00:37:48,213 --> 00:37:50,302
You grew up in a
Federation colony
768
00:37:50,346 --> 00:37:52,696
in the Vaultera Nebula, correct?
769
00:37:52,739 --> 00:37:55,220
Yes. We were given
provisional membership
770
00:37:55,264 --> 00:37:57,534
in the Federation the
year before I was born.
771
00:37:57,559 --> 00:38:00,191
On the condition that
all genetic modification
772
00:38:00,216 --> 00:38:02,333
was to cease. Is that correct?
773
00:38:02,358 --> 00:38:05,535
- Yes.
- But that didn't happen, did it?
774
00:38:07,711 --> 00:38:10,366
It did for some.
775
00:38:10,409 --> 00:38:13,760
But for other
families, like mine,
776
00:38:13,804 --> 00:38:16,763
it was our tradition.
777
00:38:16,807 --> 00:38:18,746
Our heritage.
778
00:38:18,771 --> 00:38:21,551
What was life like
for your family
779
00:38:21,594 --> 00:38:23,596
under the Federation?
780
00:38:25,628 --> 00:38:27,818
We no longer
discussed our customs.
781
00:38:27,861 --> 00:38:30,995
We performed our
rituals only in secret.
782
00:38:31,039 --> 00:38:34,087
Those who could hid
their modifications.
783
00:38:34,112 --> 00:38:37,001
When new children
were born, parents
784
00:38:37,026 --> 00:38:39,995
sought out friendly
doctors to deliver them.
785
00:38:41,130 --> 00:38:42,827
We knew if we were
ever found to be
786
00:38:42,852 --> 00:38:45,158
genetically augmented
we would be arrested.
787
00:38:45,221 --> 00:38:47,919
Did that ever happen
to anyone you knew?
788
00:38:48,083 --> 00:38:50,710
A boy I went to school with.
789
00:38:50,735 --> 00:38:52,563
Ivan Ketoul.
790
00:38:52,716 --> 00:38:55,197
He was my best friend's cousin.
791
00:38:55,222 --> 00:38:57,224
What happened to him?
792
00:38:57,249 --> 00:38:59,694
Some of us have immune
systems that can glow.
793
00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:04,115
Someone must have seen
him. He came home one day
794
00:39:04,159 --> 00:39:07,031
to find the word "augment"
on their door. We had just
795
00:39:07,075 --> 00:39:09,033
learned about
augments in school.
796
00:39:09,077 --> 00:39:11,993
Opinions on them were clear.
797
00:39:13,450 --> 00:39:15,626
Someone must have found out.
798
00:39:16,171 --> 00:39:17,955
Maybe it was just a prank.
799
00:39:17,999 --> 00:39:19,957
Did anyone defend him,
800
00:39:20,001 --> 00:39:21,306
his family?
801
00:39:22,159 --> 00:39:23,987
Some.
802
00:39:24,012 --> 00:39:26,206
But there weren't enough voices.
803
00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:30,421
Ivan and his parents were
arrested in their home.
804
00:39:30,446 --> 00:39:32,013
He was ten years old.
805
00:39:34,868 --> 00:39:36,958
How did this affect
your community?
806
00:39:36,983 --> 00:39:38,985
Some families moved
to other planets
807
00:39:39,010 --> 00:39:40,968
that weren't Federation.
808
00:39:40,995 --> 00:39:43,214
And those of us who stayed,
809
00:39:43,372 --> 00:39:46,114
we were persecuted.
810
00:39:48,009 --> 00:39:50,409
Circumstances became extreme.
811
00:39:52,230 --> 00:39:54,923
The anti-augmentation
laws seemed to give people
812
00:39:54,948 --> 00:39:58,300
freedom to act on
their worst impulses.
813
00:39:59,736 --> 00:40:01,781
First were the insults.
814
00:40:02,682 --> 00:40:03,758
"Augment."
815
00:40:03,783 --> 00:40:05,872
"Moddie."
816
00:40:05,897 --> 00:40:07,855
"Freak."
817
00:40:07,918 --> 00:40:10,013
There were stores that
wouldn't serve you
818
00:40:10,038 --> 00:40:11,976
if they'd heard
you'd been modified.
819
00:40:14,100 --> 00:40:15,833
Even the rumors
could be dangerous.
820
00:40:15,858 --> 00:40:18,904
I remember when
the attacks began.
821
00:40:18,929 --> 00:40:21,149
We feared for our lives.
822
00:40:22,619 --> 00:40:24,055
Go on.
823
00:40:24,178 --> 00:40:26,514
There was a fight
at school one day.
824
00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:30,478
One boy accused another
boy of being an Illyrian.
825
00:40:31,985 --> 00:40:33,422
I tried to stop it.
826
00:40:33,465 --> 00:40:35,598
My leg got broken.
827
00:40:35,623 --> 00:40:37,625
It was such a simple fix.
828
00:40:38,905 --> 00:40:41,236
So easy to treat
with modern medicine.
829
00:40:42,045 --> 00:40:44,091
But my parents wouldn't
take me to a hospital.
830
00:40:44,141 --> 00:40:46,306
They were afraid.
831
00:40:46,331 --> 00:40:50,683
Despite my modifications,
my leg became infected.
832
00:40:52,080 --> 00:40:53,690
If we hadn't found
and Illyrian doctor
833
00:40:53,715 --> 00:40:55,558
willing to see me in
the middle of the night,
834
00:40:55,583 --> 00:40:56,863
I would have died.
835
00:41:02,715 --> 00:41:05,383
I'm so sorry.
836
00:41:05,584 --> 00:41:08,152
Was this normal for
837
00:41:08,177 --> 00:41:11,326
such a common thing to
become life-threatening?
838
00:41:11,351 --> 00:41:13,524
It was for kids like me, yes.
839
00:41:13,549 --> 00:41:15,718
Civil unrest became so great
840
00:41:15,743 --> 00:41:19,138
the local government decided
to divide us into two cities:
841
00:41:19,163 --> 00:41:21,600
Illyrian and non-Illyrian.
842
00:41:22,906 --> 00:41:24,299
Thank you.
843
00:41:26,049 --> 00:41:29,376
My family, we went to
the non-Illyrian city.
844
00:41:31,011 --> 00:41:33,353
You see, some of us could pass.
845
00:41:35,380 --> 00:41:37,339
We could blend in,
846
00:41:37,364 --> 00:41:39,149
so we did.
847
00:41:40,318 --> 00:41:43,930
We left everyone else
behind. Our families.
848
00:41:45,929 --> 00:41:47,974
Our friends.
849
00:41:48,018 --> 00:41:50,063
We left them all.
850
00:41:51,017 --> 00:41:53,019
I regret it to this day.
851
00:41:54,704 --> 00:41:56,662
I'm so sorry.
852
00:41:57,622 --> 00:41:58,884
And yet,
853
00:41:59,048 --> 00:42:02,153
after all of this strife,
854
00:42:02,178 --> 00:42:05,007
you still wanted to be
a Starfleet officer.
855
00:42:05,032 --> 00:42:06,854
Yes.
856
00:42:07,255 --> 00:42:10,020
One last question, Commander.
857
00:42:11,219 --> 00:42:14,056
How did Starfleet find out
that you were Illyrian?
858
00:42:15,025 --> 00:42:18,110
You managed to keep your status
a secret for so many years,
859
00:42:18,135 --> 00:42:20,006
it's surprising
they found out now.
860
00:42:20,050 --> 00:42:23,369
- I don't...
- Who turned you in to Starfleet?
861
00:42:23,394 --> 00:42:25,091
I remind you, you
are under oath.
862
00:42:25,116 --> 00:42:27,640
I caution you against
badgering your own witness.
863
00:42:27,665 --> 00:42:29,780
- Who turned you in?
- Counselor!
864
00:42:29,805 --> 00:42:30,849
I did.
865
00:42:33,796 --> 00:42:35,722
I turned myself in.
866
00:42:41,670 --> 00:42:42,758
Why?
867
00:42:43,822 --> 00:42:46,042
Why would you risk your career,
868
00:42:46,067 --> 00:42:48,635
the life you built?
869
00:42:48,731 --> 00:42:52,169
I was so sick of living a lie,
870
00:42:52,213 --> 00:42:54,954
of pretending to be
someone I wasn't.
871
00:42:56,129 --> 00:42:58,016
I wanted my crew...
872
00:42:58,915 --> 00:43:02,440
I wanted my crew to know
me for who I really was.
873
00:43:02,465 --> 00:43:06,251
I thought maybe if they did,
I would finally be safe.
874
00:43:08,660 --> 00:43:12,538
And Starfleet would finally
understand Illyrian's better.
875
00:43:12,563 --> 00:43:14,914
So, after all of it...
876
00:43:16,668 --> 00:43:19,432
you still wanted
Starfleet to accept you.
877
00:43:19,457 --> 00:43:20,893
Why?
878
00:43:20,918 --> 00:43:22,702
When I was five or six,
879
00:43:22,727 --> 00:43:25,594
I remember a Starfleet
crew visited.
880
00:43:27,422 --> 00:43:30,180
They were all so...
881
00:43:30,324 --> 00:43:32,717
different from one another.
882
00:43:32,742 --> 00:43:35,745
So many crew members
from so many planets.
883
00:43:35,770 --> 00:43:39,296
It was beautiful. I thought
884
00:43:39,321 --> 00:43:43,064
if all those people
from all those worlds
885
00:43:43,115 --> 00:43:46,597
can work together, side by side,
886
00:43:47,062 --> 00:43:49,226
maybe I could, too.
887
00:43:49,270 --> 00:43:53,274
Maybe I could be a part of
something bigger than myself.
888
00:43:53,317 --> 00:43:56,755
Starfleet is not a
perfect organization,
889
00:43:56,799 --> 00:43:58,931
but it strives to be.
890
00:43:58,975 --> 00:44:02,021
And I believe it could be.
891
00:44:03,022 --> 00:44:05,568
You're saying that...
892
00:44:06,374 --> 00:44:09,551
is why you turned yourself in?
893
00:44:09,594 --> 00:44:11,074
Yes.
894
00:44:11,117 --> 00:44:14,599
Because you believe
in Starfleet.
895
00:44:15,529 --> 00:44:16,786
Yes.
896
00:44:18,259 --> 00:44:21,605
Ad astra per aspera.
897
00:44:25,462 --> 00:44:27,551
Thank you, Commander.
898
00:44:28,494 --> 00:44:30,716
No further questions.
899
00:44:42,497 --> 00:44:45,064
That was a very emotional story.
900
00:44:46,407 --> 00:44:49,323
However, emotions
are irrelevant.
901
00:44:49,526 --> 00:44:51,462
Facts are not.
902
00:44:51,487 --> 00:44:54,627
On what date did
Captain Christopher Pike
903
00:44:54,652 --> 00:44:56,480
learn the truth about your
904
00:44:56,505 --> 00:44:58,420
genetically modified status?
905
00:44:58,953 --> 00:45:00,428
Objection.
906
00:45:00,453 --> 00:45:02,777
This trial is about
Una Chin-Riley,
907
00:45:02,802 --> 00:45:04,081
not her captain.
908
00:45:04,106 --> 00:45:06,064
What we have here is
not just one officer's
909
00:45:06,089 --> 00:45:08,047
violation of the law.
910
00:45:08,072 --> 00:45:10,422
This incident is evidence of
breakdown of chain of command
911
00:45:10,447 --> 00:45:12,415
on board the
starship Enterprise,
912
00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:15,145
starting with its captain.
913
00:45:15,170 --> 00:45:18,353
If Captain Pike was aware
of Una Chin-Riley's fraud
914
00:45:18,378 --> 00:45:22,207
prior to her arrest, and
did not notify Starfleet,
915
00:45:22,232 --> 00:45:24,452
then what we have
here is not fraud,
916
00:45:24,477 --> 00:45:26,305
but conspiracy.
917
00:45:27,401 --> 00:45:30,578
Since my co-counsel
neglected to elicit testimony
918
00:45:30,603 --> 00:45:32,213
from the parties involved,
919
00:45:32,238 --> 00:45:34,458
I will ask the
commander directly.
920
00:45:36,133 --> 00:45:40,093
When did Captain Pike
become aware of your status?
921
00:45:47,823 --> 00:45:49,690
I will also remind the commander
922
00:45:49,715 --> 00:45:51,891
that she is under oath.
923
00:45:52,044 --> 00:45:53,998
And I reminder her that
924
00:45:54,023 --> 00:45:56,546
she does not want
to perjure herself
925
00:45:56,571 --> 00:45:58,834
as I ask one more time,
926
00:45:58,877 --> 00:46:01,400
when did Christopher
Pike first learn
927
00:46:01,425 --> 00:46:03,882
that you were an Illyrian?
928
00:46:11,140 --> 00:46:13,490
Stardate 1224.3
929
00:46:17,069 --> 00:46:18,506
Four months.
930
00:46:18,916 --> 00:46:21,857
Well before your arrest.
931
00:46:22,367 --> 00:46:24,076
For four months,
932
00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:25,991
the captain of the Enterprise
933
00:46:26,016 --> 00:46:27,916
engaged in a conspiracy
934
00:46:27,941 --> 00:46:30,918
to conceal the Illyrian
Una Chin-Riley.
935
00:46:32,515 --> 00:46:34,703
I have no further questions.
936
00:46:47,609 --> 00:46:49,894
The defense wants
you to ignore the facts
937
00:46:49,919 --> 00:46:51,529
in favor of emotion.
938
00:46:51,554 --> 00:46:55,343
But the only matter of
import today is the law.
939
00:46:55,368 --> 00:46:57,326
Una Chin-Riley
940
00:46:57,351 --> 00:46:59,440
broke the law and lied about it,
941
00:46:59,465 --> 00:47:02,642
as her own testimony
has proven. Further,
942
00:47:02,667 --> 00:47:05,212
her actions will likely
lead to a court martial of
943
00:47:05,237 --> 00:47:07,848
one of Starfleet's most
decorated officers.
944
00:47:08,120 --> 00:47:10,688
She is clearly
toxic to Starfleet
945
00:47:10,732 --> 00:47:13,645
in both action an inaction.
946
00:47:13,670 --> 00:47:15,716
Therefore, the only
logical response
947
00:47:15,741 --> 00:47:19,745
is to find the defendant
guilty of all charges.
948
00:47:27,488 --> 00:47:30,731
Captain Batel, are
you familiar with
949
00:47:30,756 --> 00:47:33,754
the Starfleet Code 8514?
950
00:47:35,052 --> 00:47:36,575
I am.
951
00:47:37,019 --> 00:47:39,238
Would you mind reading
that code for the court?
952
00:47:43,397 --> 00:47:45,916
"In extraordinary
and extreme circumstances,
953
00:47:45,941 --> 00:47:48,073
"if the following
conditions are met:
954
00:47:48,117 --> 00:47:51,911
any person
fleeing persecution...
955
00:47:51,936 --> 00:47:53,721
We were persecuted.
956
00:47:53,746 --> 00:47:55,771
I remember when
the attacks began.
957
00:47:56,597 --> 00:47:59,190
"or fearing for their
life due to political
958
00:47:59,215 --> 00:48:00,363
"or religious beliefs,
959
00:48:00,388 --> 00:48:01,869
"cultural engagements or
960
00:48:01,894 --> 00:48:04,064
"biological truths may,
961
00:48:04,089 --> 00:48:07,832
seek safety
within Starfleet...
962
00:48:07,857 --> 00:48:10,555
I thought maybe if they did,
I would finally be safe.
963
00:48:10,580 --> 00:48:11,842
We feared for our lives.
964
00:48:13,550 --> 00:48:15,900
"upon revealing
themselves to authorities
965
00:48:15,925 --> 00:48:17,230
"and making a request,
966
00:48:17,255 --> 00:48:18,691
"may be granted asylum.
967
00:48:19,597 --> 00:48:21,251
I turned myself in.
968
00:48:21,276 --> 00:48:23,974
I wanted my crew to know
me for who I really was.
969
00:48:23,999 --> 00:48:26,524
"Starfleet captains
must exercise discretion
970
00:48:26,549 --> 00:48:29,422
"in judgement when
offering asylum.
971
00:48:29,453 --> 00:48:31,929
"Status is confirmed
by a Starfleet tribunal
972
00:48:31,954 --> 00:48:33,999
or designated authority."
973
00:48:37,342 --> 00:48:40,747
Fearing for their life.
974
00:48:40,935 --> 00:48:44,460
One may seek safety
within Starfleet
975
00:48:44,932 --> 00:48:47,815
and request asylum.
976
00:48:49,248 --> 00:48:51,816
Starfleet has a long tradition
977
00:48:51,841 --> 00:48:54,496
of performing rescue missions.
978
00:48:54,591 --> 00:48:56,637
How many distressed peoples
979
00:48:56,662 --> 00:48:58,838
has Starfleet aided?
980
00:48:58,863 --> 00:49:01,213
How many lives saved?
981
00:49:02,572 --> 00:49:04,444
Una Chin-Riley knew this.
982
00:49:04,487 --> 00:49:07,403
She believed in the
best of Starfleet,
983
00:49:07,428 --> 00:49:09,888
and that through it she
could find salvation
984
00:49:09,913 --> 00:49:14,570
from the hardships and
danger of her everyday life.
985
00:49:14,595 --> 00:49:16,406
Danger she faced
986
00:49:16,431 --> 00:49:19,478
just for being born an Illyrian.
987
00:49:19,730 --> 00:49:22,909
Dangers born of prejudice,
988
00:49:23,038 --> 00:49:26,737
spurred on by laws
against people like her.
989
00:49:28,243 --> 00:49:30,506
But through her hardships,
990
00:49:30,698 --> 00:49:33,265
Una saw the stars.
991
00:49:33,676 --> 00:49:36,305
She joined Starfleet
because she believed
992
00:49:36,330 --> 00:49:37,853
it was the only thing
993
00:49:37,878 --> 00:49:40,054
that could save her life.
994
00:49:40,199 --> 00:49:43,709
She fled persecution,
and within Starfleet
995
00:49:43,734 --> 00:49:45,866
she sought safety.
996
00:49:45,891 --> 00:49:48,647
And then, by turning herself in,
997
00:49:48,672 --> 00:49:50,805
Una fulfilled the third
998
00:49:50,848 --> 00:49:53,285
and final requirement
for asylum.
999
00:49:57,681 --> 00:50:00,285
She asked for it
1000
00:50:00,496 --> 00:50:03,934
and Captain Pike granted it.
1001
00:50:03,992 --> 00:50:06,951
Like all good
Starfleet captains,
1002
00:50:06,995 --> 00:50:10,085
including Admiral
April on Perrican,
1003
00:50:10,110 --> 00:50:12,678
Na'rel and Man-us 2,
1004
00:50:12,703 --> 00:50:15,488
he exercised his judgement
1005
00:50:15,513 --> 00:50:18,081
and gave her asylum.
1006
00:50:20,068 --> 00:50:23,655
All this tribunal
needs to do now...
1007
00:50:24,692 --> 00:50:28,696
is confirm that status
to absolve them both.
1008
00:50:35,327 --> 00:50:37,982
Do you know why I love the law?
1009
00:50:38,026 --> 00:50:41,581
Because a law is not
1010
00:50:41,606 --> 00:50:44,198
a mirror to society.
1011
00:50:44,223 --> 00:50:47,444
A law is an ideal.
1012
00:50:47,621 --> 00:50:50,798
A beacon to remind us
1013
00:50:50,823 --> 00:50:53,581
how to be our better selves.
1014
00:50:53,606 --> 00:50:56,719
And you have the
opportunity today
1015
00:50:56,744 --> 00:50:59,877
to do just that.
1016
00:51:01,469 --> 00:51:04,083
Mr. Pasalk has made
this case about the law,
1017
00:51:04,108 --> 00:51:05,588
and I agree, it is.
1018
00:51:05,613 --> 00:51:09,128
By his own argument,
we cannot ignore that
1019
00:51:09,153 --> 00:51:13,036
Code 8514 is also law.
1020
00:51:13,061 --> 00:51:16,659
All I am asking you
1021
00:51:16,684 --> 00:51:19,232
to do today
1022
00:51:19,257 --> 00:51:22,175
is to be your better selves
1023
00:51:22,200 --> 00:51:24,420
and enforce the law
1024
00:51:24,463 --> 00:51:26,074
that favors my client
1025
00:51:26,117 --> 00:51:27,974
with the same dispassion
1026
00:51:27,998 --> 00:51:30,962
as the laws that
would exclude her.
1027
00:51:31,204 --> 00:51:33,249
Years ago...
1028
00:51:36,024 --> 00:51:38,461
the ideals of Starfleet
1029
00:51:38,583 --> 00:51:40,733
called a young girl
1030
00:51:40,758 --> 00:51:43,325
from the far side of
the galaxy to service.
1031
00:51:45,963 --> 00:51:48,836
Find those ideals
inside yourself.
1032
00:51:50,033 --> 00:51:51,948
Grant Una Chin-Riley
1033
00:51:51,973 --> 00:51:55,541
the asylum she was
so clearly seeking.
1034
00:52:05,330 --> 00:52:07,021
I think we
could all agree
1035
00:52:07,046 --> 00:52:09,266
that the issue of
genetic engineering
1036
00:52:09,291 --> 00:52:11,659
is a nuanced one.
1037
00:52:11,684 --> 00:52:15,819
The laws prohibiting it
exist for very good reasons.
1038
00:52:15,863 --> 00:52:18,169
And regulations must persist
1039
00:52:18,213 --> 00:52:20,693
so we may not one day
face another crisis
1040
00:52:20,737 --> 00:52:22,870
like the Eugenics Wars.
1041
00:52:22,913 --> 00:52:25,437
But this court also believes
1042
00:52:25,481 --> 00:52:29,518
that these reasons cannot
and do not allow us to treat
1043
00:52:29,543 --> 00:52:33,924
every individual
augment, Illyrian,
1044
00:52:33,968 --> 00:52:37,885
or other persons with
modified DNA the same.
1045
00:52:37,928 --> 00:52:39,843
Lines must be drawn,
1046
00:52:39,887 --> 00:52:42,977
but they must also
shift when necessary.
1047
00:52:43,020 --> 00:52:45,196
Perhaps someday Starfleet
and the Federation
1048
00:52:45,221 --> 00:52:48,348
may change its views, but today
1049
00:52:48,373 --> 00:52:50,019
I'm afraid all we
can do is consider
1050
00:52:50,044 --> 00:52:51,656
what the defense has asked.
1051
00:52:51,681 --> 00:52:53,857
That we judge the defendant's
1052
00:52:53,901 --> 00:52:56,357
specific case
1053
00:52:56,466 --> 00:53:00,383
and unique circumstances
independently.
1054
00:53:00,593 --> 00:53:02,247
And in that,
1055
00:53:02,272 --> 00:53:04,727
we grant the defendant's
request for asylum
1056
00:53:04,752 --> 00:53:07,063
and find Una Chin-Riley
1057
00:53:07,088 --> 00:53:10,656
not guilty of all charges.
1058
00:53:22,998 --> 00:53:25,217
First officer on deck.
1059
00:53:35,768 --> 00:53:38,162
- You set me up.
- How so?
1060
00:53:38,206 --> 00:53:40,556
You figured it all
out. My admission.
1061
00:53:40,599 --> 00:53:42,397
What would happen when
you put me on the stand.
1062
00:53:42,421 --> 00:53:44,423
- You knew all of it.
- No.
1063
00:53:44,448 --> 00:53:46,102
Not all of it.
1064
00:53:46,170 --> 00:53:48,800
Thank you for saving my life.
1065
00:53:48,825 --> 00:53:51,523
Hey, what are friends for?
1066
00:53:51,567 --> 00:53:53,656
Yeah.
1067
00:53:54,544 --> 00:53:57,765
I'm sorry we didn't
do more for Illyrians.
1068
00:53:57,790 --> 00:54:00,071
This was a technicality.
1069
00:54:00,181 --> 00:54:02,139
It's a start.
1070
00:54:23,226 --> 00:54:25,773
As you all know, I am not
1071
00:54:25,798 --> 00:54:27,451
the biggest fan of Starfleet.
1072
00:54:29,956 --> 00:54:33,655
But I am looking
at a starship crew
1073
00:54:33,739 --> 00:54:37,352
that proudly serves under
an Illyrian commander.
1074
00:54:39,702 --> 00:54:43,184
So, like I said...
1075
00:54:43,393 --> 00:54:45,864
it's a start.
1076
00:54:49,755 --> 00:54:51,585
Energize.
1077
00:54:56,023 --> 00:54:57,807
Hey.
1078
00:54:57,850 --> 00:55:00,679
- La'An.
- Welcome home, Chief.
1079
00:55:00,704 --> 00:55:02,706
Place wasn't the
same without you.
1080
00:55:05,162 --> 00:55:08,339
If you're all here,
who's flying the ship?
1081
00:55:08,383 --> 00:55:11,821
Oh, the thing
practically flies itself.
1082
00:55:11,864 --> 00:55:13,692
Back to your
stations, all of you.
1083
00:55:36,889 --> 00:55:38,326
Good to have you
back, Number One.
1084
00:55:38,615 --> 00:55:40,661
Good to be back, Captain.
1085
00:55:40,711 --> 00:55:45,261
