Previously on Star Trek: Discovery

I'm not sure how to be
around you anymore.

Some things are hard to
move past, for both of us.

Yeah, maybe we haven't
wanted to say that out loud.

Are we saying it now?

I think we are.

So, I'll ask for you to do
one-on-ones with the crew.

No need. I've read their files.

I'd like you to connect
with them in person.

I think we can both agree that

connection is not exactly
where my skill set lies.

Connection isn't a skill, it's a choice.

It's good to meet you, jinaal.

I'm captain Burnham
of the USS discovery.

And now you're here for the clue.

Yes. You have it?

No.

But I can take you to it.

These are the coordinates
for the next clue.

They are.

You find the progenitors' tech?

No, but we found a
clue to where it's hidden.

Quest continues.

If we run into I'ak and
moll, it won't be pretty.

Got the latinum?

A bag?

What is this, amateur hour?

You're supposed to stack
it so it's easier to count.

- It's all we could do last-minute.
- Yeah.

This'll cover the original
cost, but, the price

of the item has gone up.
Consider it an expensive...

Expensive lesson in how to do business.

See, we heard you might
try something like this,

so we came prepared.

We soaked the latinum
in fop'yano poison.

The kind that you sold
to the emerald chain

to use on people like me.

Consider it an expensive lesson in how

not to do business.

Moll.

What if that doesn't work?

It will.

And once we're ahead of discovery,

we can get the next clue and the next.

We've got this.

I just feel like...

Sometimes the walls are
closing in on us, you know?

We are gonna find the progenitors' tech.

And no more bounty on our heads.

No more looking over our shoulders.

No more running.

We'll be free.

Free sounds good.

We should go.

Discovery won't be at trill much longer.

I'm really happy we
can stay friends, adira.

Me too. I'd miss you too much otherwise.

So, I'll see you in a few monts

when I graduate to the
next level of training?

- Yeah, I wouldn't miss it.
- Great.

- Talk soon. Bye.
- Bye.

Adira, could you re-adjust

the deuterium manifold on deck nine?

It shifted again after the jum.

Yes. On my way.

Well, what do you mean
there's nothing here?

Aren't we at the coordinates
jinaal gave us on trill?

Yes, captain, but every
scan I've run... polar on,

- multiphasic, ion trace have...
- Have all turned up nothing.

Not as much as a starbase within
two-and-a-half parsecs of here.

Well, let's keep looking.

Lieutenant Linus, send a team

of dots to do a more
in-depth scan of the area.

Aye, captain.

And what about I'ak and moll

any sign of them yet?

Trill's not reporting anything.

Well, contact them again.

They should have been there hours ago

when the captain was
down on the planet.

We need to be alert. It's not like them

- to fall behind in a race.
- Captain, if I may.

There is logic to I'ak and
moll laying low for now.

If I were them,

I'd let discovery lead us to the next clue,

keep us guessing in the meantime.

If they were following us,

we'd have evidence of
that right here, right now,

but we don't.

So, let's stick to the facts, commander.

What we know, not what we guess.

Commander Rhys, take the conn.

Can I speak to you in
my ready room, please?

Unacceptable.

Not how we do things here.

- Trying to get them to focus.
- It's important to me

that the crew be engaged and involved

and encouraged to speak freely.

Okay, then, speaking freely,

I think that's a mistake.

This is a red directive mission, captain.

There's no time to be collaborative.

There's time to be
decisive and disciplined.

You don't think my crew is disciplined?

I think they're too
familiar, too comfortable

with each other and, frankly, with you.

That familiarity helped us
save the federation, the galaxy,

and you.

I'm not doubting their resumés or yours,

but none of you had to learn the lessons

that we did during the burn.

Things changed like that,

and if I listened to every opinion

and cheered on
anyone who had an idea,

me and my crew would have
been dead a hundred times over.

You're in a state of flux right now, rayner,

- I get that.
- Come on.

Spare me the "I get you" bullshit.

I should have...

That was over the line.

Captain.

I'm sorry.

I understand change is hard for anyone.

But rayner... The burn is over.

You're on my ship now.

I expect you to do things my way.

And if my way is better?

I won't debate it with you, commander.

You clearly have yet to see the value...

Captain, I'm picking up some

odd energy fluctuations.
And something just broadcast

an unauthorized signal from the ship.

On our way.

What the... What happened?
Are we under attack?

Bridge, report.

Transporter's not working.

Bridge?

Turbolift. Come on.

Saru?

Tilly?

What?

What the...

We're in a wormhole.

No, it can't be.

What was that red thing?

Where are we?

Not where. When.

What?

That's the red angel.

That was me.

This is the day we
came to the 32nd century.

We've gone back in time
to when you went forward

to the future? That's a little confusing.

I guess it explains

why our transporter
badges aren't working.

But how the hell did we get here?

I don't know.

We're not supposed to be here.

They can't see us
here. They can't see us.

Come on, come on. Let's go.

Okay, think, think. What
could have happened?

Maybe we hit a time eddy.

Or maybe jinaal's
coordinates weren't as empty

as we thought?

Computer may be able to... Damn it.

Can't help us.

This is commander saru.

All decks prepare for impact.

We should survive.

Detmer's about to
crash-land on a planet.

Good, I won't waste any
time worrying about it then.

The flashing lights.

That happened last time.

Okay, we're back in the ready room,

but it's changed again.

What?

I thought the inspection
wasn't until tomorrow.

Surprise.

Well... We're ready, of course.

I'll let the foreman know you're here.

Maybe go to deck seven last, though.

Tell your foreman that's
where we're headed next.

Fail to prepare, prepare to fail, son.

Nice one.

I hate that saying.

We're in dry dock,

when discovery was first being built.

Wow.

So, we haven't just gone back in time.

- We're jumping through it.
- Right.

Saru called himself commander.

Everyone on the bridge,
that worker just now

they're all living in the moment,

but we're not being affected at all.

What if this isn't temporal?

What if this is some
kind of neural weapon?

Someone messing with our brains?

Yeah, but zora didn't
register any vessels in the area

before this happened.

What was happening
when this first started?

Commander owosekun called up,

reported a energy fluctuation.

And then we tried to beam to the bridge.

That's why whatever
this is isn't impacting us.

It hit the ship at the exact
moment we were beaming.

Right.

And here we go again.

We keep coming back
to the same position.

This is right where we were
when we first tried to transport.

What? There's a massive
war going on out there.

When is this?

Stardate 1051.8. What is that?

It's the battle with control.

Yeah, that was a tough one.

Whatever you said about
beaming, whatever hit the ship

right then, could explain

why we keep resetting
to these same spots.

Can't be a time eddy.

We would have seen that on scans.

Doesn't feel like a neural attack.

So, it has to be something with the ship.

What are we missing?

Shit. It's a time bug.

What?

Krenim chronophage.

We call them time bugs. You
can find them in the black market

left over from the temporal war.

They're designed to
paralyze an enemy ship

by randomly cycling them through time.

- How long do they last?
- Weeks, months,

until the little suckers run out of juice.

That's why we can't beam anywhere.

The whole point is to keep us stuck.

This has to be moll and I'ak.

How the hell did they get it on board?

They must have made it to trill somehow

and crossed paths with one of you.

Owosekun did say there was
an unauthorized broadcast.

Right, that'd be the location beacon.

So, they know exactly where we are

and where the next clue is.

Rhys was right.

We cannot let them get what
the progenitors left behind.

So, we have to find
and deactivate this bug.

My guess, it's in engineering,

but even if we do find it,
who knows how long we have.

Well, there must be a pattern
to the time cycle lengths.

If we use this to track
them, we figure it out.

Right now,

- we need to find stamets.
- What can he do?

Well, he lives outside of time
because of his tardigrade DNA.

Nevermind.

He should be within the cycle
lengths like everyone else,

but just as aware of it as we are.

He may have already figured it out.

Any idea where he'd be?

- Dr. Pollard, over here!
- What about the injured

- on deck 12?
- We'll get them stable,

we get them out. You got it?

On it.

Paul? What happened?

A bug, a scary bug.

Listen, please, I need
to get to engineering.

God!

- I forgot how bad this hurts.
- You've been impaled, Paul.

You should be in an induced coma.

No, no, no, no, no. No,
you can't do that. Zora?

Who is zora?

No, she doesn't exist yet.

- You're okay. I got you.
- No.

No, no. I-I need to get out of here.

I need to find a way out of this.

You're not going
anywhere. You need to rest.

No, Hugh, I need to help.

I-I might be the only one who can.

- It's okay.
- No, no, no. Please.

Cloak alert.

- What's happening?
- Not sure yet,

but I do know that last cycle lasted

twice as long as the one before it.

Hope this one's even longer.

Where's stamets today?

Considering the star date,
I'm guessing engineering.

Storage deck 13,

direct via service shaft upsilon.

Why are we taking a long-cut?

13 can access engineering
and it's usually empty.

- Temporal prime directive.
- Right. Any change in our past

- could alter our entire future.
- Exactly.

Then we can't let the ship's computer

know that we're here either.

This is after discovery'sretrofit,

so it'd be able to recognize
our biometric readings.

You got an override code for that?

Good thinking.

Thanks.

We just went to black alert.

What was the star date again?

Why, what happens?

Osyraa attacks discovery.

I need backup on 13!

Get a better helmet.

You're not discovery
crew. What's your name?

Commander... lock.

I'm on temporary assignment.

Thanks for the save.

- I owe you one.
- Yeah, well,

buy me a drink at red's. Vesper Martini.

Ice cold.

Only way to drink them.

Stay safe.

Steer clear of the bucket heads,

and don't worry. We'll get out of this.

So will your face.

All good with Reno?

Fine. Told her I was a temp.

What happened here?

No idea.

Looks like no one's been here in years.

Can't even get a star date.

Computer's glitching
like it's on its last legs.

Can you hear that?

Hello?

Captain? Is that you?

Or is this another dream?

Hi, zora.

It's not a dream.

You and the crew died decades ago.

Is this a dream?

No.

No, it's really me.

What year is this?

3218.

That's almost 30 years in the future.

What happened here, zora?

Most of my memory is... I'm sorry, I

I can't exactly recall.

But the outcome you
feared came to pass.

The progenitors' technology
fell into the wrong hands.

What's outside the view screen?

You died.

You all died.

Zora, show us what's out there.

Federation headquarters.

What's left of it.

By the time star fleet found discovery

and deactivated the
krenim chronophage,

it was too late.

L'ak and moll were too far ahead.

- Is that ship breen?
- Yes.

Somehow, they got the
progenitors' technology.

They launched a devastating
attack a few weeks after

we were rescued from the time cycling.

They must have been moll
and I'ak's highest bidders.

You know, when I first
walked onto this bridge,

it took every ounce of strength I had

not to turn around and run back off.

I respected star fleet too much

to believe I deserved to be
here after what I had done.

You're talking about the mutiny.

But look where you ended up.

You have to be the
only person in star fleet

to captain a ship that you
first boarded as a prisoner.

So... How'd you do it?

I never gave up.

Okay.

So, tracking the time cycles isn't enough.

Sample size is too small to get a pattern.

Even if we find the bug,

we won't be able to deactivate it.

Zora, any ideas?

Perhaps you need more data, captain.

What other variables are there?

Many, commander.

The ship's location, distance and speed.

- That's it, the speed.
- Why would that matter?

'Cause we're not just
traveling through time,

we're also traveling through space.

Sometimes fast, sometimes slow.

- We've been too linear.
- Exactly.

Zora, can you factor in discovery'sspeed

into the time cycle lengths
I've already recorded?

Yes. Time cycle lengths may
appear to be random at first,

but when mapped to
a space-time diagram

and expanded to higher dimensions,

a visual pattern emerges.

A conical wave.

It tells us how long we'll
have between time jumps.

And this is us right here.

So we'll know this works if the cycle

resets in ten seconds.

Here's hoping we land in an
era where stamets isn't dead.

Good luck, both of you.

You should be leaving in five, four, three,

- yes.
- Two... Please. Set things right again.

I'm waiting, Dr. Truffles.

You mean... Right, of course.

You need... for the...

The reference calculations
for the injector coil?

- Right.
- And I don't need anything.

You suggested

quite dramatically, if I might add

that I double-check
the reference numbers

of a fix that I've done a million times.

Yes! Yes, of course.

For the injector coil

that burned out during
the obd diagnostic.

Way back ten minutes ago.

Right. Well, yeah,
they're-they're right here.

Hey, so, you know,

sin-since I've got you
here and I'm not sure when

I'll get you again,

I thought I might get your take on,

a theoretical predicament
I've been mulling...

In-in case it ever came up.

Okay.

Say some temporal unpleasantness

were to hit the ship

to nullify it, I'd just need to

calibrate a chroniton stabilizer

to partition world lines

per scaravelli's constant, right?

Theoretically, yes,

so long as you factor
dimensional variations.

Are you stuck in a time
loop right now, stamets?

What?

No.

What?

Just messing with you.

Don't Bury your mind in
the abstract for too long.

You'll turn into a rothko painting.

Stamets.

Paul. Psst!

There's been a spore breach!

Evacuate now or-or mushrooms
will grow on your lungs.

- Yes, sir.
- Go, go!

Go!

How are you two even here?

We were beaming
when the cycling started.

And we get sent back to the
ready room after each reset.

I am so happy to see you I could cry.

I'm so happy to see you, too.

- Have you had any problems?
- No, no, no, no, no.

I've just been, repeating my past actions,

some of which have
been deeply unpleasant.

But I did get to see

Linus stuck in the replicator again.

Always a silver lining.

Yeah. Well, listen, we
know what's causing this.

It's some kind of a time bug.

Yeah, aptly named,
and I know where it is.

Yeah, it embedded itself in the
power distribution subsystem.

- Okay, so let's wrench it out...
- No, no, no.

Easy now, it's not that simple.

If removed improperly,

incalculable timelines
might converge at once,

ripping every molecule
around us into infinite directions,

over and over again, for eternity.

Sounds bad.

How do we fix it?

Well, we have to nullify its effects

with near-perfect precision.

And to do that, I need to be able to

understand the pattern of the resets.

But I've been so busy
trying not to change the future

that I haven't been able
to record the timings.

That's okay. Got them right here.

You do?

Takes a village.

Wow. This is great, yeah.

I can now build a chroniton stabilizer

and properly calibrate
it to stop this mess.

But I may just need some
help gathering equipment.

But the next cycle is
ending in ten seconds.

Okay, from now on, we meet
on deck 13 after each reset.

- Got it.
- And Paul, we saw

our possible future.
We can't let it happen.

We cannot fail.

Okay, so, the next
reset is in eight minutes.

So let's be quick.

The good news is that this
timeline has everything I need

to make a chroniton stabilizer.

- Great.
- And the bad news?

The main ingredient
is a field-disrupter fluid

that's in 32nd century holodecks. And...

At around this time, the
holodeck in my quarters

would have just been installed.

I can go so you don't
risk running into anyone.

The captain's quarters
are biometrically secured.

It has to be me.

Let's do it now.

Don't know when we'll be able to again.

- In that case, be safe.
- And fast.

Meet you in engineering.

Hey.

I thought you would
have been on the bridge.

I would have grabbed you a raktajino

on my way back from the gym.

Yeah, I had to pop back.

But I should go.

I've got to be somewhere in
four and a half minutes, so...

Very precise, Michael.

You know me. Precise.

You okay?

Yeah. No, yeah.

Yeah, I'm okay.

It's a lot of new responsibilities,

becoming the captain.

Trust your instinct.

You were made for this.

Change can be hard.

It's also the only way anything
meaningful can happen.

Can we talk about this later?

Yeah?

Love you.

I love you.

Nice and quiet.

He cleared it with another spore breach.

Yeah, I'm a little disturbed

that my crew doesn't
know that isn't a real thing.

Not much time. Next reset's 45 seconds.

Get out!

Okay.

This is ready. You do the honors.

Just put it right on the bug

and we should be back
in our real time in a flash.

Literally.

What the hell is that?

Well, it's a defense mechanism

of some kind. A temporal shield, I think.

Let's find out for sure.

That's bad.

Down to ten seconds.

We got to figure this out.

There's no way out of
this mess, otherwise.

- What have you got?
- Okay,

so, the spanner disintegrated

because time within the temporal shield

is moving at an ultra-accelerated rate.

So anything... including
us... ages to dust

before it can actually get to the bug itself.

- Can we turn the shield off?
- No.

But we can mitigate the effects

long enough to get in and deactivate it.

We just need to allow
relativity to take over.

By taking the ship to
maximum warp and then

breaking the warp bubble.

What?

Because that's what protects
us from the effects of relativity.

We'll drop out of warp so fast

that the time inside the
shield won't be able to keep up.

Essentially, whatever went
into the shield in that moment

would still age, just not instantly.

Well, wouldn't the whiplash kill us

or break the discovery
into a million pieces?

Well, the inertial dampeners
should prevent that. Hopefully.

It's a big move.

It'll definitely change the future.

No, not if we succeed.

Because changes to
any time that we're in

don't become permanent
until after the bug resets.

So, as long as we break the warp bubble

and turn the bug off
within the same time cycle,

everything will go back
to the way it was before.

So we only have one shot.

It's a risk we have to take.

Let's do it now.

This current time cycle is
the longest that we'll have

in a while... 14 minutes.

Who's on the bridge?

Okay, so it's, right now lorca's ship,

but he's on an away
mission with saru and Landry.

So the duty roster has Rhys on call.

And we've got detmer,
owosekun, Bryce, tilly,

chen, Sanchez,

and airiam.

Who's airiam?

She's an officer that didn't
make it to the future with us.

We can do this. We
just have to do it together.

But you're not their captain in this time.

You're a mutineer. They're
not gonna listen to you.

I'll have to find a way.

Okay, so, I'll modulate
the inertial dampeners

to keep the vibrations
from destroying the ship

once we've broken the warp bubble.

Guess I'm the lucky one sticking
his hand in the spider's nest.

Here. My communicator.
Just in case you need it.

I'll grab a spare.

We've got 13 minutes.
Let's make 'em count.

Computer, bridge.

Let me just say...

Red is definitely your color.

Thank you, Linus.

- Computer! Security!
- No!

Computer, belay that order.

Computer, deck 13.
We can talk down there.

Wow. Hi.

- Who the hell are you?
- Okay, okay.

It's complicated.

I was really hoping that
this wouldn't happen.

But things rarely go as
planned for us, am I right?

Okay. I'm just gonna... I'm
just gonna explain it then.

I am you from the future.

And we are stuck... i-i

I'm stuck cycling through time

because of a temporal weapon

that is currently in engineering.

I do have a plan to deactivate it,

but I have very limited time to do it,

so please just let me proceed,

and nothing needs to happen.

I don't know if you're
a shapeshifter or what.

But seeing the uniform,
you must think I'm an idiot

if you expect me to
believe that a mutineer

could ever end up with captain's pips.

No, no, no, no, no. Burnham,
you don't want to do that.

You don't want to do that.

Yeah. I really do.

Michael, I don't want to hurt you.

I know...

That it's hard to see a
path to the captain's seat

from where you are.

Even I forgot just how
hopeless this time felt.

It will be a long road.

But just

don't give up.

All right, I am very grumpy!

Just absolutely irate.

And I need to be left alone.

Yes, sir.

That was faster than
your spore breach excuse.

Yeah, I was, a tad more
surly pre-tardigrade DNA.

What's wrong?

No, it's just the, the inertial dampeners.

These 23rd century systems
are muddying up in my head

with the 32nd century systems

- we have now.
- Yeah?

Well, UN-muddy them.
We're not exactly made of time.

Okay, I need you to press
pause on the "gruff candor" routine.

You have no idea how
much pressure I'm under.

I thought that was your thing.

Brilliant scientist that
everything's hanging on.

Yeah, well, things change.

And not every problem

is something you can
figure out on your own.

You try being the one
to keep this ship together

so we don't die and-and erase everything

we've ever done from history.

And even if we make it back,

this progenitor technology
we're after... it's...

It's different. It's...

It's bigger than anything
I have taken on before.

You're not in any of it alone.

What can I do to help, right now?

Well, I-I do need to finish
calibrating the dampeners,

which is gonna take a little time, so...

If you could transfer control
of the plasma-coolant systems

- to that console?
- Got it.

Hey. Paul.

Let's show 'em how a couple of old dogs

still know the best tricks.

Lieutenant owosekun, run a multiphasic

- scan of the system's...
- Michael, what are you doing here?

Specialist Burnham. You're not
authorized to be on the bridge.

And why are you out of uniform?

And what did you do to your hair?

Love it.

This is gonna be hard
to understand at first,

and hard to accept,
but I am from the future.

- Security.
- No, w-wait, please.

Listen, it's not a... It's not a trick.

In our future, discovery is
on a very important mission

to find an immense power,
and we've been stalled

by a temporal weapon.
No need for that, owo. I took

a right cross from you in the
training room a few months back.

- I don't need that experience that again.
- Computer,

scan the ship for Michael
Burnham's life signs.

There are two identical sets

of Michael Burnham life signs aboard.

One is presently unconscious.

It's fine. It's fine. She's fine.

I nerve pinched her.

I just... I need you to listen to me.

There's a window on
deck six that you sit at

when you're having a bad day.

It's usually quieter than
the observation room.

You joined star fleet
because you weren't able to

save your friend when you were 15.

And you love comms because

you used to listen to old radio emissions

in space with your grandmother.

And you're a cadet who's frightened

of rooming with a mutineer.

You think I'm gonna
knife you in your sleep

because of your snoring.

I won't, by the way.

Thank you.

You say you're from the future.

- I am.
- And you're a star fleet captain?

I'm discovery'scaptain.

Okay.

Listen to me. I have seen
the federation collapse.

We all die because I
don't complete this mission.

And I am running out of time.

And, what, you just expect
us to believe all of this?

No. But airiam will believe me.

And I know you all trust her.

Why?

I'm sorry. I'm sorry to have to do this.

Speak, Michael.

I've seen how you die.

No, no, no, don't do that. No.

If you won't get her off the bridge, I will.

396 days from now...

Airiam, we miss you every day.

- Stop. Michael, St... Don't...
- Listen, I was there.

An AI program infects
your augmentation.

Enough.

You sacrifice everything for us.

That's a lie. Because we
would never let her do that.

There was no other way.

She'd fight it off.

Some fights can't be won.

She would never give up like that.

I would.

If it came to that, I would.

Phaser down, Bryce.

What do you need from us?

Everyone to their stations.

We are going to maximum warp.

She did it. She damn well did it.

She always does.

All right, I'm almost done.

Be ready with the chroniton stabilizer.

Attach it to the bug on my Mark.

Yep, all good.

Yeah, okay, we have three minutes left.

It'll be close, but I think we can make it.

Step away from the console.

Both of you.

We've reached maximum
speed, commander.

Ready to break the
warp bubble on your Mark.

Thank you, lieutenant.

Fascinating technology.

I wish I were going to be
around to learn more about it.

- I'm sorry.
- Don't be.

If things go the way you expect,

I won't remember anyway.

- Are they ready to go?
- They should be.

Rayner. Are we all set?

Actually, we have a problem.

Your past self doesn't
want to screw up again.

Lieutenant stamets,

I don't know what that
shapeshifter and her friend

have said to fool you,

but you are going to
shut down the warp core

and stop the ship. Now.

So,

- like I said, it's because of...
- I think you need

to come down here and
have a little talk with yourself.

I would never make it in time.

We have less than three minute.

Rayner, you have to handle this.

What-what I really need is for you

to let me go back to the console.

We're about to break the warp bubble.

Shut it down.

We won't ask again.

Last warning.

Gen.

We know each other.

Anyone could look up my first name.

Yeah, that's right. But I do know you.

Not now. In the future.

Now, you're lieutenant Rhys.

In my time, you're
lieutenant commander Rhys.

You're my tactical officer.

I'm tactical now, it's not a stretch.

Fair point. Okay, something personal.

You love ships. You love the cross field.

Who doesn't?

23rd century constitution class.

That's your favorite. You told me.

You love the curves.

And, lieutenant, I have to agree.

That is one damn fine vessel.

It's true.

You know, even if he is from
the future, it's too dangerous.

Don't make me shoot you, lieutenant.

Michael?

- They're working on it.
- We have

- 90 seconds left.
- If I let you

do this, discovery would be destroyed.

And if you don't, the burn won't end

or maybe the federation will.

You don't trust us. I get that.

And from what I know about you,

I wouldn't expect you to.

- You don't know anything about me.
- I know that the first day

that you stood on the bridge of this ship,

you wanted to run.

- Not another step.
- 'Cause you felt

you didn't deserve to be here.

You told me that.

Future you.

And seeing that was
only a few weeks ago,

I'm guessing you still do.

But let me tell you something.

You do deserve to be here.

Doing a damn good job,

and all this shit you're going through

is gonna make you
into one hell of a captain.

30 seconds, rayner.

For what it's worth, I
lost my family young, too.

And when that happens, there's only

one thing left you can trust.

And that's the voice in your head.

Yours is gonna take
you to some great places.

Keep trusting it. Especially now,

'cause I know what it's telling you.

Crazy as it seems, do the right thing,

and stand down.

Let us complete our mission.

Captain, go!

Do it now!

- Lieutenant.
- Aye, commander. Initiating break.

Exiting warp bubble
in five, four, three, two,

one.

Status report.

Inertial dampers are
holding, commander.

Do it now, rayner!

- Hang in there.
- Just a few more seconds.

We are back to the present.

We've only lost six hours.

Felt like six years.

The past hasn't been altered.

Nothing's changed.

We did it.

You okay? Looks really painful.

I'm good. I'm good.

You should go see
Dr. Culber, he can fix it.

It's not lost on me
how you pulled this off.

How we did.

You with the crew, me with Rhys.

And you knowing them...

That's what convinced them.

Familiarity can lead
to complacency as well.

You're right about that.

But we've somehow found
a way to use our connection

to keep us honest, make us better.

I should have explained that to you..

You show me more
Patience than I deserve.

Truth be told, I can be

stubborn.

Like you used to be.

You know, I still am.

Just in a different way.

Seeing her was a really good reminder.

You know?

We are always changing.

With everything that happens to us,

with the choices we make,
what's meaningful to us.

I get that being here and
the way you came here

is a big adjustment.

But I think we made a
pretty good team today.

Yeah.

We got the job done.

Now, how do you want to
go about explaining all this?

I think, with this crew, they'll get it

as soon as we say "time bug."

Would have been more satisfying

if I'd been able to squish you.

What is that thing?

Long story.

Would it have anything to do with

why I just blinked and six hours

have somehow gone by?

I'm honestly a little shocked

my past self believed you, captain.

Me too.

I can't believe I'd ever consider

breaking the warp bubble.

I'm just glad we didn't shoot you.

There was a time I would
have thought I deserved it.

Really glad we all came together.

Now, let's figure out what's
changed in the last six hours.

Can the dots tell us anything?

They did find something, captain:

A warp signature.

It matches with I'ak and moll's ship.

Seems like your theory was
a good one, commander Rhys.

Good work.

Where are moll and I'ak now?

That's the strange thing...
their trail disappears.

Like they came here
and now they're just gone.

Wherever they are, that's
where the next clue is.

And these are the right coordinates,

so it's a mystery indeed.

Are we ready?

Aye, captain.

Then let's get to solving it.
