Previously on Star Trek: Discovery:

You're losing sight of the real problem.

The anomaly.

I took what I learned
about the device at the center of the dma

and designed this,
a weapon capable of destroying it.

If we detonate this weapon,

we cannot control
the message we're sending.

If we make first contact peacefully,
carefully, we can.

I understand the appeal of tarka's plan.

But communication and diplomacy,

this is why the federation
has lasted for so long.

It'll save more lives in the long run.

All we know for sure is that the dma
will keep killing if we do nothing.

The power source that controls the device,

I need it to go home.

Book, no.

In order to build an isolytic weapon,
tarka needs isolynium.

That's a black-market element
that is not easy to track down.

I planted a tracker.

The signal can be detected
from multiple sectors away.

If the dma
is their mining equipment,

I can only imagine
what their weapons are like.

And if their power supply is threatened,

it will almost certainly be seen
as a hostile act.

Booker and tarka must be stopped.

I know.

Not as much isolynium
in here as I thought.

Will it be enough?

Federation banned it
for a good reason.

A little goes a long way.

Is it enough to destroy the dma?

And then some.

Careful.

Careful.

And we have ourselves a weapon.

How long till it's ready?

Five or six hours.

I need to calibrate
to destroy the dma controller

but protect the internal power source.

As long as I can generate
a null space bubble

within the isolytic detonation field,

the power source should be fine.

Just... speed it up.

She'll understand...

Once this is over.

They all will.

We're not gonna lose
anyone else to that thing.

Come.

Captain?

Finally got a response from book.

It's encrypted, so it can't be traced.

I thought you should see it.

Hey.

I went through all the data you sent.

Makes sense the dma could be
some kind of mining device

and all that's happened
is collateral damage.

But even if this is true,

it doesn't change
how many lives have been lost.

How many more will be lost
if we don't do something right now.

The dma could move again anytime.

We just can't afford to wait.

I love you, Michael.

I wish there was a way
to find a middle ground on this,

but... I just don't see it.

I'm sorry.

Goodbye.

Well...

I really thought
it would make a difference

if he knew it wasn't an attack.

Now if we don't stop him,
that could be what comes next.

It would seem
he has left us with no choice.

To say that this wasn't easy
would be an insult to understatement.

The optics, the complexities...

Sir.

Am I able to lead this mission or not?

Are you sure that that's what you want?

Well, president rillak had
quite a lot to say about this.

But she does understand
that discovery is the only ship

capable of reaching Mr. Booker on time,

and no one knows him better than you.

I also reminded her
that you've never let me down.

Thank you, sir.

Don't thank me yet.

The president remains concerned

that if things don't go smoothly,

you might be too emotionally compromised
to make the hard call.

I have the same concerns, so I'm gonna
send another officer with you.

Someone who will be empowered
to step in if needed

and issue the necessary orders
with the full backing of my authority.

With respect, admiral,

that is captain saru's job.

He, too, is close to book, is he not?

I understand this is awkward, captain.

May I ask who the officer is?

A friendly face,

which I hope
will make it easier on everyone.

Commander, will you please join us?

Captain.

Commander nhan.

- It's good to see you.
- You too.

Sir, I have to say,
if the concern is my connection to book,

nhan and I go way back.

I'm aware.

But she's also a barzan,

and there's a reason so many of her world
serve in the security forces.

Duty above all.

I'll give you two a minute.

I, uh...

I'd only met book in passing,

but he sounds like a good man.

I'm sorry it's come to this.

Thank you for that, nhan.

So when did you join federation security?

I thought you were still living on barzan.

I was, but after completing
the seed-vault mission,

I ended up not staying too long.

Upgraded my breathers though.

Real eyes, real you.

Were you able to find your family line
and connect with them?

Uh, yeah.

Didn't work out.

And security asked me
to lead a clean-up task force

against the emerald chain.

Covert ops, I couldn't tell anyone.

I read the reports.

Bloody skirmishes in the outer sectors.

This isn't the way I wanted to come back.

But I figured better me
than someone you don't know.

I'm glad it's you.

Mr. Saru.

I hope I'm not disturbing you.

Not at all. It is always
a pleasure to hear from you.

Well, I wonder if I may ask a favor.

On ni'var,

I joined you
in a thresh-Tor kashek meditation.

I found it greatly helpful
in settling my mind.

I could use such help now.

Of course.

Your hands.

Breathe deeply.

You are having difficulty focusing.

I am distracted, yes.

The mission to stop Mr. Booker

will be a most unfortunate undertaking.

Indeed, it will.

But I sense that is not all.

You are insightful, as ever.

My ward, su'kal,

he is deeply worried about the anomaly.

I do not know how to comfort him.

Of course, at such a dire time,

these personal feelings
are of little import.

Such feelings are always of import.

May I suggest,
when formal meditation proves challenging,

I find the peaceful routines of daily life
and the joyful connection therein

can help reestablish inner balance.

A walk, perhaps.

Or a shared meal between friends.

I would be pleased to join you,
if you'd like.

.I will...

Consider that.

Thank you, madam president.

Of course.

Good luck, Mr. Saru.

The captain is on her way.

Let us prepare for departure.

Can't believe we're actually doing this.

Book hasn't exactly
given us much of an option.

He thinks he's doing the right thing.
A lot of people agree.

Whatever one's opinions,

we all have our orders.

Hey, look who's back.

You're federation security now?

- Damn.
- You look great.

- So good to see you.
- This is a wonderful surprise, commander.

Thank you, sir.

I've really missed all of you.

And feel free to ignore me.

I'm just observing.

Seeing how the pros do it.

No. They should know.

Commander nhan is here

because of my personal connection
to this mission.

We need to stop book and tarka.

And she's going to help
make sure the job is done right.

I would have made the same choice...

If I were in the admiral's shoes.

This isn't an easy mission.

Not for any of us.

But it is critical that we succeed.

Commander owosekun, on-screen.

The tracker in book's ship tells us
that they're here,

hiding in this uninhabited rogue planet.

We believe they're finishing construction
on the isolytic weapon.

We'll have the element of surprise.

We need to use it well.

If they manage to jump into the dma
before we detain them,

pursuit will become much more dangerous.

Black alert.

Activate cloak.

Let's fly.

Status report.

Book's ship is inside a cavity,
4000 meters in.

No sensors or security
around the outside perimeter.

Okay.

Let's get into position.

Take us as close as you can, commander.

Aye, captain. Coming in.

Stopping in three...

Two...

One.

We're ready.

Bringing book's ship
on-screen, captain.

Mr. Saru, commander nhan,
in my ready room.

Have Dr. Culberjoin.

Book's ship has
a built-in security disruption field,

so we can't beam directly on board,

but a cloaked shuttle can slip in
close to this maintenance hatch.

That'll be our entry point.

Respectfully, I'm not sure
you should be leading this mission.

I wasn't planning to.

Mr. Saru will be taking point.

Dr. Culber will be joining
with commander Rhys,

and commander Bryce will pilot.

What about Bryce's work
for Dr. Kovich?

We still need to make first contact.

I'll have zora keep looking
for communication frequencies

that can pass
through the galactic barrier.

Commander Bryce
will have plenty to analyze

when he's back from the mission.

Mr. Saru, please take her through it.

Of course, captain.

We will use
a multi-phasic signal discriminator

to override external proximity sensors

and gain entrance before Mr. Booker
and tarka are notified of our arrival.

Once we make our way to the bridge,

Dr. Culber will help deescalate
the situation so we may take the ship.

Book is acting out of anger and grief.

He's doing what he thinks is right,
but he's not unreasonable.

Tarka's the wild card here.

We will have our phasers with us,
but set to stun.

Only to be used if necessity requires.

I know you'll make the right call.

Be safe.

Three thousand meters and closing.

Book will be locked up for life.

He stole classified tech.

He's about to use an isolytic weapon.

Because the federation
isn't acting fast enough.

You don't know
what it's like to lose everything.

- Want us to launch an attack?
- I'm not saying we should attack...

Stop comparing pain, man...

Gentlemen.
You are here to execute your orders,

however you may feel about them,
or one another, in this moment.

Listen.

This is tough for everyone.

And we all have different views
on what book's done,

but we're here to fix this.

And that's what we're gonna do. Together.

Okay?

Thank you, Dr. Culber.

Prepare the shuttle for docking,
commander Rhys.

Commander Bryce, take us in.

- Aye, Mr. Saru.
- Aye, Mr. Saru.

Protective shielding deployed.

We 're now at full stop,
2 meters from the maintenance hatch.

Engaging airlock field.

Commander owosekun,
isolate the shuttle's cloaking signature.

Aye, captain.

Shuttle soft dock is complete, captain.

No response from book's proximity sensors.

They don't seem to know we're here.

Proceed, Mr. Saru.

Commander Rhys,
prepare the signal discriminator.

You good?

Captain, something's not right.

Disco 2, report. Mr. Saru?

Something is on the shuttle, captain.

Like, all over the shuttle.

I've never heard
an alarm like this on my ship.

It's our new defense system.

It was just a little something
I threw together on our way to porathia.

Without telling me?

We were buying banned weapons tech
from an undennorld market.

It's an intrusion warning.

It's one of discovery's shuttles.

Michael must've slipped
a tracker on the isolynium.

- Did you know his ship can do that?
- No.

Commander owosekun,
can you beam them back?

I can't. Too much interference
from the disruption field.

- We're losing comms, captain.
- Saru, you need to abort.

Understood, captain.

Commander Bryce,
get us back to discovery.

I'm trying, sir.

You need to stop it.

- They'll be killed.
- I designed the system to be autonomous.

They'll be dead
before I can reprogram the first layer.

Come on! We gotta do something.

We're stuck. I can't disengage.

Structural integrity compromised.

Fire an emp charge through the hull.

It might slow it down enough
for the shuttle to break free.

Got it.

Owosekun,
how much time do they have left?

Hull integrity down to 10%.

Oxygen levels are dropping,
captain.

Discovery shuttle, ready thrusters
to blast yourselves free.

- Book?
- Captain,

there's a massive electromagnetic surge
coming from book's ship.

- Saru, maximum thrusters. Now!
- Go, Mr. Bryce.

Hull breach imminent.

- Saru?
- We're trying, captain.

Come on. Get out of there.

- Can you get a lock now?
- I'm working on it, captain.

The shuttle's breaking apart.

Owosekun!

Almost got them!

Is everyone all right?

We are, indeed.

Thank you all for your assistance.

Okay. Let's get back to stations.

Commander Bryce, let me know
what you find with Dr. Kovich.

Aye, captain.

Captain, we just lost tracker signal.

That's probably because they found it.

Did everyone make it off in time?

- Book, listen...
- I'm sorry, Michael, I have a job to do.

They jumped, captain. He's gone.

Damn it.

They're going to the dma.

Then so are we.

We cannot allow them
to destroy that controller.

We cannot let our first contact
with species ten-c

be an act of aggression.

Not if we want peace.

We have no idea where the controller is.

We don't know what exactly we'll find
when we jump in,

so let's be prepared for anything.

Black alert.

Shields up.

Now let's find the controller
before they do.

If we beat them to it, what then?

How do you plan on stopping them
from using their weapon?

Figuring that out is next on my list.

Captain, dark matter interference
is greater than expected.

Cloaking will be spotty at best.

It's impacting shield stability.

Scanning range is limited as well.

It's like finding a needle in a haystack,
as my grandma used to say.

Mr. Booker will be facing
similar challenges.

Yes, but he has a head start.

Detmer, plot a grid search pattern.

Aye, captain.

Owosekun, scan for the subspace rift
around the dma controller.

Given its size, it should be easier
to find than the device itself.

Aye, captain.

Captain, Mr. Saru,

I need to request that we speak privately.

Commander Nilsson, you have the conn.

My orders were to let you carry out this
tactical operation without intervening.

If it failed,
I was to give you this briefing.

There's a vulnerability
that'll allow us to disable book's ship

before they can fire their weapon.

I know book's ship. It's airtight.

Not with a prototype spore drive,
it isn't.

If we fire a photon torpedo
at the impulse manifold,

the detonation will cause
a chain reaction,

hit a weak spot in the drive,

and destroy the whole thing.

With all the interference here,
we wouldn't be able to beam them out.

Which is why it's a last resort.

If the explosion sets off
the isolytic weapon,

it could destroy discovery in the process.

- Not if we can jump away first.
- If?

Billions of lives
will be saved either way.

Look, I'm sorry about book,
and I know the options aren't...

This isn't just about book or discovery.

The federation needs that spore drive.

We have to at least consider this.

There's too much at stake.
If there's any other way...

And if you wait too long
to realize there isn't?

That won't happen.

- And I will not let you...
- I'm authorized to relieve you of command.

- I will not let you take over my ship...
- Please. Please.

If I may.

Dr. Culber offered
some sage advice earlier,

that in times of division,

we identify that upon which we can agree.

A shared goal, perhaps,
that can lead to compromise.

You're right.

We need to find middle ground,
between us and with book.

A shared goal.

Engineering, stamets.

I'm working as fast as I can
to increase the scanning range.

Put Reno on it.
I need you for something else.

Check my logic here.

If you needed something,
you wouldn't stop until you got it, right?

Or at least until you had no choice
but to look somewhere else for it.

I have no idea what you're talking about.

Boronite.

That's what the dma is mining,

and they wouldn't leave an area until
the boronite in that area was exhausted.

So if we scan for the remaining
boronite in this subsector...

We can calculate the rate of consumption

and predict how much longer
before the dmajumps again.

Exactly.

Ah, but the margin of error,
I don't have a large enough sample size.

Work with zora to build a model
based on what we've got.

If we can get a timetable,
we might be able to use it

to get book to stand down.

- On it.
- We should call the admiral.

Let's do it together.

- Any sign of the controller?
- Not yet.

With all the interference,
our cloak keeps going in and out.

- Listen, about the shuttle...
- They almost died.

I'm sorry.

This mission is ten years
in the making for me.

I need this to work.

And I understand very well
what all this means to you.

With discovery in the way...

There will come a point when you have
to decide what's more important,

your feelings for them
or stopping the dma.

Don't go behind my back again.

Finish the weapon.

It is finished.

I asked you five minutes ago
where to load it

and you were too distracted to hear me.

Torpedo tube 6.

I'll continue scanning for the controller.

- Sensors are picking up an energy spike.
- Is it the controller?

I can't tell.

It's an object of some kind.

Booker's ship dead ahead.

- Ten degrees, hard to port.
- Aye, captain.

I knew you were out here somewhere.

We have a shot. We could take it.

Or we can burn out book's scanners,
make it impossible to find the controller.

Rhys, launch a full spread
of sensor-blinding bursts

at book's ship as we pass,
maximum energy yield.

Aye, captain.

Where did they come from?

She's trying to blind our scanners.

Well done, them.

Scanner function's down to 40%.

- Can you fix it?
- Yes, but not if they hit us again.

They won't. See that hydrogen cloud ahead?

Let me give them
a taste of their own medicine.

Book just fired something
in the direction of that hydrogen cloud.

A magnesium charge.

He's going to ignite it in 20 seconds.

How do you know that?

We had a run-in with pirates
in breen space back in the day.

He pulled the same move.

Detmer, take us toward it.

Captain, with compromised shields,

the heat blast will burn out
our thermal regulators.

We will avoid the blast if we dive in low.

That'll blind book long enough
for us to get out of here.

Detmer, on my Mark,

full power astern,
adjust course, 1-8 Mark 4.

- Aye, captain.
- Here comes the blast.

Take us into that dark matter dust cloud,
20 degrees off our starboard beam.

- Once we're in, resume the grid search.
- Aye, captain.

That was an act of aggression.

He knew whatever damage
would be temporary.

We're not out of options yet.

Where'd they go?

Breen gambit. She's got a good memory.

What does that mean?
And why the hell are you laughing?

There's nothing funny about this.
We don't know where they went.

I'm guessing somewhere
in that dark matter cloud.

This isn't a game, book.
You're costing us time.

No, I'm saving our asses.

The only thing we've got going is
I know Michael's tactics and her crew.

Yeah, maybe you know them too well.
Maybe that's the problem.

Just fix the damn scanners, so we can
find the controller before they do.

Captain, I'm getting
strong sensor contact,

high concentration
of galactic barrier particles.

- It's the subspace rift.
- Great work, owosekun.

Detmer, set a course.

Stamets, where are we
with that boronite timetable?

We're working as fast as we can.

We're crunching gigaquads of raw data.

Can you crunch faster?

Is there an acceptable answer
other than yes?

- Nope.
- Then, yes.

That's it, captain.

Give us a closer look.

The ten-c don't care, do they?

Churn space, take boronite.

Rinse and repeat.

We will stop them.

And we'll do it the right way.

Won't be long
before book's here to try his way.

And we'll be ready.

Commander detmer,
bring us in as close as possible.

I wanna put ourselves between
book's ship and that controller.

And we are going to hold
as long as we possibly can.

Stamets, I need that timetable.

Working on it with zora.
Just need a little bit longer.

We can't keep playing
cat and mouse forever.

Once they get here, we'll need
to make a decisive move, or they will.

We just need to stall long enough

for stamets to get the data
I need to talk book down.

Getting new data didn't change
his mind before. Why would it now?

Because he's reasonable and he's logical.

And he really doesn't
wanna see anyone hurt.

I know he'll give us more time.
I know he will.

He'll just need to know how much.

And what if you're wrong?

Then we can find another way.

We already have another way.

We need to be ready.

Commander Rhys.

This tactical program...

It would destroy book's ship.

We're not there yet.

That's a last resort.

We hope to avoid this option.

For everyone's sake.

But my orders are to prevent them from
firing on that controller at any cost.

Sensors are picking up booker's ship.
He's coming in fast.

Okay. He'll have to decloak
to get a target lock.

Maintain our cloaking as best as you can,

- drop it on my Mark.
- Aye, captain.

Stamets, let zora take over.

I need you to jump.

It's genius, the controller.

This is going to work.

What we're doing is really going to work.

- Is the weapon loaded?
- On your Mark.

Warning, proximity alert.

Damn it, they found us,
and they're blocking our shot.

Can you beam it in?

I'll have to lower the disruption field.
They'd be able to beam us out.

Go around them. Jump.

Stamets,
get ready to jump again.

Detmer, stay between him
and that controller.

- Do not let them get a clean shot.
- Aye, captain.

You had a shot. You should have taken it.

We have one weapon.
We can't afford to miss.

I'm gonna warn them off,
target their shields.

- Shields down to 50%, captain.
- Captain?

He's not trying to hurt us,
just warn us off.

We can argue semantics all we want,

but I think we can both agree
that book is shooting at us.

- Rhys, return fire.
- Aye, captain.

So how long are you planning
on letting them hit us?

She's doing the same thing we are,
warning us off.

Look, I know you love her.

I know you care for her crew,
but this needs to stop.

You wanna go to some home
in another universe.

I lost my entire home here.

Don't you dare tell me how to do this.

I'm firing another round of warning shots.

Then we jump again. Get ready.

- Damn it, enough!
- No!

That was a full spread
of quantum torpedoes.

Shields down to 20%.

Give the order or I will, captain.

There is no way book was responsible
for that attack.

It doesn't matter.
I lost half my team on my last mission

waiting too long to make a call
I knew needed to be made.

I will not let that happen again.

You said it yourself,
the stakes are too high.

It's time.

I fear she may be right.

Captain,
we finished our calculations.

It should take 154 hours,
about a full week,

before the dma gets all the boronite
in this area and jumps again.

Great work.

Lieutenant Christopher, hail book's ship.

No response, captain.

Keep trying.

Commander Rhys?

I want you to obey the order...
If commander nhan gives it.

Mr. Saru, you have the conn.

Commander nhan, with me.

With your team,
how many lives did you save?

- I don't understand...
- How many?

One hundred fifteen.

Not too long ago,
I made a choice that saved lives too.

In the process, I lost others.

As leaders,
we see success or failure, right or wrong,

but it's never that binary.

Nothing is.

There is a middle ground here.

And I know that I can get book to see it.

I just have to make him look.

What can you do, put on an ev suit
and pound on his viewscreen?

I was thinking more fly a shuttle
in front of his viewscreen.

If they try to launch their weapon,
we will fire.

You won't survive.

I believe in book.

But if I'm wrong, if anything happens,

I know you'll save my team.

Your team.

Good luck, Michael.

We are standing by, captain.

Commander Rhys is locked on target.

Understood.

Touch the console again
and I'll take your hands off.

We came here to put a stop to the dma.

Shuttle, identify yourself.

Book, it's me.

Michael?

Commander Rhys, stand by.

Aye, commander.

You haven't been
answering our hails.

Been a little busy.

- Impressive maneuvering, by the way.
- You too.

Book, we can't go on like this.

If we keep digging in on our own sides,

we'll keep battling each other
and not the real threat.

I know you get that.

You said
you wish there was a middle ground?

I do.

I'm sending you new data.

Now, given the rate
the dma is mining boronite,

we expect it to remain in this uninhabited
area of space for another week.

No lives will be in danger
during that time.

And what I'm about to propose
is a plan president rillak

and admiral Vance both approved.

You stand down for the week.

You come aboard discovery.
We hold you there.

Hold us?

Not in the brig.

Just there, for safety's sake.
And it's just one week.

And the federation uses that time
to make first contact

and work to convince
whoever created this thing to withdraw it.

And if that fails...

They'll back your plan
to destroy the controller.

Privacy settings activated.

We can't take this deal.

You lost voting rights
when you fired those torpedoes.

We both have so much at stake here.
You can't just decide to...

It's a viable compromise.

Or it's a lie!

She would say anything
to get you to back off.

I trust Michael.

Completely.

It's the right choice.

I need that power source.

I need to go home.

Don't do this.

Please.

We'll stand down for a week.

Thank you.

Discovery,

I'm on my way back.

Cancel black alert.

Book and tarka are standing down.

Prepare for them in shuttlebay.

Are you familiar
with the concept "expected utility"?

It's a core tenet of game theory.

A mathematical method to help
determine the optimal move in a situation

where risk is high
and the outcome is unclear.

Such analysis can lead
to unexpected solutions.

Of course, one needs
to be clearheaded to make the right move.

What are you doing?

- I'm being clearheaded.
- No!

Captain, they lowered
the disruption field.

I'm reading a transporter signature.

And a massive tachyon surge
inside the dma controller.

Michael, tarka beamed
the weapon into the controller.

It'll go off any second. You have to move.

Can we do anything? Can we stop it?

I do not believe so, captain.

The detonation will stretch
half a parsec. We need to go.

Not until I know they're safe.

The null-space bubble will protect
the internal power source, not us.

We're waiting until they jump.

You tried. Let's go.

Damn it. Black alert. Jump. Now.

I understand it was a risk,
but it needed to be done.

Everyone's safe. The dma's gone.

No more worlds will be destroyed.

You can go back, I can go home.

Once we get the power source.

I just need to find it.

No, it's here. It has to be.

It's not here.

It's powered from the other side
of the wormhole.

Outside the galaxy.

Come.

Any word from book?

I keep hailing.

He won't answer.

What happens now?

We have no idea
how the ten-c will respond,

so the admiral's implementing
emergency protocols

in case of retaliation.

We're fast-tracking
the first contact mission.

Commander Bryce is still looking for ways

to communicate
through the galactic barrier.

Rest of us leave tomorrow.

Did you say your goodbyes?

They made me promise
I won't be a stranger.

I'm gonna hold you to that too.

Please.

Thank you for supporting me...

Reaching out to him one last time.

What you said earlier,

how nothing's ever black-and-white...

I actually did find my family.

Most live in this one village.

So I went to a park there.

There were kids playing
and parents hovering.

Same as my parents did.

I tried to talk to them,

but there was so much I couldn't say.

That I'm from the past, for starters.

So I figured, if I couldn't be
fully honest with them...

Like with us? Hmm.

You couldn't tell us
you were back in uniform, so...

All or nothing, that's me.

Anyhow, I think
it's time for me to get okay

with some middle ground.

I'd love to come back
to discovery one of these days.

- If that's okay.
- Oh, you always have a home here.

Good luck out there.

You too.

Mr. Saru.

Long day.

How are you holding up?

As well as can be expected,
all things considered.

I wanted to commend you
for your calm during today's mission.

I only wish we'd found success.

I, uh,

considering what we're dealing with,
feel silly bringing this up, but...

I am in need of advice
on how best to respond

to an overture from president t'rina.

An overture?

She asked me to join her for dinner.

Socially.

Well, of course, I cannot,
given the mission at hand.

But I am unsure how best to convey that,

even if it were possible,

I would... decline.

We, she and I,
hail from vastly different cultures.

I already feel pulled
between my commitments

to kaminar and starfleet, and...

Do you have feelings for her?

Perhaps I do.

With respect, sir,
in my professional opinion,

you're being an idiot.

Connection is always a risk.

But compared to everything else
we're dealing with right now,

I'd say it's one that you can handle.

Mm.

Mr. Saru, you're requested
on the bridge immediately.

Thank you, doctor,

for that unexpected candor.

Is everything all right, captain?

The USS Mitchell is monitoring
the area where the dma was located.

They just sent this.

A new dma has appeared?

In the exact same place.

Then it would seem, like it or not...

We just made first contact.
