Previously
on Star Trek discovery:

Our ship is enclosed
in a membrane of unknown substance.

It appears to be an orb of some kind.

Tell stamets to assemble a team

and figure out a way to get us out.

The dma
could destroy both of our worlds.

They must be evacuating.
Even now.

The math doesn't lie.
Most will not be saved.

- We have a problem.
- What is it?

We have only 12 hours
before the dma reaches earth.

Won't take nearly that long
to get us out of here.

- Where do I come in?
- You'll hack discovery's systems

and vent the plasma
through the starboard nacelle.

We can't do this without you.

It's done.

Just make sure
you stop the damn thing in time.

I am not certain
how to step into danger with one

for whom I have such a personal fondness.

This is one of the reasons
I avoid closeness with others.

Something is coming.

A life-form.

They responded
to our expression of suffering

with an expression of great sadness.

And if they have empathy for us,
diplomacy can work.

Your friend tarka's gonna kill us all.

I won't let you do this.

I never wanted this, book.

Even

thirty minutes left

and we're out of this orb and on our way.

We just received
an urgent message from booker's ship.

It's Reno. Tarka has got me
and book locked up.

If he takes out the dma
the way he wants to,

it'll destroy the hyperfield,
the ten-c, probably discovery too.

It'll also leave a toxic void,
same as we got stuck in,

heading straight for earth.

You have to stop us, whatever it takes.

Each deck
of federation headquarters

is able to function independently,

essentially as its own lifeboat,

so don't waste any space.

As soon as your deck
is filled to capacity,

report to your co, who will detach
and warp to evacuation base gamma.

We need to get as many people
to safety as quickly as possible.

Lieutenant cent,
please report to shuttlebay.

People are scared.

They're losing everything.

They're gonna be looking
to the federation for guidance,

for safety,

for hope.

We get to give that to them.

Attention
all personnel, please standby.

We 7! Be dropping out
of warp in one minute.

All available officers are on evac duty.

Our job is to help them succeed.

As of now, you're no longer cadets.

I know you may not feel ready...

But I assure you, you are.

You can do this.

Dismissed.

Gorev, harral, you're with me.

Deck 29's at capacity.

Requesting permission to undock.

Permission granted.

See you at the rendezvous point.

We're running out of time.

Admiral Vance.

Ni'var has 17 ships
heading to the evacuation base.

Do you want me to bring them here
after they unload?

No. They should stick to the plan.

Ni'var only has
86 warp-capable ships as it is.

Yes, sir.

How long do we have here, sir,
to help earth?

Four hours until the dma starts to hit.

Well, the Mitchell is at titan.

Even with the entire colony
on board, they won't hit capacity.

That's a good idea.

When the Mitchell's done,

get them back here to pick up
as many additional refugees as they can.

Yes, sir.

Excuse me, sir.

I'm sorry, admiral.

I was just wondering,

how many can we save?

- Realistically.
- If first contact fails,

all of titan.

Maybe 450,000 off of earth.

Same with ni'var.

Best case.

That's it?

Please hurry, Michael.

Where is stamets
on getting us out of this orb?

He's testing some theories,
nothing concrete yet.

What about the ten-c, any response?

Negative. Dr. Hirai's still
asking them to release us.

Owosekun, what's the status on tarka?

Scans show he's gaining speed,
heading for the dma power source.

It's encased within
a silicone-ellanium alloy.

Same as the dma controller itself.

That alloy's incredibly effective
at containing energy,

but it won't withstand external forces.
So whatever tarka's planning...

He's going to hit it
with a gravimetric beam.

If ten-c think they're under attack,

they won't come back and talk to us.
Not in time.

Ten-c's just launched
another orb, captain.

They're trying to capture book's ship.

Keep me posted.

It. Christopher,
tell commander stamets to test faster.

I want us out of this orb,
whatever it takes.

And have the diplomatic personnel
gather in the mess hall.

- Yes, captain.
- Madam president, if you'd join me?

May I ask what you have in mind?

I'm going to confine them all to quarters.

I think you should be there
when I tell them.

The orbs will capture us again

if we don't keep changing
our astrodynamics.

Where's your presto chango button?

I'm not helping you
with another damn thing.

I don't understand.

I'm doing exactly what we said we'd do.

- Nothing's changed.
- Everything's changed.

The cost of this,
it has to be the last resort.

You heard ndoye, right?

The first contact team is gone.

They're in an orb.

They could be dead for all we know.

No, they're talking to the ten-c.
It could work.

You once told me anger can be productive.

It can also blind you.

I've been trying for ten years!

I'm going home.

I'm finding oros.

End of story.

There it is.

There's got to be a way out of this.

If I had some hot and sour soup...

Wouldn't help us. I'm just hungry.

The upside is,
when we hit the hyperfield,

we'll be vaporized immediately.

Where's the upside in that?

We'll die fast.

I hate pain.

Or maybe we'll survive after all.

I'm sorry, madam president,
but plasma doesn't vent itself.

This entire mission is compromised.

There has to be a less public way
to handle this.

It'll erode their trust in one another.

I can't let whoever did this
keep walking around my ship.

Is this about the plasma vent?

I'll fill you in once everyone is here.
I'm gonna need to lock you all down.

That won't be necessary.

I'm the one who aided their escape.

What?

- Why would you...?
- United earth is running out of time

and you were all gone.

We had no idea where the orb went,

when you'd be back,
or if you were even still alive.

They can stop the dma right now.

No, no.

Billions of people might still die.

No. Mr. Booker assured me...

Was that before or after
tarka took him hostage?

Communication with the ten-c
was working, general.

We think they would have withdrawn
the dma in time.

Officer zena.

Please confine general ndoye
to her quarters.

Captain.

Madam president.

I remain ready and willing to serve.

Captain, we've received
an answer from the ten-c.

What did they say?

Well, it is rather bewildering.

We have been asking them
to release us from the orb.

They replied
that we are already free of it.

Are we sure the message was clear, zora?

For that particular exchange,

I estimate our accuracy
to be in the 96th percentile.

Could they be confused about who sent it?

More likely they presume
we're working with booker and tarka.

We did arrive here together.

Zora, can you communicate
that tarka is acting on his own?

The nuances of that
could take quite a long time.

If I can connect
with them telepathically,

I may be able to convey
our desire to protect them.

Madam president,

linking with an unknown species

is dangerous in ways
we cannot begin to anticipate.

We have less than four hours.

Do we really have a choice?

I have made contact.

- Madam president.
- Break the link.

- T'rina.
- Break the link.

Madam president?

Madam president?

Are you okay?

What happened?

They...

They are confused and terrified.

They cannot stop booker's ship.

And they no longer trust us.

We must find another way to reach them...

Or I fear...

That our worlds are already doomed.

Heart rate
and blood pressure are still elevated.

But her neural activity's
returning to normal.

Madam president,

is there anything else
you can tell us about them?

The experience was...

Unusual

our connection, I...

I was not feeling one of the ten-c,

but all of them.

They're linked.

Like the borg?

No, quite different.

There was a sense of Harmony
with one another.

It's difficult to describe,

but I believe they may not have

any awareness
of individual existence as we know it.

We're running out of time
to help them understand.

Captain, I've got a way
out of the orb, but it won't be pretty.

We're on our way.

Keep us posted.

I apologize that I must go.

Before I do, if I may,

what you said
about avoiding closeness with others...

This possibility,

it is the reason I, too,

have avoided a certain type
of closeness since leaving kaminar.

But I've come to believe
that the limits I place upon myself

do not protect me so much as...

Dull the brightness of my days.

Ah. In any event...

We made it.

I just need the power source
and you two can go back to discovery.

It'll be over in 15 minutes.

Unless another orb chases us
into the hyperfield and we all die.

Ten-c wouldn't risk getting this close
to the plasma streams.

Book, you hear that?

- We're nearly there.
- I heard you.

Look, I know we don't see
eye-to-eye on this,

but this doesn't just have
to be about my home.

Kwejian will be there too.

You could come with me.

You'll get your family back.

Kyheem. Leto.

No, he won't.

Because they're gone.

Anyone in your universe
can look the same, laugh the same,

want their sandwiches cut diagonally
with exactly two pickles on the side...

But kyheem isn't there.

Neither is leto, or my wife,
or anyone else we've lost.

I never said it was them exactly.

But it is them.

Buddy.

Think of it.

Reno's right.

They're gone.

So let me help you...

Before you do something
we're all going to regret.

This will all be over soon.

It sure as hell will.

Good news is I can get us out,

and we should survive.

Should?

The best I can do these days.

Yeah, we've been analyzing
the amount of energy required

for booker's ship to escape the orb.

Now, considering discovery's
much larger size,

let's just say that it would take
a lot more for us to do the same.

And as of right now,
there is only one process

that can discharge that amount of energy
without also killing us immediately.

The spore drive.

Normally, when we jump,

the energy that's discharged
is converted into momentum

that propels the ship along the pathways
of the mycelial network.

But if we were to remain stationary,

all that stored up energy
would have to find somewhere else to go.

You're saying it would release
into the orb and break us out?

But it would burn out the spore drive
in the process,

which we won't be able to repair
without spacedock.

Meaning we'd have to warp home.

It would take decades.

That's the bad news.

Do it.

Are you gonna tell me
what the hell that is?

Cat collar.

Grudge hates holos.

Used to scare holo couriers,

so I had to install a disruptor,

that'll work rather nicely

on the force field generated
by holo emitters.

Ready?

Is this where I get to say
I was born ready?

A cat door.

You'll thank me later.

Commander stamets, are you set?

Spore drive's active.

Ready to jump on your Mark.

Dr. Hirai, any word back from the ten-c?

I repeated the message
that we 're trying to help.

Not much more we can do
if they won't answer.

Okay.

Black alert.

Let's get the hell out of here.

Commander stamets?

Spore drive's holding,

but power throughput's nearing capacity.

We got minor hull breaches
on multiple decks,

no injuries reported.

What about the orb?

No changes yet.

Captain, our entire eps grid
is about to overload.

Do not stop it.

This is our only shot.

We're out of the orb.

The impulse engines
are back up and running.

Warp drive is gonna take a while.

So will weapons systems.

Spore drive's down, as expected.

Any other orbs on the way?

None.

Seems they're letting us go.

Maybe we can turn this around after all.

Exiting
the gas giant now, captain.

Get us back to book's ship
as fast as you can.

Ten-c won't talk to us
until we stop tarka.

Aye, captain.

Tarka.

Here's to holo disruptors.

I think I might actually start
to like that cat of yours.

Can't get into the system.

It's on autopilot.

Ten minutes until it gets to the power
source and the hyperfield goes boom.

There's no way we're gonna be able
to override the system in time.

Damn it. We're locked out of comms too.

So much for calling in the cavalry.

Hey, take my badge. Beam back
to discovery, tell them what's happening.

I'm gonna stay with him
and find a way to stop this.

Tell Michael I love her.

And whatever she has to do...

It's okay.

Book's ship's
back in range, captain.

Can you get us any closer?

Not with these plasma bursts.

Captain, someone's beaming aboard.

I've got a lock.

It's commander Reno.

Bring her to the bridge.

Commander, are you okay?

Better than boy genius.

He'll be through to the power source
in the next ten, just fyi.

Rhys?

Still getting weapons online.

I'll see if I can help with that.

The man loves you.

He said, "do whatever it takes."

Okay, we need options.

Can we transport them back here?

Book's ship is protected
by a pattern interrupter.

I can't get a lock
unless they choose to leave.

What about a tractor beam?
Pull them away from the casement?

Only if they stop
their gravimetric beam first.

Otherwise, we could destroy
the hyperfield ourselves.

Captain, if I may.

General ndoye has a singular mind
for military tactics.

She did offer to help.

- What am I looking at, lieutenant?
- We have incoming.

Near earth debris pushed
by gravitational waves

at 2,100 kilometers per second.

Tell earth to raise their shields.

Attention, all personnel,

prepare for incoming.

Transport shuttles, continue evacuations.

All others, defensive formation omega.

We'll hold the line as long as we can.

Who is that?

The USS Mitchell, sir. They made it.

Remind me to give their captain
a commendation

if we ever make it out of this alive.

- Is the president off-world?
- No, sir.

She's helping with the evacuation.

She said she won't leave
until the last possible moment.

Make sure the evac captain gets her
in a shuttle before pulling out.

Admiral, deck 5 is at full capacity.

- Tell them to get out while they can.
- Yes, sir.

We're running out of time.

I presume you've considered the obvious?

- Tractor beam and the like?
- We have.

What about a targeted hit?

We could send a shuttle on autopilot.

Gravimetric flux
would disrupt navigation.

Somebody would have to be
on the controls to stay on target.

I don't think
I could beam them out in time.

It's a suicide mission.

There's no way book and tarka
would survive.

If we don't stop tarka,
the ten-c will never stop the dma.

Earth and ni'var
may already be getting hit.

We'll need a great pilot.

I'm ready, captain.

Let me do it.

General?

I have years of experience
as a combat pilot.

United earth is my home.

Its citizens are my family.

I spent the last 20 years
fighting to protect both.

That is where my decision
to help book and tarka came from.

Whether or not you would have
made the same choice,

you must understand it.

Owosekun, prepare to beam
the general to shuttlebay.

If I don't make it back,

please tell the president
I gave my all for earth.

Status report.

Bridge propulsion systems
just went down, admiral. We're stuck.

Pathfinder and tikhov
both report shields below 10 percent.

Sir, the credence is leaving now.

The nog's still not at capacity,
but they're taking hits and won't last.

This is USS yelchin.

Evacuation orders are complete.
See you on the other side.

This is admiral Charles Vance.

All remaining vessels...

Cease evacuation effort.

Depart earth and her moon immediately.

I'll provide covering fire for you
for as long as I possibly can.

USS grechko,
confirming all navigational links online.

Thank you all for your bravery.

Abandon ship.

Report to the Mitchell immediately.

You both did great job today.

I just wish we could have done more.

I know. Me too.

See you on the Mitchell.

Federation hq,
this is the USS Mitchell.

Jumping to the rendezvous point now.
Good luck, admiral.

Lieutenant, what are you doing?

Helping you with covering fire.

Those are my cadets out there.

This was all for nothing
if the ships can't actually leave.

Once they get clear,
we won't be able to transport over.

I know, sir.

Come on. Damn it, wake up.

Four minutes to casement breach.

Come on, come on. I've tried everything.

Tell me how to stop it.

I can't do that.

Would oros want this?

We're almost home.

He won't be there.

- You have to know that.
- Stop.

He's gone, tarka.

- You don't know that!
- Hey.

I understand, okay?

I do.

It's painful.

The hole they leave behind.

Leto, kyheem.

Some days, I don't even
know how to wake up.

Love always ends in grief,

but we can't let the pain do this to us.

He'd have done
what you're doing right now.

He'd have stopped me.

I know, I know.

- Why isn't he here to stop me?
- Hey.

Sixty seconds
to casement breach.

I'm sorry.

- What?
- I'm so sorry.

I used the recursive
fractal encryption key.

I can't stop this in time.

Warning, proximity alert.

They've nearly
reached the power source.

I'll get there in time, captain.

We're with you, diatta.

I know you are, laira.

If I don't make it,

please save them.

Save our home.

Get ready, owosekun.

Aye, captain.

She did it, captain.
The hyperfield is safe.

And I've got general ndoye.

Good.
Beam her straight to sickbay.

Any life signs on book's ship?

Two. They both made it.

See if you can beam them on board as well.

The hit may have taken out
their pattern interrupter.

I'm trying. I can't get a lock.

They don't have much time.

They're on a collision course
with the hyperfield.

Ninety seconds to impact.

Hyperfield will destroy us.

We have to beam back to discovery.

There's not enough power.

Life support terminated.

What are you doing?

I'm leaving enough to transport you.

No. We're both getting out of this.

Sixty seconds to impact.

Listen to me. Listen, hey.

Michael is in this world, book.

Your life is in this world.

Mine belongs to kayalise.

Or a place beyond it.

Maybe the transporter I built will work.

Maybe the impact
will be enough to get me there.

Maybe I'll see oros again.

I won't leave you here to die.

Goodbye, book.

Thirty seconds to impact.

I have
a new transport signature.

Book. It's faint.

- Can you get him?
- Working on it.

Locking on.

Bring him
straight to the bridge.

Did we...?

Did-—?

Captain...

Another orb is coming.

Let's go finish this.

Prepare to re-enter the orb.

We've lost the rest of the weapon systems,

but all our ships made it safely
to the rendezvous point.

I thought we should celebrate that,
at least.

- Whiskey?
- Yeah, it's from risa.

Tarka gave it to me
when we finished the new spacedock.

What a sweetheart that guy is.

Oh, I, um...

I programmed the dots
to reinforce deflector arrays

and rerouted all power to the shields,

so toilets might not flush anymore,

but it might buy earth
a little bit more time.

How much time do we have?

According to
the gravitational lensing I saw,

two hours till the dma really gets us.

It's more than enough time

to get bogged down
with life's greatest regrets.

I'm actually pretty happy
with how my life went.

Made some friends who became my family,

I got to see and do incredible things.

This one sunset, my first boyfriend and I,

we skipped our biology lecture

and climbed up on the roof
of the academy just to see it.

Well, I'm glad
you never ditched engineering.

Some people never find
their purpose in life, you know.

I'm grateful I found mine.

Yeah, me too.

I just wish I'd fulfilled it better.

My daughter.

Wish I spent more time with my daughter.

Does she know you love her?

Of course.

More than anything.

My mom and I didn't have
an easy relationship at all,

but I always knew she loved me.

That's the most important thing.

That's what I remember.

Commander detmer, where are we?

Still descending,
heading deeper into the gas giant.

Scans show we're approaching
a structure of massive proportions.

Like on their homeworld?

Maybe.

Wherever they're taking us,
there are thousands of life signs.

Captain, we are receiving
a new message from the ten-c.

"We now understand
your request to leave the orb.

You are not one.

How many are you?"

They're also
asking us to join them.

They say they'll send transport.

Same as before.

Mr. Saru, Dr. Hirai,
meet us in shuttlebay.

Zora, join us there as well.

And all of you.

We don't have much time left,

we should all be there for this.

Commander stamets, are we ready?

Uh, just about.

Saru's device will continue beaming
our hydrocarbons onto the orb's surface.

But given the size of the space,

zora will need to generate the light map.

I'm joining you now, captain.

We 7! Keep working together
and calibrate as we go back and forth.

Thank you, all of you.

I am sending the updated language
algorithm to the device now, captain.

I thought you'd be down
on the surface with everyone else.

After what happened with book...

I wanna be with my family.

I'm glad you're here.

Captain, madam president,

we are receiving a new message.

The map should arrive momentarily.

And there it is.

They are repeating
their query from before.

"We understand now that you are not one.

How many are you?"

What would you like me to say?

Each of us is an individual one.

We are also one, as a whole.

Our appearances and experiences differ.

Yet we all seek happiness,
freedom, security,

equality.

We want that for our children

just as you do for yours.

There is so much that unites us.

They're sending a reply.

They are asking about the others
who were trying to breach the casement.

They were once connected to us.

Part of the whole...

And then they separated.

They would like to know why.

One of them had someone...

His one...

And he lost him long ago.

He believed the power source
would reunite them.

And the other...

Your device destroyed his planet.

It killed his family.

He didn't want anyone else
to experience that.

"Is that why you are here?"

That loss is about to happen again.

To all of us.

We experienced your fear and your pain

when you had to leave your former home

when so many of your
loved ones were left behind.

And that is what we are feeling right now.

You have to stop your device.

Othennise, it will destroy
our planets as well,

and billions will die.

Do not let history repeat.

They said...

Did the dmajust...

Stop?

They said they will move it away.

There goes the debris field.

Reno, are you hearing this?

They stopped the dma.

I'm already
making a cocktail, bobcat.

Bobcat?

It's a... it's a good nickname.

They feel your sadness, captain,

but they do not understand.

They say your home is safe.

Billions of ones are safe.

They ask why you feel this way.

The two people who separated from us

that died today...

One of them, I loved very deeply.

He was...

He was my one.

Where am I?

What happened?

Did it work?

- Yeah.
- Is earth and ni'var safe?

- They are.
- Yeah?

Are you real?

He's alive.

That's them.

Can I talk to them?

Saru will translate.

How am I even here?

"We intercepted
your transportation signal.

We did not understand its nature,
but presumed its importance,

given the timing of its appearance,

so we held it in stasis."

Is it gone for good?

"We did not realize
you were higher life forms.

In the future, we will scan more broadly.

We will only operate
in uninhabited areas of space."

That's not good enough.

It's not enough to stop destroying lives.

The dma always leaves behind a toxic mess.

You have to shut it off for good.

That is the start of making things right.

They said if they do that,
they would not be able to...

I do not understand the word,

but they seem to be
referring to the hyperfield.

"We would not be able to power it.

That would make us unsafe."

Hiding behind a wall may calm your fears,
but it won't keep you safe.

The void will eventually reach you.

We all live in the same space.

This is all there is.

On my home...

We had an organism,

it connected all life on kwejian.

Wherever we lived,
whatever village or continent,

it reminded us we were all
on the same planet,

our fates always interconnected.

Maybe that's the lesson,

if there is one.

That is true of all of us.

We've lost so many, you and me.

But we can't do harm
in their names or memories.

We have to honor them.

All of them.

Because they were beloved...

Beautiful.

They're sending a new message.

"We have caused great harm.

We are filled with regret and sorrow.

We will make this right."

They did it.

They sure did.

They sure did.

Commander Rhys,

cancel red alert.

Aye, captain.

Scans show a wormhole forming.

It's approaching at a rate
of 15 kilometers a second.

They are using
the dma wormhole one last time.

We're going home.

I am pleased that the damage
to united earth and ni'var

was not more severe.

Oh, yeah.

Titan got it the worst,
but earth's already there.

Everyone's coming together
to help them rebuild. It's...

We have come a long way, captain.

Indeed, we have.

Oh.

Tilly!

I love you. I missed you.

Madam president.

Thank you, for carrying us through.

And I'd say we were both exactly
where we needed to be.

None of this would have been happening
the last time that I saw you.

It's still a little hard sometimes,
but it's okay.

You're doing great.

And then, you know,
the times that it's hard,

that's what family is for.

I hope I'm not interrupting.

I was just thinking about ni'var.

You must be eager to return home.

And I am grateful that
we no longer need to worry.

As am I.

I have been considering
what you shared earlier.

I have long told myself
that balancing duty

and personal relationships
was not possible.

I believe now that I was being
dishonest with myself.

It is possible, if difficult.

However, it is worth the effort...

For the right individual.

When I feared we may not survive,

my greatest regret was that I had not
spent more time with you, madam president.

Please, you must call me t'rina.

Come.

It's a hell of a thing,
the ten-c.

It makes me wonder about
all the other beings we've never met.

There's still so much to learn

about our one small corner
of the universe.

Oh, how's your family?
Is your partner okay?

All safe, thankfully.

He was evacuated from the moon
with the rest of the research team.

And my family stayed on earth,

but they escaped the worst of it.

I'm gonna see them soon.

You have come a long way
since we first stood here.

The kobayashi maru conversation.

Mm. I told you you weren't ready
for a voyager captaincy.

You are now.

Thank you.

I still wouldn't take it, ma'am.

Oh, I know.

What happens with him?

With book?

He violated multiple federation statutes.

He launched an isolytic weapon. It's...

It's a long list.

And I am not asking for leniency.

I know.

But reasons do matter.

It's the only way
justice can ever be just.

I got the news about my future.

Could you give us a minute, please?

We're beaming him
back to his shuttle in five.

- Hey. Hey.
- Hey.

- Are you okay?
- Yeah.

What did they say?

Federation's sending me
to help families displaced by the dma.

Not sure for how long,
but I know where I'll be.

How do you feel about it?

I'll miss the freedom of my ship.

But all things considered...

I heard my own voice
when I was talking to the ten-c

about not causing harm.

I'm sorry, Michael.

It'll be nice to be of use, though.

Look, I don't know how to say bye.

We say, "kwekoni yiquan."

It's a kwejian term used only amongst
hunters with the tightest of bonds.

It means something like:

"We've parted a hundred times.

May we rejoin to part a hundred more."

Kwekoni yiquan it is.

- Kwekoni yiquan...
- I said it right the first time.

Mm-mm.

I love you, you know.

I love you more.

I first knew it when we were
in that terrible scrap in tiburon.

It was so cold. Do you remember?

- Yeah, but it wasn't that cold.
- Oh, it was freezing.

There was a dust of snow on the ground,
and everything was pink.

I do remember that. That was beautiful.

Yeah, and you were shivering.

Yeah, trying to be so tough,
but I saw you shivering.

I told you that I was moving to keep warm.

Yeah. And that's when I said...

"That's what shivering is, Michael."

I took a long look at you,

and I thought:

"All right, book,

what are you gonna do?"

And that's when you said:

"We're gonna be okay."

Hard to believe it's over.

The uncertainty, the fear, the unknown.

Sometimes, it felt like
it would never end.

But we made it.

We've been tracking subspace rifts.

The ten-c are keeping
their promise to clean them up.

First contact wasn't easy,

but, as always, the effort was worth it.

How's it going?

It's faster than expected, actually.

Which means we'll all get
a much-needed break soon.

Everyone has people to see...

- Is Bryce meeting us there?
- That's what he said.

Assuming kovich lets him go.

And places to visit.

Places they haven't seen in 930 years.

I can't believe you did this for me.

I actually get to go home.

I did it for me, actually,

so I can finally have mavi
not made by a replicator.

Some will use this time
to strengthen existing relationships.

Others are already
reaching out to build new ones.

He's heading to
an emergency center on europa.

I don't know when I'll see him again,

but I know I will.

Kwekoni yiquan.

We came to this future
to find the federation in pieces,

quadrants and sectors,
planets and families divided,

so much uncertainty and disconnection.

But the burn and the dma
have shown us that we are all connected.

And we can overcome any challenge,
so long as we do it together.

The federation is continuing
to help impacted worlds recover.

Many have since joined us.

Their perspectives
are helping us all see more clearly.

Ni'var is back.

Tellar prime never left.

Andoria is now in talks.

And today, we greet
the president of united earth.

Madam president.

Madam president, welcome.

I am so pleased that you've come.

We are eager to begin
diplomatic discussions.

Nothing to discuss.

United earth is ready right now
to rejoin the federation.

And nothing could make me happier
than to say those words.

Thank you.

Thank you, all,

what you have accomplished here.

We were lucky to have each other, ma'am.

We couldn't have succeeded otherwise.

General, I'm glad to see you've recovered.

Yes. I haven't had that
close a call in quite a while.

I would consider it a personal favor
if that were your last close call.

I am ever at your service,
madam president.

- Captain, may I have a word?
- Of course.

I can only imagine what you're feeling,

having lived in a time
before earth left the federation.

It means a lot to all of us.

But, yes, it's very special to me
to get to welcome you home.

Thank you.

Bringing the federation back
together again has been a great start.

But there are countless worlds
out there to still be explored.

So many are looking
for understanding, connection,

better tomorrow.

There's a lot of work to do.

Are you ready for that?

Let's get to it.
