- We've run out of time.

- Please tell me this is all part

of your grand master plan.

- Ah, the tears in space-time must have grown

too large and too noticeable, ugh!

- You helped us create that thing up there.

What did we do wrong?

- The wormhole's quantum signature is correct.

It'll lead us to the past on Tars Lamora.

But I was counting on us finishing the mission

before the Loom found their way back.

- You're saying to close the loop

and save our timeline, we need to send the "Protostar"

through that mess?

- Or else those things will keep pouring in

until they erase Solum and "Voyager"

and everything our lives have ever touched

in the Prime Universe.

- No autopiloting system is advanced enough

to keep a ship on course

through a swarm-infested wormhole.

- I'll fly it.

- I may not know much about time travel,

but we found this ship on Tars Lamora empty.

What do you plan to do, eject mid-flight?

- "Voyager" can follow the "Protostar" through.

Once it's safe for autopilot, "Voyager" beams you out.

- That might work.

Except you're not going alone.

- Gwyn, this is no time to--

- Like Wesley said, we have to stay together.

- If you point the way, "Voyager" will clear us

a path through that nightmare.

No one faces this alone.

Remodulate phasers to match the Loom's quantum variants.

That should send them back to the dimension they came from.

And set weapons to maximum.
