1
00:00:36,329 --> 00:00:39,541
Thank you for allowing me
to meditate with you.
2
00:00:41,334 --> 00:00:44,712
This is normally done
in private, counselor...
3
00:00:45,129 --> 00:00:49,467
...but it is an honor to teach Vulcan
techniques to one so willing.
4
00:00:52,136 --> 00:00:58,434
These sessions... They're the only times
that Vulcans pay attention to their emotions?
5
00:00:59,519 --> 00:01:06,276
We find it salutary to have an interval during
which we ask ourselves the question
no other Vulcan may:
6
00:01:08,778 --> 00:01:10,863
"How do you feel?"
7
00:01:16,995 --> 00:01:18,621
When this mission is over...
8
00:01:20,707 --> 00:01:22,709
I will miss these times with you.
9
00:01:26,921 --> 00:01:28,923
And I with you.
10
00:01:31,801 --> 00:01:34,178
Doctor, I believe you may benefit from
11
00:01:34,804 --> 00:01:36,764
further teaching with masters on Vulcan.
12
00:01:38,641 --> 00:01:40,101
Perhaps you could as well.
13
00:01:41,561 --> 00:01:44,188
There's a discipline called
the "Dalhutnar," isn't there?
14
00:01:45,315 --> 00:01:48,901
To help one accept the wisdom
of vestigial emotions.
15
00:01:49,736 --> 00:01:53,656
There is also the "Kolinahr":
the purging of all remaining emotions.
16
00:01:55,742 --> 00:02:00,121
There is no chance of me undertaking
the former, nor the latter.
17
00:02:03,124 --> 00:02:06,669
I am rarely disposed to discuss
matters of a private nature...
18
00:02:11,549 --> 00:02:15,136
but our relationship is... special.
19
00:02:18,640 --> 00:02:24,854
I have served aboard this starship for
sixteen years under two captains.
20
00:02:27,231 --> 00:02:29,817
I would not admit this in front of Dr. McCoy...
21
00:02:31,819 --> 00:02:35,698
but such a lengthy association with
22
00:02:36,282 --> 00:02:40,536
men and women from Earth has
taught me to value
23
00:02:41,037 --> 00:02:49,087
my maternal birthright in a way I never
could had I remained on Vulcan.
24
00:03:06,270 --> 00:03:13,027
KIRK (VO):
Captain's log, stardate 6988.4. The Enterprise
is scheduled to return to Earth shortly.
25
00:03:14,487 --> 00:03:20,493
I always intended to bring her back in one
piece, but the triumph is bittersweet.
26
00:03:22,495 --> 00:03:26,290
The recent loss of our
sister ship still gnaws at me.
27
00:03:29,377 --> 00:03:35,091
Whatever it was that caused the Hood's
crew to lose life support, killing all 430
men and women aboard is...
28
00:03:36,384 --> 00:03:38,302
[INTERCOM WHISTLES]
29
00:03:41,597 --> 00:03:42,932
Kirk here.
30
00:03:44,016 --> 00:03:46,227
UHURA:
Priority incoming message from
the Chief of Starfleet Operations.
31
00:03:47,729 --> 00:03:49,063
I'll take it down here, lieutenant.
32
00:03:52,608 --> 00:03:53,985
Admiral Thesp.
33
00:03:54,485 --> 00:03:57,071
Captain... priority one. We're diverting you to Aldebaran.
34
00:03:59,907 --> 00:04:05,329
Admiral, considering the ships we've lost in
that system recently, do you think that's wise?
35
00:04:05,913 --> 00:04:13,045
Wise or not, it's necessary. The Yorktown
and Republic were severely damaged during their
investigation into the Hood's loss.
36
00:04:13,755 --> 00:04:19,552
And shortly afterwards, the Federation colony
on Aldebaran III went completely silent.
37
00:04:20,970 --> 00:04:23,639
How could an entire Federation
colony suddenly go silent?
38
00:04:27,101 --> 00:04:29,562
Starfleet has a top-secret
laboratory on that world.
39
00:04:30,271 --> 00:04:34,734
The supply vessel we sent to investigate --
the S.S. Halifax -- never returned.
40
00:04:36,235 --> 00:04:41,908
Before we lost contact, the Halifax reported
significant anti-proton residue
on the planet's surface.
41
00:04:43,284 --> 00:04:44,952
I think you know what that means.
42
00:04:48,164 --> 00:04:50,124
Romulans.
43
00:05:00,343 --> 00:05:02,929
KIRK (VO):
Space. The final frontier.
44
00:05:11,521 --> 00:05:14,357
These are the voyages of the
Starship Enterprise.
45
00:05:15,441 --> 00:05:16,818
Its continuing mission:
46
00:05:17,276 --> 00:05:19,278
to explore strange
new worlds.
47
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:23,115
To seek out new life
and new civilizations.
48
00:05:24,116 --> 00:05:26,953
To boldly go
where no man has gone before.
49
00:06:14,208 --> 00:06:17,420
Captain, readings indicate the colony
has been destroyed.
50
00:06:18,796 --> 00:06:20,047
Romulan plasma weapon?
51
00:06:20,506 --> 00:06:25,678
Judging by the damage, it appears the central
reactor has suffered a containment failure.
52
00:06:25,970 --> 00:06:28,472
- That's unusual.
- It's impossible! I installed the
safeguards myself 5 years ago.
53
00:06:28,973 --> 00:06:30,808
Perhaps some kind of sabotage.
54
00:06:31,100 --> 00:06:33,394
SCOTT:
At least the Pandora Science Lab's intact.
55
00:06:33,811 --> 00:06:38,024
But it's underground -- and it generates a
particle scattering field. I'll have to put
ya down outside.
56
00:06:38,399 --> 00:06:40,985
- Just put us down in one piece, Scotty.
- Aye sir.
- Energize.
57
00:07:17,271 --> 00:07:19,482
The disruption field is
obstructing my readings.
58
00:07:25,404 --> 00:07:29,867
I am detecting 2 life forms
large enough to be humanoid.
59
00:07:36,207 --> 00:07:38,292
I don't suppose they left a key
under a rock somewhere.
60
00:07:40,294 --> 00:07:43,965
I can attempt to access the lift using
standard Federation prefixes...
61
00:07:51,138 --> 00:07:52,348
Automated defenses!
62
00:08:14,537 --> 00:08:17,832
We must maintain the barrage!
The drone cannot fire through its own shields!
63
00:08:24,797 --> 00:08:29,677
Spock! Sould the turret's anti-grav beam
be creating a gap on the bottom
of its deflector screen?
64
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:34,348
- Highly possible.
- Let's find out.
65
00:08:52,158 --> 00:08:52,992
Fascinating.
66
00:08:53,659 --> 00:08:55,578
LANA:
You're Vulcan.
67
00:08:57,955 --> 00:09:03,210
- You. You're Vulcan.
- Affirmative.
68
00:09:04,795 --> 00:09:07,715
When a simple "yes" would do.
Vulcan for sure.
69
00:09:10,593 --> 00:09:14,805
Forgive the attack. The drone's sensors
thought you were another Romulan invader.
70
00:09:15,181 --> 00:09:19,268
The bio-signs are almost identical.
You're in charge?
71
00:09:20,311 --> 00:09:22,813
Captain James T. Kirk.
Federation starship Enterprise.
72
00:09:24,106 --> 00:09:25,649
"T" for Tiberius.
73
00:09:36,827 --> 00:09:39,163
Who are you? What happened here?
74
00:09:41,373 --> 00:09:42,291
You don't know?
75
00:09:44,502 --> 00:09:48,881
It was your starship that first pierced
the barrier around our galaxy 5 years ago.
76
00:09:50,216 --> 00:09:56,263
An energy field that enhances humans
with high ESP quotients. "Uplifts" them.
77
00:09:58,224 --> 00:10:02,436
Since then, certain Starfleet officials
have been asembling us.
78
00:10:03,562 --> 00:10:07,233
Testing us. Experimenting. 25 in total.
79
00:10:08,234 --> 00:10:11,237
It appears you, too, have journeyed
through the barrier yourself.
80
00:10:12,571 --> 00:10:15,741
- A trial run.
- Trial for what?
81
00:10:17,284 --> 00:10:18,494
The ultimate last resort.
82
00:10:19,995 --> 00:10:22,081
Protection against invasion.
83
00:10:22,748 --> 00:10:26,210
In the event the Federation is
ever invaded by a superior force,
84
00:10:26,752 --> 00:10:28,587
we were to fly through the
galactic barrier.
85
00:10:29,255 --> 00:10:32,925
Granting you superior powers.
Effectively weaponizing you.
86
00:10:33,467 --> 00:10:36,220
The Federation isn't in the business
of weaponizing its citizens.
87
00:10:36,887 --> 00:10:39,598
You should better familiarize yourself
with the Starfleet charter.
88
00:10:40,099 --> 00:10:41,976
Article 14, Section 31.
89
00:10:43,727 --> 00:10:48,858
Captain. Absolute power does NOT
corrupt absolutely.
90
00:10:49,984 --> 00:10:51,485
It corrupts SELECTIVELY...
91
00:10:52,528 --> 00:10:54,446
...as you know from experience.
92
00:10:55,114 --> 00:11:01,453
Aboard your ship, one uplifted esper became
a megalomaniac... while the other retained humanity.
93
00:11:03,622 --> 00:11:04,790
And which are you?
94
00:11:06,083 --> 00:11:07,626
I follow "Sas-tar-po-harn."
95
00:11:09,170 --> 00:11:14,967
A human spiritual movement that follows
the pacifist teachings of Surak
and T'Mord of Vulcan.
96
00:11:15,467 --> 00:11:20,389
- Psychologically unsuitable espers were
excluded from this project.
- About my original question:
97
00:11:21,849 --> 00:11:22,766
What happened here?
98
00:11:27,021 --> 00:11:35,779
A cloaked vessel arrived. They overwhelmed the lab.
Destroyed the ship sent here to investigate.
99
00:11:36,405 --> 00:11:37,281
The Halifax.
100
00:11:39,700 --> 00:11:43,704
The Romulans vaporized our scientists
and kidnapped the espers.
101
00:11:44,788 --> 00:11:45,664
What about you?
102
00:11:47,708 --> 00:11:50,711
I used my powers to suspend my life signs.
103
00:11:55,132 --> 00:11:56,175
I "played dead."
104
00:11:57,927 --> 00:11:59,803
What do Romulans want with
a bunch of espers?
105
00:12:00,346 --> 00:12:02,264
I believe I can surmise the answer, lieutenant.
106
00:12:03,265 --> 00:12:08,145
Despite my advanced ESP rating, my
experiences with the barrier
failed to uplift me.
107
00:12:09,146 --> 00:12:13,275
I suspect Vulcan physiology renders us
immune to the psionic effects.
108
00:12:13,984 --> 00:12:16,946
- And, if Vulcans cannot be uplifted...
- Then neither can Romulans.
109
00:12:19,281 --> 00:12:23,285
They want to use the kidnapped espers
to form an attack force.
110
00:12:23,827 --> 00:12:27,122
But not against us, captain.
Against the Romulan Praetor.
111
00:12:27,915 --> 00:12:30,251
They oppose his termination
of the Klingon alliance.
112
00:12:30,584 --> 00:12:33,712
Romulan politics don't concern me.
Getting my people back does.
113
00:12:35,047 --> 00:12:35,756
What's your name?
114
00:12:37,967 --> 00:12:39,093
Lana.
115
00:12:39,551 --> 00:12:41,345
You'll be safe with us, Lana.
116
00:12:41,971 --> 00:12:43,681
SPOCK:
Captain, a word?
117
00:12:47,893 --> 00:12:53,899
If you recall, it was incredibly dangerous
to have Mitchell aboard the Enterprise
after his powers had multiplied.
118
00:12:54,566 --> 00:12:59,697
If we leave Lana here, she will remain
as we intended HIM to be:
Isolated, where she could do no harm.
119
00:13:00,239 --> 00:13:01,907
You heard her Spock. She's a pacifist.
120
00:13:02,700 --> 00:13:05,911
Besides, if we're going to pursue a
Romulan ship full of espers --
121
00:13:06,287 --> 00:13:09,748
espers that've been turned --
I want us to have one of our own.
122
00:13:12,042 --> 00:13:13,502
A most logical position.
123
00:13:14,295 --> 00:13:15,296
You sound surprised.
124
00:13:17,131 --> 00:13:19,675
Captain, there is the matter of the
other life form I detected.
125
00:13:20,259 --> 00:13:21,844
SENTEK:
That would be me, commander!
126
00:13:25,264 --> 00:13:26,181
Drop your weapon!
127
00:13:26,807 --> 00:13:30,644
Do you feel confident that you can
shoot me before I kill your captain?
Disarm NOW.
128
00:13:31,103 --> 00:13:33,731
Hold your position, lieutenant!
129
00:13:37,568 --> 00:13:39,862
Surrender is not the Romulan way, captain.
130
00:13:40,863 --> 00:13:45,200
Fire now, and this disruptor will detonate.
I have no quarrel with you.
131
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:49,705
Save yourselves.
But the mutant stays with me.
132
00:13:50,164 --> 00:13:56,211
Given that particular model of firearm, I
believe we have approximately 38 seconds
until a forced-chamber overload.
133
00:13:56,545 --> 00:13:58,380
We will not abandon a Federation citizen!
134
00:13:58,881 --> 00:14:00,674
It seems you have little choice.

- We are on an intercept course.
- Excellent.
141

Admiral, I won't lie. They have a head start.
A good one.
142
00:15:03,862 --> 00:15:06,156
They'll cross into the Neutral Zone before
we can catch them.
143
00:15:07,699 --> 00:15:09,618
A week before my retirement.
144
00:15:12,204 --> 00:15:17,334
Captain, I'm ordering you to pursue those
"karskat" Romulans into the Zone...
145
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:26,510
...all the way to the home worlds if you have to.
Just get the espers back -- no matter what.
Starfleet out.
146
00:15:40,649 --> 00:15:42,943
- Kirk to bridge.
- Spock here.

00:15:45,737 --> 00:15:49,575
Set a course for the Romulan Neutral Zone.
Maximum warp.

- You heard the order lieutenant.
- Yes, sir.

Uhura, transmit this encrypted message
on the following subspace frequency.

- Sir, that carrier wave is only used...
- Please proceed.

Direct any response to my quarters.
154
00:16:29,198 --> 00:16:30,616
Four-oh. Perfect.
155
00:16:31,950 --> 00:16:36,246
I try to take the stairs instead of
levitating whenever I can. Keep in shape.
156

- Captain!
- We're in hot pursuit. We'll get your friends back.
157
00:16:42,544 --> 00:16:43,712
Uh... the Romulan?
158
00:16:44,296 --> 00:16:50,052
He's in our brig. Lana, why was
he still there on Aldebaran III?
159
00:16:51,512 --> 00:16:56,016
I think he's a praetorian spy!
Must've infiltrated the dissidents.
160
00:16:57,142 --> 00:16:59,436
He fled to the hills after they discovered him.
161
00:17:00,479 --> 00:17:05,025
We were the only people at the lab
for weeks. Our paths crossed frequently.
162
00:17:05,734 --> 00:17:06,401
Do you trust him?
163
00:17:07,110 --> 00:17:08,570
About as far as I can throw him.
164
00:17:09,655 --> 00:17:12,533
Which -- in your case -- I'd wager is pretty far.
165
00:17:15,994 --> 00:17:18,121
Why didn't you use your abilities
to subdue him?
166
00:17:19,498 --> 00:17:26,755
He has tremendous innate powers.
And as I told you, captain... I am
a strict pacifist.
167
00:17:27,631 --> 00:17:31,468
I do not utilize my abilities to harm others
unless they pose a direct threat.
168
00:17:32,344 --> 00:17:37,099
Bones. Speaking of "direct threats"...
we'll be engaging the Romulan ship soon.
169
00:17:37,849 --> 00:17:39,560
I hope I don't have to call on you, but...
170
00:17:40,060 --> 00:17:42,187
If I had a credit for every time you said that.
171
00:17:42,729 --> 00:17:46,650
I have the chem lab synthesizing hyronalin.
Best against radiation burns.
172
00:17:47,734 --> 00:17:48,819
SULU ON COMM:
Bridge to captain.
173
00:17:52,155 --> 00:17:53,115
Kirk here. Go ahead, Sulu.
174
00:17:53,407 --> 00:17:55,492
SULU:
The marauder's about to cross
into the Neutral Zone.
175
00:17:55,993 --> 00:17:57,619
Sound battle stations. I'm on my way.
176
00:18:07,296 --> 00:18:09,006
How long until the Neutral Zone boundary?
177
00:18:10,090 --> 00:18:11,216
SULU:
Ten seconds.
178
00:18:11,717 --> 00:18:15,512
- Lieutenant?
- Our orders recorded and logged, sir.
- Five seconds.
179
00:18:16,471 --> 00:18:17,472
Stay sharp, everyone.
180
00:18:19,099 --> 00:18:22,853
COMPUTER:
Warning -- treaty violation.
Warning -- treaty violation.
181
00:18:23,145 --> 00:18:24,479
Mute that, Uhura.
182
00:18:25,814 --> 00:18:29,860
- On course for Romulan space.
- Keep an even hand on the tiller, Sulu.
183
00:18:34,448 --> 00:18:37,409
Out of the frying pan... into the fire.
184
00:18:46,752 --> 00:18:48,086
Scanning to one-half parsec.
185
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,841
There's no sign of the marauder, captain.
She could be cloaked.
186
00:18:54,843 --> 00:18:57,554
- I've got something on motion sensors!
- Can we get a phaser lock?
187
00:18:57,846 --> 00:18:59,139
No sir -- but he's out there.
188
00:18:59,556 --> 00:19:02,517
See if you can boost the directional beam.
We need surgical precision.
189
00:19:03,268 --> 00:19:05,812
Try to take out his engines without
endangering the habitat module.
190
00:19:06,104 --> 00:19:09,358
- Captain, a Romulan ship is
decloaking off our port bow!
- Shields to maximum.
191
00:19:09,691 --> 00:19:12,486
T'liss-class imperial bird-of-prey.
I have wisual.
192
00:19:18,575 --> 00:19:19,451
The marauder?
193
00:19:20,077 --> 00:19:23,622
Negative. The vessel is registered
as the I.R.W. Hawk's Talon.
194
00:19:27,876 --> 00:19:29,419
Captain, we're being hailed.
195
00:19:47,771 --> 00:19:48,522
Commander.
196
00:19:49,356 --> 00:19:52,234
I received Mr. Spock's message
requesting a parley.
197
00:19:55,779 --> 00:20:01,284
Yet the fact remains: the Enterprise violated
interstellar law by entering Romulan space.
198
00:20:03,829 --> 00:20:08,291
Shall we call it "war" now, Captain Kirk?
Or wait for an official declaration?
199
00:20:15,132 --> 00:20:18,343
Contacting the Romulans, Spock?
THAT Romulan?
200
00:20:19,094 --> 00:20:22,305
On your own initiative? What were you
thinking? Why didn't you ask me?
201
00:20:23,098 --> 00:20:25,392
- You would not have agreed.
- Damn right I wouldn't have agreed!
202
00:20:27,769 --> 00:20:30,522
You're lucky I don't rip one of those
stripes right off your sleeve.
203
00:20:31,398 --> 00:20:38,155
Captain, I became aware of reports that
Charvanek was granted command of a new
bird-of-prey after she was repatriated.
204
00:20:39,072 --> 00:20:45,620
I am confident, once I speak with her,
that she will see the wisdom of assisting
us in pursuing the Romulan dissidents.
205
00:20:46,955 --> 00:20:50,667
- She and I have a rapport.
- A "rapport."
206
00:20:55,881 --> 00:20:56,715
Bring her aboard.
207
00:20:59,342 --> 00:20:59,968
Spock.
208
00:21:02,471 --> 00:21:07,142
You have 30 minutes. I hope that's
enough time for your... rapport.
209
00:21:26,703 --> 00:21:30,165
- Welcome aboard the Enterprise... again.
- Captain.
210
00:21:30,957 --> 00:21:34,544
Mr. Dickerson, please conduct the
lieutenant to guest quarters.
211
00:21:35,045 --> 00:21:35,754
Aye, sir.
212
00:21:51,686 --> 00:21:58,109
- "Jolan tru."
- And should I greet you as your people would?
"Live long and prosper"?
213
00:21:58,902 --> 00:22:00,028
You may greet me as you wish.
214
00:22:00,862 --> 00:22:03,365
Human lore would suggest I offer "the other cheek."
215
00:22:04,616 --> 00:22:11,289
I confess... the humans did treat me well.
Still, I was surprised the exchange
was arranged so quickly.
216
00:22:11,706 --> 00:22:17,546
Logic dictated that your return would
entice your Praetor to release the
Tellarite merchants held on Remus.
217
00:22:17,963 --> 00:22:19,464
You mean the Tellarite SPIES.
218
00:22:20,382 --> 00:22:24,302
They would have sold the information
they acquired. My terminology is apt.
219
00:22:25,178 --> 00:22:28,181
Hmm... Now who is being clever, Spock?
220
00:22:29,766 --> 00:22:35,105
Your Praetor would seem quite loyal to you.
Is your loyalty to him as great?
221
00:22:36,898 --> 00:22:39,651
Commander, he needs your help.
222
00:22:41,111 --> 00:22:42,904
I need your help.
223
00:22:46,741 --> 00:22:52,956
Your father negotiated the arrangement
that led to my return. The House of Sarek
has my gratitude.
224
00:22:56,501 --> 00:22:59,296
I will aid you... if I can.
225
00:23:03,300 --> 00:23:05,343
KIRK:
Commander, I appreciate your assistance.
226
00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:09,723
ROMULAN COMMANDER:
Spock mentioned Romulan dissidents and
kidnapped humans with psionic abilities.
227
00:23:10,765 --> 00:23:13,184
Our intelligence sources know
nothing of these "marauders."
228
00:23:14,102 --> 00:23:17,898
In order to track them, I will need their
ships' configurations. Armaments.
229
00:23:18,231 --> 00:23:20,567
Then we are -- to use an Earth expression -- "in luck."
230
00:23:21,067 --> 00:23:23,945
We apprehended a Romulan commander on Aldebaran III...
231
00:23:24,362 --> 00:23:27,949
...an undercover member of the vessel's crew
still loyal to the Praetor.
232
00:23:38,209 --> 00:23:39,961
"Jolan tru."
233
00:23:40,879 --> 00:23:45,216
I have never seen this individual before!
He is certainly no Romulan commander.
234
00:23:45,634 --> 00:23:47,135
Are you sure?
235
00:23:53,642 --> 00:23:55,268
Transporter room, what the hell's going on?!
236
00:23:56,645 --> 00:23:59,356
I beamed the prisoner out of the brig --
just as you ordered, sir.
237
00:23:59,814 --> 00:24:01,358
Dammit, chief! I gave no such order!
238
00:24:01,733 --> 00:24:07,197
Captain, I know my fleet as well as you
know yours. That man was an imposter!
239
00:24:07,739 --> 00:24:10,575
An imposter... who's now on the loose.
240
00:24:24,506 --> 00:24:28,802
Captain, I swear I received orders to transport
the prisoner. I just... I don't know where.
241
00:24:29,260 --> 00:24:34,182
Sir, the targeting scanner's memory logs
have been erased. But the imposter
could not have traveled far.
242
00:24:34,683 --> 00:24:38,019
Our shields have been at full power since
Commander Charvanek beamed aboard.
243
00:24:38,395 --> 00:24:43,149
- Then he's still on the Enterprise.
- Dickerson, I need security teams on all decks.
244
00:24:43,817 --> 00:24:45,235
SCOTT ON COMM:
Intruder alert! Main engineering!
245
00:24:45,735 --> 00:24:46,945
Looks like we found our man.
246
00:24:57,580 --> 00:25:01,751
Sir! The mains are going offline!
247
00:25:05,130 --> 00:25:07,173
Hold your fire! He's released
the electro-plasma!
248
00:25:08,466 --> 00:25:09,217
Hand-to-hand!
249
00:25:11,845 --> 00:25:12,929
Gotcha, ya lovely.
250
00:25:37,328 --> 00:25:38,038
Clear!
251
00:26:01,728 --> 00:26:06,191
If the nerve pinch was as you described,
Charvanek will be incapacitated for
at least 3 hours.
252
00:26:06,483 --> 00:26:10,779
We don't have that kind of time, doctor.
Her second-in-command wants
her returned immediately.
253
00:26:11,112 --> 00:26:13,031
They ARE better equipped to
treat her than we are.
254
00:26:15,325 --> 00:26:19,662
Burke, prepare the commander for transport.
What's HIS status?
255
00:26:20,497 --> 00:26:24,584
I'm keeping him under. Pulse 200, blood pressure 20/10.
256
00:26:24,959 --> 00:26:29,297
- Romulan or Vulcan, they read the same.
- Vulcan?
257
00:26:31,091 --> 00:26:32,300
The pressure hold he administered.
258
00:26:33,676 --> 00:26:35,136
Spock's "Vulcan death grip."
259
00:26:35,762 --> 00:26:39,349
McCOY:
Bingo. I've been doing some digging.
260
00:26:40,391 --> 00:26:46,606
The Aldebaran colony's last census listed
one Vulcan. A male anthropologist
named Sentek.
261
00:26:47,816 --> 00:26:54,781
There's more, Jim. Federation records show
that he's married to our friend Lana.
And his ESP rating is through the roof.
262
00:26:55,490 --> 00:26:59,410
He's got natural psionic abilities way
beyond normal -- even for a Vulcan.
263
00:26:59,869 --> 00:27:03,206
If his powers are already so strong,
why go to an esper lab?
264
00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:05,667
Maybe... to find a mate.
265
00:27:07,794 --> 00:27:12,090
A human esper. One that could be uplifted
by the barrier... become his equal.
266
00:27:12,382 --> 00:27:15,385
And one who's already embraced
Vulcan philosophy.
267
00:27:15,969 --> 00:27:19,514
Wanna bet Lana's trip into the barrier
wasn't authorized by Starfleet?
268
00:27:27,313 --> 00:27:33,403
To see all the scientists killed...
to have everyone like you taken prisoner.
269
00:27:34,904 --> 00:27:36,406
It must have been very difficult.
270
00:27:39,951 --> 00:27:48,251
Colleagues, neighbors, friends...
Awful.
271
00:27:50,545 --> 00:27:53,131
It's important to allow yourself
time to grieve, Lana.
272
00:27:55,049 --> 00:27:56,885
I'd like to try and help if I can.
273
00:28:01,723 --> 00:28:06,227
That was a brilliant performance.
We know about you and Sentek.
274
00:28:07,937 --> 00:28:09,314
Why don't you try the TRUTH this time?
275
00:28:09,981 --> 00:28:15,111
- Captain, she's been through a terrible ordeal.
- She scripted the ordeal, counselor!
276
00:28:15,653 --> 00:28:18,072
Didn't you, Lana?
You and your husband.
277
00:28:19,365 --> 00:28:22,327
He wasn't going to commit suicide
with that disruptor overload at all.
278
00:28:23,203 --> 00:28:27,081
He was trying to blow up the lab entrance so
we couldn't find out what REALLY happened.
279
00:28:36,174 --> 00:28:38,885
Human evoluton has stalled, captain.
280
00:28:40,970 --> 00:28:50,969
A typical man of 2270 -- like you -- is no different
physically from a Cro-Magnon of 100,000 years ago.
281
00:28:54,317 --> 00:28:58,446
But WE are.
We are superior.
282
00:29:01,074 --> 00:29:05,995
I thought you said absolute power
only corrupts selectively.
283
00:29:06,955 --> 00:29:11,417
And SELECTION -- whether natural or artificial --
is the engine of evolution.
284
00:29:13,962 --> 00:29:17,131
Your kind should embrace your fate.
285
00:29:19,509 --> 00:29:25,056
Instead, you try to control us.
Use us.
286
00:29:33,273 --> 00:29:34,190
Chief.
287
00:29:43,241 --> 00:29:47,745
Why do you suppose the Preservers
erected a barrier around our galaxy?
288
00:29:48,705 --> 00:29:51,791
Why? Hell, probably to contain us.
289
00:29:52,250 --> 00:29:54,752
To keep violence from spilling
into the universe.
290
00:29:56,045 --> 00:30:01,551
No. It was so that naturally superior
individuals could be uplifted...
291
00:30:02,051 --> 00:30:04,554
...once we had the technology to
venture into the stars.
292
00:30:05,513 --> 00:30:06,931
You don't know what gods think!
293
00:30:08,641 --> 00:30:11,477
Yes. I do.
294
00:30:31,873 --> 00:30:36,210
SMITH:
Still no sign of the marauder.
He was there... and then he wasn't.
295
00:30:38,004 --> 00:30:38,838
Subcommander?
296
00:30:39,714 --> 00:30:45,053
Subspace scan completed. We find no
evidence of a cloaked vessel, Enterprise.
297
00:30:46,763 --> 00:30:48,222
The sensor logs you requested.
298
00:30:49,349 --> 00:30:54,395
Our trace of the Romulan kidnappers
disappeared after Sentek lost consciousness
and Lana was put in the brig.
299
00:30:55,646 --> 00:31:00,193
So that's why he tried to disable the power
grid: to prevent us from realizing
the ship was an illusion!
300
00:31:00,693 --> 00:31:01,694
TAL:
So it would seem.
301
00:31:07,450 --> 00:31:10,578
Mr. Palmer, run a level 3 diagnostic on
our long-range sensors.
302
00:31:11,245 --> 00:31:13,748
- Let's see how badly they've been compromised.
- Yes sir.
303
00:31:14,874 --> 00:31:22,548
Lt. Sulu... if there is no "Romulan
marauder," then the Enterprise entered
our space without provocation.
304
00:31:23,591 --> 00:31:25,510
Starfleet is clearly the aggressor.
305
00:31:25,968 --> 00:31:28,137
Subcommander, that's for diplomats
to decide. For now...
306
00:31:28,554 --> 00:31:33,267
For now, you will stand down and
surrender to the Romulan Star Empire!
307
00:31:34,936 --> 00:31:38,356
Sir, the bird-of-prey is charging
its plasma weapon!
308
00:31:38,940 --> 00:31:41,818
Captain Kirk to the bridge.
309
00:31:42,193 --> 00:31:44,570
Go ahead, Tal. Open fire.
310
00:31:45,279 --> 00:31:49,700
And tell your Praetor why you destroyed a
Federation starship instead of capturing it.
311
00:31:50,076 --> 00:31:54,539
Your ship's mission is about to end.
It is scheduled to return to Earth...
312
00:31:54,956 --> 00:31:59,460
...and our sources inform us only 3 other
ships of its class remain in service.
313
00:32:00,586 --> 00:32:03,464
We have no interest in obsolete technology.
314
00:32:05,216 --> 00:32:06,426
"Obsolete"?!
315
00:32:07,927 --> 00:32:13,349
A shame. Unlike you, lieutenant, your
Mr. Spock had an agreeable cunning.
316
00:32:14,350 --> 00:32:17,186
May his "katra" find its way to "Vorta Vor."
317
00:32:21,190 --> 00:32:23,192
Evasive maneuvers! Brace for impact!
318
00:32:23,484 --> 00:32:26,863
Romulan weapon reaching
full charge in 3... 2...1...
319
00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:47,008
- Why haven't you fired?!
- Subcommander, I HAVE!
320
00:32:49,010 --> 00:32:50,136
Stand aside!
321
00:33:02,648 --> 00:33:05,985
Scans show their plasma torpedo
fully charged and operational.
322
00:33:06,777 --> 00:33:10,781
- Why didn't they fire?
- I'm betting they think they did.
323
00:33:12,241 --> 00:33:17,121
Subcommander! Power down
our weapons immediately!
324
00:33:17,872 --> 00:33:21,292
Sir. You have recovered sufficiently
to return to duty?
325
00:33:22,043 --> 00:33:25,963
The second time you've had to
relinquish command back to me, isn't it?
326
00:33:26,422 --> 00:33:28,007
Your glory is mine, commander.
327
00:33:28,716 --> 00:33:33,346
Tal, we will assist the Enterprise in
its mission. Is that understood?
328
00:33:33,888 --> 00:33:36,098
Commander, we have them!
Here in Romulan space!
329
00:33:36,390 --> 00:33:42,605
I have no intention of permitting human
espers -- nor Romulan dissidents -- to attack
the Praetor. Or worse.
330
00:33:43,481 --> 00:33:50,488
I suspect there is a greater plan here. A plan
that may jeopardize both the Federation
and our Star Empire.
331
00:33:50,821 --> 00:33:52,907
Your loyalty to the Praetor is admirable.
332
00:33:53,449 --> 00:33:55,910
As, I assume, is yours.
333
00:33:57,662 --> 00:33:59,080
Absolutely, commander.
334
00:34:05,461 --> 00:34:06,295
What's our status?
335
00:34:06,837 --> 00:34:10,466
DRAKE:
Mr. Scott enhanced the forcefield with the ship's
shield grid. Nobody's gonna beam through that.
336
00:34:10,883 --> 00:34:13,761
- Indeed. Rather ingenious.
- I'd expect nothing less.
337
00:34:16,556 --> 00:34:20,309
Sulu says you fooled Subcommander Tal into
thinking his weapons malfunctioned.
338
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:24,188
No need to thank me, captain.
339
00:34:24,522 --> 00:34:28,734
Just like you fooled US into thinking
Romulans kidnapped the espers.
340
00:34:30,736 --> 00:34:32,655
Your people STOLE the Halifax, didn't they?
341
00:34:35,408 --> 00:34:37,660
You knew Starfleet would send
another ship to investigate.
342
00:34:38,828 --> 00:34:42,415
Sooner or later, we'd track them down.
So you and Sentek stayed behind --
343
00:34:42,873 --> 00:34:49,714
projected that illusion of a marauding vessel --
to buy your compatriots the time they need to
make it to the galactic barrier.
344
00:34:51,465 --> 00:34:54,760
Simple humans are so easy to deceive.
345
00:34:55,761 --> 00:34:59,849
They can be tricked into
doing almost anything.
346
00:35:06,856 --> 00:35:08,399
Like shutting down their own life support.
347
00:35:13,321 --> 00:35:16,824
The Hood. My God... that's
what happened to the Hood!
348
00:35:17,158 --> 00:35:17,658
Why?
349
00:35:18,409 --> 00:35:19,660
Lana, why?
350
00:35:22,496 --> 00:35:24,123
To see if we could.
351
00:35:27,293 --> 00:35:34,800
There's nothing you -- or anyone -- can do now.
My brethren will be uplifted by the barrier.
352
00:35:36,427 --> 00:35:42,224
Even the great James T. Kirk
will be brought to his knees.
353
00:35:52,568 --> 00:35:56,530
Captain's log, supplemental. What have I done
bringing an esper mutant on board?
354
00:35:57,156 --> 00:35:59,950
I've been exhausted -- but has
my judgment been compromised?
355
00:36:00,493 --> 00:36:02,578
Have I put my ship at unnecessary risk?
356
00:36:03,329 --> 00:36:06,415
In the hopes that my senior staff can
provide some insight,
357
00:36:06,916 --> 00:36:10,169
I've assembled those who were present
when we first crossed the barrier...
358
00:36:10,711 --> 00:36:12,463
...what seems like an eternity ago.
359
00:36:13,047 --> 00:36:16,801
SPOCK:
Ladies and gentlemen, I direct your
attention to stardate 1312.
360
00:36:17,677 --> 00:36:22,682
The so-called "galactic barrier." A field composed
of negative energy surrounding our galaxy.
361
00:36:23,140 --> 00:36:24,225
Effectively encasing it.
362
00:36:25,059 --> 00:36:27,353
Early in the Enterprise's five-year mission,
363
00:36:28,229 --> 00:36:34,985
I ordered us across the barrier to investigate
the disappearance of an old Earth vessel
some 200 years earlier.
364
00:36:35,820 --> 00:36:37,321
I think we all remember what happened.
365
00:36:37,822 --> 00:36:39,490
Except for those of us that weren't yet aboard.
366
00:36:40,533 --> 00:36:45,955
We've read the reports, captain.
Two crewmembers with high ESP ratings
had their abilities altered.
367
00:36:46,956 --> 00:36:50,209
Correction. Their abilities
BOOSTED. Exponentially.
368
00:36:52,461 --> 00:36:57,174
So, when the Halifax reaches that barrier
with all of those espers on board...
369
00:36:57,675 --> 00:37:00,094
Counselor, that is precisely
what we must prevent.
370
00:37:01,345 --> 00:37:05,349
It is logical that the espers will endeavor
to enter the galactic barrier here,
371
00:37:06,267 --> 00:37:08,269
at the point nearest the Aldebaran system.
372
00:37:08,811 --> 00:37:12,022
The Halifax is a low-warp ship.
That journey would take weeks.
373
00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:16,152
But it's been weeks since they stole the
wessel. What if they already made it?
374
00:37:17,820 --> 00:37:23,367
Lt. Smith... As I recall, you were
holding Commander Mitchell's hand
when the crossing occurred.
375
00:37:24,201 --> 00:37:29,373
Any insight you can provide?
Anything unique you may have
experienced via physical contact?
376
00:37:33,753 --> 00:37:36,005
Nothing I didn't put in my report, sir.
377
00:37:36,630 --> 00:37:40,259
Mr. Spock, defeating one god was hard enough. But a ship full of
'em...!
378
00:37:40,593 --> 00:37:42,636
They're not "gods," Scotty.
They're just humans.
379
00:37:43,763 --> 00:37:47,224
Even with all his power, Gary was still
susceptible to human frailty.
380
00:37:47,850 --> 00:37:50,394
Hell, he couldn't even
remember my middle name.
381
00:37:50,936 --> 00:37:54,940
Precisely. An uplifted esper's strength
weakens as it is expended.
382
00:37:55,483 --> 00:38:00,362
Then we must use that to our advantage.
Strike first -- before they grow stronger.
383
00:38:01,030 --> 00:38:02,782
We're not out to defeat them, commander.
384
00:38:04,408 --> 00:38:08,662
They're Federation citizens... our brothers,
sisters... even if they are misguided.
385
00:38:12,124 --> 00:38:13,709
Consider this a rescue mission.
386
00:38:14,335 --> 00:38:18,798
PALMER ON COMM:
Captain, transmission from the U.S.S. Kongo.
They've picked up the Halifax's ion trail.
387
00:38:19,215 --> 00:38:22,593
Transfer it to this computer. And tell
Captain Azmi we'll be joining the chase.
388
00:38:23,636 --> 00:38:24,970
You heard her. Get to work.
389
00:38:32,144 --> 00:38:37,525
Sir, even at maximum sustainable speed,
we can't catch the Halifax before it
enters the barrier.
390
00:38:38,025 --> 00:38:38,692
Commander.
391
00:38:43,572 --> 00:38:44,990
What are your ship's warp capabilities?
392
00:38:45,741 --> 00:38:50,204
Our birds-of-prey do not utilize what
you refer to as "warp power."
393
00:38:51,205 --> 00:38:53,332
We use other methods to
travel faster than light.
394
00:38:53,958 --> 00:39:00,256
Indeed. There is speculation that Romulans
employ confined quantum singularities
to bend space.
395
00:39:02,258 --> 00:39:03,384
I cannot confirm that.
396
00:39:04,426 --> 00:39:08,848
What if a traditional warp field and the fold
from an artificial singularity OVERLAPPED?
397
00:39:11,392 --> 00:39:14,311
A background in astro-sciences comes in
handy when you're a helm officer.
398
00:39:17,982 --> 00:39:22,319
- It may be possible.
- Sulu, you're a genius.
399
00:39:23,195 --> 00:39:24,697
Who am I to argue with you, sir.
400
00:39:25,197 --> 00:39:27,783
Work with Scotty and the Romulan
engineers to enhance our velocity.
401
00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:32,371
Let's see how fast we can
get our girl to go.
402
00:39:44,466 --> 00:39:46,302
Lower your deflectors, Enterprise.
403
00:39:47,094 --> 00:39:50,222
- Mr. Chekov?
- Shields down.
- Tractor beam standing by.
404
00:39:51,348 --> 00:39:54,018
Activate tractors.
Extend superluminal fold.
405
00:40:07,990 --> 00:40:11,327
Scott to bridge! I've routed the
primary tractor beam through the shuttle bay.
406
00:40:11,660 --> 00:40:14,413
But captain... she's not designed to
take this sort a' strain for long!
407
00:40:14,830 --> 00:40:19,543
You always say that... and she always does.
Mr. Smith?
408
00:40:20,628 --> 00:40:21,545
Punch it.
409
00:40:22,296 --> 00:40:23,088
Yes sir!
410
00:40:36,894 --> 00:40:38,437
Six different systems red-lining!
411
00:40:38,771 --> 00:40:40,940
KIRK ON COMM:
Let them red-line!
412
00:40:41,231 --> 00:40:42,983
Aye. Me poor bairns.
413
00:41:46,296 --> 00:41:47,631
Well I'll be damned...
414
00:41:54,805 --> 00:41:56,724
Sir, galactic barrier dead ahead.
415
00:41:57,016 --> 00:41:58,809
Signal the Hawk's Talon.
Full stop.
416
00:42:20,873 --> 00:42:24,918
As before, sensors and deflectors
yield inexplicable readings.
417
00:42:25,294 --> 00:42:29,256
[OVER COMM] Charvanek to Enterprise.
She's fiercely beautiful, isn't she?
418
00:42:29,757 --> 00:42:32,634
Indeed she is. And deadly
419
00:42:34,261 --> 00:42:38,766
- Sir, we're picking up a wessel at the barrier.
- Full mag.
420
00:42:46,106 --> 00:42:48,776
Identification confirmed: S.S. Halifax.
421
00:42:50,861 --> 00:42:51,737
Ship-to-ship.
422
00:42:54,031 --> 00:42:55,449
UHURA:
Hailing frequencies open.
423
00:42:57,326 --> 00:42:59,745
This is Captain James Kirk of the Starship Enterprise.
424
00:43:02,372 --> 00:43:03,499
We are here to render aid.
425
00:43:05,167 --> 00:43:08,170
I understand that you have grievances,
and we offer our services
426
00:43:08,670 --> 00:43:10,214
as go-betweens with Starfleet Command.
427
00:43:11,715 --> 00:43:16,553
But it is crucial that you DO NOT
enter the barrier. Please reply.
428
00:43:24,937 --> 00:43:28,482
- Uhura, anything?
- Just silence.
429
00:43:32,653 --> 00:43:33,821
There is no one aboard.
430
00:43:35,114 --> 00:43:39,868
Captain, we're detecting another ship nearby.
A starship!
431
00:43:52,297 --> 00:43:58,303
Scanning. It is the Kongo, sir. We are
receiving anomalous readings.
432
00:43:59,096 --> 00:43:59,805
Specify.
433
00:44:00,681 --> 00:44:03,559
It would appear there are only about
two-dozen life forms aboard.
434
00:44:06,311 --> 00:44:08,021
I've tied into the Kongo's bridge, captain.
435
00:44:09,064 --> 00:44:09,731
Put it on screen.
436
00:44:39,469 --> 00:44:43,098
You're too late, captain.
Relinquish command...
437
00:44:43,849 --> 00:44:47,561
...or the Enterprise will suffer
the same fate as the Hood!
438
00:46:20,279 --> 00:46:22,197
