This is all a damned inconvenience. 30 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:59,200 While you're settling in on the Titan, 31 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,000 I will be training my new first officer. 32 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:03,800 You know him. 33 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:09,200 He's a tyrannical martinet who will never, ever allow me to go on away missions! 34 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,800 That is the regulation, sir.

What can you be afraid of? 75 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:59,000 I'm picking up an odd electromagnetic signature from the Kolarin system. 76 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:02,200 - What sort of signature? - Positronic. 77 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:15,200 I�s very faint but I've isolated it to the third planet in the Kolarin system. 78 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,000 - What do we know? - Uncharted. 79 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:21,600 - We'll have to get closer for more detail. - Theories? 80 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:25,600 Positronic signatures are only known to emanate from androids. 81 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:29,200 It is logical to theorise there is an android on Kolarus III. 82 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,000 Just what I feared. Captain? 83 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:36,800 Diverting there takes us close to the Romulan Neutral Zone. 84 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:43,600 I�s still well on our side. I think... 85 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:48,400 ...i�s worth a look. Don't worry, Number One. 86 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:52,200 - We'll have you to Betazed in time. - Thank you, sir. 87 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:56,000 Where we will all honour the Betazoid tradition. 88 00:09:56,200 --> 00:10:01,400 Now, if you'll excuse me, I'll be in the gym. 89 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:10,400 Mr Branson, lay in a course for the Kolarin system, warp five. 90 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:17,000 What do you think, Data?

That ion storm doesn't look neighbourly. 95 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:56,400 - It could head our way without warning. - Understood. 96 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:06,000 - Data, Mr Worf, you're with me. - I needn't remind you... 97 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:11,200 I appreciate your concern, Number One, but I've been itching to try the Argo. 98 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:12,600 I'll bet. 99 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:16,400 Captain's prerogative.

Mr Troi. 102 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:33,200 I am puzzled by the human predilection for piloting vehicles at unsafe velocities. 103 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:41,600 Over that rise, sir, half a kilometre. 104 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:08,000 The electromagnetic field is disrupting my tricorder. 105 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:12,600 - We're within metres of the signal. - Fan out. Le�s search around. 106 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:54,400 - It appears to be a robotic arm. - Very astute. 107 00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:57,600 Bring it to the vehicle. 108 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:31,600 This doesn't feel right. 109 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:41,200 The final signature is 100 metres north. 110 00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:16,400 - I�s you. - The resemblance is striking. 111 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:29,200 Fascinating. 112 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:34,800 To the vehicle! 113 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:44,400 I think i�s time to try some unsafe velocities. 114 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,800 Why do you have a shiny head? 115 00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:08,800 - Conversation isn't appropriate. - Why? 116 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:12,400 - The captain has to concentrate. - Why? 117 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:13,800 - Because... - Data! 118 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:16,000 Sorry, sir. 119 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:20,600 Have I said something wrong? 120 00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:08,200 You know, all things considered, Data, I think you have nicer eyes. 121 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:13,200 Our eyes are identical, Doctor. 122 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:17,400 - So what have we got, Geordi? - Well... 123 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:21,400 ...his mechanics are like Data's, with less positronic development. 124 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:25,800 The neural pathways aren't as sophisticated. I'd say he's a prototype. 125 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:29,400 Something Dr Soong created prior to Data. 126 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:34,000 - Do you have a name, sir? - I am...

How would you like a trip to Romulus? 140 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:52,400 - With or without the fleet? - A diplomatic mission. 141 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:58,200 We're invited, believe it or not. There's been an internal political shake up. 142 00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:03,200 The new Praetor, Shinzon, has requested a Federation envoy. 143 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:06,400 - New Praetor? - Here's more. He's Reman. 144 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:11,400 Believe me, we don't understand it either. You're the closest ship. 145 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:15,600 Go and hear what he has to say. Get the lay of the land. 146 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:19,600 An unstable Empire could mean trouble for the quadrant. 147 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:23,400 - Understood. - We're sending you all our intelligence. 148 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:28,000 But i�s not much. I don't need to tell you to watch your back. 149 00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:31,000 - Hardly. - The Son'a, the Borg, 150 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:34,600 the Romulans... you get all the easy assignments. 151 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:40,000 - Just lucky, Admiral. - Le�s hope it holds.

Engage. 155 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:15,200 As you can see, one side of Remus always faces the sun. 156 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:20,400 Due to the extreme temperatures on that half, the Remans live on the dark side. 157 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,600 Little is known of the Reman homeworld, 158 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:30,400 although scans have revealed dilithium mining and heavy weapons construction. 159 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:36,600 The Remans themselves are considered an undesirable caste in the Empire. 160 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,600 They're said to be formidable warriors. 161 00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:44,400 In the Dominion War, Reman troops were used as assault forces. 162 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:48,200 - Cannon fodder. - How did a Reman get to be Praetor? 163 00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:51,200 - I don't get it. - Romulan collaborators? 164 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:54,800 - Coup ��tat? - The Praetor's power is their fleet. 165 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:58,200 They must have been behind Shinzon. 166 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:01,200 What have we learned about Shinzon? 167 00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:07,600 Only a part of his military record. He is young and a capable commander. 168 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,800 He won 12 major engagements in the war. 169 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:16,800 - Beyond that, we know nothing. - Well, we're sailing into the unknown. 170 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:22,200 Keep at it. Give me anything you can. Dismissed. 171 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:28,400 I still can't believe the captain went along with a memory download. 172 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,400 He agrees that the B-4 probably has 173 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:35,600 the same self-actualisation parameters as myself. 174 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:40,800 If my memory engrams are successfully integrated into his positronic matrix, 175 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:46,200 - he should have all my abilities. - He'd have all your memories as well. 176 00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:50,800 - You feel comfortable with that? - I feel nothing, Geordi. 177 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:56,400 With my memory engrams, he will be able to be a more complete individual. 178 00:22:56,600 --> 00:23:00,200 - An individual more like you, you mean? - Yes. 179 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:09,800 Maybe he's not supposed to be like you. Maybe he's supposed to be as he is. 180 00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:16,800 That might be so, but he should have the opportunity to explore his potential. 181 00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:22,000 OK, we're done. 182 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:35,200 - B-4, do you know where you are? - I am in a room with lights. 183 00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,600 Remember our father? 184 00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:44,800 - Our father? - Yes, Dr Soong. 185 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:51,400 - No. - Do you know the name of the captain? 186 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:54,400 No. 187 00:23:57,200 --> 00:24:00,800 Data, he's assimilating a lot of programming. 188 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:04,000 He's a lot less sophisticated than you. 189 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:09,200 We don't know if his matrix will be able to adapt. We need to give him time. 190 00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:13,600 Geordi, what purpose does this serve? 191 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:16,000 - What? - This. 192 00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:19,600 A redundant memory port. Maybe the provisional storage 193 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:22,400 is in case his neural pathways overload. 194 00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:25,800 Mind if I keep him here? Run a few diagnostics? 195 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:28,000 I do not mind. 196 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:31,400 - Data! - No. 197 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:35,200 Remain with Commander La Forge. He will try to help you. 198 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:49,000 Captain's log: Stardate 56844.9. 199 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:54,400 The Enterprise has arrived at Romulus and waits at the designated coordinates. 200 00:24:54,600 --> 00:25:00,200 All our hails have gone unanswered. We've been waiting for 17 hours. 201 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:09,200 - Counsellor? - They're out there, sir. 202 00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:31,200 - Captain! Recommend we raise shields. - Not yet, Mr Worf. 203 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:36,400 With due respect to diplomatic protocol, the Federation Council isn't here. 204 00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:41,000 - We are. - Patience.

But I never knew you were so beautiful. 231 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,400 You're quite familiar with our personnel. 232 00:28:56,600 --> 00:29:02,000 I am, Commander Riker. May I touch your hair? 233 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:06,600 We came to Romulus on a matter we were assured was of great importance. 234 00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:12,600 If you have anything to say to us as Federation representatives, do it now. 235 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:17,600 Yes, I'm sorry, Captain. There is so much we need to talk about. 236 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:24,000 - I would be interested to know what. - Unity, Captain! 237 00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:28,800 Tearing down the walls between us to recognise that we are one. 238 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,400 I'm talking of the thing that makes us the same. 239 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:37,800 Peace. We want peace. 240 00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:46,600 You're thinking this all sounds too good to be true, 241 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:51,000 but that the chance for peace is too promising to ignore. 242 00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:55,200 I'm right? 243 00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:03,400 - Yes. - Perhaps i�s time to add illumination. 244 00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:07,000 Computer, raise the lighting four levels. 245 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:24,400 When I was young I had an odd disease. 246 00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:30,000 I developed a hyper-sensitivity to sound. 247 00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:34,600 Even a whisper caused me agony. No one could do anything. 248 00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:39,200 Finally I was taken to a doctor with experience of Terran illnesses. 249 00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:45,400 And he diagnosed Shalaf�s Syndrome... Do you know of it, Captain? 250 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:52,600 Yes. 251 00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:57,200 Then you know i�s a very rare syndrome. 252 00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:04,000 Genetic. Apparently, all the male members of a family have it. 253 00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:10,000 Eventually I was treated and now I can hear as well as you can, Captain. 254 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:13,600 I can see as well as you can. 255 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:18,200 I can feel everything you feel. 256 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:24,000 In fact, I feel exactly what you feel. 257 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:28,600 Don't I, Jean-Luc? 258 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:34,200 Come to dinner tomorrow on Romulus. Just the two of us. 259 00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:38,000 Or should I say, just the one of us? 260 00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:57,400 I think you'll be wanting this. 261 00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:04,400 Until tomorrow then, Captain. We have much to discuss. 262 00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:11,400 Computer, return lighting to previous level. 263 00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:44,000 There's no doubt. Right down to your strain of Shalaf�s Syndrome. 264 00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:48,600 He's a clone. They probably used a hair follicle or skin cell. 265 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:54,200 - Why? - I intend to find out, Number One. 266 00:32:54,400 --> 00:33:00,600 Inform Starfleet of the situation. I need to know where the hell he came from. 267 00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:03,200 Counsellor. 268 00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:10,000 We supported you, Shinzon, when you assassinated the Senate. 269 00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:16,200 You told us the timing was perfect to attack the Federation. Why the delay? 270 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:18,800 You don't have to understand. 271 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:22,200 Why bring the Enterprise here? 272 00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:25,400 - I have a purpose. - Then enlighten us. 273 00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:28,000 Silence, Romulan! 274 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:38,200 You must learn patience, Commander. 275 00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:43,400 Spend 18 hours every day under the lash of a Romulan guard 276 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:47,600 and you'll soon understand patience. 277 00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:49,600 Now go. 278 00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:00,400 Commander Donatra. 279 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:03,800 Remain. 280 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:16,800 There's a word I want you to consider. 281 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:21,200 Allegiance.

And I think faithfully. 283 00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:33,200 Commander Suran, on the other hand, gives me pause. 284 00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:37,000 Here's another word, Praetor. 285 00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:39,000 Trust. 286 00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:44,400 Do you trust me? 287 00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:47,200 How far does that trust extend? 288 00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:52,200 How deep does it go? 289 00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:56,400 What must a commander do to prove herself faithful? 290 00:34:57,600 --> 00:35:00,000 What must a woman do? 291 00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:07,200 You are not a woman. You are a Romulan. 292 00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:12,600 Serve me faithfully and you will be rewarded. 293 00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:18,200 Keep those lovely eyes on Commander Suran. 294 00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:23,200 And at the first sign of treachery... 295 00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:27,600 Dispose of him. 296 00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:32,800 Then you will have proven yourself. 297 00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:39,400 Now go. 298 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:51,800 Commander! 299 00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:58,600 If you ever touch me again... 300 00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:02,200 ...l'll kill you. 301 00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:15,400 The Romulans had gained possession of your DNA and created me. 302 00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:20,800 And when I was ready, they were going to replace you with me. 303 00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:25,800 Put a Romulan agent at the heart of Starfleet. It was a bold plan. 304 00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:30,200 - What happened? - As happens frequently on Romulus, 305 00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:35,000 a new government came to power and abandoned the plan. 306 00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:39,800 They were afraid I'd be discovered and that it would lead to war. 307 00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:48,800 - Not quite the face you remember. - Not quite. 308 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:56,200 A lifetime of violence will do that. They broke my nose, my jaw. 309 00:37:56,400 --> 00:38:01,400 But so much is the same. The eyes. 310 00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:05,200 - Surely you recognise the eyes? - Yes. 311 00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:11,200 Our eyes reflect our lives, don't they? And yours are so confident. 312 00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:23,400 - So I'm not as tall as you expected? - I'd always hoped I might hit two metres. 313 00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:26,000 As had I. 314 00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:32,000 How did you end up on Remus? 315 00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:36,800 They sent me there to die. 316 00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:41,400 How could a mere human survive the dilithium mines? 317 00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:47,000 Not that it mattered, as I was no longer part of their plans against the Federation. 318 00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:53,600 In those terrible depths lived only the damned. Along with the Reman slaves, 319 00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:57,200 I was condemned to unceasing labour and starvation 320 00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:00,600 under the brutal heel of the Romulan guards. 321 00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:04,000 Only the strongest had any hope of survival. 322 00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:07,200 I was only a child when they took me. 323 00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:10,600 I didn't see the sun or the stars for ten years. 324 00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:17,600 The only thing the Romulan guards hated more than the Remans... 325 00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:19,600 ...was me. 326 00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:27,800 But one man took pity on me, 327 00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:35,000 the man that became my viceroy and protected me from the guards' cruelty. 328 00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:38,200 He taught me how to survive. 329 00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:42,600 And in that dark place, where there was nothing of myself, 330 00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:45,800 I found my Reman brothers. 331 00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:51,200 They showed me the only kindness I've ever known. 332 00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:58,000 - This is all to liberate the Remans? - The single thought behind all I've done. 333 00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:01,600 From secretly building the Scimitar to assembling my army. 334 00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:06,800 Finally coming to Romulus, in force. I knew they'd never give us freedom. 335 00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:11,600 - I would have to take it! - But how many Romulans died for it? 336 00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:19,600 Too many. But finally the Empire is realising that there is a better way. 337 00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:22,600 And that way is peace. 338 00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:30,800 - You don't trust me. - I have no reason to. 339 00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:35,400 You have every reason. If you had lived my life, 340 00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:40,600 and experienced the suffering of my people, you'd be standing where I am. 341 00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:44,800 If you'd lived mine, you'd understand my responsibility to the Federation. 342 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:49,600 I cannot allow my personal feelings to unduly influence my decisions. 343 00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:52,600 All I have are my personal feelings! 344 00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:04,400 I want to know what being human means.

I was reviewing the sensor logs. Look! 366 00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:15,000 When the Scimitar de-cloaked, there was a spike in the tertiary EM band. 367 00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:18,600 You're not going to believe this.

He's going after Earth. 537 01:04:05,600 --> 01:04:10,200 - How can you be certain? - I know how he thinks. 538 01:04:10,400 --> 01:04:13,800 Destroy humanity, you cripple the Federation. 539 01:04:14,200 --> 01:04:18,200 - The Romulans invade. - No way of penetrating his cloak? 540 01:04:18,400 --> 01:04:19,800 No. 541 01:04:21,800 --> 01:04:25,400 He could be close to every Starfleet ship and they'd never know. 542 01:04:28,200 --> 01:04:32,400 We do have one advantage. He needs your blood to live. 543 01:04:32,800 --> 01:04:37,600 - He might come after you first. - I'm counting on it. 544 01:04:37,800 --> 01:04:41,600 We've been ordered to sector 10-45 to meet our fleet. 545 01:04:41,800 --> 01:04:44,400 - Strength in numbers. - So we hope. 546 01:04:46,400 --> 01:04:50,000 He must not be allowed to use that weapon. 547 01:04:50,200 --> 01:04:53,400 All other concerns are secondary. 548 01:04:56,600 --> 01:04:58,200 Understand? 549 01:05:04,200 --> 01:05:06,400 Yes, sir. 550 01:05:08,000 --> 01:05:12,600 All hands, battle stations. 551 01:05:25,200 --> 01:05:27,800 Initiate the forcefield! 552 01:05:46,200 --> 01:05:51,000 Captain's personal log. We're heading for Federation space at maximum warp. 553 01:05:51,200 --> 01:05:55,200 The crew has responded with the dedication I've come to expect. 554 01:05:55,400 --> 01:06:00,400 Like a thousand other commanders on other battlefields, I wait for the dawn. 555 01:06:22,200 --> 01:06:24,600 How long? 556 01:06:26,800 --> 01:06:32,600 A matter of hours... We must begin the procedure now. 557 01:06:38,600 --> 01:06:41,400 How long until we reach the Rift? 558 01:06:42,800 --> 01:06:45,200 Seven minutes. 559 01:07:04,600 --> 01:07:08,400 Data, wha�s our current position? 560 01:07:11,000 --> 01:07:14,000 How soon until we reach the fleet? 561 01:07:14,200 --> 01:07:20,000 At our current velocity, we will arrive at sector 10-45 in 40 minutes. 562 01:07:27,400 --> 01:07:30,600 "For now we see but through a glass darkly." 563 01:07:31,600 --> 01:07:36,000 - Sir? - He said he's a mirror. 564 01:07:36,200 --> 01:07:38,200 - Of you, sir? - Yes. 565 01:07:40,000 --> 01:07:44,800 I do not agree. Although you share the same genetic structure, 566 01:07:45,000 --> 01:07:47,400 your life has created an individual. 567 01:07:48,200 --> 01:07:53,600 If I had lived his life, is it possible that I would have rejected my humanity? 568 01:07:53,800 --> 01:07:58,400 B-4 is identical to me, although his neural pathways are not as advanced. 569 01:07:58,600 --> 01:08:01,600 Even if they were, he would not be me. 570 01:08:02,600 --> 01:08:07,200 - How can you be sure? - I aspire, sir. To be better than I am. 571 01:08:07,400 --> 01:08:11,200 B-4 does not. Nor does Shinzon. 572 01:08:14,200 --> 01:08:18,200 We are passing through the Bassen Rift. The projection will return. 573 01:08:18,800 --> 01:08:21,400 I�s interfering with our uplink? 574 01:08:21,600 --> 01:08:24,400 The Rift affects all long-range... 575 01:08:26,600 --> 01:08:28,400 Evasive manoeuvres! 576 01:08:34,400 --> 01:08:40,400 Target weapons systems and shields. I don't want the Enterprise destroyed. 577 01:09:05,000 --> 01:09:07,600 Can you learn to see in the dark? 578 01:09:08,600 --> 01:09:12,000 - Report. - He's cloaked. We can't get a lock. 579 01:09:12,600 --> 01:09:15,400 He hit our warp drive. We're on impulse. 580 01:09:16,000 --> 01:09:19,400 Full phaser spread, zero elevation!
