1 00:04:40 Tactical
2 00:05:02 Visual
3 00:05:10 Tactical, stand by on torpedoes.
4 00:05:21 Ready...
5 00:05:26 Fire!
6 00:05:53 Evasive!
7 00:06:02 This is comm station Epsilon IX calling U.S.S. Columbia.
8 00:06:06 Come in, Columbia. Respond, please.
9 00:06:15 This is Epsilon IX, Columbia. Am boosting output. How read you this?
10 00:06:24 Scout Columbia NCC621, to rendezvous with Scout Revere NCC595
11 00:06:32 on Stardate 7411.4.
12 00:06:36 Further orders will be relayed at that time,
13 00:06:39 signed Commodore Probert to Starfleet.
14 00:06:41 End of transmission.
15 00:06:48 Intruder unidentified.
16 00:06:50 Believe luminescent cloud to be enormous power field
17 00:06:54 surrounding alien vessel. Our sensor scans unable to penetrate.
18 00:07:00 Imperial Klingon Cruiser Amar, continuing to attack.
19 00:07:05 Our sensor drone is intercepting this on Quad L14.
20 00:07:10 That's within Klingon boundaries. Who are they fighting?
21 00:07:12 Unknown, sir.
22 00:07:15 I have an exterior visual.
23 00:08:31 We've plotted a course on that cloud, Commander.
24 00:08:34 It will pass into Federation space fairly close to us.
25 00:08:38 Heading?
26 00:08:40 Sir, it's on a precise heading for Earth.
27 00:09:38 Our ancestors cast out their animal passions here on these sands.
28 00:09:45 Our race was saved by the attainment of Kolinahr.
29 00:09:52 Kolinahr: through which all emotion is finally shed.
30 00:09:56 You have labored long, Spock...
31 00:10:01 Now receive from us this symbol of total logic.
32 00:10:30 Your thoughts... give them to me.
33 00:10:39 Our minds, Spock...
34 00:10:43 ...one and together
35 00:10:58 This consciousness calling to you from space...
36 00:11:02 It touches your human blood, Spock.
37 00:11:14 You have not achieved Kolinahr.
38 00:11:20 His answer lies elsewhere.
39 00:11:24 He will not achieve his goal with us.
40 00:11:29 Live long and prosper, Spock.
41 00:12:24 Commander Sonak,
42 00:12:26 you received your appointment as Enterprise science officer?
43 00:12:28 Based, I am told, on your recommendation, Admiral.
44 00:12:30 Thank you. Then why aren't you aboard?
45 00:12:32 Captain Decker requested I complete final science briefing here
46 00:12:34 before we leave on our mission. Here? At Starfleet?
47 00:12:39 The Enterprise is in final preparation to leave dock.
48 00:12:42 Which will require 20 more hours at minimum. Twelve.
49 00:12:46 I'm on my way to a meeting with Admiral Nogura
50 00:12:48 which will not last more than three minutes.
51 00:12:50 Report to me on the Enterprise in one hour.
52 00:12:52 Report to you, sir?
53 00:12:53 It is my intention to be on that ship following that meeting.
54 00:12:58 Report to me in one hour.
55 00:14:12 Admiral! Mr. Scott.
56 00:14:13 Those departure orders, 12 hours, Starfleet cannot be serious.
57 00:14:16 Why aren't the Enterprise transporters operating, Mr. Scott?
58 00:14:19 A wee problem, sir. Just temporary.
59 00:14:21 Admiral, we have just finished 18 months
60 00:14:23 redesigning and refitting the Enterprise.
61 00:14:25 How in the name of hell do they expect me to have her ready in 12 hours?
62 00:14:28 Take me over, please.
63 00:14:33 She needs more work, sir. A shakedown.
64 00:14:36 Mr. Scott, an alien object of unbelievable destructive power
65 00:14:41 is less than three days away from this planet.
66 00:14:43 The only starship in interception range is the Enterprise.
67 00:14:47 Ready or not, she launches in 12 hours.
68 00:15:12 The crew haven't had near enough transition time with all the new equipment.
69 00:15:17 And the engines, they're not even tested at warp power.
70 00:15:22 And an untried captain.
71 00:15:24 Two and a half years as chief of Starfleet operations
72 00:15:26 may have made me a little stale, but I wouldn't exactly consider myself untried.
73 00:15:35 They gave her back to me, Scotty. "Gave" her back, sir?
74 00:15:39 Well, I doubt it was that easy with Nogura.
75 00:15:42 You're right.
76 00:15:46 Well, any man who could manage such a feat,
77 00:15:50 I would not dare to disappoint.
78 00:15:53 She'll launch on time, sir. And she'll be ready.
79 00:20:46 Pod secured. Thank you, Mr. Scott.
80 00:20:48 Aye, sir. Pressure equalized.
81 00:20:52 Attention, launch crew, a travel pod is now available at cargo six.
82 00:20:59 Permission to come aboard, sir. Granted, sir. Welcome aboard, Admiral.
83 00:21:03 Commander Scott, you're needed in engineering immediately.
84 00:21:05 Sir, you'll excuse me.
85 00:21:06 Attention, launch crew.
86 00:21:08 A travel pod is now available at cargo six. Travel pod available. Cargo six.
87 00:21:15 Sir, if you'll follow me, I'll show you... I think I can find my way, Ensign.
88 00:21:19 Aye, sir.
89 00:21:25 Bridge.
90 00:21:31 What's the problem?
91 00:21:33 I thought you people had that circuit patched in an hour ago!
92 00:21:35 We did. We had to disconnect it again so we could tie in radio messaging.
93 00:21:38 All right. Take out...
94 00:21:44 All right, as soon as somebody can get to it.
95 00:21:49 What's the next program? Go ahead.
96 00:21:51 I'll get somebody down there as soon as I can.
97 00:21:53 Cleary, my people are all tied up now.
98 00:21:59 Captain, Starfleet just signaled your transferofcommand order, sir.
99 00:22:06 Captain. I appreciate the welcome.
100 00:22:09 I wish the circumstances were less critical.
101 00:22:11 Epsilon IX is monitoring the intruder. Keep a channel open to them.
102 00:22:14 Aye, sir.
103 00:22:16 Where's Captain Decker?
104 00:22:18 He's in engineering, sir.
105 00:22:20 He... He doesn't know.
106 00:22:26 Mr. Chekov. Aye, sir.
107 00:22:28 Assemble the crew on the recreation deck at 0400 hours.
108 00:22:31 I want to show them what we're facing. Engineering to all decks,
109 00:22:41 auxiliary power test in three minutes.
110 00:22:48 Check Cleary on number six.
111 00:22:50 Engineering to all decks, auxiliary power test in three minutes.
112 00:22:57 Mark. Space matrix restoration coils.
113 00:23:11 Dilithium crystals.
114 00:23:13 I knew it! The transporter sensor was not activated.
115 00:23:18 Faulty modules.
116 00:23:19 Cleary! Put a new backup sensor into the unit.
117 00:23:22 Aye, sir.
118 00:23:23 Ready. Emergency shutdown trip.
119 00:23:26 Admiral Kirk! Well, we're getting a topbrass sendoff.
120 00:23:30 Don't worry. She'll launch on schedule,
121 00:23:32 if we have to tow her out with our bare hands.
122 00:23:33 Right, Scotty? Aye, that we will, sir.
123 00:23:39 Let's talk. Sure.
124 00:23:41 Let me know when that backup's ready. Aye, sir.
125 00:23:43 All due respect, sir, I hope this isn't some kind of Starfleet pep talk.
126 00:23:46 I'm really too busy. I'm taking over the centre seat, Will.
127 00:23:50 You're what?
128 00:23:52 I'm replacing you as captain of the Enterprise.
129 00:23:55 You'll stay on as executive officer,
130 00:23:57 temporary grade reduction to commander.
131 00:24:03 You, personally, are assuming command?
132 00:24:05 Yeah.
133 00:24:07 May I ask why? My experience.
134 00:24:11 Five years out there dealing with unknowns like this.
135 00:24:15 My familiarity with the Enterprise, its crew.
136 00:24:17 Admiral, this is an almost totally new Enterprise.
137 00:24:21 You don't know her a tenth as well as I do! That's why you're staying aboard.
138 00:24:30 I'm sorry, Will.
139 00:24:32 No, Admiral. I don't think you're sorry. Not one damn bit.
140 00:24:39 I remember when you recommended me for this command.
141 00:24:42 You told me how envious you were
142 00:24:44 and how much you hoped you'd find a way to get a starship command again.
143 00:24:49 Well, sir, it looks like you found a way.
144 00:24:57 Report to the bridge, Commander, immediately.
145 00:25:03 Aye, sir.
146 00:25:17 Transporter room, come in! Urgent!
147 00:25:19 Red line on the transporter, Mr. Scott.
148 00:25:21 Transporter! Do not engage. It's too late. They're beaming now. Do not...
149 00:25:27 Do you read me, Starfleet? Override it. Pull them back.
150 00:25:31 Unable to retrieve their pattern, Enterprise.
151 00:25:37 Malfunction! Malfunction! Malfunction!
152 00:25:41 Malfunction! Malfunction! Give it to me!
153 00:25:44 Malfunction!
154 00:25:47 Starfleet, boost your matter gain. We need more signal.
155 00:25:56 More signal! We're losing their pattern.
156 00:25:59 Oh, no. They're forming.
157 00:26:18 Oh, my God.
158 00:26:27 Starfleet, do you have them?
159 00:26:30 Enterprise, what we got back didn't live long.
160 00:26:35 Fortunately.
161 00:26:41 Starfleet, Kirk.
162 00:26:45 Please express my condolences to their families.
163 00:26:49 Commander Sonak's can be reached through the Vulcan Embassy.
164 00:26:59 There was nothing you could have done, Rand.
165 00:27:02 It wasn't your fault.
166 00:27:28 Yeoman, turboshaft eight? Back that way, sir.
167 00:27:39 We have to replace Commander Sonak. I'd still like a Vulcan there, if possible.
168 00:27:46 None available, Captain. In fact,
169 00:27:48 there's no one who's fully rated on this design.
170 00:27:51 You are, Mr. Decker. I'm afraid you're gonna have to double as science officer.
171 00:28:29 That's all we know about it.
172 00:28:32 Except that it is now 53.4 hours away from Earth.
173 00:28:40 Enterprise is the only Federation starship that stands in its way.
174 00:28:44 We assume that there is a vessel of some type
175 00:28:50 at the heart of the cloud. Our orders are to intercept,
176 00:28:53 investigate and take whatever action is necessary and possible.
177 00:29:03 We can only hope that there is a life form aboard that vessel
178 00:29:07 that reasons the way we do.
179 00:29:14 Bridge to Captain. Priority signal from Epsilon IX.
180 00:29:18 Put it on viewer. On viewer, sir.
181 00:29:19 Enterprise. The cloud is definitely a power field of some kind.
182 00:29:25 Measures... My God! Over 82 AUs in diameter.
183 00:29:31 Must be something incredible inside there generating it.
184 00:29:36 We're transmitting linguacode friendship messages on all frequencies.
185 00:29:40 No response.
186 00:29:41 I have a null reading at the centre of the cloud.
187 00:29:43 Definitely something inside there, but all scans are being reflected back.
188 00:29:47 Some kind of power surge. Receiving an odd pattern now!
189 00:29:50 Enterprise, they could be mistaking our scans as a hostile act.
190 00:29:53 They seem to be reacting to our scans, sir. Deflectors, emergency full!
191 00:29:59 We are under attack! External view.
192 00:31:01 Viewer off. Viewer off!
193 00:31:18 Prelaunch countdown will commence in 40 minutes.
194 00:31:38 Photon torpedo load status.
195 00:31:41 Transporter system fully repaired and functioning normally, sir.
196 00:31:45 Dock signals clear, Captain.
197 00:31:46 Reply we are holding position awaiting final crew replacements.
198 00:31:49 Aye, sir.
199 00:31:52 Transporter personnel reports the navigator, Lieutenant Ilia,
200 00:31:56 she's already aboard and en route to the bridge, sir.
201 00:32:02 She's Deltan, Captain.
202 00:32:09 Lieutenant Ilia reporting for duty, sir. Welcome aboard, Lieutenant.
203 00:32:15 Hello, Ilia. Decker.
204 00:32:18 I was stationed on the lieutenant's home planet some years ago.
205 00:32:21 Commander Decker?
206 00:32:24 Yes, our exec and science officer.
207 00:32:26 Captain Kirk has the utmost confidence in me.
208 00:32:30 And, in you, too, Lieutenant.
209 00:32:32 My oath of celibacy is on record, Captain.
210 00:32:35 May I assume my duties? By all means.
211 00:32:39 Captain? Starfleet reports our last six crew members are ready to beam up,
212 00:32:44 but one of them is refusing to step into the transporter.
213 00:32:47 Oh? I'll see to it that he beams up. Transporter room.
214 00:33:14 Well, for a man who swore he'd never return to the Starfleet...
215 00:33:17 Just a moment, Captain, sir. I'll explain what happened.
216 00:33:22 Your revered Admiral Nogura
217 00:33:24 invoked a little known, seldom used reserve activation clause.
218 00:33:29 In simpler language, Captain, they drafted me.
219 00:33:32 They didn't.
220 00:33:35 This was your idea. This was your idea, wasn't it?
221 00:33:39 Bones, there's a thing out there.
222 00:33:40 Why is any object we don't understand always called a "thing"?
223 00:33:44 Headed this way. I need you.
224 00:33:50 Damn it, Bones. I need you. Badly!
225 00:34:08 Permission to come aboard? Permission granted, sir.
226 00:34:16 Well, Jim. I hear Chapel's an MD now.
227 00:34:22 Well, I'm going to need a top nurse.
228 00:34:24 Not a doctor who'll argue every little diagnosis with me.
229 00:34:28 And they probably redesigned the whole sickbay, too.
230 00:34:32 I know engineers. They love to change things.
231 00:34:56 Dock control reports ready, sir.
232 00:34:59 Helm ready, sir. Orbital departure on plot, sir.
233 00:35:03 Yard command signaling clear, sir.
234 00:35:05 Maneuvering thrusters, Mr. Sulu.
235 00:35:08 Maneuvering thrusters, sir. Hold station.
236 00:35:11 Thrusters at stationkeeping, sir.
237 00:35:33 Thrusters ahead, Mr. Sulu.
238 00:35:40 Take us out.
239 00:37:05 Intermix set, bridge. Impulse power at your discretion.
240 00:37:09 Impulse power, Mr. Sulu.
241 00:37:13 Ahead warp 0.5.
242 00:37:29 Departure angle on viewer. Departure angle.
243 00:37:37 Viewer ahead. Viewer ahead.
244 00:38:03 Captain's Log, Stardate 7412.6, 1 .8 hours from launch.
245 00:38:10 In order to intercept the intruder at the earliest possible time,
246 00:38:14 we must now risk engaging warp drive while still within the solar system.
247 00:38:18 Captain, assuming we have full warp capability,
248 00:38:22 accelerating to warp 7 on leaving the solar system
249 00:38:25 will bring us to IP with the intruder in 20.1 hours.
250 00:38:30 Science officer's computation confirmed, sir.
251 00:38:43 Well, Bones, do the new medical facilities meet with your approval?
252 00:38:46 They do not. It's like working in a damned computer centre.
253 00:38:50 Programming ready? Program set for standard warp entry, Captain,
254 00:38:54 but I still recommend further simulation study.
255 00:38:57 Mr. Decker, every minute brings that object closer to Earth.
256 00:39:03 Engineering, stand by for warp drive.
257 00:39:05 Captain, we need further warp simulation on the flow sensors.
258 00:39:08 Engineer, we need warp speed now.
259 00:39:11 Jim? You're pushing.
260 00:39:17 Your people know their jobs.
261 00:39:20 That's it, sir. I can't do any better. Aye, lad.
262 00:39:28 It's borderline on the simulator, Captain.
263 00:39:31 I cannot guarantee that she'll hold up.
264 00:39:32 Warp drive, Mr. Scott.
265 00:39:34 Ahead, warp 1, Mr. Sulu. Accelerating to warp 1, sir.
266 00:39:40 Warp 0.7.
267 00:39:43 0.8.
268 00:39:56 Warp 1, sir.
269 00:39:59 Mr. Decker... Emergency alert! Emergency alert!
270 00:40:03 Emergency alert!
271 00:40:04 Wormhole! Get us back on impulse power! Full reverse.
272 00:40:07 Emergency alert! Emergency alert!
273 00:40:22 Negative helm control, Captain. Going reverse on impulse power!
274 00:40:25 Subspace frequencies jammed, sir! Wormhole effect!
275 00:40:40 Negative control from inertial lag will continue 22.5 seconds
276 00:40:43 before forward velocity slows to sublight speed!
277 00:40:45 Unidentified small object
278 00:40:48 has been pulled into the wormhole with us, Captain, directly ahead!
279 00:40:50 Force fields up full. Put object on viewer.
280 00:40:59 Go manual override on helm! No manual response, sir.
281 00:41:02 Navigational deflectors coming up, sir.
282 00:41:05 Wormhole distortion has overloaded the main power systems.
283 00:41:07 Navigational deflectors inoperative, Captain.
284 00:41:11 Directional control also inoperative.
285 00:41:20 Time to impact? Twenty seconds.
286 00:41:25 Mr. Chekov, stand by on phasers.
287 00:41:29 No!
288 00:41:34 Belay that phaser order!
289 00:41:48 Arm photon torpedoes!
290 00:41:57 Photon torpedoes
291 00:42:06 armed!
292 00:42:14 Object is an asteroid, reading mass 0.7.
293 00:42:22 Targeting asteroid!
294 00:42:29 Impact in ten seconds.
295 00:42:39 Impact in eight seconds. Fire torpedoes!
296 00:42:44 Six... Torpedoes away! ...seconds.
297 00:42:49 Four!
298 00:43:19 We're out of it!
299 00:43:26 Helm control restored, sir.
300 00:43:32 Position report, Navigator. Computing new intersection course.
301 00:43:36 Communications are normal, sir.
302 00:43:38 Negative damage reported, Captain. No casualties reported, Doctor.
303 00:43:42 Wrong, Mr. Chekov, there are casualties. My wits!
304 00:43:48 As in "frightened out of," Captain, sir.
305 00:43:51 We're at warp 0.8. Engineer, report your status there.
306 00:43:56 In just a second, Exec. We're picking up the pieces down here!
307 00:44:02 Mr. Scott, we need warp drive as soon as possible.
308 00:44:04 Captain, it was the engine imbalance
309 00:44:06 that created the wormhole in the first place.
310 00:44:09 It will happen again if we don't correct it.
311 00:44:11 That object is less than two days away from Earth.
312 00:44:15 We need to intercept while it still is out there.
313 00:44:16 Navigator, lay in a new heading to conform with our initial IP with the intruder.
314 00:44:21 Mr. Sulu, you have the conn.
315 00:44:23 Mr. Decker, I'd like to see you in my quarters.
316 00:44:27 Mind if I tag along, Captain?
317 00:44:33 Level five.
318 00:44:42 All right, explanation. Why was my phaser order countermanded?
319 00:44:45 Sir, the Enterprise redesign increases phaser power
320 00:44:48 by channeling it through the main engines.
321 00:44:51 When they went into antimatter imbalance,
322 00:44:53 the phasers were automatically cut off.
323 00:44:59 Then you acted properly, of course.
324 00:45:02 Thank you, sir.
325 00:45:06 I'm sorry if I embarrassed you.
326 00:45:09 You saved the ship. I'm aware of that, sir.
327 00:45:12 Stop competing with me, Decker!
328 00:45:18 Permission to speak freely, sir? Granted!
329 00:45:20 Sir, you haven't logged a single star hour in two and a half years.
330 00:45:25 That, plus your unfamiliarity with the ship's redesign, in my opinion, sir,
331 00:45:29 seriously jeopardizes this mission.
332 00:45:37 I trust you will nursemaid me through these difficulties, mister?
333 00:45:44 Yes, sir, I'll do that.
334 00:45:45 Then I won't keep you from your duties any longer, Commander.
335 00:45:48 Yes, Doctor? Aye, sir.
336 00:45:57 He may be right, Jim.
337 00:46:08 Was it difficult?
338 00:46:10 No more than I expected. About as difficult as seeing you again.
339 00:46:17 I'm sorry.
340 00:46:18 That you left Delta IV? Or that you didn't even say goodbye?
341 00:46:25 If I had seen you again,
342 00:46:28 would you have been able to say it?
343 00:46:33 No.
344 00:46:47 Make your point, Doctor.
345 00:46:49 The point, Captain, is that it's you who's competing.
346 00:46:53 You rammed getting this command down Starfleet's throat.
347 00:46:55 You've used this emergency to get the Enterprise back.
348 00:47:02 And I intend to keep her, is that what you're saying?
349 00:47:04 Yes. It's an obsession.
350 00:47:08 An obsession that can blind you to
351 00:47:11 far more immediate and critical responsibilities.
352 00:47:13 Your reaction to Decker is an example, Jim.
353 00:47:17 Bridge to Captain. Viewer on.
354 00:47:22 Signal from a Federationregistered longrange shuttle, sir.
355 00:47:25 She wishes to come alongside and lock on.
356 00:47:29 For what purpose?
357 00:47:30 My security scan shows it has a Grade 1 priority, Captain.
358 00:47:34 Nonbelligerency confirmed.
359 00:47:36 I suspect it is a courier of some kind.
360 00:47:39 Very well, Mr. Chekov. See to it.
361 00:47:42 Viewer off. Your opinion has been noted.
362 00:47:47 Anything further?
363 00:47:50 That depends on you.
364 00:49:06 Security scan. One boarder. Identity, Starfleet. Inactive.
365 00:49:17 Permission to come aboard, sir.
366 00:49:19 Granted, sir! Granted.
367 00:49:34 Why, why, it's Mr Spock! Spock.
368 00:49:48 Commander, if I may?
369 00:50:04 I've been monitoring your communications with Starfleet Command, Captain.
370 00:50:08 I'm aware of your engine design difficulties.
371 00:50:13 I offer my services as science officer.
372 00:50:16 With all due respect, Commander.
373 00:50:19 If our exec has no objections?
374 00:50:21 Of course not. I'm well aware of Mr Spock's qualifications.
375 00:50:23 Mr Chekov, log Mr Spock's Starfleet commission reactivated,
376 00:50:27 list him as science officer,
377 00:50:30 both effective immediately.
378 00:50:34 Mr Spock!
379 00:50:35 Well, so help me, I'm actually pleased to see you!
380 00:50:52 It's how we all feel, Mr Spock. Captain, with your permission,
381 00:50:55 I will now discuss these fuel equations with the engineer.
382 00:51:03 Mr Spock? Welcome aboard.
383 00:51:30 Captain's Log, Stardate 7413.4.
384 00:51:35 Thanks to Mr Spock's timely arrival, and assistance,
385 00:51:38 we have the engines rebalanced into full warp capacity.
386 00:51:42 Repair time, less than three hours.
387 00:51:45 Which means, we will now be able to intercept intruder
388 00:51:47 while still more than a day from Earth.
389 00:51:51 Warp 0.8.
390 00:51:58 Warp 0.9.
391 00:52:07 Warp 2, sir.
392 00:52:12 Warp 3.
393 00:52:16 Warp 4.
394 00:52:20 Warp 5.
395 00:52:24 Warp 6.
396 00:52:34 Warp 7.Sir.
397 00:52:50 Science Officer Spock, reporting as ordered, Captain.
398 00:52:55 Please, sit down.
399 00:52:58 Spock, you haven't changed a bit.
400 00:53:00 You're just as warm and sociable as ever.
401 00:53:03 Nor have you, Doctor,
402 00:53:05 as your continued predilection for irrelevancy demonstrates.
403 00:53:09 Gentlemen.
404 00:53:12 At last report, you were on Vulcan, apparently to stay.
405 00:53:17 Yes, you were undergoing the Kolinahr discipline.
406 00:53:22 Sit down.
407 00:53:23 If you are referring to the Kolinahr, Doctor, you are correct.
408 00:53:28 Well, however it's pronounced, Mr Spock,
409 00:53:31 it's the Vulcan ritual that's supposed to purge all remaining emotions.
410 00:53:36 The Kolinahr is also a discipline you broke to join us.
411 00:53:43 Will you please sit down?
412 00:53:58 On Vulcan I began sensing a consciousness
413 00:54:01 from a source more powerful than I have ever encountered.
414 00:54:04 Thought patterns of exactingly, perfect order.
415 00:54:08 I believe they emanate from the intruder.
416 00:54:11 I believe it may hold my answers.
417 00:54:13 Well, isn't it lucky for you that we just happened to be heading your way?
418 00:54:18 Bones!
419 00:54:21 We need him.
420 00:54:25 I need him.
421 00:54:28 Then my presence is to our mutual advantage?
422 00:54:37 Any thought patterns you might sense,
423 00:54:42 whether they appear to affect you personally or not,
424 00:54:44 I expect immediately reported.
425 00:54:46 Of course, Captain.
426 00:54:49 Is there anything else?
427 00:54:51 No.
428 00:55:03 Jim?
429 00:55:08 If this superintelligence is as important to him as he says it is,
430 00:55:14 how do we know...
431 00:55:15 That he wouldn't put his own interests ahead of the ship's?
432 00:55:21 I could never believe that. Bridge to officer's lounge.
433 00:55:23 Captain Kirk, revised estimate on cloud visual contact, 3.7 minutes.
434 00:55:28 Red Alert! Red Alert!
435 00:55:33 Red Alert! Red Alert!
436 00:55:45 Standard light, Engineer.
437 00:55:49 Full mag on viewer! Full mag, sir.
438 00:56:00 Linguacode?
439 00:56:02 Continuing friendship messages on all frequencies, sir.
440 00:56:04 All decks and divisions confirmed. Status Red.
441 00:56:06 Captain, we are being scanned. Do no return scan, Mr Spock.
442 00:56:12 It could be misinterpreted as hostility.
443 00:56:14 Intruder scans emanating from the exact centre of the cloud.
444 00:56:18 Energy of a type never before encountered.
445 00:56:30 There's no response to friendship messages, sir.
446 00:56:32 Shall I go to battle stations, sir? Negative. We'll take no provocative action.
447 00:56:36 Recommend defensive posture, Captain. Screens and shields.
448 00:56:41 No, Mr Decker. That could also be misinterpreted as hostile.
449 00:56:47 Cloud composition, Mr Spock?
450 00:56:49 Twelfth power energy field. Twelfth power?
451 00:56:52 Captain, we've seen what their weapons can do.
452 00:56:54 Shouldn't we take every possible precaution?
453 00:56:57 I suspect there's an object at the heart of that cloud.
454 00:57:05 Mr Decker, I will not provoke an attack.
455 00:57:07 If that order isn't clear enough for you...
456 00:57:09 Captain, as your exec, it's my duty to point out alternatives.
457 00:57:15 Yes, it is. I stand corrected.
458 00:57:19 Five minutes to cloud boundary.
459 00:57:21 Navigator, lay in a conic section flight path to the cloud centre.
460 00:57:25 Bring us parallel to whatever we find in there.
461 00:57:29 Mr Sulu, tactical plot on viewer. Tactical on viewer, sir.
462 00:57:47 That measures twelfth power energy?
463 00:57:52 Thousands of starships couldn't generate that much...
464 00:57:55 Mr Spock? Spock, tell me.
465 00:58:11 I sense puzzlement.
466 00:58:16 We have been contacted.
467 00:58:20 Why have we not replied?
468 00:58:22 Contacted? How?
469 00:58:27 Standard on viewer. Force fields up full! Deflectors, now!
470 00:58:30 Mark, zero. Incoming fire ahead.
471 00:58:34 Force fields and deflectors up full, Captain!
472 00:58:45 Analysis, Mr Spock.
473 00:58:46 Alien weapon is a form of plasma energy, Captain.
474 00:58:49 Exact composition, unknown. Guidance system, unknown.
475 00:58:56 All decks brace for impact. Registering power loss on force fields!
476 00:59:09 Engineering, what's happening to our force fields? Systems overloading, Captain!
477 00:59:23 Medic. Medics are coming.
478 00:59:37 The new screens held.
479 00:59:39 Engineering to bridge. Cannot hold full power on force fields!
480 00:59:42 Deflector power is down 70%!
481 00:59:45 Divert auxiliary power to deflectors.
482 00:59:51 Captain. The intruder has been attempting to communicate.
483 00:59:57 Our previous transmission mode was too primitive to be received.
484 01:00:00 I am now programming our computer to transmit linguacode
485 01:00:03 at their frequency and rate of speed.
486 01:00:06 Commander.
487 01:00:17 Spock.
488 01:00:24 Here it comes! Engineering! Status report!
489 01:00:27 Our shields cannot handle another attack.
490 01:00:31 Mr Spock!
491 01:00:37 Impact in 20 seconds.
492 01:00:41 Spock! 15 seconds!
493 01:00:44 Spock! Transmit now!
494 01:00:47 10 seconds.
495 01:00:49 Transmitting.
496 01:01:02 It would seem our friendship messages
497 01:01:05 have been received and understood, Mr Spock.
498 01:01:07 I would say that was a logical assumption, Captain.
499 01:01:11 Mr Sulu, hold present position. Holding present position, sir.
500 01:01:23 Tactical plot on viewer. Course projection on tactical, sir.
501 01:01:33 Opinion, Mr Spock. Recommend we proceed, Captain.
502 01:01:38 Mr Decker? I advise caution, Captain.
503 01:01:41 We can't withstand another attack.
504 01:01:43 That thing is 20 hours away from Earth.
505 01:01:45 We know nothing about it as yet. Precisely the point, Captain.
506 01:01:48 We don't know what it'll do.
507 01:01:52 Moving into that cloud at this time is an unwarranted gamble.
508 01:01:56 How do you define "unwarranted"?
509 01:02:02 You asked my opinion, sir.
510 01:02:12 Viewer, standard ahead.
511 01:02:23 Navigator, maintain course. Helmsman, steady as she goes.
512 01:04:42 No vessel could generate a power field of this magnitude.
513 01:04:52 Instruments fluctuating, Captain.
514 01:04:57 Patterns unrecognizable.
515 01:06:43 Transmit image of alien to Starfleet.
516 01:06:45 Advise we are attempting further communication.
517 01:06:46 Unable to make contact with Starfleet, Captain.
518 01:06:49 Any attempt to transmit out of the cloud is being reflected back!
519 01:07:02 We are closing on it rapidly, Captain.
520 01:07:13 Reduce magnification, factor four, Mr Sulu.
521 01:07:16 We're already two settings below that, sir.
522 01:07:23 Mr Sulu,
523 01:07:25 bring us into a parallel course over the alien at 500 meters.
524 01:07:32 500 meters?
525 01:07:35 Then take us out to 100 kilometers distance, adjusting parallel course.
526 01:07:41 Aye, sir.
527 01:09:42 Viewer astern. Reverse angle on the viewer, Captain.
528 01:10:06 Five hundred meters. Viewer ahead, sir.
529 01:12:40 Hold relative position here.
530 01:12:43 Intruder Alert! Intruder Alert!
531 01:12:45 Intruder Alert! Intruder Alert!
532 01:12:49 Intruder Alert! Intruder Alert!
533 01:13:22 Mr Spock, can that be one of their crew?
534 01:13:27 A probe from their vessel, Captain. Plasma, energy combination.
535 01:13:34 Don't interfere with it!
536 01:13:36 Absolutely, I will not interfere.
537 01:13:40 No one interfere!
538 01:13:44 It doesn't seem interested in us! Only the ship.
539 01:14:04 Computer off!
540 01:14:12 It's taken control of the computer.
541 01:14:21 It's running our records! Earth defenses! Starfleet strength!
542 01:15:00 Ilia! Ilia!
543 01:15:30 This is how I define unwarranted.
544 01:15:42 Activate auxiliary computer circuits through manual shutoff.
545 01:15:50 Emergency Alert! Negative control at helm!
546 01:15:54 Emergency Alert! Negative control at helm!
547 01:15:57 Emergency Alert! Negative control at helm!
548 01:16:00 Force fields! Full remaining strength! Total reserve!
549 01:16:02 This ship is under attack. Man all defensive stations.
550 01:16:11 Captain, we've been seized by a tractor beam.
551 01:16:14 Get someone up here to take the navigator's station.
552 01:16:16 Engineering! Chief DiFalco, to the bridge!
553 01:16:18 Emergency power!
554 01:16:19 Going to full emergency!
555 01:16:25 But, Captain, if we don't break free in 15 seconds, she'll burn up!
556 01:16:27 We cannot break free, Captain. We have only a fraction of the power necessary.
557 01:16:31 Engineering, belay that order. Disengage all main drive systems.
558 01:16:54 Chief DiFalco, take over Lieutenant Iila station.
559 01:17:04 DiFalco, disengage engine navigation relays now!
560 01:17:07 Force field circuits E10 through 14 show ready for reactivation.
561 01:17:11 Confirm, please.
562 01:17:14 Scotty, drive systems should be free now. Commander?
563 01:17:17 Ready to launch remote communications drone
564 01:17:19 with complete ships records, including our present situation, sir.
565 01:17:23 Delay launching as long as possible.
566 01:17:24 Our drone can't escape as long as we're held in that tractor.
567 01:17:27 Aye. Captain, a maximum phaser strike directly at the beam
568 01:17:57 might weaken it just enough for us to break free.
569 01:18:00 Break free to where, Commander?
570 01:18:03 Any show of resistance would be futile, Captain.
571 01:18:05 We don't know that, Mr Spock. Why are you opposed to trying?
572 01:19:01 Why bring us inside? Not to destroy us. They could have done that outside.
573 01:19:07 They still can.
574 01:19:09 Curiosity, Mr Decker.
575 01:19:13 Insatiable curiosity.
576 01:19:23 Captain, photic sonar readings indicate the aperture is closing.
577 01:19:28 We're trapped, sir.
578 01:19:31 Reverse angle on the viewer, Captain.
579 01:19:58 Tractor beam has released us, Captain.
580 01:20:01 Confirmed. Vessel is floating free. No forward momentum.
581 01:20:08 Viewer ahead. Viewer ahead, sir.
582 01:20:16 Maneuvering thrusters, Mr Sulu. Ahead one third.
583 01:20:19 Thrusters ahead, one third.
584 01:20:27 Let's take a look. Full sensor scan, Mr Spock.
585 01:20:31 They can't expect us not to look them over now.
586 01:20:34 Now that we're looking down their throat.
587 01:20:35 Right. Now that we've got them just where they want us.
588 01:20:55 It's closing up.
589 01:21:00 Hold position.
590 01:21:02 Thrusters at stationkeeping, sir.
591 01:21:06 Captain?
592 01:21:11 All our scans are being reflected back. Sensors are useless.
593 01:21:17 Damn!
594 01:21:26 What do you make of all this?
595 01:21:27 I believe the closed orifice leads to another chamber.
596 01:21:31 Undoubtedly, part of the vessel's inner mechanism.
597 01:21:35 I suspect it may be necessary...
598 01:21:41 Intruder Alert! Intruder Alert! Deck five, Captain. Officer's quarters.
599 01:21:45 Have Security meet me at deck five! Main elevator!
600 01:21:47 Spock! Mr Decker, you have the conn.
601 01:21:50 Hold position. Intruder location, a sonic shower.
602 01:21:55 Temperature at intruder location, temperature drop rapid now.
603 01:22:00 60 degrees.
604 01:22:02 50 degrees. Temperature curve flattening.
605 01:22:06 45 degrees. 40 degrees.
606 01:22:10 Temperature leveling, 39 degrees.
607 01:22:13 You are the Kirkunit. You will assist me.
608 01:22:17 Holding at 37.65 degrees.
609 01:22:20 I've been programmed by V'Ger to observe and record
610 01:22:25 normal functions of the carbonbased units infesting U.S.S. Enterprise.
611 01:22:30 Holding at 37.65 degrees.
612 01:22:43 Jim, what's going on? Tricorder.
613 01:22:49 Who is V'Ger?
614 01:22:53 V'Ger is that which programmed me.
615 01:22:57 Is V'Ger the name of the captain of the alien vessel?
616 01:23:02 Jim, this is a mechanism. A probe, Captain.
617 01:23:09 No doubt a sensortransceiver combination
618 01:23:11 recording everything we say and do.
619 01:23:15 Where is Lieutenant Ilia? That unit no longer functions.
620 01:23:19 I've been given its form to more readily
621 01:23:21 communicate with the carbonbased units infesting Enterprise.
622 01:23:26 Carbonbased units? Humans, Ensign Perez. Us.
623 01:23:32 Why does V'Ger travel to the third planet of the solar system directly ahead?
624 01:23:38 To find the Creator.
625 01:23:40 Find the Creator? Whose...
626 01:23:49 What does V'Ger want with the Creator?
627 01:23:51 To join with him. To join with the Creator? How?
628 01:23:56 V'Ger and the Creator will become one.
629 01:23:59 And who is the Creator?
630 01:24:01 The Creator is that which created V'Ger.
631 01:24:04 Who is V'Ger? V'Ger is that which seeks the Creator.
632 01:24:12 I'm ready to commence my observations.
633 01:24:15 Doctor, a thorough examination of this probe might provide some insight
634 01:24:19 into those who manufactured it and how to deal with them.
635 01:24:23 Fine. Let's get her to sickbay.
636 01:24:30 I am programmed to observe and record
637 01:24:32 only the normal functioning of the carbonbased units.
638 01:24:35 The examination is a normal function.
639 01:24:42 You may proceed.
640 01:24:50 Microminiature hydraulics,
641 01:24:56 sensors
642 01:25:01 and moleculesized multiprocessor chips.
643 01:25:10 And take a look at this. An osmotic micropump right here.
644 01:25:14 And even the smallest body functions are exactly duplicated.
645 01:25:21 Every exocrine system is the same, too.
646 01:25:25 Even eye moisture. Decker.
647 01:25:30 Fascinating. Not "Deckerunit"?
648 01:25:38 Gentlemen.
649 01:25:40 Will.
650 01:25:53 What happened to her?
651 01:25:54 Captain, this probe may be our key to the aliens.
652 01:25:57 Probe? "Ilia"?
653 01:25:59 Exactly. It is a programmed mechanism, Commander.
654 01:26:03 Its body duplicates our navigator in precise detail.
655 01:26:07 Suppose that beneath its programming,
656 01:26:09 the real Ilia memory patterns are duplicated with equal precision.
657 01:26:13 They had a pattern to follow. Indeed.
658 01:26:16 They may have followed it too precisely.
659 01:26:18 Ilia memory, her feelings of loyalty, obedience, friendship might all be there!
660 01:26:26 You did have a relationship with Lieutenant Ilia, Commander.
661 01:26:30 That probe, in another form, is what killed Ilia!
662 01:26:32 Commander!
663 01:26:34 Will, we're locked in an alien vessel, six hours from Earth orbit.
664 01:26:39 Our only contact with our captor is that probe.
665 01:26:41 If we could control it, persuade it, use it...
666 01:26:47 I have recorded enough here. You will now assist me further.
667 01:26:55 The Deckerunit can assist you with much greater efficiency.
668 01:27:04 Carry on with your assignment, Mr Decker.
669 01:27:08 Aye, sir.
670 01:27:14 I am concerned with that being our only source of information, Captain.
671 01:27:22 Captain's Log, Stardate 7414.1.
672 01:27:26 Our best estimates place us some four hours from Earth.
673 01:27:30 No significant progress thus far,
674 01:27:32 reviving Ilia memory patterns within the alien probe.
675 01:27:36 This remains our only means of contact with our captor.
676 01:27:40 All those vessels were called Enterprise.
677 01:27:54 The carbon units use this area for recreation.
678 01:27:58 This is one of the games.
679 01:28:05 What types of recreation does the crew aboard your vessel enjoy?
680 01:28:10 The words "recreation" and "enjoy"
681 01:28:15 have no meaning to my programming.
682 01:28:26 Ilia enjoyed this game.
683 01:28:30 She nearly always won.
684 01:28:38 Good. He's using audiovisual association.
685 01:29:17 This device serves no purpose.
686 01:29:31 Why does Enterprise require the presence of carbon units?
687 01:29:35 Enterprise would be unable to function without carbon units.
688 01:29:40 More data concerning this functioning is necessary,
689 01:29:43 before carbon units can be patterned for data storage.
690 01:29:51 What does that mean?
691 01:29:53 When my examination is complete all carbon units
692 01:29:57 will be reduced to data patterns.
693 01:30:00 Within you are the memory patterns of a certain carbon unit.
694 01:30:05 If I can help you to revive those patterns,
695 01:30:08 you could understand our functions better.
696 01:30:11 That is logical. You may proceed.
697 01:31:01 I remember Lieutenant Ilia once mentioning she wore that.
698 01:31:10 On Delta. Remember?
699 01:31:14 Ilia?
700 01:31:22 Doctor Chapel.
701 01:31:34 Will? Ilia.
702 01:31:39 Commander. Commander.
703 01:31:46 This is a mechanism.
704 01:31:52 Ilia, help us make direct contact with V'Ger.
705 01:31:59 I cannot. This Creator V'Ger is looking for,
706 01:32:05 what is it? V'Ger does not know.
707 01:32:38 Computer, commence recording.
708 01:32:41 Captain Kirk, these messages will detail
709 01:32:45 my attempt to contact the aliens.
710 01:32:54 Warning! Your emergency evacuation thruster pack has been armed.
711 01:32:59 Once ignited, the burn duration is 10 seconds and may not be aborted.
712 01:33:05 Push the igniterenable release to begin a 10second countdown to thruster ignition.
713 01:33:11 To abort countdown, flip the control arm up.
714 01:33:16 I intend to calculate thruster ignition and acceleration rate
715 01:33:19 to coincide with the opening of the V'Ger orifice.
716 01:33:21 This should facilitate a better view of the interior of the alien spacecraft.
717 01:33:31 Captain? Starfleet signals are growing in strength, sir.
718 01:33:35 They still have the intruder on their monitors. It's decelerating.
719 01:33:39 Confirmed, sir. Lunar beacons indicate intruder on a course into Earth orbit.
720 01:33:43 Sir, airlock four has been opened. A thruster suit is reported missing.
721 01:33:51 A thruster suit?
722 01:33:55 That's Spock. Damn him.
723 01:33:59 Bring him back here. No, wait!
724 01:34:09 Get a fix on his position. Aye, sir!
725 01:35:29 I have successfully penetrated the next chamber of the alien's interior,
726 01:35:33 and I'm witnessing some sort of dimensional image,
727 01:35:36 which I believe to be a representation of V'Ger's home planet.
728 01:35:49 I'm passing through a connecting tunnel.
729 01:35:51 Apparently, a kind of plasma energy conduit,
730 01:35:54 possibly a field coil for a gigantic imaging system.
731 01:36:09 Curious. I'm seeing images of planets, moons, stars,
732 01:36:14 whole galaxies, all stored here, recorded.
733 01:36:17 It could be a representation of V'Ger's entire journey.
734 01:36:25 But who or what are we dealing with?
735 01:36:29 The Epsilon IX station, stored here with every detail.
736 01:36:41 Captain, I am now quite convinced that all of this is V'Ger.
737 01:36:46 That we are inside a living machine.
738 01:36:54 Ilia!
739 01:37:01 The sensor must contain some special meaning.
740 01:37:09 I must try to mindmeld with it.
741 01:38:05 Spock! Spock! Spock!
742 01:38:26 Now scanning pons area at spinal nerve fiber connection.
743 01:38:34 Indications of some neurological trauma.
744 01:38:38 The power pouring through that mindmeld must have been staggering.
745 01:38:49 Spock. Jim,
746 01:38:55 I should have known. Were you right? About V'Ger?
747 01:39:01 A life form of its own.
748 01:39:04 A conscious, living entity. A living machine?
749 01:39:09 It considers the Enterprise a living machine.
750 01:39:11 That's why the probe refers to our ship as an entity.
751 01:39:13 I saw V'Ger's planet,
752 01:39:16 a planet populated by living machines.
753 01:39:20 Unbelievable technology.
754 01:39:25 V'Ger has knowledge that spans this universe.
755 01:39:30 And yet, with all its pure logic,
756 01:39:35 V'Ger is barren, cold.
757 01:39:39 No mystery. No beauty.
758 01:39:47 I should've known.
759 01:39:51 Known? Known what? Spock.
760 01:39:56 Captain. Bones!
761 01:40:02 Spock! What should you have known? What should you have known?
762 01:40:13 Jim, this simple feeling
763 01:40:24 is beyond V'Ger's comprehension.
764 01:40:35 No meaning. No hope.
765 01:40:39 And Jim, no answers.
766 01:40:45 It's asking questions. What questions?
767 01:40:48 "Is this all that I am?"
768 01:40:53 "Is there nothing more?"
769 01:41:01 Bridge to Captain.
770 01:41:07 Kirk here.
771 01:41:08 A faint signal from Starfleet, sir.
772 01:41:11 Intruder cloud has been located on their outer monitors for the past 27 minutes.
773 01:41:16 Cloud dissipating rapidly as it approaches.
774 01:41:19 Starfleet reports forward velocity has slowed to subwarp speed.
775 01:41:23 We are three minutes from Earth orbit. I'll be right there.
776 01:41:31 I need Spock on the bridge.
777 01:41:34 Dalaphaline, five cc's.
778 01:41:37 A machine planet sending a machine to Earth,
779 01:41:44 looking for its Creator. It's absolutely incredible.
780 01:41:56 Mr. Chekov, Commander Decker's present location?
781 01:41:59 He... They are in engineering, sir.
782 01:42:11 Captain, Starfleet is sending this tactical on V'Ger's position.
783 01:42:16 V'Ger is transmitting a signal.
784 01:42:22 Jim. From V'Ger.
785 01:42:29 V'Ger signals the Creator.
786 01:42:49 A simple binary code transmitted by carrier wave signal.
787 01:42:56 Radio.
788 01:42:59 Radio?
789 01:43:06 Jim, V'Ger expects an answer.
790 01:43:11 An answer? I don't know the question.
791 01:43:15 The Creator has not responded.
792 01:43:32 All planetary defense systems have just gone inoperative!
793 01:44:16 Sir, Starfleet computes the devices are proceeding
794 01:44:20 toward equidistant positions, orbiting the planet.
795 01:44:23 They're the same things that hit us.
796 01:44:25 They are hundreds of times more powerful, Captain.
797 01:44:28 From those positions, they could devastate the entire surface of the planet.
798 01:44:45 Why? The Creator has not answered.
799 01:44:49 The carbonunit infestation is to be removed from the Creator's planet.
800 01:44:53 Why? You infest Enterprise.
801 01:44:57 You interfere with the Creator in the same manner.
802 01:45:02 Machine. V'Ger. V'Ger!
803 01:45:21 Captain.
804 01:45:27 V'Ger is a child. I suggest you treat her as such.
805 01:45:33 A child? Yes, Captain. A child.
806 01:45:36 Evolving, learning, searching,
807 01:45:41 instinctively needing. Needing what?
808 01:45:45 Spock, this child is about to wipe out every living thing on Earth.
809 01:45:50 Now what do you suggest we do? Spank it?
810 01:45:56 It knows only that it needs, Commander,
811 01:46:00 but like so many of us, it does not know what.
812 01:46:18 The carbon units know why the Creator has not responded.
813 01:46:25 Disclose the information.
814 01:46:27 Not until V'Ger withdraws the devices orbiting the third planet!
815 01:46:31 Captain!
816 01:46:35 I'm losing Starfleet! Interference from V'Ger!
817 01:46:39 Kirkunit, disclose the information.
818 01:46:44 Why has the Creator not responded?
819 01:46:47 No.
820 01:46:52 Secure all stations. Clear the bridge.
821 01:46:59 Clear the bridge, Captain?
822 01:47:01 That was the order, Mr. Sulu. Clear the bridge! Aye, sir.
823 01:47:11 Your child is having a tantrum, Mr. Spock.
824 01:47:16 V'Ger requires the information.
825 01:47:22 Bridge! Secure all stations! Move out!
826 01:47:25 Jim, what the hell kind of strategy is this?
827 01:47:29 All ship's functions going to automatic, Captain.
828 01:47:31 If V'Ger destroys the Enterprise,
829 01:47:34 the information that V'Ger requires will also be destroyed!
830 01:47:36 It is illogical to withhold required information.
831 01:47:40 Kirkunit! Kirkunit.
832 01:47:46 Why do you not disclose information?
833 01:47:53 Because V'Ger's going to destroy all the carbon units on the third planet.
834 01:47:56 They have repressed the Creator. The information will not be disclosed!
835 01:48:01 V'Ger needs the information.
836 01:48:04 Then V'Ger must withdraw all the orbiting devices.
837 01:48:09 V'Ger will comply, if the carbon units will disclose the information.
838 01:48:21 It learns fast, doesn't it?
839 01:48:23 Captain, the vessel, V'Ger,
840 01:48:26 obviously operates from a central brain complex.
841 01:48:30 The orbiting devices would be controlled from that point then?
842 01:48:33 Precisely.
843 01:48:45 The carbon unit's information cannot be disclosed to V'Ger's probe,
844 01:48:49 but only to V'Ger directly.
845 01:49:15 Forward motion, Captain. Tractor beam.
846 01:49:36 Captain, what's the next move?
847 01:49:40 The question is, Mr. Decker, is there a next move?
848 01:49:47 Resume duty stations.
849 01:49:50 All personnel, resume stations!
850 01:49:58 Well, Mr. Decker, it seems my bluff has been called.
851 01:50:04 I'm afraid our hand is pretty weak, Captain.
852 01:50:11 Mr. Chekov, when do those devices reach final position?
853 01:50:15 Twentyseven minutes. Mark!
854 01:50:24 Captain, I believe that is our destination. Forward motion, slowing, Captain.
855 01:50:39 I read an oxygengravity envelope forming outside the Enterprise.
856 01:50:52 Forward motion, stopped, Captain.
857 01:50:58 V'Ger.
858 01:51:00 Sir, I've located the source of V'Ger's radio signal.
859 01:51:04 It's directly ahead.
860 01:51:06 That transmitter is a vital link between V'Ger and its Creator.
861 01:51:13 The carbon units will now provide V'Ger with the required information.
862 01:51:25 Mr. Spock? Bones?
863 01:51:31 Mr. Decker, I will contact you every five minutes.
864 01:51:39 Captain, I'd like to go along.
865 01:51:44 Mr. Sulu, you have the conn.
866 01:53:41 V'Ger.
867 01:54:55 VGER.
868 01:55:01 V'Ger.
869 01:55:16 VOYAGER.
870 01:55:20 Voyager!
871 01:55:25 Voyager VI!
872 01:55:27 NASA. (National Aeronautics and Space Administration.)
873 01:55:32 Jim, this was launched more than 300 years ago.
874 01:55:40 Voyager series,
875 01:55:43 designed to collect data and transmit it back to Earth.
876 01:56:32 Captain, Voyager VI disappeared into what they used to call a black hole.
877 01:56:39 It must have emerged on the far side of the galaxy
878 01:56:43 and fell into the machine planet's gravitational field.
879 01:56:46 The machine inhabitants found it to be one of their own kind.
880 01:56:50 Primitive, yet kindred.
881 01:56:53 They discovered its simple 20thcentury programming.
882 01:56:56 "Collect all data possible."
883 01:56:59 "Learn all that is learnable."
884 01:57:03 Return that information to its Creator. Precisely, Mr. Decker.
885 01:57:08 The machines interpreted it literally. They built this entire vessel
886 01:57:12 so that Voyager could actually fulfil its programming.
887 01:57:16 And on its journey back,
888 01:57:20 it amassed so much knowledge,
889 01:57:24 it achieved consciousness itself.
890 01:57:29 It became a living thing.
891 01:57:45 Kirkunit. V'Ger awaits the information.
892 01:57:51 Enterprise, order up the ship's computer library of records
893 01:57:55 on the late 20th century NASA probe, Voyager VI.
894 01:57:59 Specifically, we want the old NASA code signal
895 01:58:02 that instructs the probe to transmit its data.
896 01:58:04 And fast, Uhura, fast! Aye, sir.
897 01:58:07 That's what it's been signaling! Its readiness to transmit its information!
898 01:58:11 And there's no one on Earth who could
899 01:58:13 recognize the old signal and send a response.
900 01:58:15 "The Creator does not answer."
901 01:58:28 V'Ger. V'Ger. V'Ger!
902 01:58:45 We are the Creator.
903 01:58:48 That is not logical. Carbon units are not true life forms.
904 01:58:52 We will prove it. We will make it possible for you to complete your programming.
905 01:58:57 Only the Creator could accomplish that.
906 01:59:02 Enterprise.
907 01:59:03 We have just received the response code, Captain.
908 01:59:06 Set the Enterprise transmitter on appropriate frequency
909 01:59:09 and transmit the code now!
910 01:59:11 Transmitting.
911 01:59:14 504, 329, 317, 510,
912 01:59:23 and the final sequence...
913 01:59:26 That should trigger Voyager's transmitter.
914 01:59:41 Voyager is not transmitting its data, Captain.
915 01:59:46 The Creator must join with V'Ger.
916 01:59:51 Uhura! Repeat the final sequence.
917 01:59:58 The Creator must join with V'Ger.
918 02:00:21 Voyager is not transmitting, Captain,
919 02:00:24 because it did not receive the final sequence.
920 02:00:27 Jim! We're down to 10 minutes.
921 02:00:29 Enterprise, stand by.
922 02:00:40 The antenna leads are melted away. Yes, Captain, just now.
923 02:00:44 By V'Ger itself. Why? To prevent reception.
924 02:00:49 Of course, to bring the Creator here to finish transmitting the code in person.
925 02:01:00 To touch the Creator.
926 02:01:04 Capture God? V'Ger's liable to be in for one hell of a disappointment.
927 02:01:10 Perhaps not, Doctor.
928 02:01:35 Captain.
929 02:01:43 V'Ger must evolve.
930 02:01:45 Its knowledge has reached the limits of this universe and it must evolve.
931 02:01:49 What it requires of its God, Doctor, is the answer to its question,
932 02:01:52 "Is there nothing more?"
933 02:01:54 What more is there than the universe, Spock?
934 02:01:56 Other dimensions, higher levels of being.
935 02:01:59 The existence of which cannot be proven logically.
936 02:02:01 Therefore, V'Ger is incapable of believing in them.
937 02:02:05 What V'Ger needs in order to evolve is a human quality,
938 02:02:09 our capacity to leap beyond logic.
939 02:02:16 And joining with its Creator might accomplish that.
940 02:02:19 You mean, this machine wants to physically join with a human?
941 02:02:23 Is that possible?
942 02:02:28 Let's find out.
943 02:02:38 Decker! I'm going to key the final sequence through the ground test computer.
944 02:02:42 Decker, you don't know what that'll do to you!
945 02:02:45 Yes, I do, Doctor!
946 02:02:53 Decker, don't!
947 02:02:54 Jim, I want this. As much as you wanted the Enterprise, I want this.
948 02:05:55 Captain.
949 02:05:58 Spock, did we just see the beginning of a new life form?
950 02:06:02 Yes, Captain. We witnessed a birth.
951 02:06:06 Possibly, a next step in our evolution. I wonder.
952 02:06:10 Well, it's been a long time since I delivered a baby,
953 02:06:13 and I hope we got this one off to a good start. I hope so, too.
954 02:06:18 I think we gave it the ability to create its own sense of purpose
955 02:06:24 out of our own human weaknesses
956 02:06:27 and the drive that compels us to overcome.
957 02:06:30 And a lot of foolish human emotions, right, Mr. Spock?
958 02:06:34 Quite true, Doctor. Unfortunately, it will have to deal with them as well.
959 02:06:40 Interrogative from Starfleet.
960 02:06:42 They're requesting damage and injury reports and complete vessel status.
961 02:06:45 Report two casualties.
962 02:06:47 Lieutenant Ilia. Captain Decker.
963 02:06:52 Aye, sir. Correction. They're not casualties.
964 02:06:55 They are...
965 02:07:00 List them as missing.
966 02:07:03 Vessel status, fully operational. Aye, sir.
967 02:07:07 Mr. Scott!
968 02:07:09 Shall we give the Enterprise a proper shakedown?
969 02:07:12 I would say it's time for that, sir. Aye.
970 02:07:15 We can have you back on Vulcan in four days, Mr. Spock.
971 02:07:18 Unnecessary, Mr. Scott. My task on Vulcan is completed.
972 02:07:24 Mr. Sulu, ahead warp 1. Warp 1, sir.
973 02:07:28 Heading, sir?
974 02:07:33 Out there.
975 02:07:37 Thataway.
