These Are the Voyages...
00:00:01When are they expecting you in Brazil?
00:00:03I told them a couple weeks after the ceremony.
00:00:05With all the receptions, and then I'll need at least a week to clear up the linguistic database.
00:00:10After 10 years on this ship,
00:00:12I bet it'll take a while getting used to the humidity again.
00:00:15And the bugs.
00:00:17Does the captain have to give a speech?
00:00:19He's working on it now.
00:00:21He hates giving speeches.
00:00:23He'll undoubtedly make every effort to take no credit.
00:00:26Undoubtedly.
00:00:27That'd be like zefram cochrane not taking credit for warp drive.
00:00:31How do you pronounce the name of the second tellarite liberator?
00:00:34-Challash? -Shallash.
00:00:37Shallash. Thanks.
00:00:39How's it going, sir?
00:00:40Whatever I write, it sounds like I'm trying to take credit for this.
00:00:43Captain, Admiral Douglas is asking you to approve the decommission protocols.
00:00:47One thing at a time. After the charter's signed,
00:00:49I'll give him whatever he needs to put Enterprise in mothballs.

00:02:36[Riker] First officer's personal log, Stardate 47457.1.
00:02:41With the unexpected arrival of Admiral Pressman, my old C.O.,
00:02:45I find myself in an awkward position.
00:02:48Counselor Troi has suggested I might get a few insights
00:02:50by calling up an historic holoprogram.
00:03:01{\an8}[Troi] Are you sure you don't want to talk about what happened?
00:03:03{\an8}I've told you everything I can.
00:03:05{\an8}If it's a question of breaking a promise...
00:03:07{\an8}Not a promise. An order.
00:03:10{\an8}Have you learned anything on the holodeck about breaking orders?
00:03:12{\an8}Not yet.
00:03:14{\an8}I've gone back a couple of days earlier to get a perspective.
00:03:16{\an8}But I really don't see how this is gonna help.
00:03:19{\an8}That's why you run a starship, and I'm a counselor.
00:03:24{\an8}Reed's shorter than I thought he'd be.
00:03:26{\an8}Maybe the program's off.
00:03:27{\an8}No, I'm sure it's fine.
00:03:29{\an8}It's just, you expect larger-than-life people
00:03:31{\an8}to be larger-than-life.
00:03:32{\an8}-Has the Andorian hailed them? -Not yet.
00:03:34{\an8}You might want to leap ahead to that point.
00:03:36{\an8}It's where things start really happening.
00:03:38{\an8}And you should consider taking over the galley.
00:03:41{\an8}Why?
00:03:42{\an8}Well, Starfleet ships didn't have counselors in those days,
00:03:44{\an8}But the chef on the first Enterprise came pretty close.
00:03:48{\an8}I read almost everybody confided in him.
00:03:50{\an8}I'll keep that in mind.
00:03:52{\an8}-Supper? -You bet.
00:03:53{\an8}-I'll give you an update. -OK.
00:03:59{\an8}That's impossible.
00:04:02{\an8}Shran's been dead for what, three years?
00:04:04{\an8}[beeping]
00:04:09{\an8}This is quite a surprise.
00:04:11{\an8}I'm sorry, pink-skin, but it was essential
00:04:14{\an8}certain people believed I had met my demise.
00:04:17Including me.
00:04:18I know it's been a while, but as I recall, you still owe me a favor.
00:04:23I remember.
00:04:25But this isn't a good time, Shran.
00:04:27I assume you know where we're heading.
00:04:29I may no longer be a member of the imperial guard,
00:04:31but I'm aware of the proposed coalition.
00:04:33It's more than a proposal.
00:04:35We're on our way to earth to sign the charter.
00:04:37The ceremony isn't for three days.
00:04:39If my plan works, you'll be home in plenty of time.
00:04:42[scoffs]
00:04:44I'm afraid a detour is out of the question right now.
00:04:47My child's been abducted!
00:04:50Kidnapped. You owe me.
00:04:54You never told me you had a child.
00:04:56Jhamel gave birth five years ago. A daughter. They've taken her.
00:05:01Who?
00:05:03Former associates. It's a long story. You need to let me come aboard.
00:05:13Set a rendezvous course.
00:05:14Computer, freeze program.
00:05:16[beeps]
00:05:17Advance ahead one hour.
00:05:20Switch to objective mode.
00:05:30[Shran] Who would have thought civilian life would be more dangerous than commanding a ship for the imperial guard.
00:05:35I still don't understand why you left. You were a hero.
00:05:39A hero with a family.
00:05:42I always believed that change was a good thing.
00:05:46I was a fool.
00:05:47-Why would you fake your own death? -I made some poor choices.
00:05:51Picked the wrong friends, people involved in questionable business ventures.
00:05:57They think I took something that belonged to them.
00:06:01With the help of some old colleagues from the guard,
00:06:04I managed to make myself disappear.
00:06:07It worked... for nearly three years.
00:06:11-Your friends found you? -Six months ago.
00:06:14I've been on the move ever since.
00:06:17They took her in the middle of the night.
00:06:20I was in the next room, asleep!
00:06:24Useless!
00:06:27It's been a week.
00:06:29They say if I don't return what's theirs, they'll kill her.
00:06:34Then give them what they want.
00:06:36I don't have it! I never did.
00:06:39But you have a plan.
00:06:41[Shran] It cost me everything I had, but I managed to find out where they've taken her.
00:06:47They're on a trading outpost, Rigel X.
00:06:50-I'm familiar with it. -I know these men quite well, Captain.
00:06:53I can outwit them. I've done it before. But I'll need at least seven men.
00:06:58You have to help me. It's my little girl.
00:07:03He's an admitted criminal. You said so yourself.
00:07:06He said he fell in with some disreputable people.
00:07:08That doesn't make him a criminal.
00:07:10If we're late for the ceremony, it'll have far-reaching consequences.
00:07:13If Shran hadn't helped us,
00:07:14I never would have gotten aboard the Xindi weapon.
00:07:16Have you forgotten that?
00:07:18This alliance is based on friendship and loyalty, exactly what Shran is looking for right now.
00:07:22I don't trust him.
00:07:23You don't trust Andorians. You never have.
00:07:25Thank god the Vulcan council is a little more enlightened than you are.
00:07:29If they're willing to forge an alliance with Andoria, the least you can do is give Shran the benefit of the doubt.
00:07:34When we met 10 years ago, I didn't trust you.
00:07:39For that matter, I didn't trust any Vulcans.
00:07:41You helped me get past that, remember?
00:07:44I listened to you. Now it's your turn to listen to me.
00:07:48I can't turn my back on him, T'pol.
00:07:51-Try to understand. -I'll try.
00:07:55[Archer] By the way...
00:07:58Drop by the galley when you get a moment.
00:08:01Chef's trying to come up with a menu for our last dinner together.
00:08:04He wants to know everybody's favorite dish.
00:08:07[T'pol] There are 83 crew members aboard.
00:08:09Just go see him, all right?
00:08:12[whining]
00:08:16[Archer] Don't worry.
00:08:18Chef's promised at least six kinds of cheese.
00:08:22[T'pol] I appreciate the gesture, but it's not necessary to prepare a special dish for me.
00:08:27Come on.
00:08:29I've already started to reduce the plomeek broth.
00:08:31All I need to know is which roots you prefer.
00:08:34In that case, I prefer to be surprised.
00:08:37Pull up a chair. I could use the company.
00:08:41I heard a rumor I may be whipping up some Andorian cabbage soup tonight.
00:08:45We have already lost five hours picking up Shran's shuttle.
00:08:49Now we're going to lose at least another day diverting our course to Rigel.
00:08:53His child's in danger.
00:08:55Is there anything aboard this ship you don't know?
00:08:58Jonathan is a compassionate man. You should know that by now.
00:09:01His compassion has gotten us into trouble on many occasions.
00:09:06We could miss this ceremony.
00:09:08Don't worry. I've got a hunch you're gonna make it.
00:09:11-Tea? -Thank you.
00:09:13Phlox has given me his largest Edosian suckerfish.
00:09:17Excuse me?
00:09:20Looks like a catfish. I'm hoping it tastes like one.
00:09:23Commander Tucker's crazy for catfish.
00:09:26Do you ever miss him?
00:09:28I spent the morning with him, recalibrating the plasma array.
00:09:31That's not what I mean.
00:09:32If you're referring to our intimate relationship, that's been over for six years.
00:09:38But the question remains, do you miss him?
00:09:40I'm Vulcan. I don't miss people.
00:09:44Sorry. I forgot.
00:09:45Is he as concerned as you about making this ceremony?
00:09:48Trip rarely questions the Captain's decisions.
00:09:50He doesn't strike me as someone who follows orders blindly.
00:09:54He's not.
00:09:55He simply tends to agree with the Captain most of the time.
00:09:58He trusts him.
00:10:01Would you peel these for me?
00:10:07Before I joined this crew,
00:10:09I never could have imagined anything more important than following orders.
00:10:12And now?
00:10:14Humans believe that sometimes you have to follow your instincts.
00:10:19Very illogical approach, but one I've come to embrace.
00:10:26-Computer, freeze program. -[computer beeps]
00:10:29Thanks.
00:10:42[beeping]
00:10:52[door opens]
00:10:54There you are.
00:10:57Someone you know?
00:10:58Someone I knew.
00:11:00Pegasus?
00:11:01Phil Wallace. Hell of a handball player.
00:11:05Pressman was getting ready to promote him.
00:11:07How many died?
00:11:09Seventy one. All but nine of us.
00:11:12How do you feel about learning the ship wasn't destroyed?
00:11:16What difference does it make? 71 people died.
00:11:20You're feeling guilty.
00:11:23You think, in some way, you were responsible?
00:11:25You're the empath. Why don't you tell me?
00:11:30I think it's something else, something about seeing that ship again.
00:11:34-Why don't we change the subject? OK? -OK.
00:11:38How did things go on the holodeck?
00:11:41They picked up the Andorian. They're on their way to Rigel X.
00:11:43I was referring to any insight you may have gained.
00:11:46I took your advice about the chef. You were right. T'pol opened up to me.
00:11:50-Have you met with Commander Tucker? -No, I haven't made it to Engineering yet.
00:11:54-Have you spent any time on the NX-01? -I've never run the program.
00:11:57What about the ship itself?
00:11:59I think I went when I was a little girl, but I get all those museum ships mixed up.
00:12:03Now's your chance. Come on down with me.
00:12:06I have an appointment in an hour.
00:12:08I'll get you back in plenty of time. Come on.
00:12:12Our Brig is bigger than this.
00:12:13A lot of things change in 200 years. Watch yourself!
00:12:16No fish tank.
00:12:17How could archer survive without a fish tank?
00:12:23Allow me.
00:12:29He does have a dog, though.
00:12:30Right, I remember. One of the musketeers.
00:12:33Porthos.
00:12:35Oh, comfy.
00:12:36No seat for the first officer?
00:12:39Perhaps, Archer wasn't as fussy as Captain Picard, when it came to people sitting in his chair.
00:12:46[beeping]
00:12:48I remember seeing one of these in a photograph.
00:12:50Kirk's ship had them, I think. Engineering's down this way.
00:12:54There's something lonely about a ship without its crew.
00:12:57Computer, add an appropriate crew complement, objective mode.
00:13:00[beeping]
00:13:02That's better.
00:13:04If you recall, Rigel X is filled with a very unsavory element.
00:13:09And I rather doubt Shran's scheme will be quite as simple as he claims.
00:13:12I can't imagine the Captain would put us in jeopardy this close to signing the charter.
00:13:16-I don't like it. -[electronic humming]
00:13:19What exactly are you doing?
00:13:21These injectors need to be purged every six months.
00:13:25Are the deuterium filters clear?
00:13:27-We've done all but three. -All right.
00:13:29-Make it quick. -Aye, sir.
00:13:32Well, what's the point?
00:13:33This ship will be joining the mothball fleet next week.
00:13:36I pretty much built this engine.
00:13:38Plan to take care of it as long as I can.
00:13:43[sighs]
00:13:46Been a hell of a run, Malcolm.
00:13:50I never thought it would come to an end.
00:13:56All good things...
00:14:00Captain thinks there'll be another Enterprise before too long.
00:14:04I imagine.
00:14:06It won't be the same.
00:14:11That's OK.
00:14:15Come on.
00:14:22It's sad.
00:14:24Commander Tucker had no idea he wouldn't make it back.
00:14:29How reliable are your sources?
00:14:31[Shran] They're criminals, but honorable ones.
00:14:34They promise me that Talla's being held here. At upper level 4.
00:14:38Have you fashioned the amethyst?
00:14:40The photograph you gave us had poor resolution, but I'm confident our replication will look authentic.
00:14:46The Teneebian amethyst they think I stole was flawless.
00:14:49They'll undoubtedly have magnifying equipment with them.
00:14:51They'll need a spectral micrometer to see it's a fabrication.
00:14:55How many do you expect to show up?
00:14:57-Computer, freeze program. -[beeping]
00:15:02-He's cute. -Don't get any ideas.
00:15:05Reg will be furious if I'm late.
00:15:07-Are you gonna stay? -[Riker] Yeah, for a little while.
00:15:09Good luck. Computer, arch.
00:15:16Computer, how long before they reach Rigel X?
00:15:18[computer] Sixteen hours, 22 minutes.
00:15:20Advance to that point. Stay in objective mode.
00:15:24Move into a stationary orbit.
00:15:26[Travis] Aye, sir.
00:15:27Put a team together. Meet us in the launch bay.
00:15:29[Tucker] Captain, can I have a word with you?
00:15:35We can handle this without you.
00:15:37-Well, that's flattering. -You know what I mean.
00:15:40You've got the biggest day of your life coming up.
00:15:42A lot of people are counting on you being there.
00:15:44I appreciate you worrying about me, but I'll be fine.
00:15:46You don't need to be putting yourself in harm's way.
00:15:49I'm telling you, we can take care of it.
00:15:51Rigel was the first place we visited, remember?
00:15:53Now it's gonna be the last.
00:15:55Poetic justice.
00:15:57Why should you have all the fun?
00:16:05We're going through the troposphere.
00:16:07Might get a little bumpy.
00:16:08Have you been down to see chef yet?
00:16:11First thing this morning. You?
00:16:15He talked about you.
00:16:17-Me? -Us.
00:16:19[Tucker] What about us?
00:16:23It's not important.
00:16:25[chuckles] Why'd you bring it up, then?
00:16:28[rumbling]
00:16:33Do you ever miss me?
00:16:37-You mean... -Yes.
00:16:40You know how long it's been?
00:16:42That's not what I asked you.
00:16:45Well, um...
00:16:49Yeah, I guess, sometimes.
00:16:54I haven't thought about those days in a long time.
00:16:57Benefit of being a Vulcan.
00:17:00After speaking with chef,
00:17:02I realized we may never see each other again.
00:17:04-What are you talking about? -We're taking different assignments.
00:17:08-There's no way of knowing-- -There's every way of knowing.
00:17:13I can guarantee you we're not gonna lose touch.
00:17:17Stop thinking like that.
00:17:23However long it may be, I believe I'm going to miss you.
00:17:30[Archer] Archer to Shuttlepod 2.
00:17:32Go ahead, sir.
00:17:33[Archer] Shran's made contact. Everything's set.
00:17:36-I'll lead you in. -Understood.
00:17:56[Alien] Stop there.
00:18:00Unless I'm mistaken,
00:18:01I thought you had no idea where the amethyst was.
00:18:05Where's my daughter?
00:18:06Funny how a missing child is a way to jog the memory, eh, Shran?
00:18:10Where is she?
00:18:12I thought you were happily married.
00:18:14Who's the Vulcan?
00:18:15I'm not interested in your associates, so don't question mine.
00:18:19Put the case down and open it.
00:18:21We want the child first.
00:18:23I could shoot you both.
00:18:24You'll never get this case open, I promise you.
00:18:28You let a female negotiate for you, eh, Shran?
00:18:31You heard her.
00:18:43-Are you all right? -I'm hungry.
00:18:46Now open the case.
00:18:52[beeping]
00:19:07Set it down.
00:19:16Now back up.
00:19:21Let her take the girl.
00:19:23Fine, but you stay.
00:19:25One step, and this little blue beauty won't have a father to come home to.
00:19:37I want you to go with T'pol. You'll be safe with her.
00:19:42She'll find you something to eat.
00:19:48Obey your father.
00:20:02Now step back.
00:20:16[beeping]
00:20:25[beeping]
00:20:27-What are you doing? -[beeping]
00:20:42[screams]
00:20:44Stand still, and you won't be harmed!
00:20:47[shouts indistinctly]
00:21:12Ugh!
00:21:22Aah!
00:21:34Hold on!
00:21:39[grunting]
00:21:42Thanks, boss.
00:21:46Anytime.
00:21:56You're certain that it won't be a problem?
00:22:00[Archer] I'll feel more comfortable getting you away from your friends at warp 4.
00:22:04[Shran] My shuttle may be slow, but their ships can barely make warp 2.
00:22:08All the same, you'll be under your own power by tomorrow night.
00:22:11We'll contact your wife and tell her to expect you the next morning.
00:22:14I told you my plan would only take a few hours.
00:22:16You're welcome.
00:22:18[chuckles]
00:22:19You should let phlox take a look at her before you go to your quarters.
00:22:22Whatever you say, captain.
00:22:24Thanks, pink-skin.
00:22:26[chuckles]
00:22:30You must be getting tired of saving my life.
00:22:33I'm glad I didn't take your advice about not coming along.
00:22:35Yeah, you and me both.
00:22:36Then again, you almost got yourself killed down there.
00:22:39Wouldn't have gone over too big at the ceremony.
00:22:41Signing documents are easy. Training a new engineer... that can be a real pain in the ass.
00:22:59-[communicator beeps] -[Data] Data to counselor Troi.
00:23:02Yes, Data?
00:23:03[Data] I was wondering if this might be an appropriate time
00:23:05to continue our discussion on the long-term effects of space travel
00:23:08on my positronic net.
00:23:10Can I give you a rain check?
00:23:12[Data] You may, check me for rain if you wish, counselor,
00:23:15but I assure you, I have no water in my--
00:23:17-[door chimes] -Data, I'll get back to you.
00:23:19Come in.
00:23:21I know it's past office hours.
00:23:23What is it?
00:23:27It won't be long before they find the Pegasus.
00:23:29You haven't made your decision.
00:23:33[Troi] The holodeck?
00:23:34They rescued the Andorian's daughter.
00:23:35So, you're coming to the moment of truth in there, as well.
00:23:39I need you to promise you'll keep this confidential.
00:23:42You know I will.
00:23:43What do you know about the treaty of Algeron?
00:23:452311. It redefined the Romulan neutral zone.
00:23:49It also outlawed the use of cloaking technology on Starfleet vessels.
00:23:54The Pegasus?
00:23:56A secret group in Starfleet security developed a prototype.
00:23:59Pressman was put in charge of testing it.
00:24:01That's why they're so eager to find it before the Romulans do.
00:24:05The accident, the 71 people who died...
00:24:08-We were testing the cloaking device. -It was covered up.
00:24:12The nine of us who made it back alive were sworn to secrecy.
00:24:15And you've lived with that for 12 years?
00:24:17And they want to pick the experiment up where they left off.
00:24:20Are you sure?
00:24:22Pressman told me himself.
00:24:24What they're doing is wrong.
00:24:27It could jeopardize the treaty.
00:24:31And you want to tell that to Captain Picard.
00:24:33I took an oath of secrecy. Pressman still outranks the Captain.
00:24:38Will...
00:24:41You didn't get this far in your career making easy decisions.
00:24:46I'm confident you'll make the right one now.
00:24:50I wish I was.
00:24:53[Reed] He was anything but tactful.
00:24:56What his countrymen might refer to as a hick.
00:24:58For the life of me,
00:24:59I couldn't understand what captain archer saw in him.
00:25:01Thinner. Roll it a little bit thinner, like this.
00:25:03Oh, yeah, right.
00:25:05[Riker] Go on.
00:25:06[Reed sighs] That's about it, really.
00:25:08I used to think that first impressions meant something.
00:25:11I guess it's not always true. You know, to be honest,
00:25:15I didn't think he was gonna last a month.
00:25:17Old friend of the captain's or not.
00:25:20And now, I can't imagine what these last 10 years would have been like without him.
00:25:25Did you ever find yourself attracted to him?
00:25:28-Maybe a little. -Hmm.
00:25:30-I never really thought he was my type. -Hmm.
00:25:32Didn't even graduate college, he learned about engineering working on boat engines, I think.
00:25:38Never cared much about languages.
00:25:40[snickers] Could barely speak English.
00:25:45But he did have his moments.
00:25:49I still find him kind of cute.
00:25:52-Keep that to yourself. -Always do.
00:25:55Captain said they've known each other a long time.
00:25:57Close to 20 years.
00:25:59He taught the captain how to scuba dive somewhere off the coast of Florida.
00:26:02You're pressing too hard. Just slow, steady movement.
00:26:04-Oh, sorry. -No need to apologize.
00:26:06They've got a shorthand they use sometimes.
00:26:08Comes from spending so much time together.
00:26:11Did Trip ever take a swing at Picard?
00:26:13-At who? -Archer, Captain Archer?
00:26:17Not that I know of. When push comes to shove,
00:26:20Commander Tucker usually ends up doing the right thing.
00:26:23[Travis] How am I doing?
00:26:24Well, don't let it get too big. Now fold it over.
00:26:26There you go.
00:26:27[laughing]
00:26:30And he's always pushing himself, Often to the point of exhaustion.
00:26:33He's forced me to order him to relax on more than one occasion.
00:26:36To relax?
00:26:37Yeah. Wasn't very keen on getting neuropressure treatments from T'pol.
00:26:41But it was that or become addicted to sedatives.
00:26:44If I remember correctly, that's when...
00:26:46Their romance began? Mm. Precisely.
00:26:49One time, he became so exhausted, I had to demand he get six hours sleep.
00:26:53He negotiated it down to four. A very stubborn young man.
00:26:58Ah! [chuckles] I quite enjoy this.
00:27:02So did he follow your orders?
00:27:03Didn't have a choice.
00:27:06You've always got a choice.
00:27:10So, you think this alliance is gonna hold?
00:27:12We better hope so.
00:27:13There are thousands of planets within reach.
00:27:15Got to start somewhere.
00:27:17Who would have guessed?
00:27:18Vulcans and Andorians in the same bed.
00:27:22The Tellarites were never big fans of the Andorians, either.
00:27:26This is a special bottle of whiskey.
00:27:29Zefram Cochrane gave it to my father the day they broke ground at the warp 5 complex.
00:27:33And here we are... toasting to warp 7.
00:27:38Here's to the next generation.
00:27:46Written your speech yet?
00:27:47I always cram before exams. I've got three days left.
00:27:51The biggest day of your life, and you're gonna wait until the night before.
00:27:53It's the biggest day of our lives.
00:27:55Oh, I hate to contradict you, Captain.
00:27:57You're the man they're waiting to see.
00:27:59[rumbling]
00:28:04-[beeps] -Archer to the Bridge. What's going on?
00:28:07[T'pol] We're under attack, sir. A small vessel.
00:28:09[Archer] Who are they?
00:28:10[T'pol] We don't know yet.
00:28:12-[rumbling] -[alarm ringing]
00:28:14[T'pol] Intruder alert.
00:28:19We've come for Shran and the child.
00:28:21I thought you said their ship couldn't catch up to us.
00:28:23Remind me to mention that to Shran.
00:28:26You're leaving me very little choice.
00:28:28Shran left six hours ago. You're too late.
00:28:31You're lying. His shuttle is still in your launch bay.
00:28:34-Kill him. -[Tucker] Hold on! W-wait a minute!
00:28:36-Trip, I'll take care of this. -The hell you will.
00:28:38I'll bring you to Shran. I know where he is.
00:28:39-I gave you an order, Commander. -You heard me.
00:28:41-I said I'd bring you to Shran. -Trip!
00:28:42Very well. Turn around, both of you!
00:28:44-[Tucker] Hey, this guy's the Captain. -That's enough.
00:28:45[Tucker] He's my boss.
00:28:46If I'm gonna disobey his order, I don't want him coming along.
00:28:48Trip, that's enough!
00:28:49Listen, I won't do this if you kill him, but could you please shut him up!
00:28:57Stop.
00:28:58You can't expect me to just leave him here alive.
00:29:00He's out cold. He's not gonna cause any trouble.
00:29:03Stay here.
00:29:04If we're not back in 10 minutes, kill him.
00:29:06Didn't you hear what I just said?
00:29:08I won't help you if you kill him. This might take longer than 10 minutes!
00:29:11Take me to Shran, or I'll kill him right now!
00:29:14OK, OK!
00:29:16I've got a better idea.
00:29:18I'll bring Shran to us. We don't have to go anywhere.
00:29:21[grunts]
00:29:24Be very careful.
00:29:27You can all come see for yourselves.
00:29:30This is just a comm station.
00:29:36I'm gonna need to open this so I can bypass the security protocols.
00:29:39Is that OK?
00:29:40As long as you keep your hands where we can see them.
00:29:42No problem.
00:29:44[beeps]
00:29:57All I need to do is connect this to the relay inside that panel.
00:30:01Stop. Open it for him.
00:30:05If there's a weapon in there, you're going to die before your Captain.
00:30:13Satisfied?
00:30:16Proceed.
00:30:23Hurry up. You're running out of time.
00:30:26There's just one other thing I need to tell you.
00:30:30You can all go straight to hell.
00:30:32[screaming]
00:30:37[groaning]
00:30:57Trip?
00:31:15[medic] He's not responding.
00:31:16[Phlox] Add two percent syntho-surfactant!
00:31:17[Archer] Doctor.
00:31:18[Phlox] The plasma was super-heated. It thermalized his lungs.
00:31:20Initialize a hyperbaric chamber.
00:31:24S-sorry about the r-rifle butt.
00:31:29[breathing heavily]
00:31:31-I was just trying to... -I know, Trip.
00:31:34Just take it easy. Everything's all right.
00:31:36We gonna be late?
00:31:37[Archer] No. We're gonna be right on schedule.
00:31:40I'll even have time to write my speech.
00:31:43Great news.
00:31:46Wait till they...
00:31:47[gasps]
00:31:49[beeping]
00:31:50We need to get him into the chamber now!
00:31:59Clear!
00:32:50Need any help?
00:32:53No, thank you.
00:32:56For his parents?
00:33:00Will they still be coming to the ceremony?
00:33:02I told them I thought Trip wouldn't want it any other way.
00:33:14Don't forget this.
00:33:19-I'd like to meet them. -His parents?
00:33:23Yes, I'd like to meet them.
00:33:25They're a little eccentric.
00:33:29I think you'll see where Trip got his sense of humor.
00:33:33My mother was somewhat eccentric, as well.
00:33:36[Archer] I remember.
00:33:42Trip told me, as the years went by, that I would miss her less.
00:33:46But he was wrong, because I find myself missing her more.
00:33:54[sighs] Why would he tell me that?
00:33:57[sighs]
00:33:59Time heals all wounds.
00:34:01But absence makes the heart grow fonder.
00:34:05I guess it's a little tricky.
00:34:10Emotions have a way of contradicting themselves.
00:34:15And you wonder why we suppress them?
00:34:21When I took command 10 years ago,
00:34:24I saw myself as an explorer.
00:34:27I thought all the risks would be worth it.
00:34:31Because just beyond the next planet, just beyond the next star, there would be something magnificent, something noble.
00:34:45And now Trip is dead, and I have to give a speech about how worthwhile it's all been.
00:34:55Trip would be the first to say it was worthwhile.
00:35:12Fried catfish with hush puppies.
00:35:15Obviously, the captain mentioned why I wanted to see you.
00:35:17[chuckles]
00:35:18Keep in mind, within a week, I'll be eating the real thing.
00:35:21Taking my folks down to mobile.
00:35:22Nothing like a challenge.
00:35:24Captain asked for meatloaf, didn't he?
00:35:25I haven't spoken to him yet.
00:35:27How about T'pol? She won't be very cooperative.
00:35:30You wait and see.
00:35:32I've already started her plomeek broth.
00:35:34All she has to do is choose a few final ingredients.
00:35:37She'll be down here in about an hour.
00:35:39I hear we're on our way to pick up Shran.
00:35:41Can you believe it?
00:35:43We all thought he was dead and gone.
00:35:45Well, don't you think the Captain's cutting it a little close?
00:35:47You mean, getting back to San Francisco?
00:35:51Nah, he won't let anything get in the way of that.
00:35:53Trust me.
00:35:56Can you spare one of those carrots?
00:35:57-They're not peeled yet. -That's OK.
00:36:03You know, he'd never admit it, but this thing means a hell of a lot to him.
00:36:10He's real proud to be one of the people signing this charter.
00:36:13And he ought to be.
00:36:15You sound like a lifetime member of the Jonathan Archer fan club.
00:36:21I can count on one hand the number of people I trust.
00:36:25I don't mean trust like,
00:36:28"I trust you aren't lying to me," or "i trust you won't steal my money."
00:36:32I'm talking about the kind of trust where...
00:36:36You know someone's not gonna hurt you, no matter what, where you know they'll always be there for you, no matter how bad things get.
00:36:45You ever know anybody like that?
00:36:48Yeah.
00:36:50One or two.
00:36:54Well, I've got some packing to do before I go back on duty.
00:37:00You figured out what you're gonna do?
00:37:03Do?
00:37:04You gonna sign onto another ship, or are you gonna open up that little restaurant in the Berkshires you told me about?
00:37:08You know, I haven't decided yet. You got any advice?
00:37:11[chuckles] Nope.
00:37:13[laughs]
00:37:17But I'm sure you'll make the right choice.
00:37:30Are you certain these are the right seats?
00:37:32[Travis] Yep.
00:37:34They don't seem very V.I.P. to me.
00:37:37I'm sure the admiral wanted us to have a view that took in the scope of the occasion.
00:37:41From this distance, you can't tell an Andorian from a Tellarite.
00:37:46Oh, have you given an answer to Captain still well yet?
00:37:48I've asked him for a little more time, until captain archer decides what he's going to be doing.
00:37:53I'll bet you a month's pay he'll be on the bridge of a new ship.
00:37:56He won't be able to resist one of those warp 7 beauties.
00:37:59I've heard he's already been tapped for Admiral.
00:38:02Malcolm's right. They'll never keep him behind a desk.
00:38:05It's very wise of you to stick with him.
00:38:08That's exactly what I plan to do.
00:38:12[beeping]
00:38:19Please, stand still.
00:38:21If you hadn't waited until the last minute, you would have had time to memorize your speech.
00:38:26You sound like my 9th-grade teacher.
00:38:28There are dignitaries here from 18 different worlds.
00:38:32[chuckles] It's a good sign.
00:38:34I wouldn't be surprised if this alliance begins to expand before we know it.
00:38:39You should be very proud of yourself, Captain.
00:38:41I'll be proud of myself if I get this speech out in one piece.
00:38:45That's not what I meant.
00:38:48I know what you meant, Phlox, and I appreciate it.
00:38:52But this is not about me.
00:38:54Why do so many humans refuse to take credit where credit is due?
00:38:58There are times when modesty and humility are quite illogical.
00:39:03Whenever you're ready, sir.
00:39:06Well, I've got three wives waiting. I'd better go and join them.
00:39:11I'd wish you good luck, Captain, but you've always had an ample supply.
00:39:18Thank you, doctor.
00:39:26[Archer] You'd better get out there.
00:39:29You don't want to miss me screwing this thing up.
00:39:31I'm going to remain down here, if you don't mind.
00:39:35You never did like crowds, did you?
00:39:42You look... very heroic.
00:40:14[applause]
00:40:31Is he nervous?
00:40:32Wouldn't you be?
00:40:34Oh, he'll be fine.
00:40:35I had to memorize this speech in grammar school.
00:40:40You wish you could tell them all that this alliance will give birth to the Federation.
00:40:46I think I'm ready to talk to Captain Picard.
00:40:48I should have done it a long time ago.
00:40:51So, I guess we're through here.
00:40:53-[applause] -I guess we are.
00:40:55Computer...
00:40:56[beeps]
00:40:59...End program.
00:41:00[beeps]
00:41:14[Picard] Space, the final frontier.
00:41:18These are the voyages of the Starship Enterprise.
00:41:21Its continuing mission...
00:41:24[Kirk] To explore strange new worlds,
00:41:27to seek out new life and new civilizations...
00:41:32[Archer] To boldly go where no man has gone before.
