{69}{109}Excuse me?
{114}{181}- I asked if you've...|- We heard you.
{212}{350}What makes you think we're suffering|from a lack of sexual activity?
{356}{448}Starfleet forbids officers from|fraternizing with subordinates.
{453}{503}Unless you've been|violating regulations...
{508}{598}Those regulations don't apply to you.|Have...
{615}{686}...you been suffering?
{692}{759}On Vulcan, we mate only once|every seven years.
{774}{812}That's a hell of a dry spell.
{840}{928}Why are you suddenly|so curious about this?
{934}{1019}It's my understanding that your mating|ritual is effective in easing tension.
{1059}{1101}That hasn't always been|my experience.
{1124}{1222}And you think that we need|our tensions eased?
{1228}{1273}Efficiency's down three percent.
{1336}{1432}We've all gone about ten months|without a break.
{1437}{1527}I think it's normal for people|to get a little sloppy.
{1546}{1617}Perhaps it's time the crew|takes shore leave.
{1623}{1657}Well, I like the sound of that.
{1662}{1725}I took the liberty of locating|a suitable planet
{1731}{1838}approximately nine days from our|present location. It's called Risa.
{1844}{1880}What's your idea of suitable?
{1886}{1981}It's tropical, with an abundance|of pristine beaches.
{1986}{2041}You'll find more information|in the Vulcan database.
{2106}{2188}- Is it populated?|- Yes,
{2194}{2298}by a humanoid culture|receptive to easing tension.
{2475}{2603}"It's been a long road|Gettin' from there to here"
{2662}{2744}"It's been a long time"
{2749}{2841}"But my time is finally near"
{2846}{2948}"And I will see my dream|Come alive at last"
{2953}{3023}"I will touch the sky"
{3028}{3119}"And they're not gonna|Hold me down no more"
{3124}{3196}"No, they're not gonna change my mind"
{3201}{3314}"'Cause I've got faith of the heart"
{3319}{3389}"I'm going where my heart will take me"
{3394}{3504}"I've got faith to believe"
{3509}{3571}"I can do anything"
{3576}{3684}"I've got strength of the soul"
{3689}{3758}"And no one's gonna bend or break me"
{3763}{3891}"I can reach any star"
{3900}{3989}"I've got faith"
{3994}{4083}"I've got faith"
{4088}{4203}"Faith of the heart"
{4639}{4696}If you're wearing that to impress|the women on Risa,
{4702}{4748}you may as well stay onboard.
{4753}{4782}Rule number one:
{4787}{4838}You've gotta be seen to get noticed.
{4843}{4907}And I plan on getting noticed.
{4919}{4959}Don't say she didn't warn you.
{4970}{5067}- Figure out your itinerary yet?|- I think I'm gonna pass.
{5072}{5140}Captain, you need this|as much as I do.
{5145}{5195}Nobody needs this|as much as you do.
{5219}{5301}The ship will be nice and quiet.|I've got some astrometric surveys
{5306}{5348}that have been piling up.
{5353}{5392}It'll be a good chance|to get work done.
{5401}{5497}We're going to a planet with over 200|registered Nuvian masseuses,
{5502}{5566}and you're gonna sit in your cabin|with a bunch of star charts?
{5572}{5617}Mr Tucker has a point.
{5658}{5707}You think I need a massage?
{5716}{5811}The safety of this ship depends on|its captain being at his most efficient.
{5918}{6048}I suppose I could read those surveys|on a nice beach.
{6053}{6116}Incoming transmission from|Starfleet Command.
{6152}{6201}Transfer it to my Ready Room.
{6242}{6274}Her name's V'Lar.
{6279}{6354}She's the Vulcan ambassador|to a planet called Mazar.
{6360}{6434}If you don't mind my asking, admiral,|why is this our problem?
{6440}{6511}Apparently, it's imperative|that she be taken of that planet
{6516}{6562}as soon as possible.
{6569}{6641}The nearest Vulcan ship|is at least a week away.
{6657}{6734}Do they expect us to take her|all the way back to Vulcan?
{6756}{6852}You'll rendezvous with the Vulcan ship|Sh'Raan in three days.
{6858}{6901}They'll take her the rest of the way.
{6911}{6953}Any idea what the emergency is?
{6977}{7044}Well, this may come|as a shock to you, Jon,
{7049}{7089}but the Vulcans aren't talking.
{7103}{7144}Imagine that.
{7386}{7431}Thank you for volunteering|your quarters.
{7436}{7512}I'm happy to do it.|I'm looking forward to meeting her.
{7517}{7567}I imagine she'll spend|most of the journey alone,
{7572}{7653}engaged in meditation.|But if it seems appropriate,
{7658}{7720}- I'll ask if she'll meet with you.|- Thanks.
{7725}{7850}- If there's anything else I can do...|- If you wouldn't mind taking that.
{7881}{7985}Ambassador V'Lar is accustomed|to a Spartan environment.
{8270}{8336}Hoshi, thanks for giving up|your cabin.
{8341}{8393}I just hope it's Spartan enough, sir.
{8517}{8567}- Everything set?|- I believe so.
{8572}{8667}I've prepared this to familiarize|the crew with the necessary protocols.
{8672}{8758}We should assign a steward|to attend to her needs.
{8771}{8865}"Don't address the ambassador|unless spoken to first.
{8886}{8942}Don't offer to shake hands.
{8955}{9002}Refrain from laughing|in her presence."
{9007}{9065}Those guidelines|are largely precautionary.
{9071}{9154}I doubt the crew will have much|opportunity to interact with her.
{9167}{9224}You seem to be pulling out|all the stops.
{9229}{9299}I'm simply following the protocols|used in dealing with an ambassador
{9304}{9342}of V'Lar's distinction.
{9369}{9433}Well, she'll be here soon enough.
{9438}{9522}- Let me know if you need any help.|- Thank you, captain.
{9833}{9882}Entering orbit, sir.
{9887}{9924}We're being hailed.
{9929}{9978}It's the Mazarite High Council.
{10002}{10053}Someone's in a hurry.
{10095}{10163}- Captain Archer?|- I'm Jonathan Archer.
{10168}{10220}Are you prepared to receive|Ambassador V'Lar?
{10233}{10289}That's why we're here.
{10301}{10359}If you'll transmit your landing|coordinates to us,
{10364}{10423}we'll send down a shuttlepod.
{10428}{10475}I'm looking forward to the visit.
{10481}{10524}I regret there won't be time for that.
{10529}{10587}The ambassador is already|on her way to your ship.
{10599}{10638}A small craft's approaching, sir.
{10654}{10748}I assume the Vulcans have informed|you of the urgency of this matter.
{10753}{10809}They said it was important that|we pick up the ambassador
{10814}{10858}as quickly as possible.
{10863}{10899}They didn't say why.
{10926}{11068}V'Lar has been expelled for abuse of|her position and criminal misconduct.
{11199}{11281}- Captain Archer?|- Ambassador.
{11286}{11375}On behalf of my crew, I'd like to|welcome you aboard Enterprise.
{11380}{11422}Thank you.
{11590}{11633}May I take that?
{11638}{11703}That's very thoughtful, captain.
{11708}{11762}This is Commander Charles Tucker,|my chief engineer.
{11767}{11863}- Pleased to meet you.|- The pleasure is mine, commander.
{11868}{11935}And this is my science officer,|Sub-commander T'Pol.
{12059}{12178}But please, I've been anticipating|the opportunity to practice my English.
{12260}{12331}I hope you like your quarters,|ambassador.
{12336}{12418}T'Pol tried very hard|to anticipate your needs.
{12434}{12488}Fortunately,|my needs are few, captain.
{12522}{12616}I am curious, though,|who previously occupied the cabin?
{12662}{12702}The odour.
{12707}{12773}The human scent is difficult to mask.
{12778}{12838}Actually, I was hoping|to meet the crew member,
{12844}{12943}in order to thank her for allowing me|to disrupt her routine.
{12948}{13036}I prefer not to inconvenience anyone|if possible.
{13041}{13135}That philosophy has served me well|in the diplomatic service.
{13160}{13225}T'Pol tells me you negotiated|the first territorial accords
{13230}{13285}between Vulcan and Andoria.
{13291}{13447}The Andorians required a somewhat|firmer hand at the negotiating table.
{13452}{13522}But I was younger then.
{13527}{13601}That was before we even made|contact with Earth.
{13607}{13693}That was over 90 years ago.|How long have you been a diplomat?
{13737}{13777}Commander Tucker,
{13782}{13822}I understood that on your world,
{13827}{13912}it is considered bad manners|to ask a lady her age.
{13917}{13951}Well, I wasn't...
{13972}{14047}I didn't mean to imply|that you were...
{14052}{14103}Forgive me, commander.
{14108}{14155}My attempt at humour.
{14223}{14306}Suffice it to say that|with T'Pol and myself here,
{14311}{14440}you're almost certainly dining with|the two oldest people on this ship.
{14559}{14592}I hope, ambassador,
{14597}{14681}that you regard the charges|against you with less levity.
{14701}{14741}Of course I do.
{14747}{14815}How do you intend|to defend yourself?
{14827}{14862}There is no defence.
{14919}{14961}Are you saying you're guilty?
{14967}{15056}- T'Pol.|- It's all right, captain.
{15081}{15185}A person in my position carries|the trust of all Vulcans.
{15196}{15311}The fact that the Mazarites believe|that trust has been compromised
{15316}{15394}justifies T'Pol's concern.
{15559}{15615}I'm afraid my age|is betraying me, captain.
{15620}{15683}Would you mind if I retired?
{15697}{15738}Of course not.
{16023}{16074}I've never been to Earth,
{16079}{16214}but I find the humans I have|encountered quite unpredictable.
{16220}{16305}I'd be interested in hearing|about your experiences there.
{16310}{16355}Another time, perhaps.
{16360}{16412}I understand.
{16417}{16502}This is your cabin. I'll say good night.
{16507}{16552}T'Pol.
{16662}{16705}I sense your anger.
{16726}{16782}You presume that my time|with humans has left me
{16787}{16835}susceptible to their emotions.
{16841}{16912}They're our emotions as well.
{16917}{16965}We simply hide them better.
{16985}{17064}If you're sensing anything from me,|it isn't anger.
{17204}{17248}No.
{17312}{17360}Disappointment.
{17391}{17448}Good night, ambassador.
{17622}{17688}- T'Pol.|- Captain.
{17693}{17755}Is there a problem|I should be aware of?
{17760}{17815}I assume you're talking about|Ambassador V'Lar.
{17820}{17875}You were a bit abrupt with her.
{17890}{17970}If you believe I was rude,|I'll convey my apologies.
{17984}{18087}I don't pretend to understand Vulcans.|I never have.
{18092}{18143}But I wouldn't be a very good captain|if I didn't know
{18148}{18212}when something was bothering|my science officer.
{18233}{18315}It's uncommon for a Vulcan|to commit a crime.
{18320}{18380}Uncommon, but not unheard-of.
{18385}{18498}Unheard-of for a person|in Ambassador V'Lar's position.
{18529}{18585}We don't know what she's done.
{18600}{18643}It doesn't matter.
{18659}{18765}If she were innocent, she would've|insisted on staying to defend herself.
{18770}{18832}You seem to know a lot about her.
{18960}{19071}I've met the ambassador before,|though she clearly doesn't recall.
{19076}{19173}It was many years ago on Vulcan,|during my early schooling.
{19178}{19238}She had just negotiated|the Treaty of Ka'Tann,
{19243}{19304}and I travelled a great distance|to see her.
{19310}{19342}Was it worth the trip?
{19352}{19460}The ambassador inspired me|to choose a direction in my own life,
{19465}{19555}a path that led me to the|Science Council, and eventually here.
{19645}{19705}I've had a few heroes in my life.
{19730}{19797}It's never easy when one of them|lets you down.
{19820}{19872}Vulcans don't have heroes.
{19885}{19962}No, I'm sure they don't.
{20010}{20075}Captain, can you come|to the bridge?
{20138}{20185}On my way.
{20288}{20331}An unidentified vessel, sir.
{20336}{20387}Fifty thousand kilometres|and closing.
{20450}{20521}- They're hailing us.|- Let's find out who they are.
{20572}{20638}- What can we do for you?|- My apologies, captain.
{20643}{20733}There's been a change of plans|regarding Ambassador V'Lar.
{20738}{20789}We weren't told.
{20795}{20869}We've been having some problems|with our long-range communications.
{20880}{20914}What's the change of plans?
{20919}{21018}The magistrate feels that we let|the ambassador go too quickly.
{21023}{21068}She's needed for|additional questioning.
{21120}{21177}We don't wanna cause you|any more inconvenience.
{21183}{21247}If you'll drop out of warp,|we can dock with you
{21252}{21299}and take the ambassador|aboard our ship.
{21305}{21420}Your magistrate seemed|in a big hurry to get rid of her.
{21425}{21459}Now he wants her back?
{21494}{21534}I'm just a transport captain.
{21539}{21634}I never try to make sense of what|government bureaucrats are thinking.
{21639}{21689}I'll have to contact my superiors.
{21707}{21738}There's really no need.
{21756}{21807}I'm just a starship captain.
{21813}{21895}You don't think they'd trust me to make|these kinds of decisions on my own.
{21953}{22034}We'll wait for you to confirm|whatever you have to.
{22085}{22136}Get me Starfleet Command.
{22178}{22217}I can't get through.
{22223}{22287}That ship's jamming|all our com frequencies.
{22292}{22345}"Just a transport captain."
{22350}{22416}- They're charging weapons.|- Polarize the hull plating.
{22675}{22728}What the hell is he doing? Hail him!
{22734}{22771}He's not answering.
{22815}{22918}- Port hull plating's off-line.|- They're closing fast.
{22943}{22995}Aft torpedoes. Return fire.
{23092}{23158}No effect. They're using|some kind of energy shielding.
{23206}{23318}Direct hit to Engineering,|subsection 12. We've taken damage.
{23385}{23434}Would the phase cannons|be more effective?
{23439}{23485}Undoubtedly.|But we can't fire them at warp.
{23490}{23559}- What do you mean?|- Particle discharge, sir.
{23564}{23639}It would destabilize our warp field|and most likely blow out both nacelles.
{23645}{23702}I've been working on the problem,|but I haven't quite...
{23751}{23794}Drop to impulse.
{23802}{23856}Deploy the aft cannon.
{23997}{24055}- I've got a lock.|- Fire.
{24181}{24213}Their shields are failing.
{24219}{24264}See what you can do|about their engines.
{24351}{24386}They're dead in the water, sir.
{24447}{24476}Not dead enough.
{24484}{24538}- Resume course. Warp 4.|- Aye, sir.
{24585}{24638}Any idea what that was all about?
{24697}{24743}Well, I think we know someone|who might.
{24840}{24900}We were asked to pick you up|and deliver you to a Vulcan ship.
{24905}{24978}No one said anything|about getting shot at.
{25004}{25043}You have no idea who they were?
{25049}{25124}Obviously they weren't sent|by the council on Mazar.
{25130}{25179}Then who sent them?
{25220}{25276}I have no answers for you.
{25394}{25506}Ambassador, we're here at the request|of the Vulcan High Command.
{25511}{25597}It would be illogical for you|to withhold information from us.
{25602}{25701}There are diplomatic matters at stake|here which do not concern you.
{25710}{25810}To tell you any more would only put|your ship and your crew at greater risk.
{25816}{25856}How much greater could it get?
{25861}{25925}A few more volleys from that ship|would've ruptured our hull.
{25970}{26020}I'm sorry, captain.
{26026}{26067}So am I.
{26148}{26201}You're leaving me no choice,|ambassador.
{26215}{26272}- Archer to Mayweather.|- Go ahead.
{26277}{26365}Change of plans, Travis.|Lay in a course back to Mazar.
{26371}{26409}Sir?
{26415}{26482}- You heard me.|- Aye, sir.
{26505}{26585}You're under strict orders|to transport me to the Sh'Raan.
{26599}{26644}It's more than two days|to the rendezvous point,
{26649}{26711}and there could be other|hostile ships tracking us.
{26716}{26840}Unless you can convince me|why it's worth risking all our lives...
{27276}{27330}The Vulcans are raising|holy hell about this, Jon.
{27336}{27393}You can always order me|to take her to the rendezvous point.
{27398}{27476}You're out there, I'm not.|It's your call.
{27486}{27541}I just want you to know|there'll be repercussions.
{27547}{27601}They certainly considered|the repercussions.
{27606}{27639}They knew someone was after her.
{27644}{27704}Why risk one of your own ships|when you can risk one of ours?
{27709}{27757}- Jon.|- They're doing it to us again, admiral.
{27763}{27828}- Keeping us in the dark.|- Have you talked to the ambassador?
{27860}{27950}- I've tried.|- Maybe she brought this on herself.
{27955}{28026}You did say that she admitted|the charges against her were true.
{28032}{28100}I don't even know what|the charges against her are.
{28106}{28171}Well, I'll talk to Soval,
{28177}{28220}see what I can find out.
{28238}{28323}- You really enjoy this, don't you?|- Replacing power couplings? Hardly.
{28328}{28380}No. I mean, having people|shoot at us.
{28385}{28454}If you must know,|I much prefer the shooting back part.
{28459}{28515}I thought this mission was about|peaceful exploration.
{28520}{28567}I need something to do on this ship,|commander.
{28572}{28660}Fair enough. I'm just hoping|we don't keep you quite so busy.
{28665}{28763}I read those Nuvian masseuses|have 12 fingers...
{28784}{28828}...on each hand.
{28833}{28934}Then I'd say Starfleet needs to make|its presence known on Risa.
{29192}{29279}- I hope I'm not interrupting.|- Not at all.
{29284}{29324}We were just talking about|my quarters.
{29337}{29412}I was wondering why they were|so sparsely decorated.
{29439}{29494}If you need anything,|it can be brought to you.
{29500}{29552}Oh, I don't want to be waited on.
{29557}{29624}And since I doubt I'll be travelling|to Earth any time soon,
{29629}{29704}I decided to spend a little time|with my hosts.
{29709}{29752}Thank you for the use|of your quarters.
{29757}{29804}You'll have them back soon enough.
{29857}{29901}Sub-commander.
{29957}{29996}Have you tried iced tea?
{30010}{30044}I don't care for it.
{30050}{30143}Captain Archer certainly does.|It's flavoured with passion fruit,
{30148}{30212}an appropriate ingredient for him,|don't you think?
{30232}{30294}It was the captain that I wanted|to speak to you about.
{30306}{30362}He's a most intriguing man.
{30368}{30415}He deserves to be told the truth.
{30495}{30541}Will you join me?
{30562}{30596}Please.
{30601}{30710}We'll be back at Mazar in a few hours.|I'd prefer not to waste that time alone.
{30784}{30841}This must be awkward for you,
{30847}{30893}having a foot in two worlds,
{30898}{30959}loyal to your captain,|yet still a Vulcan.
{30977}{31026}You can make things easier for him.
{31041}{31104}The High Command has requested|his assistance.
{31110}{31165}It doesn't seem unreasonable|to ask why.
{31198}{31268}You believe Captain Archer|can be trusted?
{31274}{31300}Yes.
{31326}{31374}Even though he clearly|doesn't trust us?
{31387}{31444}He's resentful.
{31458}{31486}Why?
{31496}{31594}He believes we held back their|development of warp technology.
{31626}{31712}We've kept many things from them,|all for good reason.
{31718}{31820}But situations like this|only reinforce their resentment.
{31836}{31927}If we expect to continue our relations|with humanity,
{31932}{31976}we have to earn their trust.
{31992}{32078}I would not have succeeded|at my career for 94 years
{32083}{32131}without earning people's trust.
{32141}{32186}I meant no insult.
{32214}{32256}Of course not.
{32261}{32321}You were simply speaking your mind,
{32341}{32385}as you always have.
{32413}{32479}It was at Vulcana Regar, wasn't it?
{32484}{32531}During the second Ka'Tann|conference,
{32536}{32594}you approached me during a recess.
{32630}{32726}- You remember.|- You were not easy to forget.
{32731}{32791}Your questions about|my negotiating tactics
{32796}{32867}were quite presumptuous|coming from one so young.
{32873}{32951}I apologize if I acted inappropriately.
{32957}{33000}Not at all.
{33009}{33158}In fact, your bluntness made me|reconsider some of my positions.
{33190}{33247}Much as it has now.
{33314}{33352}T'Pol,
{33357}{33399}I have something to tell you.
{33562}{33602}Come in.
{33695}{33743}Something wrong?
{33796}{33886}I took the liberty of speaking|with Ambassador V'Lar.
{33905}{33943}Go on.
{33974}{34016}Any luck?
{34039}{34123}The ambassador and I spent|the last two hours talking.
{34134}{34236}She's even more remarkable|than her reputation suggests.
{34266}{34315}I don't doubt that,
{34331}{34420}- but it doesn't affect my decision.|- I believe it should.
{34429}{34494}She's not guilty of the crime|she's been accused of.
{34535}{34565}She told you that?
{34570}{34631}The charges were fabricated|to get her off Mazar
{34636}{34684}and divert attention|from her actual mission.
{34689}{34761}- Which is?|- She can't reveal that.
{34796}{34888}But she's convinced me that|it's critical we help her accomplish it.
{34939}{34995}I'm sorry, T'Pol,
{35000}{35070}but I'm gonna need more than that.
{35095}{35191}She also told me that|if we return her to Mazar,
{35196}{35227}she'll be killed.
{35284}{35347}- By who?|- She wouldn't tell me.
{35353}{35391}- But you believed her?|- Yes.
{35396}{35427}Why?
{35471}{35582}I can't accept that she'd sacrifice|a lifetime of accomplishments
{35587}{35653}with an act of criminal misconduct.
{35669}{35750}- It happens all the time.|- Not to her.
{35756}{35806}We must take her to the Sh'Raan.
{35839}{35937}You're asking me to put the lives|of everyone onboard in jeopardy
{35942}{36037}based on your talking to this woman|for a couple of hours.
{36228}{36258}Captain...
{36320}{36434}...since I've served aboard Enterprise,|I've never asked you for anything.
{36469}{36518}I'm asking for this now:
{36523}{36596}Don't return the ambassador|to Mazar.
{36629}{36667}Please.
{36873}{36915}Thank you.
{37462}{37538}Our Mazarite friends, sir.|And they've brought company.
{37543}{37578}Why didn't we see them coming?
{37583}{37653}Our aft sensors are still|out of alignment.
{37663}{37698}They're targeting our engines.
{37703}{37754}We could drop to impulse,|use the phase cannons.
{37759}{37814}And go three against one?
{37841}{37886}You're familiar with the Mazarites.
{37891}{37942}- What's their top speed?|- Comparable to Starfleet.
{37947}{38025}I don't believe|they've exceeded warp 5.
{38030}{38078}Then let's give them|a run for their money.
{38083}{38202}- Travis, increase speed to warp 4.8.|- Aye, sir.
{38304}{38367}Warp 4.8.
{38373}{38470}They're matching our speed|and accelerating. Warp 4.9.
{38476}{38572}They're closing to 20,000 kilometres.|Fifteen.
{38623}{38664}Travis?
{38669}{38727}Warp 4.9.
{38929}{38981}They're holding at 4.9, sir.
{38987}{39039}How far to the rendezvous point?
{39044}{39104}At this speed, a little over two hours.
{39109}{39182}But I don't think we can hold it|that long.
{39205}{39251}Can we get a message|through to the Vulcans?
{39257}{39326}- The Mazarites are still jamming us.|- Keep trying.
{39372}{39441}That Vulcan ship better not be late.
{39460}{39496}Captain?
{39527}{39559}What's our situation?
{39655}{39718}We're being chased|by three Mazarite ships.
{39746}{39828}Will we reach the Sh'Raan before|they can do any more damage?
{39915}{39958}I'm not sure.
{40095}{40162}In that case,|I need to speak with you.
{40348}{40426}I have to consider the possibility|that this mission will fail.
{40432}{40505}You still haven't told me|what this mission is.
{40511}{40587}I've been under orders to tell you|only what you need to know.
{40593}{40663}But that wasn't the only reason|I kept things from you.
{40692}{40725}I didn't trust you.
{40762}{40871}As your Mr Tucker pointed out,|I have been around a long time.
{40876}{40971}I remember when news of your people|first reached Vulcan.
{40976}{41059}I was fascinated by humanity,
{41064}{41099}but worried as well.
{41119}{41148}You hadn't even met us.
{41153}{41229}You had just emerged|from a global war.
{41234}{41284}The idea that you|deemed yourselves
{41289}{41375}ready to join the|interstellar community seemed...
{41380}{41410}...premature.
{41425}{41525}And a century of good behaviour|hasn't changed your mind?
{41769}{41827}The Mazarites pursuing us|are criminals.
{41853}{41898}They are members|of an organization
{41903}{41956}that's infiltrated all levels|of government,
{41962}{42030}making themselves wealthy|and powerful,
{42035}{42132}at the expense of many|innocent victims.
{42172}{42322}Their methods include eliminating|anyone who stands in their way.
{42334}{42371}And that would include you?
{42407}{42519}Many Mazarites want their government|purged of this corruption.
{42524}{42629}They asked the Vulcan consulate|to help them expose these criminals.
{42635}{42699}And that job fell to you?
{42712}{42795}I have been gathering|evidence against them.
{42800}{42865}In three months,|I will be called to testify.
{42883}{42982}It was decided that, until then,|I would be safer on Vulcan.
{42987}{43028}Why couldn't you tell us?
{43045}{43127}The investigation was considered|too sensitive.
{43133}{43201}And the story of you being recalled|in disgrace...
{43206}{43338}It was hoped that if my reputation|were sullied,
{43343}{43397}they would not consider me|a credible witness,
{43403}{43466}and they might not come after me.
{43471}{43517}Obviously, it didn't work.
{43543}{43598}The corruption ran deeper|than I thought.
{43669}{43711}I appreciate...
{43742}{43785}...you telling me the truth.
{43829}{43938}I can no longer put you and your crew|in danger, captain.
{43943}{43987}Please drop out of warp.
{44193}{44250}It hasn't gotten to that yet.
{44353}{44428}It's the most logical course of action.
{44469}{44532}If you've learned anything|about humans, you'd know...
{44557}{44663}...we don't always take|the most logical course of action.
{44668}{44747}Captain, report to the bridge.
{44827}{44874}- They're hailing us.|- What's our status?
{44879}{44950}Holding at warp 4.9, but|Commander Tucker doesn't believe
{44955}{45030}we can sustain it for more|than another ten minutes.
{45035}{45078}I don't believe they can either, sir.
{45084}{45178}They're releasing drive plasma to keep|their warp coils from overloading.
{45189}{45230}Open a channel.
{45256}{45319}Captain. Ambassador.
{45348}{45417}- What do you want?|- Just giving you a friendly warning.
{45422}{45483}Are you aware that your engines|are overheating?
{45493}{45526}So are yours.
{45564}{45618}We have no quarrel with you.
{45623}{45667}Give us the Vulcan|and you'll be free to go.
{45698}{45751}I have a better idea.
{45771}{45833}Why don't you slow down|before your engines explode.
{45910}{45998}Why would you risk the lives|of your crew for this criminal?
{46010}{46103}I've been ordered to deliver her safely|to the Vulcans.
{46108}{46170}And that's exactly what I plan to do.
{46289}{46332}They're increasing speed.
{46337}{46379}Warp 4.95.
{46385}{46425}They're re-entering|weapons range, sir.
{46491}{46520}Archer to Engineering.
{46526}{46580}Please tell me you're ready|to slow down.
{46585}{46639}Sorry, Trip, but we need|a little more speed.
{46644}{46686}I don't know how much more|I can give you.
{46697}{46776}- It's called a Warp 5 engine.|- On paper.
{46832}{46876}We don't have any choice, Trip.
{46916}{46943}Aye, sir.
{46997}{47037}Ambassador.
{47259}{47300}Warp 5.
{47393}{47435}Four-point-nine-three.
{47491}{47533}Nine-five.
{47660}{47707}Don't take your eyes off|that antimatter stream.
{47712}{47749}Yes, sir.
{47970}{48011}Four-point-nine-seven.
{48068}{48119}They're matching our speed.
{48210}{48255}Four-point-nine-nine.
{48314}{48370}Warp 5.
{48623}{48659}They're still gaining on us.
{48922}{48979}How far to the Vulcan ship?
{48984}{49062}Their jamming signal is disrupting|our sensors as well.
{49067}{49147}Then use their last known position|and do the math.
{49162}{49206}Take a guess.
{49237}{49290}If we could maintain|our present speed,
{49295}{49342}approximately 53 minutes.
{49347}{49423}The Mazarites will be in|firing range long before then.
{49447}{49524}What if we could get|a message through?
{49529}{49584}Tell them to get here|as fast as they can.
{49589}{49647}The Sh'Raan is capable of warp 7.
{49652}{49724}If we could maintain warp 5,
{49729}{49779}we'd reach them in 12 minutes.
{49794}{49828}Hoshi.
{49833}{49888}Any way you can get a message|through the interference?
{49893}{49940}I don't see how, sir.
{49967}{50025}There's a diplomatic frequency|we sometimes use.
{50030}{50130}It's in a lower subspace band.|I doubt the Mazarites are aware of it.
{50135}{50219}It's been a few years|since I did this.
{50233}{50296}If we do get a message through|to the Vulcans,
{50301}{50364}we don't want the Mazarites|to see them coming.
{50369}{50423}We could try deflecting|their jamming signal, sir.
{50428}{50493}Use it to blind their sensors as well.
{50498}{50539}- See what you can do.|- Aye, sir.
{50606}{50650}Hoshi?
{50655}{50749}We may have gotten a message|through to them, sir, but I'm not sure.
{50754}{50810}Wouldn't they respond?
{51007}{51036}Tucker to the bridge!
{51046}{51097}- Go ahead.|- The port injectors just blew!
{51103}{51183}- We've gotta slow down, captain!|- I got it! I got it!
{51207}{51269}- Hoshi?|- The com just went down, sir.
{51275}{51315}They're right on top of us.
{51323}{51389}- How long?|- Eight minutes.
{51586}{51632}That's a direct hit|to our starboard nacelle.
{51637}{51689}We're dropping to impulse.
{51937}{51978}They're hailing us.
{52067}{52105}How long now?
{52120}{52170}If they received our message,
{52175}{52233}- another ten minutes.|- I thought it was down to eight.
{52238}{52288}That was before we dropped out|of warp.
{52293}{52345}We can't hold off their ships|for that long.
{52378}{52445}You've done your best, captain,|and I thank you for it.
{52465}{52550}But it's time for me|to turn myself over to them.
{52565}{52627}We just need to buy|ten more minutes.
{52632}{52696}- Captain...|- I want you to go to Sickbay.
{52726}{52783}- Sickbay?|- I'll explain later.
{52788}{52898}If there was ever a time|to start trusting us, this would be it.
{53218}{53247}Put him through.
{53276}{53311}Give us the Vulcan.
{53316}{53427}You know, I honestly didn't think|you'd be able to catch us.
{53446}{53496}Just out of curiosity,
{53501}{53537}how fast do your ships go?
{53543}{53624}Put her on a shuttle|and bring her to our lead vessel.
{53641}{53672}That could be a problem.
{53681}{53731}Our shuttlebay was damaged,|thanks to you.
{53736}{53807}I doubt we could launch a shuttlepod|until it's repaired.
{53812}{53848}What...?
{53879}{53948}What would you have topped out at?|Warp 5.5?
{53959}{54031}Warp 6? I can't imagine you could do|much more than that.
{54036}{54088}Your engines were starting|to run pretty hot.
{54094}{54121}Prepare to be boarded.
{54156}{54210}Malcolm, I'm counting on you.
{54248}{54286}T'Pol.
{54575}{54609}Okay.
{54706}{54748}Where is she?
{54760}{54840}Your last attack blew out systems|across half the ship.
{54845}{54941}Power's down in Engineering,|a plasma conduit exploded on E Deck.
{54946}{55035}I didn't ask for a damage report.|Where is she?
{55040}{55085}I was getting to that.
{55090}{55152}Her quarters are on E Deck.
{55157}{55242}She was no more than ten metres|away when the conduit blew.
{55247}{55290}Her injuries are extensive.
{55295}{55384}Plasma burns, neurological trauma.
{55423}{55464}I wanna see her.
{55589}{55641}This is Dr Phlox.
{55675}{55770}- The Vulcan?|- Undergoing dermal regeneration.
{55804}{55841}Open it.
{55856}{55890}I will not.
{55906}{55970}I don't know what business you have,|but when she was brought in,
{55975}{56002}she became my patient.
{56007}{56073}If I remove her from the imaging|chamber prematurely, she'll die.
{56221}{56254}Open it.
{56351}{56428}- Yes?|- Our sensors just went down, captain.
{56433}{56482}- What's causing it?|- Enterprise is redirecting
{56488}{56521}our jamming signal.
{56716}{56762}No!
{57514}{57553}Report!
{57580}{57640}Answer me! What's going on?
{57655}{57704}I imagine they have|their hands full right now.
{57807}{57866}I believe that's the Sh'Raan.
{57885}{57949}She's a Vulcan combat cruiser.|One of their most powerful,
{57955}{57998}if I'm not mistaken.
{58011}{58094}Sir, the captain of the Sh'Raan|wants to speak to you.
{58242}{58281}Put it up.
{58303}{58390}Captain Archer,|are you in any danger?
{58448}{58479}You could say that.
{58484}{58549}Tell the Mazarites to turn|their weapons over immediately,
{58554}{58630}or we'll destroy their ships.
{58858}{58918}We'll be standing by, captain.
{58923}{58961}Thank you.
{59042}{59096}We did what we came to do.
{59103}{59149}That's all that matters.
{59217}{59282}I am sorry to disappoint you.
{59369}{59484}I look forward to adding this incident|to my testimony at your trial.
{59923}{60029}Captain's starlog,|February 9th, 2152.
{60034}{60114}The Vulcans have allowed|the Mazarites to leave.
{60119}{60201}Ambassador V'Lar says there's|a good reason for doing so,
{60206}{60287}though she's certainly not|sharing it with me.
{60446}{60549}Someday I'd like to walk into a room|without it seeming like a state visit.
{60554}{60586}Occupational hazard?
{60637}{60691}I'll be along in a moment.
{60747}{60778}Thank you, captain.
{60803}{60876}I'm sorry for the trouble|I've caused you and your crew.
{60893}{60932}We're glad we could help.
{60999}{61077}I sense a great bond between you,
{61082}{61171}a bond of trust and respect.
{61176}{61221}But also...
{61238}{61296}...a bond of friendship.
{61344}{61455}I think it bodes well for the future|relations of our two peoples.
{61611}{61641}Goodbye, ambassador.
{61815}{61889}Live long... and prosper.
