2
00:00:09,535 --> 00:00:12,055
Previously on "Star Trek: Picard"...

3
00:00:12,099 --> 00:00:13,796
I don't totally get it.

4
00:00:13,839 --> 00:00:16,494
But I do know something
really bad happened to you.

5
00:00:16,538 --> 00:00:18,409
You don't have a mom and a dad.

6
00:00:18,453 --> 00:00:19,932
You have Captain Picard.

7
00:00:19,976 --> 00:00:21,847
- I don't have Picard.
- But you could.

8
00:00:21,891 --> 00:00:23,588
And he could have you.

9
00:00:23,592 --> 00:00:24,992
And you could both have each other.

10
00:00:24,993 --> 00:00:26,461
I already had one

11
00:00:26,504 --> 00:00:28,115
grand, heroic captain in my life.

12
00:00:28,158 --> 00:00:30,421
The last thing I need is another one.

13
00:00:30,465 --> 00:00:32,945
Ten years on, I still can't
close my eyes at night

14
00:00:32,989 --> 00:00:35,861
without seeing the last
one's blood and brains

15
00:00:35,905 --> 00:00:38,081
splattered all over a bulkhead.

16
00:00:40,736 --> 00:00:43,695
We are gonna take this cube
away from them forever.

17
00:00:43,739 --> 00:00:46,220
That sounds like a
treaty violation to me.

18
00:00:48,483 --> 00:00:50,267
Activate the Queencell...

19
00:00:50,311 --> 00:00:54,097
In case you ever need a vigilante...

20
00:00:54,141 --> 00:00:56,708
What is the nature of
your medical emergency?

21
00:00:56,752 --> 00:00:58,145
Deactivate EMH.

22
00:01:01,235 --> 00:01:02,845
I wish I didn't know what I know.

23
00:01:02,888 --> 00:01:04,716
I wish they hadn't shown me.

24
00:01:06,457 --> 00:01:08,372
Narek, the Tal Shiar agent,

25
00:01:08,416 --> 00:01:11,375
was looking for an implanted
memory of a real place.

26
00:01:11,419 --> 00:01:14,117
And when I told him about
the lightning and the moons,

27
00:01:14,161 --> 00:01:16,728
- he said, "You found home".
- I want

28
00:01:16,772 --> 00:01:19,601
to help you to get back to that home.

29
00:01:20,515 --> 00:01:22,604
Somebody's tailing us.

30
00:01:22,647 --> 00:01:24,693
Must be since we left the cube.

31
00:01:45,061 --> 00:01:49,239
Our foremothers came to this system

32
00:01:49,283 --> 00:01:51,328
looking for an answer

33
00:01:51,372 --> 00:01:55,071
to the riddle of the Eightfold stars.

34
00:01:56,290 --> 00:01:58,988
What they found was a storehouse

35
00:01:59,031 --> 00:02:04,124
of preserved memories that
showed them the grim fate

36
00:02:04,167 --> 00:02:09,259
of the civilization that
perished here long ago.

37
00:02:09,303 --> 00:02:12,784
We still do not know the
name of the mighty race

38
00:02:12,828 --> 00:02:17,615
who left behind this
object, this Admonition,

39
00:02:17,659 --> 00:02:21,246
warning us of the
horror and annihilation

40
00:02:21,290 --> 00:02:23,731
that came from the skies.

41
00:02:23,774 --> 00:02:27,648
When our foremothers first
endured the Admonition,

42
00:02:27,691 --> 00:02:30,907
we, the Zhat Vash, were born.

43
00:02:31,956 --> 00:02:33,915
For hundreds of years since,

44
00:02:33,958 --> 00:02:35,881
we have worked in shadow

45
00:02:35,925 --> 00:02:39,398
to prevent a second coming

46
00:02:39,442 --> 00:02:42,314
of the Destroyers.

47
00:02:43,358 --> 00:02:45,927
It is this dreaded work

48
00:02:45,970 --> 00:02:50,148
that you must now carry on.

49
00:02:50,692 --> 00:02:55,000
What you are about to experience
will drive some of you mad.

50
00:02:55,444 --> 00:02:59,056
But those of you who endure

51
00:02:59,100 --> 00:03:01,920
will be stronger.

52
00:03:02,839 --> 00:03:06,060
Witness the devastation
that must be prevented.

53
00:03:07,683 --> 00:03:10,120
Endure the Admonition...

54
00:03:12,627 --> 00:03:14,716
...if you can.

55
00:03:46,443 --> 00:03:47,705
No more...

56
00:04:16,473 --> 00:04:18,562
We have to stop them.

57
00:04:18,606 --> 00:04:20,999
We will.

58
00:04:22,479 --> 00:04:23,872
How?

59
00:04:25,787 --> 00:04:27,397
Where do we begin?

60
00:04:27,441 --> 00:04:32,402
On the world the humans call Mars.

61
00:04:36,276 --> 00:04:37,538
Auntie?

62
00:04:37,581 --> 00:04:38,974
Auntie.

63
00:04:41,106 --> 00:04:43,457
No...

64
00:04:49,550 --> 00:04:51,552
We have our work to do.

65
00:05:05,479 --> 00:05:10,092
Dr. Kabath says there's no
medical reason for this, Auntie.

66
00:05:10,135 --> 00:05:13,487
I do believe you're malingering.

67
00:05:15,097 --> 00:05:20,189
You were never entirely sane
to begin with, were you?

68
00:05:21,016 --> 00:05:23,105
It was folly,

69
00:05:23,148 --> 00:05:26,238
taking in Narek and me
after our parents died.

70
00:05:27,082 --> 00:05:32,332
And sheer madness, submitting
yourself for Admonishment.

71
00:05:35,117 --> 00:05:36,379
Though when you lost your mind,

72
00:05:36,423 --> 00:05:40,165
you certainly did it with panache.

73
00:05:43,430 --> 00:05:45,345
Breaking a Borg cube

74
00:05:45,388 --> 00:05:50,001
by the sheer force of your despair?

75
00:05:50,045 --> 00:05:52,830
The Collective picked
the wrong Tal Shiar ship

76
00:05:52,874 --> 00:05:55,920
to assimilate that day.

77
00:05:58,793 --> 00:06:01,186
They ought to have picked mine.

78
00:06:01,230 --> 00:06:04,189
I'd have made a much
better Borg than you.

79
00:06:04,233 --> 00:06:08,933
"Resistance is futile".

80
00:06:15,157 --> 00:06:19,204
Narek's located the synthetics' nest.

81
00:06:19,248 --> 00:06:22,512
I've dispatched ships.

82
00:06:22,556 --> 00:06:24,862
I'll be joining them as
soon as I've shut down

83
00:06:24,906 --> 00:06:27,299
this house of horrors.

84
00:06:30,215 --> 00:06:35,612
If you wake up, you can come along.

85
00:06:41,488 --> 00:06:43,490
We have our work to do.

86
00:07:03,292 --> 00:07:05,773
Tell me you found the freak.

87
00:07:05,816 --> 00:07:07,427
Yes, Colonel.

88
00:07:07,470 --> 00:07:09,470
We tracked him to the office
of the former director

89
00:07:09,471 --> 00:07:10,821
of the Reclamation Project.

90
00:07:56,693 --> 00:07:58,434
Where's Hugh?

91
00:07:59,653 --> 00:08:02,046
What is happening on this cube?

92
00:08:06,050 --> 00:08:08,705
All right. I'm here.

93
00:08:08,749 --> 00:08:10,751
It's-it's all right.

94
00:09:52,187 --> 00:09:53,762
Rios?

95
00:09:56,857 --> 00:09:58,437
Rios?

96
00:10:01,963 --> 00:10:04,574
Rios, this is Dr. Asha.

97
00:10:06,171 --> 00:10:09,348
I need a secure subspace link...

98
00:10:13,264 --> 00:10:14,614
Rios?

99
00:10:16,311 --> 00:10:17,442
Hey!

100
00:10:17,486 --> 00:10:18,922
Rios!

101
00:10:18,966 --> 00:10:20,332
What?

102
00:10:20,376 --> 00:10:24,536
I need a secure subspace
link to Starfleet Command.

103
00:10:24,580 --> 00:10:25,886
- What?
- What?

104
00:10:25,929 --> 00:10:28,236
And what's the nearest starbase?

105
00:10:29,459 --> 00:10:31,418
Uh, Deep Space 12?

106
00:10:31,461 --> 00:10:33,363
Lay in a course.

107
00:10:36,287 --> 00:10:39,029
Hey. Lay in a course.

108
00:10:40,879 --> 00:10:43,665
I will lay in a course for DS12.

109
00:10:43,708 --> 00:10:45,797
But after that, you're
on your own, Picard.

110
00:10:46,041 --> 00:10:48,017
I'm done.

111
00:10:48,060 --> 00:10:49,932
You said you'd take me home.

112
00:10:49,975 --> 00:10:51,890
Yes, and I will.

113
00:10:51,934 --> 00:10:55,242
But we face a powerful enemy.

114
00:10:55,285 --> 00:10:57,505
We can't do it without support.

115
00:10:57,548 --> 00:10:59,246
Look,

116
00:10:59,289 --> 00:11:01,639
you have no choice but to trust me.

117
00:11:01,683 --> 00:11:05,904
And I know, that would
make me angry, too, but...

118
00:11:05,948 --> 00:11:07,863
I understand.

119
00:11:07,906 --> 00:11:10,257
Let me find you a cabin.

120
00:11:12,084 --> 00:11:13,651
U-Uh, hi.

121
00:11:13,695 --> 00:11:15,000
Raffi.

122
00:11:15,044 --> 00:11:16,219
Soji.

123
00:11:16,263 --> 00:11:17,481
Soji,

124
00:11:17,525 --> 00:11:19,245
I'm sorry, but your new
best friend Jean-Luc

125
00:11:19,246 --> 00:11:22,486
already brought us one adorable
little homicidal double agent.

126
00:11:22,490 --> 00:11:23,930
What the hell are you talking about?

127
00:11:23,931 --> 00:11:26,229
I'm talking about how
big a fool you really are.

128
00:11:26,273 --> 00:11:27,535
Yeah... Come.

129
00:11:27,578 --> 00:11:29,276
I'm sorry about her rudeness.

130
00:11:30,886 --> 00:11:32,148
Raffi!

131
00:11:32,192 --> 00:11:33,280
A neuron.

132
00:11:33,323 --> 00:11:34,803
That's all you know about her.

133
00:11:34,846 --> 00:11:37,849
You built this whole giant
fantasy of-of rescue

134
00:11:37,893 --> 00:11:39,460
and sacrifice and redemption

135
00:11:39,503 --> 00:11:41,462
out of one pissant little neuron.

136
00:11:41,505 --> 00:11:44,943
Now you put that away or
be prepared to use it on me.

137
00:11:46,728 --> 00:11:50,166
Agnes Jurati had a
tracking isotope in her blood.

138
00:11:50,210 --> 00:11:51,602
She's a Romulan spy.

139
00:11:51,646 --> 00:11:53,430
Fact or theory?

140
00:11:54,301 --> 00:11:55,650
Theory.

141
00:11:55,693 --> 00:11:57,217
Come.

142
00:11:57,260 --> 00:11:59,915
We think she killed Bruce Maddox.

143
00:12:04,049 --> 00:12:07,096
Who is "we"?

144
00:12:07,139 --> 00:12:10,142
She injected herself with
a hydrogen compound.

145
00:12:10,186 --> 00:12:12,493
She was trying to destabilize
the viridium tracker

146
00:12:12,536 --> 00:12:14,321
already present in her system.

147
00:12:14,364 --> 00:12:17,802
And as soon as she did,
we shook our Tal Shiar tail.

148
00:12:17,846 --> 00:12:19,674
Fact, not theory.

149
00:12:19,717 --> 00:12:23,982
But t-to say that she's
a Tal Shiar agent?

150
00:12:24,026 --> 00:12:26,507
Maybe she didn't know about
the viridium until you picked up

151
00:12:26,550 --> 00:12:28,378
- the tail.
- Maybe.

152
00:12:28,422 --> 00:12:32,817
Or maybe they put her on
this ship to kill Bruce Maddox.

153
00:12:33,361 --> 00:12:36,168
Right after they got
done killing Soji's sister.

154
00:12:36,212 --> 00:12:37,474
Tell me about Maddox.

155
00:12:37,518 --> 00:12:39,038
His injuries need not have been fatal.

156
00:12:39,041 --> 00:12:40,129
She deactivated me.

157
00:12:40,172 --> 00:12:41,696
- Mm-hmm.
- Then,

158
00:12:41,739 --> 00:12:43,524
she turned off the
hematic microrepair unit

159
00:12:43,567 --> 00:12:46,353
that was stabilizing his
cardiovascular function.

160
00:12:46,396 --> 00:12:48,006
She was in distress.

161
00:12:48,050 --> 00:12:51,445
I-I told you it was
careless to bring her along.

162
00:12:51,488 --> 00:12:53,168
Now you're telling us
that we need to trust

163
00:12:53,169 --> 00:12:54,830
the synth girl, too?

164
00:12:54,874 --> 00:12:56,832
Tell me, JL.

165
00:12:56,876 --> 00:12:58,930
What is Soji really like?

166
00:12:58,974 --> 00:13:00,628
Hmm?

167
00:13:00,671 --> 00:13:02,499
Do you know?

168
00:13:04,327 --> 00:13:05,676
Does she?

169
00:13:08,462 --> 00:13:11,508
Yeah, that's what I thought.

170
00:13:12,379 --> 00:13:13,815
Where are you going, Raffi?

171
00:13:13,858 --> 00:13:16,470
To tell Rios I was right about Jurati.

172
00:13:17,313 --> 00:13:20,343
I'm gonna see if it feels any
better to rub his face in it.

173
00:13:27,350 --> 00:13:29,260
That's a hell of a report.

174
00:13:29,304 --> 00:13:32,046
And you thought I was
a desperate old man.

175
00:13:32,089 --> 00:13:34,915
Quixotic, paranoid, possibly senile.

176
00:13:34,958 --> 00:13:36,651
Let's just leave it at quixotic.

177
00:13:36,694 --> 00:13:40,946
And now the windmills have
turned out to be giants.

178
00:13:40,990 --> 00:13:42,209
You want an apology?

179
00:13:42,252 --> 00:13:43,862
- I want a squadron.
- Jean-Luc?

180
00:13:43,906 --> 00:13:45,516
Clancy! Out there,

181
00:13:45,560 --> 00:13:47,649
in the Vayt System, right now,

182
00:13:47,692 --> 00:13:50,565
beings who have as much
right to life and liberty

183
00:13:50,608 --> 00:13:53,176
as you and I or Commander Data

184
00:13:53,220 --> 00:13:55,178
are being hunted down by an enemy

185
00:13:55,222 --> 00:13:56,745
who seeks to exterminate them.

186
00:13:56,788 --> 00:13:58,747
- Jean-Luc!
- No! Clancy, if you say this

187
00:13:58,790 --> 00:14:01,097
is not a job for Starfleet,
then I'm sorry,

188
00:14:01,141 --> 00:14:02,490
but you are a waste of space!

189
00:14:02,533 --> 00:14:04,100
Admiral Picard, with all due respect,

190
00:14:04,144 --> 00:14:05,145
and at long last,

191
00:14:05,188 --> 00:14:07,234
shut the fuck up.

192
00:14:07,277 --> 00:14:10,454
I'm sending a squadron to
rendezvous with you at DS12.

193
00:14:10,498 --> 00:14:12,891
Now, stay put until they get there.

194
00:14:12,935 --> 00:14:15,503
Clancy out.

195
00:14:16,246 --> 00:14:18,945
Hmm.

196
00:14:18,988 --> 00:14:20,816
You all right, buddy?

197
00:14:20,860 --> 00:14:23,688
You seemed a little, uh,
rattled back there.

198
00:14:23,732 --> 00:14:25,473
Tell me how I can help you.

199
00:14:25,516 --> 00:14:27,649
The Tal Shiar had a tracker

200
00:14:27,692 --> 00:14:29,042
inside your girl Jurati.

201
00:14:29,085 --> 00:14:31,827
And it looks like she
killed Bruce Maddox.

202
00:14:31,871 --> 00:14:34,612
Well, that's bad news.

203
00:14:34,656 --> 00:14:36,440
Uh, yeah.

204
00:14:36,484 --> 00:14:37,803
Unless you like

205
00:14:37,847 --> 00:14:39,422
giant, all-encompassing,

206
00:14:39,466 --> 00:14:40,858
paranoid conspiracy theories.

207
00:14:40,902 --> 00:14:42,730
Then it's, you know, kind of awesome,

208
00:14:42,773 --> 00:14:44,993
you know, in a horrible way.

209
00:14:45,136 --> 00:14:47,574
In bad situations, it's so important

210
00:14:47,617 --> 00:14:49,967
to try and find something positive.

211
00:14:50,011 --> 00:14:51,621
Goddamn it!

212
00:14:51,665 --> 00:14:53,362
Which one are you?

213
00:14:53,405 --> 00:14:55,059
Navigation.

214
00:14:55,103 --> 00:14:57,540
ENH... call me Enoch.

215
00:14:57,584 --> 00:14:59,194
Where is Rios?

216
00:14:59,237 --> 00:15:01,457
After he laid in the course
for Deep Space 12,

217
00:15:01,501 --> 00:15:04,982
he activated us holograms
and went to his quarters.

218
00:15:05,026 --> 00:15:07,245
Did he tell you why he got
so freaked out by that girl?

219
00:15:07,289 --> 00:15:09,552
No, but...

220
00:15:09,556 --> 00:15:10,996
...he said if I kept smiling at him,

221
00:15:10,997 --> 00:15:12,468
he would punch me in the face.

222
00:15:12,512 --> 00:15:14,209
Let me see if I can

223
00:15:14,252 --> 00:15:15,950
identify her for you.

224
00:15:18,169 --> 00:15:19,301
Yes!

225
00:15:19,344 --> 00:15:21,956
Her name is...

226
00:15:21,999 --> 00:15:23,305
Jana.

227
00:15:23,348 --> 00:15:25,394
Hmm, her name is Soji.

228
00:15:25,437 --> 00:15:27,962
Ask me about astronavigation!

229
00:15:31,618 --> 00:15:33,402
This, uh, this caught my eye

230
00:15:33,445 --> 00:15:34,795
while I was surveilling the cube.

231
00:15:34,838 --> 00:15:37,624
All these Romulans sitting
around drawing this,

232
00:15:37,667 --> 00:15:39,582
over and over.

233
00:15:39,626 --> 00:15:42,498
Eight circles, see?

234
00:15:42,542 --> 00:15:43,934
Could those be planets?

235
00:15:43,978 --> 00:15:46,589
Looks an attempt to depict an octonary.

236
00:15:46,633 --> 00:15:48,112
A what, now?

237
00:15:48,156 --> 00:15:51,768
A planetary system with
eight component stars.

238
00:15:51,812 --> 00:15:53,988
This is Nu Scorpii,

239
00:15:54,031 --> 00:15:56,817
a septenary system,
which are extremely rare.

240
00:15:56,860 --> 00:15:59,950
But an octonary? Hmm?

241
00:16:01,256 --> 00:16:02,605
There are accounts of one

242
00:16:02,649 --> 00:16:06,130
in some ancient Romulan
star atlases, but...

243
00:16:06,174 --> 00:16:07,915
they're considered apocryphal.

244
00:16:07,958 --> 00:16:10,918
They don't appear in any
of their modern charts.

245
00:16:10,961 --> 00:16:14,399
The gravitational mechanics
would have to be...

246
00:16:14,443 --> 00:16:17,272
incredibly complex.

247
00:16:19,535 --> 00:16:21,624
All-all-all this time I've been thinking

248
00:16:21,668 --> 00:16:24,845
that the Conclave of
Eight was eight people

249
00:16:24,888 --> 00:16:27,804
who planned the attack on
Mars, but maybe the name

250
00:16:27,848 --> 00:16:31,112
refers to the place where they met.

251
00:16:34,724 --> 00:16:37,988
You are my favorite holo.

252
00:16:40,904 --> 00:16:42,123
Hmm.

253
00:16:43,615 --> 00:16:45,400
Killed by a phaser.

254
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,647
The boy has a confederate.

255
00:16:57,412 --> 00:16:59,936
Fenris Rangers.

256
00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:03,718
And it's not hard to guess which one.

257
00:17:08,402 --> 00:17:09,968
Why didn't you go with them?

258
00:17:10,012 --> 00:17:11,518
Picard released me.

259
00:17:11,561 --> 00:17:13,650
I found a cause even more lost than his.

260
00:17:16,078 --> 00:17:17,759
Is this where the Borg Queen lived?

261
00:17:18,302 --> 00:17:19,996
No.

262
00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,503
But she used to visit sometimes?

263
00:17:22,546 --> 00:17:25,723
I can explain, or I can steal this cube.

264
00:18:01,585 --> 00:18:03,108
What the hell is going on?

265
00:18:03,652 --> 00:18:05,741
The cube, it seems to be...

266
00:18:05,785 --> 00:18:08,048
I would almost say it's regenerating.

267
00:18:08,091 --> 00:18:09,876
We have to get rid of every Borg

268
00:18:09,919 --> 00:18:11,486
still held in stasis immediately.

269
00:18:11,529 --> 00:18:13,270
Can they be gassed?

270
00:18:13,314 --> 00:18:15,055
Electrocuted?

271
00:18:15,098 --> 00:18:16,752
We can blow the seals and jettison them

272
00:18:16,796 --> 00:18:18,362
directly into space.

273
00:18:18,406 --> 00:18:19,755
Oh, I like that.

274
00:18:19,799 --> 00:18:20,843
See to it.

275
00:18:20,887 --> 00:18:22,062
Yes, Colonel.

276
00:18:22,105 --> 00:18:24,978
I'll get started on the xBs.

277
00:18:25,021 --> 00:18:27,110
I'll need this one, too.

278
00:18:27,154 --> 00:18:29,634
Come.

279
00:18:56,013 --> 00:18:57,658
Is it all right?

280
00:18:57,701 --> 00:18:59,355
It's good.

281
00:18:59,399 --> 00:19:01,618
Is there something you'd prefer?

282
00:19:02,663 --> 00:19:05,144
Honestly, I don't know.

283
00:19:09,278 --> 00:19:11,802
You don't know what it's like

284
00:19:11,846 --> 00:19:15,719
to have this vacuum
inside of you, Picard.

285
00:19:15,763 --> 00:19:17,982
To have someone ask if you like eggs,

286
00:19:18,026 --> 00:19:20,768
and have no idea if the answer

287
00:19:20,811 --> 00:19:22,248
is coming from you

288
00:19:22,291 --> 00:19:24,075
or your instruction set.

289
00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:25,599
You're right.

290
00:19:25,642 --> 00:19:29,124
I don't know what that's like.

291
00:19:29,168 --> 00:19:30,995
I can only try

292
00:19:31,039 --> 00:19:34,042
and imagine it.

293
00:19:34,085 --> 00:19:35,609
Your memories,

294
00:19:35,652 --> 00:19:36,958
your history,

295
00:19:37,001 --> 00:19:39,221
to you, feel like

296
00:19:39,265 --> 00:19:41,528
incidents you heard about.

297
00:19:41,571 --> 00:19:44,531
Something that happened to someone else.

298
00:19:44,574 --> 00:19:47,186
Yes.

299
00:19:47,229 --> 00:19:48,883
You feel that you

300
00:19:48,926 --> 00:19:50,711
don't have a past anymore.

301
00:19:50,754 --> 00:19:51,842
Because I don't.

302
00:19:51,886 --> 00:19:53,148
Oh, that's not true.

303
00:19:53,192 --> 00:19:54,932
You have a past.

304
00:19:54,976 --> 00:19:57,152
You have a story...

305
00:19:57,196 --> 00:19:59,850
just waiting to be claimed.

306
00:19:59,894 --> 00:20:02,288
You're talking about Data.

307
00:20:02,331 --> 00:20:05,247
Among other things, yes.

308
00:20:07,031 --> 00:20:08,990
All right.

309
00:20:09,033 --> 00:20:11,949
Tell me about Data.

310
00:20:11,993 --> 00:20:13,951
What was he like?

311
00:20:13,995 --> 00:20:17,955
Well, Data was... brave.

312
00:20:17,999 --> 00:20:20,044
Curious.

313
00:20:20,788 --> 00:20:23,134
Very gentle.

314
00:20:23,178 --> 00:20:25,963
He had a child's wisdom,

315
00:20:26,007 --> 00:20:28,923
unclouded by habit

316
00:20:28,966 --> 00:20:30,359
or bias.

317
00:20:30,403 --> 00:20:32,927
He made us all laugh...

318
00:20:32,970 --> 00:20:36,713
e-except when he was
trying to make us laugh.

319
00:20:38,237 --> 00:20:40,239
And you loved him.

320
00:20:41,631 --> 00:20:43,633
I, uh...

321
00:20:45,809 --> 00:20:47,202
Yes.

322
00:20:47,246 --> 00:20:49,160
In my way.

323
00:20:49,204 --> 00:20:51,685
Did he love you?

324
00:20:53,643 --> 00:20:57,212
Data's capacity for expressing

325
00:20:57,256 --> 00:21:00,911
and processing emotion was limited.

326
00:21:03,087 --> 00:21:06,395
I suppose we had that in common.

327
00:21:12,096 --> 00:21:14,490
If I could see you with his eyes...

328
00:21:14,534 --> 00:21:16,884
with his memories...

329
00:21:16,927 --> 00:21:18,538
what would I see?

330
00:21:18,581 --> 00:21:20,975
How would I know that?

331
00:21:21,018 --> 00:21:22,846
What do you hope I would see?

332
00:21:22,890 --> 00:21:25,327
How do you wish he would remember you?

333
00:21:25,371 --> 00:21:27,895
You mean, if he had survived me,

334
00:21:27,938 --> 00:21:30,811
rather than the other way around.

335
00:21:31,942 --> 00:21:33,683
I hope he would remember

336
00:21:33,727 --> 00:21:37,644
Jean-Luc Picard as someone
who believed in him.

337
00:21:37,687 --> 00:21:40,516
Who believed in his potential.

338
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:43,389
Uh, celebrated his successes.

339
00:21:43,432 --> 00:21:46,479
Counseled him when he fell short.

340
00:21:46,522 --> 00:21:48,132
Helped him if he needed help

341
00:21:48,176 --> 00:21:50,265
and, if he didn't need it...

342
00:21:50,309 --> 00:21:52,311
got out of his way.

343
00:21:53,834 --> 00:21:56,967
Words to that effect.

344
00:22:07,108 --> 00:22:09,371
He loved you.

345
00:22:21,992 --> 00:22:23,951
Chris?

346
00:22:23,994 --> 00:22:25,474
Are you Chris?

347
00:22:25,518 --> 00:22:27,781
No, lassie, I'm the Emergency

348
00:22:27,824 --> 00:22:30,740
Engineering Hologram, but I go by Ian.

349
00:22:30,784 --> 00:22:33,304
First of all, I'm gonna ask you
never to call me "lassie" again.

350
00:22:33,305 --> 00:22:35,092
Duly noted.

351
00:22:35,136 --> 00:22:36,398
Have you seen Rios?

352
00:22:36,442 --> 00:22:37,660
No.

353
00:22:37,704 --> 00:22:40,315
Captain's still hiding out in his cabin.

354
00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:42,448
"Hiding out"?

355
00:22:42,491 --> 00:22:44,101
From what?

356
00:22:44,145 --> 00:22:45,320
From Soji?

357
00:22:45,364 --> 00:22:46,408
I dinna ken for sure,

358
00:22:46,452 --> 00:22:48,279
but I wouldn't be surprised.

359
00:22:48,323 --> 00:22:51,848
Sight of that lassie's bound to
stir up unwelcome memories.

360
00:22:51,892 --> 00:22:53,328
And why is that?

361
00:22:53,372 --> 00:22:55,504
Where does he know her from?

362
00:22:58,420 --> 00:23:00,814
I do not have the faintest notion.

363
00:23:00,857 --> 00:23:04,905
I ken it's true, but I dinna ken why.

364
00:23:04,948 --> 00:23:06,123
Mm.

365
00:23:06,167 --> 00:23:07,864
Lot of that going around.

366
00:23:10,084 --> 00:23:11,520
Engineering, right?

367
00:23:11,564 --> 00:23:13,043
Let me ask you something.

368
00:23:13,087 --> 00:23:15,524
What are the chances that
an octonary star system

369
00:23:15,568 --> 00:23:17,439
would occur naturally?

370
00:23:17,483 --> 00:23:20,007
Close to...

371
00:23:20,050 --> 00:23:21,487
close to nil, I'd say.

372
00:23:21,530 --> 00:23:24,098
Meaning it would have to be built?

373
00:23:24,141 --> 00:23:25,447
You'd have to

374
00:23:25,491 --> 00:23:26,927
capture eight suns,

375
00:23:26,970 --> 00:23:29,625
move them across light-years of space,

376
00:23:29,669 --> 00:23:32,672
and set 'em in motion.

377
00:23:32,715 --> 00:23:35,457
Why... why would you want to do that?

378
00:23:35,501 --> 00:23:37,198
Showing off?

379
00:23:37,241 --> 00:23:39,722
Saying, look what I can do!

380
00:23:41,463 --> 00:23:43,900
Or maybe you had something

381
00:23:43,944 --> 00:23:45,984
really important to say, and
you wanted to make sure

382
00:23:45,989 --> 00:23:48,296
that people were paying attention.

383
00:23:48,339 --> 00:23:50,080
Like...

384
00:23:50,124 --> 00:23:52,622
if you wanted to leave them a warning.

385
00:23:52,666 --> 00:23:53,693
Oh...

386
00:23:53,736 --> 00:23:55,695
I'm getting closer, Ian.

387
00:23:55,738 --> 00:23:58,349
I can, I can feel it.

388
00:23:58,393 --> 00:23:59,568
Aye.

389
00:23:59,612 --> 00:24:02,049
And how's it feel?

390
00:24:02,092 --> 00:24:05,574
Absolutely terrifying.

391
00:24:07,054 --> 00:24:08,838
Burgundy.

392
00:24:11,450 --> 00:24:12,929
Red wine.

393
00:24:12,973 --> 00:24:16,846
What is the nature of your
hospitality emergency?

394
00:24:16,890 --> 00:24:18,805
I-I need a glass of red wine.

395
00:24:18,848 --> 00:24:21,895
You disabled alcohol service
from your quarters two days ago.

396
00:24:21,938 --> 00:24:23,897
Well, reinstate it... override.

397
00:24:23,940 --> 00:24:27,466
Locked yourself out of override and...

398
00:24:27,509 --> 00:24:29,729
out of meta-override.

399
00:24:29,772 --> 00:24:33,080
Then shoot me in the head.

400
00:24:34,473 --> 00:24:36,431
What's with Rios?

401
00:24:36,475 --> 00:24:38,302
Should I be worried about him?

402
00:24:38,346 --> 00:24:40,609
He could use someone to talk to.

403
00:24:40,653 --> 00:24:43,090
Someone who doesn't
look exactly like him,

404
00:24:43,133 --> 00:24:45,092
only better groomed.

405
00:24:45,135 --> 00:24:46,963
How do you know that?

406
00:24:47,007 --> 00:24:49,575
Are you all networked directly to Rios?

407
00:24:49,618 --> 00:24:51,664
When Captain Rios acquired La Sirena,

408
00:24:51,707 --> 00:24:53,796
he selected the self-scan option.

409
00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:55,581
He claims it was an accident,

410
00:24:55,624 --> 00:24:58,148
but he never bothered
to revert it, so...

411
00:24:58,192 --> 00:25:02,544
So you're all Rios, overlaid
on the five basic installs?

412
00:25:02,588 --> 00:25:04,459
Not, not, not precisely.

413
00:25:04,503 --> 00:25:06,287
He went in later and
made some deletions.

414
00:25:06,330 --> 00:25:07,941
Careless ones, I must say.

415
00:25:07,984 --> 00:25:10,857
Ask me the proper temperature
for making Yridian tea.

416
00:25:10,900 --> 00:25:12,467
I no longer have any idea.

417
00:25:12,511 --> 00:25:14,077
In any case, it's hard to explain,

418
00:25:14,121 --> 00:25:16,036
but I am aware,

419
00:25:16,079 --> 00:25:17,951
or rather, my algorithms
allow me to predict

420
00:25:17,994 --> 00:25:19,996
with a high degree of confidence,

421
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,347
that Captain Rios is in sore need

422
00:25:23,391 --> 00:25:27,264
of a confidant, right about now.

423
00:26:30,545 --> 00:26:32,666
Rios, honey? It's Raffi.

424
00:26:32,709 --> 00:26:35,032
Thought you might need some company.

425
00:26:35,076 --> 00:26:37,339
Piss off!

426
00:26:37,683 --> 00:26:40,337
Pissing off.

427
00:27:27,428 --> 00:27:29,560
These are the ones Hugh reclaimed.

428
00:27:29,604 --> 00:27:32,172
Thousands more are still in stasis.

429
00:27:32,215 --> 00:27:33,390
Wake them up.

430
00:27:33,434 --> 00:27:34,696
They'll be useless.

431
00:27:34,740 --> 00:27:36,872
Lost without the voice
of the Collective.

432
00:27:40,484 --> 00:27:46,099
I could reactivate and
reconnect their transceivers.

433
00:27:46,142 --> 00:27:48,057
Create a kind of micro-collective

434
00:27:48,101 --> 00:27:49,755
of just the Borg on this cube.

435
00:27:49,798 --> 00:27:52,148
Coordinate their movements,

436
00:27:52,192 --> 00:27:54,629
deploy them against the Romulan troops.

437
00:27:54,673 --> 00:27:56,762
That sounds amazing. Do that.

438
00:27:56,805 --> 00:27:58,938
Assimilate them?

439
00:27:58,981 --> 00:28:01,984
Invade their minds,
suppress their identities,

440
00:28:02,028 --> 00:28:04,291
enslave them... again?

441
00:28:04,334 --> 00:28:05,945
You can release them when we win.

442
00:28:05,988 --> 00:28:09,078
They won't want to be released,

443
00:28:09,122 --> 00:28:11,820
and I...

444
00:28:13,039 --> 00:28:15,998
I might not want to release them.

445
00:28:20,293 --> 00:28:21,393
Mm.

446
00:28:21,395 --> 00:28:23,702
Maybe this was a mistake.

447
00:28:26,182 --> 00:28:29,969
All right, somewhere underneath this...

448
00:28:30,012 --> 00:28:32,841
...absurd spectacle I see before me,

449
00:28:32,885 --> 00:28:36,366
are five broken pieces of Captain Rios.

450
00:28:37,010 --> 00:28:40,069
It's like you each got
dealt a hole card.

451
00:28:41,197 --> 00:28:43,243
How about you turn them over, hmm?

452
00:28:46,072 --> 00:28:47,377
Sit up.

453
00:28:50,076 --> 00:28:53,035
Oh... L-Let's start with the girl. Um,

454
00:28:53,079 --> 00:28:56,560
Ian, you called her "Jana".
You said you recognized her.

455
00:28:56,604 --> 00:28:58,867
I did. I do. I do, too.

456
00:28:58,911 --> 00:29:00,608
Yes. Jana.

457
00:29:00,651 --> 00:29:02,349
Poor thing. It was just...

458
00:29:02,392 --> 00:29:03,916
so tragic.

459
00:29:03,959 --> 00:29:05,221
I...

460
00:29:07,049 --> 00:29:08,082
No.

461
00:29:08,084 --> 00:29:09,270
Sorry.

462
00:29:09,312 --> 00:29:11,662
It's like my knowledge of
Medusan astrogation techniques,

463
00:29:11,706 --> 00:29:13,447
totally gone.

464
00:29:13,490 --> 00:29:15,754
It's something to do with
his time on the ibn Majid,

465
00:29:15,797 --> 00:29:16,842
with his captain.

466
00:29:16,885 --> 00:29:19,845
Aye, Captain Alonzo Vandermeer.

467
00:29:19,888 --> 00:29:22,848
Well, what about him? Were they close?

468
00:29:22,891 --> 00:29:24,719
Is he alive?

469
00:29:24,763 --> 00:29:26,242
It's, um...

470
00:29:26,286 --> 00:29:28,201
Ah...

471
00:29:28,244 --> 00:29:30,899
The information's there,
somewhere. I can feel it...

472
00:29:33,293 --> 00:29:35,730
...but I can't quite get at it.

473
00:29:35,774 --> 00:29:37,471
Emmet.

474
00:29:41,605 --> 00:29:42,824
What?

475
00:29:42,868 --> 00:29:45,784
Ugh.

476
00:29:45,827 --> 00:29:48,047
What happened to Vandermeer?

477
00:29:52,791 --> 00:29:55,402
Oh. Well, that's awful.

478
00:29:55,445 --> 00:29:56,795
Do we know why?

479
00:29:56,838 --> 00:30:00,059
It's one of those things
ye ken, but ye dinna say.

480
00:30:01,974 --> 00:30:05,891
Turns out we don't actually "ken".

481
00:30:07,283 --> 00:30:11,244
I can feel the answer, or a ghost of it.

482
00:30:11,287 --> 00:30:13,855
This may violate my Hippocratic coding,

483
00:30:13,899 --> 00:30:16,162
but after the whole thing was over,

484
00:30:16,205 --> 00:30:18,860
Captain Rios suffered
some kind of breakdown.

485
00:30:18,904 --> 00:30:20,253
Oy, oy, oy.

486
00:30:20,296 --> 00:30:22,255
That's why he was discharged.

487
00:30:22,298 --> 00:30:24,823
Um, "whole thing"? What "whole thing"?

488
00:30:26,259 --> 00:30:28,783
Something happened on the ibn Majid,

489
00:30:28,827 --> 00:30:31,133
something that had to do with Vandermeer

490
00:30:31,177 --> 00:30:33,262
and a girl named Jana.

491
00:30:33,306 --> 00:30:35,310
Don't bother searching for ship's logs

492
00:30:35,311 --> 00:30:36,922
or personnel records on the ibn Majid.

493
00:30:36,965 --> 00:30:38,165
- Why?
- It was all classified.

494
00:30:38,166 --> 00:30:40,124
Because?

495
00:30:41,709 --> 00:30:43,624
Oh, oh. come on.

496
00:30:43,667 --> 00:30:46,018
One of you knows.

497
00:30:46,061 --> 00:30:48,368
What happened on the ibn Majid?

498
00:30:48,411 --> 00:30:51,110
One of us knows.

499
00:30:51,153 --> 00:30:54,461
And he's sae fou as a piper
an' awfu aff the fang.

500
00:30:55,679 --> 00:30:56,679
So true, Ian.

501
00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:59,161
I mean...

502
00:30:59,205 --> 00:31:01,903
It's not even a language.

503
00:31:10,956 --> 00:31:12,958
Did it work?

504
00:31:13,001 --> 00:31:17,136
You neutralized the viridium,
if that's what you mean.

505
00:31:17,179 --> 00:31:21,401
We're no longer being
tracked by the Tal Shiar.

506
00:31:21,444 --> 00:31:24,883
We are now headed for Deep Space 12.

507
00:31:24,926 --> 00:31:27,320
When we arrive, you
will surrender yourself

508
00:31:27,363 --> 00:31:30,889
to the authorities for the
murder of Bruce Maddox.

509
00:31:39,158 --> 00:31:43,075
I've been trying to work it out...

510
00:31:43,118 --> 00:31:46,600
how you could have done such a thing.

511
00:31:47,143 --> 00:31:49,777
He was your mentor,

512
00:31:49,820 --> 00:31:53,346
your... lover.

513
00:31:59,918 --> 00:32:02,181
Why?

514
00:32:05,706 --> 00:32:07,534
I had to.

515
00:32:07,577 --> 00:32:11,668
When Commodore Oh came
to find me that day, she...

516
00:32:14,149 --> 00:32:16,673
...she did something to me.

517
00:32:16,717 --> 00:32:18,762
Poisoned me.

518
00:32:18,806 --> 00:32:21,200
So the head of Starfleet Security

519
00:32:21,243 --> 00:32:24,333
had you ingest a viridium tracker?

520
00:32:24,377 --> 00:32:29,208
Yes, but that's not
what I'm talking about.

521
00:32:31,036 --> 00:32:33,429
She put poison in my mind,

522
00:32:33,473 --> 00:32:35,954
Picard. She...

523
00:32:35,997 --> 00:32:40,480
put her hands on my
head and poured in...

524
00:32:45,964 --> 00:32:49,445
She put in a psychic block to
keep me from talking about it.

525
00:32:49,489 --> 00:32:53,188
- Ah, you must fight...
- I don't want to talk about it!

526
00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:58,977
Do you believe in hell?

527
00:33:00,543 --> 00:33:03,155
Yeah, neither did I,

528
00:33:03,198 --> 00:33:05,418
until I saw it.

529
00:33:05,461 --> 00:33:07,637
Now?

530
00:33:07,681 --> 00:33:11,380
I think about suicide every day.

531
00:33:11,424 --> 00:33:14,818
That's how I comfort myself.

532
00:33:14,862 --> 00:33:18,518
Was this experience,

533
00:33:18,561 --> 00:33:23,218
this vision of Oh's,

534
00:33:23,262 --> 00:33:26,047
one that she lived through herself?

535
00:33:26,091 --> 00:33:28,093
No, no.

536
00:33:28,136 --> 00:33:32,271
It happened...

537
00:33:32,314 --> 00:33:35,926
thousands of centuries ago

538
00:33:35,970 --> 00:33:39,191
because of hubris. Hubris like Bruce's.

539
00:33:39,234 --> 00:33:42,237
Because of synthetic life?

540
00:33:42,281 --> 00:33:45,414
We're at a threshold.

541
00:33:45,458 --> 00:33:49,027
I saw it, Picard. Oh showed me.

542
00:33:49,070 --> 00:33:50,767
Unless we act quickly

543
00:33:50,811 --> 00:33:54,293
and destroy even the
possibility of synthetic life...

544
00:33:54,336 --> 00:33:58,036
Hell will come again.

545
00:33:59,602 --> 00:34:02,301
And this threshold...

546
00:34:02,344 --> 00:34:07,045
Is the coming of Seb
Cheneb. The Destroyer.

547
00:34:11,527 --> 00:34:12,702
Me.

548
00:34:16,097 --> 00:34:18,839
? In my ?

549
00:34:18,882 --> 00:34:22,190
? Solitude ?

550
00:34:24,888 --> 00:34:29,371
? You haunt me ?

551
00:34:33,245 --> 00:34:38,380
? With reveries ?

552
00:34:38,424 --> 00:34:44,517
? Of days gone by ?

553
00:34:46,910 --> 00:34:52,438
? In my solitude ?

554
00:34:53,961 --> 00:34:58,052
? You taunt me... ?

555
00:34:58,096 --> 00:35:00,446
So...

556
00:35:00,489 --> 00:35:05,407
Captain Alonzo Vandermeer.

557
00:35:06,234 --> 00:35:08,410
Uh, that his...

558
00:35:08,454 --> 00:35:10,238
Walkman?

559
00:35:10,282 --> 00:35:13,372
? Never die ?

560
00:35:13,415 --> 00:35:16,070
I used to pretend he was my father.

561
00:35:16,114 --> 00:35:17,637
Mm.

562
00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:20,161
Called him "Pops" in my head.

563
00:35:20,205 --> 00:35:22,424
Couple of times, it almost slipped out.

564
00:35:22,468 --> 00:35:23,643
Mm.

565
00:35:23,686 --> 00:35:25,906
Kind of a surprise when
he turned out to be

566
00:35:25,949 --> 00:35:27,690
a cold-blooded murderer.

567
00:35:27,734 --> 00:35:29,736
Who...

568
00:35:29,779 --> 00:35:32,130
who did he murder?

569
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:35,133
Do you sleep?

570
00:35:36,003 --> 00:35:38,214
Every night.

571
00:35:39,659 --> 00:35:41,574
You sleep every night.

572
00:35:41,617 --> 00:35:44,577
My God.

573
00:35:44,620 --> 00:35:46,274
Do you eat?

574
00:35:46,318 --> 00:35:48,842
When I'm hungry.

575
00:35:49,886 --> 00:35:52,019
What do you do when you're sad?

576
00:35:52,062 --> 00:35:54,239
Cry.

577
00:35:54,282 --> 00:35:55,762
Thirsty?

578
00:35:55,805 --> 00:35:57,546
Drink.

579
00:35:57,590 --> 00:36:01,159
You drink when you're thirsty.

580
00:36:03,987 --> 00:36:06,120
That is so beautiful.

581
00:36:06,164 --> 00:36:08,383
We were way the hell out

582
00:36:08,427 --> 00:36:10,255
in the Vayt Sector.

583
00:36:10,298 --> 00:36:11,952
Picked up a diplomatic mission.

584
00:36:11,995 --> 00:36:13,083
Out of nowhere,

585
00:36:13,127 --> 00:36:14,737
tiny ship,

586
00:36:14,781 --> 00:36:16,391
unknown design.

587
00:36:16,435 --> 00:36:18,263
Two passengers.

588
00:36:18,306 --> 00:36:20,439
We scanned them. They checked out.

589
00:36:20,482 --> 00:36:22,267
We sent the info to Starfleet

590
00:36:22,310 --> 00:36:25,574
and notified them of a first contact.

591
00:36:25,618 --> 00:36:27,620
Then we beamed them on board.

592
00:36:27,663 --> 00:36:29,274
The ambassador,

593
00:36:29,317 --> 00:36:31,450
Beautiful Flower,

594
00:36:31,493 --> 00:36:35,628
and his young protégée.

595
00:36:35,671 --> 00:36:37,717
Jana.

596
00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:39,371
You have a constellation

597
00:36:39,414 --> 00:36:43,157
of three beauty marks
on your right cheek.

598
00:36:43,201 --> 00:36:45,899
Which is a good thing?

599
00:36:45,942 --> 00:36:47,683
Which is artistry.

600
00:36:47,727 --> 00:36:50,904
Noonien Soong, who made Data,
thought of himself as an artist.

601
00:36:50,947 --> 00:36:52,471
But...

602
00:36:52,514 --> 00:36:55,082
he never gave Data three beauty marks.

603
00:36:56,214 --> 00:36:58,738
I also have a mole on my chest.

604
00:36:58,781 --> 00:37:01,219
And a crooked pinky toe.

605
00:37:01,262 --> 00:37:02,829
You are a wonder.

606
00:37:02,872 --> 00:37:07,355
A... technological
masterpiece and work of art.

607
00:37:07,399 --> 00:37:08,922
Am I a person?

608
00:37:08,965 --> 00:37:11,707
We shake hands.

609
00:37:11,751 --> 00:37:14,232
We sit down, have a bite to eat.

610
00:37:14,275 --> 00:37:15,581
A few hours later,

611
00:37:15,624 --> 00:37:17,974
Alonzo Vandermeer kills
them both in cold blood.

612
00:37:18,018 --> 00:37:22,196
He takes them both out with
two quick pops of a phaser.

613
00:37:22,240 --> 00:37:23,763
Why?

614
00:37:23,806 --> 00:37:26,331
Am I a person?

615
00:37:27,657 --> 00:37:29,247
Not in theory.

616
00:37:29,890 --> 00:37:32,337
To you. Right now. Looking at me.

617
00:37:32,380 --> 00:37:33,960
Talking to me.

618
00:37:36,231 --> 00:37:40,258
Do you consider me to
be a person like you?

619
00:37:40,301 --> 00:37:41,737
It was a black flag directive,

620
00:37:41,781 --> 00:37:44,044
straight from Starfleet Security.

621
00:37:44,087 --> 00:37:46,307
He told me they said

622
00:37:46,351 --> 00:37:47,874
if he disobeyed,

623
00:37:47,917 --> 00:37:50,224
the ibn Majid would be destroyed

624
00:37:50,268 --> 00:37:51,356
- with all hands.
- What?

625
00:37:51,399 --> 00:37:53,662
I went at him hard.

626
00:37:53,706 --> 00:37:55,925
Pretty hard.

627
00:38:03,411 --> 00:38:05,326
That's when he put the
phaser in his mouth

628
00:38:05,370 --> 00:38:06,806
and pulled the trigger.

629
00:38:08,350 --> 00:38:11,027
Oh, Chris.

630
00:38:11,571 --> 00:38:14,944
Raffi, then-then I covered it up.

631
00:38:17,129 --> 00:38:19,601
Like he was supposed to do.

632
00:38:21,611 --> 00:38:23,301
So it wouldn't all be for nothing.

633
00:38:23,344 --> 00:38:25,477
So they wouldn't blow up the ibn Majid

634
00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:27,566
and everyone on it.

635
00:38:27,609 --> 00:38:28,915
I beamed the bodies into space.

636
00:38:28,958 --> 00:38:32,310
Deleted it from the transporter log.

637
00:38:33,398 --> 00:38:34,964
Let the whole fleet know

638
00:38:35,008 --> 00:38:37,315
that Alonzo Vandermeer
had killed himself

639
00:38:37,358 --> 00:38:39,360
for no fucking reason at all.

640
00:38:46,097 --> 00:38:49,109
Six months later, I
was out of Starfleet.

641
00:38:49,652 --> 00:38:51,720
They called it, uh,

642
00:38:51,764 --> 00:38:55,289
post-traumatic dysphoria.

643
00:38:55,533 --> 00:38:56,986
But I was just...

644
00:38:57,030 --> 00:38:58,597
Broken.

645
00:39:02,122 --> 00:39:05,081
I'm so sorry, babe.

646
00:39:07,409 --> 00:39:10,783
When that girl beamed aboard today,

647
00:39:10,826 --> 00:39:13,176
I mean, Raffi...

648
00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:15,962
it's the same girl.

649
00:39:16,505 --> 00:39:19,531
The other one sketched
it while we were talking.

650
00:39:20,174 --> 00:39:22,216
They were synths.

651
00:39:22,660 --> 00:39:24,187
That's why they had to die.

652
00:39:26,232 --> 00:39:28,191
Chris,

653
00:39:28,235 --> 00:39:30,237
who gave the order?

654
00:39:31,180 --> 00:39:32,365
Commodore Oh

655
00:39:32,408 --> 00:39:34,502
ordered you to kill me, too.

656
00:39:38,745 --> 00:39:41,466
I would never give you the opportunity.

657
00:39:42,009 --> 00:39:43,946
Now that I've met you,

658
00:39:43,990 --> 00:39:45,818
I would never take it.

659
00:39:45,861 --> 00:39:49,822
Never, ever again.

660
00:39:52,890 --> 00:39:54,466
Okay?

661
00:40:17,553 --> 00:40:19,338
I'm afraid I broke your gun.

662
00:40:19,381 --> 00:40:22,863
Someone get me another weapon.

663
00:40:22,907 --> 00:40:26,127
The lights are going out.

664
00:40:28,521 --> 00:40:30,436
Are those Borg life signs?

665
00:40:41,621 --> 00:40:43,579
Do they frighten you?

666
00:40:43,623 --> 00:40:45,843
I'd be a fool if they didn't.

667
00:40:46,974 --> 00:40:51,544
Something far worse
is coming, Centurion,

668
00:40:51,587 --> 00:40:54,590
if I fail in my work.

669
00:41:17,265 --> 00:41:20,268
We are Borg.

670
00:41:20,312 --> 00:41:22,531
We are Borg. We are Borg.

671
00:41:25,534 --> 00:41:26,884
Now.

672
00:41:31,976 --> 00:41:33,238
No!

673
00:42:06,314 --> 00:42:08,926
Well...

674
00:42:08,969 --> 00:42:11,319
I'm done murdering people.

675
00:42:12,973 --> 00:42:15,976
So that's a good thing.

676
00:42:18,500 --> 00:42:22,417
When we get to Deep Space
12, I'm gonna turn myself in.

677
00:42:25,943 --> 00:42:28,249
Are you all right?

678
00:42:41,915 --> 00:42:44,700
I-I'm sorry.

679
00:42:45,144 --> 00:42:47,790
You all are the closest
I've come in a long...

680
00:42:47,834 --> 00:42:53,622
time, maybe ever, to having a-a...

681
00:42:55,624 --> 00:42:57,235
...crew.

682
00:42:57,278 --> 00:43:01,587
S... Sorry I had to fucking ruin it.

683
00:43:07,732 --> 00:43:09,595
Sh-Should we get into it?

684
00:43:20,353 --> 00:43:22,216
I'm sorry, too.

685
00:43:22,260 --> 00:43:25,045
Peppermint, French fries.

686
00:43:25,089 --> 00:43:27,134
To me it looks kind
of disgusting, but...

687
00:43:28,005 --> 00:43:29,223
...you love it, right?

688
00:43:29,267 --> 00:43:31,399
How did you know?

689
00:43:33,010 --> 00:43:34,315
Oh, we'll get there, honey.

690
00:43:35,708 --> 00:43:37,840
Now listen.

691
00:43:37,884 --> 00:43:40,974
Two, three hundred thousand years ago,

692
00:43:41,018 --> 00:43:45,065
somebody drags eight suns together.

693
00:43:45,109 --> 00:43:48,112
They hang a planet in the middle.

694
00:43:48,155 --> 00:43:51,463
And on this planet,
they place a warning.

695
00:43:51,506 --> 00:43:55,119
The Romulans call it the Admonition.

696
00:43:55,162 --> 00:43:57,121
This warning says,

697
00:43:57,164 --> 00:43:59,645
"Don't do what we did.

698
00:43:59,688 --> 00:44:02,865
We created synthetic life-forms, and..."

699
00:44:02,909 --> 00:44:04,171
And they evolved.

700
00:44:05,259 --> 00:44:08,741
And it did not go well. At all.

701
00:44:09,284 --> 00:44:10,699
Meaning?

702
00:44:10,743 --> 00:44:14,007
Apparently, these people
believed there was a threshold

703
00:44:14,051 --> 00:44:17,576
of synthetic evolution, a dividing line.

704
00:44:17,619 --> 00:44:18,620
Like

705
00:44:18,624 --> 00:44:20,464
with Zefram Cochrane and warp drive,

706
00:44:20,465 --> 00:44:22,885
When you cross that line,

707
00:44:22,929 --> 00:44:24,278
somebody shows up?

708
00:44:24,322 --> 00:44:26,498
Somebody really bad.

709
00:44:26,541 --> 00:44:28,326
The Romulans, it seems,

710
00:44:28,369 --> 00:44:31,068
took this Admonition very seriously.

711
00:44:31,111 --> 00:44:34,201
They created a group,

712
00:44:34,245 --> 00:44:37,683
the Zhat Vash,

713
00:44:37,726 --> 00:44:39,598
dedicated to finding

714
00:44:39,641 --> 00:44:43,471
and terminating all synthetic life.

715
00:44:43,515 --> 00:44:47,736
So imagine, 30, 40 years ago,

716
00:44:47,780 --> 00:44:50,913
Dr. Noonien Soong starts
turning out synthetic life

717
00:44:50,957 --> 00:44:53,133
that's equal to human beings.

718
00:44:53,177 --> 00:44:55,540
Superior, in some ways.

719
00:44:56,383 --> 00:45:00,706
The Romulans send in
a mole, a half-Romulan

720
00:45:00,749 --> 00:45:04,231
Vulcan named Oh.

721
00:45:05,798 --> 00:45:07,582
She burrows into Starfleet,

722
00:45:07,626 --> 00:45:11,238
rises through the ranks and
becomes head of Security.

723
00:45:12,370 --> 00:45:15,373
And all the while, she has one mandate:

724
00:45:15,416 --> 00:45:17,723
to put a stop to the
Federation's research

725
00:45:17,766 --> 00:45:19,986
and development of synthetic life-forms.

726
00:45:21,129 --> 00:45:23,642
To this end, she decides

727
00:45:23,685 --> 00:45:28,342
to engineer a situation so terrifying

728
00:45:28,386 --> 00:45:30,866
that the Federation's only response

729
00:45:30,910 --> 00:45:35,219
will be to ban synths forever.

730
00:45:35,262 --> 00:45:37,830
The Romulans were
behind the attack on Mars.

731
00:45:37,873 --> 00:45:39,571
Yeah.

732
00:45:39,614 --> 00:45:43,923
It has a certain ring to it, am I right?

733
00:45:43,966 --> 00:45:45,707
Carry on.

734
00:45:45,751 --> 00:45:49,581
But the commodore's work wasn't done.

735
00:45:49,624 --> 00:45:52,801
Nine years ago, a Starfleet
vessel had first contact

736
00:45:52,845 --> 00:45:54,238
with a pair of emissaries

737
00:45:54,281 --> 00:45:56,588
from a strange new world.

738
00:45:56,631 --> 00:45:58,807
One called himself Beautiful Flower.

739
00:45:59,852 --> 00:46:01,158
The other one was...

740
00:46:01,201 --> 00:46:02,724
Jana.

741
00:46:05,945 --> 00:46:07,425
How do I know that?

742
00:46:07,468 --> 00:46:09,348
The same way I know you
like to dip French fries

743
00:46:09,349 --> 00:46:10,872
in peppermint ice cream.

744
00:46:12,212 --> 00:46:14,606
Jana and this Flower

745
00:46:14,649 --> 00:46:17,696
came from the world that
Bruce Maddox fled to

746
00:46:17,739 --> 00:46:20,133
when he left Earth after the ban,

747
00:46:20,177 --> 00:46:24,355
bound and determined
to carry out his work.

748
00:46:24,398 --> 00:46:27,923
And the Zhat Vash have
been searching for this world

749
00:46:27,967 --> 00:46:29,273
ever since.

750
00:46:29,316 --> 00:46:31,797
Which they have now found because of me.

751
00:46:40,719 --> 00:46:43,374
Excuse me.

752
00:46:53,566 --> 00:46:56,069
Soji, what are you doing?

753
00:46:56,613 --> 00:46:58,353
Emmet, ayuda.

754
00:46:59,541 --> 00:47:00,617
Emmet!

755
00:47:00,660 --> 00:47:02,193
I deactivated them. Don't worry,

756
00:47:02,236 --> 00:47:04,645
I'm not going to hurt anybody,
I just need to get back home.

757
00:47:04,646 --> 00:47:06,875
You'll get your ship back,
Rios, the minute we're there.

758
00:47:06,919 --> 00:47:09,302
Kid, I understand why you're
doing this, but it's not right.

759
00:47:09,303 --> 00:47:10,863
We want to help you. You cannot just...

760
00:47:10,864 --> 00:47:12,246
How could you possibly understand?

761
00:47:12,250 --> 00:47:13,442
Is someone trying to wipe out

762
00:47:13,486 --> 00:47:14,692
your family?

763
00:47:14,735 --> 00:47:16,058
Do you even have a family?

764
00:47:16,402 --> 00:47:18,073
I do not.

765
00:47:18,117 --> 00:47:19,174
What...

766
00:47:19,218 --> 00:47:20,585
W-What is that?

767
00:47:20,628 --> 00:47:23,152
Is that some kind of subspace tunneling?

768
00:47:23,196 --> 00:47:25,590
It's a map of the Borg
transwarp conduit network.

769
00:47:25,633 --> 00:47:27,993
At this speed, we're about nine
hours from the nearest node.

770
00:47:28,394 --> 00:47:31,030
I don't actually know
how I know that. I...

771
00:47:31,073 --> 00:47:33,153
I must have picked it up on
the cube while I was busy

772
00:47:33,154 --> 00:47:35,295
being Dr. Soji Asha.

773
00:47:35,339 --> 00:47:37,341
The second I heard
the truth about the ban,

774
00:47:37,384 --> 00:47:39,256
the Admonition and what happened

775
00:47:39,299 --> 00:47:40,939
to my brother and
sister on the ibn Majid,

776
00:47:40,940 --> 00:47:43,072
I suddenly seem to know
a whole lot of things.

777
00:47:44,696 --> 00:47:46,175
Do you know this?

778
00:47:46,219 --> 00:47:49,048
? Arroz con leche se quiere casar ?

779
00:47:49,091 --> 00:47:51,790
? Con una viudita de la capital ?

780
00:47:51,833 --> 00:47:54,532
? Que sepa tejer, que sepa bordar ?

781
00:47:54,575 --> 00:47:57,578
? Que ponga la aguja en su campanal. ?

782
00:47:59,319 --> 00:48:01,887
It's a lullaby my mother
used to sing to me.

783
00:48:01,930 --> 00:48:05,282
She didn't like other people
playing with her things, either.

784
00:48:06,979 --> 00:48:10,374
She's done it Maddox's
way, she's done it my way.

785
00:48:10,417 --> 00:48:12,724
Let's try doing it her way.

786
00:48:12,767 --> 00:48:16,554
And hope we get there
in time to warn them.

787
00:48:27,956 --> 00:48:30,611
Actually...

788
00:48:30,655 --> 00:48:32,787
I-I don't know how to work this.

789
00:48:34,006 --> 00:48:35,964
So, your plan is just,

790
00:48:36,008 --> 00:48:38,271
fly into a transwarp conduit,

791
00:48:38,315 --> 00:48:40,273
don't set up a
structural integrity field,

792
00:48:40,317 --> 00:48:41,666
no chroniton field?

793
00:48:41,709 --> 00:48:45,626
Just jump right in,
gravimetric shear be damned?

794
00:48:48,020 --> 00:48:50,979
Sirena is my goddamn ship, hija.

795
00:48:54,287 --> 00:48:58,639
Captain Rios, please take me home.

796
00:49:00,989 --> 00:49:02,991
For Jana's sake.

797
00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:28,016
I got you.

798
00:49:34,653 --> 00:49:37,293
The fleet has the coordinates
for the synthetic home world.

799
00:49:37,294 --> 00:49:38,787
They're leaving now.

800
00:49:38,831 --> 00:49:40,511
Have all the Borg been jettisoned?

801
00:49:40,528 --> 00:49:42,796
Yes, Colonel. In an hour we'll
have the xBs mopped up

802
00:49:42,840 --> 00:49:43,971
and be ready to embark...

803
00:49:44,015 --> 00:49:46,234
And is my ship ready for departure?

804
00:49:48,323 --> 00:49:49,890
Qezh.

805
00:50:21,487 --> 00:50:24,229
They are gone.

806
00:50:24,272 --> 00:50:28,015
It is over. The cube is ours again.

807
00:50:28,059 --> 00:50:30,583
So...

808
00:50:30,627 --> 00:50:33,804
are you gonna assimilate me now?

809
00:50:35,240 --> 00:50:38,896
Annika still has work to do.

810
00:50:54,915 --> 00:50:58,742
You know, I remember
standing the night watch

811
00:50:58,785 --> 00:51:01,527
as a young ensign on
the bridge of the Reliant.

812
00:51:01,570 --> 00:51:06,488
Feeling... I was the only one awake

813
00:51:06,532 --> 00:51:10,318
in all that... emptiness,

814
00:51:10,362 --> 00:51:12,917
all that silence.

815
00:51:13,835 --> 00:51:15,750
I'd forgotten

816
00:51:15,794 --> 00:51:17,796
until...

817
00:51:17,939 --> 00:51:20,464
just now

818
00:51:20,507 --> 00:51:23,380
how much I loved it.

819
00:51:25,638 --> 00:51:28,467
I knew Alonzo Vandermeer slightly.

820
00:51:28,510 --> 00:51:33,646
He was first officer to an
Academy classmate of mine.

821
00:51:33,690 --> 00:51:36,170
Captain Marta Batanides.

822
00:51:36,214 --> 00:51:37,694
You knew her?

823
00:51:37,737 --> 00:51:40,653
No, but... I felt like I did.

824
00:51:40,697 --> 00:51:42,786
She was a legend to the old man.

825
00:51:42,829 --> 00:51:44,788
My old man...

826
00:51:44,831 --> 00:51:47,965
Captain Vandermeer.

827
00:51:48,008 --> 00:51:50,402
Hmm.

828
00:51:58,018 --> 00:52:00,194
Did he know

829
00:52:00,238 --> 00:52:01,892
they were synthetic?

830
00:52:01,935 --> 00:52:04,503
I have to believe that he did.

831
00:52:04,546 --> 00:52:06,810
He must have thought that,

832
00:52:06,853 --> 00:52:08,812
because of that,

833
00:52:08,855 --> 00:52:10,988
he'd be able to live with it.

834
00:52:11,031 --> 00:52:16,036
I didn't know him
well, as I said, but...

835
00:52:16,080 --> 00:52:18,038
I felt he was a good man.

836
00:52:18,082 --> 00:52:21,476
One of the best that
Starfleet had to offer.

837
00:52:21,520 --> 00:52:23,478
He was.

838
00:52:23,522 --> 00:52:25,785
I, um...

839
00:52:25,829 --> 00:52:27,395
I hate that he died thinking

840
00:52:27,439 --> 00:52:29,833
it was really Starfleet
that betrayed him.

841
00:52:29,876 --> 00:52:31,704
Betrayed itself.

842
00:52:31,748 --> 00:52:33,837
But Starfleet did betray him.

843
00:52:33,880 --> 00:52:36,970
We did betray ourselves.

844
00:52:37,014 --> 00:52:41,540
Long before Oh gave
Vandermeer that order.

845
00:52:41,583 --> 00:52:44,717
The ban itself was a betrayal.

846
00:52:44,761 --> 00:52:48,068
Oh, the Zhat Vash... they set the trap,

847
00:52:48,112 --> 00:52:50,810
but we could merely have sidestepped it.

848
00:52:50,854 --> 00:52:53,421
Instead, we gave way to fear.

849
00:52:55,162 --> 00:52:58,557
It took her all of five minutes
to hack my ship, Picard.

850
00:52:58,600 --> 00:53:02,996
And now, maybe there's
a whole planet of them.

851
00:53:03,040 --> 00:53:06,043
Raffi said the Romulans
call her "the Destroyer".

852
00:53:07,479 --> 00:53:09,220
What if they're right?

853
00:53:09,263 --> 00:53:11,962
They may be right about what happened

854
00:53:12,005 --> 00:53:14,399
200,000 years ago.

855
00:53:14,442 --> 00:53:16,096
The past is written.

856
00:53:16,140 --> 00:53:19,317
But the future is left for us to write,

857
00:53:19,360 --> 00:53:21,841
and we have powerful tools, Rios:

858
00:53:21,885 --> 00:53:24,670
openness, optimism

859
00:53:24,713 --> 00:53:28,152
and the spirit of curiosity.

860
00:53:28,195 --> 00:53:31,242
All they have is secrecy and fear,

861
00:53:31,285 --> 00:53:35,159
and fear is the great
destroyer, Rios, not...

862
00:53:36,203 --> 00:53:37,901
We're there.

863
00:54:32,836 --> 00:54:37,036
We just came 25 light
years in 15 minutes.

864
00:54:37,037 --> 00:54:38,837
I noticed a little turbulence.

865
00:54:39,238 --> 00:54:41,038
We call it Capelleus.

866
00:54:41,039 --> 00:54:42,739
I was born there.

867
00:54:42,740 --> 00:54:43,840
Do they hate us?

868
00:54:43,841 --> 00:54:45,641
I really don't think so.

869
00:54:45,642 --> 00:54:48,142
I'm picking up five bogies
coming right at us.

870
00:54:52,443 --> 00:54:53,743
All power's gone.

871
00:54:53,744 --> 00:54:55,244
What do we do about it?

872
00:54:55,745 --> 00:54:57,445
Brace yourselves!

873
00:55:00,446 --> 00:55:06,446
