358
00:19:23,064 --> 00:19:24,392
RAYNER: Every mission's personal.
359
00:19:24,397 --> 00:19:25,727
It's called doing my job.
360
00:19:25,732 --> 00:19:26,896
And don't preach at me.
361
00:19:26,901 --> 00:19:28,597
I've heard plenty of stories about you.
362
00:19:28,601 --> 00:19:29,999
SARU: Captain, you must exit
363
00:19:30,004 --> 00:19:31,500
the bubble for us to get a lock on you.
364
00:19:31,504 --> 00:19:34,003
Come on, let them go, Rayner.
365
00:19:34,708 --> 00:19:36,740
We can track their warp signature.
366
00:19:37,243 --> 00:19:42,048
Let them go before you and
your crew are out of options.
367
00:19:42,053 --> 00:19:43,485
Come on.
368
00:19:45,617 --> 00:19:47,882
RAYNER: Ugh. Damn it.
369
00:19:49,386 --> 00:19:51,455
Releasing tractor beam.
370
00:20:13,913 --> 00:20:15,345
Mr. Saru!
371
00:20:16,249 --> 00:20:18,118
SARU: We are locking
onto you now, Captain.
372
00:20:23,156 --> 00:20:25,191
[PANTING]
373
00:20:35,267 --> 00:20:37,632
- You lost them.
- We'll find them.
374
00:20:37,637 --> 00:20:39,305
I have Captain Rayner for you.
375
00:20:40,340 --> 00:20:41,904
Put him through.
376
00:20:42,807 --> 00:20:46,374
That cherry that they just
dropped on our shit sundae
377
00:20:46,379 --> 00:20:49,712
left us with 20 warp signatures
all charting different courses.
378
00:20:50,416 --> 00:20:51,451
Mr. Saru?
379
00:20:52,719 --> 00:20:56,018
Uh, unfortunately, it will
likely take several days
380
00:20:56,023 --> 00:20:58,953
to determine which signature
belonged to their vessel.
381
00:20:58,958 --> 00:21:01,227
By which time they'll be long gone.
382
00:21:02,361 --> 00:21:04,759
This is the part where you tell me
383
00:21:04,764 --> 00:21:07,033
you have a brilliant idea.
384
00:21:11,304 --> 00:21:13,106
I know someone who can find them.
385
00:21:19,178 --> 00:21:22,248
[INDISTINCT ANNOUNCEMENT OVER COMMS]
386
00:21:34,460 --> 00:21:37,297
Permission to come aboard, Captain?
387
00:21:44,038 --> 00:21:45,602
The warp signature trick.
388
00:21:45,607 --> 00:21:47,703
Same kind we used on the Scaptar job.
389
00:21:47,707 --> 00:21:49,605
You think they used to be couriers.
390
00:21:49,609 --> 00:21:52,439
Federation's expanding, most
of the old networks are closed.
391
00:21:52,444 --> 00:21:54,543
Not how I'd choose
to make a living, but...
392
00:21:55,148 --> 00:21:57,279
So that's why you asked for me, then?
393
00:21:57,283 --> 00:22:00,549
See if I could sniff out which
is the real warp signature?
394
00:22:00,553 --> 00:22:04,219
You have experience,
expertise and insight.
395
00:22:04,223 --> 00:22:07,293
That was a lot of very
professional words, Michael.
396
00:22:13,266 --> 00:22:14,696
I'm sorry.
397
00:22:14,700 --> 00:22:15,798
It's okay.
398
00:22:17,101 --> 00:22:18,699
It has been a while.
399
00:22:18,704 --> 00:22:20,173
Yeah.

00:22:21,307 --> 00:22:22,575
It has.
401
00:22:24,276 --> 00:22:26,741
I hear you're doing
really good work, Book.
402
00:22:26,746 --> 00:22:30,246
Helping the refugees,
rebuilding after the DMA.
403
00:22:31,249 --> 00:22:33,514
I go where the Federation tells me.
404
00:22:33,519 --> 00:22:35,118
Today they said here.
405
00:22:36,522 --> 00:22:38,558
Whatever it takes to make things right.
406
00:22:44,697 --> 00:22:45,932
After you.
407
00:22:52,839 --> 00:22:54,503
RAYNER: These two are quite a pair.
408
00:22:54,508 --> 00:22:56,504
They're smart, slippery as hell,
409
00:22:56,509 --> 00:22:58,571

anyone but themselves.
410
00:22:58,576 --> 00:23:00,141
Meet Moll and L'ak.

approximately two years ago.
412
00:23:02,500 --> 00:23:04,179
No idea where they were before that.
413
00:23:04,183 --> 00:23:05,514
BOOK: What did they steal?
414
00:23:05,518 --> 00:23:07,382
BURNHAM: A tan zhekran.
415
00:23:07,386 --> 00:23:09,218
A traditional Romulan puzzle box.
416
00:23:09,222 --> 00:23:11,320
It was secured in a cloaked vault.
417
00:23:11,324 --> 00:23:13,655
The scientist it belonged
to was long dead.
418
00:23:13,659 --> 00:23:15,161
Any idea what was inside?
419
00:23:17,356 --> 00:23:18,920
No.
420
00:23:18,925 --> 00:23:23,130
Dr. Kovich, any context
would only help our mission.
421
00:23:23,135 --> 00:23:25,868
I'm not at liberty to share details.
422
00:23:26,671 --> 00:23:28,136
I'm sorry, Admiral.
423
00:23:28,940 --> 00:23:31,805
Mr. Booker, I'm told
424
00:23:31,810 --> 00:23:33,743
you might be able to point us
in the right direction
425
00:23:33,747 --> 00:23:35,181
with all of these warp trails.
426
00:23:36,045 --> 00:23:38,577
Well, my mind-reading
skill's a little rusty,
427
00:23:38,582 --> 00:23:40,513
but if I were still in the game
428
00:23:40,518 --> 00:23:43,150
and scored something that
everyone in Starfleet was after,
429
00:23:43,155 --> 00:23:44,651
definitely wouldn't take it anywhere
430
00:23:44,656 --> 00:23:45,920
in Federation territory.
431
00:23:46,323 --> 00:23:48,054
And 24th century,
432
00:23:48,059 --> 00:23:50,124
only a few fences
would even look at haul
433
00:23:50,129 --> 00:23:51,531
from that far back.
434
00:23:56,903 --> 00:23:58,268

00:23:59,372 --> 00:24:01,174

436
00:24:04,409 --> 00:24:06,274
Goes by the name of Fred.
437
00:24:06,279 --> 00:24:07,476
Fred...
438
00:24:08,179 --> 00:24:10,511
Just Fred.
439
00:24:10,516 --> 00:24:11,914
Mm.
440
00:24:11,918 --> 00:24:13,186
Ah.

00:24:15,620 --> 00:24:17,451
Captain Burnham, Captain Rayner,

00:24:19,026 --> 00:24:21,154
Uh, take Mr. Booker with you
since he's familiar
444
00:24:21,159 --> 00:24:22,723
with your contact there.
445
00:24:22,728 --> 00:24:25,360
Get in, get out, no noise.
446
00:24:25,364 --> 00:24:26,628
Aye.
447
00:24:26,632 --> 00:24:28,434

Why don't you try working together?

00:24:34,573 --> 00:24:35,737

[SIGHS]
457
00:24:58,397 --> 00:25:00,526
We've been on our share
of clandestine missions,
458
00:25:00,531 --> 00:25:01,629
but this...
459
00:25:01,634 --> 00:25:03,398
Even Admiral Vance is out of the loop?
460
00:25:03,402 --> 00:25:05,233
Ah, I noticed that as well.
461
00:25:05,237 --> 00:25:07,432
A tan zhekran could
contain anything, right?
462
00:25:07,437 --> 00:25:09,335
A weapon, a pathogen, but the databases
463
00:25:09,340 --> 00:25:11,639
won't tell me as much
as the Romulan's name.
464
00:25:12,342 --> 00:25:14,173
Well, perhaps someone with access
465
00:25:14,178 --> 00:25:17,179
to different databases
may be able to assist?
466
00:25:18,384 --> 00:25:23,089
Someone no longer within
Discovery's chain of command?

00:25:23,094 --> 00:25:24,296
[LAUGHS]: Oh.

00:25:29,122 --> 00:25:33,127
I'll miss you, if you take
that diplomatic post.

00:25:45,545 --> 00:25:46,613
Fred.

You have the conn.

Yeah, but that's the whole point
of Simulation Week,

I don't know, she didn't say.
Maybe she's shy?

[SIGHS] They can't all be shy.
481
00:26:06,565 --> 00:26:09,164

when you need to be,
that-that's Starfleet.

And we have so many
new missions coming up.

00:26:14,339 --> 00:26:15,436
It's a conundrum, yeah.
485

I mean, what that could
mean for the missions.

00:26:16,909 --> 00:26:18,340
Exactly. That's exactly it.

It's like what it means to be a crew.

onto an ice moon

in order to teach them that.

00:26:24,350 --> 00:26:25,981
Right? Could I? No.

Why did they wait
till all the after-parties

to give that to us?
498
00:26:39,565 --> 00:26:41,295

that out to the delegates

- before they left, you know?
- Yeah.

Oh.

Okay, um, yeah...

Well, m... actually,
maybe I have a fever.

- Oh. Yeah? Okay.
- Yeah. Yeah.

And yeah, if you ever
wanted to do it again,

00:27:10,396 --> 00:27:13,061
- like walk... walk or talk or...
- Yeah?

- Oh, well, I-I love...
- Yeah.

00:27:16,233 --> 00:27:17,530
- Yes.
- Good. Great.

You're not here. But it is warm.
529
00:27:50,402 --> 00:27:52,100
You should take my word for that.
530
00:27:52,104 --> 00:27:54,035
BURNHAM: You had the Andorian champagne.
531
00:27:54,039 --> 00:27:55,403
I did.
532
00:27:55,407 --> 00:27:57,405
But now I have coffee.

00:27:57,409 --> 00:27:59,608
And you have Serious Voice. What's up?

00:27:59,612 --> 00:28:00,942
BURNHAM: I could use some help,

00:28:00,946 --> 00:28:02,544
but you should feel free to say no.
