1
00:00:27,270 --> 00:00:29,650
Previously on Star Trek: Discovery...
2
00:00:29,655 --> 00:00:31,504
These experiences I've had,
3
00:00:31,509 --> 00:00:32,953
and now we're on this quest
4
00:00:32,958 --> 00:00:35,621
to find the thing that created us.
5
00:00:35,626 --> 00:00:37,623
- But Paul...
- Hates the unknown.
6
00:00:37,628 --> 00:00:40,252
And we've always been able
to find answers together.
7
00:00:40,257 --> 00:00:41,957
I don't know how
to talk to him about this.
8
00:00:41,962 --> 00:00:43,530
It's a time bug. They're designed
9
00:00:43,534 --> 00:00:44,965
to paralyze an enemy ship
10
00:00:44,970 --> 00:00:46,954
by randomly cycling them through time.
11
00:00:46,959 --> 00:00:48,695
The whole point is to keep us stuck.
12
00:00:48,700 --> 00:00:51,468
Adira, the time bug wasn't your fault.
13
00:00:51,473 --> 00:00:53,091
Well, I brought it on board, didn't I?
14
00:00:53,096 --> 00:00:55,641
Two signatures on the bridge,
that's you and me.
15
00:00:55,646 --> 00:00:58,344
Three from sickbay. That's
Moll and L'ak and the clue.
16
00:00:58,349 --> 00:00:59,445
They found it.
17
00:01:11,462 --> 00:01:13,024
This wasn't supposed to happen.
18
00:01:13,029 --> 00:01:14,412
Get away from us.
19
00:01:14,417 --> 00:01:16,188
- Captain?
- System shows
20
00:01:16,193 --> 00:01:18,421
it's a Terran warp pod. Two life signs,
21
00:01:18,426 --> 00:01:19,558
sickbay equipment. It's got to be
22
00:01:19,562 --> 00:01:21,611
- a life-support system.
- It's Moll and L'ak.
23
00:01:21,616 --> 00:01:22,641
We'll find them.
24
00:01:22,646 --> 00:01:24,023
They left a warp signature.
25
00:01:24,027 --> 00:01:25,027
We'll track it.
26
00:01:25,032 --> 00:01:27,983
Paul is prepping to do
a full chemical analysis
27
00:01:27,988 --> 00:01:29,549
of this vial.
28
00:01:29,554 --> 00:01:32,101
And then we'll have our next stop.
29
00:01:42,058 --> 00:01:44,838
You think the scientists
designed these clues
30
00:01:44,843 --> 00:01:47,624
to mock you when you
can't figure them out?
31
00:01:47,629 --> 00:01:50,188
- I think this will work.
- It better.
32
00:01:51,707 --> 00:01:53,747
This clue's been
stalling us for two days.
33
00:01:53,752 --> 00:01:55,837
- Any other tests we can run?
- That'll tell us
34
00:01:55,841 --> 00:01:57,142
something different than the
35
00:01:57,147 --> 00:01:58,826
hundred other tests we've already run?
36
00:01:59,131 --> 00:02:00,215
I don't think so.
37
00:02:00,220 --> 00:02:02,047
Vial's composition's
38
00:02:02,052 --> 00:02:06,164
generic, and the water
inside remains pure,
39
00:02:06,169 --> 00:02:09,841
inert, distilled, and wet.
40
00:02:09,846 --> 00:02:12,688
Vial's damaged. Maybe
there's a piece missing.
41
00:02:12,693 --> 00:02:15,217
Modified spectral
analysis reveals the fluid
42
00:02:15,222 --> 00:02:16,914
in this vial to be...
43
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:19,940
- still just distilled water.
- Damn.
44
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:25,191
The other clues had words,
45
00:02:25,196 --> 00:02:28,273
had symbols, they had more.
46
00:02:28,278 --> 00:02:30,206
You know, I have reviewed scans from
47
00:02:30,211 --> 00:02:32,669
ISS Enterprise multiple times.
48
00:02:32,674 --> 00:02:34,597
There was never anything else there.
49
00:02:35,968 --> 00:02:38,028
I even tried fabricating
the last two pieces
50
00:02:38,032 --> 00:02:39,689
of the map to see what'd happen
51
00:02:39,694 --> 00:02:40,920
when I put them in, and...
52
00:02:40,925 --> 00:02:42,162
Let me guess, nothing.
53
00:02:43,137 --> 00:02:44,681
There's no shortcuts here.
54
00:02:44,686 --> 00:02:46,826
We have to solve this clue to find
55
00:02:46,831 --> 00:02:49,716
the next and then the next,
and we need all five.
56
00:02:49,721 --> 00:02:51,153
Then somehow you are gonna tell us
57
00:02:51,158 --> 00:02:52,893
where the Progenitors' power is.
58
00:02:53,498 --> 00:02:54,747
So keep at it.
59
00:02:54,752 --> 00:02:56,749
If chemistry isn't the solution,
60
00:02:56,754 --> 00:02:58,854
try history, anthropology.
61
00:02:58,859 --> 00:03:00,508
Try planets where distilled water
62
00:03:00,513 --> 00:03:03,206
had cultural or symbolic
significance 800 years ago.
63
00:03:03,211 --> 00:03:04,211
And include
64
00:03:04,216 --> 00:03:05,952
worlds that had severe droughts
65
00:03:05,957 --> 00:03:07,719
and would have needed
rainwater alternatives.
66
00:03:07,724 --> 00:03:09,761
- On it.
- Thank you.
67
00:03:24,498 --> 00:03:27,757
I still find it disorienting
myself sometimes.
68
00:03:27,762 --> 00:03:29,367
But you get used to it.
69
00:03:29,372 --> 00:03:32,175
Here I was, thinking
you were born in here.
70
00:03:33,507 --> 00:03:35,521
We could be at black alert
within the hour.
71
00:03:35,526 --> 00:03:36,853
What are our coordinates?
72
00:03:36,858 --> 00:03:37,902
Excuse me?
73
00:03:37,907 --> 00:03:39,725
I assume I'm here
because you have a lead
74
00:03:39,730 --> 00:03:40,900
on Moll and L'ak.
75
00:03:40,905 --> 00:03:43,294
Uh, no. Not yet.
76
00:03:43,299 --> 00:03:46,645
The USS Locherer is handling the search.
77
00:03:46,650 --> 00:03:48,255
This is Discovery's mission.
78
00:03:48,260 --> 00:03:50,170
Finding the Progenitors' technology
79
00:03:50,175 --> 00:03:51,450
is Discovery's mission,
80
00:03:51,455 --> 00:03:53,826
and you seem to have your
hands full at the moment.
81
00:03:53,831 --> 00:03:55,385
This particular clue...
82
00:03:56,690 --> 00:03:58,206
We are a bit stalled.
83
00:04:00,316 --> 00:04:03,401
The scientists who hid
the technology's location
84
00:04:03,406 --> 00:04:06,709
each made their own piece
of the clue trail in secret.
85
00:04:06,714 --> 00:04:09,015
Stands to reason they
would have employed
86
00:04:09,020 --> 00:04:11,061
their respective fields of expertise
87
00:04:11,066 --> 00:04:12,924
in the process, don't you think?
88
00:04:13,908 --> 00:04:15,295
And then knowing
89
00:04:15,300 --> 00:04:17,359
the identity of the vial's creator
90
00:04:17,364 --> 00:04:18,896
might prove useful.
91
00:04:20,501 --> 00:04:23,508
You found the names of the scientists.
92
00:04:23,513 --> 00:04:25,576
I can be resourceful.
93
00:04:28,962 --> 00:04:30,589
I know it's eccentric of me,
94
00:04:30,594 --> 00:04:33,113
but I-I do love the feel of paper.
95
00:04:33,418 --> 00:04:35,028
And this isn't replicated either.
96
00:04:35,033 --> 00:04:37,548
This is a genuine 21st century
97
00:04:37,553 --> 00:04:38,842
legal pad.
98
00:04:41,388 --> 00:04:43,180
Where did you even find that?
99
00:04:43,185 --> 00:04:46,213
Like I said, I'm resourceful.
100
00:04:46,218 --> 00:04:48,499
And you have a mission to see to.
101
00:05:30,593 --> 00:05:32,169
Zora, pause the program.
102
00:05:38,353 --> 00:05:40,193
Send a message to Dr. Pollard:
103
00:05:40,998 --> 00:05:42,835
"We might be on to something with this
104
00:05:42,840 --> 00:05:45,042
grief-alleviation therapeutic".
105
00:05:46,535 --> 00:05:48,777
"Brain wave patterning is incredible".
106
00:05:50,418 --> 00:05:52,642
"And this holo of my grandmother is..."
107
00:05:56,010 --> 00:05:57,834
"... exactly as I remember her".
108
00:06:00,871 --> 00:06:02,895
"Sending over my data in a few minutes".
109
00:06:07,395 --> 00:06:09,263
Zora, start the program again.
110
00:06:45,524 --> 00:06:46,617
No.
111
00:06:49,628 --> 00:06:51,190
Program, check the database.
112
00:06:51,195 --> 00:06:52,840
She should be able to answer that.
113
00:06:53,745 --> 00:06:54,833
We spoke often
114
00:06:54,838 --> 00:06:56,884
about her spiritual feelings
and practices.
115
00:07:15,189 --> 00:07:17,203
Of course.
116
00:07:21,134 --> 00:07:24,715
Okay, we haven't yet found
clues from Dr. Derex or Dr. Kreel.
117
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:25,803
For the vial,
118
00:07:25,808 --> 00:07:27,213
I'm betting on Kreel.
119
00:07:27,218 --> 00:07:29,663
His specialty was designing
weather modification towers
120
00:07:29,668 --> 00:07:30,882
to generate rain.
121
00:07:31,287 --> 00:07:32,866
So, we're going to Denobula.
122
00:07:32,871 --> 00:07:35,700
Maybe not. Um, Zora,
123
00:07:35,705 --> 00:07:37,223
can you confirm,
124
00:07:37,228 --> 00:07:40,670
Denobulan weather towers seed clouds
125
00:07:40,675 --> 00:07:43,460
- with silver iodide, right?
- Yes, Commander.
126
00:07:43,465 --> 00:07:45,201
That is typical of their function
127
00:07:45,206 --> 00:07:46,693
both at present and during
128
00:07:46,698 --> 00:07:47,756
Dr. Kreel's time.
129
00:07:47,761 --> 00:07:49,535
All right, so then the water
130
00:07:49,540 --> 00:07:51,934
would be filled with contaminants,
131
00:07:51,939 --> 00:07:53,940
but it's ultra-distilled.
132
00:07:53,945 --> 00:07:55,781
Well, Kreel's file also mentioned
133
00:07:55,786 --> 00:07:58,946
he did work in weather
technology for other worlds.
134
00:08:00,164 --> 00:08:01,783
If a planet were arid enough...
135
00:08:01,788 --> 00:08:04,202
Then water would have to be
extracted from the air
136
00:08:04,207 --> 00:08:05,351
at the molecular level,
137
00:08:05,356 --> 00:08:08,032
which would mean
no contaminants whatsoever.
138
00:08:08,537 --> 00:08:10,426
Zora, how many M-Class planets
139
00:08:10,431 --> 00:08:12,646
were on Denobulan trade routes
when this vial was created?
140
00:08:12,650 --> 00:08:13,651
15.
141
00:08:13,656 --> 00:08:15,300
And how many of them were dry enough
142
00:08:15,305 --> 00:08:17,246
that water would need to be harvested
143
00:08:17,251 --> 00:08:18,612
in that particular way?
144
00:08:18,617 --> 00:08:20,440
Only one, Captain.
145
00:08:20,445 --> 00:08:22,442
Halem'no.
146
00:08:22,447 --> 00:08:23,797
Whew.
147
00:08:27,317 --> 00:08:29,145
The planet Halem'no.
148
00:08:29,150 --> 00:08:32,461
Long-range scans show
a functioning weather tower
149
00:08:32,466 --> 00:08:33,932
of Denobulan design.
150
00:08:34,530 --> 00:08:36,545
It manufactures rain,
151
00:08:36,550 --> 00:08:38,547
and it emits a low-grade forcefield
152
00:08:38,552 --> 00:08:40,927
that shields the planet's
only habitable region
153
00:08:40,932 --> 00:08:42,233
from dust storms.
154
00:08:42,238 --> 00:08:44,161
We've been able to confirm
that Dr. Kreel
155
00:08:44,166 --> 00:08:45,758
designed the tower, so we believe
156
00:08:45,763 --> 00:08:47,991
the next clue is inside of it.
157
00:08:47,996 --> 00:08:50,298
Why would he make a weather
tower look like a mountain?
158
00:08:50,303 --> 00:08:51,647
That's a good question.
159
00:08:51,652 --> 00:08:54,693
Ensign Tal, any life signs down there?
160
00:08:54,698 --> 00:08:56,204
Uh...
161
00:08:56,209 --> 00:08:59,307
Yes. Uh... humanoid. Um...
162
00:08:59,312 --> 00:09:02,484
Uh, d-definitely pre-warp
and pre-industrial.
163
00:09:02,489 --> 00:09:04,703
Uh, there's no functioning
164
00:09:04,708 --> 00:09:05,940
electrical grid,
165
00:09:05,945 --> 00:09:08,533
and geological surveys show
166
00:09:08,538 --> 00:09:10,579
that the storms
on the planet have gotten
167
00:09:10,584 --> 00:09:14,017
increasingly more severe
over time, so...
168
00:09:14,022 --> 00:09:16,280
maybe Dr. Kreel installed the tower
169
00:09:16,285 --> 00:09:17,995
as a humanitarian mission
170
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:21,372
and hid it so not to violate
the Prime Directive?
171
00:09:21,377 --> 00:09:24,462
Makes sense. It's good to
see you on the bridge, Ensign.
172
00:09:24,467 --> 00:09:27,813
They requested more time up
here. I felt they were ready.
173
00:09:27,818 --> 00:09:29,702
Didn't necessarily mean today.
174
00:09:29,707 --> 00:09:31,200
No time like the present.
175
00:09:31,905 --> 00:09:32,936
Okay, so
176
00:09:32,941 --> 00:09:35,447
the Prime Directive will be
a concern for us, too.
177
00:09:35,452 --> 00:09:37,388
We'll need to get in and out
without revealing
178
00:09:37,393 --> 00:09:38,911
our technological capabilities.
179
00:09:38,916 --> 00:09:41,257
Can scans help us locate
the clue inside of that thing?
180
00:09:41,262 --> 00:09:44,917
No, there is an unusual energy
field surrounding the tower.
181
00:09:44,922 --> 00:09:46,528
Won't let me beam you in either.
182
00:09:46,533 --> 00:09:48,447
- Any idea why?
- Uh, not yet,
183
00:09:48,452 --> 00:09:51,015
- but we are working on it.
- Okay. Well, while they
184
00:09:51,020 --> 00:09:53,230
get to the bottom of that,
I will head to the surface
185
00:09:53,235 --> 00:09:54,531
with Lieutenant Tilly.
186
00:09:54,536 --> 00:09:55,554
We'll have to get inside
187
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:57,930
of that tower before Moll
and L'ak make their next move.
188
00:09:57,935 --> 00:10:00,237
Commander Asha, get us
as close to the planet
189
00:10:00,242 --> 00:10:02,283
as you can without the ship being seen.
190
00:10:02,288 --> 00:10:04,372
- Aye, Captain.
- You have the conn, Rayner.
191
00:10:04,377 --> 00:10:05,891
Aye, Captain.
192
00:10:05,896 --> 00:10:07,406
Let's get to it.
193
00:10:10,605 --> 00:10:18,105
- Synced and corrected by Firefly -
- www.addic7ed.com -
194
00:11:47,175 --> 00:11:48,437
Come.
195
00:11:52,267 --> 00:11:54,046
Look. The whistling.
196
00:11:54,051 --> 00:11:56,135
It's a component of their language.
197
00:11:56,140 --> 00:11:58,851
Zora, can you play what they're
saying in Federation Standard?
198
00:12:00,019 --> 00:12:02,054
Hello? Is someone there?
199
00:12:02,059 --> 00:12:05,062
I am, my good compeer. Are you hurt?
200
00:12:05,567 --> 00:12:08,104
No, but I am very thirsty.
201
00:12:08,109 --> 00:12:10,153
There is water for you here.
202
00:12:10,158 --> 00:12:12,369
Why would they speak in whistles?
203
00:12:12,374 --> 00:12:14,110
They don't always.
204
00:12:14,115 --> 00:12:16,852
They have a phonetic language
for day-to-day interactions,
205
00:12:16,857 --> 00:12:18,232
but the whistle-speak
206
00:12:18,237 --> 00:12:20,377
lets them communicate
across great distances.
207
00:12:20,382 --> 00:12:21,957
It's not uncommon to find in cultures
208
00:12:21,962 --> 00:12:24,207
before communication technology evolves.
209
00:12:24,212 --> 00:12:26,857
You can learn so much about a society
210
00:12:26,862 --> 00:12:29,778
by the way the individuals
speak to one another.
211
00:12:29,783 --> 00:12:31,736
Like the Halem'nites.
212
00:12:33,177 --> 00:12:35,697
They don't have any terms
213
00:12:35,702 --> 00:12:38,856
to denote societal status or class.
214
00:12:38,861 --> 00:12:41,816
They recognize three
distinct gender identities,
215
00:12:41,821 --> 00:12:43,879
and they prize connection
with one another
216
00:12:43,884 --> 00:12:45,794
despite the hardships that they face.
217
00:12:45,799 --> 00:12:47,857
And look, look here,
218
00:12:47,862 --> 00:12:50,155
they have multiple words for pain,
219
00:12:50,860 --> 00:12:53,384
injury, hurt, dust.
220
00:12:53,889 --> 00:12:55,512
I feel like I'm back in Dr. T'Prasi's
221
00:12:55,517 --> 00:12:57,588
xenolinguistics seminar on Vulcan.
222
00:12:57,893 --> 00:13:00,517
Wow, you can take the "xeno"
out of the anthropologist,
223
00:13:00,522 --> 00:13:02,437
but you can't take
the anthropologist out...
224
00:13:03,873 --> 00:13:05,261
Huh. No, I lost it.
225
00:13:05,266 --> 00:13:06,897
Uh...
226
00:13:06,902 --> 00:13:09,221
We could really use you
at the Starfleet Academy.
227
00:13:09,226 --> 00:13:10,962
Well, don't tempt me.
228
00:13:11,467 --> 00:13:13,469
How is it going over there, by the way?
229
00:13:13,474 --> 00:13:16,167
Captain, we've loaded subcutaneous comms
230
00:13:16,172 --> 00:13:17,582
into the transport system.
231
00:13:17,587 --> 00:13:19,406
Ensign Tal's also been
playing with Starfleet's
232
00:13:19,410 --> 00:13:20,859
latest retinal tricorder mod.
233
00:13:20,864 --> 00:13:22,540
Should come in handy
if you need to be discreet.
234
00:13:22,544 --> 00:13:23,962
Thank you, Commander.
235
00:13:23,967 --> 00:13:27,018
We're good to go. Take us down.
236
00:13:36,502 --> 00:13:38,504
Let's activate retinal tricorders.
237
00:13:40,314 --> 00:13:43,386
Think Dr. Kreel could have
picked a more gigantic place
238
00:13:43,391 --> 00:13:44,619
to hide the clue?
239
00:13:45,424 --> 00:13:48,427
Guess that's why the Halem'nites
call it the High Summit.
240
00:13:49,558 --> 00:13:51,207
Must have known it'd be well-protected,
241
00:13:51,212 --> 00:13:53,815
since they believe they can
commune with their gods there.
242
00:13:59,041 --> 00:14:00,951
So, do you want to talk about it?
243
00:14:00,956 --> 00:14:02,610
- Hmm?
- The Academy?
244
00:14:02,615 --> 00:14:03,872
Oh, yeah.
245
00:14:03,877 --> 00:14:06,552
I just got a message
from my student today.
246
00:14:06,557 --> 00:14:08,820
Cadet Ross, she actually
served us drinks at
247
00:14:08,825 --> 00:14:11,240
- the Millennium Celebration.
- Yeah. Earnest, big smile?
248
00:14:11,245 --> 00:14:13,572
Yes. She's thinking
about leaving the Academy
249
00:14:13,577 --> 00:14:15,283
to take a position on a cargo vessel,
250
00:14:15,288 --> 00:14:17,712
and she wants to know
if I think she should do it.
251
00:14:17,717 --> 00:14:19,235
Mm.
252
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:21,398
- So what are you gonna say?
- I know.
253
00:14:21,803 --> 00:14:23,613
Stay? Don't go? I don't know, and...
254
00:14:23,618 --> 00:14:26,503
She wants to leave at all,
and she's not the first.
255
00:14:26,508 --> 00:14:28,270
We're not giving the cadets
what they need.
256
00:14:28,275 --> 00:14:29,675
I don't know what the problem is.
257
00:14:30,847 --> 00:14:32,396
The whistle-speak.
258
00:14:32,401 --> 00:14:34,607
The universal translator's got it.
259
00:14:35,412 --> 00:14:37,262
We've come here from afar.
260
00:14:38,367 --> 00:14:40,382
Let my voice call you home.
261
00:14:41,671 --> 00:14:44,139
We traveled from the dust.
262
00:14:45,919 --> 00:14:47,747
Come rest, you must.
263
00:14:49,022 --> 00:14:51,477
We journeyed from the storms.
264
00:14:53,021 --> 00:14:54,975
In the summit, you'll be warm.
265
00:14:54,980 --> 00:14:57,052
Sounds like they're going
where we're going.
266
00:15:01,980 --> 00:15:04,934
Hey. There you are. Got a minute?
267
00:15:04,939 --> 00:15:07,141
Yeah. Heading to Engineering.
How can I help?
268
00:15:07,146 --> 00:15:08,795
I wondered if you could put me in touch
269
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:10,419
with the ship's counselor
on the Locherer.
270
00:15:10,423 --> 00:15:11,951
When they find Moll and L'ak,
I want them to have
271
00:15:11,955 --> 00:15:13,943
a full background and
know they can use me
272
00:15:13,948 --> 00:15:15,236
as a resource for anything.
273
00:15:15,241 --> 00:15:16,342
I'm sure they've been briefed.
274
00:15:16,346 --> 00:15:18,295
- It's not the same.
- Book,
275
00:15:18,300 --> 00:15:20,976
you need to accept that there's
nothing for you to do right now.
276
00:15:20,981 --> 00:15:22,547
I can't just sit on my hands, Hugh.
277
00:15:22,552 --> 00:15:24,127
So find something to distract you.
278
00:15:24,132 --> 00:15:26,364
What's occupied your brain in the past?
279
00:15:26,369 --> 00:15:27,931
Focus on that.
280
00:15:27,936 --> 00:15:30,655
Recharge yourself so that you're
ready when you are needed.
281
00:15:31,460 --> 00:15:34,137
You ever get tired of
having all the answers?
282
00:15:34,142 --> 00:15:36,223
I'll check in with you later.
283
00:15:39,713 --> 00:15:41,946
Paul, I need your help with something.
284
00:15:42,751 --> 00:15:44,039
Can I pull you away?
285
00:15:44,444 --> 00:15:46,471
I'm looking to do a full
neural scan on myself,
286
00:15:46,476 --> 00:15:48,573
and I could use an assistant.
287
00:15:48,578 --> 00:15:50,271
A neural scan?
288
00:15:50,276 --> 00:15:51,663
Is everything all right?
289
00:15:51,668 --> 00:15:53,230
Yeah, yeah, yeah, everything's fine.
290
00:15:53,235 --> 00:15:54,366
We don't have a lot of data
291
00:15:54,371 --> 00:15:56,886
on the neurological aftereffects
of zhian'tara,
292
00:15:56,891 --> 00:15:59,715
- and this is a chance to gather some.
- Are you
293
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:02,149
- having aftereffects?
- No, no.
294
00:16:03,824 --> 00:16:05,516
- Maybe.
- Hugh,
295
00:16:05,521 --> 00:16:07,779
- are you sure you're okay?
- Yeah, of course.
296
00:16:08,484 --> 00:16:10,130
We need this data, and, uh,
297
00:16:10,135 --> 00:16:12,711
well, when was the last time
you and I got to work together?
298
00:16:13,516 --> 00:16:15,731
- Might be nice.
- Nothing as romantic
299
00:16:15,736 --> 00:16:17,707
as a neural scan.
300
00:16:17,712 --> 00:16:19,296
So, is that a yes?
301
00:16:20,101 --> 00:16:21,576
At your service.
302
00:16:21,581 --> 00:16:23,882
Great. I will, uh, prep everything,
303
00:16:23,887 --> 00:16:25,193
and we can start in the morning.
304
00:16:37,289 --> 00:16:40,348
Hello. Hello.
305
00:16:41,853 --> 00:16:43,411
Greetings, compeers.
306
00:16:44,816 --> 00:16:46,509
We heard your call.
307
00:16:46,514 --> 00:16:48,585
Sounds like you're headed
to the High Summit.
308
00:16:48,590 --> 00:16:52,607
Yes, we've been following the
beacon voice since the moonrise.
309
00:16:53,112 --> 00:16:55,566
We g-got lost. May we join you?
310
00:16:55,571 --> 00:16:58,395
Of course. We are nearly there.
311
00:17:05,607 --> 00:17:08,628
Apologies.
312
00:17:09,572 --> 00:17:11,930
I was clearing dust from an orchard
313
00:17:11,935 --> 00:17:14,204
and lost my way in the Dry Lands.
314
00:17:18,764 --> 00:17:20,765
The Dry Lands.
315
00:17:20,770 --> 00:17:22,767
Were you out there very long?
316
00:17:22,772 --> 00:17:25,205
I breathed dust for an entire night
317
00:17:25,210 --> 00:17:28,495
before the sun rose and my
compeers could rescue me.
318
00:17:28,500 --> 00:17:30,471
Sounds frightening.
319
00:17:30,476 --> 00:17:31,733
I suppose it is why
320
00:17:31,738 --> 00:17:33,478
they encourage elders
321
00:17:33,483 --> 00:17:36,955
not to take turns at
the edge of the storms.
322
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:40,089
But i-if I did not clear the dust,
323
00:17:40,094 --> 00:17:42,336
another would need to take my place.
324
00:17:44,180 --> 00:17:46,443
- Where are you coming from?
- Uh...
325
00:17:46,448 --> 00:17:48,571
we came to worship at the High Summit.
326
00:17:48,576 --> 00:17:51,579
Ah, you wish to pray for rain.
327
00:17:51,584 --> 00:17:54,248
We have been without it for too long.
328
00:17:54,953 --> 00:17:58,238
Do any of the compeers go
inside the summit to pray?
329
00:17:58,243 --> 00:18:01,210
Only the chosen devout
may enter the temple.
330
00:18:01,215 --> 00:18:03,734
- Surely you know that.
- Of course,
331
00:18:04,039 --> 00:18:06,136
but... being from
332
00:18:06,141 --> 00:18:08,291
the east, the distance is far.
333
00:18:08,296 --> 00:18:09,871
Bless you, dear child,
334
00:18:10,276 --> 00:18:12,395
you've never seen
the High Summit before.
335
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:14,323
No, no, we never have.
336
00:18:15,128 --> 00:18:17,387
But for years we have longed to visit.
337
00:18:19,133 --> 00:18:20,521
The day is here.
338
00:18:23,232 --> 00:18:25,682
Compeers, you've arrived.
339
00:18:25,687 --> 00:18:27,136
I'm Ravah.
340
00:18:27,141 --> 00:18:29,312
It's my voice that's been
beckoning you home.
341
00:18:29,317 --> 00:18:32,054
Please come with me. I have
water and food ahead.
342
00:18:35,671 --> 00:18:37,364
She's having trouble breathing.
343
00:18:37,369 --> 00:18:39,496
The Healing Grove, quickly.
344
00:18:46,335 --> 00:18:48,572
Her medicine. I saw her inhaling it
345
00:18:48,577 --> 00:18:50,578
- when we were walking.
- Maybe it's in her pack.
346
00:18:55,039 --> 00:18:57,080
Her lungs are full of dust.
347
00:18:57,085 --> 00:18:59,765
A sonic percussion wave
would easily dislodge this.
348
00:18:59,770 --> 00:19:01,306
She doesn't have to die from this.
349
00:19:01,311 --> 00:19:02,791
We can't break the Prime Directive.
350
00:19:02,796 --> 00:19:04,324
No, I know, I know, I know.
351
00:19:06,150 --> 00:19:07,704
They're not finding her medicine.
352
00:19:07,709 --> 00:19:09,511
Okay. Help me get her on her side.
353
00:19:13,700 --> 00:19:15,436
There they are, Father.
354
00:19:15,441 --> 00:19:17,647
Do not stop, compeer.
You're keeping her alive.
355
00:19:18,923 --> 00:19:20,319
Give these out.
356
00:19:20,324 --> 00:19:21,621
One to each.
357
00:19:22,926 --> 00:19:24,214
Quickly.
358
00:19:24,219 --> 00:19:25,886
Form a tight circle around her.
359
00:19:30,268 --> 00:19:33,106
Stay strong, my good compeer.
360
00:20:20,575 --> 00:20:21,924
You must forgive me.
361
00:20:23,500 --> 00:20:25,079
I did not have time to warn you
362
00:20:25,084 --> 00:20:26,899
of the intensity of the sound cure.
363
00:20:27,604 --> 00:20:30,163
It's amazing that you
found a cure at all.
364
00:20:30,168 --> 00:20:31,765
Really impressive.
365
00:20:33,919 --> 00:20:35,089
Hey, you're awake.
366
00:20:36,225 --> 00:20:37,718
Ravah here's been telling me
367
00:20:37,723 --> 00:20:39,259
all about the High Summit.
368
00:20:40,064 --> 00:20:41,574
I, too, was born far away.
369
00:20:41,579 --> 00:20:43,510
My father brought me here
after my mother died
370
00:20:43,515 --> 00:20:44,791
and he became priest of the summit.
371
00:20:44,795 --> 00:20:46,321
Let her regain her strength, Ravah.
372
00:20:46,325 --> 00:20:47,631
But they were on the front lines.
373
00:20:47,635 --> 00:20:49,036
When my turn comes, I'll clear that dust
374
00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:50,641
twice as fast as anyone else.
375
00:20:50,646 --> 00:20:51,877
Ravah,
376
00:20:51,882 --> 00:20:53,792
the most important thing
is to work in harmony
377
00:20:53,797 --> 00:20:55,402
with the rest of your compeers.
378
00:20:55,407 --> 00:20:57,022
Of course you're right, Father.
379
00:20:57,921 --> 00:21:00,219
But it's clear you're very strong.
380
00:21:00,224 --> 00:21:02,121
We're eager to enter the High Summit,
381
00:21:02,826 --> 00:21:04,375
to give thanks to the gods.
382
00:21:04,380 --> 00:21:07,652
The gods do not require you to
enter the temple to give thanks.
383
00:21:07,657 --> 00:21:09,623
But you could get in if you wanted to.
384
00:21:09,628 --> 00:21:12,452
You just have to complete the
Journey of the Mother Compeer.
385
00:21:12,457 --> 00:21:14,620
- Ravah, please.
- Journey of the Mother Compeer?
386
00:21:14,625 --> 00:21:16,901
It's a race and a test
of devotion because
387
00:21:16,906 --> 00:21:19,185
it's quite grueling. Everyone
says that we're due because
388
00:21:19,190 --> 00:21:20,740
watching the race makes the gods happy,
389
00:21:20,744 --> 00:21:22,567
and we've been without rain for so long.
390
00:21:22,572 --> 00:21:25,483
Only the one who wins is worthy
of entering the temple.
391
00:21:25,488 --> 00:21:26,919
There, they're close to the gods
392
00:21:26,924 --> 00:21:28,399
and they can ask for their blessing.
393
00:21:28,404 --> 00:21:30,139
Let's discuss another time, Ravah.
394
00:21:30,144 --> 00:21:31,880
Our compeers only just arrived.
395
00:21:31,885 --> 00:21:33,100
But we wish to show our devotion
396
00:21:33,104 --> 00:21:34,379
in whatever way we can.
397
00:21:34,384 --> 00:21:35,654
And this is perfect.
398
00:21:35,659 --> 00:21:36,698
If you make the request,
399
00:21:36,703 --> 00:21:38,204
we could do it tomorrow morning.
400
00:21:38,209 --> 00:21:39,484
Isn't that right, Father?
401
00:21:39,489 --> 00:21:41,686
One just has to make the
request, that's how it works.
402
00:21:41,691 --> 00:21:42,691
Hmm.
403
00:21:42,696 --> 00:21:44,237
Then I make the request.
404
00:21:45,812 --> 00:21:48,633
Nothing's more important to us
than entering that summit.
405
00:22:24,211 --> 00:22:25,251
Oh.
406
00:22:25,256 --> 00:22:26,879
Good morning, compeers.
407
00:22:27,784 --> 00:22:29,355
Are there any messages you'd like me
408
00:22:29,360 --> 00:22:31,257
to bring to the gods when I see them?
409
00:22:31,262 --> 00:22:32,737
- You're running today?
- Mm.
410
00:22:32,742 --> 00:22:36,044
You've inspired me, as
you've inspired the others.
411
00:22:36,049 --> 00:22:38,020
The difficulty of the
Journey is legendary.
412
00:22:38,025 --> 00:22:39,874
Most don't even finish.
413
00:22:39,879 --> 00:22:40,959
Ravah,
414
00:22:41,664 --> 00:22:42,964
may I have a word?
415
00:22:42,969 --> 00:22:45,011
No, Father, I'm getting ready.
416
00:22:46,016 --> 00:22:48,044
You are too young to take the Journey.
417
00:22:49,349 --> 00:22:51,435
I'm stronger than you think I am.
418
00:22:53,123 --> 00:22:54,660
You're wearing that today?
419
00:22:57,210 --> 00:22:58,908
I wish for Mother to watch over me.
420
00:23:01,784 --> 00:23:04,346
Ravah, I promised her that...
421
00:23:04,351 --> 00:23:05,770
You would keep me a child forever?
422
00:23:05,775 --> 00:23:07,406
No. That I would protect you.
423
00:23:08,211 --> 00:23:09,757
I've grown, Father.
424
00:23:10,462 --> 00:23:12,028
I'm devoted. You must see that.
425
00:23:12,033 --> 00:23:14,909
Excuse me, compeer,
tradition demands we begin
426
00:23:14,914 --> 00:23:16,332
the preparations.
427
00:23:16,337 --> 00:23:17,544
As you wish.
428
00:23:25,859 --> 00:23:27,901
You know, I-I have a student, um...
429
00:23:27,906 --> 00:23:29,177
back East.
430
00:23:30,582 --> 00:23:32,118
She reminds me a lot of you.
431
00:23:32,123 --> 00:23:35,408
She just wants to get out there
and do, as fast as she can.
432
00:23:35,413 --> 00:23:36,984
It can be hard to even...
433
00:23:37,889 --> 00:23:40,174
just as a teacher, to step back.
434
00:23:41,593 --> 00:23:44,183
I can only imagine what it
would be like as a parent.
435
00:23:45,288 --> 00:23:47,159
My father is a great man.
436
00:23:47,164 --> 00:23:49,736
And I want to show him
that I can be great, too.
437
00:23:51,441 --> 00:23:54,132
Compeer, uh, may I have a moment?
438
00:23:56,633 --> 00:23:59,358
We're alone, Discovery.
We don't have much time.
439
00:23:59,363 --> 00:24:00,651
We'll talk fast, then.
440
00:24:00,656 --> 00:24:02,043
Ensign Tal chased down a hunch
441
00:24:02,048 --> 00:24:03,741
and found something interesting.
442
00:24:03,746 --> 00:24:06,570
Uh, I did a historical regression
443
00:24:06,575 --> 00:24:08,423
of Halem'no's weather patterns,
444
00:24:08,428 --> 00:24:09,928
and the data indicated that
445
00:24:09,933 --> 00:24:12,240
there might have been other
weather towers in the past.
446
00:24:12,245 --> 00:24:13,634
We sent down a team of DOTs
447
00:24:13,638 --> 00:24:15,113
into the dust storm to check it out.
448
00:24:15,118 --> 00:24:17,190
- They found four more towers.
- Yeah.
449
00:24:18,395 --> 00:24:20,566
Over time, the others failed.
450
00:24:20,571 --> 00:24:23,495
Uh, their energy-distribution
matrices fell out of alignment,
451
00:24:23,500 --> 00:24:26,154
and that's the same thing that's
happening to the High Summit.
452
00:24:26,159 --> 00:24:28,127
That's what's causing the
energy field that's stopping us
453
00:24:28,131 --> 00:24:29,618
from beaming you inside for the clue.
454
00:24:29,623 --> 00:24:31,116
Okay, what's the solve?
455
00:24:31,121 --> 00:24:33,379
All of the towers have
an auxiliary control panel
456
00:24:33,384 --> 00:24:34,441
hidden nearby.
457
00:24:34,446 --> 00:24:36,382
If you can find the one
near the High Summit,
458
00:24:36,387 --> 00:24:38,299
it should be easy enough
to reset any of the components
459
00:24:38,303 --> 00:24:39,734
that have failed over time.
460
00:24:39,739 --> 00:24:41,344
Adira, were there settlements
461
00:24:41,349 --> 00:24:42,750
around any of the other weather towers?
462
00:24:42,754 --> 00:24:44,346
At all of them, in fact.
463
00:24:44,351 --> 00:24:46,131
They were destroyed
when the towers failed.
464
00:24:46,136 --> 00:24:48,647
So, if we don't fix this one,
everyone here will die.
465
00:24:49,152 --> 00:24:50,745
Thank you, Discovery.
466
00:24:51,950 --> 00:24:54,030
One mission just became two.
467
00:24:55,035 --> 00:24:58,556
Well, we've checked
for biological, chemical,
468
00:24:58,561 --> 00:25:00,998
and genetic anomalies, and, um,
469
00:25:01,003 --> 00:25:04,436
turns out you have a perfectly typical,
470
00:25:04,441 --> 00:25:07,543
healthy and rather handsome
471
00:25:07,548 --> 00:25:08,762
human brain.
472
00:25:09,167 --> 00:25:12,370
So, no lasting neurological effects
473
00:25:12,375 --> 00:25:14,333
of zhian'tara whatsoever?
474
00:25:14,338 --> 00:25:15,361
None.
475
00:25:23,303 --> 00:25:25,515
There's something you're not saying.
476
00:25:27,190 --> 00:25:28,695
It's just, I was...
477
00:25:28,700 --> 00:25:30,610
hoping these scans would...
478
00:25:30,615 --> 00:25:32,143
give me an answer.
479
00:25:32,948 --> 00:25:36,021
You know, a physiological cause
for what I'm feeling, and...
480
00:25:37,126 --> 00:25:39,545
then I'd understand,
then I could talk about it.
481
00:25:39,550 --> 00:25:40,920
I don't understand.
482
00:25:40,925 --> 00:25:42,578
Are you feeling sick, or... ?
483
00:25:42,583 --> 00:25:44,071
No. Uh...
484
00:25:44,976 --> 00:25:46,513
the opposite.
485
00:25:48,659 --> 00:25:50,196
Ever since Trill, I've...
486
00:25:51,501 --> 00:25:54,087
felt more connected, more, um...
487
00:25:55,392 --> 00:25:57,028
attuned
488
00:25:57,033 --> 00:25:59,257
to something greater than myself.
489
00:26:01,515 --> 00:26:03,100
Greater than all of us.
490
00:26:04,501 --> 00:26:08,039
But if there's no scientific
reason for it, then...
491
00:26:08,044 --> 00:26:11,438
So it's a... spiritual thing?
492
00:26:14,424 --> 00:26:16,925
Hey, what matters most
is that you're okay.
493
00:26:16,930 --> 00:26:18,584
The scans would have picked up anything
494
00:26:18,589 --> 00:26:20,107
with health implications.
495
00:26:20,112 --> 00:26:23,223
So, in lieu of that, I say
496
00:26:23,228 --> 00:26:24,922
why don't you just enjoy it?
497
00:26:26,523 --> 00:26:27,567
Really?
498
00:26:28,425 --> 00:26:31,723
The human brain, with
its billions of neurons,
499
00:26:31,728 --> 00:26:34,004
each with thousands
of connection points,
500
00:26:34,009 --> 00:26:36,295
is one of the most complex things
501
00:26:36,300 --> 00:26:37,383
in the known universe.
502
00:26:37,388 --> 00:26:38,907
So...
503
00:26:39,912 --> 00:26:41,462
enjoy it.
504
00:26:42,567 --> 00:26:43,829
Right.
505
00:26:56,084 --> 00:26:59,601
The race is about to begin.
Are you not happy, compeer?
506
00:26:59,606 --> 00:27:01,360
Are you not enjoying today?
507
00:27:02,265 --> 00:27:05,272
I was thinking of the last time
there was a Journey.
508
00:27:05,677 --> 00:27:06,803
I ran.
509
00:27:06,808 --> 00:27:08,906
As did my friend Vohrahli.
510
00:27:09,811 --> 00:27:11,678
She was so fast.
511
00:27:11,683 --> 00:27:14,072
Of course she won.
512
00:27:14,077 --> 00:27:16,135
It was long ago.
513
00:27:16,140 --> 00:27:18,467
I am thinking about Vohrahli
514
00:27:18,472 --> 00:27:21,818
and what we might look like
if we could be wrinkled,
515
00:27:21,823 --> 00:27:24,447
old elders together.
516
00:27:24,452 --> 00:27:26,802
You would look beautiful.
517
00:27:27,607 --> 00:27:31,132
You know, you need not
go to the High Summit
518
00:27:31,137 --> 00:27:32,699
to be with the gods.
519
00:27:32,704 --> 00:27:35,528
They are with us when
we do good for one another,
520
00:27:35,533 --> 00:27:37,878
when we love, when we save each other,
521
00:27:37,883 --> 00:27:39,402
as you saved me.
522
00:27:40,507 --> 00:27:43,036
You don't need to run to see them.
523
00:27:43,541 --> 00:27:44,972
I know, I...
524
00:27:44,977 --> 00:27:47,575
It's something that I've
dreamed of my whole life.
525
00:27:48,937 --> 00:27:50,478
I understand then,
526
00:27:50,483 --> 00:27:52,517
and I shall pray for you.
527
00:27:59,774 --> 00:28:01,320
Everything all right?
528
00:28:02,125 --> 00:28:03,512
I think so.
529
00:28:03,517 --> 00:28:05,371
My good and blessed compeers,
530
00:28:06,476 --> 00:28:08,487
it is our great fortune to bear witness
531
00:28:08,492 --> 00:28:10,720
to the Journey of the
Mother Compeer today.
532
00:28:12,025 --> 00:28:14,567
Legend tells us that, in ancient times,
533
00:28:15,072 --> 00:28:17,396
all of Halem'no was fertile and gentle,
534
00:28:17,401 --> 00:28:20,268
but even in such a land of
plenty, the Halem'nites warred
535
00:28:20,273 --> 00:28:23,097
against each other and
lost the favor of the gods.
536
00:28:23,602 --> 00:28:26,013
To punish us, they brought
the dust storms.
537
00:28:26,018 --> 00:28:28,407
We would have ended our days
538
00:28:28,412 --> 00:28:31,714
in thirst and dust
if the Great Mother Compeer
539
00:28:31,719 --> 00:28:34,152
hadn't shown the gods our true selves.
540
00:28:34,757 --> 00:28:36,197
She ventured out into
541
00:28:36,202 --> 00:28:38,504
the storms and traveled
far to find water
542
00:28:38,509 --> 00:28:40,715
for her children. As she
journeyed back with it,
543
00:28:41,020 --> 00:28:42,899
her lungs filled with dust.
544
00:28:42,904 --> 00:28:44,845
Her thirst was terrible,
545
00:28:44,850 --> 00:28:47,178
and yet she didn't drink a single drop.
546
00:28:47,182 --> 00:28:49,254
She reached her children and gave them
547
00:28:49,259 --> 00:28:51,430
the life-giving water. She saved them,
548
00:28:51,435 --> 00:28:53,028
then breathed her last.
549
00:28:53,833 --> 00:28:57,418
The gods were so moved by her sacrifice,
550
00:28:57,423 --> 00:28:59,307
they brought back the rains.
551
00:28:59,312 --> 00:29:01,044
Today, as you journey around
552
00:29:01,049 --> 00:29:03,825
the High Summit
bearing a terrible thirst,
553
00:29:03,830 --> 00:29:06,096
you, too, will endure this test.
554
00:29:06,101 --> 00:29:09,104
May you remind the gods
of the Mother Compeer,
555
00:29:09,109 --> 00:29:12,138
of her devotion, our devotion,
556
00:29:12,143 --> 00:29:13,835
and earn their merciful rain.
557
00:29:17,652 --> 00:29:19,432
A courageous attempt, compeers,
558
00:29:19,437 --> 00:29:20,982
but you are now disqualified.
559
00:29:22,287 --> 00:29:23,331
Begin.
560
00:29:23,336 --> 00:29:24,798
Try not to fall behind.
561
00:29:24,803 --> 00:29:26,943
We have to get that clue.
562
00:29:57,549 --> 00:29:59,085
Just one minute.
563
00:29:59,490 --> 00:30:00,726
I just need a minute.
564
00:30:03,202 --> 00:30:06,218
Body in motion remains in motion.
565
00:30:07,833 --> 00:30:10,483
They've all got to get water
at some point, right?
566
00:30:10,488 --> 00:30:12,311
And we have endurance, we have...
567
00:30:12,716 --> 00:30:13,816
Starfleet training.
568
00:30:13,821 --> 00:30:15,828
Yeah, keep telling yourself that.
569
00:30:15,833 --> 00:30:17,994
Let's go. We're gonna fall behind.
570
00:30:17,999 --> 00:30:20,206
A body in motion...
571
00:30:20,211 --> 00:30:22,217
will remain in motion.
572
00:30:28,923 --> 00:30:31,330
Body in motion stays in motion.
573
00:30:31,335 --> 00:30:33,384
Wait, wait, what's that?
574
00:30:33,989 --> 00:30:35,812
Body at rest.
575
00:30:35,817 --> 00:30:37,841
Look at the moss on the trees.
576
00:30:38,146 --> 00:30:40,008
Most of it's blue, but
some of it's yellow.
577
00:30:40,013 --> 00:30:42,019
That's a genetic mutation.
578
00:30:42,724 --> 00:30:44,591
If a control panel were 800 years old,
579
00:30:44,596 --> 00:30:47,115
it would leak radiation, right?
580
00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:48,634
And if it is leaking radiation,
581
00:30:48,639 --> 00:30:50,698
it would be causing mutations.
582
00:30:52,225 --> 00:30:54,815
If I'm right, then this moss
would lead to a control panel.
583
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:56,765
And if you're wrong?
584
00:30:58,970 --> 00:31:01,011
Then one of us still needs
to win this race
585
00:31:01,016 --> 00:31:02,639
and get that clue.
586
00:31:02,644 --> 00:31:03,654
Go.
587
00:31:04,059 --> 00:31:06,321
- Really?
- Go chase your moss.
588
00:31:06,726 --> 00:31:08,932
I'm the queen of endurance.
589
00:31:08,937 --> 00:31:12,153
- Body in motion...
- Remains in motion.
590
00:31:15,074 --> 00:31:16,341
I'm out.
591
00:31:46,584 --> 00:31:47,941
No.
592
00:31:47,946 --> 00:31:50,170
No, don't give up now, compeer.
593
00:31:50,175 --> 00:31:51,954
It's just the two of us left,
594
00:31:52,459 --> 00:31:53,990
and I want some real competition.
595
00:31:53,995 --> 00:31:55,675
You're a little shit, you know that?
596
00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:57,416
I can't hear you, I'm too far ahead.
597
00:31:57,421 --> 00:31:59,200
Don't think I'm not gonna beat you.
598
00:31:59,205 --> 00:32:00,723
Okay?
599
00:32:00,728 --> 00:32:02,400
Get over here. Come here.
600
00:32:36,325 --> 00:32:38,540
Discovery, I've found
the tower control panel.
601
00:32:39,345 --> 00:32:40,930
Scanning it now.
602
00:32:46,217 --> 00:32:49,263
This tech requires periodic maintenance.
603
00:32:49,268 --> 00:32:51,296
Without that, it was bound
to fail eventually.
604
00:32:51,301 --> 00:32:52,812
So how do I fix it?
605
00:32:55,509 --> 00:32:58,868
Uh, you'll need to rebuild
the motherboard,
606
00:32:58,873 --> 00:33:01,131
uh, without shutting
it down by accident.
607
00:33:01,136 --> 00:33:03,999
No pressure. Tell me what to do.
608
00:33:04,004 --> 00:33:07,268
Uh, do you see a small red chip
609
00:33:07,273 --> 00:33:08,748
on the far left-hand side?
610
00:33:08,753 --> 00:33:10,489
Yes. I see a lot of them.
611
00:33:10,494 --> 00:33:12,500
Sorry, in the top left corner.
612
00:33:12,505 --> 00:33:15,174
We'll start by rerouting that
to the override system.
613
00:33:17,896 --> 00:33:19,477
We're almost there.
614
00:33:21,644 --> 00:33:22,858
Stop.
615
00:33:24,063 --> 00:33:26,635
Near the end of the
Mother Compeer's Journey,
616
00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:28,263
the gods tempted her to drink.
617
00:33:28,968 --> 00:33:30,504
So, our final two racers
618
00:33:30,509 --> 00:33:31,984
must now complete the Journey
619
00:33:31,989 --> 00:33:33,517
while carrying temptation.
620
00:34:09,766 --> 00:34:11,267
No!
621
00:34:16,907 --> 00:34:19,218
Spilling your water
is a disqualification, Ravah.
622
00:34:19,223 --> 00:34:20,515
Please, child,
623
00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:22,392
come, slake your thirst.
624
00:34:23,462 --> 00:34:26,242
A racer cannot complete the
journey with an empty bowl.
625
00:34:26,247 --> 00:34:28,846
It was a noble effort, Ravah.
626
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:36,680
Come, Ravah.
627
00:34:39,008 --> 00:34:40,230
Come.
628
00:34:40,235 --> 00:34:41,315
Ravah.
629
00:34:45,283 --> 00:34:48,334
I thought you were gonna
give me a little competition.
630
00:34:48,339 --> 00:34:49,841
It's over.
631
00:34:55,820 --> 00:34:57,073
Come on.
632
00:34:57,078 --> 00:34:58,945
Come on. Up.
633
00:34:58,950 --> 00:35:00,163
Come on.
634
00:35:00,168 --> 00:35:01,231
Up.
635
00:35:05,330 --> 00:35:07,170
Let's go meet the gods together.
636
00:35:23,161 --> 00:35:25,184
Okay, that wasn't it.
637
00:35:25,189 --> 00:35:26,990
I'm gonna try another isolinear chip.
638
00:35:28,095 --> 00:35:30,637
Sir, maybe we should get
someone with more experience
639
00:35:30,642 --> 00:35:32,147
to help support the captain.
640
00:35:32,152 --> 00:35:34,415
You're the one who wanted
to be on the bridge.
641
00:35:34,420 --> 00:35:36,412
- I know, um, but...
- But nothing.
642
00:35:36,417 --> 00:35:38,389
I wouldn't have agreed if I
thought you couldn't handle it.
643
00:35:38,393 --> 00:35:39,765
You've been second-guessing yourself
644
00:35:39,769 --> 00:35:41,374
since that time bug came on board.
645
00:35:41,779 --> 00:35:43,015
That's not on you.
646
00:35:43,020 --> 00:35:44,061
Understood?
647
00:35:46,766 --> 00:35:49,003
Got it. Okay, Ensign, what's next?
648
00:35:49,008 --> 00:35:52,295
Last step, right? Bring it home.
649
00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:57,146
Okay.
650
00:35:57,151 --> 00:35:59,584
Uh, Captain, I need you to bypass
651
00:35:59,589 --> 00:36:01,442
the auxiliary power circuit.
652
00:36:01,447 --> 00:36:03,767
- Bypass?
- Yank it out, Captain.
653
00:36:06,839 --> 00:36:08,398
Come on, come on.
654
00:36:12,240 --> 00:36:13,715
We got lights.
655
00:36:13,720 --> 00:36:15,282
Yes.
656
00:36:15,287 --> 00:36:17,958
Okay, I will have you beaming
into the tower in no time.
657
00:36:17,963 --> 00:36:19,465
Nice work, Ensign.
658
00:36:21,266 --> 00:36:23,137
Tilly, we solved the interference issue.
659
00:36:23,142 --> 00:36:25,418
- Where are you now?
- I'm in the temple.
660
00:36:25,423 --> 00:36:26,693
You won the race?
661
00:36:26,698 --> 00:36:28,904
Ravah and I tied. We're both here.
662
00:36:28,909 --> 00:36:31,828
Problem is, I don't see
the clue anywhere.
663
00:36:31,833 --> 00:36:33,696
Well, we just got
the control panel back on line,
664
00:36:33,700 --> 00:36:34,701
so we'll be able to transport
665
00:36:34,705 --> 00:36:36,003
a team over in just a few minutes.
666
00:36:36,007 --> 00:36:37,177
It is time.
667
00:36:37,882 --> 00:36:39,781
Hang on. Ohvahz is speaking.
668
00:36:49,099 --> 00:36:50,387
Don't be sad, Father.
669
00:36:51,492 --> 00:36:53,707
We'll speak to the gods.
We'll bring the rain.
670
00:36:53,712 --> 00:36:56,294
And we are so grateful to you both.
671
00:36:58,012 --> 00:36:59,286
Your sacrifice
672
00:36:59,700 --> 00:37:02,263
will bless Halem'no for
many seasons to come.
673
00:37:02,268 --> 00:37:03,865
Sacrifice?
674
00:37:03,870 --> 00:37:05,380
Take this, Father.
675
00:37:05,385 --> 00:37:07,482
I won't need it to remember
Mother anymore.
676
00:37:07,487 --> 00:37:09,350
Tilly, get out of there now.
677
00:37:11,021 --> 00:37:12,574
Uh, no, uh, Ohvahz.
678
00:37:13,079 --> 00:37:15,673
Wait. Wait. Wait,
wait, wait, wait. Wait.
679
00:37:16,878 --> 00:37:18,079
Ohvahz!
680
00:37:18,084 --> 00:37:19,559
Discovery, can you beam her out?
681
00:37:19,564 --> 00:37:21,100
We can't get a lock, Captain.
682
00:37:21,105 --> 00:37:22,349
Ohvahz!
683
00:37:47,954 --> 00:37:49,129
Discovery, status report.
684
00:37:49,134 --> 00:37:51,040
Have you been able to get
a lock on Lieutenant Tilly?
685
00:37:51,044 --> 00:37:52,414
Nothing's working, Captain.
686
00:37:52,419 --> 00:37:54,120
Something's scrambling my signal.
687
00:37:54,125 --> 00:37:55,238
I think I know why.
688
00:37:55,243 --> 00:37:57,066
These walls are solid tritanium.
689
00:37:57,071 --> 00:37:59,560
Which is too dense
for a transport lock. Damn it.
690
00:37:59,565 --> 00:38:01,502
If it's not one thing, it's
another with this place.
691
00:38:01,506 --> 00:38:03,672
Okay, it looks like you're
in the vacuum chamber.
692
00:38:03,677 --> 00:38:05,413
Chemicals come up that center column
693
00:38:05,418 --> 00:38:07,286
and mix with air and whatnot
from the room above
694
00:38:07,290 --> 00:38:09,522
and get shot into the atmosphere
to make it rain.
695
00:38:09,527 --> 00:38:11,319
And seeing that it's a vacuum chamber,
696
00:38:11,324 --> 00:38:13,060
I'm guessing that, in the process,
697
00:38:13,065 --> 00:38:14,440
it sucks all the air out of there.
698
00:38:14,445 --> 00:38:16,106
Makes sense the room's
made of tritanium.
699
00:38:16,111 --> 00:38:17,399
If it weren't, it'd crumple.
700
00:38:17,404 --> 00:38:19,693
Oh, good, at least we won't get smushed.
701
00:38:19,698 --> 00:38:21,265
Who are you speaking to?
702
00:38:22,135 --> 00:38:24,680
Oh, um, just praying to the gods.
703
00:38:24,685 --> 00:38:26,900
That's, that's good. They'll be pleased.
704
00:38:43,735 --> 00:38:45,388
The air.
705
00:38:45,393 --> 00:38:47,477
No, we need more time. Uh...
706
00:38:47,482 --> 00:38:49,062
The gods are coming.
707
00:38:49,067 --> 00:38:51,570
They'll take our breath and
replace it with their own.
708
00:38:53,540 --> 00:38:55,076
You look frightened, compeer.
709
00:38:55,081 --> 00:38:57,941
- Are you frightened?
- No, I'm not frightened. Um...
710
00:38:58,824 --> 00:39:00,047
I'm sad.
711
00:39:02,432 --> 00:39:04,520
You wouldn't be here
if it weren't for me.
712
00:39:04,525 --> 00:39:06,087
I'm grateful.
713
00:39:06,092 --> 00:39:07,768
I'm going to see the gods.
714
00:39:08,673 --> 00:39:11,801
Come, the serenity wall is here.
715
00:39:11,806 --> 00:39:14,269
We'll pray together, you
won't be frightened anymore.
716
00:39:14,774 --> 00:39:16,632
Tilly, I'm coming to get you.
717
00:39:16,637 --> 00:39:18,330
Discovery, if you cannot beam her out,
718
00:39:18,335 --> 00:39:20,871
beam me in, as close to
that chamber as possible.
719
00:39:20,876 --> 00:39:22,864
Okay, there's a control
room right next to it.
720
00:39:22,869 --> 00:39:25,093
Sir, I'm picking up
a life sign in there.
721
00:39:25,098 --> 00:39:26,708
Okay, that has to be Ohvahz.
722
00:39:27,513 --> 00:39:28,918
We have to wait for him to leave.
723
00:39:28,923 --> 00:39:31,625
- No, you beam me in now.
- You'd be revealing yourself
724
00:39:31,630 --> 00:39:34,289
- to a pre-warp civilization.
- I'm aware.
725
00:39:34,294 --> 00:39:36,735
We're gonna have to answer for
the Prime Directive violation.
726
00:39:36,740 --> 00:39:39,281
And we will. We are not
letting them die for no reason.
727
00:39:39,286 --> 00:39:41,180
If the Halem'nites can't
maintain this technology,
728
00:39:41,184 --> 00:39:42,455
they're gonna get wiped
out sooner or later.
729
00:39:42,459 --> 00:39:44,356
Either way, we have to do this.
730
00:39:44,361 --> 00:39:46,445
Aye, Captain. Stand by.
731
00:39:47,350 --> 00:39:49,626
These symbols here, what do they mean?
732
00:39:50,331 --> 00:39:52,154
They're numbers to help us recall
733
00:39:52,159 --> 00:39:53,800
the five serenity prayers.
734
00:39:53,805 --> 00:39:57,413
If we say them, we'll find
peace before we pass.
735
00:39:58,518 --> 00:39:59,762
It's foretold.
736
00:39:59,767 --> 00:40:02,052
I don't see any numbers.
737
00:40:02,557 --> 00:40:04,233
I thought you were a teacher.
738
00:40:06,060 --> 00:40:07,422
I am.
739
00:40:07,427 --> 00:40:10,251
They don't teach Ancient
Halem'nese in the East?
740
00:40:18,182 --> 00:40:19,392
One.
741
00:40:24,014 --> 00:40:25,224
Two.
742
00:40:33,061 --> 00:40:34,315
Three.
743
00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:36,601
We're in the third summit.
744
00:40:39,359 --> 00:40:40,626
Four.
745
00:40:44,290 --> 00:40:46,779
- Five.
- I've seen this symbol before.
746
00:40:46,784 --> 00:40:49,334
To represent each of
the summits there once were.
747
00:40:49,339 --> 00:40:51,415
The gods destroyed all the others.
748
00:40:52,181 --> 00:40:53,796
But left only ours.
749
00:40:56,150 --> 00:40:57,822
That's why we must sacrifice.
750
00:40:59,327 --> 00:41:01,856
To show them that we are
worthy of their gift.
751
00:41:13,167 --> 00:41:16,457
I'm sorry, compeer.
752
00:41:16,462 --> 00:41:17,507
Oh.
753
00:41:18,533 --> 00:41:20,082
It's okay to be scared.
754
00:41:20,087 --> 00:41:21,676
I don't want to die.
755
00:41:22,281 --> 00:41:25,140
I only took the Journey to make
my father proud, but now...
756
00:41:27,281 --> 00:41:28,525
Come here.
757
00:41:28,530 --> 00:41:30,289
Yeah, it's okay.
758
00:41:30,794 --> 00:41:32,892
It's okay. Come here.
759
00:41:38,379 --> 00:41:40,974
Maybe the gods will figure out
a way to spare us.
760
00:41:46,523 --> 00:41:49,809
I've failed you, my heart's compeer.
761
00:41:52,271 --> 00:41:55,344
I wanted to forbid our child
from taking the Journey.
762
00:41:55,949 --> 00:41:57,233
But how could I?
763
00:41:58,038 --> 00:41:59,469
How could I be selfish
764
00:41:59,474 --> 00:42:01,542
when all our people suffer
for each other?
765
00:42:03,765 --> 00:42:04,823
What?
766
00:42:04,828 --> 00:42:06,651
You? How did you...
767
00:42:06,656 --> 00:42:07,782
Where did you come from?
768
00:42:07,787 --> 00:42:09,049
I need you to open this door.
769
00:42:09,654 --> 00:42:10,824
You're not really here,
770
00:42:10,829 --> 00:42:13,566
- vision.
- I am here. Listen to me.
771
00:42:13,571 --> 00:42:16,299
You have to open this door.
772
00:42:16,304 --> 00:42:18,485
- Ravah is going to see the gods.
- My friend is in there.
773
00:42:18,489 --> 00:42:20,126
- You feel grief because you are selfish.
- She doesn't want to die
774
00:42:20,130 --> 00:42:21,691
and she doesn't need to die.
775
00:42:21,696 --> 00:42:23,263
Ravah doesn't need to die.
776
00:42:23,268 --> 00:42:24,670
- Your people need you to be stronger.
- Ohvahz, Ohvahz,
777
00:42:24,674 --> 00:42:26,540
we are standing inside of a machine.
778
00:42:26,545 --> 00:42:28,390
This is a piece of technology.
779
00:42:30,340 --> 00:42:31,588
Technology?
780
00:42:31,593 --> 00:42:34,200
It was placed here hundreds
of years ago by an alien race.
781
00:42:34,205 --> 00:42:36,024
The sacrifices don't bring the rain.
782
00:42:36,629 --> 00:42:38,453
Okay? Technology does.
783
00:42:40,515 --> 00:42:41,698
No.
784
00:42:41,703 --> 00:42:43,731
No, you imagine what you wish to hear,
785
00:42:43,736 --> 00:42:45,211
but you have a duty.
786
00:42:45,616 --> 00:42:48,214
Please deliver me from...
787
00:42:48,919 --> 00:42:50,956
Deliver me.
788
00:42:50,961 --> 00:42:52,131
Tilly,
789
00:42:52,136 --> 00:42:53,711
are you hearing all this?
790
00:42:54,616 --> 00:42:56,396
I... I am.
791
00:42:56,401 --> 00:42:57,963
But we're running out of air.
792
00:42:57,968 --> 00:42:59,674
I'm gonna get you out of there, okay?
793
00:42:59,678 --> 00:43:01,214
I need you to talk to Ravah
794
00:43:01,219 --> 00:43:03,011
and see if they can
help me reach Ohvahz.
795
00:43:03,016 --> 00:43:04,186
Ravah.
796
00:43:06,019 --> 00:43:07,755
Do you remember your mother?
797
00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:11,029
- I do.
- What do you remember about her?
798
00:43:13,940 --> 00:43:17,944
There was a song to help me sleep.
799
00:43:18,749 --> 00:43:20,773
They sang it together.
800
00:43:21,778 --> 00:43:23,855
We were once together.
801
00:43:26,500 --> 00:43:28,581
Will you teach it to me?
802
00:43:29,086 --> 00:43:31,779
I'll sing it to you
while you fall asleep.
803
00:43:32,384 --> 00:43:35,910
I don't remember the words.
804
00:43:36,715 --> 00:43:38,786
Only the tune.
805
00:43:38,791 --> 00:43:40,441
Yeah, the tune's enough.
806
00:44:18,917 --> 00:44:20,959
How do you know that song?
807
00:44:20,964 --> 00:44:23,135
I can hear them from the other room.
808
00:44:23,140 --> 00:44:25,433
My technology lets me do that, too.
809
00:44:26,338 --> 00:44:27,613
I don't understand.
810
00:44:27,618 --> 00:44:30,820
Ravah remembers their
mother singing that song
811
00:44:30,825 --> 00:44:32,187
so many years ago.
812
00:44:32,192 --> 00:44:34,233
They are dying, Ohvahz.
813
00:44:34,238 --> 00:44:36,017
They don't want to die.
814
00:44:37,807 --> 00:44:39,352
Are you a god?
815
00:44:40,357 --> 00:44:41,788
No, I am not.
816
00:44:41,793 --> 00:44:45,009
I am a person from really far away.
817
00:44:45,014 --> 00:44:47,633
Almost as far away as those
who put the technology here.
818
00:44:47,638 --> 00:44:48,682
And I want to help you.
819
00:44:48,687 --> 00:44:51,467
I am here to help you save your child
820
00:44:51,972 --> 00:44:54,993
and my friend from dying
a needless death.
821
00:44:55,498 --> 00:44:57,734
I-I don't know what to do.
822
00:44:57,739 --> 00:45:00,259
Ohvahz, I am not a god,
823
00:45:00,264 --> 00:45:02,474
but I don't know, maybe
I was sent here by one.
824
00:45:02,879 --> 00:45:04,941
Hear me when I tell you,
825
00:45:04,946 --> 00:45:07,988
the rains will come
whether or not Ravah dies.
826
00:45:07,993 --> 00:45:10,008
Trust me.
827
00:45:10,013 --> 00:45:11,889
Please let them live.
828
00:45:34,385 --> 00:45:35,473
Tilly?
829
00:45:36,356 --> 00:45:38,005
- Tilly?
- Ravah?
830
00:45:38,010 --> 00:45:39,546
They're not breathing.
831
00:45:39,551 --> 00:45:41,439
Please, Ravah. They're not breathing!
832
00:45:42,593 --> 00:45:45,156
Here. My team can save them.
833
00:45:45,839 --> 00:45:47,271
My team can save Ravah.
834
00:45:47,276 --> 00:45:49,813
They can save them.
Come on, let them work.
835
00:46:05,585 --> 00:46:06,630
This...
836
00:46:07,935 --> 00:46:10,237
- this is Halem'no?
- This is what it looks like
837
00:46:10,242 --> 00:46:11,309
from our ship.
838
00:46:14,738 --> 00:46:19,252
It's... more beautiful than
I could have imagined.
839
00:46:43,388 --> 00:46:47,648
You said that an alien race
gave us the High Summit
840
00:46:47,653 --> 00:46:49,743
to save us from the dust storms.
841
00:46:50,848 --> 00:46:51,923
Why?
842
00:46:51,928 --> 00:46:53,207
The Denobulans,
843
00:46:54,312 --> 00:46:57,402
they value one another greatly,
just as you do here.
844
00:46:57,807 --> 00:47:00,095
They come from a world, uh,
much like your own.
845
00:47:00,100 --> 00:47:01,332
Massive storms.
846
00:47:01,337 --> 00:47:04,592
And they built weather towers
to keep them at bay.
847
00:47:05,597 --> 00:47:07,647
I suppose, in their travels,
848
00:47:07,652 --> 00:47:11,156
they felt a connection to you
and wanted to help.
849
00:47:13,113 --> 00:47:17,200
You should know that the tower, the...
850
00:47:17,936 --> 00:47:21,526
the High Summit, is failing.
851
00:47:21,531 --> 00:47:23,241
We fixed it for now,
852
00:47:23,246 --> 00:47:25,095
but it will stop working eventually
853
00:47:25,100 --> 00:47:26,445
if it isn't maintained.
854
00:47:27,450 --> 00:47:28,670
We can show you how.
855
00:47:30,558 --> 00:47:33,609
Thank you, but does all this mean...
856
00:47:35,515 --> 00:47:37,108
Are there no gods?
857
00:47:39,331 --> 00:47:40,603
Are there...
858
00:47:41,508 --> 00:47:42,748
What is there?
859
00:47:43,653 --> 00:47:45,442
There is still what you believe.
860
00:47:45,947 --> 00:47:48,999
Nothing we have shown you
means gods don't exist.
861
00:47:49,799 --> 00:47:52,231
Or that the Journey of the
Mother Compeer didn't happen.
862
00:47:52,236 --> 00:47:56,267
It's just that now you know
that there is also us.
863
00:47:59,700 --> 00:48:01,289
What do I say to my people?
864
00:48:02,394 --> 00:48:04,418
The sacrifices unite us.
865
00:48:05,523 --> 00:48:07,774
They help us see our common purpose.
866
00:48:08,779 --> 00:48:10,793
I fear how my people will react
867
00:48:10,798 --> 00:48:12,926
if we take this away so suddenly.
868
00:48:13,331 --> 00:48:15,950
In the past, attempts
to stop the sacrifices
869
00:48:15,955 --> 00:48:19,037
have been met with
violence and upheaval.
870
00:48:19,642 --> 00:48:21,500
You are wise to consider that.
871
00:48:21,505 --> 00:48:24,242
But there are those among you
who seem ready
872
00:48:24,247 --> 00:48:26,548
to move beyond the sacrifices.
873
00:48:26,953 --> 00:48:29,347
The woman you healed. Anorah.
874
00:48:29,852 --> 00:48:32,941
She finds order in your people's
875
00:48:32,946 --> 00:48:34,600
commitment to one another.
876
00:48:34,605 --> 00:48:37,237
She told me the sacrifices
aren't necessary
877
00:48:37,242 --> 00:48:39,021
to bring one closer to the gods.
878
00:48:39,026 --> 00:48:41,433
Maybe others are ready
to understand that, too.
879
00:48:42,038 --> 00:48:44,218
Beliefs can evolve.
880
00:48:44,223 --> 00:48:48,306
Denying that can cause almost as
much chaos as the worst storm.
881
00:48:51,887 --> 00:48:53,122
Ravah will wake soon.
882
00:48:53,127 --> 00:48:55,703
And given the circumstances,
I believe they should see
883
00:48:55,708 --> 00:48:57,271
their father when they do.
884
00:49:09,466 --> 00:49:11,685
- Did we do a good thing?
- Mm...
885
00:49:11,690 --> 00:49:13,795
And you're alive. That's
a really good thing.
886
00:49:13,800 --> 00:49:15,745
You know how much paperwork
I'd have to fill out
887
00:49:15,750 --> 00:49:18,021
for losing a perfectly good
Starfleet officer?
888
00:49:18,026 --> 00:49:19,881
In addition to the paperwork
you're already gonna
889
00:49:19,885 --> 00:49:22,535
have to fill out for breaking
the Prime Directive, so...
890
00:49:22,540 --> 00:49:24,193
Oh, gosh. Okay.
891
00:49:24,898 --> 00:49:27,114
I'm about to make you even
happier that you saved me.
892
00:49:27,719 --> 00:49:29,080
Any of this look familiar?
893
00:49:29,085 --> 00:49:30,778
Perhaps you recognize this
894
00:49:30,783 --> 00:49:34,982
from a certain vial containing
a drop of pure distilled water?
895
00:49:34,987 --> 00:49:37,332
Yes. The scratches on the side.
896
00:49:37,337 --> 00:49:38,755
What are these?
897
00:49:38,760 --> 00:49:40,640
They're numbers in ancient Halem'nese.
898
00:49:40,645 --> 00:49:42,598
One for each of the five towers.
899
00:49:42,603 --> 00:49:44,474
We are in the third tower.
900
00:49:45,300 --> 00:49:47,776
The vial had the same mark,
901
00:49:47,781 --> 00:49:50,217
so the clue is in tower five.
902
00:49:50,222 --> 00:49:52,303
Father?
903
00:49:54,344 --> 00:49:56,220
Are you with the gods as well?
904
00:49:57,225 --> 00:49:58,770
No, my child.
905
00:49:59,575 --> 00:50:01,159
We defied them?
906
00:50:01,664 --> 00:50:03,918
- No.
- The rains won't come.
907
00:50:03,923 --> 00:50:04,923
Listen.
908
00:50:04,928 --> 00:50:07,218
Perhaps devotion means...
909
00:50:08,323 --> 00:50:11,723
being able to hear when the gods
tell us something new.
910
00:50:13,128 --> 00:50:15,352
I'm very proud of you, Ravah.
911
00:50:17,350 --> 00:50:19,130
You're so full of light,
912
00:50:19,135 --> 00:50:23,196
courage and song, just like your mother.
913
00:50:47,946 --> 00:50:51,292
The rains. They've come.
914
00:51:33,165 --> 00:51:35,646
Oh, cheeky, aren't we?
915
00:51:37,169 --> 00:51:38,771
Hmm, watch it now.
916
00:51:42,174 --> 00:51:43,812
Zora said you were here.
917
00:51:45,438 --> 00:51:47,514
And I see you found a distraction.
918
00:51:47,519 --> 00:51:49,046
Next best thing.
919
00:51:49,051 --> 00:51:51,588
Why not the holodeck simulator?
920
00:51:51,593 --> 00:51:53,851
I can always tell it's not a real ship.
921
00:51:53,856 --> 00:51:56,227
- You brought food?
- I thought you'd be hungry.
922
00:51:56,232 --> 00:52:00,361
My grandmother's
mofongo con pollo al ajillo.
923
00:52:00,366 --> 00:52:01,907
Replicator fresh.
924
00:52:06,982 --> 00:52:10,289
- Ah. Thank you.
- Welcome.
925
00:52:11,669 --> 00:52:13,128
Smells amazing.
926
00:52:17,645 --> 00:52:19,076
Mmm.
927
00:52:19,081 --> 00:52:21,992
- Mmm.
- So, you asked me earlier
928
00:52:21,997 --> 00:52:25,235
if I get tired of having
all the answers.
929
00:52:26,540 --> 00:52:29,061
- I meant it as a joke.
- I know, it's just...
930
00:52:30,266 --> 00:52:31,811
I don't, is the thing.
931
00:52:33,991 --> 00:52:37,055
- What's going on?
- I'm having a, uh...
932
00:52:37,882 --> 00:52:39,932
... spiritual awakening.
933
00:52:43,018 --> 00:52:46,025
Or maybe I'm just seeing a truth
I've always known, but...
934
00:52:46,930 --> 00:52:48,433
Ever since zhian'tara,
935
00:52:49,938 --> 00:52:51,514
nothing else explains it.
936
00:52:53,768 --> 00:52:55,270
It sounds kind of wonderful.
937
00:52:59,338 --> 00:53:00,631
I told Paul.
938
00:53:02,341 --> 00:53:04,348
I don't think he really understood.
939
00:53:05,253 --> 00:53:06,842
I don't know that he ever will.
940
00:53:08,043 --> 00:53:09,213
So?
941
00:53:09,218 --> 00:53:11,255
Well, he's my partner.
942
00:53:12,260 --> 00:53:14,284
It's an odd quirk, really,
943
00:53:15,089 --> 00:53:18,331
this human tendency to consider
something less meaningful
944
00:53:19,336 --> 00:53:20,912
if it's just for yourself.
945
00:53:24,937 --> 00:53:26,970
I remember Michael dealing with it,
946
00:53:26,975 --> 00:53:30,016
even though, deep down,
that feeling of being alone
947
00:53:30,021 --> 00:53:33,042
was the oldest and closest
friend she ever had.
948
00:53:36,488 --> 00:53:39,557
But still, you know, it's
what made me love her.
949
00:53:41,641 --> 00:53:42,852
You miss her.
950
00:53:45,510 --> 00:53:47,381
I see her every day.
951
00:53:47,386 --> 00:53:48,914
But you miss what you had.
952
00:53:51,055 --> 00:53:52,618
You think you can get it back?
953
00:53:57,348 --> 00:53:59,403
One answer at a time, Doc.
954
00:54:13,764 --> 00:54:15,818
Courtesy of tower number five.
955
00:54:18,269 --> 00:54:19,918
It had a metal card attached
956
00:54:19,923 --> 00:54:22,238
with some kind of
Betazoid text inscription.
957
00:54:22,243 --> 00:54:25,245
Stamets is analyzing it so
we can see where to go next.
958
00:54:26,050 --> 00:54:28,300
What do you think Dr. Kreel
was trying to tell us,
959
00:54:28,305 --> 00:54:29,602
hiding the clue there?
960
00:54:29,607 --> 00:54:31,538
Well, he couldn't have known
that leaving behind
961
00:54:31,543 --> 00:54:33,218
a weather tower would
lead the Halem'nites
962
00:54:33,223 --> 00:54:35,064
to sacrificing one another.
963
00:54:35,369 --> 00:54:39,390
It is a massive
responsibility, technology.
964
00:54:39,395 --> 00:54:41,253
Maybe that's the real message.
965
00:54:42,554 --> 00:54:45,096
When we find the
Progenitors' creation...
966
00:54:47,068 --> 00:54:49,075
... we need to be so careful.
967
00:54:52,086 --> 00:54:54,966
Excuse me, Captain?
968
00:54:54,971 --> 00:54:56,668
Go ahead, Lieutenant Christopher.
969
00:54:56,673 --> 00:54:58,448
We just got a message from Fed HQ.
970
00:54:58,453 --> 00:55:00,911
The USS Locherer
just found Moll and L'ak.
971
00:55:00,916 --> 00:55:02,452
Admiral Vance requests that we jump
972
00:55:02,457 --> 00:55:03,893
to their location immediately.
973
00:55:03,898 --> 00:55:06,121
Okay, lock in coordinates.
974
00:55:07,226 --> 00:55:09,290
- Let's not make them wait.
- Mm-mm.
975
00:55:30,400 --> 00:55:37,900
