[narrator] <i>Previously on</i>
Star Trek Discovery:

2
00:00:08,843 --> 00:00:11,763
Our ship is enclosed
in a membrane of unknown substance.

3
00:00:11,846 --> 00:00:13,932
It appears to be an orb of some kind.

4
00:00:14,015 --> 00:00:15,266
Tell Stamets to assemble a team

5
00:00:15,350 --> 00:00:17,143
and figure out a way to get us out.

6
00:00:17,227 --> 00:00:19,229
[Ndoye] The DMA
could destroy both of our worlds.

7
00:00:19,312 --> 00:00:21,272
[T'Rina] They must be evacuating.
Even now.

8
00:00:21,356 --> 00:00:24,067
The math doesn't lie.
Most will not be saved.

9
00:00:24,150 --> 00:00:25,568
<i>- We have a problem.</i>
- What is it?

10
00:00:25,652 --> 00:00:28,321
We have only 12 hours
before the DMA reaches Earth.

11
00:00:28,404 --> 00:00:30,782
Won't take nearly that long
to get us out of here.

12
00:00:30,865 --> 00:00:33,451
- [Ndoye] <i>Where do I come in?</i>
- You'll hack <i>Discovery's</i> systems

13
00:00:33,535 --> 00:00:35,620
and vent the plasma
through the starboard nacelle.

14
00:00:35,703 --> 00:00:37,413
[Book] <i>We can't do this
without you.</i>

15
00:00:37,497 --> 00:00:38,706
It's done.

16
00:00:38,790 --> 00:00:40,875
Just make sure
you stop the damn thing in time.

17
00:00:40,959 --> 00:00:43,461
I am not certain
how to step into danger with one

18
00:00:43,545 --> 00:00:45,185
for whom I have such
a personal fondness.

19
00:00:45,213 --> 00:00:48,258
This is one of the reasons
I avoid closeness with others.

20
00:00:48,341 --> 00:00:49,257
Ah.

21
00:00:49,259 --> 00:00:50,885
Something is coming.

22
00:00:50,969 --> 00:00:52,303
A life-form.

23
00:00:52,387 --> 00:00:54,264
They responded
to our expression of suffering

24
00:00:54,347 --> 00:00:55,787
with an expression of great sadness.

25
00:00:55,848 --> 00:00:59,394
And if they have empathy for us,
diplomacy can work.

26
00:00:59,477 --> 00:01:01,312
Your friend Tarka's gonna kill us all.

27
00:01:01,396 --> 00:01:02,522
I won't let you do this.

28
00:01:04,816 --> 00:01:06,168
[Tarka] I never wanted this, Book.

29
00:01:06,192 --> 00:01:07,193
Ever.

30
00:01:07,277 --> 00:01:08,361
Thirty minutes left

31
00:01:08,444 --> 00:01:10,530
and we're out of this orb and on our way.

32
00:01:11,281 --> 00:01:13,449
We just received
an urgent message from Booker's ship.

33
00:01:13,533 --> 00:01:15,653
[Reno] <i>It's Reno. Tarka has got me
and Book locked up.</i>

34
00:01:15,702 --> 00:01:17,662
<i>If he takes out the DMA
the way he wants to,</i>

35
00:01:17,745 --> 00:01:22,166
<i>it'll destroy the hyperfield,
the Ten-C, probably</i> Discovery <i>too.</i>

36
00:01:22,250 --> 00:01:25,545
<i>It'll also leave a toxic void,
same as we got stuck in,</i>

37
00:01:25,628 --> 00:01:27,005
<i>heading straight for Earth.</i>

38
00:01:27,088 --> 00:01:29,465
<i>You have to stop us, whatever it takes.</i>

39
00:01:35,847 --> 00:01:37,599
[dramatic music playing]

40
00:01:51,237 --> 00:01:53,114
[Tilly] Each deck
of Federation headquarters

41
00:01:53,197 --> 00:01:54,782
is able to function independently,

42
00:01:54,866 --> 00:01:56,492
essentially as its own lifeboat,

43
00:01:56,576 --> 00:01:57,869
so don't waste any space.

44
00:01:57,952 --> 00:01:59,787
As soon as your deck
is filled to capacity,

45
00:01:59,871 --> 00:02:03,541
report to your CO, who will detach
and warp to Evacuation Base Gamma.

46
00:02:03,625 --> 00:02:06,586
We need to get as many people
to safety as quickly as possible.

47
00:02:06,669 --> 00:02:08,522
[man] <i>Lieutenant Cent,
please report to shuttlebay.</i>

48
00:02:08,546 --> 00:02:09,504
People are scared.

49
00:02:09,505 --> 00:02:10,545
They're losing everything.

50
00:02:10,590 --> 00:02:13,009
They're gonna be looking
to the Federation for guidance,

51
00:02:13,092 --> 00:02:14,302
for safety,

52
00:02:14,385 --> 00:02:15,385
for hope.

53
00:02:15,887 --> 00:02:17,388
We get to give that to them.

54
00:02:17,472 --> 00:02:20,350
[man over PA] <i>Attention
all personnel, please standby.</i>

55
00:02:20,433 --> 00:02:22,518
<i>We'll be dropping out
of warp in one minute.</i>

56
00:02:22,602 --> 00:02:24,354
All available officers are on evac duty.

57
00:02:24,437 --> 00:02:26,064
Our job is to help them succeed.

58
00:02:26,147 --> 00:02:28,066
As of now, you're no longer cadets.

59
00:02:28,149 --> 00:02:29,776
I know you may not feel ready...

60
00:02:30,485 --> 00:02:31,944
but I assure you, you are.

61
00:02:32,862 --> 00:02:33,862
You can do this.

62
00:02:35,990 --> 00:02:36,908
Dismissed.

63
00:02:36,909 --> 00:02:38,451
Gorev, Harral, you're with me.

64
00:02:42,955 --> 00:02:45,458
[suspenseful music playing]

65
00:03:04,352 --> 00:03:05,913
[woman over comm]
<i>Deck 29's at capacity.</i>

66
00:03:05,937 --> 00:03:07,647
<i>Requesting permission to undock.</i>

67
00:03:07,730 --> 00:03:08,749
[Vance] <i>Permission granted.</i>

68
00:03:08,773 --> 00:03:10,441
<i>See you at the rendezvous point.</i>

69
00:03:15,405 --> 00:03:16,906
[man] We're running out of time.

70
00:03:16,989 --> 00:03:18,109
[ops officer] Admiral Vance.

71
00:03:18,866 --> 00:03:22,036
Ni'Var has 17 ships
heading to the evacuation base.

72
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:24,160
Do you want me to bring them here
after they unload?

73
00:03:24,997 --> 00:03:26,749
No. They should stick to the plan.

74
00:03:26,833 --> 00:03:29,669
Ni'Var only has
86 warp-capable ships as it is.

75
00:03:29,752 --> 00:03:30,668
Yes, sir.

76
00:03:30,670 --> 00:03:32,922
How long do we have here, sir,
to help Earth?

77
00:03:33,005 --> 00:03:35,133
Four hours until the DMA starts to hit.

78
00:03:35,216 --> 00:03:36,509
Well, the <i>Mitchell</i> is at Titan.

79
00:03:36,592 --> 00:03:38,946
Even with the entire colony
onboard, they won't hit capacity.

80
00:03:38,970 --> 00:03:40,054
That's a good idea.

81
00:03:40,138 --> 00:03:41,138
When the <i>Mitchell's</i> done,

82
00:03:41,139 --> 00:03:44,142
get them back here to pick up
as many additional refugees as they can.

83
00:03:44,225 --> 00:03:45,518
Yes, sir.

84
00:03:45,601 --> 00:03:46,936
[Harral] Excuse me, sir.

85
00:03:47,019 --> 00:03:48,354
I'm sorry, admiral.

86
00:03:48,438 --> 00:03:49,605
I was just wondering,

87
00:03:50,314 --> 00:03:51,524
how many can we save?

88
00:03:51,607 --> 00:03:54,652
- Realistically.
- If first contact fails,

89
00:03:54,736 --> 00:03:55,820
all of Titan.

90
00:03:56,571 --> 00:03:58,573
Maybe 450,000 off of Earth.

91
00:03:58,656 --> 00:03:59,656
Same with Ni'Var.

92
00:04:00,116 --> 00:04:01,117
Best case.

93
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:02,660
That's it?

94
00:04:05,371 --> 00:04:06,748
Please hurry, Michael.

95
00:04:07,623 --> 00:04:09,959
Where is Stamets
on getting us out of this orb?

96
00:04:10,042 --> 00:04:12,003
He's testing some theories,
nothing concrete yet.

97
00:04:12,086 --> 00:04:13,546
What about the Ten-C, any response?

98
00:04:13,629 --> 00:04:15,965
Negative. Dr. Hirai's still
asking them to release us.

99
00:04:16,048 --> 00:04:17,925
Owosekun, what's the status on Tarka?

100
00:04:18,009 --> 00:04:21,179
Scans show he's gaining speed,
heading for the DMA power source.

101
00:04:21,262 --> 00:04:23,306
It's encased within
a silicone-ellanium alloy.

102
00:04:23,389 --> 00:04:25,099
Same as the DMA controller itself.

103
00:04:25,183 --> 00:04:27,477
That alloy's incredibly effective
at containing energy,

104
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:30,360
but it won't withstand external forces.
So whatever Tarka's planning...

105
00:04:30,438 --> 00:04:32,565
He's going to hit it
with a gravimetric beam.

106
00:04:32,648 --> 00:04:34,001
If Ten-C think they're under attack,

107
00:04:34,025 --> 00:04:36,027
they won't come back and talk to us.
Not in time.

108
00:04:36,110 --> 00:04:38,237
Ten-C's just launched
another orb, captain.

109
00:04:38,321 --> 00:04:39,906
They're trying to capture Book's ship.

110
00:04:39,989 --> 00:04:40,989
Keep me posted.

111
00:04:41,449 --> 00:04:43,469
Lt. Christopher,
tell Commander Stamets to test faster.

112
00:04:43,493 --> 00:04:45,912
I want us out of this orb,
whatever it takes.

113
00:04:45,995 --> 00:04:48,140
And have the diplomatic personnel
gather in the mess hall.

114
00:04:48,164 --> 00:04:50,476
- [Christopher] Yes, captain.
- Madam President, if you'd join me?

115
00:04:50,500 --> 00:04:51,769
May I ask what you have in mind?

116
00:04:51,793 --> 00:04:53,437
I'm going to confine
them all to quarters.

117
00:04:53,461 --> 00:04:55,221
I think you should be there
when I tell them.

118
00:04:58,090 --> 00:04:59,526
[Tarka] <i>The orbs
will capture us again</i>

119
00:04:59,550 --> 00:05:01,594
<i>if we don't keep changing
our astrodynamics.</i>

120
00:05:01,677 --> 00:05:04,180
Where's your presto chango button?

121
00:05:04,263 --> 00:05:06,265
I'm not helping you
with another damn thing.

122
00:05:06,349 --> 00:05:07,349
I don't understand.

123
00:05:07,391 --> 00:05:09,644
I'm doing exactly
what we said we'd do.

124
00:05:09,727 --> 00:05:11,854
- Nothing's changed.
- Everything's changed.

125
00:05:11,938 --> 00:05:14,565
The cost of this,
it has to be the last resort.

126
00:05:14,649 --> 00:05:16,192
You heard Ndoye, right?

127
00:05:16,275 --> 00:05:18,653
The first contact team is gone.

128
00:05:18,736 --> 00:05:19,736
They're in an orb.

129
00:05:19,737 --> 00:05:21,137
They could be dead for all we know.

130
00:05:21,197 --> 00:05:23,825
No, they're talking to the Ten-C.
It could work.

131
00:05:24,826 --> 00:05:27,078
You once told me anger can be productive.

132
00:05:27,161 --> 00:05:28,496
It can also blind you.

133
00:05:28,579 --> 00:05:30,665
I've been trying for ten years!

134
00:05:31,249 --> 00:05:32,542
I'm going home.

135
00:05:33,501 --> 00:05:34,669
I'm finding Oros.

136
00:05:35,419 --> 00:05:36,462
End of story.

137
00:05:37,046 --> 00:05:38,339
There it is.

138
00:05:50,476 --> 00:05:52,061
There's got to be a way out of this.

139
00:05:52,144 --> 00:05:55,189
If I had some hot and sour soup...

140
00:05:56,482 --> 00:05:59,235
Wouldn't help us. I'm just hungry.

141
00:05:59,318 --> 00:06:02,613
The upside is,
when we hit the hyperfield,

142
00:06:02,697 --> 00:06:04,782
we'll be vaporized immediately.

143
00:06:04,866 --> 00:06:06,242
Where's the upside in that?

144
00:06:06,784 --> 00:06:08,119
We'll die fast.

145
00:06:08,202 --> 00:06:09,202
I hate pain.

146
00:06:09,704 --> 00:06:10,788
[grunts]

147
00:06:16,961 --> 00:06:18,671
Or maybe we'll survive after all.

148
00:06:20,923 --> 00:06:24,385
I'm sorry, Madam President,
but plasma doesn't vent itself.

149
00:06:24,468 --> 00:06:26,262
This entire mission is compromised.

150
00:06:26,345 --> 00:06:29,265
There has to be a less public way
to handle this.

151
00:06:29,348 --> 00:06:30,868
It'll erode their trust in one another.

152
00:06:30,892 --> 00:06:33,728
I can't let whoever did this
keep walking around my ship.

153
00:06:33,811 --> 00:06:35,229
Is this about the plasma vent?

154
00:06:35,938 --> 00:06:38,834
I'll fill you in once everyone is here.
I'm gonna need to lock you all down.

155
00:06:38,858 --> 00:06:40,359
That won't be necessary.

156
00:06:40,443 --> 00:06:42,403
I'm the one who aided their escape.

157
00:06:42,486 --> 00:06:43,571
What?

158
00:06:44,655 --> 00:06:46,949
- Why would you...?
- United Earth is running out of time

159
00:06:47,033 --> 00:06:48,367
and you were all gone.

160
00:06:48,451 --> 00:06:49,869
We had no idea where the orb went,

161
00:06:49,952 --> 00:06:52,538
when you'd be back,
or if you were even still alive.

162
00:06:52,622 --> 00:06:53,891
They can stop the DMA right now.

163
00:06:53,915 --> 00:06:54,831
[Burnham] No, no.

164
00:06:54,832 --> 00:06:56,668
Billions of people might still die.

165
00:06:56,751 --> 00:06:58,419
No. Mr. Booker assured me...

166
00:06:58,502 --> 00:07:01,047
Was that before or after
Tarka took him hostage?

167
00:07:04,842 --> 00:07:08,596
Communication with the Ten-C
was working, general.

168
00:07:08,679 --> 00:07:11,682
We think they would have withdrawn
the DMA in time.

169

Officer Zena.

170

an answer from the Ten-C.</i>

176
00:07:40,503 --> 00:07:42,129
[Burnham] What did they say?

177
00:07:42,213 --> 00:07:44,256
Well, it is rather bewildering.

178
00:07:44,340 --> 00:07:46,968
We have been asking them
to release us from the orb.

179
00:07:47,051 --> 00:07:50,096
They replied
that we are already free of it.

180
00:07:50,179 --> 00:07:52,348
Are we sure the message was clear, Zora?

181
00:07:52,431 --> 00:07:53,891
[Zora] <i>For that particular exchange,</i>

182
00:07:53,975 --> 00:07:57,144
<i>I estimate our accuracy
to be in the 96th percentile.</i>

183
00:07:57,228 --> 00:07:59,146
Could they be confused about who sent it?

184
00:07:59,230 --> 00:08:02,191
More likely they presume
we're working with Booker and Tarka.

185
00:08:02,274 --> 00:08:03,859
We did arrive here together.

186
00:08:03,943 --> 00:08:07,238
Zora, can you communicate
that Tarka is acting on his own?

187
00:08:07,321 --> 00:08:09,782
[Zora] <i>The nuances of that
could take quite a long time.</i>

188
00:08:10,908 --> 00:08:14,870
If I can connect
with them telepathically,

189
00:08:14,954 --> 00:08:17,248
I may be able to convey
our desire to protect them.

190
00:08:17,331 --> 00:08:18,416
Madam President,

191
00:08:18,499 --> 00:08:20,084
linking with an unknown species

192
00:08:20,167 --> 00:08:23,004

we cannot begin to anticipate.

193

[Rillak] We have less than four hours.

194
00:08:25,256 --> 00:08:27,216
Do we really have a choice?

195
00:08:42,648 --> 00:08:44,233
I have made contact.

200
00:09:06,005 --> 00:09:08,591
We have to break it. Break the link.

Are you okay?

204
00:09:14,805 --> 00:09:15,848
What happened?

205
00:09:18,392 --> 00:09:19,392
They...

206
00:09:19,935 --> 00:09:23,105
They are confused and terrified.

207
00:09:23,189 --> 00:09:25,775
They cannot stop Booker's ship.

208
00:09:27,068 --> 00:09:28,903
And they no longer trust us.

209
00:09:32,490 --> 00:09:35,618
We must find another way to reach them...

210
00:09:36,452 --> 00:09:37,453

00:09:38,370 --> 00:09:40,664
that our worlds are already doomed.

[Burnham] Madam President,

216
00:11:22,892 --> 00:11:25,477
is there anything else
you can tell us about them?

217
00:11:26,228 --> 00:11:28,022
The experience was...

218
00:11:30,107 --> 00:11:31,483
unusual.

219
00:11:32,067 --> 00:11:33,527
Our connection, I...

220
00:11:34,195 --> 00:11:37,364
I was not feeling one of the Ten-C,

221
00:11:38,073 --> 00:11:39,241
but all of them.

222
00:11:40,492 --> 00:11:41,702
They're linked.

223
00:11:41,785 --> 00:11:42,828
Like the Borg?

224
00:11:42,912 --> 00:11:43,912
No.

225
00:11:44,246 --> 00:11:45,331
No, quite different.

226
00:11:46,123 --> 00:11:49,585
There was a sense of harmony
with one another.

227
00:11:50,294 --> 00:11:51,670
It's difficult to describe,

228
00:11:51,754 --> 00:11:53,756
but I believe they may not have

229
00:11:53,839 --> 00:11:59,720
any awareness
of individual existence as we know it.

230
00:12:00,888 --> 00:12:03,724
We're running out of time
to help them understand.

[Stamets] <i>Captain, I've got a way

We're on our way.

233

Keep us posted.

234
00:12:21,325 --> 00:12:23,369
[Saru] I apologize that I must go.

235
00:12:25,955 --> 00:12:28,624
Before I do, if I may,

236
00:12:28,707 --> 00:12:32,378
what you said
about avoiding closeness with others...

237
00:12:33,128 --> 00:12:36,090
This possibility,

238
00:12:36,674 --> 00:12:38,217
it is the reason I, too,

239
00:12:38,300 --> 00:12:43,055
have avoided a certain type
of closeness since leaving Kaminar.

240
00:12:44,139 --> 00:12:49,019
But I've come to believe
that the limits I place upon myself

241
00:12:50,020 --> 00:12:52,523
do not protect me so much as...

242
00:12:53,941 --> 00:12:56,235
dull the brightness of my days.

243
00:12:58,612 --> 00:13:00,656
Ah. In any event...

244
00:13:00,739 --> 00:13:02,074
Hm.

245
00:13:10,291 --> 00:13:11,375
We made it.

246
00:13:12,459 --> 00:13:15,254
I just need the power source
and you two can go back to <i>Discovery.</i>

247
00:13:15,337 --> 00:13:16,964
It'll be over in 15 minutes.

248
00:13:17,047 --> 00:13:21,135
Unless another orb chases us
into the hyperfield and we all die.

249
00:13:21,218 --> 00:13:24,221
Ten-C wouldn't risk getting this close
to the plasma streams.

to be about my home.

or anyone else we've lost.

we're all going to regret.

273
00:14:39,004 --> 00:14:40,297
It sure as hell will.

274
00:14:42,216 --> 00:14:44,259
[Stamets] <i>Good news is I can get us out,</i>

275
00:14:44,343 --> 00:14:46,178
and we should survive.

276
00:14:46,261 --> 00:14:47,346
Should?

277
00:14:47,429 --> 00:14:48,931
The best I can do these days.

278
00:14:49,890 --> 00:14:53,143
Yeah, we've been analyzing
the amount of energy required

279
00:14:53,227 --> 00:14:54,895
for Booker's ship to escape the orb.

280
00:14:54,978 --> 00:14:56,980
Now, considering <i>Discovery's</i>
much larger size,

281
00:14:57,064 --> 00:15:00,943
let's just say that it would take
a lot more for us to do the same.

282
00:15:01,026 --> 00:15:03,278
And as of right now,
there is only one process

283
00:15:03,362 --> 00:15:07,074
that can discharge that amount of energy
without also killing us immediately.

284
00:15:07,157 --> 00:15:08,659
The spore drive.

285
00:15:09,451 --> 00:15:10,786
Normally, when we jump,

286
00:15:10,869 --> 00:15:14,706
the energy that's discharged
is converted into momentum

287
00:15:14,790 --> 00:15:18,210
that propels the ship along the pathways
of the mycelial network.

288
00:15:18,293 --> 00:15:20,671
But if we were to remain stationary,

289
00:15:20,754 --> 00:15:24,049
all that stored up energy
would have to find somewhere else to go.

290
00:15:24,133 --> 00:15:27,761
You're saying it would release
into the orb and break us out?

291
00:15:27,845 --> 00:15:28,887
Yes.

292
00:15:28,971 --> 00:15:32,766
But it would burn out the spore drive
in the process,

293
00:15:32,850 --> 00:15:36,353
which we won't be able to repair
without Spacedock.

294
00:15:36,437 --> 00:15:38,188
Meaning we'd have to warp home.

295
00:15:38,272 --> 00:15:39,690
It would take decades.

296
00:15:39,773 --> 00:15:41,400
That's the bad news.

297
00:15:48,574 --> 00:15:49,574

Used to scare holo couriers,

303
00:16:01,170 --> 00:16:03,380
so I had to install a disruptor,

304
00:16:03,464 --> 00:16:05,007
that'll work rather nicely

305
00:16:05,090 --> 00:16:07,342
on the force field generated
by holo emitters.

306

I was born ready?

<i>Commander Stamets?</i>

320
00:16:48,217 --> 00:16:49,343
Spore drive's holding,

321
00:16:49,426 --> 00:16:51,428
but power throughput's nearing capacity.

322
00:16:52,596 --> 00:16:55,057
We got minor hull breaches
on multiple decks,

323
00:16:55,140 --> 00:16:56,308
no injuries reported.

324
00:16:56,391 --> 00:16:57,684
What about the orb?

325
00:16:57,768 --> 00:16:59,186
No changes yet.

326
00:17:02,731 --> 00:17:05,192
Captain, our entire EPS grid
is about to overload.

327
00:17:05,275 --> 00:17:06,233
Do not stop it.

328
00:17:06,235 --> 00:17:07,235
This is our only shot.

329
00:17:09,863 --> 00:17:11,240
[alarm wailing]

330
00:17:33,262 --> 00:17:34,262
We're out of the orb.

331
00:17:34,263 --> 00:17:35,983
The impulse engines
are back up and running.

332
00:17:36,056 --> 00:17:37,766
Warp drive is gonna take a while.

333
00:17:37,849 --> 00:17:38,850
So will weapons systems.

334
00:17:38,934 --> 00:17:40,477
Spore drive's down, as expected.

335
00:17:40,561 --> 00:17:41,895
Any other orbs on the way?

336
00:17:42,479 --> 00:17:43,480
None.

337
00:17:44,106 --> 00:17:45,566
Seems they're letting us go.

338
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:48,735
Maybe we can turn this around after all.

339
00:17:51,405 --> 00:17:53,365
[Detmer] Exiting
the gas giant now, captain.

340
00:17:54,157 --> 00:17:56,076
Get us back to Book's ship
as fast as you can.

341
00:17:56,159 --> 00:17:58,620
Ten-C won't talk to us
until we stop Tarka.

342
00:17:58,704 --> 00:17:59,704
Aye, captain.

343
00:18:01,206 --> 00:18:02,206
[Book] Tarka.

344
00:18:06,044 --> 00:18:07,754
[Reno] Here's to holo disruptors.

345
00:18:07,838 --> 00:18:10,382
I think I might actually start
to like that cat of yours.

346
00:18:11,508 --> 00:18:13,135
Can't get into the system.

347
00:18:13,218 --> 00:18:14,218
It's on autopilot.

348
00:18:14,261 --> 00:18:17,848
Ten minutes until it gets to the power
source and the hyperfield goes boom.

349
00:18:17,931 --> 00:18:20,451
There's no way we're gonna be able
to override the system in time.

350
00:18:20,475 --> 00:18:22,035
Damn it. We're locked out of Comms too.

351
00:18:22,102 --> 00:18:23,979
So much for calling in the cavalry.

352
00:18:28,233 --> 00:18:31,486
Hey, take my badge. Beam back
to <i>Discovery,</i> tell them what's happening.

353
00:18:31,570 --> 00:18:33,610
I'm gonna stay with him
and find a way to stop this.

354
00:18:34,990 --> 00:18:35,991
Tell Michael I love her.

355
00:18:37,075 --> 00:18:38,535
And whatever she has to do...

356
00:18:39,703 --> 00:18:40,703
it's okay.

357
00:18:41,663 --> 00:18:43,349
[Detmer] Book's ship's
back in range, captain.

358
00:18:43,373 --> 00:18:44,625
Can you get us any closer?

359
00:18:44,708 --> 00:18:46,001
Not with these plasma bursts.

360
00:18:46,084 --> 00:18:47,461
Captain, someone's beaming aboard.

361
00:18:47,544 --> 00:18:48,544
I've got a lock.

362
00:18:48,587 --> 00:18:50,088
It's Commander Reno.

363
00:18:50,839 --> 00:18:52,299
[Burnham] Bring her to the bridge.

364
00:18:55,177 --> 00:18:57,220
Commander, are you okay?

365
00:18:57,304 --> 00:18:58,680
Better than Boy Genius.

366
00:18:58,764 --> 00:19:02,017
He'll be through to the power source
in the next ten, just FYI.

367
00:19:02,100 --> 00:19:03,185
Rhys?

368
00:19:03,268 --> 00:19:04,686
Still getting weapons online.

369
00:19:04,770 --> 00:19:06,521
I'll see if I can help with that.

370
00:19:07,314 --> 00:19:08,649
The man loves you.

371
00:19:08,732 --> 00:19:10,651
He said, "Do whatever it takes."

372
00:19:15,238 --> 00:19:17,115
Okay, we need options.

373
00:19:17,199 --> 00:19:18,950
Can we transport them back here?

374
00:19:19,034 --> 00:19:20,970
Book's ship is protected
by a pattern interrupter.

375
00:19:20,994 --> 00:19:22,834
I can't get a lock
unless they choose to leave.

376
00:19:22,871 --> 00:19:25,332
What about a tractor beam?
Pull them away from the casement?

377
00:19:25,415 --> 00:19:27,226
Only if they stop
their gravimetric beam first.

378
00:19:27,250 --> 00:19:29,419
Otherwise, we could destroy
the hyperfield ourselves.

379
00:19:29,503 --> 00:19:31,380
Captain, if I may.

380
00:19:31,463 --> 00:19:35,509
General Ndoye has a singular mind
for military tactics.

381
00:19:35,592 --> 00:19:37,260
She did offer to help.

382
00:19:39,221 --> 00:19:42,021
- [Vance] What am I looking at, lieutenant?
- [Tilly] We have incoming.

383
00:19:42,599 --> 00:19:44,518
Near Earth debris pushed
by gravitational waves

384
00:19:44,601 --> 00:19:46,353
at 2,100 kilometers per second.

385
00:19:46,436 --> 00:19:47,938
That's the DMA.

386
00:19:48,021 --> 00:19:50,023
Tell Earth to raise their shields.

387
00:19:50,107 --> 00:19:52,192
Attention, all personnel,

388
00:19:52,275 --> 00:19:53,402
prepare for incoming.

389
00:19:53,485 --> 00:19:55,570
Transport shuttles, continue evacuations.

390
00:19:55,654 --> 00:19:57,698
All others, defensive formation omega.

391
00:19:57,781 --> 00:19:59,783
We'll hold the line as long as we can.

392
00:20:10,836 --> 00:20:12,003
Who is that?

393
00:20:12,504 --> 00:20:14,381
The <i>USS Mitchell,</i> sir. They made it.

394
00:20:14,965 --> 00:20:17,175
Remind me to give their captain
a commendation

395
00:20:17,259 --> 00:20:18,653
if we ever make it out of this alive.

396
00:20:18,677 --> 00:20:20,595
- Is the president off-world?
- No, sir.

397
00:20:20,679 --> 00:20:21,989
She's helping with the evacuation.

398
00:20:22,013 --> 00:20:24,766
She said she won't leave
until the last possible moment.

399
00:20:25,726 --> 00:20:28,812
Make sure the evac captain gets her
in a shuttle before pulling out.

400
00:20:30,230 --> 00:20:32,858
Admiral, Deck 5 is at full capacity.

401
00:20:32,941 --> 00:20:35,318
- Tell them to get out while they can.
- Yes, sir.

402
00:20:35,402 --> 00:20:37,404
We're running out of time.

403
00:20:39,656 --> 00:20:41,217
I presume you've considered the obvious?

404
00:20:41,241 --> 00:20:43,161
- Tractor beam and the like?
- [Burnham] We have.

405
00:20:43,785 --> 00:20:45,120
What about a targeted hit?

406
00:20:45,203 --> 00:20:46,955
We could send a shuttle on autopilot.

407
00:20:47,038 --> 00:20:49,078
[Nilsson] Gravimetric flux
would disrupt navigation.

408
00:20:49,124 --> 00:20:51,835
Somebody would have to be
on the controls to stay on target.

409
00:20:51,918 --> 00:20:54,129
[Owosekun] I don't think
I could beam them out in time.

410
00:20:54,212 --> 00:20:55,797
[Rhys] It's a suicide mission.

411
00:20:55,881 --> 00:20:58,300
There's no way Book and Tarka
would survive.

412
00:20:58,884 --> 00:21:02,137
If we don't stop Tarka,
the Ten-C will never stop the DMA.

413
00:21:03,096 --> 00:21:05,724
Earth and Ni'Var
may already be getting hit.

414
00:21:05,807 --> 00:21:06,850
[sighs]

415
00:21:12,689 --> 00:21:14,065
We'll need a great pilot.

416
00:21:23,700 --> 00:21:24,993
I'm ready, captain.

417
00:21:26,369 --> 00:21:27,496
[Ndoye] Let me do it.

418
00:21:29,915 --> 00:21:31,208
General?

419
00:21:31,291 --> 00:21:33,919
I have years of experience
as a combat pilot.

420
00:21:35,378 --> 00:21:37,672
United Earth is my home.

421
00:21:37,756 --> 00:21:39,883
Its citizens are my family.

422
00:21:39,966 --> 00:21:43,094
I spent the last 20 years
fighting to protect both.

423
00:21:43,804 --> 00:21:46,723
That is where my decision
to help Book and Tarka came from.

424
00:21:47,224 --> 00:21:49,768
Whether or not you would have
made the same choice,

425
00:21:49,851 --> 00:21:51,144
you must understand it.

426
00:21:58,819 --> 00:22:02,489
Owosekun, prepare to beam
the general to shuttlebay.

427
00:22:12,249 --> 00:22:13,518
[Ndoye] If I don't make it back,

428
00:22:13,542 --> 00:22:16,002
please tell the president
I gave my all for Earth.

429
00:22:16,503 --> 00:22:17,629
I will.

430
00:22:28,807 --> 00:22:30,475
[alarm wailing]

431
00:22:33,019 --> 00:22:34,145
[Vance] Status report.

432
00:22:34,229 --> 00:22:37,524
Bridge propulsion systems
just went down, admiral. We're stuck.

433
00:22:37,607 --> 00:22:40,318
<i>Pathfinder</i> and <i>Tikhov</i>
both report shields below 10 percent.

434
00:22:41,194 --> 00:22:43,363
Sir, the <i>Credence</i> is leaving now.

435
00:22:43,446 --> 00:22:46,449
The <i>Nog's</i> still not at capacity,
but they're taking hits and won't last.

436
00:22:47,325 --> 00:22:48,803
[woman over comm] <i>This is</i> USS Yelchin.

437
00:22:48,827 --> 00:22:52,455
<i>Evacuation orders are complete.
See you on the other side.</i>

438
00:22:54,291 --> 00:22:56,209
This is Admiral Charles Vance.

439
00:22:57,460 --> 00:22:59,045
All remaining vessels...

440
00:23:01,298 --> 00:23:02,883
cease evacuation effort.

441
00:23:03,383 --> 00:23:05,802
Depart Earth and her moon immediately.

442
00:23:06,511 --> 00:23:09,723
I'll provide covering fire for you
for as long as I possibly can.

443
00:23:12,559 --> 00:23:15,353
[man over comm] USS Grechko,
<i>confirming all navigational links online.</i>

444
00:23:15,437 --> 00:23:16,855
Thank you all for your bravery.

445
00:23:21,067 --> 00:23:22,235
Abandon ship.

446
00:23:24,321 --> 00:23:26,072
Report to the <i>Mitchell</i> immediately.

447
00:23:32,871 --> 00:23:34,831
You both did great job today.

448
00:23:34,915 --> 00:23:36,499
I just wish we could have done more.

449
00:23:38,585 --> 00:23:39,836
I know. Me too.

450
00:23:48,511 --> 00:23:49,596
Go.

451
00:23:50,931 --> 00:23:51,931
Go.

452
00:23:52,641 --> 00:23:53,641
See you on the <i>Mitchell.</i>

453
00:23:57,854 --> 00:24:00,054
[man over comm] <i>Federation HQ,
this is the</i> USS Mitchell.

454
00:24:00,106 --> 00:24:03,318
<i>Jumping to the rendezvous point now.
Good luck, Admiral.</i>

455
00:24:12,661 --> 00:24:14,245
Lieutenant, what are you doing?

456
00:24:14,329 --> 00:24:16,081
Helping you with covering fire.

457
00:24:16,831 --> 00:24:18,500
Those are my cadets out there.

458
00:24:18,583 --> 00:24:21,252
This was all for nothing
if the ships can't actually leave.

459
00:24:21,336 --> 00:24:23,964
Once they get clear,
we won't be able to transport over.

460
00:24:24,047 --> 00:24:25,340
I know, sir.

461
00:24:30,303 --> 00:24:31,721
[Book] Come on. Damn it, wake up.

462
00:24:31,805 --> 00:24:33,366
[computer] <i>Four minutes
to casement breach.</i>

463
00:24:33,390 --> 00:24:35,308
Come on, come on. I've tried everything.

464
00:24:35,392 --> 00:24:36,643
Tell me how to stop it.

465
00:24:37,602 --> 00:24:38,728
I can't do that.

466
00:24:38,812 --> 00:24:40,188
Would Oros want this?

467
00:24:40,939 --> 00:24:42,440
We're almost home.

468
00:24:43,483 --> 00:24:44,901
He won't be there.

469
00:24:46,403 --> 00:24:48,279
- You have to know that.
- Stop.

470
00:24:49,239 --> 00:24:50,281
He's gone, Tarka.

471
00:24:50,365 --> 00:24:52,075
- You don't know that!
- Hey.

472
00:24:52,701 --> 00:24:54,160
I understand, okay?

473
00:24:54,786 --> 00:24:55,786
I do.

474
00:24:59,416 --> 00:25:01,084
It's painful.

475
00:25:01,584 --> 00:25:02,961
The hole they leave behind.

476
00:25:04,254 --> 00:25:05,714
Leto, Kyheem.

477
00:25:06,923 --> 00:25:08,883
Some days, I don't even
know how to wake up.

478

but all our ships made it safely

I programmed the DOTs
to reinforce deflector arrays

556
00:30:47,347 --> 00:30:50,058
and rerouted all power to the shields,

557
00:30:50,141 --> 00:30:51,934
so toilets might not flush anymore,

but it might buy Earth
a little bit more time.

Of course.

More than anything.

580
00:32:17,687 --> 00:32:22,150
My mom and I didn't have
an easy relationship at all,

Still descending,
heading deeper into the gas giant.

00:37:06,350 --> 00:37:08,060
They would like to know why.

640
00:37:17,069 --> 00:37:20,197
One of them had someone...

641
00:37:22,074 --> 00:37:23,451
his one...

642
00:37:24,660 --> 00:37:26,954
and he lost him long ago.

643
00:37:28,164 --> 00:37:30,708
He believed the power source
would reunite them.

644
00:37:32,209 --> 00:37:33,544
And the other...

645
00:37:37,673 --> 00:37:41,260
your device destroyed his planet.

646
00:37:43,345 --> 00:37:45,306
It killed his family.

647
00:37:47,349 --> 00:37:49,685
He didn't want anyone else
to experience that.

648
00:37:54,315 --> 00:37:56,650
"Is that why you are here?"

649
00:37:57,860 --> 00:37:58,860
Yes.

650
00:37:59,653 --> 00:38:02,031
That loss is about to happen again.

651
00:38:02,531 --> 00:38:03,824
To all of us.

652
00:38:05,910 --> 00:38:10,664
We experienced your fear and your pain

653
00:38:11,248 --> 00:38:13,918
when you had to leave your former home

654
00:38:15,002 --> 00:38:17,505
when so many of your
loved ones were left behind.

655
00:38:19,089 --> 00:38:21,842
And that is what we are feeling right now.

656
00:38:22,468 --> 00:38:25,471
You have to stop your device.

657
00:38:26,180 --> 00:38:30,017
Otherwise, it will destroy
our planets as well,

658
00:38:30,684 --> 00:38:32,478
and billions will die.

659
00:38:33,270 --> 00:38:35,648
Do not let history repeat.

660
00:38:47,201 --> 00:38:48,201
[Saru] They said...

661
00:38:53,123 --> 00:38:54,458
Did the DMA just...

662
00:38:56,168 --> 00:38:57,168
stop?

663
00:38:59,088 --> 00:39:00,589
They said they will move it away.

664
00:39:01,131 --> 00:39:03,592
[all sighing, speaking indistinctly]

665
00:39:05,678 --> 00:39:07,179
There goes the debris field.

666
00:39:16,605 --> 00:39:18,524
Reno, are you hearing this?

667
00:39:18,607 --> 00:39:20,150
They stopped the DMA.

668

[Reno over comm] <i>I'm already
making a cocktail, Bobcat.</i>

Bobcat?

670
00:39:27,908 --> 00:39:29,660
It's a... It's a good nickname.

671
00:39:48,554 --> 00:39:50,431
[Saru] They feel your sadness, captain,

672
00:39:50,514 --> 00:39:52,766
but they do not understand.

673
00:39:52,850 --> 00:39:55,436
They say your home is safe.

674
00:39:55,519 --> 00:39:59,231
Billions of ones are safe.

675
00:40:01,191 --> 00:40:02,776
They ask why you feel this way.

676
00:40:08,616 --> 00:40:11,201
The two people who separated from us

677
00:40:11,952 --> 00:40:13,203
that died today...

678
00:40:14,997 --> 00:40:17,499
one of them, I loved very deeply.

679
00:40:19,543 --> 00:40:20,920
He was...

680
00:40:23,255 --> 00:40:24,798
He was my one.

[Burnham sobbing]

685
00:41:03,754 --> 00:41:05,130
Did it work?

686
00:41:05,214 --> 00:41:06,674
- Yeah.
- Is Earth and Ni'Var safe?

687
00:41:06,757 --> 00:41:07,758
- They are.
- Yeah?

688
00:41:07,841 --> 00:41:08,968
Are you real?

689
00:41:09,718 --> 00:41:10,718
Yeah.

690
00:41:14,306 --> 00:41:15,474
He's alive.

691
00:41:28,278 --> 00:41:29,278
That's them.

692
00:41:35,536 --> 00:41:36,704
Can I talk to them?

693
00:41:38,956 --> 00:41:40,374
Saru will translate.

694
00:41:42,459 --> 00:41:44,003
How am I even here?

695
00:41:48,716 --> 00:41:51,593
"We intercepted
your transportation signal.

696

We did not understand its nature,
but presumed its importance,

697
00:41:56,098 --> 00:41:58,100
given the timing of its appearance,

698
00:41:58,183 --> 00:41:59,893
so we held it in stasis."

699
00:42:00,602 --> 00:42:01,687
And the DMA...

700
00:42:03,063 --> 00:42:04,398
is it gone for good?

No.

705

That's not good enough.

706
00:42:23,751 --> 00:42:27,379
It's not enough to stop destroying lives.

707
00:42:28,005 --> 00:42:30,466
The DMA always leaves behind a toxic mess.

708
00:42:31,008 --> 00:42:32,843
You have to shut it off for good.

709
00:42:34,511 --> 00:42:36,597
That is the start of making things right.

710

They said if they do that,
they would not be able to...

I do not understand the word,

712

<i>That would make us unsafe."</i>

715
00:42:52,613 --> 00:42:56,575
Hiding behind a wall may calm your fears,
but it won't keep you safe.

716
00:42:56,658 --> 00:42:58,952
The void will eventually reach you.

717
00:42:59,578 --> 00:43:01,413
We all live in the same space.

718
00:43:02,039 --> 00:43:04,333
This is all there is.

On my home...

720
00:43:07,628 --> 00:43:08,962
we had an organism,

the World Root.

722
00:43:12,091 --> 00:43:14,051
It connected all life on Kwejian.

723
00:43:14,134 --> 00:43:16,428
Wherever we lived,
whatever village or continent,

724
00:43:16,512 --> 00:43:19,056
it reminded us we were all
on the same planet,

725
00:43:19,723 --> 00:43:23,685
our fates always interconnected.

726

Maybe that's the lesson,

if there is one.

728
00:43:30,609 --> 00:43:32,319
That is true of all of us.

We've lost so many, you and me.

But we can't do harm

We have to honor them.

You must be eager to return home.

I am.

And I am grateful that
we no longer need to worry.

As am I.

784
00:48:51,763 --> 00:48:54,975
I have been considering
what you shared earlier.

785
00:48:57,018 --> 00:48:59,271
I have long told myself
that balancing duty

786
00:48:59,354 --> 00:49:02,357
and personal relationships
was not possible.

787

I believe now that I was being
dishonest with myself.

788

It is possible, if difficult.

789

However, it is worth the effort...

for the right individual.

00:49:27,048 --> 00:49:30,343
When I feared we may not survive,

my greatest regret was that I had not
spent more time with you, Madam President.

all the other beings we've never met.

00:50:42,749 --> 00:50:44,751
And my family stayed on Earth,

806
00:50:44,834 --> 00:50:47,087
but they escaped the worst of it.

807
00:50:48,672 --> 00:50:50,465
I'm gonna see them soon.

808
00:50:54,094 --> 00:50:59,099
You have come a long way
since we first stood here.

809
00:50:59,724 --> 00:51:01,893
The Kobayashi Maru conversation.

810
00:51:01,977 --> 00:51:05,897
Mm. I told you you weren't ready
for a <i>Voyager</i> captaincy.

811
00:51:07,607 --> 00:51:08,692
You are now.

812
00:51:09,985 --> 00:51:10,985
Thank you.

813
00:51:14,155 --> 00:51:15,490
I still wouldn't take it, ma'am.

814
00:51:15,574 --> 00:51:16,908
[both chuckle]

815
00:51:16,992 --> 00:51:18,451
Oh, I know.

816
00:51:22,330 --> 00:51:23,330
So...

817
00:51:25,041 --> 00:51:26,543
what happens with him?

818
00:51:27,085 --> 00:51:28,086
With Book?

819
00:51:28,920 --> 00:51:33,300
He violated multiple Federation statutes.

820
00:51:33,383 --> 00:51:36,052
He launched an Isolytic weapon. It's...

821
00:51:36,136 --> 00:51:37,387
It's a long list.

822
00:51:37,470 --> 00:51:39,764
And I am not asking for leniency.

823
00:51:39,848 --> 00:51:40,974
I know.

824
00:51:41,600 --> 00:51:43,476
But reasons do matter.

825
00:51:44,978 --> 00:51:47,355
It's the only way
justice can ever be just.

826
00:51:50,483 --> 00:51:51,901
[purring]

827
00:51:51,985 --> 00:51:54,154
[Book] I got the news about my future.

828
00:51:56,114 --> 00:51:57,699
Could you give us a minute, please?

829
00:51:58,241 --> 00:52:00,452
We're beaming him
back to his shuttle in five.

830
00:52:03,204 --> 00:52:05,081
- Hey. Hey.
- Hey.

831
00:52:07,459 --> 00:52:09,294
- Are you okay?
- Yeah.

832
00:52:18,511 --> 00:52:19,554
What did they say?

833
00:52:20,930 --> 00:52:24,309
Federation's sending me
to help families displaced by the DMA.

834
00:52:24,392 --> 00:52:27,395
Not sure for how long,
but I know where I'll be.

835
00:52:27,479 --> 00:52:28,605
Whew.

836
00:52:31,483 --> 00:52:32,942
How do you feel about it?

837
00:52:33,777 --> 00:52:35,445
I'll miss the freedom of my ship.

838
00:52:36,446 --> 00:52:37,989
But all things considered...

839
00:52:40,992 --> 00:52:44,037
I heard my own voice
when I was talking to the Ten-C

840
00:52:45,288 --> 00:52:46,790
about not causing harm.

841
00:52:48,958 --> 00:52:50,210
I'm sorry, Michael.

842
00:52:58,468 --> 00:53:00,220
It'll be nice to be of use, though.

843
00:53:03,598 --> 00:53:05,558
Look, I don't know how to say bye.

844
00:53:05,642 --> 00:53:06,642
We don't.

845
00:53:07,102 --> 00:53:08,895
We say, <i>"Kwekoni Yiquan."</i>

846
00:53:09,521 --> 00:53:13,858
It's a Kwejian term used only amongst
hunters with the tightest of bonds.

847
00:53:14,567 --> 00:53:16,069
It means something like:

848
00:53:17,362 --> 00:53:19,322
"We've parted a hundred times.

849
00:53:19,823 --> 00:53:22,409
May we rejoin to part a hundred more."

850
00:53:24,119 --> 00:53:25,995
<i>Kwekoni Yiquan</i> it is.

851
00:53:27,539 --> 00:53:29,999
<i>- Kwekoni Yiquan...</i>
- I said it right the first time.

852
00:53:30,625 --> 00:53:31,710
Mm-mm.

853
00:53:34,254 --> 00:53:36,256
I love you, you know.

854
00:53:37,716 --> 00:53:38,842
I love you more.

855
00:53:39,843 --> 00:53:41,010
[chuckles]

856
00:53:42,220 --> 00:53:47,767
I first knew it when we were
in that terrible scrap in Tiburon.

857
00:53:47,851 --> 00:53:49,352
It was so cold. Do you remember?

858
00:53:49,436 --> 00:53:51,497
- Yeah, but it wasn't that cold.
- Oh, it was freezing.

859
00:53:51,521 --> 00:53:53,958
There was a dust of snow on the ground,
and everything was pink.

860
00:53:53,982 --> 00:53:55,775
I do remember that. That was beautiful.

861
00:53:55,859 --> 00:53:57,402
Yeah, and you were shivering.

862
00:53:57,986 --> 00:54:01,281
Yeah, trying to be so tough,
but I saw you shivering.

863
00:54:01,364 --> 00:54:03,950
I told you that I was moving to keep warm.

864
00:54:04,033 --> 00:54:05,493
Yeah. And that's when I said...

865
00:54:05,577 --> 00:54:07,620
"That's what shivering is, Michael."

866
00:54:11,958 --> 00:54:13,376
I took a long look at you,

867
00:54:15,211 --> 00:54:16,211
and I thought:

868
00:54:17,881 --> 00:54:18,881
"All right, Book,

869
00:54:20,383 --> 00:54:21,593
what are you gonna do?"

870
00:54:30,685 --> 00:54:32,020
And that's when you said:

871
00:54:33,688 --> 00:54:35,023
"We're gonna be okay."

872
00:54:41,738 --> 00:54:42,781
Hmm.

873
00:54:48,244 --> 00:54:49,913
[Burnham] <i>Hard to believe it's over.</i>

874
00:54:49,996 --> 00:54:53,208
<i>The uncertainty, the fear, the unknown.</i>

875
00:54:53,291 --> 00:54:55,418
<i>Sometimes, it felt like
it would never end.</i>

876
00:54:55,502 --> 00:54:57,337
<i>But we made it.</i>

877
00:54:58,129 --> 00:54:59,798
<i>We've been tracking subspace rifts.</i>

878
00:54:59,881 --> 00:55:02,759
<i>The Ten-C are keeping
their promise to clean them up.</i>

879
00:55:02,842 --> 00:55:04,385
<i>First contact wasn't easy,</i>

880
00:55:04,469 --> 00:55:07,597
<i>but, as always, the effort was worth it.</i>

881
00:55:07,680 --> 00:55:09,015
How's it going?

882
00:55:09,098 --> 00:55:11,601
It's faster than expected, actually.

883
00:55:11,684 --> 00:55:14,729
[Burnham] <i>Which means we'll all get
a much-needed break soon.</i>

884
00:55:14,813 --> 00:55:16,231
<i>Everyone has people to see...</i>

885
00:55:16,314 --> 00:55:18,441
- Is Bryce meeting us there?
- That's what he said.

886
00:55:18,525 --> 00:55:20,235
Assuming Kovich lets him go.

887
00:55:20,735 --> 00:55:22,654
[Burnham].<i>..and places to visit.</i>

888
00:55:22,737 --> 00:55:25,490
<i>Places they haven't seen in 930 years.</i>

889
00:55:25,573 --> 00:55:27,408
I can't believe you did this for me.

890
00:55:28,493 --> 00:55:30,036
I actually get to go home.

891
00:55:30,620 --> 00:55:32,372
I did it for me, actually,

892
00:55:32,455 --> 00:55:35,667
so I can finally have mavi
not made by a replicator.

893
00:55:37,710 --> 00:55:41,548
[Burnham] <i>Some will use this time
to strengthen existing relationships.</i>

894
00:55:45,385 --> 00:55:48,805
<i>Others are already
reaching out to build new ones.</i>

895
00:55:55,937 --> 00:55:57,146
<i>And Book...</i>

896
00:55:59,649 --> 00:56:02,777
<i>he's heading to
an emergency center on Europa.</i>

897
00:56:02,861 --> 00:56:04,904
<i>I don't know when I'll see him again,</i>

898
00:56:04,988 --> 00:56:06,364
<i>but I know I will.</i>

899
00:56:07,615 --> 00:56:09,242
Kwekoni Yiquan.

900
00:56:10,702 --> 00:56:13,997
<i>We came to this future
to find the Federation in pieces,</i>

901
00:56:14,080 --> 00:56:17,917
<i>quadrants and sectors,
planets and families divided,</i>

902
00:56:18,001 --> 00:56:20,712
<i>so much uncertainty and disconnection.</i>

903
00:56:20,795 --> 00:56:25,550
<i>But the Burn and the DMA
have shown us that we are all connected.</i>

904
00:56:25,633 --> 00:56:29,846
<i>And we can overcome any challenge,
so long as we do it together.</i>

905
00:56:30,805 --> 00:56:34,100
<i>The Federation is continuing
to help impacted worlds recover.</i>

906
00:56:34,183 --> 00:56:35,894
<i>Many have since joined us.</i>

907
00:56:35,977 --> 00:56:39,397
<i>Their perspectives
are helping us all see more clearly.</i>

908
00:56:39,480 --> 00:56:41,149
<i>Ni'Var is back.</i>

<i>And today, we greet
the president of United Earth.</i>

912
00:56:58,207 --> 00:56:59,292
Madam President.

913
00:56:59,375 --> 00:57:01,169
Madam President, welcome.

914
00:57:01,252 --> 00:57:03,004
I am so pleased that you've come.

915
00:57:03,087 --> 00:57:05,465
We are eager to begin
diplomatic discussions.

916
00:57:05,548 --> 00:57:07,091
Nothing to discuss.

917
00:57:08,051 --> 00:57:12,013
United Earth is ready right now
to rejoin the Federation.

918
00:57:12,639 --> 00:57:15,934
And nothing could make me happier
than to say those words.

919
00:57:16,017 --> 00:57:17,226
Thank you.

920
00:57:17,310 --> 00:57:18,394
Thank you, all,

921
00:57:18,978 --> 00:57:21,189
what you have accomplished here.

922
00:57:21,272 --> 00:57:22,899
We were lucky to have each other, ma'am.

923
00:57:24,275 --> 00:57:26,027
We couldn't have succeeded otherwise.

924
00:57:26,110 --> 00:57:28,738
General, I'm glad to see you've recovered.

925
00:57:28,821 --> 00:57:32,367
Yes. I haven't had that
close a call in quite a while.

926
00:57:32,450 --> 00:57:36,913
I would consider it a personal favor
if that were your last close call.

927
00:57:37,538 --> 00:57:39,958
I am ever at your service,
Madam President.

928
00:57:40,959 --> 00:57:43,252
- Captain, may I have a word?
- Of course.

929
00:57:47,590 --> 00:57:49,968
I can only imagine what you're feeling,

930
00:57:50,051 --> 00:57:53,596
having lived in a time
before Earth left the Federation.

931
00:57:54,222 --> 00:57:56,808
It means a lot to all of us.

932
00:57:57,725 --> 00:58:02,313
But, yes, it's very special to me
to get to welcome you home.

933
00:58:02,397 --> 00:58:03,481
Thank you.

934
00:58:04,357 --> 00:58:07,735
Bringing the Federation back
together again has been a great start.

935
00:58:08,277 --> 00:58:11,489
But there are countless worlds
out there to still be explored.

936
00:58:11,572 --> 00:58:15,576
So many are looking
for understanding, connection,

937
00:58:16,244 --> 00:58:17,870
better tomorrow.

938
00:58:17,954 --> 00:58:20,039
There's a lot of work to do.

939
00:58:20,123 --> 00:58:21,666
Are you ready for that?

940
00:58:22,709 --> 00:58:23,709
I am.

941
00:58:25,044 --> 00:58:26,129
Let's get to it.
