<i>Previously
on</i> Star Trek: Discovery...

2
00:00:09,139 --> 00:00:10,271
Mr. Saru.

3
00:00:10,314 --> 00:00:12,012
I hope I'm not disturbing you.

4
00:00:12,055 --> 00:00:14,797
Not at all. It is always
a pleasure to hear from you.

5
00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:16,059
Do you have feelings for her?

6
00:00:16,103 --> 00:00:17,800
Perhaps I do.

7
00:00:17,843 --> 00:00:20,237
The power source
that controls the device,

8
00:00:20,281 --> 00:00:22,326
I need it to go home.

9
00:00:22,370 --> 00:00:24,502
- A place where we could be free.
- Who's "we"?

10
00:00:24,546 --> 00:00:26,896
A friend.

11
00:00:26,939 --> 00:00:28,506
A scientist, like me.

12
00:00:28,550 --> 00:00:30,334
I took what I learned
about the device

13
00:00:30,378 --> 00:00:33,642
at the center of the DMA
and designed this,

14
00:00:33,685 --> 00:00:36,123
a weapon capable
of destroying it.

15
00:00:36,166 --> 00:00:38,081
BURNHAM: And what I'm about
to propose is a plan

16
00:00:38,125 --> 00:00:40,083
President Rillak
and Admiral Vance approved.

17
00:00:40,127 --> 00:00:41,693
If that fails,

18
00:00:41,737 --> 00:00:44,044
they'll back your plan
to destroy the controller.

19
00:00:44,087 --> 00:00:46,959
We'll stand down for a week.

20
00:00:47,003 --> 00:00:48,803
- What are you doing?
- I'm being clearheaded.

21
00:00:48,831 --> 00:00:49,875
No!

22
00:00:52,791 --> 00:00:54,750
TARKA: It's not here.
The power source...

23
00:00:54,793 --> 00:00:57,144
It's powered from the other side
of the wormhole.

24
00:00:57,187 --> 00:00:58,797
Outside the galaxy.

25
00:00:58,841 --> 00:01:01,539
A new DMA has appeared?

26
00:01:01,583 --> 00:01:03,933
- In the exact same place.
- What happens now?

27
00:01:03,976 --> 00:01:05,650
The admiral's implementing
emergency protocols

28
00:01:05,674 --> 00:01:07,284
in case of retaliation.

29
00:01:08,633 --> 00:01:10,766
We're fast-tracking
the first contact mission.

30
00:01:14,900 --> 00:01:18,904
Whatever we think we know
about Species Ten-C,

31
00:01:18,948 --> 00:01:21,429
we're wrong.

32
00:01:21,472 --> 00:01:26,869
However we think first contact
will go, it won't.

33
00:01:26,912 --> 00:01:29,698
The fact that the DMA controller
was destroyed

34
00:01:29,741 --> 00:01:33,441
then reappeared
tells us nothing concrete.

35
00:01:33,484 --> 00:01:37,271
Our mere arrival
could be perceived

36
00:01:37,314 --> 00:01:39,403
as an act of aggression.

37
00:01:39,447 --> 00:01:42,450
We did attack their technology
with an isolytic weapon.

38
00:01:42,493 --> 00:01:43,973
We did not.

39
00:01:44,016 --> 00:01:46,193
Tarka and Booker
acted unilaterally.

40
00:01:46,236 --> 00:01:48,543
BURNHAM: How would the Ten-C
know the difference?

41
00:01:48,586 --> 00:01:50,893
We have to find a way
to communicate the distinction.

42
00:01:50,936 --> 00:01:52,740
NDOYE: Isn't that what all these
translators are for?

43
00:01:52,764 --> 00:01:56,594
KOVICH: No, they're here in case
you feel like translating

44
00:01:56,638 --> 00:01:59,554
confirmation bias
from Federation Standard

45
00:01:59,597 --> 00:02:00,772
into Klingon.

46
00:02:00,816 --> 00:02:02,296
[laughs]

47
00:02:05,908 --> 00:02:07,736
Confirmation bias.

48
00:02:07,779 --> 00:02:10,782
He's saying the universal
translator's been so successful

49
00:02:10,826 --> 00:02:15,396
because we tend to look for
and find what's familiar to us.

50
00:02:15,439 --> 00:02:18,312
Species that communicate
verbally, for example.

51
00:02:18,355 --> 00:02:20,618
But since we know nothing
about the Ten-C,

52
00:02:20,662 --> 00:02:24,405
it's naive to assume
the translator would even work.

53
00:02:29,105 --> 00:02:30,585
It was funny.

54
00:02:31,934 --> 00:02:35,720
Dr. Hirai is a specialist
in astrolinguistics,

55
00:02:35,764 --> 00:02:39,637
uh, xenophonology
and theoretical semiotics.

56
00:02:39,681 --> 00:02:40,899
T'RINA: If I may,

57
00:02:40,943 --> 00:02:43,424
the very purpose
of this task force

58
00:02:43,467 --> 00:02:47,254
is to establish the parameters
for successful communications.

59
00:02:47,297 --> 00:02:48,927
Are you both now suggesting
that may be impossible?

60
00:02:48,951 --> 00:02:50,518
KOVICH: Vulcan surveyed Earth

61
00:02:50,561 --> 00:02:53,869
for almost a century
before making first contact.

62
00:02:53,912 --> 00:02:56,915
<i>Discovery</i> leaves
in fewer than 24 hours.

63
00:02:56,959 --> 00:02:59,309
We have to start the
communication process somewhere.

64
00:02:59,353 --> 00:03:01,224
The oversight committee
has questions.

65
00:03:01,268 --> 00:03:02,921
As do the planetary delegates.

66
00:03:02,965 --> 00:03:05,054
It's nice that
they're all so eager

67
00:03:05,097 --> 00:03:08,057
for a three-hour tour
outside the galaxy.

68
00:03:08,100 --> 00:03:10,451
It will take longer
than three hours.

69
00:03:10,494 --> 00:03:11,887
Figure of speech.

70
00:03:11,930 --> 00:03:13,628
Ah.

71
00:03:13,671 --> 00:03:15,369
Point being,

72
00:03:15,412 --> 00:03:19,242
I understand their emotional
desire to be present

73
00:03:19,286 --> 00:03:20,635
when we make contact.

74
00:03:20,678 --> 00:03:22,289
I wish I could be there myself.

75
00:03:22,332 --> 00:03:24,726
- You're not coming?
- Unfortunately,

76
00:03:24,769 --> 00:03:27,859
there are other urgent matters
that I must attend to.

77
00:03:27,903 --> 00:03:31,298
I cannot fathom anything
even remotely as urgent as this.

78
00:03:31,341 --> 00:03:33,406
- KOVICH: And I intend to keep it that way.
- [speaks indistinctly]

79
00:03:33,430 --> 00:03:35,780
You're in good hands
with Dr. Hirai.

80
00:03:37,086 --> 00:03:38,609
Uh, Madam President, Admiral.

81
00:03:38,653 --> 00:03:39,958
If you'll come with me.

82
00:03:41,308 --> 00:03:43,614
STAMETS: Scan data shows
that the new DMA controller

83
00:03:43,658 --> 00:03:47,749
is the same size
but significantly more powerful

84
00:03:47,792 --> 00:03:50,012
than the one that Tarka
and Book destroyed.

85
00:03:50,055 --> 00:03:53,233
It's churning through space
at a much faster rate.

86
00:03:53,276 --> 00:03:55,670
How long before it moves
to a new harvesting location?

87
00:03:55,713 --> 00:03:57,367
12 hours at most.

88
00:03:57,411 --> 00:03:59,151
VANCE:
Are we looking at a precursor

89
00:03:59,195 --> 00:04:00,675
for a retaliatory attack?

90
00:04:00,718 --> 00:04:03,373
There's no way to know, sir.

91
00:04:03,417 --> 00:04:05,114
RILLAK:
Any word from Mr. Booker?

92
00:04:05,157 --> 00:04:07,769
He and Tarka cannot escalate
this situation further.

93
00:04:07,812 --> 00:04:09,007
I have not heard
from him, ma'am.

94
00:04:09,031 --> 00:04:10,772
But given the new timetable,

95
00:04:10,815 --> 00:04:13,209
I think we should make first
contact as soon as possible.

96
00:04:13,253 --> 00:04:15,298
A number of delegates
are still on their way,

97
00:04:15,342 --> 00:04:17,822
including the representative
from Ni'Var.

98
00:04:21,261 --> 00:04:24,133
But I agree,
we can't afford to wait.

99
00:04:24,176 --> 00:04:26,527
How soon can you
be ready, Captain?

100
00:04:26,570 --> 00:04:27,876
Two hours.

101
00:04:27,919 --> 00:04:29,660
To finish loading
and to give my crew

102
00:04:29,704 --> 00:04:31,836
time to say their goodbyes.

103
00:04:32,837 --> 00:04:33,969
Two hours it is.

104
00:04:34,012 --> 00:04:36,754
Yes, sir. Madam President.

105
00:04:47,939 --> 00:04:50,333
It's a hell of a thing.

106
00:04:50,377 --> 00:04:52,074
RILLAK:
Yes, it is.

107
00:04:56,992 --> 00:04:59,560
Admiral, it's my constitutional
duty to inform you

108
00:04:59,603 --> 00:05:02,389
that I'm transferring power
to the vice president.

109
00:05:04,739 --> 00:05:06,175
Excuse me?

110
00:05:06,218 --> 00:05:08,090
I'll be joining the mission.

111
00:05:08,133 --> 00:05:09,744
Madam President, you...

112
00:05:09,787 --> 00:05:13,051
I was the Federation's
top ambassador for 20 years.

113
00:05:13,095 --> 00:05:17,317
Given the complexities
that we'll face,

114
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:19,841
I believe my skills
will be needed.

115
00:05:19,884 --> 00:05:22,757
They're leaving the galaxy.
We've never done that.

116
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:24,387
You know as well as I do, <i>
Discovery</i> might not

117
00:05:24,411 --> 00:05:25,977
be coming back from this.

118
00:05:26,021 --> 00:05:28,284
Which is why
I am counting on you

119
00:05:28,328 --> 00:05:31,287
to support the vice president
in my absence.

120
00:05:33,245 --> 00:05:35,857
However long it may be.

121
00:05:37,337 --> 00:05:39,469
Laira.

122
00:05:39,513 --> 00:05:41,210
You are the Federation now.

123
00:05:42,211 --> 00:05:43,560
What your presence means,

124
00:05:43,604 --> 00:05:45,388
what you represent...

125
00:05:45,432 --> 00:05:47,390
Makes it all the more crucial

126
00:05:47,434 --> 00:05:51,046
that I be there
when we make contact.

127
00:05:54,919 --> 00:05:57,008
I can't talk you
out of this, can I?

128
00:05:57,052 --> 00:05:58,706
No.

129
00:05:58,749 --> 00:06:01,448
But you have gotten us
through so much.

130
00:06:01,491 --> 00:06:04,625
Wherever the DMA
goes next, what...

131
00:06:04,668 --> 00:06:06,670
whatever is to come...

132
00:06:08,629 --> 00:06:11,458
I know you'll get us
through that, too.

133
00:06:16,114 --> 00:06:18,465
Found a habitable planet
nearby for you.

134
00:06:18,508 --> 00:06:20,118
They haven't discovered
electricity yet,

135
00:06:20,162 --> 00:06:22,338
but you'll do fine.

136
00:06:22,382 --> 00:06:24,601
Here's your bag.
We'll be there in a few minutes.

137
00:06:24,645 --> 00:06:26,124
Hold on.

138
00:06:26,168 --> 00:06:27,928
I understand that you're
a little upset, but...

139
00:06:27,952 --> 00:06:30,496
The DMA's back and more powerful
because you wouldn't stand down.

140
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:34,176
All evidence pointed
to an internal power source.

141
00:06:34,219 --> 00:06:38,310
That's science.
Hypothesize, test, iterate.

142
00:06:38,354 --> 00:06:40,312
Now, thanks to me,
we know the power source

143
00:06:40,356 --> 00:06:43,446
has to be outside the galaxy,
within the Ten-C's hyperfield.

144
00:06:43,490 --> 00:06:44,969
You're welcome.

145
00:06:45,013 --> 00:06:46,512
And just to be clear,
I didn't stand down

146
00:06:46,536 --> 00:06:48,712
because I was
following our plan.

147
00:06:48,756 --> 00:06:50,235
We both acted unilaterally,

148
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:52,020
but only one of us
put more lives at risk.

149
00:06:52,063 --> 00:06:54,065
I got the hyperfield
coordinates from Haz.

150
00:06:55,676 --> 00:06:57,634
I'm stopping the DMA
before it moves again.

151
00:06:57,678 --> 00:07:00,550
And how do you expect to get
through the galactic barrier?

152
00:07:00,594 --> 00:07:02,596
You must know
the mycelial network

153
00:07:02,639 --> 00:07:04,075
can't exist in there, right?

154
00:07:04,119 --> 00:07:05,947
You have to jump up
as close as you can get.

155
00:07:05,990 --> 00:07:08,776
The barrier has some
especially nasty sections.

156
00:07:08,819 --> 00:07:10,536
The negative energy
will eat through shields

157
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:13,389
and fry a frontal cortex
like that.

158
00:07:13,433 --> 00:07:16,697
But surely you have a plan.

159
00:07:16,740 --> 00:07:18,133
I'll figure something out.

160
00:07:18,176 --> 00:07:19,502
Assuming you make it,

321
00:16:27,334 --> 00:16:29,510
It was decided that
Ni'Var must be represented,

322
00:16:29,553 --> 00:16:31,381
even if by its president.

323
00:16:31,425 --> 00:16:33,253
SARU:
I see.

324
00:16:33,296 --> 00:16:34,696
Do not let me delay you
any further.

325
00:16:39,041 --> 00:16:41,174
You said something to her,
didn't you?

326
00:16:41,217 --> 00:16:43,132
Good for you.

327
00:16:43,176 --> 00:16:46,483
I would never have done so had
I known she would be joining us.

328
00:16:46,527 --> 00:16:49,443
That we would see each other
in meetings every single day.

329
00:16:49,486 --> 00:16:51,619
Oh, beginnings can be messy.
That's all right.

330
00:16:51,662 --> 00:16:53,490
Ah, I cannot envision

331
00:16:53,534 --> 00:16:56,058
any situation more awkward
than this.

332
00:16:56,102 --> 00:16:57,451
When I first met Paul,

333
00:16:57,494 --> 00:17:00,454
those blue eyes,
I'm telling you.

334
00:17:00,497 --> 00:17:01,997
Anyway, I thought
I'd totally blown it.

335
00:17:02,021 --> 00:17:03,761
I obsessed over every word.

336
00:17:03,805 --> 00:17:08,070
He was... so brilliant,
and blunt.

337
00:17:08,114 --> 00:17:09,550
Anyhow, it's not just you.

338
00:17:09,593 --> 00:17:11,856
Insecurity is universal,
and totally normal.

339
00:17:11,900 --> 00:17:13,554
It's okay.

340
00:17:15,469 --> 00:17:18,080
Oh, it is helpful to realize

341
00:17:18,124 --> 00:17:22,606
that I am not alone in being
made foolish by such feelings.

342
00:17:22,650 --> 00:17:24,391
I am grateful you shared.

343
00:17:24,434 --> 00:17:26,610
- So am I.
- Now, let us inform the delegates.

344
00:17:26,654 --> 00:17:29,178
They will want news of our delay
as soon as possible.

345
00:17:37,665 --> 00:17:40,122
BOOK: You said we couldn't beam up
the programmable antimatter.

346
00:17:40,146 --> 00:17:42,278
I don't see any
shield generators here.

347
00:17:42,322 --> 00:17:45,890
This friend of yours
who told you about this place,

348
00:17:45,934 --> 00:17:47,283
who was he, exactly?

349
00:17:47,327 --> 00:17:48,850
Doesn't matter.

350
00:17:55,335 --> 00:17:57,946
[phaser whirring]

351
00:17:57,989 --> 00:17:59,600
What the hell
are you playing at?

352
00:17:59,643 --> 00:18:01,317
- What?
- You think I don't know an Emerald Chain

353
00:18:01,341 --> 00:18:02,690
work camp when I see one?

354
00:18:02,733 --> 00:18:04,518
- It's not what you think.
- Then what is it?

355
00:18:05,867 --> 00:18:07,912
<i>MALE [over speaker]:
Attention, cell breach.</i>

356
00:18:07,956 --> 00:18:09,523
<i>Attention, cell breach.</i>

357
00:18:11,046 --> 00:18:12,874
- What are you keeping from me?
- Nothing.

358
00:18:12,917 --> 00:18:14,832
- Answer me!
- Nothing.

359
00:18:14,876 --> 00:18:18,140
Listen to me. The camp has been
out of commission for years.

360
00:18:23,928 --> 00:18:26,496
BOOK: It was here, wasn't it?
Where you were held prisoner?

361
00:18:28,455 --> 00:18:30,152
We're not going anywhere
until you tell me.

362
00:18:31,980 --> 00:18:33,851
Yes, it was here.

363
00:18:34,852 --> 00:18:36,680
<i>Almost ten years ago.</i>

364
00:18:39,988 --> 00:18:41,772
You're interrupting my work.

365
00:18:41,816 --> 00:18:43,992
GUARD: Osyraa wants to fast-track
your design.

366
00:18:44,035 --> 00:18:46,429
Since you lost your last helper,
she's giving you a new one.

367
00:18:54,045 --> 00:18:55,917
A real charmer, that one.

368
00:19:03,142 --> 00:19:05,840
Impressive design.

369
00:19:05,883 --> 00:19:10,018
It's a dilithium-alternative
engine, right?

370
00:19:10,061 --> 00:19:12,412
They've had me
working on one, too.

371
00:19:14,805 --> 00:19:17,330
But those equations
are for something else.

372
00:19:19,419 --> 00:19:22,378
I didn't ask for help.

373
00:19:22,422 --> 00:19:25,294
Well, I didn't ask to be here,
but lucky for you, I am.

374
00:19:25,338 --> 00:19:27,514
Where am I supposed to sleep?

375
00:19:33,998 --> 00:19:37,611
This... uh, good spot.

376
00:19:39,656 --> 00:19:42,311
How long you been here?

377
00:19:42,355 --> 00:19:46,576
I'd rather not engage
in personal conversation.

378
00:19:46,620 --> 00:19:49,840
Just work, then.
That's fine by me.

379
00:19:53,409 --> 00:19:55,759
<i>BOOK: The scientist friend
you told me about,</i>

380
00:19:55,803 --> 00:19:57,892
this was him?

381
00:19:57,935 --> 00:20:01,112
Oros.

382
00:20:01,156 --> 00:20:03,202
His name was Oros.

383
00:20:03,245 --> 00:20:05,116
We weren't friends at first.

384
00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:09,599
But it was a relief to have
someone to talk to again.

385
00:20:09,643 --> 00:20:11,645
For both of us.

386
00:20:11,688 --> 00:20:13,342
You should rest.

387
00:20:13,386 --> 00:20:15,605
You can't work
all day and all night.

388
00:20:17,085 --> 00:20:18,565
I'm fine.

389
00:20:21,959 --> 00:20:23,352
What are you working on?

390
00:20:23,396 --> 00:20:26,616
Just running some numbers.

391
00:20:26,660 --> 00:20:30,446
Looks like galactic
proper-distance equations,

392
00:20:30,490 --> 00:20:33,580
but there's a variable
you're using I don't recognize.

393
00:20:35,712 --> 00:20:37,714
I was alone in a cell.

394
00:20:37,758 --> 00:20:40,282
Had to pass the time somehow.
I ran numbers, too.

395
00:20:42,284 --> 00:20:45,287
A lot of time, a lot of numbers.

396
00:20:46,375 --> 00:20:49,335
How long were you alone for?

397
00:20:49,378 --> 00:20:50,684
I lost track.

398
00:20:50,727 --> 00:20:54,383
Four, five years?

399
00:20:54,427 --> 00:20:57,734
I used to talk to myself.

400
00:20:57,778 --> 00:21:00,694
Narrate the day.

401
00:21:00,737 --> 00:21:03,305
Just to hear words aloud,
you know?

402
00:21:03,349 --> 00:21:07,440
So you're out of practice
being with others,

403
00:21:07,483 --> 00:21:09,311
and respecting boundaries.

404
00:21:09,355 --> 00:21:10,791
[laughs]

405
00:21:10,834 --> 00:21:13,794
Yeah, you could say that.

406
00:21:13,837 --> 00:21:15,274
I'm sorry.

407
00:21:17,798 --> 00:21:19,452
I understand.

408
00:21:21,932 --> 00:21:26,154
I have a trick to fall asleep.
Want to hear it?

409
00:21:26,197 --> 00:21:29,288
[exhales]
Sure.

410
00:21:29,331 --> 00:21:33,204
I list the digits
of the golden ratio.

411
00:21:33,248 --> 00:21:35,424
[chuckles]
That's too easy.

412
00:21:35,468 --> 00:21:38,558
Fine, every third digit. Eight.

413
00:21:38,601 --> 00:21:39,733
Three.

414
00:21:39,776 --> 00:21:41,038
Eight.

415
00:21:41,082 --> 00:21:42,910
Nine.

416
00:21:42,953 --> 00:21:44,085
Four.

417
00:21:45,086 --> 00:21:46,740
Eight.

418
00:21:46,783 --> 00:21:48,219
Four.

419
00:21:49,220 --> 00:21:50,483
Six.

420
00:21:50,526 --> 00:21:52,006
Four.

421
00:22:04,410 --> 00:22:07,326
<i>It took a year, but eventually
we became friends.</i>

422
00:22:07,369 --> 00:22:10,590
Under Osyraa and the Chain,
we were all we had.

423
00:22:12,548 --> 00:22:14,071
I know something about that.

424
00:22:14,115 --> 00:22:15,899
I figured you might.

425
00:22:15,943 --> 00:22:19,338
Let's get the antimatter
and get out of here.

426
00:22:19,381 --> 00:22:20,730
How much further?

427
00:22:20,774 --> 00:22:22,906
It's just beyond the trees.

428
00:22:23,907 --> 00:22:25,431
[phaser powers down]

429
00:22:33,439 --> 00:22:36,180
Commander Detmer, how soon until
we reach the galactic barrier?

430
00:22:36,224 --> 00:22:38,095
Coming out of warp now, Captain.

431
00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:59,116
So that's the edge
of the galaxy.

432
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:02,076
Is it wrong that I think
that's pretty damn cool?

433
00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:05,209
Frontiers are always cool,
Mr. Rhys.

434
00:23:05,253 --> 00:23:07,255
If only we could enjoy it.

435
00:23:08,474 --> 00:23:10,258
But we have a job to do.

436
00:23:10,301 --> 00:23:11,955
Double-check shield systems

437
00:23:11,999 --> 00:23:15,089
and run a multiphasic scan
on the barrier itself.

438
00:23:15,132 --> 00:23:16,873
I want to know
what we're heading into

439
00:23:16,917 --> 00:23:19,069
and how to get ourselves and
everyone out quickly and safely.

440
00:23:19,093 --> 00:23:21,443
- Let's get to it.
- ALL: Aye, Captain.

441
00:23:29,146 --> 00:23:31,279
- Status report?
- Shields are ready, Captain.

442
00:23:31,322 --> 00:23:32,933
All other systems are nominal.

443
00:23:32,976 --> 00:23:35,762
- Mr. Saru?
- Well, unfortunately,

444
00:23:35,805 --> 00:23:38,417
scans show that the density
of negative particles

445
00:23:38,460 --> 00:23:42,333
in this sector are significantly
higher than predicted.

446
00:23:42,377 --> 00:23:43,061
Meaning what?

447
00:23:43,085 --> 00:23:45,162
Our shields may not
hold as long as expected,

448
00:23:45,206 --> 00:23:47,513
even with
the antimatter upgrades.

449
00:23:47,556 --> 00:23:49,515
- Commander Stamets.
- Already on it, Captain.

450
00:23:49,558 --> 00:23:51,038
And when this is all over,

451
00:23:51,081 --> 00:23:53,040
you should thank Heisenberg
instead of us.

452
00:23:53,083 --> 00:23:55,346
Noted. What's your suggestion?

453
00:23:55,390 --> 00:23:59,089
Vacuum-state fluctuations
are creating discrete bubbles

454
00:23:59,133 --> 00:24:00,700
<i>of protected space
that pass through</i>

<i>the galactic barrier

456
00:24:03,050 --> 00:24:05,879
Spacial cells,
for lack of a better term.

457
00:24:05,922 --> 00:24:09,491
If we can position <i>Discovery</i>
inside of one,

458
00:24:09,535 --> 00:24:11,101
<i>we should be able
to safely ride it</i>

459
00:24:11,145 --> 00:24:12,601
<i>through to the other side
of the barrier.</i>

460
00:24:12,625 --> 00:24:14,254
Okay, but I don't see
a lot of consistency

461
00:24:14,278 --> 00:24:15,802
<i>amongst the spacial cells.</i>

462
00:24:15,845 --> 00:24:18,500
Neither do we, Captain.
95% are too unstable.

463
00:24:18,544 --> 00:24:21,198
Yeah, those are the ones
that are showing up gray scale.

464
00:24:21,242 --> 00:24:24,332
<i>Negative energy isn't allowing
them to reach equilibrium</i>

465
00:24:24,375 --> 00:24:26,769
<i>and settle into
a fixed spectrum emission.</i>

466
00:24:26,813 --> 00:24:29,468
So the colorful ones
are our best bet.

467
00:24:29,511 --> 00:24:31,252
<i>Yeah, should be.</i>

468
00:24:31,295 --> 00:24:32,925
<i>Zora found one nearby
that's forming right now.</i>

469
00:24:32,949 --> 00:24:34,342
<i>Sending the coordinates.</i>

470
00:24:34,385 --> 00:24:36,083
Commander Detmer, plot a course.

471
00:24:36,126 --> 00:24:37,669
Let's get through the barrier
as fast as we can.

472
00:24:37,693 --> 00:24:39,434
It'll be bumpy.

473
00:24:39,478 --> 00:24:42,002
- Red alert.
- [alarm sounds]

474
00:24:53,709 --> 00:24:56,669
- [Burnham grunts]
- We're inside the barrier.

475
00:24:59,933 --> 00:25:02,413
SARU: You may notice a shift
in your visible spectra.

476
00:25:02,457 --> 00:25:03,632
BURNHAM: No kidding.

477
00:25:03,676 --> 00:25:04,696
SARU: It will return to normal

478
00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:05,808
once we reach a cell

479
00:25:05,852 --> 00:25:06,983

Shields dropping to 85%.

The cell is not yet large
enough to hold us, Captain.

This is not an ideal time,
Madam President.

501
00:25:59,253 --> 00:26:01,734
I received a classified message
as we entered the barrier.

Marked urgent, our eyes only.
It's being decrypted now.

Whoever it is, they're cloaked.

509
00:26:29,849 --> 00:26:32,547
It's a courier model.
Must be here to scavenge.

510

And if they're flying that low,
it's not the first time.

What if they found
the antimatter?

512
00:26:36,682 --> 00:26:38,466
It was hidden

When was that?

514

- Three.

Six. [scoffs]

No. Damn it. Two.

he's not hard on himself,

You're okay.

Why did you...

542
00:28:06,293 --> 00:28:08,687
You didn't have to do that.

543
00:28:14,736 --> 00:28:17,608
I never had
a real friend before.

You were right, you know.

545
00:28:26,226 --> 00:28:28,707
About what?

546
00:28:28,750 --> 00:28:31,274
About the equations.

547
00:28:31,318 --> 00:28:34,669
The variable is
for multiverse positioning.

548
00:28:37,541 --> 00:28:39,805
I have a way out of here.

549
00:28:39,848 --> 00:28:42,068
There is no way out of here.

Not with this.

551
00:28:46,420 --> 00:28:48,378
True.

If one is traveling
within this universe.

553
00:28:55,298 --> 00:28:58,214
You're working on
an interdimensional transporter?

554
00:28:58,258 --> 00:29:00,782
I've been designing it
for years.

555
00:29:00,826 --> 00:29:03,524
But the power required
to successfully target

556
00:29:03,567 --> 00:29:05,265
a specific universe, that's...

557
00:29:05,308 --> 00:29:09,399
This camp runs off of a massive
geothermal energy source.

558
00:29:09,443 --> 00:29:12,794
Combined with power from the
warp core that we're building,

559
00:29:12,838 --> 00:29:14,578
it could be enough.

560
00:29:14,622 --> 00:29:16,798
Where would you go?

561
00:29:16,842 --> 00:29:18,321
Kayalise.

562
00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:24,588
It means something
like... "home."

563
00:29:27,330 --> 00:29:28,723
My people say that Kayalise

564
00:29:28,767 --> 00:29:31,552
is a place beyond suffering.

565
00:29:31,595 --> 00:29:34,816
It's long been part
of our cultural history.

566
00:29:34,860 --> 00:29:37,863
And out of all of
the possible universes,

567
00:29:37,906 --> 00:29:41,083
it is said to be
the most peaceful.

568
00:29:41,127 --> 00:29:44,608
I've been searching
for it for years,

569
00:29:44,652 --> 00:29:48,656
and my calculations prove
that it's real.

570
00:29:48,699 --> 00:29:51,398
That sounds like paradise.

571
00:29:51,441 --> 00:29:54,270
You could come with me.

572
00:29:56,229 --> 00:29:58,361
If you want.

573
00:30:03,279 --> 00:30:06,456
Come on.
Let's get this over with.

574
00:30:07,675 --> 00:30:11,331
President Rillak,
Captain Burnham.

575
00:30:11,374 --> 00:30:15,117
I hope this reaches you before
you move out of comms range.

576
00:30:15,161 --> 00:30:17,293
I'm sorry to report that the DMA

577
00:30:17,337 --> 00:30:20,557
has just moved to a new
harvesting location

578
00:30:20,601 --> 00:30:22,472
in the Alpha Quadrant.

579
00:30:22,516 --> 00:30:24,692
I've attached all data
that we have.

580
00:30:24,735 --> 00:30:26,694
Based on its current trajectory,

581
00:30:26,737 --> 00:30:29,131
we expect debris hit
by the gravitational wave

582
00:30:29,175 --> 00:30:31,046
to begin impacting
Ni'Var and Earth

583
00:30:31,090 --> 00:30:32,569
in the next few days.

584
00:30:32,613 --> 00:30:35,181
71 hours by our best estimation.

585
00:30:35,224 --> 00:30:37,531
I'm sending ships
to evacuate, but...

588
00:30:42,666 --> 00:30:43,885
We need to go back.

589
00:30:43,929 --> 00:30:45,756
We can't afford to do that.
Not now.

590
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:49,108
We have to stay the course.
We have to get to the Ten-C.

- I need to tell my crew.
- No.

592
00:30:50,979 --> 00:30:53,286
No. News like this will spread
faster than we can control.

593
00:30:53,329 --> 00:30:56,071
This-this has to remain
classified until...

594
00:30:56,115 --> 00:30:57,638
Telling them is my prerogative.

595

Assembling this delegation
was delicate work.

596

Earth is home
for so many of my crew.

Our spacial cell has drifted
into a cluster of 42 others.

601

It's like a traffic jam.

- What can we do here?
- DETMER: Not much.

603
00:31:23,577 --> 00:31:26,145
I can't control the trajectory
of the cell we're in.

604
00:31:26,188 --> 00:31:27,668
How long will this take
to clear?

605
00:31:27,711 --> 00:31:31,411
It could be moments,
hours or weeks.

606
00:31:31,454 --> 00:31:34,675
In the meantime, it would seem
we have no choice but to wait.

if we use the cells

and then move quickly through
them before they collapse.

621
00:32:08,927 --> 00:32:10,774
Moving through the unstable

00:49:43,937 --> 00:49:47,027
we had the chance to...

971
00:49:47,071 --> 00:49:48,898
connect

972
00:49:48,942 --> 00:49:51,466
before we approach
Species Ten-C.

973
00:49:51,510 --> 00:49:53,077
If we can't communicate
with each other,

974
00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:55,296
what chance
do we have with them?

975
00:49:58,082 --> 00:49:59,822
Hmm.

976
00:50:00,954 --> 00:50:04,088
What do you think we'll find
when we get to the hyperfield?

977
00:50:05,089 --> 00:50:07,047
BURNHAM:
I have no idea.

978
00:50:07,091 --> 00:50:08,875
But we have to succeed.

979
00:50:08,918 --> 00:50:10,268
We have to.

980
00:50:10,311 --> 00:50:12,357
