NARRATOR: Last time on
Star Trek: The Next Generation:
2
00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:08,688
"You are hereby requested
and required
3
00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:10,604
to relinquish command
of your vessel
4
00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:14,048
to Captain Edward Jellico,
commanding officer, USS Cairo
5
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:15,401
as of this date."
6
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:17,568
I want this ship ready for action,
7
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:20,644
and I don't have time
to give Will Riker
8
00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:23,041
or anyone else a chance.
9
00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:25,168
And forgive me for being blunt,
10
00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:27,442
but the Enterprise is mine now.
11
00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:35,967
Our orders are to penetrate
this Celtris Ill installation.
12
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:41,326
It's a trap. Come on!
13
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:49,770
[GRUNTING]
14
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:53,081
Let's go.
15
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:54,645
- The captain.
- No.
16
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,451
There are five more of them
heading this way from another tunnel.
17
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:08,040
You should prove
an interesting challenge.
18
00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:12,844
Possibly the most interesting to come
through that door in many years.
19
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:16,288
- What do you want?
- Why, you, of course.
20
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:20,686
NARRATOR:
And now the conclusion.
21
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,366
GUL MADRED:
Your place of birth?
22
00:01:24,960 --> 00:01:26,883
La Barre, France.
23
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:31,204
- Mother's name?
- Yvette Gessard.
24
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,808
He's ready.
Keep the serum at that level.
25
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:39,485
What is your current assignment?
26
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:43,522
Special operations on Celtris Ill.
27
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,520
What is your mission on Celtris Ill?
28
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,923
To seek and destroy
a metagenic weapon.
29
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,691
How many others
were part of this mission?
30
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:55,770
- Two.
- Name and rank.
31
00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,923
Chief Medical Officer
Beverly Crusher.
32
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,321
Lieutenant Worf.
33
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:07,084
What are the Federation's
defense plans for Minos Korva?
34
00:02:08,640 --> 00:02:10,449
I don't know.
35
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:14,887
Increase the level slightly to 0.31.
36
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:20,561
Let's begin again, shall we?
37
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:25,248
- Name'?
- Hoard, Jean-Luca.
38
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:30,088
- Place of birth?
- La Barre, France.

PICARD:
Space, the final frontier.
41
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:06,685
These are the voyages
of the starship Enterprise.
42
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:12,131
Its continuing mission:
to explore strange new worlds,
43
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:16,729
to seek out new life,
and new civilizations,
44
00:03:16,920 --> 00:03:20,811
to boldly go where no one
has gone before.
45
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:22,885
J E LL I CO:
Captain's log, stardate 46360.8.
46
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:26,169
The negotiations with the Cardassians
have made little progress.
47
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:30,245
I believe a military confrontation
may be unavoidable.
48
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:34,365
Gul Lemec, I assure you that
what the Federation wants above all
49
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:36,682
is the preservation of peace.
50
00:04:36,840 --> 00:04:39,241
Then how do you explain the fact
that a Federation team
51
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:41,050
launched an unprovoked assault
52
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:44,522
on Cardassian territory
less than 14 hours ago?
53
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:46,604
I don't know
what you're talking about.
54
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:48,650
Then let me explain.
55
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:54,530
Captain Jean-Luc Picard,
56
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:56,887
Lieutenant Worf
and Dr. Beverly Crusher
57
00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:58,565
landed on Celtris Ill,
58
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,724
attacked one of our outposts
in a brutal assault,
59
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:06,442
and killed over 55 men,
women and children.
60
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,722
- What evidence do you have of that?
- We have all the evidence we need.
61
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:12,891
We have Captain Picard.
62
00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:15,801
Is he alive?
63
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:19,371
The Cardassian Union
64
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:22,723
has yet to decide
how it will respond to this
65
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,481
latest provocation.
66
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,481
But rest assured,
67
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,402
we will respond.
68
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:42,849
Is there any truth
in what he's saying?
69
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,765
Captain Picard and the others
were sent to investigate reports
70
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,685
of a metagenic weapon on Celtris Ill.
71
00:05:48,840 --> 00:05:52,811
It's possible that they
may have been captured.
72
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:57,446
But if they did escape,
they'll head for the Lyshan system.
73
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:00,604
The Enterprise is supposed
to meet them there in eight hours.
74
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:06,369
Will, I want you to take a shuttlecraft
and head for the rendezvous point.
75
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:08,249
The Enterprise
will have to remain here
76
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,449
until the endgame
with Gul Lemec is played out.
77
00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:13,210
Aye, sir.
78
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:26,724
Captain Picard.
79
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,366
I demand to see
a neutral representative, as required
80
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,046
by the Federation-Cardassian
peace treaty.
81
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,251
We have already sent
a message to Tohvun Ill,
82
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,083
the nearest neutral planet.
83
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:46,210
They assure us they will dispatch
someone immediately.
84
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,726
Will you allow me
to remove your restraints?
85
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:07,487
I understand that you are a student
of archeology.
86
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,644
Did you know that Cardassia
boasts some of the most ancient
87
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:14,202
and splendid ruins
in the entire galaxy?
88
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:21,724
I know that the burial vaults
of the First Hebitian civilization
89
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,362
are said to be magnificent.
90
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:28,844
Apparently, when they were first
unearthed 200 years ago, they were.
91
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,368
The burial vaults contained
unimaginably beautiful artifacts
92
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:38,801
made ofjevonite,
a rare, breathtaking stone.
93
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:42,361
But most of those objects are gone.
94
00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:45,249
What happened to them?
95
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,324
What happens
to impoverished societies?
96
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:53,966
The tombs were plundered,
priceless treasures stolen.
97
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:56,242
A few were preserved in museums,
98
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,882
but even those were eventually sold
in order to pay for our war efforts.
99
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:04,768
That war cost you
hundreds of thousands of lives.
100
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:08,243
It depleted your food supplies,
101
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:11,290
left your population
weakened and miserable.
102
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:13,569
And yet you risk another war.
103
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:17,964
Let's not waste time arguing
about issues we cannot resolve.
104
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,842
Would you care to tour
the Hebitian burial vaults?
105
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:27,005
What I would like
is to be returned to my ship.
106
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:32,927
My dear captain, you are a criminal.
107
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:36,523
You've been apprehended
invading one of our secret facilities.
108
00:08:36,680 --> 00:08:41,846
The least that will happen is for you
to stand trial and be punished.
109
00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:46,210
But I'm offering you the opportunity
for that experience to be
110
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:49,287
civilized.
111
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:53,610
- What is the price of that opportunity?
- Cooperation.
112
00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:58,562
We need to know the Federation's
defense strategy for Minos Korva.
113
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:01,445
You've injected me with drugs.
114
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:02,687
Surely you must realize
115
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:06,287
that I've already answered truthfully
every question you've put to me.
116
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:08,090
Captain,
117
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:12,281
we have gone to great lengths
to lure you here,
118
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,046
because we know
that in the event of an invasion,
119
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:17,607
the Enterprise
will be the command ship
120
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:22,004
for the sector encompassing
Minos Korva.
121
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:25,602
Then it seems you have
more knowledge of the situation than I.
122
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,284
Wasted energy, captain.
123
00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:46,122
You might come to wish you hadn't
expended it in such a futile effort.
124
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:48,000
Torture is expressly forbidden
125
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:49,969
under the terms
of the Seldonis IV Convention
126
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,122
governing the treatment
of prisoners of war.
127
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:08,005
Are you in good health?
128
00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:11,966
Do you have any physical ailments
I should know about?
129
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,202
Beautiful, isn't it?
130
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:22,201
The stone is jevonite.
131
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:26,202
And now you know
why it is so highly prized.
132
00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:32,440
From this point on,
you will enjoy no privilege of rank,
133
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:35,371
no privileges of person.
134
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:37,569
From now on,
135
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:42,962
I will refer to you only as "human."
136
00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:45,288
You have no other identity.
137
00:11:17,560 --> 00:11:19,608
RIKER:
First officer's log, supplemental.
138
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:22,240
I have returned from the rendezvous
point in the Lyshan system
139
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:24,402
with Dr. Crusher
and Lieutenant Worf.
140
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,206
Captain Picard's fate
is still unknown.
141
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:29,283
There was no chance
to go back for the captain.
142
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:33,286
We barely made it back
to the Ferengi cargo ship ourselves.
143
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:35,488
You were smart not to try.
144
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:37,688
I don't feel so smart.
145
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:39,565
Get some rest, doctor.
146
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:41,285
Will.
147
00:11:49,560 --> 00:11:53,167
I want Geordi to analyze the readings
from Beverly's tricorder.
148
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:57,644
Tell him to scrutinize every detail
of those caverns on Celtris Ill.
149
00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:01,441
Aye, sir. Request permission
to begin planning a rescue operation.
150
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,287
I know you were close to him, Will,
151
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:07,568
but we don't even know
if he's still alive.
152
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:11,770
Under the circumstances,
a rescue mission would be foolhardy.
153
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:15,004
Shouldn't we assume that he is alive
until it's been proved otherwise?
154
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:18,482
- We cannot just abandon him.
- He's gone.
155
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:21,962
I'm sorry, Will, but you're gonna
have to accept that.
156
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:32,521
I want those tricorder readings
analyzed by 1400 hours.
157
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:37,969
Yes, sir.
158
00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:51,489
Good morning. I trust you slept well.
159
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:32,567
Thirsty?
160
00:13:34,560 --> 00:13:36,722
I would imagine so.
161
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:46,729
Well, it's time to move on.
162
00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:49,089
I've told you all that I know.
163
00:13:49,560 --> 00:13:51,528
Yes, I'm sure you have.
164
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:57,250
How many lights do you see there?
165
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:05,521
- I see four lights.
- No. There are five.
166
00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:10,206
- You're quite sure?
- There are four lights.
167
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,643
Perhaps you're aware
of the incision in your chest.
168
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:16,288
While you were under
the influence of our drugs,
169
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,284
you were implanted
with a small device.
170
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:22,570
It's a remarkable invention.
171
00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:31,726
By entering commands
in this PADD:
172
00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:35,123
I can produce pain
in any part of your body.
173
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:38,568
Various levels of severity.
Forgive me.

Why?

in the eave of a burnt-out building,

521
00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:05,086
Your presence here is another
deliberate provocation to—
522
00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:07,169
I'm not going to argue with you,
Gul Lemec.
523
00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:10,563
Every one of your ships has a mine
on its belly, my finger's on the button,
524
00:37:10,720 --> 00:37:12,882
and you're in a very bad position.
525
00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:14,809
You can't intimidate us.
526
00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:19,644
- Mr. Worf, set off alpha-42.
- Aye, sir.
527
00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:21,171
[RUMBLING]
528
00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:22,651
JELLICO:
That was just a baby.
529
00:37:23,160 --> 00:37:25,003
The big boys are sitting on your hull,
530
00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:29,006
- just waiting for me to say the word.
- What are your terms?
531
00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:31,845
Your ships will leave the nebula
one by one.
532
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:35,083
Each ship will eject
its primary phaser coil
533
00:37:35,240 --> 00:37:37,925
before setting course
for the nearest Cardassian base.
534
00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:39,531
But that will leave us defenseless.
535
00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:44,682
- Mr. Worf, prepare to detonate—
- I will agree to your terms.
536
00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:46,530
Excellent.
537
00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:50,522
Oh, and one more thing.
538
00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:54,760
I understand you're holding a Starfleet
officer named Jean-Luc Picard.
539
00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:59,289
I expect him returned immediately.
540
00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:35,484
That won't help. I have many more.
541
00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:39,244
Still,
542
00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:41,724
it felt good.
543
00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:45,049
Enjoy your good feelings
while you can.
544
00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:47,601
There may not
be many more of them.
545
00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:50,921
I've just received word.
546
00:38:51,240 --> 00:38:53,242
There's been a battle.
547
00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:56,808
The Enterprise is burning in space.
548
00:38:56,960 --> 00:39:00,282
The invasion of Minos Korva
has been successful.
549
00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:01,891
Don't believe you.
550
00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:05,442
There's no need for any further
information from you.
551
00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:09,082
Our troops were successful
in spite of your refusal to help me.
552
00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:11,282
You might've saved yourself
a great deal of torment
553
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:12,851
by yielding at the beginning.
554
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:16,163
I want to see
555
00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:18,926
a neutral representative.
556
00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:21,801
There is no such person.
557
00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:26,160
The word will be that you perished
with your crew.
558
00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:29,722
No one will ever know
that you are here with us,
559
00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:35,011
as you will be for a long, long time.
560
00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:44,483
You do, however, have a choice.
561
00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:48,730
You can live out your life
in misery, held here,
562
00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:51,571
subject to my whims,
563
00:39:51,720 --> 00:39:55,611
or you can live in comfort
with good food and warm clothing,
564
00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:57,524
women, as you desire them.
565
00:39:57,720 --> 00:40:00,530
Allowed to pursue your studies
of philosophy and history.
566
00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:04,765
I would enjoy debating with you.
You have a keen mind.
567
00:40:05,720 --> 00:40:06,960
It's up to you.
568
00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:11,887
A life of ease and reflection
and intellectual challenge
569
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:15,202
or this.
570
00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:21,402
What must I do?
571
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:24,122
Nothing, really.
572
00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:30,006
Tell me how many lights you see.
573
00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:37,570
How many?
574
00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:46,727
How many lights?
575
00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:48,046
[DOOR OPENS]
576
00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:49,690
This is your last chance.
577
00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:54,442
The guards are coming.
Don't be a stubborn fool. How many?
578
00:40:55,720 --> 00:40:58,041
You told me
he would be ready to go.
579
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:01,725
We had some unfinished business.
580
00:41:02,880 --> 00:41:04,689
Get him cleaned up.
581
00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:08,128
A ship is waiting
to take him back to the Enterprise.
582
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:11,411
Captain Picard,
583
00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:17,281
if you'll go with the guards,
they'll take care of you.
584
00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:34,249
There are four lights!
585
00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:49,088
[DOOR OPENS THEN CLOSES]
586
00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:00,762
Captain on the Bridge.
587
00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:08,442
- Welcome home, Jean-Luc.
- Thank you.
588
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:12,207
Just the way you left it,
maybe a little better.
589
00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:16,843
Computer, transfer all command codes
to Captain Jean-Luc Picard.
590
00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:20,368

Jellico-alpha-3-1.
591
00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:21,646
COMPUTER:
Transfer complete.

USS Enterprise now under command
of Captain Jean-Luc Picard.
593
00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:29,604
- I relieve you, sir.
- I stand relieved.
594
00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:36,050
It's been an honor serving with you.
595
00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:41,162
- You have the Bridge, Number One.
- Aye, sir.
596
00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:57,044
I, uh...
597
00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:00,922
I don't know where to begin.
598
00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:02,927
[SIGHS]
599
00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:04,650
It was, uh...
600
00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:13,167
I read your report.
601
00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:20,490
What I didn't put in the report
was that,
602
00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:24,042
at the end, he gave me a choice
603
00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:30,003
between a life of comfort
or more torture.
604
00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:33,289
All I had to do was to say
605
00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:38,361
that I could see five lights,
when in fact there were only four.
606
00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:42,170
- You didn't say it?
- No.
607
00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:44,085
No.
608
00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:48,725
But I was going to.
I would've told him anything.
609
00:43:49,720 --> 00:43:51,848
Anything at all.
610
00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:55,567
But more than that,
611
00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:01,731
I believed that I could see
612
00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:04,642
five lights.
