DATA: Not from this distance, sir. 461 00:31:05,030 --> 00:31:08,950 I am also detecting an ion trail intersecting the phenomenon. 462 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:13,370 I believe it was left by a Starfleet type-6 shuttlecraft. 463 00:31:13,580 --> 00:31:15,120 So I was here. 464 00:31:17,130 --> 00:31:19,170 I have an explanation, sir. 465 00:31:19,790 --> 00:31:22,250 I believe the quantum fissure we discovered 466 00:31:22,460 --> 00:31:25,920 is a fixed point across the space-time continuum, 467 00:31:26,130 --> 00:31:29,640 a keyhole which intersects many other quantum realities. 468 00:31:29,850 --> 00:31:31,720 What do you mean, "quantum realities"? 469 00:31:31,930 --> 00:31:32,970 For any event, 470 00:31:33,180 --> 00:31:35,430 there is an infinite number of possible outcomes. 471 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:38,350 Our choices determine which outcomes will follow. 472 00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:41,230 But there is a theory in quantum physics 473 00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:44,940 that all possibilities that can happen do happen 474 00:31:45,150 --> 00:31:47,280 in alternate quantum realities. 475 00:31:47,490 --> 00:31:51,780 And somehow I have been shifting from one reality to another. 476 00:31:51,990 --> 00:31:54,700 - That is correct. - How did this happen? 477 00:31:57,210 --> 00:31:59,120 When Worf's shuttlecraft came into contact 478 00:31:59,330 --> 00:32:00,790 with the quantum fissure, 479 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:03,170 I believe its warp engines caused a small break 480 00:32:03,380 --> 00:32:05,920 in the barriers between quantum realities. 481 00:32:06,130 --> 00:32:08,800 Worf was thrown into a state of quantum flux. 482 00:32:09,010 --> 00:32:11,970 He immediately shifted into other realities. 483 00:32:12,180 --> 00:32:15,140 And Geordi's VISOR somehow triggered that effect. 484 00:32:15,350 --> 00:32:19,140 Exactly. The VISOR uses a subspace field pulse. 485 00:32:19,350 --> 00:32:21,650 I believe that whenever Geordi came near Worf, 486 00:32:21,860 --> 00:32:24,610 the field pulse intensified the quantum flux 487 00:32:24,820 --> 00:32:27,320 and pushed Worf into another reality. 488 00:32:27,530 --> 00:32:29,660 Well, how can we find my original quantum state 489 00:32:29,860 --> 00:32:30,910 and return me to it? 490 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:35,740 We could scan the quantum fissure using a subspace differential pulse. 491 00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:37,620 Maybe we could find the quantum state 492 00:32:37,830 --> 00:32:41,170 that shares Worf's signature and find a way to get him back. 493 00:32:41,380 --> 00:32:43,630 An excellent idea, lieutenant. 494 00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:02,310 Worf, 495 00:33:03,690 --> 00:33:06,070 from what I understand, 496 00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:10,280 there's a good chance my Worf won't return. 497 00:33:11,490 --> 00:33:14,740 I guess it's just hard for me to accept 498 00:33:14,950 --> 00:33:20,370 that there's a reality out there where you never loved me. 499 00:33:23,130 --> 00:33:28,510 Deanna, I have always considered you a close friend. 500 00:33:30,010 --> 00:33:35,390 And although I have never seriously considered a romantic relationship, 501 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:39,470 I would not be opposed to the possibility. 502 00:33:40,390 --> 00:33:42,060 What about our children? 503 00:33:44,150 --> 00:33:46,650 - Children? - You didn't know? 504 00:33:48,900 --> 00:33:51,900 When the last shift occurred in Sickbay, 505 00:33:52,110 --> 00:33:53,990 we did not have any children. 506 00:33:59,790 --> 00:34:03,580 We have a little girl, Shannara.
