Close to retirement?
- I'm not planning on it.
Let me tell you
something...don't.
Don't let them promote you.
Don't let them transfer you.
Don't let them do anything
that takes you off the bridge,
because while you're there,
you can make a difference.
Come back with me.
Help me stop Soran.
Make a difference again.
Who am I to argue with
the captain of the Enterprise?
What's the name of that planet?
Veridian III?
Yes.
The odds are against us
and the situation is grim.
You could say that.
You know, if Spock were here,
he'd say that I was an irrational,
illogical human being for taking on
a mission like that.
Sounds like fun.
Have re-routed auxiliary power
to lateral thrusters.
- Attempting to level our descent.
- All hands, brace for impact!
Just who the hell are you?
He's James T. Kirk.
Don't you read history?
I've got to get to the launcher.
- The ribbon will be here soon.
- I'll take care of Soran.
Actually, I am familiar
with history, Captain,
and if I'm not too much
mistaken, you're dead.
I thought you were
heading for the launcher.
I changed my mind.
Captain's prerogative.
BUZZ
PICARD: We need that control pad.
Captain, look!
Where's Soran?
Whoa!
RUMBLING
We're running out of time. Look.
The control pad...
it's still there.
I'll get it.
You go for the launcher.
You'll never make that alone.
We have to work together.
We are working together.
Trust me. Go.
- Good luck, Captain.
- Call me Jim.
Whoa!
BUZZ
Aha!
CRASH
BEEPING
Picard!
ECHOES
Get away from that launcher.
Now!
RUMBLING
BEEPING
BEEPING FASTER
Did we do it?
Did we make a difference?
Oh, yes. We made a difference. Thank
you.
The least I could do...
for the captain of the Enterprise.
It was...
fun.
Oh, my.
PICARD: Captain's log,
stardate 48650.1.
Three Starfleet vessels
have arrived
are beaming up the survivors.
Our casualties were light,
but unfortunately, the Enterprise
herself cannot be salvaged.
It has been extremely difficult,
Counsellor.
Then, why did you decide
not to remove the emotion chip?
At first, I was unprepared
for the unpredictable
nature of emotions.
However, having experienced
261 distinct emotional states,
I believe I can control
my feelings.
They will no longer control me.
Well, I hope
you're successful, Data.
BEEPING
Data, over here,
I found something...
one life sign, very faint.
Spot!
MEOW
I am very happy to see you, Spot.
Another family reunited.
CRYING
- Data, are you all right?
- I am uncertain, Counsellor.
I am happy to see Spot,
yet I am crying.
Perhaps the chip is malfunctioning.
I think it's working perfectly.
LAUGHS
Hello, Spot.
Is this it?
Yes. Yes, that's it, Number One.
Thank you.
I'm going to miss this ship.
She went before her time.
Someone once told me
that time was a predator
that stalked us
all our lives,
but I rather believe
that time is a companion
who goes with us on the journey
and reminds us to cherish
every moment
because they'll never come again.
What we leave behind is not as
important as how we've lived.
After all, Number One,
we're only mortal.
Speak for yourself, sir.
I plan to live forever.
I always thought I'd get a shot
at this chair one day.
Perhaps you still will.
Somehow, I doubt that this
will be the last ship
to carry the name Enterprise.
Picard to Farragut...
two to beam up.
DivX subtitles - Luke_SCaptain's log, stardate 45944. 1.
Following a magnetic-wave survey
of the Parvenium system,
we have detected an object which
we cannot immediately identify.
Magnify it.
- Mr Data?
- It appears to be a probe.
But there is no record
of this design.
Is it scanning us?
No, but it is in a relative position
and is holding course with us.
It is made of paricium and talgonite,
a ceramic alloy.
Not a sophisticated technology.
Sir, I detect a low-level nucleonic
beam coming from the probe.
Shields up. Stand by phasers.
The beam is scanning
the shield's
