to discuss
than trade disputes.
There's no reason our people
can't become allies.
And now, the conclusion.
This mission was supposed to cause dissension in the region.
It's had the opposite effect.
Senator, you... The Andorians and Tellarites
have formed an alliance.
They're working together for the first time in history.
It won't last.
A group of senators doesn't share your optimism.
They're presenting a motion to cancel this mission.
That would be a mistake.
The mistake was mine
when I supported this endeavor.
Do you realize
how you've weakened my position?
When this is over,
you'll be First Consul.
After a failure of this magnitude...
I could be dead.
This isn't a failure.
It's a setback.
We have to deal with the humans.
They are the ones that brought
the Andorians and Tellarites together.
The second Drone ship
is armed and ready for battle.
With two ships,
I can deliver a devastating blow.
We will hunt down Enterprise
and destroy it.
It's been a long road
Getting from there to here
It's been a long time
But my time is finally near
And I will see my dream
come alive at last
I will touch the sky
And they're not gonna
hold me down no more
No, they're not
gonna change my mind
'Cause I've got faith
of the heart
I'm going where my heart
will take me
I've got faith to believe
I can do anything
I've got strength
of the soul
No one's gonna bend
or break me
I can reach any star
I've got faith
I've got, I've got
I've got faith
Faith of the heart.
Captain's Starlog, supplemental.
A transport ship is returning
the Tellarite Ambassador to his homeworld,
but Shran has offered to stay
and help us track down the marauder.
The Drone is being operated
by telepresence.
It's a process which allows a vessel
to be controlled from a remote location.
We experimented with that years ago.
Nothing came of it.
A pilot can operate the Drone
from a great distance--
over many light-years.
So, there really was
no one on that ship.
And the people running it are back on their homeworld,
safe and sound. Essentially.
Doesn't seem fair.
Is there any way to interrupt this telepresence?
I'm still reviewing the data Commander Tucker brought back,
but I believe we can construct our own telepresence unit.
And use it to hijack their ship?
Doubtful.
The most we can hope for is to interfere with their navigation.
Get started.
There's one problem.
The data from the marauder also
contained a brain wave pattern.
I believe it belongs to the pilot. I've analyzed it.
The individual is highly telepathic.
Apparently, telepathy
is necessary to operate the device.
Vulcans have telepathic powers.
Not to this extent.
Can you identify the species?
There's no exact match in my database.
However, the nearest genome...
is Andorian.
The humans did considerable damage to the bridge.
We'll have to replace the entire receiver array.
Assign every spare man to the repair crew.
The ship isn't what concerns me.
It's the pilot. What about him?
Operating the vessel is extremely taxing.
He'll have at least three days to rest.
That won't be enough.
He's suffering
from severe mental fatigue.
Piloting one ship would be
difficult enough, but two...
Then you'll have to increase the stimulants.
The dosage is already at a dangerous level.
He could be permanently damaged.
He could die.
If I didn't know you better, I would say you're more concerned
with this creature's well-being than you are with this mission.
Without the pilot, there would be no mission.
Just keep him alive long enough
to destroy the Earth ship.
After that, his health is of little consequence.
[door chimes]
Come in.
I just received a transmission.
Our scientists identified the brain wave pattern.
And?
It's from my world,
but it's not from any Andorian you'd know.
It's Aenar.
