lf he tries to get away

Excelsior closing

Full power available.

Scotty, as good as your word.
The more they overtake the plumbing,
the easier to stop up the drain.
Here, Doctor, souvenirs
from one surgeon to another.
l took them out of
her main Transwarp computer drive.
- Nice of you to tell me in advance.
- You missed the staff meeting.
Your work today
has been outstanding.
l will recommend you all
for promotion...
..in whatever fleet we end up
serving. Best speed to Genesis.
The Genesis Wave. His cells
could have been regenerated.
Captain, this is Saavik.
Come in, please.
- Yes, Saavik, go ahead.
- We have found the life sign.
lt is a Vulcan child, perhaps eight
to ten Earth years of age.
- A child?! How did he get there?
- lt is Dr Marcus' opinion that...
..that the Genesis effect has in some
way regenerated...Captain Spock.
Saavik, that's...extraordinary.
What would you like to do next?
Request permission
to beam aboard immediately.
Does Dr Marcus think there's any
chance of radioactive contamination?
- No.
- None that he can detect, sir.
l'm going to advise Starfleet
and get instructions.
- l'm sure Starfleet would approve.
- But let's do it by the book.
Standby on this channel. Go.
Starfleet Command, this is
USS Grissom on coded channel 98.8.
Come in, please.
Sir, something is jamming
our transmission. An energy surge.
Locate!
Sir, it's from astern!
Oh, my God.
- Captain, what is happening?
- We're under attack!
Stand by for evasive.
Fire.
- Sir, may l suggest...
- Say the wrong thing, Torg!
There are life signs on the planet.
Perhaps the very scientists you seek.
- Saavik calling Grissom...
- Very good.
Grissom, this is Saavik on emergency
frequency. Come in, please.
What happened to them?
lt would seem the Grissom was
destroyed by an enemy attack.
We must go.
They will soon come after us.
Estimating Genesis,
2.9 hours present speed.
- Can we hold speed, Scotty?
- Aye, she's got her second wind now.
- Scan for vessels in pursuit.
- Scanning. lndications negative.
Did l get it right?
Great, Bones, just great.
lt's time for total truth between us.
This planet is not what you intended
or hoped for, is it?
Not exactly.
Why?
l used proto-matter
in the Genesis matrix.
An unstable substance which
every ethical scientist in the galaxy
has denounced
as dangerously unpredictable.
lt was the only way
to solve certain problems.
So, like your father,
you changed the rules.
lf l hadn't, it might have been
years, or never!
How many have paid the price
for your impatience?
How many have died?
How much damage have you done?
And what is yet to come?
