did not fire.
You cannot prove anything.
Yes, I can. At my trial my personal log
was used against me.
How long did you wait outside
my quarters before I noticed you?
You knew?
I tried to tell you,
but you would not listen.
Neither of us was hearing very well
that night.
There were things I tried to tell you,
about having faith.
You have betrayed the Federation.
All of you.
- And what have you've been doing?
- Saving Starfleet.
Klingons cannot be trusted. Sir...
You said so yourself.
They killed your son.
Did you not wish Gorkon dead?
"Let them die", you said.
Did I misinterpret you?
And you were right.
They conspired with us to assassinate
their own Chancellor.
How trustworthy can they be?
Klingons and Federation members
conspiring together.
- Who is "us"?
- All who stands to lose from peace.
Names, Lieutenant.
My comrades will make certain
all your transmissions are jammed.
- Names, Lieutenant!
- I do not remember.
A lie?
A choice.
Spock.
Admiral Cartwright.
From Starfleet?
Who else?
General... Chang.
- Who else?
- Romulan Ambassador and others.
Where is the peace conference?
Where is the peace conference?
She does not know.
Then we're dead.
I have been dead before.
Contact Excelsior.
- She'll have the co-ordinates.
- I've already got it, sir.
- Standing by, Captain Kirk.
- Sulu.
You realize that by even talking to us,
you're violating regulations.
I'm sorry, Captain.
Yourmessage is breaking up.
Bless you, Sulu.
Where is the peace conference?
They'll attempt another assassination.
It's at Camp Khitomer,
near the Romulan border.
I'm sending the co-ordinates on
a coded frequency.
We'll need more than that.
There's a Bird of Prey on the look-out
for us that can fire when cloaked.
Surely not.
How many of those things are there?
Come on, Lieutenant.
- Just the prototype.
- Do you hear that?
I'm getting under way now.
We're in Alpha Quadrant.
The chances of our reaching
the conference in time are slim.
- When does this conference start?
- According to my information - today.
- Thank you, Captain Sulu.
- Don't mention it, Captain Kirk.
Spock?
I prefer it dark.
- Dining on ashes?
- You were right.
It was arrogant presumption on my part
that got us into this situation.
You and the Doctor
might have been killed.
The night is young.
You said it yourself, it was logical.
Peace is worth a few personal risks.
You're a great one for logic.
I'm a great one for rushing in
where angels fear to tread.
We're both extremists. Reality is
probably somewhere in between.
I couldn't get past the death of my son.
I was prejudiced by her
accomplishments as a Vulcan.
Gorkon had to die before I understood
how prejudiced I was.
Is it possible...
...that we two, you and I,
have grown so old and inflexible -
- that we have outlived our usefulness?
Would that constitute a joke?
- It wasn't your fault.
- I was responsible.
- For no actions but your own.
- That's not what you said at your trial.
That was as captain of the ship.
Human beings...
We both know that I am not human.
Do you want to know something?
Everybody's human.
I find that remark... insulting.
Come, I need you.
Madam Chancellor,
members of the diplomatic corps...
...honoured guests.
The United Federation of Planets
welcomes you to Camp Khitomer.
She's out here somewhere.
- But if she's cloaked...
- Then all we have is a radiation surge.
By the time we're close enough
to record it, we're ashes.
2.06...
2.03...
- Close enough to beam down?
- Not yet. In two minutes. 1 .58.
Go to impulse power for Khitomer.
Let us redefine progress to mean that
just because we can do a thing -
- it does not necessarily follow
that we must do that thing.
- Uhura?
- Nothing, Captain.
If she's here,
she's rigged for silent running.
Coming up on transporter range
in 57 seconds.
Transporter room.
Stand by to beam down.
53...
48 seconds.
44...
I can see you, Kirk.
Chang.
Can
