even tested at warp power. And an untried captain. Two and a half years as Chief of Starfleet Operations may have made me stale, but I wouldn't consider myself untried. - They gave her back to me, Scotty. - Gave her back? I doubt it was that easy with Nogura. You're right. Well, any man who could manage such a feat, I would not dare disappoint. She'll launch on time, sir, and she'll be ready. - Thank you, Mr Scott. - Aye, sir. Cargo bay to launch crew. Travel pod is now available at dock six. - Permission to come aboard. - Granted. Welcome aboard, Admiral. Cmdr Scott, you're needed in Engineering. Sir, you'll excuse me. Flight deck, prepare for incoming shuttlecraft. - If you'll follow me... - I think I can find my way, Ensign. Aye, sir. Bridge. I thought you had that circuit patched in an hour ago. We did. We had to disconnect it. I'll get somebody there as soon as I can. Captain! Starfleet just signalled your transfer-of-command orders. - Captain. - I appreciate the welcome. I wish circumstances were less critical. Epsilon IX is monitoring the intruder. Keep a channel open. Where's Capt Decker? He's in Engineering, sir. He... doesn't know. - Mr Chekov. - Aye, sir. Assemble the crew on the recreation deck at 0400 hours. I want to show them what we're facing. He wanted her back. He got her. And Capt Decker? He's been with this ship every minute of her refitting. The possibilities of our returning from this mission in one piece may have just doubled. Check Cleary on number six. Space matrix restoration coils. Dilithium crystals. I knew it. The transporter sensor was not activated. Faulty modules. Cleary, put a new backup sensor into the unit. Admiral Kirk. We're getting a top-brass sendoff. She'll launch on schedule if we have to tow her with our hands. Right? Aye, that we will, sir. - Let's talk. - Sure. - Tell me when the backup's ready. - Aye, sir. Sir, I hope this isn't some kind of pep talk. - I'm too busy. - I'm taking over, Will. You're what? I'm replacing you as Captain of the Enterprise. You'll stay on as Executive Officer. Temporary grade reduction to Commander. You personally are assuming command? Yeah. May I ask why? My experience. Five years out there dealing with unknowns like this. My familiarity with the Enterprise, its crew. Admiral, this is an almost totally new Enterprise. - You don't know her like I do. - That's why you're staying aboard. I'm sorry, Will. No, Admiral, I don't think you're sorry, not one damn bit. I remember when you recommended me for command. You said how much you hoped you'd find a way to get a starship again. Well, sir, it looks like you found a way. Report to the bridge, Commander, immediately. Aye, sir. Transporter room. Come in. Red line on the transporter. - Transporter, do not engage. - It's too late. They're beaming. Do you read me, Starfleet? Override us. Pull them back. Unable to retrieve their pattern, Enterprise. Give it to me. Starfleet, boost your matter gain. We need more signal. More signal. - We're losing their pattern. - No, they're forming. Starfleet, do you have them? Enterprise, what we got back didn't live long, fortunately. Starfleet, Kirk. Please express my condolences to their families. Cmdr Sonak's can be reached through the Vulcan Embassy. There was nothing you could have done, Rand. It wasn't your fault. - Yeoman, turboshaft eight? - Back that way, sir. We must replace Cmdr Sonak. I'd still like a Vulcan if possible. None available, Captain. No one's fully rated on this design. You are, Mr Decker. You'll have to double as Science Officer. That's all we know about it... ...except that it is now 53.4 hours away from Earth. Enterprise is the only Federation starship that stands in its way. Our orders are to intercept, investigate, and take whatever action is necessary. And possible. Bridge to Captain.
