(Music) [Enterprise Corridor]
We disabled main power on both reptilian ships. The other vessels aren't pursing us.
What about our sensors? Back online. You were right, sir. If I hadn't
been watching that Andorian officer it might have taken weeks to find where she'd sabotaged
the array. Their ship?
It's approaching the anomaly field. They've reduced speed. We'll intercept them
in fourteen minutes. [Shran's Ready room]
We've begun examining the weapon. Excellent work. I'll see that you receive
a commendation. With respect, General, I'd prefer you didn't.
Transmit your analysis as soon as possible. Commander Shran.
What is it? Enterprise is approaching.
[IW Kumari Bridge] Where are they?
Eighty thousand kilometres. They're hailing us.
Captain Archer. Glad to see you made it back safely. How did you find us?
You don't think I'd let your people work on my ship without appropriate supervision. Give
us the weapon. I respect your perseverance, but you don't
actually think you'll be able to take it from us?
No, I think you're going to give it to us. Willingly.
(amused) I should have warned you. Don't drink too much of that Andorian ale in one sitting.
You tossed me overboard before I had a chance to thank you for letting us access your sensor
telemetry. When the Xindi tested the weapon we were able to intercept their activation
codes. Give it to us, or we'll detonate it in your cargo bay.
You'll lose your prize. I'd rather do that than let you take it back
to Andoria. Why? We're not your enemy.
I can't take the chance that you'd use it against the Vulcans.
What have the Vulcans done to deserve your loyalty?
You said you came to help us, Shran. You can still make good on your offer.
I'm sorry, pinkskin. You're not giving me any choice.
I don't believe you. Take us into the anomaly field.
T'Pol. (she works at her station, and Archer smirks at Shran)
Shran to cargo hold three. What's your status? The firing matrix has activated. I believe
the device is arming itself. Shut it down.
We're trying, Commander. I'd get rid of it while you still can.
Report! [Enterprise Bridge]
(Music) They have less than thirty seconds.
Shran. [IW Kumari Bridge]
Twenty seconds. Clear the hold. Prepare to open the bay doors.
[Bridge] Six seconds.
Let's get moving. Already on it, sir.
(The big bang catches the Kumari in its shockwave.) No damage sir.
The Andorians? They were much closer than we were. Their
hull's intact but there's significant damage to their engines and power systems.
Open a channel to Shran. Ask him if he requires our assistance.
Captain's Starlog, supplemental. Commander Shran graciously declined our offer of help.
The last we saw of them, they were limping away on auxiliary power.
[Command centre]
You have something? Just before we went to warp we received a
transmission from the Andorian ship. It wasn't on one of their normal comm. frequencies.
It was encrypted to look like subspace interference. Let's see it.
Apparently they had time to take some detailed scans while it was aboard their ship.
Judging by the clandestine nature of the transmission, I'd guess that whoever sent this didn't want
to be discovered. Get it to Starfleet Command right away.
(Hoshi leaves.) (Music)
Why don't you and Trip join me for dinner tonight. I have some Andorian ale you might
like to try.
