okay Data we're going to monitor every subsystem in your positronic net
if i see any neural pathways overload beyond 65 percent
i'm shutting down the experiment agreed
already
initiating energy transfer
get ready Data
power levels are rising
should be any second now
bang on metal
(music)
the bird did not appear in my original experience
this vision is different of course it's different
it's never the same always changing unpredictable
it doesn't make sense
what is happening father i don't know Data
what is happening we are on the deck of the enterprise
my cat is present
my potted plant
and my paintings are beginning still a little grounded in the mundane
but
showing promise i do not understand
you're not supposed to
no man should know where his dreams come from spoils the mystery
the fun
i'm proud of you son i wasn't sure you'd ever develop the
cognitive abilities to make it this far
but if you're here if you can see me
you've crossed over the threshold from being a collection of
circuits and sub-processors and have started a wonderful journey
