Spock, I thought I was going to die.
Not possible. You were never alone.
Maybe he's not out there, Bones. Maybe he's right here... in the human heart Spock?
I was thinking of Sybok. I've lost a brother.
Yes. I lost a brother once. I was lucky. I got him back.
Mr. Scott apologizes for having to send the shuttlecraft. The transporter beam is nonoperational. Captain, we've received important orders from Starlet Command.
Why didn't you beep my communicator?
ER... You forgot to take it with you.
Captain, Starfleet transmission on line.
Put it on the veiwscreen, would You please?
Captain, we're receiving the hostage information you requested.
Put it on the screen.
Standard orbit, Mr. Sulu.
Captain, we're receiving transmission from Paradise City. They're demanding to know our intentions.
Respond with static. Let them think we're having difficulty. Which wouldn't be far from the truth.
Paradise City, can you boost your power? We're barely receiving transmission.
Transporter room. Status.
Bird of Prey bearing one zero five mark two.
Go, Sulu.
You told me you could have the ship operational in two weeks. I gave you three. What Happened?
I think you gave me too much time, Captain.
Very well, Mr. Scott. Carry on.
Aye, Captain How many times do I have to tell you? The right tool for the right job...
Don't you worry, Captain. We'll beat those Klingon devils even if I have to get out and push.
I hope it won't come to that, Mr. Scott.
Scotty here, Captain. Transporter is still inoperative. Even if we could lock onto the hostages, we couldn't beam them up.
Then we'll have to get them out the old fashioned way.
Captain, we can't trust anyone now.
If we could send a distress signal...
Mr. Scott, get the transporter working. If we contact a rescue ship we'll need it. Which way to the turbo shaft?
Head down that tunnel to the hydro vent and turn right. Then left at the blowscreen. You can't miss it.
Mr. Scott, you're amazing.
She's got partial power, sir. I might be able to take two of you.
Beam up Spock and Dr. McCoy. Now!
Besides, I can't believe you'd kill me for a field of empty holes.
It's all I have.
Your pain runs deep.
What do you know of my pain?
Let us explore it together.
Where did you get this power?
The power was within you.
I feel as if a weight has been lifted from my heart. How can I repay you for this miracle?
Join my quest.
What is it you seek?
What you seek. What all men have sought since time began ultimate knowledge. But to find it we'll need a starship.
A starship? There are no starships on Nimbus III.
Perhaps I have a way to bring one here.
But how?
Have faith, my friend. There are more of us than you know.
Can we have it quiet?
Enterprise, this is Starfleet Operations. Come in.
Bob?
Jim...? Well, we're dressing informally, aren't we?
You caught me on my way to the shower.
I apologize for canceling shore leave, but look, we have a dangerous situation out on Nimbus III.
On "The Planet Of Galactic Peace?"
The same. From what we can make out, a terrorist force has captured the only settlement. And they've taken hostages.
The Klingon, the Romulan, the Federation consuls. Now I know Enterprise is not exactly up to specs...
With all due respect, the Enterprise is a disaster. There must be other ships in the quadrant.
Other ships, yes. But no experienced commanders. Captain, I need Jim Kirk.
Oh, please.
Your orders are to proceed to Nimbus III, assess the situation and avoid a confrontation if possible. Above all, however, get those hostages back safely.
Have the Klingons responded?
No, but you can bet they will.
Understood. Kirk out.
This is the Starship Enterprise.
A Federation starship.
This is Captain Pavel Chekov speaking. You are in violation of Neutral Zone Treaty. I advise you to release your hostages at once or suffer the consequences.
Your threats amuse me, Captain Chekov. What consequences did you have in mind?
You are a master of understatement. They are likely to destroy the planet.
Then it's fortunate that I have you and your starship to protect me. In the meantime, Captain Chekov, I instruct you and your First Officer to beam down to my coordinates.
We will be happy to beam down. But first we must have certain assurances.
What's going on?
I instruct you to surrender. You are under attack by Federation forces.
Do you realize what you've done? It wasn't bloodshed I wanted.
Shuttle en route.
Position, Bird of Prey?
Closing.
Mr. Chekov, I've lost the Bird of Prey. She must have cloaked.
Raise shields.
But the shuttle
DO it. Go to Red Alert.
What's Emergency Landing Plan B?
I don't have a clue.
Admit it. We're lost.
All right, we're lost. But we're making good time.
Um... yes. We've been caught in a blizzard!
And we can't see a thing. Request you direct us to the coordinates.
Sulu, what are you doing?
Plotting our new course.
New course? You have no authority. What's going on here?
Pavel.
Following new course. Warp seven.
Estimating destination in 6.7 hours, present speed.
In firing position. Torpedo armed.
But, Captain, we're firing directly on your position.
Bad news, gentlemen. Shore leave's been cancelled.
Rescued at last.
Return to prearranged coordinates for pickup.
Don't tell them you're lost. You'll never live it down.
