starfleet service number c953o4699427 a third-year student at starfleet academy with a specialty in tactical operations. yes, sir. cadet, i have been reviewing a record of red squad activities on the night of the 23rd-- the night of the poweweoutage. are you contradicting g , cadet? no, sir. who told you there wasn't to be a record? the briefing officer, sir. i want that officer's name. she didn't give us her name but she said there'd be no record of our actions and our role would go unrecognized for now. maybe if you'd done your job better, it would have. but you fouled it up, didn't you? you cadets did some sloppy work-- some damn sloppy work. with all due respect, sir... that's not true, sir. easier than simumutions. if you think by lying to me you'll save your own hide, you'd better forget it. mistakes were made, and i will find out who's responsible. i was at planetary operations the whole time. if anything had gone wrong, i would have known about it. is that so? all right, cadet, let's go over this step by stetp from the time of your mission deployment on the night of the 23rd. yes, si

you know more about the dominion than anyone in starfleet. and so, effective immediately i'm making you acting head this is one beautiful fish. of simply looking at it. well, go on, take a bite. it won't bite you back. now, i don't want to see anybody studying the dessert menu. if you order anything but the bread pudding souffle you'll be making a mistake you will regret the rest of your lives. you should listen to him. the man knows his bread puddining. benjamin! dad. jako. when are y y going to stop growing? if you keep this up, you'll be bumping your head on that alligator before too long. you used to tell me that alligator was in stasis and you let it out at night to guard the restaurant. oh, i had to stop doing that. it got to be too much trouble wrestling it back up to the ceiling every morning. come on, i'll get nathan to bring you both something to eat, and we can catch up. -shifting fellow you were coming with? with things the way they are, odo thought it would be better if he stayed at starfleet headquarters. i don't blame him. i ha

i didn't take an oath to starfleet. we have rights, ben, including the right to be as stubborn or thickheaded as we want. damn it, dad! can't you cooperate just one time? you don't take your medication. you don't go to the doctor. you won't let judiththelp you in the restaurant. just one time, please do what you're asked. i wish i could but what you're asking me to do is wrong. you can't go around making people prove they are who they say they are. that's no way to live and i'm not going to go along with it. now, if you want to make yourself useful start some water boiling for ththshrimp. come on, dad. don't be this way. if i have to, i will get a warrant... and what? hold me down and force me to give you my blood? because that's the only way you'll get... damn it! jake? i've got a dermal regenerator under the... benjamininafayette sisko... what the hell has gotten into your head? you actually thought i was one of them, didn't you? i don't know. i wasn't sure. this business has got you so twisted around you can't think

i've just spoken with starfleet command. except w wre fully clothed, which is probably for the best. captain's log, supplemental. enterprise s arrived at vulcan as ordered. three days after the bombing of earth's embassy, and i've lost my friend, admiral forrest. vulcan authorities still have no lead on who's responsible. i'm sorry y keep you from your family, but i'm going to need you on the investigation full-time. that's where i prefer to be. your mother and husband will understand? my mother hasn't responded to my communiques. it's not unusual for her to become lost in her work. as for my... husband, captain jonathan archer, i regret we meet under such trarac circumstances. i'd like to introduce administrator v'las. administrator... i wasn't told to expect the head of the high command. captain archer, all of vulcan grieves with you today. 12 vulcans died in the blast, ambassador. t end, this is stel, chief investigatororof our secu. captain, we now have suspects. andorianan why would they attack our embassy? to create co

she's a member of starfleet and starfleet has allied with the high command. they'll both remain where they are until i'm satisfied they can be trusted. search patrols are flying day and night. they're the least of our worries now. if syrran is dead... then everything we've worked for is lost. i can't believe they threw you out. just because you helped us? i knew the risks. there's gotta to be some way you can fight this. i could protest, but it wouldn't accomplish anything. v'las isn't one to change his mind. who the hell put him in charge anyway? v'las has demonstrated a singular talent for governing. what are you going to do now? if you're referring to my career, i haven't given it much thought. there's something more important we need to discuss. have you made contact with t'pol or your captain? we can't reach them and they can't reach us. v'las is determined to wipe out the syrrannites. he's particularly intent on destroying campment in the forge. where the captain and t'pol are headed. they may be in grave danger. i can't understand how you could join th

have you told starfleet you're planning to warn the andorians? no. have you any idea what the admiral will do when he finds out? i'll save you a seat at my court-martial. is there anything else? the vulcans have legitimate reasons for launching this strike. if we alert the andorians, we will be betraying our closest ally.

every student at the acade they're an elite team of starfleet cadets. my wants to be a part of it. oh. well, that explains it. explains what? well, according to this transporter log a group called red squad was beamed back to starfleet academy 26 minutes after the state of emergency was declared.

we were all decorated by starfleet command but in retrospect... the thing i'm most proud of was the night we saved that man's life. explain. a single act of compassion can put you in touch with your own humanity. you are trying to justify your present decision. no. i'm trying to help you see this as an opportunity to grow. i know you don't want to do it, seven but i'm telling you as your captain your decision is tactically unsound. we will be surrounded by hirogen ships in approximately two hours. if we do not surrender the creature they will destroy us. a lesson in compassion will do me little good if i am dead. it is wrong to sacrifice another being to save our own lives. i have observed that you have been willing to sacrifice your own life to save the lives of your crew. yes, but that's different. that was my choice. this creature it invaded our ship put our lives at risk to save its own. in my view it has already forfeited its freedom. i'm giving you an order. report to deflector control and begin working on creating a singularity. i will not
