WEBVTT

00:00:36.002 --> 00:00:40.740 align:center
In all my time, there's one
thing I've learned to be true.

00:00:43.810 --> 00:00:46.145 align:center
If you want to serve
the galaxy...

00:00:46.146 --> 00:00:49.182 align:center
make your bed.

00:00:51.651 --> 00:00:53.385 align:center
Here's another.

00:00:53.386 --> 00:00:55.821 align:center
Get to class on time.

00:00:55.822 --> 00:00:57.222 align:center
Doesn't seem like much,

00:00:57.223 --> 00:01:01.727 align:center
just tiny acts of service
to your fellow cadets.

00:01:01.728 --> 00:01:04.296 align:center
A single stitch,

00:01:04.297 --> 00:01:06.331 align:center
then another and another,

00:01:06.332 --> 00:01:10.402 align:center
until you've woven something
greater than you ever imagined.

00:01:10.403 --> 00:01:13.038 align:center
A tapestry.

00:01:13.039 --> 00:01:16.875 align:center
The tapestry that is Starfleet,
that is history.

00:01:16.876 --> 00:01:20.779 align:center
And now, the moment
you've all been waiting for.

00:01:20.780 --> 00:01:24.016 align:center
Mutageocillus arniopolus.

00:01:24.017 --> 00:01:26.852 align:center
Self-replicating mucus.

00:01:26.853 --> 00:01:29.088 align:center
A jar of goo.

00:01:29.089 --> 00:01:30.589 align:center
Stand up.

00:01:30.590 --> 00:01:34.860 align:center
I heard we get Ferengal horned
tapeworms next semester.

00:01:34.861 --> 00:01:36.428 align:center
Please never stand
next to me again.

00:01:36.429 --> 00:01:41.300 align:center
Each of you will care for
a single specimen for five days.

00:01:41.301 --> 00:01:43.235 align:center
Easy, right?

00:01:43.236 --> 00:01:44.403 align:center
Wrong.

00:01:44.404 --> 00:01:47.573 align:center
Mucus is romantic.
It likes to bond.

00:01:47.574 --> 00:01:52.177 align:center
If you get even a tiny amount
on your skin,

00:01:52.178 --> 00:01:53.445 align:center
it will replicate...

00:01:53.446 --> 00:01:55.948 align:center
...until you're covered
head to toe,

00:01:55.949 --> 00:01:58.250 align:center
and you will have to
move in together

00:01:58.251 --> 00:02:00.619 align:center
and spend holidays
with its parents.

00:02:05.091 --> 00:02:09.328 align:center
And we will have to
help you break up

00:02:09.329 --> 00:02:13.132 align:center
by freezing it
with a neutralizing agent.

00:02:13.133 --> 00:02:15.100 align:center
That gets you a C.

00:02:15.101 --> 00:02:17.536 align:center
A C? How do we fail?

00:02:17.537 --> 00:02:19.404 align:center
If it kills you.

00:02:19.405 --> 00:02:21.807 align:center
Welcome to Xenobiology.

00:02:21.808 --> 00:02:24.276 align:center
When the Burn hit,

00:02:24.277 --> 00:02:25.978 align:center
the Federation
had to leave Earth.

00:02:25.979 --> 00:02:27.646 align:center
Starfleet Academy was abandoned.

00:02:27.647 --> 00:02:31.283 align:center
Our tapestry, our history,
irretrievably torn.

00:02:31.284 --> 00:02:33.485 align:center
Say what you will
about this present time,

00:02:33.486 --> 00:02:36.655 align:center
but it has one advantage
over every other,

00:02:36.656 --> 00:02:38.957 align:center
it's ours.

00:02:38.958 --> 00:02:40.993 align:center
Comparative Xenomythology

00:02:40.994 --> 00:02:43.462 align:center
was dropped from the curriculum
100 years ago,

00:02:43.463 --> 00:02:46.665 align:center
when Starfleet's emphasis
shifted from understanding those

00:02:46.666 --> 00:02:48.333 align:center
with whom we share a universe,

00:02:48.334 --> 00:02:50.169 align:center
to defending ourselves
against them.

00:02:50.170 --> 00:02:52.504 align:center
Sir, is there a creation myth

00:02:52.505 --> 00:02:55.274 align:center
about a wise-ass space rat who
put a state-of-the-art starship

00:02:55.275 --> 00:02:57.276 align:center
in danger just 'cause
he needed to call his mommy?

00:02:57.277 --> 00:02:59.244 align:center
Or one about
an overcompensating fish boy

00:02:59.245 --> 00:03:01.213 align:center
who's sad and lonely 'cause
he has a teeny tiny fish di...

00:03:01.214 --> 00:03:04.149 align:center
Cadets, many cultures
expel their males

00:03:04.150 --> 00:03:08.187 align:center
into the wild at your stage
of hormonal development

00:03:08.188 --> 00:03:10.155 align:center
to mature on their own

00:03:10.156 --> 00:03:11.823 align:center
or die.

00:03:11.824 --> 00:03:14.960 align:center
We are not one of them.
Currently.

00:03:14.961 --> 00:03:18.697 align:center
You are the first
officer corps class

00:03:18.698 --> 00:03:22.801 align:center
to return to this campus
in over a hundred years.

00:03:22.802 --> 00:03:26.538 align:center
One we share with our venerable
neighbors at the War College.

00:03:26.539 --> 00:03:29.575 align:center
An institution that's
turned out the officers

00:03:29.576 --> 00:03:32.711 align:center
that kept Starfleet strong
during the Burn.

00:03:32.712 --> 00:03:35.347 align:center
We thank them
for their continued service

00:03:35.348 --> 00:03:38.184 align:center
and look forward
to working together.

00:03:39.152 --> 00:03:42.754 align:center
If you thought combat training
was only for the War College,

00:03:42.755 --> 00:03:45.123 align:center
think again. Sound off!

00:03:45.124 --> 00:03:47.693 align:center
Duty! Honor! Service!

00:03:47.694 --> 00:03:48.827 align:center
Louder!

00:03:48.828 --> 00:03:51.196 align:center
Duty! Honor! Service!

00:03:51.197 --> 00:03:52.864 align:center
Pitiful.

00:03:52.865 --> 00:03:56.368 align:center
Tactical Engagement
is not about self-defense,

00:03:56.369 --> 00:03:58.170 align:center
though you will learn
self-defense.

00:03:58.171 --> 00:03:59.404 align:center
It's not about weapons.

00:03:59.405 --> 00:04:02.441 align:center
No. This class...

00:04:02.442 --> 00:04:03.842 align:center
is about me!

00:04:03.843 --> 00:04:07.212 align:center
My father taught me
that victory is life.

00:04:07.213 --> 00:04:10.182 align:center
My mother, that today
is a good day to die.

00:04:10.183 --> 00:04:13.518 align:center
One day, you'll all
stare death in the face

00:04:13.519 --> 00:04:16.088 align:center
as she stares back. Yes!

00:04:16.089 --> 00:04:17.522 align:center
Death has eyes!

00:04:17.523 --> 00:04:19.458 align:center
And none of my cadets

00:04:19.459 --> 00:04:21.760 align:center
will confront her
like gutless cowards.

00:04:21.761 --> 00:04:23.695 align:center
I will rip out my own stomach

00:04:23.696 --> 00:04:27.733 align:center
and choke on it before even one
of you lets fear win the day.

00:04:27.734 --> 00:04:29.801 align:center
Do you hear me?

00:04:29.802 --> 00:04:34.007 align:center
You will not live in fear!

00:04:36.609 --> 00:04:39.646 align:center
I can always spot the runner.

00:04:44.217 --> 00:04:46.251 align:center
Democracy doesn't live
in a place.

00:04:46.252 --> 00:04:49.488 align:center
It lives in continuous action.

00:04:49.489 --> 00:04:54.427 align:center
So, go out and seek,
explore, innovate.

00:04:55.228 --> 00:04:58.196 align:center
Boldly go where
no one has gone before.

00:04:58.197 --> 00:05:00.766 align:center
It is my great honor

00:05:00.767 --> 00:05:05.604 align:center
to welcome you all back
to Starfleet Academy.

00:07:21.541 --> 00:07:23.875 align:center
Specialist Krebs
to Science Lab 7.

00:07:23.876 --> 00:07:25.377 align:center
I'm telling you, I nailed it.

00:07:25.378 --> 00:07:27.946 align:center
I just wish that
I had your confidence.

00:07:27.947 --> 00:07:30.282 align:center
- It's all in the walk, buddy.
- I guess.

00:07:30.283 --> 00:07:33.585 align:center
But, Caleb, if you stayed
in Torothan prison,

00:07:33.586 --> 00:07:36.855 align:center
they would've chopped your hands
into little stumpy stumps.

00:07:36.856 --> 00:07:39.191 align:center
Yeah, but there's toilet wine,

00:07:39.192 --> 00:07:40.826 align:center
and I wouldn't be forced to read

00:07:40.827 --> 00:07:42.928 align:center
the Military Strategies
of Klingon General...

00:07:42.929 --> 00:07:44.329 align:center
Ajergh K'Tamushti.

00:07:44.330 --> 00:07:46.731 align:center
No offense, Jay-Den,
he's a little dry.

00:07:49.802 --> 00:07:52.103 align:center
We got
our room assignments.

00:07:52.104 --> 00:07:54.206 align:center
- Never had a room.
- We share them.

00:07:54.207 --> 00:07:57.142 align:center
Like, with others?
That's the definition of...

00:07:57.143 --> 00:07:58.276 align:center
Roommates.

00:07:58.277 --> 00:07:59.578 align:center
- ...fascism.
- No.

00:07:59.579 --> 00:08:01.346 align:center
Also, with a roommate,
how does anyone...

00:08:01.347 --> 00:08:03.181 align:center
- Hook up?
- You get me.

00:08:03.182 --> 00:08:04.883 align:center
Try not to antagonize
your new roommate

00:08:04.884 --> 00:08:06.952 align:center
for at least ten minutes.

00:08:06.953 --> 00:08:08.620 align:center
- See you in class.
- Bye.

00:08:08.621 --> 00:08:11.190 align:center
See you in Stellar Cartography.
I'll save you a seat.

00:08:12.625 --> 00:08:16.828 align:center
So, I... never had
the chance to thank you

00:08:16.829 --> 00:08:19.831 align:center
for helping me get rid of
all those killer space pirates.

00:08:19.832 --> 00:08:22.434 align:center
Got to give it
to you. Sort of brave.

00:08:22.435 --> 00:08:24.536 align:center
Right?
Heroically saving everyone.

00:08:24.537 --> 00:08:26.004 align:center
After dropping us
in mortal peril.

00:08:26.005 --> 00:08:28.139 align:center
Wonder if I'll live
till midterms.

00:08:31.444 --> 00:08:33.111 align:center
This is me.

00:08:33.112 --> 00:08:34.946 align:center
Me, too.

00:08:34.947 --> 00:08:37.182 align:center
Wait, are we...

00:08:37.183 --> 00:08:38.550 align:center
Roomies?

00:08:38.551 --> 00:08:39.818 align:center
No.

00:08:39.819 --> 00:08:41.019 align:center
See you.

00:08:41.020 --> 00:08:42.521 align:center
Also, tip:

00:08:42.522 --> 00:08:45.023 align:center
Don't hook up with anyone
for, like, the first six months.

00:08:45.024 --> 00:08:47.894 align:center
That's how you find out
who's a total psycho.

00:08:49.228 --> 00:08:50.929 align:center
Bye-bye.

00:08:50.930 --> 00:08:52.431 align:center
Sage advice.

00:09:00.973 --> 00:09:03.074 align:center
- Oh, hell no!
- Oh, you've got to
be kidding me.

00:09:03.075 --> 00:09:05.677 align:center
- Guards. Guards! This is a no.
- No, absolutely not. No way.

00:09:05.678 --> 00:09:07.178 align:center
- No way.
- No in perpetuity!

00:09:07.179 --> 00:09:08.513 align:center
- No!
- Hate you!

00:09:08.514 --> 00:09:10.682 align:center
The bio-labs are almost there,

00:09:10.683 --> 00:09:12.517 align:center
but whatever supplier
we're using

00:09:12.518 --> 00:09:17.856 align:center
for our samples of xeno-mucosa
has no imagination. None.

00:09:17.857 --> 00:09:21.259 align:center
The arniopolus strain is hearty,
I'll concede,

00:09:21.260 --> 00:09:22.727 align:center
but just so vanilla.

00:09:22.728 --> 00:09:24.563 align:center
It might as well be pudding.

00:09:24.564 --> 00:09:27.065 align:center
- Okay.
- Now, the kemagora strain

00:09:27.066 --> 00:09:29.434 align:center
I requested has vigor, fire.

00:09:29.435 --> 00:09:31.202 align:center
- Wow.
- Those kids can learn a lot

00:09:31.203 --> 00:09:32.737 align:center
- from mucus like that.
- Mm.

00:09:32.738 --> 00:09:34.272 align:center
Do you need to answer those?

00:09:34.273 --> 00:09:36.775 align:center
Oh, uh, the-the Federation
is getting ready

00:09:36.776 --> 00:09:38.877 align:center
to rebuild its new seat
of government.

00:09:38.878 --> 00:09:40.812 align:center
- Oh. Namibia's vying for it.
- Yes.

00:09:40.813 --> 00:09:42.747 align:center
- Singapore.
- What about Paris?

00:09:42.748 --> 00:09:45.183 align:center
Where it's always been.
It's in the mix.

00:09:45.184 --> 00:09:48.186 align:center
- Do you have the requisition?
- Uh-huh.

00:09:48.187 --> 00:09:51.523 align:center
Thank you, Chancellor.
Vanilla mucus is not my jam.

00:09:51.524 --> 00:09:53.224 align:center
Doctor, I would do
almost anything

00:09:53.225 --> 00:09:54.993 align:center
to end this conversation.

00:09:54.994 --> 00:09:57.128 align:center
- Your wish is my command,
Chancellor.
- Thank you so much.

00:09:57.129 --> 00:09:59.932 align:center
- For now. Have a delightful day.
- Okay, bye.

00:10:00.700 --> 00:10:04.336 align:center
Two more things. The Betazoid
delegation will arrive shortly.

00:10:04.337 --> 00:10:06.137 align:center
We sent a fleet
of Federation shuttles

00:10:06.138 --> 00:10:08.039 align:center
- as a gesture of goodwill.
- Mm.

00:10:08.040 --> 00:10:10.075 align:center
The Special Assembly
of the Diplomatic Council

00:10:10.076 --> 00:10:12.143 align:center
will convene,
and we're hosting a banquet

00:10:12.144 --> 00:10:14.212 align:center
- in their honor tomorrow night.
- Hello.

00:10:14.213 --> 00:10:15.347 align:center
- Carl. Stanley.
- Hi.

00:10:15.348 --> 00:10:17.215 align:center
- Hello.
- Larinda.

00:10:17.216 --> 00:10:20.752 align:center
You knew the Betazoids when they
were part of the Federation.

00:10:20.753 --> 00:10:23.288 align:center
What are the chances
they'll rejoin?

00:10:23.289 --> 00:10:26.992 align:center
Every loss hurt after the Burn,
but losing the Betazoids

00:10:26.993 --> 00:10:28.727 align:center
really tipped the scales.

00:10:28.728 --> 00:10:31.262 align:center
So, I'm just grateful
they're showing up.

00:10:31.263 --> 00:10:33.832 align:center
- Indeed.
- What was the second thing?

00:10:33.833 --> 00:10:35.734 align:center
Do you have
a cologne dependency?

00:10:35.735 --> 00:10:37.469 align:center
They regulate everything else,
why can't they regulate that?

00:10:37.470 --> 00:10:40.271 align:center
You hoard under your bed
like an actual rat.

00:10:40.272 --> 00:10:42.440 align:center
- And are you ever
gonna make your bed?
- Why would I?

00:10:42.441 --> 00:10:43.942 align:center
Seriously, it's like
rooming with a farm animal.

00:10:43.943 --> 00:10:45.276 align:center
By the way,
who has a banana allergy?

00:10:45.277 --> 00:10:46.511 align:center
- Is that even a thing?
- Yes, dick,

00:10:46.512 --> 00:10:48.413 align:center
it is a thing!

00:10:48.414 --> 00:10:49.914 align:center
Cadets?

00:10:49.915 --> 00:10:51.316 align:center
Where are you right now?

00:10:51.317 --> 00:10:53.618 align:center
It's not a trick question.

00:10:53.619 --> 00:10:55.120 align:center
In your office.

00:10:55.121 --> 00:10:56.488 align:center
Huh?

00:10:56.489 --> 00:10:58.757 align:center
We're cadets of
Starfleet Academy serving aboard

00:10:58.758 --> 00:11:00.091 align:center
the Starship Athena, Chancellor.

00:11:00.092 --> 00:11:01.626 align:center
Correct. If you
forget that again,

00:11:01.627 --> 00:11:03.895 align:center
I'll jettison the both of you
out the airlock.

00:11:03.896 --> 00:11:06.998 align:center
Mir, stand at attention
or leave.

00:11:06.999 --> 00:11:08.433 align:center
What do you want?

00:11:08.434 --> 00:11:10.169 align:center
We can't room in the same...

00:11:11.504 --> 00:11:12.871 align:center
- ...room.
- Why?

00:11:12.872 --> 00:11:14.572 align:center
It's an intensely personal
medical issue.

00:11:14.573 --> 00:11:15.807 align:center
- Really?
- Yeah.

00:11:15.808 --> 00:11:17.342 align:center
Severe allergies to him yelling,

00:11:17.343 --> 00:11:19.277 align:center
"Iced it!" every time
he shoots a balled-up sock

00:11:19.278 --> 00:11:21.012 align:center
- into his drawer.
- Not my fault you grew up
without socks.

00:11:21.013 --> 00:11:22.347 align:center
Or aim. Or balls.

00:11:22.348 --> 00:11:24.349 align:center
Good news, guys,
you do have something in common,

00:11:24.350 --> 00:11:27.352 align:center
you're both funny.
Aren't they funny?

00:11:27.353 --> 00:11:28.687 align:center
Is this a multiple choice?

00:11:28.688 --> 00:11:32.724 align:center
Request denied.
You, out. You, stay.

00:11:32.725 --> 00:11:36.494 align:center
The logs say you hacked
the exits on...

00:11:36.495 --> 00:11:39.864 align:center
Three separate occasions
in the last 12 hours.

00:11:39.865 --> 00:11:41.499 align:center
You told me to find hobbies.

00:11:41.500 --> 00:11:43.368 align:center
You have too much
spare time, Cadet?

00:11:43.369 --> 00:11:44.869 align:center
You need more menial labor?

00:11:44.870 --> 00:11:46.072 align:center
Nope.

00:11:46.872 --> 00:11:48.807 align:center
Nope... Chancellor?

00:11:49.709 --> 00:11:52.010 align:center
You chose this place, Mir.

00:11:52.011 --> 00:11:54.579 align:center
You made me a promise,
Chancellor.

00:11:54.580 --> 00:11:56.047 align:center
We'll find your mother.

00:11:56.048 --> 00:11:57.982 align:center
- If she's still alive.
- And when we do,

00:11:57.983 --> 00:12:01.286 align:center
I'll do everything I can
to make the Federation see

00:12:01.287 --> 00:12:03.188 align:center
that your mother's sentence
was extreme,

00:12:03.189 --> 00:12:04.889 align:center
even in a harsher time,

00:12:04.890 --> 00:12:07.192 align:center
but there doesn't seem to be
a Goja V

00:12:07.193 --> 00:12:09.561 align:center
in any Starfleet database.

00:12:09.562 --> 00:12:11.996 align:center
No planets, ships, moons. Zero.

00:12:11.997 --> 00:12:13.364 align:center
It doesn't seem to exist.

00:12:13.365 --> 00:12:14.365 align:center
So what?

00:12:14.366 --> 00:12:15.633 align:center
Someone's not in the database,

00:12:15.634 --> 00:12:16.735 align:center
they're not worth the effort?

00:12:16.736 --> 00:12:18.503 align:center
Even if they "make their bed"?

00:12:18.504 --> 00:12:20.872 align:center
The effort is what Starfleet is.

00:12:20.873 --> 00:12:22.540 align:center
And somewhere, you know that,

00:12:22.541 --> 00:12:25.043 align:center
or you would've already
busted out of here

00:12:25.044 --> 00:12:26.745 align:center
instead of just "trying to."

00:12:26.746 --> 00:12:28.079 align:center
I'm still here
'cause there's a system or two

00:12:28.080 --> 00:12:29.447 align:center
- I haven't hacked yet.
- What?

00:12:29.448 --> 00:12:31.249 align:center
Nothing, Cadet Master.

00:12:31.250 --> 00:12:32.751 align:center
Mir, have you considered that

00:12:32.752 --> 00:12:34.920 align:center
Nus Braka was lying
to mess with your head?

00:12:36.255 --> 00:12:37.789 align:center
Should I trust you to stay?

00:12:37.790 --> 00:12:40.191 align:center
Should I trust you to do
what you said you were gonna do?

00:12:40.192 --> 00:12:41.360 align:center
Yeah.

00:12:42.428 --> 00:12:44.530 align:center
Am I dismissed?

00:12:51.370 --> 00:12:53.438 align:center
He needs his ass kicked.

00:12:53.439 --> 00:12:56.641 align:center
He's been getting his ass kicked
his whole life.

00:12:56.642 --> 00:12:58.276 align:center
I think I'm gonna treat him
like somebody

00:12:58.277 --> 00:13:01.079 align:center
who actually does
what they say they're gonna do

00:13:01.080 --> 00:13:03.481 align:center
and see if that
fritzes his motherboard.

00:13:03.482 --> 00:13:06.284 align:center
The Betazoids are bringing
their Youth Delegation.

00:13:06.285 --> 00:13:07.952 align:center
They're the ones that pressured

00:13:07.953 --> 00:13:10.221 align:center
their government to enter
negotiations with us.

00:13:10.222 --> 00:13:12.390 align:center
Ooh.

00:13:12.391 --> 00:13:14.793 align:center
Activism. Love it.

00:13:14.794 --> 00:13:17.929 align:center
Specialist Krebs,
return to Science Lab 7.

00:13:17.930 --> 00:13:19.764 align:center
Your Talaxian Furfly
has come out of hibernation.

00:13:19.765 --> 00:13:21.065 align:center
Oh, Nahla.

00:13:21.066 --> 00:13:23.568 align:center
Commander Kelrec,
your counterpart

00:13:23.569 --> 00:13:25.737 align:center
- at the War College.
- Pleasure, Commander.

00:13:25.738 --> 00:13:29.307 align:center
Oh, uh, regulation footwear
is a requirement.

00:13:29.308 --> 00:13:31.242 align:center
Yeah, I heard that.

00:13:31.243 --> 00:13:33.478 align:center
I-I-I just don't like
wearing them if I don't have to.

00:13:33.479 --> 00:13:36.014 align:center
In all seriousness,
it's unsafe. You could...

00:13:36.015 --> 00:13:38.983 align:center
Stub my toe? Get a splinter?
I signed the waivers.

00:13:38.984 --> 00:13:40.819 align:center
Bare feet pick up electrons

00:13:40.820 --> 00:13:42.320 align:center
that reduce inflammation,

00:13:42.321 --> 00:13:44.489 align:center
up white blood cells
and cytokines,

00:13:44.490 --> 00:13:46.191 align:center
and stimulate brain activity.

00:13:46.192 --> 00:13:48.159 align:center
Plus, sometimes, I just need
to let the little piggies out

00:13:48.160 --> 00:13:50.295 align:center
to pasture, know what I mean?

00:13:50.296 --> 00:13:53.665 align:center
I can confidently say I do not.

00:13:53.666 --> 00:13:54.966 align:center
I've been informed you've

00:13:54.967 --> 00:13:56.868 align:center
asked to host
the Betazoid negotiations

00:13:56.869 --> 00:13:58.102 align:center
so you can bring children.

00:13:58.103 --> 00:14:00.505 align:center
Clearly, I've, uh, misheard.

00:14:00.506 --> 00:14:02.340 align:center
Ah, but you did not.

00:14:02.341 --> 00:14:03.875 align:center
It's an opportunity

00:14:03.876 --> 00:14:06.644 align:center
to teach our cadets
conflict resolution firsthand,

00:14:06.645 --> 00:14:09.113 align:center
and for them to learn
from their Betazed peers

00:14:09.114 --> 00:14:12.217 align:center
that advocating
for social change matters.

00:14:12.218 --> 00:14:13.284 align:center
How romantic.

00:14:13.285 --> 00:14:15.453 align:center
Your cynicism's pretty adorable.

00:14:15.454 --> 00:14:17.188 align:center
If you want to talk
about the good old days,

00:14:17.189 --> 00:14:18.556 align:center
I have more of them than you.

00:14:18.557 --> 00:14:22.994 align:center
We had to abandon Betazed
after the Burn.

00:14:22.995 --> 00:14:25.864 align:center
- They went through hell
with the Venari Ral.
- Uh...

00:14:25.865 --> 00:14:27.765 align:center
With marauders.

00:14:27.766 --> 00:14:29.334 align:center
So, they put up

00:14:29.335 --> 00:14:31.135 align:center
that psionic wall around their

00:14:31.136 --> 00:14:32.770 align:center
planetary system
and stayed behind it

00:14:32.771 --> 00:14:34.572 align:center
for over a hundred years.

00:14:34.573 --> 00:14:35.874 align:center
Nobody gets in or out.

00:14:35.875 --> 00:14:37.742 align:center
We can't even communicate
behind that wall.

00:14:37.743 --> 00:14:41.913 align:center
And then other systems joined
this big swath of cut-off space,

00:14:41.914 --> 00:14:45.817 align:center
but now their kids are saying,
"Let's rejoin the Federation,"

00:14:45.818 --> 00:14:47.819 align:center
because they don't want
to live like that anymore.

00:14:47.820 --> 00:14:49.921 align:center
Emrin Sadal is humoring them.

00:14:49.922 --> 00:14:52.957 align:center
He's an isolationist
who campaigned his presidency

00:14:52.958 --> 00:14:54.592 align:center
on keeping that wall up.

00:14:54.593 --> 00:14:56.027 align:center
He's also a Betazoid,

00:14:56.028 --> 00:14:58.496 align:center
an empath who can read
our feelings, Cranky.

00:14:58.497 --> 00:15:00.965 align:center
Is his preemptive
dismissal wise?

00:15:00.966 --> 00:15:02.233 align:center
Admiral Vance,

00:15:02.234 --> 00:15:04.168 align:center
priority transmission from FHQ.

00:15:04.169 --> 00:15:05.703 align:center
Walk with me.

00:15:05.704 --> 00:15:07.405 align:center
Should Betazed rejoin,

00:15:07.406 --> 00:15:10.575 align:center
20, 30 other worlds
rejoin with them.

00:15:10.576 --> 00:15:12.410 align:center
And hundreds of new species

00:15:12.411 --> 00:15:14.579 align:center
loyal to the Federation
to help us defend it.

00:15:14.580 --> 00:15:17.382 align:center
Not to mention
an extra 90 light-years

00:15:17.383 --> 00:15:19.584 align:center
of safe trade and passage
in a time

00:15:19.585 --> 00:15:21.119 align:center
when we're still rebuilding.

00:15:21.120 --> 00:15:25.256 align:center
I don't dispute how much
we need the Betazoids back.

00:15:25.257 --> 00:15:27.592 align:center
This is our one slim chance

00:15:27.593 --> 00:15:30.929 align:center
to bolster our standing
in the galaxy in a real way.

00:15:30.930 --> 00:15:33.197 align:center
Great, so what's the problem?

00:15:33.198 --> 00:15:35.600 align:center
These negotiations
are far too important

00:15:35.601 --> 00:15:37.101 align:center
to allow children to attend.

00:15:37.102 --> 00:15:41.205 align:center
Children are our ambassadors
to now, Commander.

00:15:41.206 --> 00:15:44.142 align:center
These children have seen
and experienced things

00:15:44.143 --> 00:15:45.376 align:center
far beyond their years.

00:15:45.377 --> 00:15:47.578 align:center
Okay. Come.

00:15:47.579 --> 00:15:49.682 align:center
Let's game it out.

00:15:50.616 --> 00:15:52.383 align:center
If Sadal goes back to his planet

00:15:52.384 --> 00:15:56.654 align:center
and says, "I tried, but
they couldn't meet our needs,"

00:15:56.655 --> 00:15:59.157 align:center
then he'll serve out
his ten-year term,

00:15:59.158 --> 00:16:01.559 align:center
and it'll take that long before
we ever get another chance.

00:16:01.560 --> 00:16:04.295 align:center
But if he does value
young voices,

00:16:04.296 --> 00:16:05.930 align:center
a young demographic,

00:16:05.931 --> 00:16:09.734 align:center
we need to let him know
that we do, too. Let's do it.

00:16:09.735 --> 00:16:12.303 align:center
Friends? In front
of the Betazoids,

00:16:12.304 --> 00:16:14.940 align:center
we're one big
happy family, yeah?

00:16:18.510 --> 00:16:20.011 align:center
The shortest distance

00:16:20.012 --> 00:16:24.916 align:center
between two points
is not a straight line.

00:16:24.917 --> 00:16:26.918 align:center
The laws of physics hate me

00:16:26.919 --> 00:16:30.254 align:center
because I should not be here.

00:16:30.255 --> 00:16:34.525 align:center
You, Girl With the Face
Begging to Be Singled Out,

00:16:34.526 --> 00:16:35.860 align:center
why do physics hate me?

00:16:35.861 --> 00:16:38.162 align:center
Because you're not
supposed to be here.

00:16:38.163 --> 00:16:39.530 align:center
Thumbs up for listening.

00:16:39.531 --> 00:16:42.100 align:center
- Entropy, time's arrow.
- Hey,

00:16:42.101 --> 00:16:43.901 align:center
you're absorbing
all the energy in the room.

00:16:43.902 --> 00:16:45.503 align:center
For real, you're like a sponge.

00:16:45.504 --> 00:16:49.207 align:center
- Can you chill?
- Guys, I was born in 2215

00:16:49.208 --> 00:16:51.676 align:center
and jumped almost a thousand
years into the future.

00:16:51.677 --> 00:16:55.714 align:center
You can go with the poetry
for five minutes.

00:16:58.017 --> 00:17:00.318 align:center
Whoop, red alert. New building,

00:17:00.319 --> 00:17:01.786 align:center
still working out the kinks.

00:17:01.787 --> 00:17:03.855 align:center
Just give me a second here.

00:17:03.856 --> 00:17:07.459 align:center
Goja V is not
a recognized location.

00:17:09.528 --> 00:17:11.796 align:center
Goja V is not
a recognized location.

00:17:11.797 --> 00:17:16.234 align:center
Hi. What's on Goja V?
You bored?

00:17:16.235 --> 00:17:18.303 align:center
Class not riveting enough
for you?

00:17:19.738 --> 00:17:22.507 align:center
Not bored, just like...

00:17:22.508 --> 00:17:23.708 align:center
what else?

00:17:23.709 --> 00:17:25.877 align:center
Excellent question.

00:17:25.878 --> 00:17:29.180 align:center
I guess Goja V is...

00:17:29.181 --> 00:17:31.349 align:center
sexier than entropy?

00:17:31.350 --> 00:17:33.651 align:center
More of a turn-on
than time itself?

00:17:33.652 --> 00:17:35.554 align:center
Enlighten us. Please.

00:17:38.223 --> 00:17:41.225 align:center
I can save everyone's time
by rerouting the power junction

00:17:41.226 --> 00:17:42.994 align:center
so that it has
a dedicated power supply,

00:17:42.995 --> 00:17:45.229 align:center
which is how it should've been
wired in the first place. Also,

00:17:45.230 --> 00:17:46.497 align:center
not to be rude,

00:17:46.498 --> 00:17:47.965 align:center
but there's nothing
you can teach me

00:17:47.966 --> 00:17:49.434 align:center
that I don't already know
about temporal mechanics,

00:17:49.435 --> 00:17:50.701 align:center
and I'm actually
trying to do some real shit,

00:17:50.702 --> 00:17:52.036 align:center
so let me get to it.

00:17:52.037 --> 00:17:54.405 align:center
Huh. "Some real shit"? Okay.

00:17:54.406 --> 00:17:57.208 align:center
Well, please, stand
at the front of the class.

00:17:57.209 --> 00:17:58.309 align:center
Are you kidding?

00:17:58.310 --> 00:17:59.544 align:center
Zero percent, Cadet.

00:17:59.545 --> 00:18:01.413 align:center
Introduce yourself to everyone.

00:18:02.781 --> 00:18:04.549 align:center
And, sadly,

00:18:04.550 --> 00:18:07.685 align:center
we don't offer a course
in accredited sulking.

00:18:07.686 --> 00:18:10.088 align:center
Plant your feet
and tell us who you are.

00:18:10.089 --> 00:18:11.456 align:center
Caleb Mir.

00:18:11.457 --> 00:18:13.257 align:center
Sorry, I'm-I'm not a bat.

00:18:13.258 --> 00:18:15.226 align:center
You have to speak
at a human volume.

00:18:15.227 --> 00:18:17.695 align:center
Caleb Mir.

00:18:17.696 --> 00:18:19.097 align:center
I didn't ask your name.

00:18:19.098 --> 00:18:20.731 align:center
I asked who you are.

00:18:20.732 --> 00:18:22.066 align:center
What do you stand for?

00:18:22.067 --> 00:18:23.434 align:center
Have you ever seen a ghost?

00:18:23.435 --> 00:18:24.902 align:center
Made a mixtape?

00:18:24.903 --> 00:18:29.740 align:center
What is the worst
birthday present you ever got?

00:18:29.741 --> 00:18:31.409 align:center
- Arrested.
- Awesome.

00:18:31.410 --> 00:18:33.544 align:center
Can never have
enough misdemeanors

00:18:33.545 --> 00:18:35.947 align:center
in quantum physics,
if you ask me.

00:18:35.948 --> 00:18:37.515 align:center
Okay, here's an easy one,

00:18:37.516 --> 00:18:40.552 align:center
the name of this cadet?

00:18:44.356 --> 00:18:48.626 align:center
Being a cadet
in Starfleet Academy means

00:18:48.627 --> 00:18:52.563 align:center
being open to the people
around you,

00:18:52.564 --> 00:18:55.666 align:center
and that connection
is where time and space

00:18:55.667 --> 00:18:57.602 align:center
- really live.
- I don't need connection.

00:18:57.603 --> 00:19:00.972 align:center
Yeah, yeah. You're a genius
who owns all the suffering.

00:19:00.973 --> 00:19:02.907 align:center
I only know two things, kid.

00:19:02.908 --> 00:19:05.776 align:center
Number one:
"Old age and treachery

00:19:05.777 --> 00:19:08.980 align:center
always triumph over youth
and a smart mouth."

00:19:08.981 --> 00:19:11.682 align:center
Oscar Wilde. Love that dude.

00:19:11.683 --> 00:19:13.384 align:center
Fun fact, when he died,

00:19:13.385 --> 00:19:15.820 align:center
they had to put glass
over his tombstone

00:19:15.821 --> 00:19:17.321 align:center
because people kept trying
to make out with it.

00:19:17.322 --> 00:19:20.424 align:center
- Whoa.
- Number two: A smart mouth

00:19:20.425 --> 00:19:22.994 align:center
isn't worth a damn
without wisdom.

00:19:22.995 --> 00:19:25.096 align:center
But what do I know?

00:19:25.097 --> 00:19:26.864 align:center
I'm old and boring.

00:19:28.600 --> 00:19:30.468 align:center
Attention, all cadets.

00:19:30.469 --> 00:19:32.336 align:center
Third instruction period
will begin in eight minutes.

00:19:32.337 --> 00:19:35.307 align:center
You have seven minutes to get
your next caffeine fix.

00:19:35.807 --> 00:19:37.141 align:center
- Oh!
- I'm sorry.

00:19:37.142 --> 00:19:39.577 align:center
I'm sorry. Sorry.

00:19:39.578 --> 00:19:41.345 align:center
Biohazardous material detected.

00:19:48.687 --> 00:19:50.388 align:center
Mucus neutralized.

00:19:50.389 --> 00:19:51.989 align:center
Have a nice day.

00:19:54.860 --> 00:19:57.095 align:center
I love this school.

00:20:00.365 --> 00:20:02.300 align:center
No, I'm out of here.

00:20:02.301 --> 00:20:04.770 align:center
I'm out of here. I'm done.

00:20:07.372 --> 00:20:09.207 align:center
Cadet Mir,
you're outside

00:20:09.208 --> 00:20:10.474 align:center
your permitted bounds.

00:20:10.475 --> 00:20:12.343 align:center
Negotiations begin
in eight minutes.

00:20:12.344 --> 00:20:14.478 align:center
Quick, list every coffee order
ever ordered.

00:20:14.479 --> 00:20:16.514 align:center
- Drip. Organic espresso.
- In every caffeinated planet.

00:20:16.515 --> 00:20:18.216 align:center
- Organically farmed
single-origin drip.
- Faster.

00:20:18.217 --> 00:20:19.717 align:center
- In every quadrant.
- Espresso. Semi-whipped...

00:20:19.718 --> 00:20:21.352 align:center
While singing
the Fibonacci sequence.

00:20:21.353 --> 00:20:23.454 align:center
Backwards from 10,946.

00:20:26.124 --> 00:20:28.726 align:center
Americano with coconut water.
Americano with coconut milk.

00:20:35.534 --> 00:20:37.169 align:center
Where are you going?

00:20:44.076 --> 00:20:45.777 align:center
Why are you climbing the fence?

00:20:46.945 --> 00:20:48.679 align:center
Fence-onomics... class.

00:20:48.680 --> 00:20:51.749 align:center
- Yeah, that's not a thing.
- Well, could be.

00:20:51.750 --> 00:20:54.085 align:center
There's a lot of classes here.

00:20:54.086 --> 00:20:56.854 align:center
Why is your jacket covered in...

00:20:56.855 --> 00:20:58.689 align:center
snot?

00:21:01.059 --> 00:21:03.394 align:center
Because I'm clearly thriving.

00:21:04.529 --> 00:21:06.831 align:center
Hey, um, did you...

00:21:06.832 --> 00:21:08.900 align:center
did you kill it?

00:21:10.502 --> 00:21:12.970 align:center
Overloaded
its processing buffers.

00:21:12.971 --> 00:21:15.440 align:center
Please don't tell anyone.

00:21:19.811 --> 00:21:21.579 align:center
You're trying to leave.

00:21:21.580 --> 00:21:24.016 align:center
But you're not sure.

00:21:24.883 --> 00:21:27.718 align:center
You're kind of... regretting it?

00:21:27.719 --> 00:21:29.453 align:center
You think you're being

00:21:29.454 --> 00:21:31.856 align:center
a big, stupid idiot.

00:21:31.857 --> 00:21:33.491 align:center
Wow.

00:21:33.492 --> 00:21:35.027 align:center
That's a lot of conflict.

00:21:37.262 --> 00:21:39.030 align:center
Nope.

00:21:39.031 --> 00:21:40.298 align:center
No conflict.

00:21:40.299 --> 00:21:42.833 align:center
You're literally on the fence.

00:21:44.970 --> 00:21:46.538 align:center
Great.

00:21:52.077 --> 00:21:53.879 align:center
I escaped into therapy.

00:22:08.994 --> 00:22:11.263 align:center
Can I just have
a meltdown in peace?

00:22:23.175 --> 00:22:25.043 align:center
I should go.

00:22:27.346 --> 00:22:30.015 align:center
Hey. Wait, what's your name?

00:22:31.683 --> 00:22:33.017 align:center
Where are you going?

00:22:33.018 --> 00:22:35.252 align:center
Uh, I think
I asked you that first.

00:22:35.253 --> 00:22:37.822 align:center
What do you mean
you asked me first? Whoa!

00:22:37.823 --> 00:22:39.990 align:center
Guys, what the hell?

00:22:39.991 --> 00:22:42.026 align:center
Why are you out of bounds,
Caleb Mir?

00:22:42.027 --> 00:22:44.795 align:center
I'm with my friend. Look,
she's walking away. Look. Look.

00:22:44.796 --> 00:22:47.398 align:center
Look, there's a Borg! Look!

00:22:47.399 --> 00:22:50.301 align:center
Please rise to welcome
President Emrin Sadal

00:22:50.302 --> 00:22:53.070 align:center
and the Betazed Youth Delegation

00:22:53.071 --> 00:22:54.773 align:center
to Starfleet Academy.

00:23:10.088 --> 00:23:11.422 align:center
Shut up.

00:23:11.423 --> 00:23:15.092 align:center
Mr. President, welcome.

00:23:15.093 --> 00:23:17.195 align:center
Everyone, please sit.

00:23:25.804 --> 00:23:27.104 align:center
Friends, welcome.

00:23:27.105 --> 00:23:29.640 align:center
On behalf of
the Federation, we, uh,

00:23:29.641 --> 00:23:32.410 align:center
are humbly aware
that we failed you

00:23:32.411 --> 00:23:34.111 align:center
in the aftermath of the Burn.

00:23:34.112 --> 00:23:37.181 align:center
Our resources were
stretched very thin.

00:23:37.182 --> 00:23:39.250 align:center
We have deep admiration
for how you kept

00:23:39.251 --> 00:23:40.985 align:center
your planetary system whole.

00:23:40.986 --> 00:23:45.190 align:center
Now, the Federation
is not whole without Betazed.

00:23:51.129 --> 00:23:52.997 align:center
Betazed appreciates

00:23:52.998 --> 00:23:56.167 align:center
the Federation's accurate
assessment of its failures.

00:23:56.168 --> 00:23:57.902 align:center
As I read your lips, Admiral,

00:23:57.903 --> 00:24:01.472 align:center
your eyes are already making
the next request.

00:24:01.473 --> 00:24:05.309 align:center
You are about to ask us
to lower our wall.

00:24:05.310 --> 00:24:06.677 align:center
I am.

00:24:06.678 --> 00:24:08.012 align:center
And in return,

00:24:08.013 --> 00:24:10.781 align:center
we offer our partnership
and our protection.

00:24:10.782 --> 00:24:12.616 align:center
Protection for Betazed

00:24:12.617 --> 00:24:14.752 align:center
would require
12 battle-ready starships

00:24:14.753 --> 00:24:16.821 align:center
to remain within
five light-years of our planet

00:24:16.822 --> 00:24:18.322 align:center
at all times,

00:24:18.323 --> 00:24:21.692 align:center
six seats on the
Federation security council,

00:24:21.693 --> 00:24:23.494 align:center
and the power to veto

00:24:23.495 --> 00:24:27.264 align:center
any potential new Federation
member without consensus.

00:24:30.435 --> 00:24:33.337 align:center
The Federation is a democracy,
Mr. President.

00:24:33.338 --> 00:24:35.906 align:center
Veto without consensus

00:24:35.907 --> 00:24:38.042 align:center
strips us of our core identity.

00:24:38.043 --> 00:24:41.779 align:center
Your identity
isn't our concern, Admiral.

00:24:41.780 --> 00:24:45.183 align:center
Easy, easy.

00:24:46.151 --> 00:24:47.752 align:center
What is this, prison?

00:25:01.132 --> 00:25:04.568 align:center
Mr. President, you've brought
your Youth Delegation,

00:25:04.569 --> 00:25:06.136 align:center
your future,

00:25:06.137 --> 00:25:08.572 align:center
out from behind the wall,
for the first time,

00:25:08.573 --> 00:25:10.908 align:center
as I understand.

00:25:10.909 --> 00:25:12.376 align:center
Our future sits here
for the first time

00:25:12.377 --> 00:25:14.246 align:center
in a hundred years.

00:25:15.046 --> 00:25:17.248 align:center
Progress is the acceptance
of identity,

00:25:17.249 --> 00:25:18.750 align:center
not the negation of it.

00:25:20.118 --> 00:25:21.552 align:center
- Ow.
- Hmm.

00:25:21.553 --> 00:25:23.721 align:center
That is an abstraction.

00:25:23.722 --> 00:25:25.356 align:center
Until someone makes it real.

00:25:25.357 --> 00:25:27.024 align:center
For Betazed,

00:25:27.025 --> 00:25:30.461 align:center
real is the spilt blood
of our elders and children

00:25:30.462 --> 00:25:32.530 align:center
at the hands of the Venari Ral.

00:25:32.531 --> 00:25:36.400 align:center
If you can't provide us
with what we need,

00:25:36.401 --> 00:25:39.670 align:center
this will be
a very short negotiation.

00:25:39.671 --> 00:25:44.174 align:center
President Sadal, we view
your passion as a great gift.

00:25:44.175 --> 00:25:47.211 align:center
Please allow me a short window
to discuss with the Federation

00:25:47.212 --> 00:25:48.746 align:center
the terms you've proposed.

00:25:48.747 --> 00:25:51.983 align:center
Shall we regroup
after a short hiatus?

00:25:54.653 --> 00:25:56.153 align:center
Nothing like a good

00:25:56.154 --> 00:25:58.088 align:center
plenary session
to make you hungry.

00:25:58.089 --> 00:25:59.890 align:center
Refreshments
in the Kirk Pavilion

00:25:59.891 --> 00:26:01.092 align:center
during the hiatus.

00:26:12.671 --> 00:26:14.773 align:center
Admiral.

00:26:16.274 --> 00:26:18.208 align:center
My daughter and son would enjoy

00:26:18.209 --> 00:26:20.311 align:center
a tour of your campuses
while we pause.

00:26:20.312 --> 00:26:23.414 align:center
Mr. President, we're happy
to find suitable guides.

00:26:23.415 --> 00:26:27.518 align:center
Examples of the excellence
we strive for in our cadets.

00:26:27.519 --> 00:26:29.020 align:center
Him.

00:26:33.858 --> 00:26:36.293 align:center
Him.

00:26:36.294 --> 00:26:38.163 align:center
Uh?

00:26:39.798 --> 00:26:43.567 align:center
50 hours off my menial labor.

00:26:43.568 --> 00:26:44.970 align:center
No.

00:26:46.137 --> 00:26:48.405 align:center
60. And this couch is ugly.

00:26:48.406 --> 00:26:49.840 align:center
You should give it to me
for my room.

00:26:49.841 --> 00:26:51.175 align:center
It's a chaise.

00:26:51.176 --> 00:26:52.943 align:center
Hmm.

00:26:52.944 --> 00:26:55.946 align:center
Off, knucklehead. Ten.

00:26:55.947 --> 00:26:59.049 align:center
Mm, I'll think about it.

00:26:59.050 --> 00:27:02.487 align:center
And I'll need you to fire
the temporal mechanics teacher.

00:27:11.329 --> 00:27:13.130 align:center
That's not an apple.

00:27:13.131 --> 00:27:15.766 align:center
- It's a Virulian fire-fruit.
- Why?

00:27:15.767 --> 00:27:17.801 align:center
I burned off whatever
nerve endings I had,

00:27:17.802 --> 00:27:19.069 align:center
like, 300 years ago.

00:27:22.173 --> 00:27:23.340 align:center
This isn't a game.

00:27:23.341 --> 00:27:25.409 align:center
Tarima Sadal is a leader

00:27:25.410 --> 00:27:28.078 align:center
in the very influential
Betazoid youth movement.

00:27:28.079 --> 00:27:30.514 align:center
She needs to come back
with a genuine understanding

00:27:30.515 --> 00:27:31.715 align:center
of what this place is.

00:27:31.716 --> 00:27:33.417 align:center
Not what you think it is.

00:27:33.418 --> 00:27:36.353 align:center
- So don't show her
the busted replicator?
- Huh?

00:27:36.354 --> 00:27:37.855 align:center
My soup was freezing.

00:27:37.856 --> 00:27:39.256 align:center
Gazpacho.

00:27:39.257 --> 00:27:41.191 align:center
- It's served like that.
- Oh.

00:27:41.192 --> 00:27:43.728 align:center
Well, I serve like this.

00:27:46.898 --> 00:27:48.400 align:center
I'll do it...

00:27:49.634 --> 00:27:52.136 align:center
...if you give me access
to the Stellar Cartography lab.

00:27:52.137 --> 00:27:53.704 align:center
One hour.

00:27:53.705 --> 00:27:54.972 align:center
No illegal hacking.

00:27:54.973 --> 00:27:56.640 align:center
And if I don't find Goja V,

00:27:56.641 --> 00:27:58.509 align:center
I'll...

00:27:58.510 --> 00:28:02.113 align:center
trust you to do the looking.

00:28:04.215 --> 00:28:05.649 align:center
Dismissed.

00:28:05.650 --> 00:28:07.251 align:center
You... you...

00:28:07.252 --> 00:28:09.520 align:center
can't dismiss yourself.

00:28:09.521 --> 00:28:11.055 align:center
But I did, though.

00:28:11.056 --> 00:28:14.825 align:center
Caleb, people will live and die

00:28:14.826 --> 00:28:16.795 align:center
because of what happens today.

00:28:20.432 --> 00:28:22.066 align:center
Cool.

00:28:22.067 --> 00:28:24.735 align:center
Love it here.

00:28:24.736 --> 00:28:27.172 align:center
♪ My blue heaven ♪

00:28:28.573 --> 00:28:30.574 align:center
♪ My blue ♪

00:28:30.575 --> 00:28:33.278 align:center
♪ Heaven. ♪

00:28:47.525 --> 00:28:51.161 align:center
Attention, all cadets
in the Turner Wing.

00:28:51.162 --> 00:28:52.796 align:center
If you need an afternoon
pick-me-up,

00:28:52.797 --> 00:28:54.531 align:center
visit the newly reopened
Replicafé

00:28:54.532 --> 00:28:56.734 align:center
for a complimentary
espresso drink.

00:28:56.735 --> 00:28:59.803 align:center
We're also thrilled to announce
that we now serve Raktajino.

00:28:59.804 --> 00:29:01.940 align:center
Qapla'!

00:29:03.274 --> 00:29:06.744 align:center
So... this is the...

00:29:06.745 --> 00:29:08.178 align:center
- Turner Wing.
- Hmm.

00:29:08.179 --> 00:29:09.480 align:center
- Yeah.
- Turner.

00:29:09.481 --> 00:29:11.181 align:center
Uh, yeah. Uh-huh.

00:29:11.182 --> 00:29:12.816 align:center
Turner must've been flush.

00:29:12.817 --> 00:29:14.384 align:center
This wing is shiny.

00:29:14.385 --> 00:29:16.120 align:center
Yeah, at heart, though,
he was a grunt.

00:29:16.121 --> 00:29:17.654 align:center
- Oh.
- Oh, yeah,
a man of the people.

00:29:17.655 --> 00:29:18.989 align:center
- Oh.
- Meat and potatoes.

00:29:18.990 --> 00:29:20.824 align:center
Tough if you
got out of line, but...

00:29:20.825 --> 00:29:22.192 align:center
But, on a battlefield,

00:29:22.193 --> 00:29:24.027 align:center
he's the one you want
covering your back.

00:29:24.028 --> 00:29:25.963 align:center
- Actually, he was a disaster
on the battlefield.
- Okay.

00:29:25.964 --> 00:29:27.164 align:center
No sense of direction.

00:29:27.165 --> 00:29:29.066 align:center
High-fived
all his superior officers.

00:29:29.067 --> 00:29:31.835 align:center
I heard he put pips on his dog
and left him in charge once.

00:29:31.836 --> 00:29:34.171 align:center
- No, he did.
- Yeah, I heard that, too.

00:29:34.172 --> 00:29:36.707 align:center
And that he, uh,
made everybody learn Welsh,

00:29:36.708 --> 00:29:38.776 align:center
and he didn't even speak Welsh,
so, you know...

00:29:38.777 --> 00:29:40.110 align:center
...he couldn't
understand anybody.

00:29:40.111 --> 00:29:41.645 align:center
I guess he just felt
so inadequate

00:29:41.646 --> 00:29:44.181 align:center
that his parents decided
to donate a space station

00:29:44.182 --> 00:29:46.250 align:center
- just so he could get a hall.
- Yeah.

00:29:55.360 --> 00:29:57.995 align:center
So you've never been anywhere
outside of Betazed's wall?

00:29:57.996 --> 00:30:00.264 align:center
- Uh, no. Never.
- Why?

00:30:00.265 --> 00:30:03.367 align:center
A lot of us don't want
to live behind it anymore.

00:30:03.368 --> 00:30:05.068 align:center
- Oh.
- But, at the same time,

00:30:05.069 --> 00:30:06.370 align:center
it's my home.

00:30:06.371 --> 00:30:07.538 align:center
Thanks.

00:30:07.539 --> 00:30:10.407 align:center
My people, you know?

00:30:10.408 --> 00:30:12.376 align:center
Uh, yeah. Yeah.

00:30:12.377 --> 00:30:14.579 align:center
Why were you trying to leave?

00:30:15.513 --> 00:30:17.281 align:center
Uh...

00:30:17.282 --> 00:30:20.285 align:center
You never told me what you
were doing when you found me.

00:30:22.353 --> 00:30:24.721 align:center
Humpback whales.

00:30:24.722 --> 00:30:26.356 align:center
I heard they were migrating,

00:30:26.357 --> 00:30:28.392 align:center
but they were a no-show.

00:30:28.393 --> 00:30:31.829 align:center
Sometimes, it's just good
to see something really big.

00:30:31.830 --> 00:30:35.599 align:center
Like, you know,
a live thing that's big,

00:30:35.600 --> 00:30:38.268 align:center
that just doesn't really
care about you.

00:30:38.269 --> 00:30:41.505 align:center
I mean...
lets you remember that,

00:30:41.506 --> 00:30:43.874 align:center
whatever you're worried about,
you just

00:30:43.875 --> 00:30:47.678 align:center
- do not matter to this whale.
- Mm-hmm.

00:30:47.679 --> 00:30:50.782 align:center
It's freeing, you know?

00:30:52.250 --> 00:30:53.651 align:center
Yeah.

00:30:55.253 --> 00:30:58.156 align:center
Like, no one ever goes,
"Oh, that whale's lost."

00:31:00.391 --> 00:31:02.693 align:center
They got the whole ocean
to swim in.

00:31:02.694 --> 00:31:05.128 align:center
Are you a whale

00:31:05.129 --> 00:31:09.533 align:center
or a thing that gets lost
in this scenario?

00:31:09.534 --> 00:31:11.401 align:center
Uh...

00:31:11.402 --> 00:31:13.638 align:center
Let you know
when I figure it out.

00:31:15.406 --> 00:31:17.274 align:center
- This is why I picked you.
- Why?

00:31:17.275 --> 00:31:20.544 align:center
You're the only person here
not excreting Starfleet pride

00:31:20.545 --> 00:31:23.981 align:center
out of every orifice.

00:31:23.982 --> 00:31:25.482 align:center
I want to thank you
for the compliment,

00:31:25.483 --> 00:31:28.085 align:center
but I also want to ask you
to never say "excreting"

00:31:28.086 --> 00:31:29.553 align:center
and "orifice" to me again.

00:31:31.322 --> 00:31:34.992 align:center
Okay, look, this is gonna be
embarrassing for you,

00:31:34.993 --> 00:31:37.294 align:center
but I think you have
something on your tooth.

00:31:37.295 --> 00:31:39.730 align:center
Wait, what?
Oh, my God, what is it?

00:31:39.731 --> 00:31:41.365 align:center
- I don't know.
- Is it a piece of food?

00:31:41.366 --> 00:31:43.467 align:center
- It's not a piece of food.
- A piece of gum?

00:31:43.468 --> 00:31:46.037 align:center
- It's not a piece of gum.
- A... gem...

00:31:47.171 --> 00:31:50.240 align:center
...representing
the sacred eye of Naxia

00:31:50.241 --> 00:31:52.409 align:center
ritually bestowed upon
the first daughter

00:31:52.410 --> 00:31:54.244 align:center
of the first house
when she reaches Moonflow

00:31:54.245 --> 00:31:57.147 align:center
and becomes Guardian
of the Holy Mantle of Betazed?

00:31:57.148 --> 00:31:58.348 align:center
- Hmm?
- Mm...

00:31:58.349 --> 00:31:59.983 align:center
- I mean, I wouldn't know.
- Yes.

00:32:01.152 --> 00:32:02.986 align:center
See? Cultural exchange.

00:32:02.987 --> 00:32:06.157 align:center
We're learning so much
about each other.

00:32:07.659 --> 00:32:10.028 align:center
- Listen.
- Okay.

00:32:11.229 --> 00:32:12.796 align:center
I got to do a thing.

00:32:12.797 --> 00:32:15.399 align:center
Hmm. "Thing" sounds illegal.

00:32:15.400 --> 00:32:17.267 align:center
I'm looking for a planet.

00:32:17.268 --> 00:32:18.936 align:center
A planet I can't access.

00:32:18.937 --> 00:32:20.671 align:center
No one can access.

00:32:20.672 --> 00:32:24.208 align:center
- Why?
- Left my keys there.

00:32:26.177 --> 00:32:29.980 align:center
All right, so this is
our Stellar Cartography lab.

00:32:29.981 --> 00:32:32.549 align:center
One of Turner's favorites.

00:32:32.550 --> 00:32:34.651 align:center
Wow.

00:32:34.652 --> 00:32:36.653 align:center
Computer, reduce safety filters.

00:32:36.654 --> 00:32:38.455 align:center
Pull up Goja V and enhance.

00:32:38.456 --> 00:32:41.059 align:center
Beginning scan
of Federation maps.

00:32:41.893 --> 00:32:43.561 align:center
Scanning...

00:32:44.395 --> 00:32:47.065 align:center
Scanning...

00:32:49.200 --> 00:32:51.402 align:center
Scanning...

00:32:53.871 --> 00:32:56.840 align:center
Goja V, no such location found.

00:32:56.841 --> 00:32:58.676 align:center
Hmm.

00:32:59.510 --> 00:33:02.080 align:center
Someone was on that planet.

00:33:02.914 --> 00:33:05.216 align:center
Someone you care about.

00:33:05.984 --> 00:33:08.385 align:center
Can't hide anything
from you, huh?

00:33:08.386 --> 00:33:09.920 align:center
Let's make a deal.

00:33:09.921 --> 00:33:11.388 align:center
You trust me,

00:33:11.389 --> 00:33:14.058 align:center
let me behind the curtain
a little.

00:33:15.326 --> 00:33:16.728 align:center
I'll trust you.

00:33:18.262 --> 00:33:19.397 align:center
Okay.

00:33:20.665 --> 00:33:24.736 align:center
Oh, you mean, like, right now?
The trust thing happens now?

00:33:27.972 --> 00:33:31.075 align:center
Accessing Betazed
governmental star charts.

00:33:35.780 --> 00:33:38.249 align:center
What did you just do?

00:33:39.884 --> 00:33:41.586 align:center
Try your scan now.

00:33:47.558 --> 00:33:49.093 align:center
Computer.

00:33:54.032 --> 00:33:55.365 align:center
Show me Goja V.

00:33:55.366 --> 00:33:58.101 align:center
Goja V located.

00:34:05.410 --> 00:34:07.577 align:center
Why isn't it
in Starfleet's database?

00:34:07.578 --> 00:34:12.116 align:center
It-it probably formed post-Burn
behind our psionic barrier.

00:34:16.654 --> 00:34:19.990 align:center
Goja V has something to do with
why you're trying to escape.

00:34:19.991 --> 00:34:24.162 align:center
Caleb, I need
to understand this place.

00:34:25.897 --> 00:34:28.766 align:center
Why does it feel
like you're a prisoner here?

00:34:29.534 --> 00:34:31.636 align:center
Why does it feel
like you are, too?

00:34:32.437 --> 00:34:35.606 align:center
There's a whole universe
outside your wall.

00:34:37.108 --> 00:34:39.677 align:center
Ask me about it.

00:34:40.745 --> 00:34:42.779 align:center
I've seen things
on my many travels.

00:34:42.780 --> 00:34:44.748 align:center
What are you,
like, an old prospector?

00:34:44.749 --> 00:34:47.084 align:center
Okay, come on, you try
to blow my mind, then.

00:34:47.085 --> 00:34:49.453 align:center
Betazed has naked weddings.

00:34:49.454 --> 00:34:51.655 align:center
That sounds awkward
for everybody.

00:34:51.656 --> 00:34:54.291 align:center
All cadets,
negotiations will now resume

00:34:54.292 --> 00:34:56.126 align:center
- in the Sato Atrium.
- Shoot. We got to go.

00:34:56.127 --> 00:34:58.295 align:center
We're prepared to offer you
four starships,

00:34:58.296 --> 00:35:00.263 align:center
three seats
on the security council,

00:35:00.264 --> 00:35:03.167 align:center
and meaningful input
into new members.

00:35:04.602 --> 00:35:06.169 align:center
Somewhere in the galaxy,

00:35:06.170 --> 00:35:08.839 align:center
the Venari Ral just celebrated.

00:35:08.840 --> 00:35:13.009 align:center
Last month, two massive raids
attempted to breach the wall.

00:35:13.010 --> 00:35:16.713 align:center
We could've been reduced
to ash in moments.

00:35:16.714 --> 00:35:19.149 align:center
Perhaps because
Betazed is falling behind

00:35:19.150 --> 00:35:21.953 align:center
all other planets
in technological advancements?

00:35:22.687 --> 00:35:24.988 align:center
Without external access,
your technology will be

00:35:24.989 --> 00:35:27.524 align:center
virtually obsolete
within a decade.

00:35:27.525 --> 00:35:29.359 align:center
Forget a decade.

00:35:29.360 --> 00:35:31.828 align:center
Who knows
when the next Burn hits?

00:35:31.829 --> 00:35:33.630 align:center
You're asking me to take chances

00:35:33.631 --> 00:35:36.066 align:center
on people I haven't
even met yet.

00:35:36.067 --> 00:35:38.603 align:center
I'm asking you
to take a chance on them.

00:35:45.209 --> 00:35:46.744 align:center
Let's retire for the night.

00:35:52.116 --> 00:35:53.617 align:center
Well, that wasn't great.

00:35:53.618 --> 00:35:55.085 align:center
I should go.

00:35:55.086 --> 00:35:57.288 align:center
- I need to see my father.
- Wait.

00:35:58.189 --> 00:36:00.290 align:center
Uh...

00:36:00.291 --> 00:36:02.293 align:center
You want to see a thing?

00:36:04.128 --> 00:36:06.597 align:center
This one might cheer us both up.

00:36:17.975 --> 00:36:20.277 align:center
I can't sleep in this place,

00:36:20.278 --> 00:36:22.713 align:center
and so I wander around
at night and...

00:36:25.449 --> 00:36:26.918 align:center
...found this.

00:36:30.121 --> 00:36:32.222 align:center
Lady Tarima of Betazed,

00:36:32.223 --> 00:36:36.726 align:center
may I introduce you
to the humpback whale of Earth.

00:37:20.771 --> 00:37:22.373 align:center
She's pregnant.

00:37:43.828 --> 00:37:46.464 align:center
The galaxy is paradise.

00:37:49.267 --> 00:37:51.334 align:center
You get to live in it.

00:37:51.335 --> 00:37:53.638 align:center
You can, too.

00:37:58.175 --> 00:38:02.013 align:center
I have... responsibilities.

00:38:02.847 --> 00:38:04.314 align:center
To your father?

00:38:04.315 --> 00:38:06.050 align:center
To Betazed.

00:38:11.689 --> 00:38:13.457 align:center
Thank you for this.

00:38:15.459 --> 00:38:18.062 align:center
So much.

00:38:20.364 --> 00:38:23.466 align:center
I kind of want
to let it all out and scream.

00:38:23.467 --> 00:38:24.801 align:center
No, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no.

00:38:30.941 --> 00:38:32.409 align:center
Tarima.

00:38:32.410 --> 00:38:34.377 align:center
We've been looking everywhere
for you.

00:38:34.378 --> 00:38:37.247 align:center
Let everyone know we've located
the president's daughter.

00:38:37.248 --> 00:38:39.549 align:center
I expected friction here,

00:38:39.550 --> 00:38:42.152 align:center
but not reckless disrespect.

00:38:42.153 --> 00:38:44.121 align:center
I cannot apologize enough.

00:38:44.989 --> 00:38:46.190 align:center
Let's go.

00:38:58.869 --> 00:39:00.370 align:center
Okay, okay. Not great, I know.

00:39:00.371 --> 00:39:01.871 align:center
I know what you're gonna say,
but listen.

00:39:01.872 --> 00:39:03.807 align:center
Goja V is real.
It's behind the wall.

00:39:03.808 --> 00:39:07.243 align:center
- I don't know how my mom
got through, but...
- This is not about you.

Mr. President, I trust
your daughter's visit

00:40:51.782 --> 00:40:53.450 align:center
to the War College
went well today?

00:40:53.451 --> 00:40:55.084 align:center
It was certainly less eventful

00:40:55.085 --> 00:40:57.053 align:center
than last night.

00:40:57.054 --> 00:40:59.989 align:center
You've made a commendable
start here, Admiral.

00:40:59.990 --> 00:41:01.391 align:center
Despite our differences,

00:41:01.392 --> 00:41:03.426 align:center
I don't envy the task
ahead of you.

00:41:03.427 --> 00:41:04.427 align:center
Thank you.

00:41:04.428 --> 00:41:06.229 align:center
Many people, many opinions.

00:41:06.230 --> 00:41:07.831 align:center
Speaking of which,

00:41:07.832 --> 00:41:10.366 align:center
we're about to break ground
on our new seat of government

00:41:10.367 --> 00:41:11.935 align:center
in its old home of Paris.

00:41:11.936 --> 00:41:15.605 align:center
Ah,
"The more things stay the same."

00:41:15.606 --> 00:41:19.944 align:center
Would you agree progress
is impossible without change?

00:41:21.812 --> 00:41:24.914 align:center
I believe that most people
who say they want progress

00:41:24.915 --> 00:41:26.350 align:center
don't really want to change.

00:41:27.952 --> 00:41:31.021 align:center
Which often makes both
impossible.

00:41:31.922 --> 00:41:33.356 align:center
Touché.

00:41:33.357 --> 00:41:35.658 align:center
I'll say it:
that dude's judgy as hell

00:41:35.659 --> 00:41:38.127 align:center
and I don't care if he can sense
that I think that.

00:41:38.128 --> 00:41:41.197 align:center
Hmm, one-on-one.
Their best, our best.

00:41:41.198 --> 00:41:43.299 align:center
To the death.

00:41:43.300 --> 00:41:44.968 align:center
It's just quicker sometimes.

00:41:44.969 --> 00:41:47.270 align:center
- What is wrong with you?
- Ick.

00:41:47.271 --> 00:41:49.138 align:center
Seriously,
what is wrong with you?

00:41:49.139 --> 00:41:50.840 align:center
Bye. See you soon.

00:41:50.841 --> 00:41:53.276 align:center
- Can I talk to you for a sec?
- Yeah, what's wrong?

00:41:53.277 --> 00:41:55.311 align:center
People keep telling me
to "chill" and that I'm "a lot"

00:41:55.312 --> 00:41:57.146 align:center
and that I give
"unpaid dating coach energy,"

00:41:57.147 --> 00:42:00.183 align:center
and I don't think
it's a compliment.

00:42:00.184 --> 00:42:02.052 align:center
Maybe I don't fit here.

00:42:02.887 --> 00:42:04.454 align:center
I woke up at 4:00 a.m.

00:42:04.455 --> 00:42:07.357 align:center
to run while memorizing
the Vulcan alphabet backwards.

00:42:07.358 --> 00:42:08.625 align:center
We fit here.

00:42:08.626 --> 00:42:10.994 align:center
And how are we this evening, ladies?

00:42:10.995 --> 00:42:12.462 align:center
To be honest, I'm actually
a bit depressed...

00:42:12.463 --> 00:42:14.097 align:center
- No, let's go.
- Okay. Bye.

00:42:15.699 --> 00:42:17.767 align:center
Chancellor Ake, I question why

00:42:17.768 --> 00:42:20.503 align:center
you cling so fiercely
to the idea of returning

00:42:20.504 --> 00:42:23.606 align:center
the Federation to what it was,
given your history.

00:42:23.607 --> 00:42:26.910 align:center
I'm told you yourself left
15 years ago?

00:42:26.911 --> 00:42:28.511 align:center
If Starfleet was willing

00:42:28.512 --> 00:42:31.481 align:center
to acknowledge a mistake
and correct it,

00:42:31.482 --> 00:42:33.516 align:center
then Starfleet is
a living thing,

00:42:33.517 --> 00:42:35.885 align:center
capable of growth and change.

00:42:35.886 --> 00:42:37.387 align:center
I believe in its future.

00:42:37.388 --> 00:42:40.490 align:center
As a Betazoid, I would hope
that you would sense

00:42:40.491 --> 00:42:43.127 align:center
our good intentions
and share that empathy.

00:42:47.798 --> 00:42:51.534 align:center
I see why the admiral
values you so highly.

00:42:51.535 --> 00:42:53.069 align:center
That said,
while empathy enables me

00:42:53.070 --> 00:42:55.238 align:center
to understand
and feel quite keenly

00:42:55.239 --> 00:42:57.273 align:center
your love for Starfleet...

00:43:01.211 --> 00:43:02.746 align:center
Excuse me.

00:43:03.547 --> 00:43:06.750 align:center
- See you later.
- Mm, mm, mm.

00:43:14.391 --> 00:43:16.559 align:center
Be right back.

00:43:16.560 --> 00:43:18.429 align:center
Hey, little sister.

00:43:21.765 --> 00:43:23.366 align:center
Off to see chaos boy?

00:43:23.367 --> 00:43:25.435 align:center
You think he's chaos boy?

00:43:25.436 --> 00:43:29.105 align:center
I think he's... surprise boy.
Surprise boy is good.

00:43:29.106 --> 00:43:30.740 align:center
He smiles a lot.

00:43:30.741 --> 00:43:32.743 align:center
Smiles a lot at you.

00:43:33.577 --> 00:43:35.211 align:center
He feels safe with you.

00:43:35.212 --> 00:43:38.181 align:center
Go get him. Go get him.

00:43:38.182 --> 00:43:39.282 align:center
Shut up.

00:43:39.283 --> 00:43:40.583 align:center
♪ Pa-pa-pa-pa-pa Papagena ♪

00:43:40.584 --> 00:43:43.420 align:center
♪ Pa-pa-pa-pa-pa Papageno. ♪

00:44:07.211 --> 00:44:09.112 align:center
Hmm?

00:44:09.113 --> 00:44:12.148 align:center
And how was the most
disciplined day of your life,

00:44:12.149 --> 00:44:13.716 align:center
touring the War College?

00:44:13.717 --> 00:44:16.619 align:center
I think my dad's actually
starting to warm to this place.

00:44:16.620 --> 00:44:18.921 align:center
There are upsides to discipline.

00:44:18.922 --> 00:44:21.290 align:center
Yeah, says the one
who had to scream.

00:44:25.062 --> 00:44:26.663 align:center
I'm sorry if I got you
in trouble.

00:44:26.664 --> 00:44:29.867 align:center
Sorry if I got you in trouble.

00:44:32.336 --> 00:44:33.971 align:center
Can I ask you a question?

00:44:34.838 --> 00:44:36.040 align:center
What is that?

00:44:36.840 --> 00:44:38.508 align:center
On your neck?

00:44:38.509 --> 00:44:40.010 align:center
Uh...

00:44:41.578 --> 00:44:43.414 align:center
It's a neuro-inhibitor.

00:44:44.214 --> 00:44:47.483 align:center
It cuts off any spike
of psilosynine.

00:44:47.484 --> 00:44:51.855 align:center
It's the chemical that gives us
our empathic abilities.

00:44:52.623 --> 00:44:55.659 align:center
You're the only one who has one?

00:44:59.363 --> 00:45:02.432 align:center
I feel things...

00:45:02.433 --> 00:45:04.200 align:center
more than other Betazoids.

00:45:04.201 --> 00:45:05.736 align:center
Hmm.

00:45:09.440 --> 00:45:11.508 align:center
Normal's boring anyway.

00:45:17.915 --> 00:45:21.117 align:center
If I lose control,
I can hurt people.

00:45:21.118 --> 00:45:22.820 align:center
Hmm.

00:45:25.622 --> 00:45:27.891 align:center
Doesn't scare me.

00:45:34.465 --> 00:45:35.899 align:center
Your turn.

00:45:44.341 --> 00:45:48.411 align:center
Why is it so hard
for you to just...

00:45:48.412 --> 00:45:51.115 align:center
be honest and direct?

00:45:57.421 --> 00:46:01.090 align:center
'Cause I spent a lot of time...

00:46:01.091 --> 00:46:02.726 align:center
just surviving.

00:46:05.529 --> 00:46:08.799 align:center
And now there are
all these rules.

00:46:10.701 --> 00:46:12.569 align:center
My whole life's been rules.

00:46:14.238 --> 00:46:16.106 align:center
Helps me feel safe.

00:46:17.508 --> 00:46:19.576 align:center
My mom made me feel that way.

00:46:22.045 --> 00:46:24.081 align:center
She got taken away.

00:46:26.416 --> 00:46:28.885 align:center
She's why I'm looking
for Goja V.

00:46:28.886 --> 00:46:30.086 align:center
She might be there,

00:46:30.087 --> 00:46:31.454 align:center
and I haven't seen her
since I was six,

00:46:31.455 --> 00:46:33.022 align:center
- so I really need...
- Uh, wait.

00:46:33.023 --> 00:46:34.458 align:center
Wait.

00:46:37.294 --> 00:46:40.229 align:center
That's why you care
about Betazed lowering its wall?

00:46:40.230 --> 00:46:41.764 align:center
What? No.

00:46:41.765 --> 00:46:44.367 align:center
Wh-- um, why didn't,
why didn't you just tell me?

00:46:44.368 --> 00:46:46.469 align:center
I mean,
I didn't keep anything from you.

00:46:46.470 --> 00:46:47.937 align:center
Because I didn't realize

00:46:47.938 --> 00:46:49.973 align:center
that my traumatic childhood was
part of the tour.

00:46:53.777 --> 00:46:56.279 align:center
At least I was honest
and up front.

00:46:56.280 --> 00:46:59.182 align:center
Were you just using me
this whole time?

00:46:59.183 --> 00:47:00.449 align:center
When we were together,

00:47:00.450 --> 00:47:03.252 align:center
I thought it was
because you liked me,

00:47:03.253 --> 00:47:05.721 align:center
- not because you were
trying to manipulate me.
- It was.

00:47:05.722 --> 00:47:07.123 align:center
It was 'cause I liked you.

00:47:07.124 --> 00:47:08.558 align:center
Why didn't you just tell me?

00:47:08.559 --> 00:47:11.795 align:center
Because I knew you
for five minutes.

00:47:13.397 --> 00:47:16.133 align:center
I've been searching for her
for 15 years.

00:47:16.900 --> 00:47:18.401 align:center
I slept in dumpsters.

00:47:18.402 --> 00:47:20.803 align:center
Almost froze and got the shit
kicked out of me

00:47:20.804 --> 00:47:22.705 align:center
more times than I can count.

00:47:22.706 --> 00:47:25.107 align:center
I'm sorry, I didn't know,
I didn't...

00:47:25.108 --> 00:47:26.610 align:center
No.

00:47:27.945 --> 00:47:29.612 align:center
You know what?

00:47:29.613 --> 00:47:32.148 align:center
Go back to your guards
and your valets

00:47:32.149 --> 00:47:34.116 align:center
and all the things
that keep you safe

00:47:34.117 --> 00:47:35.651 align:center
- in your safe little box.
- Okay.

00:47:35.652 --> 00:47:37.119 align:center
Thank you.

00:47:37.120 --> 00:47:39.022 align:center
You're welcome.

00:47:52.669 --> 00:47:54.170 align:center
Chancellor Ake,

00:47:54.171 --> 00:47:55.838 align:center
why did you leave Starfleet?

00:47:55.839 --> 00:47:59.508 align:center
Was the Federation no longer
up to your standards?

00:47:59.509 --> 00:48:02.478 align:center
The Federation allowed me
to question standards.

00:48:02.479 --> 00:48:04.814 align:center
Question or lower them?

00:48:04.815 --> 00:48:07.717 align:center
By allowing a criminal
into your academy.

00:48:07.718 --> 00:48:11.320 align:center
You're referring to Cadet Mir.
Oh, thank you so much.

00:48:11.321 --> 00:48:13.789 align:center
Those allegations were
never subject

00:48:13.790 --> 00:48:15.825 align:center
to judicial review
or due process

00:48:15.826 --> 00:48:18.027 align:center
and occurred outside
our jurisdiction,

00:48:18.028 --> 00:48:20.696 align:center
so he's not a criminal here.

00:48:20.697 --> 00:48:22.331 align:center
Yet.

00:48:22.332 --> 00:48:23.600 align:center
Hmm.

00:48:28.238 --> 00:48:30.039 align:center
Academy admission

00:48:30.040 --> 00:48:33.242 align:center
traditionally includes
a six-week preparatory program

00:48:33.243 --> 00:48:35.578 align:center
followed by
a rigorous entrance exam

00:48:35.579 --> 00:48:38.514 align:center
and intense
psychological scrutiny.

00:48:38.515 --> 00:48:41.551 align:center
Was Mir exempt from these?

00:48:43.253 --> 00:48:45.755 align:center
He passed the exam
in the 98th percentile

00:48:45.756 --> 00:48:47.356 align:center
while sitting
in the back of a shuttle.

00:48:47.357 --> 00:48:50.860 align:center
The traditional paths
to Starfleet disappeared

00:48:50.861 --> 00:48:52.395 align:center
for many of these kids, sir.

00:48:52.396 --> 00:48:55.164 align:center
The ones who got here
found their own way.

00:48:55.165 --> 00:48:56.899 align:center
I... I find that admirable.

00:48:56.900 --> 00:48:59.068 align:center
On Betazed, we maintain

00:48:59.069 --> 00:49:01.304 align:center
stringent boundaries
around our children.

00:49:01.305 --> 00:49:04.006 align:center
Why are you willing
to risk so much

00:49:04.007 --> 00:49:05.808 align:center
for a single cadet?

00:49:05.809 --> 00:49:07.576 align:center
Because he's exceptional.

00:49:07.577 --> 00:49:11.280 align:center
All the more so for living
an unprotected life.

00:49:11.281 --> 00:49:14.717 align:center
We won't exclude him for that.
I certainly won't.

00:49:14.718 --> 00:49:16.519 align:center
I lived in the Janaran Sanctuary

00:49:16.520 --> 00:49:19.488 align:center
and swam in the Opal Sea.

00:49:19.489 --> 00:49:21.691 align:center
Betazed was paradise.

00:49:21.692 --> 00:49:24.727 align:center
Some of the bravest,
kindest people I've ever met.

00:49:24.728 --> 00:49:26.329 align:center
It seems to me, sir,

00:49:26.330 --> 00:49:29.399 align:center
that you're allowing your walls
to define you now.

00:49:32.669 --> 00:49:34.270 align:center
It's one thing

00:49:34.271 --> 00:49:36.605 align:center
for you to tell me
who my ancestors were,

00:49:36.606 --> 00:49:39.442 align:center
another to demand we look past
all that has happened

00:49:39.443 --> 00:49:42.479 align:center
and expect us
not to have changed.

00:49:44.281 --> 00:49:50.920 align:center
We came here hoping for actions
but received only empty words.

00:49:50.921 --> 00:49:53.957 align:center
The negotiations are over.

00:49:54.758 --> 00:49:56.660 align:center
We will leave in the morning.

00:50:03.767 --> 00:50:05.301 align:center
Yeah.

00:50:05.302 --> 00:50:07.570 align:center
He came to say no.

00:50:29.059 --> 00:50:31.428 align:center
Yeah?

00:50:34.965 --> 00:50:36.800 align:center
Um... hi?

00:50:38.335 --> 00:50:39.802 align:center
It smells really bad in here.

00:50:39.803 --> 00:50:43.239 align:center
Yeah, Darem. Uh, suffers
from gland blockage.

00:50:43.240 --> 00:50:45.641 align:center
I see you still haven't
made your bed.

00:50:45.642 --> 00:50:47.944 align:center
Never had a bed before.

00:50:51.081 --> 00:50:52.549 align:center
You want me to apologize again?

00:50:53.350 --> 00:50:57.153 align:center
Caleb, I'd been searching
for you a long time.

00:50:57.154 --> 00:50:59.056 align:center
And then I found you.

00:51:01.358 --> 00:51:04.294 align:center
I really needed
that little kid to be okay.

00:51:07.564 --> 00:51:09.765 align:center
But you're not him anymore.

00:51:09.766 --> 00:51:11.501 align:center
And I have to let him go.

00:51:12.269 --> 00:51:16.238 align:center
If you leave
and the Torothans find you,

00:51:16.239 --> 00:51:17.940 align:center
because you stole from them,

00:51:17.941 --> 00:51:19.508 align:center
I can't help.

00:51:19.509 --> 00:51:21.210 align:center
So...

00:51:21.211 --> 00:51:23.179 align:center
I won't wall you in.

00:51:23.180 --> 00:51:25.148 align:center
But if you stay...

00:51:26.750 --> 00:51:30.553 align:center
...maybe we could build
something...

00:51:30.554 --> 00:51:31.988 align:center
different.

00:51:32.923 --> 00:51:34.691 align:center
But I don't know what.

00:51:37.861 --> 00:51:39.228 align:center
You know,

00:51:39.229 --> 00:51:43.299 align:center
when your mom was
at the rehabilitation camp,

00:51:43.300 --> 00:51:46.103 align:center
she spent all her time
studying physics.

00:51:48.071 --> 00:51:50.540 align:center
They say she had
a remarkable mind.

00:51:51.608 --> 00:51:53.977 align:center
Guess you come by it honestly.

00:51:58.081 --> 00:52:02.284 align:center
Imagine if she'd gone to school.

00:52:05.789 --> 00:52:07.357 align:center
Anyway.

00:52:10.393 --> 00:52:12.028 align:center
You know, in physics...

00:52:13.430 --> 00:52:15.999 align:center
...there's always something
you can build.

00:52:19.002 --> 00:52:20.269 align:center
Oh.

00:52:20.270 --> 00:52:21.837 align:center
You're a genius.

00:52:21.838 --> 00:52:23.305 align:center
Attention, cadets,

00:52:23.306 --> 00:52:24.673 align:center
the Betazoid delegation

00:52:24.674 --> 00:52:26.408 align:center
is preparing for
immediate departure.

00:52:26.409 --> 00:52:28.777 align:center
- To accommodate, we will...
- Excuse me!

00:52:28.778 --> 00:52:30.613 align:center
Coming through!
Behind!

00:52:30.614 --> 00:52:32.515 align:center
- Tarima!
- Caleb?

00:52:32.516 --> 00:52:34.151 align:center
Can I talk to you for a minute?

00:52:42.492 --> 00:52:43.894 align:center
Quickly.

00:52:46.463 --> 00:52:47.930 align:center
I'm sorry.

00:52:47.931 --> 00:52:50.300 align:center
I'm so sorry.

00:52:52.035 --> 00:52:54.837 align:center
The Federation...

00:52:54.838 --> 00:52:57.107 align:center
they're the villain
of my story, too.

00:53:00.944 --> 00:53:02.545 align:center
They took my mom.

00:53:02.546 --> 00:53:04.980 align:center
I should've told you,
'cause then we could've had

00:53:04.981 --> 00:53:07.216 align:center
a real conversation,
and instead,

00:53:07.217 --> 00:53:09.852 align:center
I got scared you'd tell
your dad to walk,

00:53:09.853 --> 00:53:12.822 align:center
and I'd never get to find her
behind your wall.

00:53:17.127 --> 00:53:19.128 align:center
We could've bonded

00:53:19.129 --> 00:53:21.865 align:center
over our mutual terror
of trusting people.

00:53:23.767 --> 00:53:25.569 align:center
I screwed it up.

00:53:30.106 --> 00:53:32.074 align:center
What do you want, Caleb?

00:53:32.075 --> 00:53:34.343 align:center
Forget about what I want.

00:53:34.344 --> 00:53:36.279 align:center
I saw you with that whale.

00:53:37.447 --> 00:53:39.682 align:center
You want a bigger world.

00:53:39.683 --> 00:53:41.217 align:center
You looked around this place,

00:53:41.218 --> 00:53:43.319 align:center
and everything
that you were seeing

00:53:43.320 --> 00:53:46.089 align:center
and hearing was beautiful, right?

00:53:49.993 --> 00:53:52.361 align:center
So please,

00:53:52.362 --> 00:53:55.665 align:center
get your dad to go back
to the table one more time.

00:53:56.566 --> 00:53:58.801 align:center
At least then you can go home

00:53:58.802 --> 00:54:01.271 align:center
knowing you gave your people
every last chance.

00:54:06.776 --> 00:54:10.880 align:center
If you won't do it for you,
for the love of God...

00:54:12.215 --> 00:54:14.384 align:center
...do it for Turner.

00:54:22.993 --> 00:54:24.727 align:center
Last night, Mr. President,

00:54:24.728 --> 00:54:28.397 align:center
we discussed tradition, and I...

00:54:28.398 --> 00:54:31.367 align:center
fancied myself
a bit of a renegade.

00:54:31.368 --> 00:54:33.102 align:center
Which is not as true
as I would like.

00:54:33.103 --> 00:54:36.171 align:center
I'm more of a traditionalist
than I was willing to admit.

00:54:36.172 --> 00:54:40.209 align:center
And it blinded me
from seeing what can be.

00:54:40.210 --> 00:54:43.579 align:center
What if by reexamining the past,

00:54:43.580 --> 00:54:46.683 align:center
we become something
entirely new?

00:54:47.684 --> 00:54:49.485 align:center
Should Betazed rejoin,

00:54:49.486 --> 00:54:51.920 align:center
the Federation will build
its new seat of government

00:54:51.921 --> 00:54:54.224 align:center
not in Paris,
where it once stood...

00:54:55.225 --> 00:54:57.127 align:center
...but on Betazed.

00:54:59.462 --> 00:55:03.833 align:center
You suggested that actions speak
louder than words.

00:55:04.634 --> 00:55:07.736 align:center
Should Betazed lower her walls,
we will be there,

00:55:07.737 --> 00:55:09.838 align:center
with equal investment
in building

00:55:09.839 --> 00:55:14.010 align:center
and protecting a future
we both desperately need.

00:56:01.558 --> 00:56:02.791 align:center
Yes.

00:56:21.845 --> 00:56:25.914 align:center
Starfleet intelligence reached
Goja V an hour ago.

00:56:25.915 --> 00:56:29.218 align:center
It's a place where people might
want to disappear.

00:56:29.219 --> 00:56:30.819 align:center
No central authority.

00:56:30.820 --> 00:56:32.755 align:center
Gangs, mostly.
It's pretty rough.

00:56:32.756 --> 00:56:36.825 align:center
But we found an encrypted
flight manifest

00:56:36.826 --> 00:56:38.360 align:center
with your mom's name on it.

00:56:38.361 --> 00:56:41.430 align:center
Headed to the Romov Sector,
three months ago.

00:56:42.999 --> 00:56:45.401 align:center
Anisha made it off Goja V.

00:56:45.402 --> 00:56:47.871 align:center
She's out there somewhere.

00:56:48.671 --> 00:56:49.938 align:center
I've given you access

00:56:49.939 --> 00:56:52.374 align:center
to all the comms channels
I can access.

00:56:52.375 --> 00:56:56.613 align:center
If she's sending messages,
it'll be on there somewhere.

00:56:57.680 --> 00:57:01.417 align:center
So this is a guilt Band-Aid?

00:57:01.418 --> 00:57:03.486 align:center
Does it matter?

00:57:05.555 --> 00:57:07.791 align:center
Dismissed.

00:57:18.201 --> 00:57:19.436 align:center
Hey, kid.

00:57:38.788 --> 00:57:41.323 align:center
Well, it's been
another great day

00:57:41.324 --> 00:57:42.958 align:center
at Starfleet Academy.

00:57:42.959 --> 00:57:44.293 align:center
Reminder to all cadets

00:57:44.294 --> 00:57:46.629 align:center
that curfew is at 2200 hours.

00:57:47.430 --> 00:57:50.633 align:center
If you're planning
on breaking that, do not.

00:57:51.468 --> 00:57:55.305 align:center
Sleep well. And see you
tomorrow, fellow travelers.

00:57:57.340 --> 00:57:58.841 align:center
Push! Huzzah!

00:57:58.842 --> 00:58:00.409 align:center
I go here now, roomie!

00:58:00.410 --> 00:58:03.011 align:center
- Huzzah! Come on!
- Whoo!

00:58:03.012 --> 00:58:04.913 align:center
I'm your third, baby!

00:58:04.914 --> 00:58:07.649 align:center
We're roommates, bro.
Starfleet for life!

00:58:07.650 --> 00:58:08.984 align:center
My dad let me stay.

00:58:08.985 --> 00:58:10.819 align:center
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

00:58:10.820 --> 00:58:12.120 align:center
Is Tarima here, too?

00:58:12.121 --> 00:58:14.190 align:center
Nah. She chose
the War College, bruh.

00:58:15.091 --> 00:58:16.458 align:center
What? Why?

00:58:16.459 --> 00:58:18.360 align:center
I don't talk to dudes
about my sister, man.

00:58:18.361 --> 00:58:20.897 align:center
Creepy. She asked me
to give you this, actually.

00:58:21.798 --> 00:58:22.798 align:center
Caleb.

00:58:22.799 --> 00:58:25.901 align:center
Cay, Cale, Cal? Beeble?

00:58:25.902 --> 00:58:27.503 align:center
- Stop. Stop.
- Beeble!

00:58:27.504 --> 00:58:29.037 align:center
- I love you, bro,
I was just playing.
- Don't touch me.

00:58:29.038 --> 00:58:31.273 align:center
Okay, we'll get there.

00:58:31.274 --> 00:58:32.941 align:center
Straight back in, come on.

00:58:32.942 --> 00:58:35.210 align:center
Yeah. You know what?
That trophy's pretty tight.

00:58:35.211 --> 00:58:37.346 align:center
Fought a guy with three
legs for that back on Khionia.

00:58:37.347 --> 00:58:38.680 align:center
Did he have any hands?

00:58:38.681 --> 00:58:39.982 align:center
Yeah, he did have hands.

00:58:39.983 --> 00:58:41.483 align:center
- Two big meaty hands.
- Oof!

00:58:41.484 --> 00:58:42.684 align:center
That's what I'm talking about.

00:58:42.685 --> 00:58:44.152 align:center
All right.
I think I'm gonna take

00:58:44.153 --> 00:58:46.188 align:center
more of a minimalist approach
to my space.

00:58:46.189 --> 00:58:48.156 align:center
Yeah, is that some kind of hack
for better focus?

00:58:48.157 --> 00:58:49.892 align:center
No, it's more that everything
I touch, I break.

00:58:49.893 --> 00:58:51.360 align:center
Just obliterate.

00:58:51.361 --> 00:58:52.995 align:center
What about that one?

00:58:52.996 --> 00:58:54.496 align:center
My bad.

00:58:54.497 --> 00:58:56.565 align:center
It was my grandmother's--
was very rare-- but it's okay.

00:58:56.566 --> 00:58:59.134 align:center
It's kind of wild that you got
to see what I'm talking about

00:58:59.135 --> 00:59:00.369 align:center
in real time.
It happened, like...

00:59:00.370 --> 00:59:01.803 align:center
It's okay.

00:59:01.804 --> 00:59:04.640 align:center
You know, man,
all my trophies are mental.

00:59:04.641 --> 00:59:05.874 align:center
You know, I award them
to myself.

00:59:05.875 --> 00:59:07.309 align:center
Like, "Good job, Ocam,

00:59:07.310 --> 00:59:09.211 align:center
you got the wake-up-on-time
award today."

00:59:09.212 --> 00:59:12.414 align:center
Or, "Congrats, Ocam,
you ate a nutritious meal."

00:59:12.415 --> 00:59:14.383 align:center
- What are you doing?
- What are you doing?

00:59:14.384 --> 00:59:17.152 align:center
Tuck and fold. Okay?
Tuck and fold. Underneath.

00:59:17.153 --> 00:59:18.387 align:center
It's self-love.

00:59:18.388 --> 00:59:20.355 align:center
It's my version
of, like, self-love.

00:59:20.356 --> 00:59:22.224 align:center
Here.

00:59:22.225 --> 00:59:23.759 align:center
Tuck, fold.

00:59:23.760 --> 00:59:26.361 align:center
- Bros making bros' beds.
- You want that line straight.

00:59:26.362 --> 00:59:27.529 align:center
Love to see it!

00:59:27.530 --> 00:59:28.765 align:center
Let's make a fort, guys!
