captain they're back
amazing I never thought I'd see a
Romulan vessel not this close the last
time we encountered him was decades ago
cost thousands of lives I can't
believe that stay calm everyone open
hailing frequencies captain
these are Romulans they are without
honor
they killed my parents in an attack on
kin amar when they were supposed to be
our allies they behaved humans and
Klingons are a waste of skin
Lt control your emotions please
open hailing frequencies
hailing frequencies open Romulan vessel
this is Captain jean-luc Picard of the
USS Enterprise
sensors indicate all their systems are
armed sir that they have not fired I am
Commander Tebah commander you across the
neutral zone
this is Federation territory it was
necessary it might be viewed as an act
of aggression our intent were aggression
you would not be here now if we go to
war let us be shores for the right
reason we are here because our outposts
which border on the neutral zone were
also attacked destroyed in the exact
same manner as your own even so what
gives them the right to enter Federation
space silence your dog captain
Lieutenant Worf question is valid do we
even ask such a question implies that we
need permission we do not do you think
that we attacked your outposts once we
realize the level of destruction
we knew it could not have been you
or is responsible
we haven't got a clue they're hoping you
know but they're too an arrogant to ask
you're out of line mister yes but it's a
correct assessment we do not know who is
responsible why entire outposts on both
sides have been carried off I would like
to offer a proposal an alliance between
the Romulans and the Federation nothing
so grandiose just this cooperation there
was an intent here whoever or whatever
did this is more powerful than either of
us let's collaborate let's share
whatever we learn about what has
happened here agreed on this one issue
and only if it is convenient and
appropriate at the time Captain Picard
because your actions are those of a
thoughtful man I'll tell you this
matters more urgent caused our absence
now witness the result outposts
destroyed expansion of the Federation
everywhere yes we have indeed the
negligent captain but no more karana we
have made some progress here let's not
ruin it with unnecessary posturing your
presence is not wanted do you understand
my meaning captain
we
I'm back
I think our lives just became a lot more
complicated
