(BOTH PANTING)

- Scotty, we got to jump!

- What?

Jump! Jump!

- Oh, God.

- (BOTH GRUNTING)

Emergency power at 15% and dropping.

AUTOMATED FEMALE VOICE:

Attention, all decks.

Evacuation protocols initiated.

Proceed to exit bays

and report to your assigned shuttle.

(BOTH YELLING)

(STRAINING AND GRUNTING)

(SCREAMING)

- Jim?

- Hold on!

I can't.

(STRAINING)

(GRUNTING)

(GASPING)

- (GRUNTING)

- (LAUGHS)

I've got you, Captain!

- Chekov.

- Don't let go!

(STRAINING)

Even if we get the warp core online,

we've still got to redirect the power!

- He's right, Captain!

- What are you talking about?

Someone has to hit

the manual override.

Laddie, there's a switch...

Behind the deflector dish!

I'll flip the switch!

Let's go!

(GRUNTING)

Oh, no.

(WHIMPERING)

Oy-yoy! Oy-yoy! Oy-yoy-yoy!

(SCREAMING)

Evacuation protocols initiated.

Proceed to exit bays

and report to your assigned shuttle.

(ALL SCREAMING)

Mr. Sulu, divert

any remaining power to stabilizers.

Doing what I can, sir. Doing what I can.

(PANTING)

(GRUNTING)

(BEEPING)

(STRAINING)

(POWERING UP)

AUTOMATED FEMALE VOICE:

Core misaligned. Danger.

- Oh, no, no, no, no!

- What?

The housings are misaligned!

There's no way

we can redirect the power!

The ship's dead, sir. She's gone.

- No, she's not.

- Wait, Jim!

If we go in there, we'll die!

Do you hear me?

The radiation will kill us!

Will you listen to me?

What the hell are you doing?

I'm opening the door. I'm going in.

That door is there to stop us

from getting irradiated!

We'd be dead

before we made the climb!

You're not making the climb.

(GRUNTS)

AUTOMATED FEMALE VOICE:

Danger. Core misaligned.

Danger. Core misaligned.

(GRUNTING)

(ELECTRICITY CRACKLING)

If we don't get power

or shields back online,

we're gonna be incinerated on re-entry!

(GRUNTS)

(GRUNTS)

(YELLS)

(SCREAMS)

Warp core is back online!

SPOCK:
Maximum thrusters, Mr. Sulu!

Thrusters at maximum!

Stand by! Stand by!

(ENGINES ENGAGING)

(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

- Shields restored!

- Commander, power online.

Mr. Spock, altitude stabilizing.

It's a miracle.

There are no such things.

(COMMUNICATOR BEEPING)

SCOTTY:
Engineering to bridge.

- Mr. Spock!

- Mr. Scott.

Sir, you'd better get down here.

Better hurry.

Open it.

The decontamination process

is not complete.

You'd flood the whole compartment.

The door's locked, sir.

(GROANING)

(GROANS)

(BREATHING HEAVILY)

(MECHANISM WHIRRING)

How's our ship?

Out of danger.

You saved the crew.

You used what he wanted against him.

That's a nice move.

It is what you would have done.

And this,

this is what you would have done.

It was only logical.

I'm scared, Spock.

Help me not be.

How do you choose not to feel?

I do not know.

Right now I am failing.

I want you to know

why I couldn't let you die.

Why I went back for you.

Because you are my friend.

(COUGHS)

(YELLING) Khan!

God, that was close!

Set destination, Starfleet Headquarters!

AUTOMATED MALE VOICE:

Engines compromised.

Cannot guarantee destination.

Confirm order.

Confirm.

(RUMBLING)

(CONCERNED MURMURING)

(CROWD EXCLAIMING IN SHOCK)

(CLAMORING)

(ALL SCREAMING)

Search the enemy ship for signs of life.

Sir, there's no way anyone survived.

He could.

Yes, sir.

(SIRENS WAILING)

(GRUNTS)

(ALARMS BLARING)

(GRUNTS)

Whoa! He just jumped 30 meters!

Can we beam him up?

CHEKOV:
There's too much damage.

I have no incoming signal.

But it may be possible

to beam you down, sir.

Go get him.

- Stand by for coordinates.

- Yes, sir.

Enter 3517 by 2598.

Coordinates confirmed.

(PEOPLE CLAMORING)

(SIGHS)

(TRIBBLE CHITTERING SOFTLY)

(EQUIPMENT BEEPING)

Get me a cryo tube, now!

(GRUNTING)

(YELLING IN PAIN)

(INJECTION WHIRS)

Get this guy out of the cryo tube.

Keep him in an induced coma.

We're gonna put Kirk inside.

It's our only chance to

preserve his brain function.

How much of Khan's blood is left?

None.

Enterprise to Spock. Spock!

(GRUNTS)

(STRAINING)

Activate the cryogenic sequence.

- (BEEPING)

- (HISSING)

McCoy to bridge.

I can't reach Spock. I need Khan alive.

You get that son of a b*tch

back on board right now!

I think he can save Kirk.

Can we beam them up to the ship?

They keep moving! I can't

get a lock on either of them.

Can you beam someone down?

(BOTH STRAINING)

(YELLING)

- (SCREAMS)

- Spock!

Spock!

Spock, stop! Stop!

He's our only chance to save Kirk!

GEORGE:
What is it?

WINONA:
it's a boy.

GEORGE:
Let's call him Jim.

PIKE:
Your father was

captain of a starship for 12 minutes.

He saved 800 lives.

I dare you to do better.

(GASPS)

Don't be so melodramatic.

You were barely dead.

It was the transfusion

that really took its toll.

You were out cold for two weeks.

Transfusion?

Your cells were heavily irradiated.

We had no choice.

Khan?

Once we caught him,

I synthesized a serum

from his superblood.

Tell me, are you feeling homicidal?

Power mad? Despotic?

No more than usual.

How'd you catch him?

I didn't.

You saved my life.

Uhura and I had

something to do with it, too, you know.

You saved my life, Captain.

And the lives...

Spock, just...

Thank you.

You are welcome, Jim.

KIRK:
There will always be

those who mean to do us harm.

To stop them,

we risk awakening

the same evil within ourselves.

Our first instinct is to seek revenge

when those we love are taken from us.

But that's not who we are.

We are here today

to rechristen the U.S.S. Enterprise,

and to honor those who lost their lives

nearly one year ago.

When Christopher Pike

first gave me his ship

he had me recite the Captain's Oath,

words I didn't appreciate at the time.

Now I see them as a call

for us to remember

who we once were,

and who we must be again.

And those words?

Space, the final frontier.

These are the voyages

of the starship Enterprise.

Her five-year mission,

to explore strange new worlds,

to seek out new life

and new civilizations,

to boldly go

where no one has gone before.

CHEKOV:
Captain on the bridge.

It's hard to get out of it

once you've had a taste,

isn't that right, Mr. Sulu?

"Captain" does have a nice ring to it.

Chair's all yours, sir.

Mr. Scott.

How's our core?

Purring like a kitten, Captain.

She's ready for a long journey.

Excellent.

Come on, Bones! It's gonna be fun.

Five years in space. God help me.

Dr. Marcus.

I'm glad you could be

a part of the family.

It's nice to have a family.

KIRK:
Spock.

Captain.

Where shall we go?

As a mission of this duration

has never been attempted,

I defer to your good judgment, Captain.

Mr. Sulu, take us out.

Aye, Captain.
