and activate the tractor beam.

To get us inside

and re-raise the shields will take. . .

Exactly 15.5 seconds.

An eternity, during which we'll be

vulnerable to Klingon attack.

-Korrd, you tell him.

-He speaks the truth.

lf my people are cloaked,

then they intend to strike.

We cannot turn back.

-You must allow us to act.

-Let me do something.

Very well. Do what you must.

But no more.

Enterprise. This is Kirk.

Kirk.

He's on the shuttlecraft!

Alter the attack course!

Understand your situation.

Are unable to return to planet.

Stand by to execute

Emergency Landing Plan B.

-What's Emergency Landing Plan B?

-l don't have a clue.

-B, as in "barricade."

-He can't be serious.

What are you doing?

ln order to lower and raise the shields

as quickly as possible,

we're going to forego the tractor beam

and fly her in manually.

-Manually?

-How often have you done this?

Actually, it's my first attempt.

He's good.

Really.

Scotty, on my mark, open bay doors.

Stand by to de-cloak for firing.

Kirk to Scotty. Lower shields.

Lowering shields, sir.

Bird-of-prey bearing 1 -0-5 mark 2.

Go, Sulu !

They're in !

Bear on Enterprise.

Enterprise targeted !

Warp speed now.

Firing !

Track her course!

He's good.

We must change course at once.

l'll take you to the Bridge.

Pick it up.

Sybok.

You must surrender.

No.

-You must kill me.

-Shoot him !

For a moment,

l thought you might actually do it.

Put him in the brig with Captain Kirk.

Spock.

You will accompany me to the Bridge?

No.

l will not.

You know l'm right.

Then you must join them.

Move. Move!

-These two will be useful.

-Give us a moment alone.

Don't be afraid.

-Damn it, Spock. God damn it!

-Captain, what I have done. . .

What you have done

is betray every man on this ship.

Worse. I have betrayed you.

l do not expect you to forgive me.

Forgive you? I ought to knock you

on your goddamn ass.

lf you think it would help.

-You want me to hold him, Jim?

-You stay out of this.

Why, Spock? Why?

All you had to do was pull the trigger.

lf I had pulled the trigger,

Sybok would be dead.

-l ordered you to defend your ship.

-You ordered me to kill my brother.

Look, the man may be a fellow Vulcan,

but that doesn't. . .

No, no, no, Captain.

You do not understand.

Sybok also is a son of Sarek.

You mean he's your "brother" brother?

-You made that up.

-l did not.

You did, too.

Sybok couldn't possibly be your brother

because I happen to know for a fact

you don't have a brother.

Technically you are correct.

l do not have a brother.

-There, you see? See?

-l have a half-brother.

l gotta sit down.

Let me get this straight.

You and Sybok have the same father

but different mothers.

Exactly. That is correct.

Sybok's mother was a Vulcan princess.

Upon her death,

Sybok and I were raised as brothers.

Why didn't you tell us this before?

l was not disposed to discuss matters

of a personal nature.

For that, I am sorry.

He's sorry. See? He's sorry.

That makes everything all right.

-He's sorry. Everything. . .

-Stop it, Jim !

Spock could no more kill

his own brother than he could kill you.

lf you want to punish him

for what he's done,

why don't you throw him in the brig?

Besides, we've got

bigger problems to deal with.

Like how the hell to get out of here.

l'll say one thing, Spock.

-You never cease to amaze me.

-Nor I myself.

l was beginning to worry.

Where is the captain?

lt's all right, Pavel.

Sybok will explain everything.

-Sulu, what are you doing?

-Plotting our new course.

New course? You have no authority.

What's going on here?

-Pavel. . .

-l won't force you.

-. . .you've got to listen to this man.

-The decision must be yours.

-l don't understand.

-Each of us hides a secret pain.

Share yours with me

and gain strength from the sharing.

Useless.

Unwise.

-You could've warned me.

-He did, Jim.

There's got to be a way

out of this place.

This is a new brig, Captain.

lt is escape-proof.

-How do you know?

-The designers tested it

using the most intelligent

and resourceful person they could find.

He failed to escape.

This person didn't by any chance

have pointed ears

and an unerring capacity for getting

his shipmates into trouble, did he?

He did have pointed ears.

Following new course. Warp 7.

Estimating destination in 6.7 hours,

present speed.

Now that we're under way,

it's time I announced my intentions

to the rest of the ship.

Brave crew of the Starship Enterprise,

consider the questions of existence.

These are the questions

which man has asked

ever since he first gazed at the stars

and dreamed.

My VuIcan ancestors were ruIed

by their emotions.

They feIt with their hearts.

They made Iove with their hearts.

They beIieved with their hearts.

But above all else,

they believed in a place

in which these questions of existence

would be answered.

Modern dogma tells us

this place is a myth,

a fantasy concocted by pagans.

It is no fantasy, I teII you.

I teII you

it exists.

My brothers, we have been chosen

to undertake

the greatest adventure of all time.

The discovery of Sha'Ka'Ree.

-ls it possible?

-ls what possible?

That he's found Sha'Ka'Ree.

The reason Sybok left Vulcan.

Our destination

is the planet Sha'Ka'Ree,

which lies beyond the Great Barrier

at the centre of the gaIaxy.

-The centre of the galaxy?

-Where Sha'Ka'Ree is fabled to exist.

But the centre of the galaxy

can't be reached.

No ship has ever gone

into the Great Barrier.

No probe has ever returned.

Sybok possessed the keenest intellect

l have ever known.

Spock, my only concern

is getting the ship back.

When that's done and Sybok is in here,

then you can debate Sha'Ka'Ree

until you're green in the face.

Until then, you're either with me

or you're not.

-l am here, Captain.

-That's a little vague, Spock.

What's that noise?

l believe it is a primitive form

of communication

-known as Morse code.

-You're right.

l'm a little out of practise. That's an "S."

-"T."

-"A," "N," "D," end of word.

-"Stand."

-New word. "B," "A". . .

"C," "K."

"Back." "Stand back."

-Stand back?

-Stand back?

What are you standing around for?

Do you not know a jail break

when you see one?

The bond between these three

is strong, difficult to penetrate.

This will be quite a challenge.

We've got to find them.

-Captain, we can't trust anyone now.

-lf we could send a distress signal. . .

There is an emergency

sending apparatus

in the forward observation room.

The only trouble is, it's up there.

We're down here.

You might be able to reach it by means

of turbo shaft number three,

which is closed for repairs.

lt's a long and dangerous climb.

Some of us get off

on long and dangerous climbs.

Mr Scott, get the transporter working.

lf we can contact a rescue ship,

we'll need it.

Which way to the turbo shaft?

Head down that tunnel to the hydro vent

and turn right.

Then left at the blowscreen.

You can't miss it.
