PICARD:
Captain's log, stardate 43489.2.
We have arrived at Angosia III,
a planet that has expressed
a strong desire
for membership in the Federation.
Prime Minister Nayrok
has taken Commander Riker and me
on a tour of the capital city.
[ALL CHATTERING]
I'm greatly impressed with everything
I've seen so far, prime minister.
Then I hope it will reflect favorably
in your report, captain.
It's a tribute to your people
that you were able to recover
- so rapidly from the Tarsian War.
NAYROK: It is indeed.
We are not warriors.
We believe reason
should settle disputes.
But not every culture agrees
with our position.
An unfortunate reality.
The development of the mind,
the cultivation of the intellect,
these are the pursuits
to which the Angosians
have dedicated
themselves for centuries.
MAN:
Prime minister.
I'm sorry to interrupt,
but we have a problem.
May I see you for a moment?
Excuse me, gentlemen.
Yes, what is it?
Well, I think they'll make a fine addition
to the Federation, Number One.
I'm not sure
I'd like to live in this place.
A little stuffy for my taste.
A prisoner has escaped
from the penal colony on Lunar V.
Two guards are dead.
The prisoner has taken
a transport vessel.
Do you have means of pursuit?
The tracking station was sabotaged.
The entire base is in chaos.
We've ordered ships
from the surface to follow him,
but to be honest, our civilian pilots
are not trained for this.
With your permission?
Mr. Data, a stolen transport vessel
has departed from Lunar V.
[OVER COM]
Have you picked it up on the sensors?
- Yes, commander.
RIKER: Good.
Detain the vessel
and quarantine the pilot. Is he armed?
Yes, and extremely dangerous,
commander.
Lunar V is
a maximum-security facility.
- Did you read that?
DATA [OVER COM]: Yes, sir.
We will use extreme caution.
RIKER:
Keep us informed. Riker out.
On-screen, sir.
DATA: Specifications on the vessel,
Mr. Worf.
WORF:
No warp drive.
- Minimal weaponry.
- Heading, Mr. Crusher.
Three-one-nine, mark 250, sir.
Vessel speed increasing
to 0.02 impulse.
He's seen us, Data.
That's the ship's drive section.
What happened
to the rest of his ship?
Scan the drive section
for life-form readings.
None.
Bring us around to the backside
of the asteroid, Mr. Crusher.
Sensors indicate wreckage
on the asteroid's surface, Data.
No life signs.
- Apparently, he did not survive.
- Data, the drive section.
Where'd it go?
There's no sign of it
on its previous heading.
Someone must be at the helm.
RIKER:
Status report, Mr. Data.
I am afraid the prisoner
has eluded us, sir.
PICARD:
Space, the final frontier.
These are the voyages
of the starship Enterprise.
Its continuing mission:
to explore strange, new worlds,
to seek out new life
and new civilizations,
to boldly go where no one
has gone before.
We followed procedures precisely,
captain.
Scanners indicated no life-forms
present in the drive section.
I cannot explain how he escaped.
[BEEP5]
Incoming message
from the Angosian prime minister.
On-screen.
Captain,
we've identified the prisoner.
His name is Roga Danar.
His criminal record
is too long to go into,
but I must caution you that he is given
to bouts of uncontrollable violence.
I appreciate your warning,
prime minister.
We will keep you informed
of our progress.
Geordi, how far and how fast
can that transport ship travel?
Without warp drive, there's no way
he could be out of our range by now.
We've been sweeping
the area constantly.
There's nothing within sensor range.
Cloaking device?
Sir, the Angosians
have no cloaking technology.
- Unless he's borrowing one.
-Hmm?
If he's hanging
over the planet's pole,
the magnetic field
would confuse our sensors.
Commander, I believe I can recalibrate
our sensors
to read through the electromagnetic
interference over the poles.
RIKER:
Let's try it, Mr. Crusher.
Realign for polar orbit.
Aye, sir.
DATA: There he is, commander.
You were correct.
This guy knows all the tricks,
doesn't he?
Still no life-form readings
coming from the vessel.
Could it be the magnetic interference,
Data?
I have compensated.
Still no reading.
We'll have an answer shortly.
Look on a tractor beam, Mr. La Forge.
Tractor beam looking on, sir.
- He is coming about, sir.
- He's out of his mind.
Sensors detect a massive
power build-up in his aft thrusters.
On main viewer.
He's making a suicide run.
Shields have been
automatically activated.
Tractor beam disengaged.
He bounced off the shields.
That's an interesting twist.
Mr. Crusher, fix coordinates
onto that vessel.
We'll just beam the whole thing
into our shuttle bay if we have to.
I do not believe
that will be necessary, captain.
He is no longer in the drive section.
What?
I anticipated that diversionary tactic
based on his pattern to date.
[CONSOLE BEEPING]
We are picking up
a cylindrical object
approximately 7 meters in length
and 3 meters in diameter.
WORF:
On-screen.
PICARD:
Magnify.
An escape pod.
This guy's incredible.
Yet there are still
no life-form readings.
Transporter Room 4,
prepare to beam aboard from inside
that shuttle anything large enough
to be a humanoid adult.
O'BRIEN [OVER COM]:
Aye, sir.
Security team,
report to Transporter Room 4.
MAN [OVER COM]:
On our way, sir.
We're holding the contents in stasis
pending the arrival of security.
[BEEP5]
An illicit weapon has been detected
in the transporter beam, sir.
It's been rendered inoperable.
Worf, let's greet our guest.
GUARD:
Bring him in, Mr. O'Brien.
Just stay where you are.
[GRUNTS]
More security, Transporter Room 4.
More security. More security.
[ALL GRUNTING]
[GUARD YELLING]
[DANAR GROANS]
[GROANS]
[BOTH GRUNTING]
Get him to a detention cell.
Set phasers on maximum stun.
O'BRIEN:
Commander.
We'll need a few hours
to get the containment field
on Lunar V operational
before we pick him up.
The damage he did during his escape
was considerable.
We will await your signal.
NAYROK [ON-SCREEN]:
I appreciate your patience.
The prison psychologist
recommends
that you keep Danar fully sedated
until he's ready for transport.
Hmm.
Well, he's in our highest-security
detention area.
There shouldn't be
any more problems.
Do not relax your security
for an instant, captain.
He is extremely violent and
very cunning, as you already know.
I will send a transport vessel
to pick him up as soon as possible.
Na yrok out.
Have you run a diagnostic
on the sensors, Data?
Yes, sir. There is nothing wrong
with the ship's sensors.
The reason we did not pick up
life signs aboard the escape vessel
is because the prisoner
has no life signs.
Computer, identify the occupant
of the detention cell.
COMPUTER: The detention cell
is vacant at this time.
He's in there.
Could he be some kind of android?
Our sensors can identify
artificial life-forms, sir.
Apparently, he is capable
of deceiving the sensors.
[GRUNTS]
[DANAR GRUNTING]
Are you all right?
What is this ship?
You're onboard the USS Enterprise.
A war vessel?
A Federation starship.
Federation.
We were orbiting Angosia
when you escaped from Lunar V.
ISIGHS]
Well, it seems that I'm a victim
of my own bad timing.
Are you the keeper of this jail?
I'm Deanna Troi, ship's counselor.
Counselor? Too bad.
I'd rather you were the jailer
to keep me company
during my return trip.
I assume we are returning
to Lunar V.
That terrifies you.
Ijust killed three men
to get out of there, counselor.
And I'm fully capable
of killing you as well.
That's a terrifying thought, isn't it?
Even to me.
Do they mistreat you there?
Heh, not at all.
I am comfortable,
well fed and housed.
No, no, the Angosians take good care
of their prisoners.
It's simply a matter
of never being able to leave.
What about you, counselor?
Do you always visit the prisoners?
Are you a specialist
in criminal behavior?
Or am Ijust an interesting specimen
who landed on the ship like an insect
to be studied
under your microscope?
Why do you have all this anger
toward me?
A girl with long, dark hair
broke my heart a long time ago.
Out of bitterness and resentment,
I turned to crime.
[CHUCKLING]
How about this one?
My mother abandoned me
when I was a little boy.
I never got the guidance
that a wild young man needed.
Why are you doing this?
Playing games?
Isn't that what you do, counselor?
Isn't that what all
of you mind-control experts do?
I am not a mind—contro| expert.
I came here
because I sensed you were in pain.
And what do you sense now?
The pain is gone.
It's interesting, isn't it?
TROI:
There's a duality about the man.
It's hard to describe.
He's aware of his crimes.
In fact, they trouble him deeply.
- CounseIor--
- He's intelligent,
thoughtful, typically Angosian.
I know what he's done,
but when I'm with him,
I cannot believe
that he is randomly
and deliberately violent.
In fact, inherently,
he has a nonviolent personality.
Counselor,
it took five men to restrain him.
And he took apart half
the transporter room in the process.
I'm not opening the door for him,
captain.
I can only tell you that I sense
something very unusual about him.
Something that is not inherent
to a criminal personality.
In a few hours, I'll be turning him
over to the Angosians,
and I'll be happy to do it.
ISIGHS]
I understand.
ISIGHS]
Data?
Do we have a link-up
with the Angosian central computer?
Yes, counselor.
We are copying records
for Federation inspection
pursuant to their application
for admittance.
Can I see a police record
on Roga Danar?
DATA:
There is no police record.
That's impossible.
He's been in prison.
Lunar V is a military prison facility.
Military? He's a soldier?
That may provide an explanation
for the tactics
he was able to use against us
when we tried to capture him.
It doesn't say here
what he was arrested for.
Call up his military record.
DATA: He served in many campaigns
during the Tarsian War,
received two promotions
to the rank of subahdar,
a very honorable tour of duty.
ISIGHS]
What was this man's crime?
I've learned you are a soldier.
I was a soldier.
Why were you put in prison?
Obviously because
I am a threat to society.
There's no police record.
What did you do?
Everything they asked me to do.
That's why I became such a threat.
I don't understand.
Why are you bothering to try,
counselor?
Because I want to help ifl can.
Unlock the door.
You are a nonviolent man,
yet you committed acts
of excessive violence.
You can learn to do it if you have to.
- Did you have to?
- It was war.
So it started with the war.
It started the day I volunteered,
counselor.
The day I began training.
The day I met my first instructor.
And he also called himself
a counselor.
Roga Danar
was an idealistic young man
who answered his people's call
to service.
He joined the military to help fight
for the Angosian way of life.
What he didn't realize
was that by doing so,
he would have to give up
that way of life forever.
He's not the same man
who left home to go to war.
He's been through intense
psychological manipulation
and biochemical modifications.
CRUSHER:
At Troi's request, I examined him.
His cell structure has been
significantly altered.
They used a combination
of cryptobioloin,
triclenidil, macrospentol,
and a few things
I can't even recognize.
Was he a prisoner of war?
Who did this to him?
His own government.
He's been programmed
to be the perfect soldier.
He can be absolutely normal,
but when a danger is perceived,
the programming clicks in
and takes over.
Memory, strength, intelligence,
reflexes all become enhanced.
He's conditioned to survive
at any cost.
One of the new substances
in his cellular structure
even shields electrical impulses.
Perhaps that would explain
why our sensors did not detect him.
Why was he assigned
to the Lunar V facility?
He committed no crime.
He says he was ordered there
with others like him.
When the first soldiers returned
to Angosia, they had trouble.
The rules changed too quickly.
A lost temper could result in ***.
Counselor, did no one attempt
to adjust their programming?
They were just exiled to Lunar V.
Lunar V.
An orbiting gulag.
What do you want?
- Am I disturbing you?
- Yes.
- Then I will leave.
- No, wait, wait.
I'd rather talk to someone.
- Why do you have yellow eyes?
- I am an Android.
I believe you and I
have something in common.
- We do?
- Yes.
We have both been programmed.
Ah, yes, yes, you've been talking
to Counselor Troi.
It is not at all the same, android.
I do not mean to belittle your condition.
I understand your dilemma.
But I am curious.
My program can be altered.
Yours cannot?
The man I was is still inside me,
but this conditioning
has been imposed,
woven together with my thoughts
and my feelings and my responses.
How do you separate
the program from the man?
Without further analysis
of your condition from Counselor Troi
or Dr. Crusher, I cannot say.
- But I believe it is possible.
- Yeah, doctors.
The Angosian doctors did this to me.
If it could be undone,
wouldn't they undo it?
I cannot answer that.
Nor can I.
Yet I ask myself that question
every moment of every day.
Captain, what this man has been
telling you is full of half-truths.
He ’s a prisoner. What do you
expect him to say about us?
Well, perhaps you would clarify it
for me.
NAYROK [ON-SCREEN]:
Soldiers were resettled on Lunar V.
It was to be their colony.
Was it a resettlement
of their choosing?
It was for their own protection
as well as that of others.
Most of them are quite happy there.
We went to great lengths
to give them a fine quality of life.
Prime minister, even the most
comfortable prison is still a prison.
Unfortunately, a few agitators
like Danar forced us to add security.
My medical team suggests that
there may be alternative treatment.
Captain, I assure you that every
alternative has been explored.
And this discussion is now treading
upon matters of internal security.
This is not your concern.
I have dispatched a ship
to rendezvous with you
to transport the prisoner
back to Lunar V.
On behalf of Angosia,
I thank the Federation
for its assistance
in retrieving our citizen.
Matter of internal security.
The age-old cry of the oppressor.
- Were you built for combat, android?
DATA: No.
But my program
does include military strategy.
That is how I was able to anticipate
your final tactic and capture you.
You did that?
Perhaps you would be better
at combat than you think.
Except that I am not programmed
to kill.
My improved reflexes have allowed me
to kill 84 times.
And my improved memory
lets me remember
each of those 84 faces.
Can you understand how that feels?
I am incapable of any feeling.
Why, then I envy you.
[DOORS OPEN]
Roga, this is Captain Picard.
DANAR:
Captain.
Mr. Danar, I am transferring you
to Angosian security.
They're en route.
They will arrive shortly.
I wanted to tell you I have no choice.
The prime minister insisted,
and we have no right to refuse.
Well, you would be foolish
to consider it othenrvise, captain,
for they are very correct.
I am dangerous.
There is no place for me
in a civilized society.
- I do not believe that.
- Nor do I.
I respect my officers‘ judgments.
I wish I could help further.
If a way appears, I will.
I appreciate your telling me
that face-to-face.
I thought you deserved that much.
And you deserve to know
that I must use
whatever means I can to escape.
[COM BEEPS]
WORF [OVER COM]: Captain,
the Angosian transport vessel
has arrived.
Inform them the transport
will take place shortly. Picard out.
Mr. Data, to the Bridge, please.
Take care of yourself, android.
I enjoyed our talk.
I too.
Perhaps when this planet becomes
a member of the Federation,
- we'll be able--
- I'll not be there to see it, counselor.
Because even with
this ovenrvhelming demand to survive
that they've built into my soul,
I would rather die
than return to Lunar V.
Captain Picard,
we're ready to receive the prisoner.
[ON-SCREEN] Now transmitting
the coordinates of our holding cell.
[CONSOLE BEEPS]
Coordinates received, sir.
Stand by for transport. Picard out.
Mr. Worf, have all security precautions
been taken?
Release of the forcefield
and activation of the transporter
will be virtually simultaneous.
There will only be a 0.1 second
difference between them.
Even Danar can't move that fast.
There will be
a full security contingent present.
Proceed.
Transporter Room 1
to Lieutenant Worf. We're ready, sir.
[OVER COM]
Energizing.
[GROANING]
WORF:
O'Brien, increase transporter power.
I'm losing him.
[GROANING]
Roga, don't. You'll be killed!
What the hell?
[BEEPING]
Security personnel, full alert.
Shut down all shuttle bays,
transporters and turbolifts.
WORF [OVER COM]:
Captain, a phaser is missing.
We must assume that he is armed.
Sound general quarters.
Clear all corridors
of nonessential personnel.
I don't want him
taking any hostages.
General quarters sounded, sir.
Raise security containment fields
immediately on Decks 34, 35 and 36.
MAN [OVER COM]: Aye, sir.
- Data, put the turbolifts back online.
If Danar sees they're operating,
he may try to use them.
As soon as he does, we have him.
[BEEPING]
Sir, unauthorized access
of Turbolift 5 on Deck 34.
- He took the bait.
- Data, override its destination.
Divert that turbolift to a position near
to Lieutenant Worf's present location.
Four seconds to arrival, sir.
We're in position.
[PHASER WHIRRING]
Phaser on overload. Seal this deck.
[PHASER SHRIEKING]
[STOPS SHRIEKING]
WORF: Captain,
the overload has been averted.
[GUARD GRUNTS]
Drop forcefield on Deck 36.
Sir, containment field down
on Deck 36.
- How the hell did he manage that?
- He's headed for Engineering.
Riker to La Forge.
Engineering, respond.
[OVER COM]
Engineering? Engineering, come in.
Geordi, are you okay?
Captain, someone in Engineering
is attempting to override
the security-system lockout.
Riker to Worf. He's in Engineering.
Acknowledged, commander.
We're on our way.
Data, I want you to stall Danar.
Allow him to think he's succeeding.
As he bypasses each subsystem,
I can reroute it
without his knowledge.
Make it so.
Danar is extremely adept, sir.
I'm not certain which security measure
he's attempting to circumvent.
Sir, Danar has succeeded
in restoring power to Shuttle Bay 2.
I have overridden Danar's bypass.
Shuttle Bay 2 is once again inactive.
Very good, Mr. Data.
Now we know where he's headed.
[GUARD GROANS]
- You okay?
- Geordi!
I'm all right.
He took us by surprise.
He came out of nowhere.
I didn't think anyone
could move that fast.
DATA [OVER COM]: Lieutenant,
I am reading an open panel.
K-12, J-9, Deck 30.
Acknowledged.
Danar must have climbed up
the reactor core
and gotten into a Jefferies tube.
Ahh, he could be anywhere.
We believe he is attempting
to reach Shuttle Bay 2.
That's 25 decks up from here.
Quite a climb,
but I wouldn't put it past him.
There is a full contingent of security
at all shuttle bays.
You want my advice? Double it.
Captain, reading another
open access panel.
Security team to Jefferies tube,
J-4, Deck 15.
MAN [OVER COM]:
Security acknowledged.
[WHIRRING]
Deck 15.
A few decks below the shuttle bay.
Sir, I find it highly unlikely that Danar
would be attempting
to reach Shuttle Bay 2.
- Explain.
DATA: In our previous encounter,
Danar employed
a strategy of misdirection
in an attempt to gain his objective.
And you believe
he's using the same tactic now?
He is aware that our sensors
are unable to track him,
yet he seems to be purposely
leaving a trail for us to follow.
Where do you think he's headed?
I am afraid his true destination
remains a mystery.
Readings now indicate
an open access panel
in Jefferies tube N-11, Deck 38.
- He's doubled back on us.
- The cargo bays.
Advise all personnel on Deck 38
- to stay out of the cargo bays.
DATA: Aye, sir.
PICARD: Status, Mr. Data?
- They appear to be empty, sir.
Good.
I want you to flood
them with anesthizine.
DATA:
Aye, sir.
Sensors show anesthizine
concentration 70 parts per million
within the cargo bays.
That should put our boy to sleep.
Return environmental conditions
to normal, Mr. Data.
Move in your security teams,
Mr. Worf.
WORF:
Acknowledged.
Worf to Bridge.
We have found no sign
of the intruder.
But there is a missing pressure suit
from Cargo Bay 3.
Pressure suit?
Could be he's planning
to enter Shuttle Bay 2
from outside the Enterprise,
bypassing the security guards.
Mr. Worf, post security guards
at all emergency airlocks
on Decks 37 through 39.
Aye, sir.
I'll also cover
the photon torpedo launchers.
Danar may attempt
to leave the ship that way.
Worf out.
WORF:
Danar.
You are cunning.
You must have Klingon blood.
But the battle is over.
My battle is never over.
Worf to Bridge. I have Danar.
[BOTH GRUNTING]
Explosion in Jefferies tube
section T-95.
- All external sensors inoperative.
- Go to backup systems.
Unable to transfer control, sir.
[BOTH GRUNTING]
- What--?
DANAR: Sit down, gentlemen.
- Worf to Bridge.
PICARD [OVER COM]: Go ahead.
Danar has escaped.
He used a phaser
to power the cargo transporter.
Coordinates indicate he beamed
aboard the Angosian transport ship.
Data, can you verify that?
DATA:
Negative, sir.
All external sensors
still nonfunctioning.
Then we have no way to track him.
That was his plan all along.
RI KE R:
First officer's log, supplemental.
We are continuing to repair damage
to the ship's sensors
following the escape
of the Angosian prisoner, Danar.
He is still at large.
Engineering, I'm getting readings
on tactical. Are we back up?
LA FORGE [OVER COM]:
Affirmative, commander.
Mr. Worf, sweep the area.
Captain, the prime minister
is hailing us, priority one.
On-screen.
WORF:
Priority channel clear.
Yes, prime minister?
Captain, I've just been informed
that Roga Danar
has attacked
the penal colony on Lunar V.
Attacked it?
NAYROK [ON-SCREEN]:
In our own police shuttle.
Several of my people
have been wounded.
Hundreds of prisoners are rioting.
Some of them have escaped
with Danar
and, at last report,
are headed toward the capital city.
Captain, we are not suited
to handle situations like this.
That's what we created them for.
I'll send an away team,
prime minister.
Picard out.
Counselor Troi, Commander Data
and Mr. Worf,
you will accompany me
to the planet.
And my understanding is that
these men are programmed to survive,
- is that correct?
- Yes, captain.
And that they will not kill
unless their survival is at stake?
It is against their nature to do so,
captain.
Then let us hope they do not believe
their survival is at stake.
RIKER:
Mr. Worf.
You are personally responsible
for the captain's safety.
I understand, commander.
[ALL CHATTERING]
I don't expect them
to listen to reason.
I loathe the idea
of a violent confrontation,
but we must be prepared.
This is all you've brought?
Where are your security men?
We're not here
to fight your wars for you.
NAYROK: They have been seen
moving towards the center of the city.
People are scared.
Don't you understand?
They're dangerous.
You are dangerous.
They're only victims.
You made them what they are.
You asked them to defend your way
of life, and then you discarded them.
They were not happy here.
They were not welcome here.
It was the will of the people
to resettle them.
No one was pleased
with the solution.
But we had to act
for the greater good.
DATA:
Prime minister,
if you have the skills to create
a master soldier,
can you not counteract the effect?
The chemicals can be removed
from their systems.
But we're not convinced
that the psychological conditioning
can ever be entirely reversed.
- Have you tried, sir?
- We studied it thoroughly.
Even before the training began,
we knew there would be problems
reversing it.
It was a risk we had to take.
Did you reveal that risk to the men
who volunteered for service?
We were helping them
to survive the war.
You understand?
They needed those skills.
They're your brothers, your sons,
and you turned your backs on them.
DEANNA:
There are methods of treatment.
Until you try them,
how can you know they won't work?
Even a partial recovery
could give them some peace.
It was the will of the people.
To allow them to suffer?
NAYROK:
There was a referendum.
The people weighed
the costs involved.
They chose the settlement solution.
Besides, we may need
to use them again someday.
- Have you understood one word?
DANAR: Move in!
- Freeze.
- Nobody move.
PICARD:
No, Worf.
All of you. Don't respond.
Don't provoke them further.
Keep those weapons down
unless you wish to be killed.
- Do as he says.
- No.
Don't. Shoot us.
Destroy us. Do what you have to.
But you will not ignore us.
Come on, do it!
Cowards.
Yes, and you're not programmed
to *** cowards.
So if they will not fight back,
what will you do?
We will not go back.
You are programmed to survive.
You can survive
at the Lunar V settlement.
To survive is not enough.
To simply exist is not enough.
Roga, tell them what you want.
We want our lives back.
We want to come home.
I am not prepared to negotiate
under threat, Danar.
But if you will put down your weapons
and return peaceably to Lunar V,
I would be willing.
Mr. Prime Minister,
with all due respect,
you will have to force us.
Or at least try.
Captain, you must do something.
Call your ship.
Quite right, prime minister.
Enterprise, prepare to beam
the away team back.
RIKER [OVER COM]:
At your command, captain.
Picard, you can't leave us like this.
I have all the information
I need for my report.
Your prisoner
has been returned to you.
And you have a decision to make.
Whether to try
and force them back
or welcome them home.
In your own words,
this is not our affair.
We cannot interfere
in the natural course
of your society's development.
And I'd say it's going to develop
significantly in the next few minutes.
It's been an interesting visit.
When you're ready for membership,
the Federation will be pleased
to reconsider your application.
- Mr. Riker, four to beam up.
RIKER: Aye, sir.
RIKER: Success, captain?
- Number One,
will you note in our report
that if the government
of Angosia survives the night,
we will offer them
Federation assistance
in their efforts
to reprogram their veterans?
RIKER:
And if the government doesn't survive?
I have a feeling they will choose to.
Mr. Crusher, set coordinates
for starbase Lyra 3.
Coordinates set, sir.
Engage.
