to beam down with a search party.

We need to find Cochrane.

Crusher to Enterprise,

two to beam directly to Sickbay.

We have less than 14 hours

before this ship has to be launched.

- Picard to Engineering.

- La Forge here.

Geordi, Cochrane's ship was damaged

in the attack.

Get down here with an engineering

detail. We have work to do.

Right. I'm on my way, Captain.

Alpha team, let's assemble

in Transporter Room 3.

We're heading down to the surface.

Porter, you're gonna be in command

till I get back.

- Aye, sir.

- And, Porter,

check out the environmental controls

while I'm gone.

It's getting a little warm in here.

All right, let's go.

Looks like a good spot right here.

Isnt it amazing?

This ship used to be a nuclear missile.

It is an historical irony

that Dr. Cochrane would choose

an instrument of mass destruction

to inaugurate an era of peace.

It's a boyhood fantasy, Data.

I must've seen this ship

hundreds of times in the Smithsonian,

but I was never able to touch it.

Sir, does tactile contact alter

your perception of the Phoenix?

Oh, yes.

For humans, touch can connect you

to an object in a very personal way,

make it seem more real.

I am detecting imperfections

in the titanium casing,

temperature variations

in the fuel manifold.

It is no more real to me now

than it was a moment ago.

Would you three like to be alone?

What have you found out?

There's no sign of Cochrane

anywhere in the complex.

He has to be here.

There was nothing more important

to him than this ship.

This flight, it was his dream.

Captain, we should consider

the possibility

that Dr. Cochrane was killed

in the attack.

If that's true,

then the future may die with him.

What do you think?

It's like the entire

environmental system's gone crazy.

It's not just Engineering.

It's the entire deck.

Maybe it's a problem

with the EPS conduits.

Hello?

- Hey!

- Are you talking to me?

Is there anyone else

working maintenance in this section?

Not that I know of.

Paul?

Paul? Are you okay in there?

Captain? What is it?

Picard to Enterprise.

Mr. Worf, is everything all right

up there?

Yes, sir. We are experiencing some

environmental difficulties on Deck 16,

but that is all.

- What kind of difficulties?

- Humidity levels have risen 73%

and the temperature has jumped

- Mr. Data and I are returning to the ship.

- Understood.

- Number One, take charge down here.

- Aye, sir.

Damage to her cell membranes

is repaired.

She should be fine,

but I'd like to run another test

on her spinal tissue.

And find out why it's so hot in here.

Now what?

Crusher to Engineering.

Crusher to Bridge.

Commander Worf, I need to know
