How does it feel to be back

on the Enterprise Bridge?

Captain Kirk?

-Can I ask you a few questions?

-Did you participate in the redesign?

We'd like to know how you feel

about being on...

Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me.

There will be plenty of time

for questions later.

I'm Captain John Harriman,

and I'd like to welcome you all aboard.

-It's our pleasure.

-I just want you to know

how excited we all are

to have a group of living legends

with us on our maiden voyage.

I remember reading about your missions

when I was in grade school.

Really?

-Well, may we have a look around?

-Please, please.

Yes, sir,

it's very nice to finally meet you.

-Demora!

-Excuse me. Captain?

This is the first Starship Enterprise

in 30 years

without James T. Kirk in command.

How do you feel about that, sir?

Just fine. I'm glad to be here

to send her on her way.

And what have you been doing

since you retired?

Keeping busy.

Captain Kirk,

just a few more questions, sir.

Why don't we give the Captain

a chance to look around first?

Captain. Excuse me.

I'd like you to meet the helmsman

of the Enterprise-B. Demora.

Ensign Demora Sulu.

It's a pleasure to meet you, sir.

My father's told me

some interesting stories about you.

-Your father is Hikaru Sulu?

-Yes, sir.

-You've met her before, but she was...

-It wasn't that long ago.

-It couldn't have been more than...

-Twelve years, sir.

-Twelve years?

-Absolutely.

Incredible.

Congratulations, Ensign.

It wouldn't be the Enterprise

without a Sulu at the helm.

Thank you, sir.

I'm sure Hikaru must be

very proud of you.

I hope so.

I was never that young.

No, you were younger.

-Damn fine ship if you ask me.

-Scotty, it absolutely amazes me.

And what would that be, sir?

Sulu, when did he find time for a family?

Well, like you always say,

if something's important,

you make the time.

So that's why you seem so restless.

Finding retirement a little lonely,

are we?

You know, I'm glad you're an engineer.

With tact like that,

you'd make a lousy psychiatrist.

Excuse me, gentlemen,

if you'll take your seats.

Yes, of course.

Prepare to leave spacedock.

Aft thrusters ahead one-quarter,

port and starboard at station keeping.

-Captain Kirk.

-Yes?

I'd be honored if you'd give the order

to get underway.

-Thank you very much, I...

-Please, sir.

-No, no, no, no.

-Please, I insist.

Take us out.

-Very good, sir.

-Brought a tear to me eye.

Be quiet.

Gentlemen, gentlemen.

Now that you've seen

the rest of the ship,

how does it feel to be back?

-Well, we... Fine.

-Fine, fine.

-Fine, fine.

-Well, ladies and gentlemen,

we've just cleared the asteroid belt.

Our course today will take us out

beyond Pluto

and then back to spacedock.

Just a quick run around the block.

Captain, will there be time to conduct

any tests on the warp drive system?

We're picking up a distress call,

Captain.

On speakers.

This is the transport ship Lakul.

We're caught

in some kind of energy distortion.

Two ships in our convoy...trapped

in a severe gravimetric distortion.

We can't break free.

We need immediate help.

It's tearing us apart.

This is the transport...

The Lakul is one of two ships

transporting El-Aurian refugees

to Earth.

Ensign Sulu, can you locate them?

The ships are bearing

at 3-1 -0 mark 2-1 -5.

Distance, three light-years.

Signal the closest starship.

We're in no condition

to mount a rescue.

-We don't even have a full crew aboard.

-We're the only one in range, sir.

Well, then, I guess it's up to us.

Helm, lay in an intercept course

and engage at maximum warp.

Aye, sir.

Captain, is there something wrong

with your chair?

We're within visual range

of the energy distortion, Captain.

On screen.

What the hell is that?

I've located the transport ships.

Their hulls are starting to buckle

under the stress.

They won't survive much longer.

We're encountering severe

gravimetric distortions

from the energy ribbon, Captain.

We'll have to keep our distance.

We don't wanna get pulled in, too.

-Tractor beam. Tractor beam.

-We don't have a tractor beam.

You left spacedock

without a tractor beam?

It won't be installed until Tuesday.

Ensign Sulu,

try generating a subspace field

around the ships.

That might break them free.

There's too much quantum interference,

Captain.

What about... What about

venting plasma from the warp nacelles?

That might disrupt the ribbon's hold

on the ships.

Aye, sir. Releasing drive plasma.

It's not having any effect, sir.

I think the ribbon's hold...

Sir, the starboard vessel's hull

is collapsing!

-How many people were on that ship?

-Two hundred and sixty-five.

Sir, the Lakul's hull integrity

is down to 12%.

Captain Kirk, I would appreciate

any suggestions you might have.

First, move us within transporter range.

Beam those people

aboard the Enterprise.

What about the gravimetric distortions?

They'll tear us apart.

Risk is part of the game

if you wanna sit in that chair.

Helm, close to within transporter range.

Second, turn that damn thing off!

-We're within range, sir.

-Beam them directly to Sickbay.

-Aye, sir.

-How big is your medical staff?

The medical staff?

It doesn't arrive till Tuesday.

You and you,

you've just become nurses. Let's go.

Main Engineering reports fluctuations

in the warp plasma relays.

Sir, I'm having trouble

locking on to them.

Gene Roddenberry

Eugene Wesley Roddenberry (August 19, 1921 – October 24, 1991) was an American television screenwriter and producer. He is best remembered for creating the original Star Trek television series. Born in El Paso, Texas, Roddenberry grew up in Los Angeles, where his father was a police officer. Roddenberry flew 89 combat missions in the Army Air Forces during World War II, and worked as a commercial pilot after the war. Later, he followed in his father's footsteps and joined the Los Angeles Police Department, where he also began to write scripts for television. As a freelance writer, Roddenberry wrote scripts for Highway Patrol, Have Gun–Will Travel, and other series, before creating and producing his own television series The Lieutenant. In 1964, Roddenberry created Star Trek, which premiered in 1966 and ran for three seasons before being canceled. He then worked on other projects, including a string of failed television pilots. The syndication of Star Trek led to its growing popularity; this, in turn, resulted in the Star Trek feature films, on which Roddenberry continued to produce and consult. In 1987, the sequel series Star Trek: The Next Generation began airing on television in first-run syndication; Roddenberry was heavily involved in the initial development of the series, but took a less active role after the first season due to ill health. He continued to consult on the series until his death in 1991. In 1985, he became the first TV writer with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and he was later inducted by both the Science Fiction Hall of Fame and the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences Hall of Fame. Years after his death, Roddenberry was one of the first humans to have his ashes carried into earth orbit. The popularity of the Star Trek universe and films has inspired films, books, comic books, video games, and fan films set in the Star Trek universe. more…
