Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country Page #3

I could only succeed you, sir.

Now hear this. All officers to the Bridge.

Klingon battle cruiser off the port bow.

All officers to the Bridge.

Captain on the Bridge.

Shall we raise our shields, Captain?

Never been this close.

The Chancellor is undoubtedly awaiting

our signal.

-Uhura, hailing frequencies.

-Aye, sir.

Right standard rudder.

Bring us alongside.

Right standard rudder.

Z plus 5 degrees.

Channel is open, Captain.

This is the Starship Enterprise,

Captain James T. Kirk commanding.

This is Kronos One.

I am Chancellor Gorkon.

Chancellor, we've been ordered

to escort you

through Federation space

to your meeting on Earth.

Thank you, Captain.

Would you and your party

care to dine this evening

aboard the Enterprise with my officers,

as guests

of the United Federation of Planets?

We would be delighted to accept

your gracious invitation.

We'll make arrangements to have you

beamed aboard at 1930 hours.

I shall look forward to that.

-Well, I hope you're happy.

-Captain,

there is a supply

of Romulan ale aboard.

It might make the evening

pass more smoothly.

Officer thinking, Lieutenant.

Guess who's coming to dinner.

Energise.

-Chancellor Gorkon.

-Captain Kirk.

May I present Captain Spock,

whom I believe you know.

Captain, face to face at last.

-You have my thanks.

-Chancellor.

Gentlemen,

this is my daughter Azetbur,

my military adviser, Brigadier Kerla,

and this is General Chang,

my chief of staff.

I have so wanted to meet you, Captain.

I'm not sure how to take that.

Sincere admiration, Kirk.

From one warrior to another.

Right.

This way.

I think you might enjoy a brief tour.

-They all look alike.

-What about that smell?

You know only top-of-the-line models

can even talk...

You men have work?

-Yes, ma'am.

-Yes, ma'am.

Then snap to it.

I offer a toast.

"The undiscover'd country,"

the future.

-"The undiscover'd country."

-"The undiscover'd country."

Hamlet, Act III, Scene 1.

You've not experienced Shakespeare

until you have read him

in the original Klingon.

Captain Kirk,

I thought Romulan ale was illegal.

One of the advantages

of being 1,000 light-years

from Federation Headquarters.

To you, Chancellor Gorkon,

one of the architects of our future.

-Chancellor.

-Chancellor.

Perhaps we are looking

at something of that future here.

Tell me, Captain Kirk,

would you be willing

to give up Starfleet?

I believe the Captain feels

that Starfleet's mission

has always been one of peace.

Far be it for me

to dispute my first officer,

but Starfleet has always been

at the fore...

Captain, there's no need

to mince words.

In space, all warriors are cold warriors.

General, are you fond of
