Star Trek: Beyond (2016) - full transcript

After stopping off at Starbase Yorktown, a remote outpost on the fringes of Federation space, the USS Enterprise, halfway into their five-year mission, is destroyed by an unstoppable wave of unknown aliens. With the crew stranded on an unknown planet and with no apparent means of rescue, they find themselves fighting against a ruthless enemy with a well-earned hatred of the Federation and everything it stands for. Only a rebellious alien warrior can help them reunite and leave the planet to stop this deadly menace from beginning a possible galactic war.

My name is Captain James Tiberius Kirk,

United Federation of Planets.

I'm appearing before you

as a neutral representative

of the Fobonane Republic.

I bring you a message of goodwill

and present to you,

esteemed members of the Teenaxi Delegation,

a gift from the Fobonane High Council

with the highest regard.

What's wrong with it?

- Excuse me?

- Why don't they want it anymore?

I... Well, this was once

a piece of an ancient weapon.

Now they offer it

as a symbol of... of peace

In the Fobonane culture, to surrender

a weapon is an offer of truce.

How did they come by it?

They told me that they

acquired it a long time ago.

So they stole it then!

No, they...

Well...

You don't know the Fobonese

like we do.

Yeah, that's very true.

Your Excellency, this gift...

They are crowds of untrustworthy thieves

who want to see us

murdered in our own beds!

This beloved artifact is

a symbol of trust and peace.

They want to chop us into pieces

and roast us over a fire!

No, they...

I don't think that's true.

And eat us!

What?

Scotty, get me out of here!

- That was quick!

- Scotty!

There's quite a bit of

surface interference, sir.

Scotty!

Stop!

- I ripped my shirt again.

- Stop!

How did it go?

Captain, did you manage to broke

a treaty with the Teenaxi?

Uh...

Let's just say it came up short.

Would you lock...

lock that.

Put it in the vaults, Spock.

Thank you.

Jim, you look like crap.

Thank you, Bones.

You have a little vein popping out

of your temple again, you okay?

Never better!

Just another day in the fleet.

Captain's Log, Stardate 2263.2.

Today is our 966th day

in deep space.

A little under 3 years

into our 5 year mission

The more time we spend out here,

the harder it is to tell where

one day ends and next one begins.

It can be a challenge

to feel grounded

when even gravity is artificial.

But, well, we do what we can

to make it feel like home.

The crew is always continues

to act admirably despite

the rigors of our extended stay

here in outer space.

And personal sacrifices they have made.

We continue to search

for new life forms

in order to establish

firm diplomatic ties.

Our extended time in uncharted territories

has stretch the ship's mechanical

capabilities, but fortunately,

our engineering department, led by Mr.Scott,

is more than up to job.

The ship aside,

prolonged cohabitation has...

definitely had affects on

interpersonal dynamics.

Some experiences for better

and... some for the worse.

As for me,

things have started to feel...

a little episodic.

The further we go,

the more I found myself wondering:

"What it is we're trying to accomplish?"

If the universe is truly endless,

then...

are we not striving for something

forever out of reach.

The Enterprise is scheduled for

a reprovisoning stop at Yorktown,

Federation's newest and most advanced starbase.

Perhaps a break from routine

will offer us some respite

from the mysteries and the unknown.

Sorry I'm late.

Keenser's leaking some kind of

highly aseptic green goo

and Scotty's terrified that he's going to

sneeze on the warp core

and kill us all.

What the hell are you drink?

I'm pretty sure it's the rest of that

Saurian brandy we picked up on Thasus.

My God, man!

Are you trying to go blind?

That stuff's illegal.

Besides, I found this in Chekov's locker.

- Wow.

- Right.

I mean, I always assume

he'd be a...

- Vodka guy.

- Vodka guy. Exactly.

I wanted to have something

appropriate for your birthday.

It's in a couple of days.

You know I don't care about that.

I know. I know you don't like

celebrating on the day

Because it's also the day

your pa bit the dust.

I was being sensitive.

Did they teach you about

bedside manner in medical school?

Or it's just your southern charm?

- Oh yeah.

- Oh, it's good.

Lordy.

Are you going to

call your mom?

Yeah, of course,

I'll call her that day.

I'm one year older.

Yeah, that's usually how it works.

A year older than

he ever got to be.

He joins the Starfleet

because he...

he believed in it.

I joined out of dare.

You joined to see if

you can live up to him.

He spent all this time

trying to be George Kirk

And now you're wondering just

what it means to be Jim

while you're out here.

To perfect eyesight

and a full head of hair.

- Kirk Here.

- Captain.

- Approaching Yorktown Base.

- I'm on my way, Mr. Sulu.

Let's keep this birthday thing

under wraps, huh.

You know me, Mr. Sensitive.

Wow.

That is impressive.

Aye, she's a beauty, isn't she?

What a damn monstrosity.

Couldn't we just rent

some space on a planet?

Showing geographical favoritism

among inductive Federation worlds

could cause diplomatic tension.

Oh, you don't think that looks tense?

Looks like a damn snow globe

in space, just waiting to break.

That's the spirit, Bones.

Spock.

Do you have a moment?

Of course, Nyota.

You should have this back

After all, it belonged

to your mother.

It is not in the Vulcan custom

to receive again that

which was given as a gift.

USS Stargazer, NCC-2893, is deporting

from ship lane 4 in 15 minutes.

Your guys break up?

What did you do?

A typically reductive inquiry, doctor.

You know Spock, if

an Earth girl says:

"It's me, not you."

It's definitely you.

Excuse me.

Commander Spock, may we

have a moment of your time?

This is wonderful!

- You know, I've never been here.

- Oh no.

What I hear is that

the buns here are excellent.

Hey.

- Daddy.

- Hey.

Hey.

- Hey.

- So glad you insisted to come.

Thank you for bring this to my attention.

Live long and prosper.

Live long and prosper.

STARDATE

2230.06 - 2263.02

AMBASSADOR SPOCK

I have red alert

on incoming vessel.

Unidentified, non-federation.

Attention, unidentified vessel,

you are not authorized to approach.

Power down and await instruction.

Unidentified vessel, please comply.

Speak normally.

Language analysis complete.

Is this working?

We were on a science mission

inside the nebula.

Our ship, suffered a critical malfunction.

I took an escape pod,

before the ship crash landed

on a nearby planet.

We need a ship,

capable of navigating the nebula.

You must have someone

who can help us.

We tracked her stranded ship

to a sector of uncharted nebula.

Here, 210 marked 14.

Long range scan?

No data.

The Nebula is too dense.

It's uncharted space.

Well, the Enterprise does have the best

navigation system in the fleet.

She could handle it.

The only ship here with

more advanced technology

is still under construction.

But it's not just the ship

that I'm sending.

I'll gather the crew.

Captain.

Starfleet Command sent me

your application for the Vice Admiral position,

here at this installation.

Yes, ma'am.

Um.

If I may, I would...

recommend Commander Spock

replace me as

captain of the Enterprise.

He is an exemplary Starfleet officer.

He'll make a great captain.

It isn't uncommon, you know,

even for a captain,

to want to leave.

There is no relative direction

in the vastness of space.

There's only yourself,

your ship,

your crew.

- It's easier than you think to get lost.

- It's not about...

I'll bring it up

with the General Council.

We'll discuss it

when you return.

Ma'am.

- Mr. Spock.

- Captain.

- I was...

- Perhaps there...

- No, please.

- Captain, after you.

I insist.

After this mission,

we should-we should sit down.

I have something

I need to talk to you about.

I as well have something to share.

We make a good team, right?

I believe we do.

I insist.

Lieutenant Uhura, open the shipwide channel.

Yes, Captain.

Attention, crew of the Enterprise.

Our mission is straightforward.

Rescue a crew stranded on a planet

in uncharted space.

Our trajectory will take us

through a unstable nebula,

a one which will disable all

communications with Starfleet.

We're going to be

on our own.

The Enterprise has something

no other ship in the fleet has.

You.

As we've come to understand

there is no such thing as the unknown.

Only the temporarily hidden.

Kirk out.

Readings indicate cloud density

diminishing, sir.

This is Altamid.

My ship is stranded here.

Approaching Altamid.

Class M Planet .

Massive subterranean development,

but limited to no life forms on the surface.

Proximity alert, sir.

We have an unknown ship

heading right towards us.

- Lieutenant Uhura, hail them.

- Yes, Captain.

No response.

I am picking up

some kind of signal.

They're jamming us.

Magnify, Mr. Sulu.

What is this?

Shields Up, red alert!

Fire at will!

Sir, our phasers are

having minimal effects

And our torpedoes

can't track their movements.

Fire everything we've got.

Captain, we are not equipped

for this matter of engagement.

Shield frequencies have no effect, sir!

They took out the disc.

Shields are inoperable.

- Warp us out of here, Mr. Sulu.

- Yes, sir.

- Why the hell aren't we moving?

- I can't engage the warp drive, sir.

Scotty, I need warp now!

I can't, sir.

The nacelles, they...

They're gone!

Security, engage all

emergency procedures.

Alpha Protocol 28,

Code 1-Alpha-Zero.

All personnel's to alert stations.

It's in sector 12!

Sir, I have hull breaches

in levels 12 to 15.

6, 9, 31 and 21, sir.

Captain, there is a chance

I can reroute the energy reserves

from the warp core

to the impulse engines!

We can get back into the nebula,

maybe we can lose them.

Do whatever you have to do, Scotty.

Wee-man!

Let's go.

All clear, Krall.

Connect the plasma conduits

and standby to relay on my mark!

I have the Abronath.

Secure the ship.

- Captain.

- Go, Spock.

I have identified the individual who

appears to be leading the attack party.

He infiltrated the archive vault and removed

the artifact from our mission on Teenax.

Hold your distance until we...

Spock!

Spock!

You two with me.

Sulu, you have the Conn.

Yes, sir.

My god!

- CRITICAL ALERT -

FOREIGN SUBSTANCE DETECTED

The hell!

Doctor?

Doctor, we must evacuate now!

Captain...

Kirk.

Yes!

We have 100% impulse.

Great work, Mr. Scott.

Maximum impulse towards the nebula.

Aye.

Krall, the ship is turning back!

Cut it's throat.

Kirk to bridge.

We are losing the inertial dampers.

Systems are failing shipwide, Captain.

Emergency bulkheads are

sealing but structural integrity

is at 18% and falling, sir.

Abandon ship, Mr. Sulu.

Sound the alarm.

Abandon ship.

All personnel evacuate immediately.

We need to give those pods

a chance to escape.

Can you lead those ships away?

Impulse engines are still trying to

draw power from the warp reserve.

We cannot move until

the saucer is separated.

I'll handle it.

Aye-aye, sir.

Abandon ship.

All personnel evacuate immediately.

Are you hurt?

We're good.

Get him up. Get him up.

I got you.

We got to get you guys

to an escape pod.

Go.

Go!

Ensign Syl.

I need your help.

Yes, sir.

My god!

Spock, they're taking the crew!

Abandon ship.

All personnel evacuate immediately.

Are you okay?

The saucer should be

free by now!

I know, Mr. Sulu!

The captain should be there!

All personnel evacuate immediately.

SAUCER SEPARATION

CONFIRM?

SAUCER SEPARATION

ACTIVATING

Impulse engines drawing power

from auxiliary generators.

Captain.

How many of the crew

are still onboard the saucer?

None.

But if I'm reading this correctly,

the intruders are taking them.

Captain, we are caught

in the planet's gravity.

We cannot pull away.

Get your Kelvin pods.

- Yes, sir.

- Aye, Captain.

Come on, let's go!

You knew.

You knew we would be attacked.

- You don't understand.

- Captain!

Captain Kirk!

Yes, I lied.

Our ship was attacked.

Chekov, check the comms for survivors.

Aye.

Aye, Captain.

Who is he?

His name is Krall.

He took my crew,

like he took yours

How did he know so much

about the Enterprise?

All I know is that

if I did this...

He would set them free.

Chekov, are you picking anything up

on those scanners?

Nothing, sir.

- What if they...

- No. No.

He was taking them.

We have to find that saucer.

Even...

minimum scanning systems would have

more range than a tricorders.

Aye, Captain.

It's possible.

Captain, I was protecting my crew.

We're searching

for the captain.

What is your name?

How do you know our language?

I know your... kind.

I am Lieutenant Nyota Uhura

of the USS Enterprise.

And you have committed an act of war

against the Federation.

Federation!

Federation is an act of war.

You attacked us.

Your captain...

Why did you sacrifice

yourself for him?

He would have done the same.

And If he made off that ship,

he will come for us.

I am counting on it, Lieutenant Uhura.

I can't believe it.

My god, Spock!

Sit down over here.

Okay. Okay.

Easy, easy

Okay.

I'll just uh...

Try to relax.

You're going to be okay.

The forced optimism in your voice

suggest that you are trying to

- enlist a sense of calm in order to...

- Okay, cut the horseshit.

Doctor, I fail to see

excrement of any kind

bears relevance on our

current situation.

- Whoa. What the hell are you doing?

- We must keep moving, Doctor.

Spock, this thing's punctured

your iliac region.

- Which time is a critical factor.

- That's exactly what I'm trying to tell you.

Look, if I can't take this out,

you're going to die.

Okay, If I take it out and

can't stop the bleeding,

you're going to die.

I can see no appeal

in either option.

Yeah, believe it or not,

neither can I.

So, if I remember correctly,

The... Vulcans have their hearts

where humans have their livers.

That is correct, Doctor.

That explains a thing or two!

You know you're lucky!

An inch to the left ..

and you'll be dead already.

I just don't get it, Spock.

I mean, what?

What did they attack us for?

I mean...

They do all this for some... doodad

that the tiny critters didn't want?

It is unwise to trivialize that which one

simply does not understand, Doctor.

We can safely assume that it is

more important than a doodad.

I think you just managed

to insult me twice, Spock.

Okay.

Alright, Spock.

I just got one question.

- What's your favorite color?

- I fail to see the relevance...

Ah!

AAAHHHHH!

Yeah. They say it hurts

less if it's a surprise

I may adopt a parlance

which you are familiar.

I can confirm your theory

to be horseshit.

We got to

get out of here.

You're kidding me, aren't you?

Hello there.

My name is Montgomery Scott.

And...

Who might you be?

Watch it, sonny.

I'm pretty handy

when I want to be, aye.

Don't come back.

Well, we certainly showed them,

uh lassie?

Hey, that's Starfleet property, okay.

You cannot just take it.

Uh. But I'm feeling generous today

so how about it.

Where you get that?

- Is that English?

- I learn it from my house.

Where you get that?

- This is my Starfleet insignia.

- What does it mean ?

It means that I'm an officer of Starfleet.

Engineering division.

Engineering?

Aye, that's right,

I fix things.

I know what is engineering.

You know where those bastards

that killed my ship, are you?

I will take that as a no.

He is Krall.

He and his...

bees.

They search the stars for a...

death machine

They are the reason why you're here,

why we are all here.

What?

Even those 3 scummers?

They are falling from the sky,

like me and you.

Come with me.

Now!

Wait.

Now hang on a minute, lassie.

I'm having a difficult day here.

I got to find my crewmates.

I will help you find your mates,

and then you will help me.

With what?

You want me to fix something?

Yes.

You help me, and I help you.

Alright. Well, things being as they are,

I doubt I'll get a better offer today.

So lead the way.

Good.

I am Jayla.

- And you're Montgomery Scott.

- Aye, Scotty.

Come now, Montgomery Scotty.

Hold on.

The Enterprise...

may not even have power

to the bridge, Captain.

She still have a few tricks

up her sleeve.

I bet on it.

McCoy to Enterprise, come in.

McCoy to Enterprise.

Hey, take it easy there, Spock.

That was just a temporary fix back there.

I understand, Doctor.

Fascinating.

Ominous, dark, dangerous.

We go in.

Intriguing.

These symbols, are the same as those

depicted on the artifact taken in the attack.

You think it came from here?

It would seem so.

Damn it, Spock.

Easy.

Easy.

Hurry.

Aren't we there yet?

Stop asking that.

- Sorry.

- This is the way, come.

And watch your steps,

we do not want you set off my traps.

Oh.

That's clever.

What is this place?

This is my house.

Your house?

Hold on a minute.

Is this a ship?

I hope you find your friends

and you help me fix it.

So I can leave this planet forever.

Wait a minute.

Is this your ship?

No, Montgomery Scotty.

It's yours.

Oh my good lord.

U.S.S. FRANKLIN

STARFLEET REGISTRY NX 326

Captain, it looks like

there is power.

Alright, let's get to the bridge

and I'll find the crew.

The console is intact, Captain.

I will...

try to reroute power to it.

Well, work fast.

Once we get this place lite up,

we're going to draw a lot of attention.

What do you think?

Can you find them?

Aye, Captain.

I'm reconfiguring scanners

to modulate for the crew signals.

You're with me.

I left something behind.

That is one heck of a cold.

Nice job, Keenser.

Alright, we got about 15 minutes

until the next guard rotation.

Come on.

Let's go. Come on.

This is a Magellan probe.

Federation was using this

to find a way through the nebula.

What's he using it for?

What do you see?

He's been piggybacking the

subspace links between the probes.

Can we use it to send a...

distress signal.

I can try.

It's sent.

He's accessed the Yorktown database.

What?

He's got Starfleet data files, ship logs,

including the Enterprise.

He's been watching us

this whole time.

Captain, the artifact was

on the ship the whole time?

I couldn't afford

to get caught with it.

So I hid it in here.

Tell Krall.

I have the Abronath.

Do you believe

every sad story you hear?

Not every.

Put the phaser down, please.

Did you get it, Chekov?

Aye, Captain.

I've traced the location of her call.

What does Krall want with this thing?

To save you...

from yourselves.

Captain!

- You all right?

- Aye, Captain, but we are trapped.

Can you get this thing started?

Are you intermitting the intuition...

engage the thrusters?

I'm open to other suggestions.

Okay.

- There's a problem, sir.

- What?

Fuel is primed.

I cannot get it to combust!

Captain, we are basically

standing on a very large bomb!

- If you miss the combustion compressor...

- I'm not going to miss, come on.

Sir, do you know what the

combustion compressor looks like?

A square, right?

No, it's round.

That's what I said.

RUN!

Captain!

- Go!

- Okay. Okay.

Chekov!

Chekov, move!

Do you think you know

what sacrifice really means?

Federation has taught you

that conflict should not exist!

Ha!

But without struggle,

you would never know

who you truly are.

You have no idea

who we are.

But you'll soon find out.

You mean the distress signal

you thought you sent?

The coordinates were altered.

Your rescue ships will be

stranded in the nebula

and your base left... full open.

You're going to attack Yorktown.

Millions of souls from every

Federation world holding hands.

It's a perfect target.

You're wrong.

There is strength in unity.

The strength of others, Lieutenant,

is what kept me alive.

- No!

- Don't!

Spock!

Spock, wake up, damn it!

I am entirely conscious, Doctor.

I'm simply contemplating

the nature of mortality.

Feeling philosophical, huh?

Massive blood loss

will do that to you.

You asked me why Lieutenant Uhura

and I parted ways.

I became concerned...

in the light of Vulcans demise

that I owe a debt of duty

to my species.

You thought you should be off

making little Vulcans, huh?

Yeah, I can see

how that'd upset her.

I intended to discuss it with her further

but I received some news which

affected me unexpectedly.

What news?

Ambassador Spock has died.

Oh.

Spock, I'm so sorry.

I can't imagine

what that must feel like.

When you lived

as many lives as he...

Fear of death is illogical.

Fear of death...

is what keeps us alive.

I want to live as he did.

That is why I decided...

to redirect my efforts

and continue his work...

on New Vulcan.

You're leaving Starfleet?

What did Jim have

to say about that?

I could not find the time

to tell him.

Oh, I can tell you,

he's not going to like that.

Hell, I don't know what

he'd do without you.

I mean, you know, me on the other hand.

I'd-I'd throw a party but...

My god, you get delirious.

How far are we from

the coordinates of that call?

Still a way, sir.

- Captain?

- Yeah?

When did you begin

to suspect her?

Not soon enough.

How did you know?

Oh.

I guess you can say

I got a...

good nose for danger.

Run!

Is that music?

Where the hell

is that coming from?

There.

I plugged the little box in the power cell

and the little mouth make it sing.

That's very clever.

Music is a bit old fashion

for my taste

...not to mention very loud and distracting...

but hey, well played.

I like the beats and shouting.

Well, you do?

- Switch it off.

- Oh, I'm okay.

Switch it off!

Someone set off

one of my traps.

Shh.

Captain?

- You know these men?

- Aye, lassie.

- That wee man there is Pavel Chekov.

- Hello.

And that handsome bastard is James T. Kirk.

They are my mates.

It's good to see you sir.

-What is she doing? Scotty.

-Just...

don't hurt them because...

Take... You take that thing and

HIT HER!

- You're free, James T.

- There we go.

Mr. Scott.

Who's your new friend here?

- She sure knows how to

throw out a welcome mat.

- This is Jaylah.

I do not know

what is a welcome mat.

- You find anybody else?

- No, sir.

I'm sorry.

You are the only ones.

What the hell happened up there, Jim?

Why were we attacked?

They were after the artifact

we brought back from Teenax.

- Did they get it?

- No.

- Have you got it?

- No. I...

have to get it off the Enterprise.

I put it on a shuttle.

- You hid it in a shuttle.

- Yes.

- And...

- No.

This is the USS Franklin, sir.

Can you believe it?

The first Earth ship capable of warp 4.

It went missing in the Gagarin radiation belt

in the early 2160s.

I remember that from the Academy.

Captain Balthazar Edison,

- Aye.

one of the first heroes of Starfleet.

How the hell did this ship end up here?

There's a lot of theories, sir.

Surrendered to the Romulans,

Captured by a giant green space hand.

This far out, it's got to be

a wormhole displacement.

Can she fly?

She's missing a few driver coils

and the EPS conduits are fried

but Jaylah has done a marvelous job

of getting the ship's system back online.

- Thank you, Montgomery Scotty.

- Pardon me.

Mr. Chekov, can you

plug in the coordinates.

See if you can track the crews location

from the ship's sensors?

Aye, Captain.

He likes that seat.

Mr. Scott, tour.

Yes, the mess hall.

Jaylah, if you will.

Yes.

No clue what happened

to the crew, huh?

No, sir.

They'd be dead 100 years by now.

Is that a...?

That's a PX-70.

Wow.

My dad used to have one

when he was a kid.

My mom said he'd...

put her at the back

and then drive her nuts.

Sir.

Um

So, you tell me this thing's

been here this whole time and ...

no one's ever noticed it?

She has rigged up

image reflectors.

Here.

Right.

Some sort of holographic camouflage.

Aye, sir.

Captain!

I intercepted a weak communication

transmission, sir,

It's a Starfleet frequency.

TRANSMISSION DETECTED

Can you lock onto the signal?

Yes, but how do we get to them?

I have an idea, sir,

but I'm going to need your permission.

Why would you need my permission?

Because if I mess up,

I don't want it to be just my fault.

McCoy and Spock to Enterprise crew.

Come in, Enterprise crew.

Anyone?

Come on, Spock.

Come on, you can make it!

Leaving me behind will significantly

increase your chances of survival, Doctor.

Well, that's damn chivalrous of you

but completely out of the question.

It is imperative that you

locate any surviving crew.

There I was thinking you care.

Of course I care about you.

I always assumed

my respect for you is clear.

The dialogue we have had

across the years has always...

It's okay, Spock.

You don't have to say it.

Well, at least I won't die alone.

Well, that's just typical.

COME ON, YOU BASTARDS!

Oh.

Good to see you

in one piece, Doctor.

Oh, am I?

I felt like my entrails

been to a barn dance.

I believe these old transporters

were only ever used for cargo

but a few modifications

seemed to do the trick.

I thought it was best to

beam you one at a time though.

- You know, in case you got... spliced.

- Oh.

I couldn't imagine a worse scenario.

Good to have you back.

You alright?

Yeah, I'm fine.

He's hurt.

I am functioning adequately, Captain.

In a pigs eye, you are.

Captain, we discovered that the stolen

artifact appears to have come from this planet.

Damn it, Spock!

- Are there any medical supplies in this thing?

- This way.

Alright.

Lie down, come on.

There you go.

How are we going to

get out of this one, Spock?

We got...

no ship, no crew.

Not at this odds.

We will do what

we have always done, Jim.

We will find hope in the impossible.

- Let's get you patched up first, okay?

- Captain.

You must focus your efforts

at helping the crew.

Well, that's why

I need you around, Spock.

This thing are from

the dark ages.

Close.

I am pretty sure

this is a protoplaser.

It should stop the internal haemorrhaging.

At least that's my hope.

The miserable have no other medicine

but only hope.

Death's door and he is quoting Shakespeare.

Captain's Log, Stardate 2263.2

We have searched the wreckage.

He must have hidden it elsewhere.

The further we go,

the more I found myself wondering:

All we have is his crew, Krall.

You!

Tell me where it is.

Now!

No!

Stop!

No!

Let him go and I will

give you what you want.

No!

Syl, don't!

Lieutenant.

Unity is not your strength.

It is your weakness.

We should wait until

we are absolutely sure.

No, we have to get

the crew back, now.

Chekov has the coordinates that

can lead us to Krall's base, so we go.

With respect, sir,

how do we know that

Krall was at the base

when she called him.

And even if he was, we don't know

if the crew was with him.

Or if he's still alive.

Mr. Chekov, can you reconfigure

the search parameters

in order to compensate

for this formula?

Aye, Commander.

But what is this formula?

It is Vokaya, Mr. Chekov.

A mineral unique to Vulcan

which emits low level radiation.

I'll have to filter out

all other energy emissions.

Spock, what the hell would a Vulcan

mineral be doing way out here?

Where are you going with this?

Lieutenant Uhura wears a Vokaya amulet

which I presented to her

as a token of my

affection and respect.

You gave your girlfriend

a radioactive jewelery?

The emissions is harmless, Doctor.

But it's unique signature

makes it very easy to identify.

You gave your girlfriend

a tracking device?

That was not my intention.

I'm glad he doesn't respect me.

I am detecting a weary

trace amount of Vokaya.

Does the location match the coordinates

you acquired from Kalara, Mr. Chekov?

It is a match, sir.

It's presence suggest that Lieutenant Uhura

and thereby the rest of the crew

are being held at

Krall's base of operation.

Can you beam them out?

No, sir.

There is some geological interference

that is blocking

the transporter signal.

Well, I guess we are going to have to go

and break them out the old fashion way.

You cannot go to this place.

Everyone who goes there, he kills.

You've been there?

You've seen it?

Well, why didn't you say something, lassie?

Because I knew you will ask me

to take you there.

If your friends are there

then they will die,

just like my family.

And I will not go back

to that death place.

Aye. But, if you escaped then you can

show us the way in and the way out.

No!

This is not the deal we made,

Montgomery Scotty.

If you choose to do this,

you are on your own.

Wait, wait.

Wait.

Let her go.

She's lost people too, Captain.

Wait, that's our friends out there, lassie,

and I can't just leave them behind.

Now, we could really use your help.

We just need you to be brave, that's all.

When we were in that place...

Krall would come in take someone.

There were screams,

I can still hear them.

And we would not

see that person again.

We did not know

who would be next.

My father planned an escape.

But we were seen by...

by the one they call Manas.

My father fought him

so I could get out.

He was brave...

and Manas killed him.

What you want is impossible.

Bat, maybe it's not.

Now, me granny used to say:

"You cannot break a stick in a bundle."

You're a part of something bigger now, lassie.

Right.

Don't you give up on that.

Because we're sure as hell

never give up on you.

That is what being part

of a crew is all about.

Is that what you believe in, James T?

All I know is, we stand

a better chance with you.

The digging machines uncover the tunnel

that goes into the crater.

That's how I got out.

Oh, so that'll be our way in.

The away team will be on the

other side of the tunnel,

fall into Krall's base, get inside

the building and break out the crew.

Uh, Captain, we cannot locked on

to anyone inside the crater

in order to beam them out.

Oh, I could rigged up pulse beacons

as pattern enhancers.

- That will get the signal over the crater.

- Alright.

How many people can Franklin

transport at the time?

With a wee modifications,

20 max.

But I'm not sure

how long it will hold out.

Bones, Mr. Chekov, Jaylah,

you will be in the away team.

Mr Scott, modify that transporter

then do everything you can

to get this ship operational.

Captain, Mr. Chekov's technical acumen

makes him more valuable

onboard the Franklin than Mr. Scott.

It's thereby logical that

I would replace him.

Why is that logical, Spock?

You just got back on your feet.

Lieutenant Uhura is in that facility, Jim.

I'll keep an eye on him.

Understood.

His soldiers are everywhere.

We won't pass unseen.

What we require is a diversion.

I think I have an idea.

This is Abronath.

It was used by the ancient ones

as a weapon.

But when they could not

control it's deadly power

they... split it into two

and ejected the halves into space.

Hoping it will be lost forever.

But I am grateful.

I have spent lifetimes searching for

and only to have

you find it for me.

The poetry of fate.

The world that I was born into...

is very different from yours, Lieutenant.

We knew pain, we knew terror.

Struggle, made us strong.

Not peace, not unity.

These are myths the Federation

would have you believe.

Those are strong words.

You might even believe them.

But there's something else

going on with you.

Something underneath.

Uhura!

Wait.

What are you doing with her?

You already got what you want

and let her go!

No!

Manas, it's time.

The Federation has pushed the

frontier for centuries but no longer.

This is where it begins, Lieutenant.

This is where the frontier

pushes back.

This way.

Where is she?

I got to admit, that's a hell of a distraction.

Your friends are over there.

Come on.

Let me deal with them.

You've brought us this far.

Finish the mission, Krall.

Go!

Commander.

Uhura, he took her.

Get the remainder

of the crew to safety.

Come on.

Let's go, move.

Get up there.

- I've got them, Mr Scott.

- Okay, Mr. Chekov, increase the signal.

- We are going to grab them 20 at a time.

- Aye.

Let's hope this doesn't get messy.

Energize!

Spock.

What are you doing here?

Clearly,

I am here to rescue you.

Let's go.

Good to see you, wee-man.

You will die here...

just like your father.

10 seconds until transporters recharged, Doctor.

- Wait for my signal.

- Doctor!

Damn it, man,

we're not leaving without them!

Come on, let's go!

Let's move! Let's move!

Let's go!

Come on!

We are ready for you next, Captain,

just turn on your beacon.

- Scotty, do you have everybody?

- Aye, sir.

Everyone except you and Jaylah.

Hit the beacon

and we'll grab ya.

Now they will leave you... here.

Captain, your beacon!

- There it is!

- Energize!

Jaylah, now!

Okay.

Let's never do that again.

I agree, James T.

You, alright?

Captain this thing he has...

Yorktown.

He's going to destroy Yorktown.

You take my house...

and you make it fly.

Scotty, can you get this thing started?

Well start it, yes.

Flying, sir.

That's a different thing.

These old vessels,

they were built in space.

They were never supposed

to take off from atmosphere.

Make it happen.

They are called Starships

for a reason, Captain.

What?

You tell me this now?

Because I didn't want to disappoint you.

You know, in case you didn't make it back.

- How thoughtful, Mr. Scott.

- Captain.

He's launching.

The attack on Yorktown may be

just the beginning.

Armed with this bioweapon,

he could rid of all life

and use the base's advanced

technology to attack

an untold number of Federation planets.

We'll just going to have to

get this thing flying.

We can't just jump start it, sir.

Okay, all systems online.

Dilithium chambers

at 70% and climbing.

Primary subwarp engines standing by.

Mr. Sulu.

You can...

You know... fly this thing, right?

You kidding me, sir?

Fantastic.

Scotty, how are we looking?

Ready as she'll ever be, sir.

That's what I like to hear, alright.

Bones, where are we with the crew?

I could use a functioning med bay,

but otherwise we are secured down here.

Mr. Sulu.

We have to achieve terminal velocity

in order for the stabilizers

to provide lift.

Are you sure this drop

is high enough to do that?

We'll find out.

Call it, Mr. Sulu.

Aye aye, Captain.

Mr. Chekov, be ready to hit

the forward stabilizers full

on my mark.

One quarter impulse.

Right.

One half impulse, Mr. Chekov.

Aye.

We should belt up, go on.

Go, go, go. Go.

Easy, Mr. Sulu.

Let's not break her in half.

Anytime, Mr. Sulu!

NOW, MR. CHEKOV!

I have red alert

on incoming vessel.

No reply at all frequency

ID request.

Visual.

Red alert!

Red alert!

Look how far they've come.

Please proceed to designated

safety zones immediately.

Please proceed to designated

safety zones immediately.

Mayday. Mayday.

Commencing emergency...

I'm picking up distress signals from

every frequency coming from Yorktown.

Krall's already starting his attack.

Mr. Scott, what kind of weapons

do we have?

We have pulse phase cannons

and spatial torpedoes.

Great.

Lock and load.

That does not matter.

You cannot defeat the bees.

Maybe...

maybe we lure them away.

How do we get Yorktown time

to get people to safety?

We are on horse and buggy

compared to these things.

We're barely holding together

as it is, Captain.

Captain.

The flight patterns of bees are

determined by individual decisions.

Krall's swarm formations are

too complex not to rely on

some form of unified

cyberpathic coordination.

- I surmise that if we could...

- Spock, skip to the end.

What he's saying is that if we disorient

the swarm, we can kick it's ass.

Precisely.

Scotty, can you beam me onto

one of those swarm ships?

Have you gone completely mad?

- Yes or no?

- No.

Yes.

Maybe.

Captain, my familiarity of

the interior of those ships,

however brief, makes me

more qualified for this away mission.

Spock, you're still hurt.

She's right, Spock.

I acknowledge and respect your concerns.

Perhaps you will feel more confident

if I were accompanied by someone

with familiarity of both the ship

and my injury.

He's going to love this.

You want me to do what?

- Come along, Doctor.

- Whoa, wait a minute.

Why you green-blooded ingrate.

This was your idea.

It's a good idea, Bones.

You know, next time

you have a piece of pipe

stuck in your trousers,

call a plumber.

Just make sure you find a way

to break those things.

If it gets heady,

I'll beam you straight back.

Energize.

You're going to be great!

Damn it, Jim.

I'm a Doctor, not a ...

You do realize the last time I flew

one of these things, we crashed.

So don't blame me if I...

Whoa!

... hit something.

Spock to Franklin.

Spock, we read you.

Captain, from what I can ascertain,

the ships do indeed

shared a cyberpathic link

which coordinates their actions.

Patching it through now.

That's why they're signalize.

They weren't jamming us,

they were talking to each other.

How do we get them

to stop talking?

What about...

electromagnetic focusing?

We can use the transporters

to disturb their network.

The focus might be too specific.

If we can plant some sort of disruptive

communication signal inside the swarm

it might inversely effect

their capacity to coordinate.

It will have to be the frequency

they will not anticipate.

It will cause a chain reaction that

will wipe out the whole swarm.

Sir, a closed network like that might

be susceptible to very high frequency.

VHF.

Radio.

We can-We can broadcast

something from the ship

to drown out their links.

Something loud and distracting.

Loud and distracting?

I've got just the thing.

Do not break my music.

Break it?

You're getting an upgrade.

The swarm ships are 60 seconds

from breaking through.

I just got to reconfigure the VHF

output into a multiphasic sweep.

- Let me do it.

- Nah, lassie.

Let he do it.

Ah, you do it.

There, see?

- Simple.

- Alright.

Captain, we're ready to broadcast.

The signal won't travel far,

we have to get closer.

How close?

- Very.

- Intercept course, Mr. Sulu.

- Put us right in the middle of that thing.

- Yes, sir.

My old friend.

The swarm ships are doubling back,

they are forming an attack wave, sir.

Alright, we got their attention.

Hold steady, Mr. Sulu.

Brace yourselves, everybody.

Spock, standby to

drop out of formation.

- Scotty, all queued up back there?

- Aye, sir.

Ready to broadcast at 57.7 MHz.

- Made your choice, lassie?

- I'll have the beat and shouting.

Let's make some noise.

Sabotage - BEASTIE BOYS

That's a good choice.

Sir, we now have

the distraction frequency.

Broadcast!

♪ Listen all of y'all

♪ Listen all of y'all

it's a sabotage ♪

You alright, Spock?

We are fine, Captain.

But there are still three ships

heading into Yorktown.

That's got to be Krall.

Keep on him, Spock.

Do whatever it takes to stop him

from using that weapon.

My house is breaking!

There is mass depolarization

of the hull plating.

I can reroute the power from

the dilithium chamber, I need help.

I will need you, Jaylah.

Let's go!

Do not lose them, Doctor.

You are more than welcome

to switch places with me, Spock.

Captain, intercepting all three ships

is an impossibility.

Give me schematic of Yorktown!

There, Yorktown headquarters.

Mr. Chekov, can you do

a bioscan on central plaza?

Aye.

They are clearing civilians.

Bones, there's a city plaza coming up.

You got to make sure

Krall heads for it.

- Why?

- Just do it!

Sulu, get us up there!

Hold on to something!

Great work, Bones.

Thanks, Jim.

Now I just got to

figure out how to land.

Captain, I have 3 hull breaches

from the impact.

Deck 3, the cargo bay

and the engine room.

Alright, Sulu, Chekov,

check the cargo bay and deck 3.

We need confirmation that the weapon

has been neutralized and Krall is dead.

Captain.

It's Krall.

We've seen him do this.

It's some kind of energy transfer,

and it physically changes him.

He must still be on board.

No one's seen him leave.

Sulu, contact Yorktown security.

And lockdown the ship.

Let's go.

Its about damn time

Captain.

- It's about damn time.

- ... the frontier.

- Its about damn time

- Watch the frontier.

- It's about damn time

- Watch the frontier.

- It's about damn time

- Watch the frontier.

Frontier.

Frontier.

It's him.

Scotty, I need you to

link into Franklin database.

Find out what you can

about Balthazar Edison.

- What? The Captain of the Franklin?

- Yeah.

- Sir, he'd be long dead.

- No, he's not!

I don't know how,

but Edison is Krall!

What did you find?

Well, his records goes back way before

the Federation even exist .

He was a major in the United Earth

Military Assault Command Operation. (MACO)

- A lot of off-world combat.

- He was a soldier.

Aye, sir.

And a pretty good one.

His military service came to an end

when MACO was disbanded.

- Why? What happened ?

- The Federation, sir, Starfleet.

We're not a military agency.

They made him a captain

and gave him the Franklin.

- Scotty, bring up his logs.

- Aye, sir.

Captain's Log...

Last entry.

Captain's Log....

I don't remember the Stardate.

All distress calls unanswered.

Of the crew...

only 3 remain.

I WANT TO LIVE!

The indigenous race abandoned

this planet long ago.

They left behind sophisticated mining

equipment and a drone workforce.

They have some sort of...

technology that prolongs...

life.

I will do whatever it takes

for me and my crew.

The Federation do not

care about us.

You probably will

never see me again.

But if you do...

Be ready.

Why has he not

used his weapon yet?

Because he wants to find somewhere

to inflict maximum damage.

He needs a distribution system.

You have to circulate air here, right?

Aye, sir. There's a atmospheric regulator

near the core.

Lieutenant, contact Yorktown.

- Make sure they shut it

down until we find Krall.

- Yes.

How will he access the core?

Well, there is a maintenance tower

at the station's gravitational nexus.

That's the only way.

Scotty, you get over there and

make sure it gets shutdown.

Lassie, you're with me.

Look, this thing is impossible

to shut down.

Alright, well.

We'll see about that.

Mr. Scott,

why is that thing still on?

We're working on that, sir,

but as you can imagine

there's a lot of safety protocols

surrounding the thing that,

you know, keeps everybody alive.

Figure something out!

Be careful, Captain.

Gravity is going to get a bit screwy

the closer you get to the center.

Maybe we should scan

the operations schematics.

- See if there is a backdoor.

- Right.

Lassie, I'm going to need your eyes.

Don't!

What happened to you out there...

Edison?

Edison?

I have to say, Kirk.

I missed being me.

We lost ourselves,

but gained a purpose.

It means to bring the galaxy

back to the struggle that

made humanity strong.

I think you underestimate humanity.

I fought for humanity!

We lost millions to the Xindi

and Romulan wars.

And for what?

For the Federation to sit me

in the captain's chair.

and break bread

with the enemy!

We change.

We have to.

Or we'll spend the rest of our lives

fighting the same battles.

You lost!

No way you can

make it back there.

Give up!

What?

Like you did?

I read your ship's log.

Captain James T. Kirk.

At least I know

what I am!

I'm a soldier.

You won the war, Edison.

You gave us peace!

Peace...

is not what

I was born into.

- Scotty.

- Captain.

He's using the gravitational slipstream

to carry him back to the center.

No.

No!

- What's that?

- The weapon's in the chamber.

Captain we have to stop

the processor now

or everything breathing

in Yorktown is dead.

You can't stop it.

You will die.

Better to die saving lives...

than to live with taking them.

That's what I was born into.

- Scotty.

- Captain, I think we can redirect it.

There's a seal construction hatch that

will let you vent the weapon into space.

Now we can override the

locks from up here,

but you'll have to

activate the hatch.

- I just have to hit a button.

- It's not a button, sir.

It's a simple lever

under a white panel.

- Got it.

- And there's 4 of them.

Once you open the hatch,

you've to exit the chamber immediately.

If the hatch is open when the

processor recycles and you are in it

you are going to get

sucked into space.

What happens when

the hatch isn't opened?

You are going to get

sucked into big fan,

with the weapon

and we all die.

Damn it, Jim,

you won't make it out on time!

The vent.

Get out of there, James T!

Scotty, the last hatch won't open!

Scotty!

Work fast, Captain.

Time is running out.

He's not going to make it.

Whoa.

Oh, oh.

Manual override engage.

What would I do without you, Spock?

For decades, the Federation

thought that he was a hero.

I guess time

would judge us all.

He just got lost.

You saved this entire base, Kirk.

Millions of souls.

Thank you.

It wasn't just me.

Never is.

Needless to say, the position

of Vice Admiral is yours.

No one deserves it more.

Vice Admirals don't fly, do they?

No, they don't.

No offense, ma'am,

but...

where's the fun in that?

PROPERTY OF

AMBASSADOR SPOCK

You didn't even try to get

our time out here reduced?

Why would I get it reduced?

Bones, we know our way

through the nebula now.

Can you imagine

what we'll find?

Alien despots,

hell bent on killing us.

Deadly space spawn viruses and bacteria.

Incomprehensible cosmic anomalies

that could wipe us out in an instant.

It's going to be

so much fun.

By the way, where're we going?

I thought we were going to get a drink.

I know you told me

to keep it under wraps, but...

- Happy birthday!

- Happy birthday!

Mr. Sensitive?

- There you go.

- Thanks, Scotty.

Everybody, raise your glass

to Captain James T. Kirk.

- Captain Kirk.

- Captain Kirk!

Thanks, everybody.

- To the Enterprise.

- To the Enterprise.

And... to absent friends.

- Cheers.

- Here-here.

Alright, let's get this party started.

Who's round is it?

Can I get 3 Romulan ales, for me.

I thought you have to

finish your mission report.

I do.

But I thought it would be more pleasing

to engage with you socially.

You old romantic.

Do you know that scotch was actually

invented by a little lady in Russia?

- Oh. Excuse me.

- Not many people knows.

Uh. Did you drink all those yourself?

I'm impressed.

Someone said it will

take my edge off.

My edge is still not off.

Alright.

Well, maybe this will help.

The captain, pulled a few strings.

That is acceptance into Starfleet Academy,

if you want it.

We have a lot rules.

No less, no more.

Will I have to wear that uniform?

I'm afraid so.

Hey, Keenser.

Kevin.

Still not wearing pants, I see.

I heard about Ambassador Spock.

Is that what you want to mention

in that... time in the turbolift?

More or less.

I trust your meeting with

Commodore Paris went well.

More or less.

You really want to head back

out there, huh?

Space: the final frontier.

These are the voyages

of the starship Enterprise.

It's continuing mission:

to explore strange new worlds.

to seek out new life

and new civilizations,

to boldly go

where no one has gone before.
