Star Trek: Enterprise (2001–2005): Season 2, Episode 1 - Shockwave, Part II - full transcript

Captain Archer and temporal agent Daniels have been stranded in the 31st century. In a library they investigate the damage to the time line and try to find way a to get Archer back in his own century. Meanwhile Silik the Suliban l...

Last time on Enterprise...

SATO:
There's nothing left.

No buildings, no trees,
no people.

That's impossible.

There were 3,600 colonists.

The mission's been canceled.

I can't believe you're
letting them do this to us.

You've waited all your life
to command this ship.

DANIELS:
History never
recorded the disaster.

Someone violated
the Temporal Accord...

someone who doesn't want
your mission to succeed.



Are you telling me
that Enterprise

didn't cause that explosion?

He brought me back ten months.

But I knew everything
I know now.

How is that possible?

ARCHER:
The Suliban destroyed
that colony.

We're going back to get proof.

Have your ships bring me Archer.

T'POL:
Captain Archer

is no longer aboard Enterprise.

I thought he was smarter
than this.

He could have saved
all your lives.

It's targeting our warp core.

DANIELS:
You're in the 31st
century, Captain.



If bringing me here caused this,
then send me back.

I'll take my chances with Silik.

Y-You don't understand.

The time portals...

They've been destroyed.

Everything's been destroyed.

There's no way to send you back.

And now, the conclusion.

He's not on board.

You must have sensors
that can confirm that.

You've lied to me before.

If you don't tell me
where he is,

I'll have no alternative
but to...

Come see for yourself...
or send your soldiers.

You'll realize
I'm telling the truth.

Drop out of warp
and prepare to be boarded.

Security teams

to Docking Ports 1, 2 and 3.

This is Subcommander T'Pol.

All security teams remain
where you are.

Are you crazy?

How do we know

how many Suliban
are coming aboard?

They could try
to take over the ship.

There are 30 armed vessels
surrounding us.

Unless I'm mistaken,

their weapons are still
targeting our warp core.

Mr. Reed?

So, unless

you have a better suggestion...

ARCHER:
If this place was destroyed

as long ago
as it seems to have been,

then what are you doing here?

You and your "watchdog" buddies

don't exactly
fit in with all this.

You're thinking of time travel

like we're in some
H.G. Wells novel.

We're not.

It's far more complicated.

There's no way for
you to understand.

Try me.

Listen, I realize
your little utopia is gone

and I sympathize,

but, if you're telling me
the truth,

if you've brought me 800 years
into the future...

Into this future...

I think I deserve some answers.

I don't have any answers.

And you're right.

I shouldn't be here.

Which means you shouldn't
be here, either,

but you are.

We are.

( laughs)

We brought you here

to protect the timeline.

( laughs)

We did quite a job.

What's wrong?

It's gone.

What's gone?

The monument.

It was right here...

on the same street
as the library.

It was obviously never built.

Why is that a problem?

Who did it commemorate?

Not who.

Then what?

An organization.

A Federation.

It doesn't exist for you,
not-not yet.

But it will?

Fine.

Keep your missing
monument to yourself.

Where's this library
you were talking about?

Uh, it should be
right down there...

if it was ever built.

And even it was,
it will be of no help.

All the data is stored
electronically.

Books...

made with paper.

There aren't supposed
to be books here.

Well, there are.

So, I suggest we
use some of them

to figure out what you did

to the last thousand years

when you brought
me here this morning.

They haven't been duplicated.

Is he correct?

T'POL:
Don't you believe your scanners?

Is he correct?

We didn't have time
to make a copy.

Leave her alone!

Lower your weapon.

If we find

Captain Archer aboard
this vessel,

you'll all be...
punished for lying to me.

He's not here.

Unless he's dead.

But we did find this.

Where?

In that lift.

It's an hour old, maybe two.

When I saw him last,
your Captain spoke

of a "Temporal
Cold War."

What was he talking about?

Captain Archer believed

Crewman Daniels was
from the future,

but if I recall...

you killed him.

What else?

Nothing else.

There's a temporal

signature in your turbolift.

What do you know of that?

The last time
we saw Captain Archer,

he was entering that turbolift.

Perhaps you haven't
been lying to me.

You, shut down all com systems
and computer terminals

with the exception
of Engineering and the Bridge.

Confine all of them
to their quarters.

If anyone resists...

Understood.

Hey!

Under the circumstances,

it would be best
to do what he says, Commander.

They're three days overdue.

I told you, Ambassador,

Archer said
he was returning with proof

that they weren't responsible
for the tragedy on Paraagan II.

You also told me

Starfleet had ordered him

to deliver Subcommander T'Pol
and his Medical Officer

to the Vulcan ship D'kyr.

They're three days overdue.

The D'kyr has
long-range sensors.

Have they detected Enterprise?

Captain Archer's negligence
caused the death

of 3,000 colonists.

Your superiors instructed them

to return to Earth.

Their mission is over.

They haven't followed
those instructions.

You didn't answer
the Commander's question.

Has your ship
detected Enterprise?

The D'kyr said they were joined

by a number of other vessels.

They're no longer
within sensor range.

What kind of vessels?

They were at too great
a distance to identify.

Enterprise has ignored our hails

and defied Starfleet's orders.

I have no choice

but to send the D'kyr
in pursuit.

Jonathan Archer
doesn't report to you.

No, he doesn't.

But Subcommander T'Pol does.

And since she would never comply

with his present actions,

I have to conclude
that she's being held

against her will.

I know you don't think much
of Archer, Ambassador,

but he is not in the habit
of kidnapping Vulcans.

ADMIRAL FORREST:
Fine.

You send your ship.

Whatever Archer's up to,

I'm sure he's got a good reason.

He knows what he's doing.

Does he really?

Have you cycled through
the sub-temporal harmonics?

He's never failed
to respond before.

Perhaps he's angry that we
didn't return with Archer.

Archer wasn't on Enterprise.

Why isn't he responding?

I need instructions.

He said to destroy Enterprise

if we couldn't bring him Archer.

We should tow them out
of the nebula and do it now.

That temporal signature,
it changes everything.

If Archer was pulled
through time,

we need new instructions.

Where is he?

If he's angry with you,
you'll be punished again.

We should destroy Enterprise.

Have the surgeons prepare,
then bring me the Vulcan.

I haven't found
a single reference

to this Federation
you talked about.

I doubt you will.

Because that monument
wasn't there?

Because you weren't there.

So I disappear one day

and all history changes?

I've looked through the
21st and 22nd centuries.

Everything looks right,

up until the Warp 5 Program.

After that, nothing looks right.

There were a lot
of people involved

in the Warp 5 Program.

We didn't bring a lot
of people here this morning.

We just brought you.

The Romulan Star Empire?

What's that?

Maybe you shouldn't
be reading that.

I don't get it.

What could I have done

that could have been
so important?

It wasn't just you.

It was events you
helped set in motion.

This timeline...

The one you say
no longer exists...

What can you tell me about it

if my mission had continued?

It would have led to others.

And?

( sighs):
Okay.

What about this Federation?

Was Earth part of it?
Was I part of it?

Silik wanted you,
not the data disks.

The people he answered to
were more interested

in capturing Jonathan Archer
than in blaming Enterprise

for the destruction
of the colony.

They obviously knew

what role you were going to play

in the months or years to come.

By taking you away

from the 22nd century,

I caused exactly
what I was trying to prevent.

You've lost me.

The only chance I have
of restoring my century

is by getting you back to yours.

Sounds like you've got
a chicken-or-the-egg problem.

You said
your time portals are gone...

All your technology.

There isn't even
electricity here.

You going to find a bicycle,

turn it into a time machine?

Maybe we don't need
a time machine.

Do you have your communicator?

And my scanner.

May I?

The people the Suliban
were working for

came from about 300 years ago.

They couldn't travel
through time,

but they did develop a way

to send back images
of themselves...

To communicate through time.

You can't do that with those.

No. It's a little bit

more complicated, but not much.

We learned how to do it
in high school.

But we're going to need
a few things

that might not be
too easy to find.

What are we waiting for?

Where is Archer?

I don't know.

Who are you working with
from the future?

The Vulcan Science
Directorate has determined

that time travel is impossible.

Does Captain Archer agree
with that opinion?

It's not an opinion.

Does Archer agree
with that determination?

Captain Archer believes

Crewman Daniels comes
from the future.

But Daniels is dead.

Captain Archer claims
he saw Daniels two days ago.

Your Captain is gone.

Did Daniels take him into
the past or the future?

The Vulcan Science Directorate
has determined

that time travel is impossible.

( sighs)

I can't be sure,
but I think that's copper.

Well done.

I need you to unwrap it
and pound it into small strips

no more than a millimeter thick.

( static)

( heavily distorted voice)

Hello?

( distorted voice)

Please repeat.
I can't understand.

( distorted voice)

I still can't understand you.

Try modulating
the sub-carrier wave.

Malcolm, it's ( static)
Can you hear me?

Barely.

You're going to need
to boost the signal.

Any better?

Yeah.

I thought the com was off-line.

It is.

I'm routing the signal
through the EPS grid.

I can talk to any doorbell
on B-Deck.

Are you all right?

Same as you, I guess.

Locked in tight.

And the others?

I can't get in contact
with T'Pol for some reason

and Hoshi and Travis
are on C-Deck.

Any thoughts about how
we're going to get rid

of these Suliban?

One step at a time.

The first thing I need to do

is figure out
how to tap into the door-coms

on C-Deck.

I'll get back to you.

Sit tight.

I wasn't planning
on going anywhere.

Any luck?

I still have the spatial
coordinates of Enterprise,

but, without a quantum
discriminator,

it's going to be very tricky

to contact the ship
on the same day you left.

I thought you built
these things in high school.

Where quantum discriminators
were on every desk.

Why is the same day
so important?

What would be wrong
with making contact

a week before I left
or even a month before?

I made the biggest mistake

in the history of time travel
this morning.

I don't intend
to make it any worse.

( shivering)

This is Captain Archer.

Can you hear me?

T'Pol, this is Captain Archer.

Can you hear me?

I don't think it's working.

( faintly):
I don't know where he is.

You don't know where who is?

Subcommander,
this is Captain Archer.

I'm having trouble
understanding you.

Captain Archer's gone.

A temporal reading
in the turbolift.

I don't know where he is.

Daniels brought me
to the future.

That's what the temporal
reading was all about.

Are you all right?

Science Vulcan Directorate
has determined

that time travel is...

not fair.

Whatever you say.

Just tell me, are you all right?

We're all confined
to our quarters.

Where are you?

I told you, in my quarters.

No, I mean Enterprise.

Where's Enterprise?

There's a Helix out my window.

T'Pol, listen to me.

I need your help.

You're going
to have to find a way

to get into Daniels' quarters.

Do you understand me?

You're on the ceiling.

Why aren't you on a monitor?

There's no technology
where I am.

I thought you said
you were in the future.

T'Pol, do you remember
when I asked you

to keep an open mind?

Yes.

There's a lot more

at stake here

than bringing me back
or the mission.

I need you to listen to me
very carefully.

I need you to trust me.

It won't work.

We can only access
the decoupling pins

from outside our quarters.

So if we can't pick the locks...

what about the shafts
that house the EPS conduits?

They're adjacent
to the air ducts.

They were pretty much blocked
off when the ship was completed.

It would be too tight a squeeze.

What's your definition
of "too tight"?

You or I couldn't
get through them.

Maybe a child, or...

Or Hoshi?

It's possible,
but it would be difficult.

What do you say, Hoshi?

You willing to give it a try?

Isn't there some other way
that I can help out?

Something that needs
translating?

You know how
claustrophobic I am.

There's no one else that can get
through those crawlspaces

unless we could reach
Crewman Naiman.

She's pretty small.

There's no time.

If this is going to work,
we need to begin now.

Ensign Sato?

How far would I have to go

to get to the doctor's quarters?

40 meters, maybe 45.

Then how far
to Lieutenant Reed's?

TUCKER:
It's not that
far, Hoshi.

You can do it.

We need you to do it.

( two knocks)

( three knocks)

Hoshi?

Good guess.

How are you holding up?

Great.

If you don't mind,

I'd just like to
get this over with.

Good luck.

( breathing heavily)

( grunts)

Whatever you're about to say,

I don't want to hear it.

Just get me a shirt.

( muttering)

Third dimension...

Timeline, timeline...

First... second.

Second and...

What are you doing?

First and third dimension...

Stand up, Vulcan.

Up!

No!

No!

No!

No!

Stop!

You certainly took your time.

He had this pressed
against my head.

Had to be sure
they were preoccupied.

You positive
you're willing to do this?

It could get pretty ugly.

I'm positive.

You've got 30 minutes.

Good luck.

If they regain consciousness,

don't hesitate to use these.

Don't worry.

Let's go.

( door opens)

( coughs)

Did you think we wouldn't

be watching Daniels' quarters?

I guess I wasn't thinking.

I guess you weren't.

But you should be thinking now...

Thinking about what
will happen to you

if you don't answer
my questions.

Are you thinking about that,

Lieutenant Reed?

Good.

Now tell me what this is.

What does it do?

I don't know.

What does it do?

I don't know.

Please!

Yes?

I was told to destroy it.

I don't know what it does.

Who told you to destroy it?

( choking)

Captain Archer...

before he left.

He didn't want you to find it.

And why would that be?

He thought you

would use it to contact someone.

I don't know who.

I swear it!

Have the Lieutenant
returned to his quarters.

Ready!

Yes.

( alarm bleeping)

Engineering.

How did this happen?

Engineering!

( intercom beeps)

( intercom beeps)

What is it?

The antimatter stream
has been compromised.

Shut down the warp reactor.

Our engineers aren't responding.

I've sent soldiers.

Keep me informed.

( electrical crackling)

( alarm beeping)

( intercom beeps)

( intercom beeps)

Yes?

These humans are
greater fools than I thought.

They'd rather commit mass
suicide than submit to us.

Did you correct the problem?

It's too late.

The reactor's going to breach.

We can't endanger the Helix.

Evacuate your soldiers

and have Enterprise
towed out of the nebula.

There's very little time.

Will you alert
the tractor teams?

You do it. I'm busy.

Is that you?

Can you hear me?

Report, Ensign.

The antimatter stream
is back to normal.

You may have overdone
your pyrotechnic display.

The scorching
on the starboard nacelle

is extensive.

Well, I'll try to remember that

next time we have
to fake a reactor breach.

( console beeps)

Cell Ships. 30 of them.

35.
Approaching at high warp.

Maintain your course
and speed, Ensign.

I've tried to reach you.

I've tried for two days.

I did what you told me,
but Archer wasn't on Enterprise.

There was some kind
of temporal signature.

I need instructions.

I don't know how
to operate this device.

I need your help.

( distorted voice):
You're an ugly bastard.

I hear you,
but I don't understand.

Repeat what you said. Please.

Repeat what you said.

I said you're an ugly bastard.

You try shape-shifting on me

or pulling one of
your chameleon routines

and I promise you, Silik,
I'll blow your head off.

Has Enterprise left the nebula?

Can you see?
I've brought you Archer!

He's here!
Archer's here!

There's no need to punish me.

Where's my ship, Silik?

They've left.
They're gone.

How many Cell Ships did
you send after them?

Silik!

I don't know...
20, 30...

Well, you're going
to call them off.

And then you're going

to give me those
data disks back.

Now get up.

My soldiers won't let you leave.

Shut up!

Get going!

Hoshi, any sign
of the Vulcan ship?

Not yet.

MAYWEATHER:
Hull plating on
the port-aft

quarter's down.

Alter course
ten degrees starboard.

They're closing.

The lead ships
are overtaking us.

Port hull plating's down.

Ventral plating as well.

Why'd they stop firing?

Why waste ammunition?

They have us surrounded.

Are long-range sensors
still operational?

( console beeping)

No Vulcan ship.

Subcommander?

I see them.

Son of a bitch.

He did it.

( console beeping)

One Cell Ship approaching aft.

Stand down weapons.

Open a channel.

Enterprise to Suliban vessel.

ARCHER:
Go ahead, Enterprise.

Good to hear your voice,
Captain.

Good to hear yours, too.

I feel like I've been away
for a thousand years.

Is everyone all right?

Lieutenant Reed
suffered some minor injuries,

but he's recovering in Sick Bay.

Captain, I'm curious.

Why didn't the other Cell Ships
try to stop you?

I know it's not standard
Starfleet procedure,

but I took a hostage.

By the time he wakes
up, we'll be long gone.

Request permission to dock.

Permission granted.

Captain's Starlog, supplemental.

We've joined
the Vulcan ship D'kyr.

It seems that Starfleet
and the High Command

are eager to discuss
the future of our mission.

SOVAL:
While your explanation of
how you obtained these disks

is somewhat implausible,

it's obvious that Enterprise

was not responsible for
the destruction of the colony.

It may see somewhat
implausible to you, but...

Please allow me
to finish, Captain.

In less
than a single Earth year,

you've engaged
in armed conflicts

with over a dozen species.

You've escalated the conflict

between my people
and the Andorians,

which included the destruction

of one of our most
sacred monasteries.

You helped 89 Suliban
escape from detention.

You may claim to be on
a mission of exploration.

I, however, consider you
reckless and irresponsible.

A danger to the Quadrant.

Regardless of the evidence
presented here,

I plan to advise
the Vulcan High Command

not to change its recommendation
to Starfleet.

Enterprise should be recalled.

You guys have wanted

to scrub this mission
from day one.

We proved to you

that we didn't kill
those 3,600 people,

but you don't want to hear it!

You're pathetic!

That's enough, Commander.

No one's more pleased than I am

that Enterprise wasn't
responsible for the tragedy.

But Ambassador Soval's
argument may be valid.

Starfleet Command

has a difficult decision
to make here.

When I was in

my early 20's on a
trip to East Africa,

I saw a gazelle giving birth.

It was truly amazing.

Within minutes the baby
was standing up...

Standing up on its own.

A few more minutes
and it was walking,

and before I knew it,

it was running alongside
its mother,

moving away with the herd.

Humans aren't like that,
Ambassador.

We may come from the same planet
as those gazelles,

but we're pretty much
helpless when we're born.

It takes us months
before we're able to crawl.

Almost a full year
before we can walk.

Our deep space mission
isn't much different.

We're going to stumble,
make mistakes...

I'm sure more than a few
before we find our footing.

But we're going to learn
from those mistakes.

That's what being human
is all about.

I'm sorry you can't see that.

Your analogy is very
colorful, Captain,

but I question
whether it addresses

the consequences
of your actions.

T'POL:
The concept of learning
from one's mistakes

shouldn't be difficult
for a Vulcan of your wisdom

to understand, Ambassador.

Our ancestors

discovered how to suppress
their volatile emotions

only after centuries
of savage conflict.

You spoke of the destruction
of the monastery.

What about the Vulcan
listening post

that Captain Archer found there?

I would hope that our people
have learned from those events

that using a sacred sanctuary
to spy on others

was a dishonorable practice,
to say the least.

I don't wish to contradict
Captain Archer,

but learning from one's mistakes
is hardly exclusive to humans.

Their mission should be
allowed to continue.

The Command Council
will review the evidence

and listen to what's
been said here today.

I'm sure they'll hear

from the Vulcans as well.

I'll let you know as soon
as there's a decision.

Good luck, Jonathan.

All of you.

( door chimes)

Come in.

I can't be certain,

but Crewman Fuller might
have seen me coming in here.

She tends to be discreet.

( sighs)

What can I do for you?

I think you put it over the top.

Forrest said none of the
others could believe it

when you went to bat for us,

not to mention that little
listening-post lecture

you gave to Soval.

You spoke to the Admiral?

He woke me up in the
middle of the night.

Can you believe that?

I assume with good news.

I think you put it over the top.

I still don't believe
in time travel.

The hell you don't.
