Sir ive got something. On screen. Well, major. Theyre scanning us. Good. Lets hope they take the bait. Sir, theyve locked their disruptors o ous. They havent fired. Which means s ey could be interested in our cargo. Now lets see if you can make them bite. On screen. Identify yourself. M gul ka commander of the cardassian freightergroumall. Who are you . What is your cargo and destination . We are carrying replicator and transporter parts to the dopa system. Youre lying i assure you, captain. Im confiscating your ship andits cargo. On Whose Authority . chuckling on the authority of the klingon empire and the disruptors i have pointed at your vessel. Convincing, wasnt i . Ill let you know. Wait for my signal. Open the cargo bay doors. Doors open. Fire. Weve reached their hull. Theieiimpulse engines are down. Theyre adrift. Excellent. Theyre relocking their disruptors on us. All power to forward shields. Damage . Both shields are down to 20 we cant sustain another hit i think its time to improvise i want all power to the disruptors, now you, get down to the weapons room major just give me a minute. Hurry, major. Quiet. I need to concentrate. Dukat lock targeg. Prepare to fire. You are a magician, major. Theres nothing magical about it. Not when you know klingon transporter codes. It worked. All our people are here i can just imagine that klingon captain explaining this to his superiors. He wont get the opportunity. Was that necessary . Youre the terrorist. You tellme. Weapons secured, sir. Excellent. So is engineering. Well done. Well, major. Quite a prize weve taken. The first klingon bird of prey ever to be captured by cardassia. I think i just found a bigger prize. It looks like weve got the target priorities of all klingon raiders in cardassian space. Ill contact Central Command st my legate title be reinstated effective immediately. Get me Central Command. No, on second thought. This is too important for them. I want to speak to the chairman of the Detepa Council himself on a secure channel. The communication terminals on the bridge are down. But i could reroute it to the captains quarters. Good. Do so. Then make the repairs. I want this ship fully operational as sooooas possible. Ziyal, do you see the phase compensator and the backup plasma manifold . Whats it look like . Perhaps i should go help her. Klingon technology is. Odd. Good idea. Hang on, ziyal. Helps on the way. Understood. Ore valuable than i thought. They contain status reports from klingon ships and outposts throughout cardassian space. With information like this, cardassia could launch a major counterattack againsnsthe klingons. They could but they wont. Why not . Because the Detepa Council has Something Else in mind. Theyve ordered me not to engnge the klingons in any further conflict. Theyvvordered me to return to cardassia prime to resume my. Post as military advisor. I thought thats what you wanted. Itwas. But what is the point of being a military advisor to a government that wont fight . Well, you can change their minds. Convince your fellow cardassians to go on the offensive. Nah, id be wasting my breath. No one wants to fight. There was a time when the mere mention of my race inspired fear. And now. Were a beaten people. Afraid to fight back because we dont want to lose what little is left. Thats not the cardassians i know. What cardassians . Dont you see, major . Theyre paralylyd. Efeated. I am the only cardassian left and if no one else will stand against the klingons. Dukat, think about what youre proposing. I mean, you cant go to war against the whole klingon empire with one bird of prey. Why not . Your people fought against us for 50 years with much less sophisticated weaponry than this and you beat us. Its not the same. The bajoran people were united. We were all fighting for the same goal. You and your crew would be out there alone. Maybe at first, but perhaps our actions would inspire others to join the struggle. Its not that easy, dukat. I know. Which is why i need you. Me . You know how to organize a resistance cell youre an expert in terrorist tactics you have close ties with bajoran and Federation Officials and besides all that, it would give you a chance to do what you were meant to do. Got a job. U mean . On that space station . We both know your talents are being wasted there. Coordinating docking assignments and leading training exercises. On deep space nine youre nothing but a bureaucrat. An administrator. If you come with me, you can be a soldier again. Think about it, major the chance to fight agagnst a superior foe in a righteous cause. D and broken people from a cruel aggressor. You know as well as i do that if cardassia falls bajor is next. Help me stop the klingons before you become their next target. Youre really serious about this. Absolutely look, major, im not asking you to like me im asking you to join me. To fight at my side. You know w wt im doing is right and its what you want to do as well. I know that our past makes it difficult for you to accept me as an ally. I also know that every fiber of your being is telling you to say no, no, no but somewhere, i know theres a yes. You need to listen to that yes. Not for my sake, not for cardassias not even for bajors. But for your sake. Weve completed repairs on the Navigation System and the cloaking device. Good. Well leave as soon as you have it on line. Nerys. I want to show you something. Go ahead, attack me. What are you talking about . Its okay. I know what im doing. Damar showed me a good trick. Try to stab me with the knife. Guess it wasnt such a good trick. The best way to survive a knife fight is to nener get in one. If im going to help my father i have to be prepared for anything. Show me what you did. Please. I know i have a lot to learn. In handtohand combat. I was lucky nono to have to fight when we boarded this ship. I may not be so lucky next time. Chances are you wont be. Fighting the klingons is going to take more than knowing how to fire a rifle or use a knife. You have to learn to be ruthless. You have to learn to hate the klingons. Even more than you hated the breen. Whatever it takes, i will do it but im going to need your help. Youre right. You do need my help. I. Am disappoioied, major. Im not surprised. Tell me. Were you even tempted . Not really. Hmm. I thought i was so eloquent. You had your moments but the fact of the matter is life youre choosing fighting hitandrun, always outgunned living on hate and adrenalin. Its not much of a life, and it eats away at you so that every day a lilile bit of you dies. Very inspiring, major. But i dont have any choice in this no more than you had when you fought against us. No, i dont suppose you do. Hmm. Well. All thats left is for you to o sh me luck. Thats not quite all. Theres still ziyal. What about her . The life youre choosing isnt for her. She deserves better. She deserves to be with hererather. You taught me that. I love her. I know you do go . Where . Shes not welcome on cardassiaorbajor. Thisis the only place she belongs. Thats not true. She could come to deep space nine wititme. Are you serious . Shes a remarkable young woman. Why . Why do you care so much . Because she reminds me of myself. And i dont want her to go through what i went through and neither do you. Just decloaked off the station. Obrien theyre hailing us. Sisko lets find out what they want. Sir, its gul dukat. On a klingon ship . Hes asking permission to dock. When this is all over, ill come back for you. I promise you u at. I know you will. Major. Ill take good care of her. I know. Well, major, it appears that whether you like it or not our lives have become deeply intertwined. That really pleases you, doesnt it . Pleases me . sighing come. Ill show you to your quarters. Welcome back, major. Odo, this is tora ziyal. Gul dukats daughter. Shell be living here on the station with us for a while. Aha . Ill tell you all about it. On pucha. Prepare to meet your ancestors. grunting yelling but the house of mokai will never yield. yells dohcha scree move away, coward. I want to make this kill. You should havavkilled me when my back was turned. I want to see the fear in your eyes. Look closely and youll see your own destruction. You are resilient prey. You are mine now and after death. Sick bay this is holodeck two. Janeway requires medical assistance. Hirogen shell survive. Hirogen 2 what about her neural interface . Stable. Are you sure . There we times when she seemed aware of who she is. Impossible. I was monitoring the crew during the entire simulation. Shall i return her to the klingon simulation . No. Bring her to holodeck one. Ive found another program i want to try. A conflict that took place on her own planet. It should prove. Stimulating. . Wrong . . Wouou it be wrong to kiss . . Seeing i feel like this . . . Would it be wrong to try . . . Would it be wrong to stay . . Here in your arms this way . . Under this starry sky. . . Welcome to le coeur de lion. The first round is with my compliments on one condition you leave the war outside. More escargot for table nine. Jacques, no lady tonight . Well have to see what we can do about that. Forgive my neglecting you. Now, where were we . Im afraid i h he to neglect you again. Excuse me. laughing thats him. Our new commandant . British intelligence believes hes been sent to oversee the occupation of the city. Whats his history . He served with rommel in north africa and schmidt in poland. He is a formidable military strtregist notorious for his cruelty. Well, lets make him feel at home. Send him a bottle of chateau latour. My compliments. Mmmm. I hate to waste good wine. Give him the 36. As you wish. . And i have waited so long . Rong. . Merci. Be generous to claude this evening. Without him, my voice is empty. Good evening. Sing. Tonights performance is over. Now. Remove your hand. Obey me or i will hunt you down and your bones will adorn the bubuhead of my ship. Sit down and play the game. In this setting, we have e ships. We are an ancient race of soldiers intent upon conquering this world. Play the game. Now, now. Whats this . Mademoiselle de neuf will be happy to sing another song. Freshen up. Very well. Commandant karr. You know me. Your reputation precedes you. Im katrine. Le coeur de lion is my establishment. You leave the war outsid the first round is with my compliments e. I wish to speak with her. Alone. Charming gentleman. He is disoririted. Your world is unfamiliar to him. Well, hell be comfortable soon enough. The arms of france are open to all. Ive heard otherwise. What do you mean . I understand there is opposition to our presence here among your citizens. But this is a small city, defenseless. Weve learned to be a little more diplomatic. When this war is over we want to remain on good terms with the victor. Whoever that may be. Whoever that may be. Your city may be defenseless but its crucial to the war. Any ground assault into germany must pass through this province. The resistance will come here. Leave the war outside. Excellent. Commandantntive been informed theres a problem in the engineering section. The warp Plasma Network has become unstable. Whats he talking about . It need not concern you. To the hunt. The hunt . For the resistance. And making the kill. Au revoir. Howd we do . Insufficient for a saturday night. Cs and 81 reich marks. Well, it should be enough to buy an oscillator to extend the range of our radio. Tomorrow morning, i want you to take a little trip to the countryside. Theres a monsieur groleau who has a cottage just past the third bridge. Hes got a wine cellar full of vacuum tubes. Tell him we need a High Frequency oscillator. Offer him 300 francs but dont go any hihier than 500. We have more pressing needs. Such as . Planning on blowing up a german tank . If necessary. Were not trying to build an army here. Maybe its time we did. Three more german battalions have occupied the city and a Panzer Division is Holding Position 11 kilometers away. When the americans arrive and the fighting begins i dont intend to be standing next to a piano singing moonlight becomes you. The americans wont be able to approach this city without our help. If they cant liberate Sainte Claire the assault into germany could fail. We need to be gathering information movements im tired of lighting the nazis cigarettes and laughing at their jokes. We s suld be helping the allies by assassinating these pigs. The moment we start shooting wewexpose ourselves. Right now, no one suspects us and i am not about to risk our entire operation because youve suddenly developed a nervous trigger finger. That is your opinion, madame. Im the leader of the movement and my opinion is the only one that counts, so get the oscillator. Its been a hardrdour years but believe me the third reich is feeling it, too. We just have to hang on a lilile while longer. Word from the americans is going to come any day. Perhaps. Again . Again. Just why is she so adamant . What shes proposing would put us all at risk. Maybe thats her intention. End he m. From the beginning, shes been argumentative and on more than a few occasions shes disobeyeye your direct orders. Shes headstrong typical of the underground. Nevertheless, her behavior has threatened our identities. Shes the only munitions expert we have and she can carry a tune. We need her. Lets keep our eye on her. Have her followed for the next few days. If she is a nazi infiltrator bon jour, madame put it o omy account. chuckling guten tag. You. Halt get off your vehiclele what are you transporting . Proceed to your destination. That i will. That i most certainly will. If the choice were mine you would already be dead. Man on radio . 59 degrees in dover with low fog across the channel. Temperatures are expected to range from a low of 55 degrees to high of 63. I am. broadcast stops damn, im missing it. Our most recent intelligence shows two german armored divisions here and here. And you are listening to the british radio networkrk. This report will be repeated in. 45 seconds. 45 seconds. Heres to english precision. loud knocking were closed. Neelix morning delivery. Janeway youre late. What happened . Oh, a teteatete with a member of the master race. Theyre increasing their patrols. Perhaps its time we chose another courier. Our baker is arousing suspicion. Theres no need to worry. I change my route every day and ive become quite friendly with most of the gestapo. They just love my strudel. Smith a kind thank you to jazzy mcnulty and his band. Now, the weather for today september 22, 1944. In london, skies arereray with a strong chance of afternoon rain. To a high of 71. The northern coast reports heavy rain with strong winds and ocean swells reaching four feet. Devonshire, hartfordshire and sonnenshire e l report rain. Its currently 59 degrees in dover with low fog across the channel. Temperatures are expected to range from a low of 45 degrees to a high of 63. I am reginald smith, and you are listening totohe british radio. Got it. Lets see the code key. Every fifth letter, every third vowel. Use the sunday decryption sequence. Hmmmm. Janeway a. H. C. Straight from allied high command. It must be important. All messages regarding the war are important. Its only a matter of degree. I suppose youre right but do you have to be so logical about everything . In any covert battle, logic is a potent weapon. You might try it sometime. American fourth infantry. Thats two days from now. Require assistance. Disable enemy communications. End message. The german transmitter is housed at their headquarters. That building is surrounded by guards. We cant just waltz in and plant a bomb. Maybe i can help. How . Im upset. I need to see my special friend. Even if it means bothering him at the office. A reconnaissance mission. Ill locate the radio see where the guards are, examine the locks to get us inside. Its too dangerous. If youre caught youll be tortured. You dont know my friend. He would never do anything to harm his own child. Encode a response to allied command. Confirm that weve received their message. Tell them were proceeding according to plan. Man i tried to explain my position. These people are animals. With a broken jaw last night they have no respect for anything. What did he do . Nothing to provoke t tm. Traitorous whore was ist los, fraulein . Ich muss mit ihrem hauptmann sprechen. Kommen sie mit mir. Kommen sie mititir. Hier. Man ever since my days at the university ive admired this painting. And now its mine. Our fellow officers might prefer gold or land trophies of the hunt. But was the hunt fair . Sir . We entered this city with superior firepower against a weakened prey. Do you really deserve these. Prizes . We are german. The german people deserve europe and everything in it. Why . Sir. You question our destiny . Of course not but i want to hear it in your own words. Tell me. Why are we the master race . Our blood is pure. Our people lived and hunted on this land for a thousand years before the degenerate races brought their corruption. Europe must be purified. You, yourself. Are you stronger than these degenerate races . More cunning . Yes, of course. And if you were alone without an Army Supporting you would you continue the hunt . I dodot know what youre trying. You are superior to no one never underestimate your prey or disrespect its abilities. If you do, you will become the hunted. When the opposing army invades this city remember my words. knocking enter. Brigitte im sorry. I know im not supposed to come here. Dont blame him. That i had to see you. I will leave you two alone. Heil hitler. Its all right. The colonel is in a strange mood today. Whats wrong . Is it our child . I dont know. I was dizzy. No i feel better now. Maybe i just needed to see you. Why havent you shown me this place before . I didnt want your neighbors to see you coming here. Knowing were together. I dont care what they think. Its beautiful. Praxiteles, master sculptor of ancient greece. There are only three like this in all of europe. The commandant would have us continue this simulation until we rot. Its pointless. We should begin the hunt. He believes we must learn more about our prey but i have learned enough. Ready your weapon. This way the message theres no time. Soldier over here quickly theyre getting away whistle blowing computer exit holodeck. This neural interface has been damaged. Thats because it took a direct hit when one of your bullets grazed the base of her skull. Ill provide you with another. Install it. Not until ive repaired her injuries. How long . Two fractured vertebrae and a punctured lung another hour at least. Him . Ive stabilized his vital systems but he still has bullet fragments in his shoulder. I will treat him. You might do a better job repairing the muscle lacerations. The last crew member you treated was brought back with internal bleeding. Your c cw is fragile. They fall too easily. What do you expect . Theyve been stabbed, shot, beaten, phasered and batlethed the past three weeks. Hment. What happened . These prey were hunted by turanj. Their injuries are severe. You assured me you would avoid serious head injuries. Another centimeter, the bullet would have penetrated her brain. If you cant keep your people under control put an end to this. The simulations will continue. Activate the holodeck safety protocols. No. It will prevent injuries for everyone. It will also eliminate the challenge. I have had 28 wounded and one fatality in the past 12 hours. Even i cant keep upupwith that. You will keep up or they will die. Their lives are in your hands, doctor. Dont fail them. When that one is ready place him in holodeck two. Lets see how he fares with the klingons. What about her . Send her back to holodeck one. Progress . By cutting through the bulkheads on decks four, five and six meters weve been able to expand both holodeck grids. More. sighs i cant give you any more not without compromising voyagers primary systems. Then compromise them. Look, holodecks require a tremendous amount of energy. Anything more, and well start losing propulsion deflectors, even life support. Ill transfer a supply of power nodules from my vessel. Integrate them into your systems. I want to expand the holoprojectors into all surrounding sections. Replicatatenough emitters for the task. sighs the holoemitters in this corridor are stable. Lets start working on section 19. But first, tell the guard to escort you to engineering that we need more equipment specifically, a typethree isolinear emitter. If he gives you any trouble say i cant complete the assignment without it. I need to go to engineering. We cant continue without another isolinear emitter. Ensign, how did i get here . I transferred you here using the new emitters in this section. I assume youve got a plpl . Half a plan. Lets hear it. Before we can retake the ship weve got to get the crew back. Sier said than done. The great hunters are everywhere you turn. Dont worry. Ive found a way to tap into the sick bay diagnostic c csole. The only catch is. Stand by with the emitter. Im almost done here. The catch, ensign . To engage the bridge control relays. Were shorthanded. I know. Well, weve got a borg on board, dont we . Maybe we can put her to good use. I have been studying voyagers database looking for our next simulation. There are many to choose from. These people have a violent history. I believe i found a worthy prey the borg. When world war ii is over we will recreate a notorious battle i thought you might but if you continue to disobey me this is one hunt you will never see. You nearly destroyed two of my favored prey. You were careless. Ive become impatient. We penetrated thth vessel overcame their defenses and in the moment of the kill, you forced us to stop. Now we play these incessant games. Its time we took our trophies and moved on. R the kill has blinded you like many young hunters. If you took the time to study your prey to understand its behavior, you might learn something. There is nothing to be learned. Youre wrong. Each prey exposes us to another way of life and makes us reevaluate our own. Have you considered our future . What will become of us when we have hunted this territory to exhaustion . We will travel to another part of space a way of life that hasnt changed for a thousand years. Why should it . Species that dont change. Die. Weve lost our way. Weve allowed our predatory instincts to dominate us. We disperse ourselves throughout the quadrant sending ships in all dirececons. Weve become a solitary race, isolated. Were no longer a culture. We have no identity. In another thousand years no one will remember the name hirogen. Our people must come back together combine forces, rebuild our civilization. What of the hunt . The hunt will always continue but in a new way. I intend to transform this ship in timim this technology can be duplicated for other hirogen. These holodecks wiwi allow us to hold onto our past while we face the future. Even if i were persuaded, others wouldnnbe. Then you are with me. I must continue my research
