00:00Previously on Star Trek Discovery.
00:24We have to get the pretendator's power and keep it safe.
00:27This clue is the most important thing in the Federation right now.
00:31We are looking for a very specific manuscript.
00:33It is a handwritten Betazoid text called Labyrinths of the Mind.
00:37Try the Eternal Gallery and Archive.
00:40It's like a bank, but it protects knowledge.
00:42It changes location about every 50 years.
00:44This is where it is now.
00:46The Badlands.
00:47Been there. It's as fun as it sounds.
00:49Scans show a Breen dreadnought heading this way at maximum warp.
00:53You receive this.
00:54Your Federation has captured two fugitives who have incurred an Erega.
00:58Be ready to hand them over upon our imminent arrival.
01:00Those without saying them can allow the Breen to become aware of the progenitor's technology.
01:04Oh, it's you, isn't it?
01:06You are the bloodline, not the Primark.
01:08He can't succeed without you.
01:09Yeah.
01:10Lucky me.
01:11Direct descendant of the Emperor.
01:14Psion of the Breen Imperium.
01:17The Federation's hiding something from you.
01:19A power so great.
01:21You won't need Locke to claim the throne.
01:24And I can get it for you if you take me with you.
01:27If you wish to avoid war, she is my price.
01:30Dr. Velik believed that since the technology could be used to create life, it might also be used to revive the dead.
01:36Bit of a stretch.
01:37Doesn't matter.
01:38What matters is that she thinks it'll bring Locke back.
01:40That's why she's doing this.
01:41We can't give her to them.
01:43There's much to be lost by keeping her.
01:47This is wrong, Michael.
01:49This isn't how her story ends.
02:19The freaking
02:37I can't do it now.
02:41No, I've met her.
02:42I'll fix this.
03:02I promise.
03:12I'll fix this.
03:19I'll fix this.
03:24I'll fix this.
03:42I'll fix this.
03:49Without the Scion, some believe that our claim to the throne has been eradicated.
03:54In fact, it has grown stronger than before.
03:58His murder will galvanize the other factions behind us.
04:02And with the power promised by his joined, we will defeat all who stand against us.
04:08For the Scion!
04:24Apologies, Primark.
04:30I can bring him back to you!
04:38The power we seek created life.
04:42In the words of someone who saw that power, it can also renew life.
04:48That is why we need to find it.
04:51That is why I've come.
04:55I ask to be set free, Primark.
04:59So that I may assist in the noble quest to restore the Scion.
05:15Of course.
05:16We want nothing more than to see our Scion return.
05:29Speak to my soldiers again and I will eviscerate you in front of them.
05:33I don't think your Scion would look very kindly upon that.
05:37Your value to me does not extend beyond your ability to acquire the progenitor's technology.
05:46For your sake, make sure we succeed.
05:49Badlands.
06:06Largest plasma storm in the Quadrant.
06:09Hell of a place to hide a clue.
06:11Oh, it's kind of beautiful in a twisted sort of way.
06:14Lieutenant Galva, what are scans telling us?
06:16Sensors can't penetrate through the storm, but they have a communications beacon out here.
06:22Looks like it's made of the same alloy as the library card.
06:25Lieutenant Tilly, transmit a scan of the card to the beacon.
06:28Hi, Captain.
06:29Any updates from Fred HQ?
06:30Nothing yet, but it's safe to assume Runes on his way here.
06:33Captain, the Archive's healing us.
06:35I'll put them through.
06:40Hello and welcome.
06:41I'm Hyrel, one of the sworn order who tend to the Eternal Gallery and Archive and call it home.
06:47I'm Captain Burnham of the Federation starship Discovery.
06:50Thank you for the speedy response.
06:52Oh, we saw you coming.
06:54Very exciting.
06:55We love visitors.
06:56I'll be explaining how to get into the Archive in a moment, but first there's a little speech we like to give.
07:02The Eternal Gallery and Archive is proud to house the largest known collection of historical and cultural artifacts in the Alpha or Beta Quadrant.
07:11Sorry to interrupt, but we're in a bit of a hurry.
07:13Of course.
07:14We can talk while we travel.
07:16Sending coordinates and velocity adjustments now.
07:19As this is your first visit into the Archive, please follow my instructions precisely and do not deviate.
07:26The Archive is not responsible for any damage, dismemberment or death that may result in your failure to do so.
07:35Was that meant as a joke?
07:36I guess we'll find out.
07:38Hmm.
07:39Commander Asha, take us in.
07:41Aye, Captain.
07:51The Archive has made its home in the Badlands for nearly a century.
07:54These uniquely treacherous environments help us protect our collection.
07:57Archive as such as myself come from a wide array of backgrounds.
08:00We have devoted our lives to the preservation of...
08:02We appreciate the information, but if you don't mind, we need to focus.
08:06I understand.
08:07I'm here if you have any questions.
08:15Status report.
08:16Radiation levels are rising.
08:18Shields are down to 70%.
08:19Captain, Harrell's telling us to cut engines.
08:22Hi-Rell?
08:23It creates a reaction to the ionic destruction...
08:25No!
08:26We can't hear you, Hi-Rell!
08:27To cut your engines, no one could be catastrophic.
08:30What did she expect us to do without engines?
08:32Coast on our current momentum, I guess.
08:34Well, she hasn't led us wrong so far.
08:37Cut the engines!
08:40Hi, Captain.
08:41I can't stabilize without engines.
08:42Follow the path as best as you can.
08:43Shields down to 52%.
08:44Pulling from the grid to boost.
08:45Radiation levels still rising.
08:46Shields at 37%.
08:4725!
08:48Hang on, everybody!
08:49Ah!
08:50Holy shit.
08:55Nice work, everyone.
09:12Holy shit.
09:16Nice work, everyone.
09:19There it is.
09:34Let's go get that final clue.
09:42Let's go get this final clue.
09:50I'm so excited.
09:53I'm so excited.
09:57I'm so excited.
10:01I'm so excited.
10:05I'm so excited.
11:10We'll be within range in less than a minute, Captain.
11:18Lieutenant Gallo?
11:19Shields back to capacity in less than 10.
11:21Commander Rayner?
11:23We took a beating, but no significant injuries or damage.
11:25We're good.
11:25Captain, we're still seeing high levels of, uh, shrink-off radiation.
11:29It's a byproduct of plasma activity.
11:31We won't be able to cloak.
11:33Then neither will the green.
11:35Lieutenant Christopher, hail Archivist Tyrell.
11:37Aye, Captain.
11:37She's responding.
11:42Ah, it's good to see you made it all in one piece.
11:45I'll have the Archive lower their shield so you can transport in.
11:48I'll be down shortly.
11:50There is just one other matter.
11:52My scans show that there is a Kweijan aboard Discovery.
11:55Is that correct?
11:57It is?
11:58We have an item from Kweijan in our possession.
12:02As it is one of the last remaining artifacts of that world, we would appreciate it greatly
12:06if your colleague could accompany you and provide some context on it.
12:11Now let's come to join.
12:12Maintain yellow alert and eyes up.
12:20The Breen are likely on their way.
12:22Brainerd, you have the con.
12:28You want to see me?
12:29Okay.
12:29The Archive has something from Kweijan.
12:35You can come with me if you want.
12:39Yes.
12:44Good.
12:45We should go.
12:46I should apologize.
12:51Look, when you all sent Mo away...
12:55I mean, I get it.
12:59You have a duty, your mission.
13:01I know it was a tough call.
13:03Yeah, not all yours.
13:04Yeah, I get it.
13:05But I supported it.
13:06And I stand by the decision.
13:11Right.
13:13I do care about you.
13:16And what's important to you.
13:23Okay.
13:25Let's go.
13:26And down that aisle, you'll find our extensive collection of original Valaric manuscripts.
13:50We can take a detour if you like.
13:52No, thank you.
13:52We're pressed for time.
13:54And speaking of, I asked my first officer to report about our recent run-in with the Breen.
13:58You did receive that, didn't you?
14:00We sure did.
14:01And we thank you for it.
14:05So if the Breen track us here, we'll do everything we can.
14:07Not to worry.
14:08Not to worry.
14:08The Breen are contributing members of the Archive.
14:11We have quite a bit of experience dealing with cultures in active conflict with one another.
14:16We're here to serve everyone, as long as everyone follows the rules.
14:20And if they don't?
14:21Why, we send them to the dungeon, of course.
14:24Just kidding.
14:26We don't actually have a dungeon here.
14:27It's really more of an oupliette.
14:32I've set up viewing rooms for you both.
14:35They're right this way.
14:44The manuscript you requested.
14:51Labyrinths of the Mind.
14:52Has anyone else ever come looking for this?
14:58Our records show you are the first.
15:02What can you tell me about the person who left this here?
15:05Only the basics, I'm afraid.
15:07According to our records, Dr. Derricks was an accomplished neuroscientist, originally from BetaZ.
15:12The human archivist herself later in life lived out the remainder of her days here.
15:16I'll leave you to it while I show Mr. Booker to his viewing room.
16:16Is your name really Book?
16:27Uh, yeah.
16:28How fun to have a book visit me in the library for a change.
16:35Hm.
16:35This box is truly wood.
16:55This box is truly wood.
16:57We were hoping you could tell us what it is.
17:16Mm-hmm.
17:17It's, uh, cutting from the Quajon world root.
17:26Wow.
17:36How?
17:37It was given to us long ago, but was recently moved to a place of honor.
17:43It is part of our sacred duty to ensure that cultures that are lost are never forgotten.
17:49Mm-hmm.
17:58Wow.
17:58Wow.
18:03If you would like to take that with you, we consider that you're right as one of the last living Quajon.
18:11We would only ask that you return someday, and tell us what's become of it, so we may have a record.
18:18Michael, you won't believe what?
18:27Michael?
18:28Michael?
18:28Hey.
18:31Michael.
18:33Hello?
18:51Hello?
18:58Hello?
18:59Hello?
19:00Burtum to Discovery, do you copy?
19:15Hello?
19:16Shhh.
19:21I'm at a really good part.
19:30Book?
19:39This isn't real, is it?
19:44Nope.
19:47Your consciousness has been transported into a mindscape,
19:50a virtual space created from what your neural activity indicates
19:53as the most important place in your life.
19:57I've never been here before.
19:59The mind doesn't lie.
20:02Who are you, exactly?
20:04I'm the program Dr. Derek's created.
20:07So why do you look like you?
20:09My form was generated from your subconscious.
20:12So you tell me.
20:19So this is a test.
20:22Same as with every other clue we've found.
20:24So I've gotta figure something out, pass, get the clue and get out, yeah?
20:28Sounds like you know the drill.
20:30Then let's get on with it. I'm ready.
20:33Are you?
20:40She's stable.
20:42At least physically.
20:44Doesn't seem to be in any distress.
20:45What happened to her?
20:46I don't know.
20:47I've worked here for decades.
20:48I've never seen anything like this.
20:50It looks like some sort of nucleonic emitter.
20:53It's connected to her frontal lobe and it appears to be running a program in her mind.
20:59Okay, can you stop it?
21:00Not safely.
21:01And transporting her back risks severing the nucleonic beam.
21:04Disconnecting it while the program is still running could be fatal.
21:12I'm going in after her.
21:15This must be it, right?
21:16The transmitter.
21:18Why isn't it working?
21:19It must not be capable of multiple connections.
21:25But each clue so far has had some kind of challenge involved.
21:28We have to assume that that's what this program is.
21:31We can't just wait around and hope she passes the test.
21:34The clue's here. We have to find it ourselves.
21:36Hyrel, I need everything you've got on this neuroscientist.
21:39Any biographical data, any book she's accessed.
21:42I'll be back shortly.
21:51Okay, the clue's in here somewhere.
21:54Find it and you'll know where it is in the real world.
21:57Find the clue? That's the test?
21:59No, the clue is the objective.
22:01The test to find it, you'll have to figure out on your own.
22:04I don't have time for games.
22:06The scientists who hid the projector's technology,
22:08including Dr. Derricks, wanted it found and protected.
22:11That's what I'm here to do.
22:14Good.
22:16I hope you succeed.
22:18Let me know if I can help.
22:19Can you narrow down where to look?
22:21I'm not allowed to give hints.
22:23What about yes or no questions? Can you answer those?
22:25Depending on the question, yes.
22:28Oh, my brain should have been telling.
22:31Derricks was a neuroscientist,
22:33so what kind of test would she have created?
22:37There's too much here to search randomly.
22:40She wants us to succeed, yes?
22:43Yes.
22:44She would have created a...
22:49A way to narrow the scope of the search.
22:53I assume this is here for a reason?
22:55Everything's here for a reason.
22:57So the clue wouldn't be in fiction or art.
23:00Neuroscience is too easy.
23:02But if it were hidden in a shelf, or in something that looked like a book...
23:11History.
23:14Is that it?
23:17A history section?
23:19What's your logic?
23:21They started the clue trail during the Dominion War.
23:24Janal said they wanted it found during a time of peace.
23:27He believed peace was possible.
23:29The only way progress like that happens is by learning from the past.
23:33Those who learn history aren't doomed to repeat it.
23:36So we'll go through all the books on the Dominion War.
23:38Go from there.
23:39Where's the history section?
23:41Have you thought about what might happen if you fail?
23:44No.
23:45The mindscape shuts down and your brain functions will cease.
23:51Security precaution.
23:53Sorry.
23:55You shouldn't be surprised.
23:56Janal will have let him eat your knock, Enos.
23:59It's not too late to leave.
24:02I can release you now.
24:05Last chance.
24:07I'm gonna finish this mission.
24:09And you are going to help.
24:11Lead the way.
24:13Let's go.
24:30I found everything you asked for.
24:32Biographical data and a list of all materials accessed by Dr. Derrick's while in residence.
24:37You're faster to list what you didn't access.
24:42There is another matter as well.
24:46A Breen ship has arrived at our beacon.
24:49They are requesting access to our archive.
24:52You can't let them in. Not now.
24:54We cannot be perceived as taking sides.
24:56But I will handle this appropriately.
24:59Discovery.
25:03Commander Reese.
25:05Red alert.
25:08The Breen are on their way.
25:09Hello.
25:21I'm Hyrel.
25:23One of the sworn order who tend to...
25:25We tried to start the jump signature to this location.
25:28They seek an item which belongs to me.
25:30As a matter of policy, when it comes to conflict between our visitors, the archive does not...
25:33I hope for your sake that it remains in your possession.
25:39Sir.
25:41In light of the fact that we have several priceless green artifacts in our archive, I'll do you the courtesy to suggest that you rephrase your request.
25:50Give it to me!
25:52Or the archive and its contents will be named hash.
26:03Your request is denied.
26:05And all Breen privileges are suspended until further notice.
26:09May you gain knowledge elsewhere.
26:20What?
26:24Locke told me the Breen had great reverence for their culture and history.
26:30Not either.
26:32You say what is hidden down there will reveal the location of the progenitor's technology.
26:38How?
26:40You have to combine it with the other clues that Discovery has.
26:43You made no mention of other clues.
26:45Discover is here already somewhere.
26:48You can easily overpower them.
26:50Find what's in the archive.
26:51Take what they've got.
26:52We have everything we need.
26:54Is there anything else?
27:00Do not test my patience again!
27:05Again!
27:23The light's getting dimmer or are we just been at this too long?
27:26Hmm?
27:28Never mind.
27:29There's nothing in the Dominion War section or any other wars.
27:36Nothing invades that history, true history, or the mere universe.
27:43I'm going the wrong way, aren't I?
27:45Yes.
27:47Damn it!
27:49Why didn't you tell me?
27:50You didn't ask.
27:52I told you everything in here was for a reason.
27:54You assumed the reason was history.
27:56Try being proactive next time.
27:59It's your mindscape.
28:00I can help you, but I can't solve it for you.
28:03Fine.
28:06Why is this library the most important place to be?
28:09Why did my subconscious pick this place?
28:12For the test.
28:16It's the mission.
28:19Isn't it?
28:21It's because the mission is here.
28:23And when I'm on a mission, that's my priority.
28:27That's why this place matters so much.
28:29Speaking proactively, you may be onto something.
28:32Good.
28:34Great.
28:36So?
28:37So?
28:41Labyrinths of the mind.
28:45This mission isn't a labyrinth of books.
28:47Labyrinth.
28:49Labyrinth.
28:51Oh, it's a maze.
28:53Hmm.
28:55Finishing the mission means getting out.
28:57And getting out is how I find the clue.
29:00I am supposed to find my way out,
29:03back to the reading room where it all started.
29:06Right?
29:07Unless you'd rather die in here.
29:09Hmm.
29:11Well, there are mathematical methods for solving mazes.
29:13Try more as algorithm.
29:15I just need to find a way to mark my path to eliminate routes.
29:27For what it's worth, I prefer this version of you that is helpful.
29:31Tilly would have been just as frustrating for what it's worth.
29:34Hmm.
29:42Nothing in there leads to the clue.
29:43How about a reading list?
29:45Comprehensive guide to Talaxian hairstyles,
29:48Eperian folktales,
29:50Euclidean geometry.
29:53I don't know. Seems like she just love learning new things.
29:55Any suggestions?
29:57Excuse me.
30:02Unfortunately, our conversation with the Breen did not go well.
30:06We have raised our shields,
30:07which means transport back to your ship will be impossible for the time being.
30:11My apologies.
30:13I must go prepare our defenses.
30:15I'll help you.
30:17Let me know if you need me.
30:19Damn it.
30:21Discovery, what's your status?
30:23Sir, we've detected the Breen on approach through the Plasma Storm.
30:25How far out?
30:26The plasma is blinding our sensors,
30:28so we're relying upon gravimetric calculations.
30:30Lieutenant Naya?
30:31I'm guessing we have two minutes.
30:32Discovery's no match for that ship's firepower.
30:34Find a way to conceal yourself and stand by for further orders.
30:38Rain or out?
30:39We can't cloak.
30:43We'll have to use natural cover.
30:45Commander Asha, take us out of the Oasis, back into the Plasma Storm.
30:48Sir.
30:49If it blinds our sensors, it'll blind theirs too.
30:52Lieutenant Naya, monitor weather patterns in the Plasma Storm.
30:54Send the data to Asha's station.
30:56Keep us as safe as you can.
30:58Hi, Commander.
30:59Just stating the obvious here, but we can only withstand that storm for so long.
31:02I know.
31:04We just need long enough.
31:05I don't know.
31:06you're the only one.
31:07You might just need long enough.
31:08I don't know.
31:09I just need long enough.
31:10Oh, my God.
31:40Oh, my God.
32:10Oh, my God.
32:15What?
32:17What the hell?
32:20Thought you had it, hmm?
32:23Why are you making this so hard?
32:28I'm doing what the scientists wanted.
32:30I'm trying to...
32:32They didn't ask for you.
32:35What?
32:37They wanted the technology in their right hands, yes.
32:41They wanted it protected, yes.
32:44But who's to say you're one of the good guys?
32:47How could they possibly know that you, Michael Burnham, out of anyone alive, could be trusted with it?
32:52There's a test here.
32:59You haven't passed it yet.
33:05The lights are going out.
33:10I'm running out of time, aren't I?
33:12Yes.
33:15You are.
33:16I'm...
33:17What?
33:26It's just a test.
33:27I won't stand by it.
33:27I won't stand by it.
33:28I won't stand by it.
33:28I won't stand by it.
33:29I won't stand by it.
33:30Her cortisol levels are rising. Whatever she's experiencing, she's stressed. Scared.
33:36Commander Rainer, do you copy?
33:38Yeah. What's going on?
33:40We're detecting some kind of energy connection between the Dreadnought and the Archive Shields.
33:44I've never seen anything like it. Seems to be focusing on one particular spot.
33:48Shit. They're using shield tunneling technology to get their troops inside.
33:52Discovery, figure out how that tech works and find a way to slow it down.
33:55Aye, Commander.
33:56Booker, I need you back here right now. Breener coming in.
34:00All my way.
34:02I'm gonna need all the time you and Book can get me.
34:06You got it.
34:11What is the test?
34:15Is it why this mission is so important?
34:19Every mission is important.
34:22So what is it?
34:23Labyrinth of the mind.
34:24Is it me?
34:25It's my mind.
34:26Right?
34:27That's why my subconscious picked you. Because we talked earlier. And...
34:29And what?
34:30We didn't fix it.
34:31That's why I picked you. Because I want to fix it.
34:35But I don't know how.
34:36You looked at me like that too.
34:37I don't know how.
34:38You looked at me like that too.
34:39You looked at me like that too.
34:42I didn't know how to fix it.
34:43I didn't know how to fix it.
34:45It's my mind.
34:46Right?
34:47That's why my subconscious picked you.
34:48Because we talked earlier.
34:49And...
34:50I don't know how to fix it.
34:51We didn't fix it.
34:55That's why I picked you.
34:57Because I want to fix it.
34:59But I don't know how.
35:04He looked at me like that too.
35:07Flat.
35:09Because he thinks the job is all that matters to me.
35:13And so is that what you want?
35:16Do you want me to admit that?
35:18That the job is everything?
35:19Is that how I get the clue?
35:21Or maybe...
35:22I should go even more psychobabble here.
35:24And admit that if I don't complete this mission,
35:26then I don't know who I am.
35:32Maybe I think that, uh...
35:35Nobody will love me or...
35:38Or care about me if I'm a failure.
35:44Maybe that's the reason why I lost you.
35:47Him.
35:50Is that right?
35:54Some of those things may be true.
35:55But they are not the answer.
35:56I don't think so.
36:09Wait.
36:11So, I succeed.
36:13I fix things.
36:15What's wrong with that?
36:16What's wrong with having a purpose?
36:17You don't have to go out every day and prove yourself.
36:20Why you matter.
36:23You don't have to prove that you deserve this uniform.
36:27This rank.
36:29That...
36:31That you can be counted on.
36:32That you won't quit.
36:33That you won't fail again.
36:34Again?
36:36Screw you.
36:41I'll find my own way out.
36:50Engineering.
36:51How much longer till we can help the archive?
36:52We are working on it, Commander.
36:54So how the hell do we disrupt a shield tunneling technology we've never encountered before from a species we know almost nothing about?
37:01And don't forget, we have to do it without the Breen knowing we're here. How hard could that be?
37:06Wait, look at this. Their tunnel has a periodic fluctuation. It's 8.4 times per second.
37:12Yeah, they're using harmonic resonance to match the archive's shield frequency.
37:17I love when you two do that.
37:19It's an automated process, but if we could make the Breen system think that the frequencies change, it would remodulate closing the tunnel.
37:27So none of the soldiers can get inside.
37:29The problem is the Breen used base duodeca coding, which is, like, really hard to hack.
37:32Remember when I was talking about all the odd jobs that I used to have?
37:37Yes.
37:39There was a stint where I fixed comms relays near a Hesperia.
37:44Hesperians really know how to party, by the way, but it's another story.
37:50Point is, we do remote repairs using concentrated positron beams, which can be set to pulse at pretty much any frequency.
37:57We could direct a positron beam right to where the tunnel meets the archive's shield, and then if we set the beam to a different frequency...
38:06That's it. Do it again.
38:08The tunnel would automatically close.
38:10The tunnel would automatically close.
38:12Eventually, they're gonna realize the error and correct it.
38:14Yes, but hopefully by then our team's already out.
38:17Great idea.
38:19I live to serve.
38:21Commander! We have a solution, but it'll take a few minutes.
38:23We'll do our best to survive that long.
38:29They'll come into this intersection here. They'll find out and look for us. I'm guessing in groups of four.
38:33Okay, I see a few places where we could hit them from. Depending on their arrival position.
38:38No.
38:40There. We'll be hidden by a shelving, but we'll have clear sight lines wherever they come in.
38:44You think like a hunter.
38:49I do. To survive the brain.
38:51We're closing the tunnel now, Commander, but some of the brain got through.
38:54We'll be ready.
38:56We'll be ready.
39:06Whatever it is you're talking about, it isn't your only problem. Someone just took out one of your troops.
39:12I told you Discovery was here.
39:26There's more of that down here, you gelatinous assholes.
39:41Send me down there. I've beaten Starfleet in close quarters.
39:45Do you think I'm a fool?
39:46I would never miss the chance to bring Locke back.
39:49And you don't have to keep losing soldiers.
39:51We will sacrifice as many as it takes.
39:54Reduvent all forces in the facility to that sector immediately.
40:01He doesn't give a shit about Locke.
40:04Or any of you.
40:06You know that, right?
40:07Hang on. Hang on. Hang on. Hang on.
40:15Book's been shot.
40:17Book. Hold on. Let me take a look.
40:19Easy. It's not that bad.
40:21Abdominal cavity. I can't treat this here. We need to get you to sick day.
40:24What's the captain's status?
40:26No change. She's still in it.
40:28Discovery report.
40:30We disrupted the tunnel, but they'll have it fixed soon.
40:32And we can't take this plasma storm much longer.
40:34What do you want us to do, Commander?
40:37Five more minutes.
40:39If the captain's not conscious by then, we evacuate.
40:43Contact the archive. Have them ready to lower shields.
40:45It's just long enough for us to beam out.
40:47Wait. What about the clue?
40:49The clue won't matter if we're all dead.
40:51No, no, no. No. We can't.
40:54Book. Listen.
40:56I know transporting means we could lose her.
40:59But if we stay, we most definitely will.
41:03That's all right.
41:07I'm sorry. I needed a minute.
41:22Your time is almost up.
41:25I know.
41:26I've tried everything.
41:34There's nothing else I can do.
41:39I don't want to die in here.
41:43Are you afraid of death?
41:44Not really.
41:51I'm afraid. A lot.
41:59But not of death.
42:01I'm surprised to hear that.
42:04The great Michael Burnham.
42:06Afraid.
42:08More than I'd like to admit.
42:14Of failing.
42:18Not being enough.
42:20Good enough captain.
42:23Friend.
42:25Partner.
42:26Sometimes.
42:31It drives me, that fear.
42:40And I hate that.
42:43Oh.
42:45I hate it so much.
42:47It makes me feel...
42:49It makes me feel small.
42:54And weak.
43:01Ashamed.
43:03Sounds hard to live like that.
43:08Well, I've been working on it.
43:18But it's always there.
43:23Actually feels good to say it out loud.
43:26Even if you're not really both.
43:27I should've told him that.
43:31Why I pulled back.
43:39But I was afraid I had failed him.
43:44Or me.
43:48And so it was easier to just...
43:50To be honest.
43:56Well, anyhow.
43:59Can you at least tell me what the test was?
44:04Before the lights go out.
44:08No need.
44:11We've passed.
44:21How?
44:23If you're going to be the one to protect what the progenza's left behind.
44:26You need to know yourself.
44:28Be able to be honest with yourself.
44:31Especially with the things that are hard to look at.
44:34Fear.
44:36Guilt.
44:38Things you may be vulnerable to.
44:40Most can't admit those things to themselves.
44:43But you can.
44:45This is the only way you can be trusted to do the right thing with so much power.
44:48Congratulations, Michael Burnham.
45:00That's one hell of a test.
45:06Damn.
45:09You don't mess around, do you?
45:12There's a crystal in viewing room seven.
45:14Once you wake up, just go in, get it, and break it open.
45:20The clue's hidden inside.
45:23Okay.
45:26I guess I should head back then.
45:29There's one more thing you need to know first.
45:32About something inside your final destination.
45:35The way to get through it.
45:37Um, Buck.
45:39Hey, Michael.
45:40Michael.
45:41Buck, you're hurt.
45:43What happened to you?
45:45What happened to you?
45:47I'll be okay.
45:49What's our status?
45:50We need to evacuate now.
45:51Bring her here, more coming.
45:52I know where the final clue is.
45:53We need to get there first.
45:54Let's move.
45:56Commander Reese!
45:57Are you ready?
45:58On your mark.
45:59Archive's standing by the lower shields.
46:00But the Breen reinforcements are almost there.
46:01How much time do we have?
46:0230 seconds, if you're lucky.
46:03It's enough!
46:05It's enough!
46:06Huh!
46:07Commander, now!
46:08Enerdrive!
46:09Oh!
46:10I'm ready to get there first.
46:11We need to get there first.
46:12Let's move!
46:14Commander Reese!
46:15Are you ready?
46:16On your mark.
46:17Archive's standing by the lower shields.
46:18But the Breen reinforcements are almost there.
46:19How much time do we have?
46:2030 seconds, if you're lucky.
46:21It's enough!
46:23Huh!
46:25Huh!
46:31Commander, now!
46:32Enerdrive!
46:44Our booking call, we're in sick bay.
46:46Hi, Captain.
46:48What's the status of the archive?
46:49Harrell said several archivists were injured, but none critically.
46:52Yet, with reinforcements beaming in, it won't last long.
46:55Figures they need help.
46:56I sent Gallo to work on our shield emitters.
46:58Good idea.
46:59Commander Jemison, have Gallo's team route all the available power to your station.
47:03Commander Asha, get ready to take us out into the open and draw the Breen away from the archive.
47:06Aye, Captain.
47:10All right, Asha.
47:12Let's fly.
47:23Primark, we have discovery on scans.
47:26They're hailing us.
47:28Put them through.
47:30Primark Rune, your business is with us, not with the archive.
47:34They no longer have the item you desire.
47:36So you do.
47:37And if you fire on us, you'll destroy the clue.
47:40If you do not send me the entire set of clues immediately, I will destroy the archive.
47:45Captain, the Dreadnought's charging some sort of energy weapon.
47:50Primark, wait!
47:51There are a thousand innocent lives in that archive.
47:53Take this as your final warning.
48:04Captain, Harrell's reporting significant injuries.
48:07Give me the clues or more blood will be on your hands.
48:21First, I'll need your assurance that the archive and everyone in it will not be harmed any further.
48:28Captain.
48:29You are in no position to bargain.
48:32I am if you want the clues.
48:33Now swear on it.
48:35A Targoon.
48:37To spare the archive and all its inhabitants.
48:40A Targoon is a sacred Dreadnought.
48:44You expect me to swear one with a human?
48:47That is exactly what I expect.
48:50I need a moment to consider.
48:52Tilly, get the rest of the clues up here.
48:55Need to finish the map so we can find where the tech is hidden.
48:58On it.
49:00Why would you do this?
49:01The Federation's compassion has always been its weakness.
49:05To save the few, they will risk the many.
49:08It could be a trick, Primark.
49:10She would not risk that.
49:12Not after seeing what our weapons could do.
49:15Reopen communications.
49:17They're ready, Captain.
49:19Put them through.
49:21I will grant your Targoon.
49:24I will spare the archive and all those inside.
49:27Deviate from our agreement and they will die excruciating deaths.
49:32Standby for transport. Discovery out.
49:34Tilly?
49:36I'm here. I'm here.
49:42Last clue.
49:44Here we go.
49:50Coordinate's to the presentator's technology.
49:51Get a scan of that map to Stamets.
49:55that's it coordinates to the presentators technology get a scan of that map to stamets
50:19have him stand by to jump hi captain
50:21prepare to vent main shuttle bay and all plasma from both nacelles
50:28you heard your captain get to it
50:33prime hawk we received an item from discovery via transport materialize
50:42is the object authentic it is good
50:51lock on to discovery prepare to fire what no
51:06you'd be starting a war with the federation all the brain factions would be drawn in they could turn
51:13against us us so you're agreeing now i am the wife of the scion
51:20the dead
51:22they're locking on to us evasive maneuvers everybody hold tight commander samets are you ready
51:32standing by captain we're gonna vent and jump simultaneously black alert incoming
51:39damage report i'm losing lateral thrusters damages reported on decks 5 14 and 18
51:49defy me again fire back and hold steady
51:51structural integrity is weakening
51:55shields down to 30 percent captain keep holding
51:58shields are collapsing on my mark
52:02now
52:06oh
52:13is everybody all right all right captain i captain i captain i captain
52:31commander raynor asha where are we 22 light years off target commander samets i'm not sure what
52:37happened the four drives malfunction sensors say it was damaged by the green assault we cannot jump
52:43again until it is fixed warp drive is also damaged captain looking into how bad keep me posted
52:48any casualties a few minor injuries that's it
52:52good lieutenant tilly considering maximum warp how long will it take the brain ship to get to the map
52:57coordinates six hours give or take commander raynor i want all available personnel on repairs they have
53:03five hours and then we need to go you got it smart move by the way captain now rune thinks we're dead
53:09advantage us someone once told me never turn my back on a green
53:15he still might beat us to the coordinates
53:17now i learned something in the mind scale something we'll need to know when we get there and i can't imagine
53:22rune figuring it out what about maul
53:31crynark we've confirmed debris and traces of war plasma discovery has been destroyed
53:41good
53:44prepare to fire in the archive
53:46you swore tear goon
53:54don't make this any worse for your crew than you already have
53:59set a course for the map coordinates the goal is luck
54:03the goal is whatever i say it is we charge the weapons take her to the chamber
54:09and primark shoot
54:15take her
54:19yes primark
54:24no damn it wait if you destroy the archive it won't just be the federation coming after you
54:29it'll be other brain too as revenge for your dishonor
54:34with the pretenders power we will not worry but you don't have it yet do you
54:45lock will never support your succession
54:48if you kill me
54:50i don't need lock anymore
54:52and there it is
54:58you don't give a damn about your scion your oaths or the lives of your soldiers
55:06would lock do this would your scion be this selfish
55:11he left for a human
55:14he loves me
55:16yes
55:17but he left because of you
55:22primark don't
55:24how
