00:00:00You
00:00:36In all my time, there's one thing I've learned to be true.
00:00:44If you want to serve the galaxy, make your bed.
00:00:51Here's another.
00:00:53Get the class on time.
00:00:56Doesn't seem like much.
00:00:57Just tiny acts of service to your fellow cadets.
00:01:01A single stitch.
00:01:04And another.
00:01:05And another.
00:01:06Until you've woven something greater than you ever imagined.
00:01:10A tapestry.
00:01:13The tapestry that is Starfleet.
00:01:15That is history.
00:01:17And now the moment you've all been waiting for.
00:01:22Mutaginosillus Arneopolis.
00:01:24Self-replicating mucus.
00:01:26A jar of goop.
00:01:30I heard we get a wrangle-orn tapeworms next semester.
00:01:35Please never stand next to me again.
00:01:36Each of you will care for a single specimen for five days.
00:01:41Easy.
00:01:42Right?
00:01:42Wrong.
00:01:44Mucus is romantic.
00:01:46It likes to barf.
00:01:47If you get even a tiny amount on your skin, it will replicate.
00:01:53Until you're covered head to toe.
00:01:56And you will have to move in together.
00:01:58And spend holidays with its parents.
00:02:05And we will have to help you break up by freezing it with a neutralizing agent.
00:02:13That gets you a C.
00:02:15A C?
00:02:16How do we fail?
00:02:17If it kills you.
00:02:19Welcome to xenobiology.
00:02:22When the burn hit, the Federation had to leave Earth.
00:02:26Starfleet Academy was abandoned.
00:02:28Our tapestry, our history, irretrievably torn.
00:02:32Say what you will about this present time, but it has one advantage over every other.
00:02:37It's ours.
00:02:40Comparative xenobiology was dropped from the curriculum 100 years ago.
00:02:43When Starfleet's emphasis shifted from understanding those with whom we share a universe
00:02:48to defending ourselves against them.
00:02:50Sir, is there a creation myth about a wise-ass space rat
00:02:54who put a state-of-the-art starship in danger just because he needed to call his mummy?
00:02:57Or what about an overcompensating fish boy who's sad and lonely because he's a teeny tiny fish dick?
00:03:01Cadets, many cultures expel their males into the wild at your stage of hormonal development
00:03:08to mature on their own or die.
00:03:11We are not one of them, currently.
00:03:15You are the first officer corps class to return to this campus in over 100 years.
00:03:23One we share with our venerable neighbors at the War College,
00:03:27an institution that's turned out the officers that kept Starfleet strong during the burn.
00:03:33We thank them for their continued service and look forward to working together.
00:03:39If you thought combat training was only for the War College, think again.
00:03:44Sound off.
00:03:45Duty, honour, service.
00:03:47Louder.
00:03:49Duty, honour, service.
00:03:51Pitiful.
00:03:53Practical engagement is not about self-defense.
00:03:56Though you will learn self-defense, it's not about weapons.
00:04:00Nami, the victory is life.
00:04:02My mother that today is a good day to die.
00:04:05One day, we'll all stare dead to the face as she stares back.
00:04:10Yes!
00:04:11Dad has eyes!
00:04:13And none of my cadets will confront her like gutless cowards.
00:04:17I will rip out my own stomach and choke on it before even one of you lets fear win the
00:04:22day.
00:04:22Don't you hear me?
00:04:24You will not live in fear!
00:04:31I can always spot the brother.
00:04:39Democracy doesn't live in a place.
00:04:41It lives in continuous action.
00:04:44So go out and seek, explore, innovate.
00:04:50Boldly go where no one has gone before.
00:04:53It is my great honour to welcome you all back to Starfleet Academy.
00:05:11The Starfleet Academy
00:07:29And I wouldn't be forced to read the military strategies of a Klingon general...
00:07:34No offense, Jayden.
00:07:36He's a little dry.
00:07:40We got a room assignment.
00:07:42Never had a room.
00:07:43We share them.
00:07:44Like with others?
00:07:46That's the definition of...
00:07:47Roommates.
00:07:48Fascism?
00:07:49Nope.
00:07:50Also, with a roommate, how does anyone...
00:07:51Hook up?
00:07:52You get me.
00:07:53Try not to antagonize your new roommate for at least ten minutes.
00:07:57See you in class.
00:07:58Bye.
00:07:58See you in style of cartography.
00:08:00I'll say do see.
00:08:04So, I...
00:08:05Never had the chance to thank you for...
00:08:08Helping me get rid of all those killer space pirates.
00:08:10Gotta give it to you.
00:08:12Sort of brave.
00:08:12Right?
00:08:13Heroically saving everyone?
00:08:14After dropping us in mortal peril.
00:08:16Wonder if I'll do midterms.
00:08:21This is me.
00:08:23Me too.
00:08:25Wait.
00:08:26Are we...
00:08:27Roomies?
00:08:29No.
00:08:30See ya.
00:08:31Also, tip.
00:08:32Don't hook up with anyone for like the first six months.
00:08:35That's how you find out who's a total psycho.
00:08:39Bye-bye.
00:08:41Sage advice.
00:08:51Oh, hell no.
00:08:53Guys, absolutely not.
00:08:55This is a no.
00:08:55No way.
00:08:56Go.
00:08:57No.
00:08:58Hate you.
00:08:58The biolabs are almost there.
00:09:01But whatever supplier we're using for our samples of xenomucosa has no imagination.
00:09:07None.
00:09:08The Arneopolis strain is hardy, I'll conceive, but just so vanilla.
00:09:13It might as well be pudding.
00:09:15Now, the Kimagora strain, I requested, has bigger fire.
00:09:20Those kids can learn a lot from mucus like that.
00:09:22Do you need to answer those?
00:09:24Oh, uh, the Federation is getting ready to rebuild its new seat of government.
00:09:29Oh, Namibia's vying for it?
00:09:31Yes.
00:09:31Singapore.
00:09:32What about Paris?
00:09:33Where it's always been.
00:09:34It's in the mix.
00:09:35Do you have the requisition?
00:09:38Thank you, Chancellor.
00:09:40Vanilla mucus is not my jam.
00:09:42Doctor, I would do almost anything to end this conversation.
00:09:45Your wish is my command, Chancellor.
00:09:47Thank you so much.
00:09:48For now, have a delightful day.
00:09:51Two more things.
00:09:52The Betazoid delegation will arrive shortly.
00:09:55We sent a fleet of Federation shuttles as a gesture of goodwill.
00:09:58The Special Assembly of the Diplomatic Council will convene, and we're hosting a banquet
00:10:02in their honour tomorrow night.
00:10:04Carl, Stanley, Miranda.
00:10:07You knew the Betazoid when they were part of the Federation.
00:10:11What are the chances they'll rejoin?
00:10:14Every loss hurt after the burn, but losing the Betazoid really tipped the scale.
00:10:19So, I'm just grateful...
00:10:20They regulate everything else.
00:10:22Why can't they regulate that?
00:10:23You go out of your bed like an actual rat.
00:10:26And are you ever going to make your bed?
00:10:26Why would I?
00:10:27Seriously, it's like rooming with a farm animal.
00:10:29By the way, who has a banana allergy?
00:10:30Is that even a thing?
00:10:31Yes, Dick, it is a thing.
00:10:34Cadets, where are you right now?
00:10:37It's not a trick question.
00:10:39In your office.
00:10:41Huh?
00:10:41We're cadets of Starfleet Academy serving aboard the Starship Athena, Chancellor.
00:10:45Correct.
00:10:45If you forget that again, I'll jettison the both of you out the airlock.
00:10:49Mayor, stand in detention or leave.
00:10:52And what do you want?
00:10:53We can't room in the same...
00:10:56room.
00:10:57Why?
00:10:58It's an intensely personal medical issue.
00:11:00Really?
00:11:00Yeah.
00:11:01Severe allergies to him yelling,
00:11:02Oyster!
00:11:03Every time he shoots a barred-up sock into his drawer.
00:11:04It's not my fault he grew up without socks.
00:11:06Or aim.
00:11:06Or balls.
00:11:07Good news, guys.
00:11:08You do have something in common.
00:11:09You're both funny.
00:11:10Aren't they funny?
00:11:12Is this a multiple choice?
00:11:14Request denied.
00:11:14You, out.
00:11:16You, stay.
00:11:17The logs say you hacked the exits on...
00:11:21Three separate occasions in the last 12 hours.
00:11:25Told me to find hobbies.
00:11:26You have too much spare time, cadet?
00:11:28You need more menial labor?
00:11:30No.
00:11:31No, Chancellor?
00:11:35You chose this place, ma'am.
00:11:37You made me a promise, Chancellor.
00:11:39We'll find your mother.
00:11:41She's still alive.
00:11:42And when we do, I'll do everything I can to make the Federation see that your mother's
00:11:47sentence was extreme, even in a harsher time.
00:11:50But there doesn't seem to be a Goja 5 in any Starfleet database.
00:11:54No planets, ships, moon, zero.
00:11:57It doesn't seem to exist.
00:11:58So what?
00:11:59Someone's not in the database?
00:12:00They're not worth the effort?
00:12:02Even if they make their bed?
00:12:04The effort is what Starfleet is.
00:12:06And somewhere, you know that.
00:12:08Or you would have already busted out of here.
00:12:10Instead of just trying to...
00:12:11I'm still here because there's a system or two I haven't hacked yet.
00:12:14What?
00:12:14Nothing?
00:12:15Cadet Master?
00:12:16Mir, have you considered that Noose Brocco was lying to mess with your head?
00:12:21Should I trust you to stay?
00:12:23Should I trust you to do what you said you were going to do?
00:12:25Yeah.
00:12:28Am I dismissed?
00:12:36He needs his ass kicked.
00:12:38He's been getting his ass kicked his whole life.
00:12:41I think I'm going to treat him like somebody who actually does what they say they're going to do.
00:12:46And see if that fritzes his motherboard.
00:12:49The Betazoids are bringing their youth delegation.
00:12:51They're the ones that pressured their government to enter negotiations with us.
00:12:57Activism.
00:12:59Love it.
00:13:01Specialist Krebs, return with Science Lab 7.
00:13:03Your Talaxian fur fly has come out of hibernation.
00:13:06Knowledge.
00:13:07Commander Kellig, your counterpart at the War College.
00:13:09Pleasure, Commander.
00:13:11Oh, uh, regulation footwear is a requirement.
00:13:14Yeah, I heard that.
00:13:16I just don't like wearing them if I don't have to.
00:13:19In all seriousness, it's unsafe.
00:13:21You could...
00:13:21Step my toe, get a splinter.
00:13:23I signed the waivers.
00:13:24Bare feet pick up electrons that reduce inflammation,
00:13:27up white blood cells and cytokines,
00:13:29and stimulate brain activity.
00:13:31Plus, sometimes I just need to let the little piggies out the pasture.
00:13:34You know what I mean?
00:13:35I can confidently say I do not.
00:13:39I've been informed you've asked to host the Betazoid negotiation so you can bring children.
00:13:43Clearly, I've, uh, misheard.
00:13:45Ah, but you did not.
00:13:47It's an opportunity to teach our cadets conflict resolution firsthand,
00:13:51and for them to long from their Betazette peers that advocating for social change matters.
00:13:57How romantic.
00:13:58Your cynicism's pretty adorable.
00:14:00If you want to talk about the good old days, I have more of them than you.
00:14:04We had to abandon Betazette after the burn.
00:14:08They went through hell with the Venari role.
00:14:10Uh, no, no, no.
00:14:11With marauders.
00:14:13So they put up that psionic wall around their planetary system
00:14:17and stayed behind it for over a hundred years.
00:14:19Nobody gets in or out.
00:14:21We can't even communicate behind that wall.
00:14:23And then other systems joined this big swath of cutoff space.
00:14:26But now their kids are saying,
00:14:29let's rejoin the Federation,
00:14:31because they don't want to live like that anymore.
00:14:33Emran Sadal is humoring them.
00:14:35He's an isolationist who campaigned his presidency on keeping that wall up.
00:14:39He's also a Betazoid, an empath who can read our feelings, Cranky.
00:14:43Is his preemptive dismissal wise?
00:14:46Admiral Vance, priority transmission from FHQ.
00:14:50Walk with me.
00:14:50Should Betazette rejoin?
00:14:5320, 30 other worlds rejoin with them.
00:14:56And hundreds of new species loyal to the Federation to help us defend it,
00:14:59not to mention an extra 90 light years of safe trade and passage
00:15:04in a time when we're still rebuilding.
00:15:06I don't dispute how much we need the Betazoid's back.
00:15:10This is our one slim chance to bolster our standing in the galaxy in a real way.
00:15:16Great!
00:15:17So what's the problem?
00:15:18These negotiations are far too important to allow children to attend.
00:15:22Children are our ambassadors to now, Commander.
00:15:26These children have seen and experienced things far beyond their years.
00:15:30Okay.
00:15:31Come.
00:15:33Let's game it up.
00:15:35Come.
00:15:35Come.
00:15:36If Sadal goes back to his planet and says,
00:15:38I tried, but they couldn't meet our needs,
00:15:41then he'll serve out his senior term and it'll take that long before we ever get another chance.
00:15:47But if he does value young voices, a young demographic,
00:15:51we need to let him know that we do too.
00:15:53Let's do it.
00:15:55Friends, in front of the Betazoid, we're one big happy family, huh?
00:16:03The shortest distance between two points is not a straight line.
00:16:10The laws of physics hate me because I should not be here.
00:16:16You.
00:16:16Girl with the face begging to be singled out.
00:16:19Why do physics hate me?
00:16:21Because you're not supposed to be here.
00:16:23Thumbs up for listening.
00:16:25Entropy.
00:16:26Time's arrow.
00:16:27Hey, you're absorbing all the energy in the room.
00:16:29For real.
00:16:29You're like a sponge.
00:16:31Can you chill?
00:16:31Guys, I was born in 2215 and jumped almost a thousand years into the future.
00:16:36You can go with the poetry for five minutes.
00:16:43Whoop.
00:16:43Red alert.
00:16:44New building.
00:16:45Still working out the kinks.
00:16:47Just give me a second here.
00:16:49Goja 5 is not a recognized location.
00:16:54Goja 5 is not a recognized location.
00:16:57Hi.
00:16:58What's on Goja 5?
00:17:00You bored?
00:17:01Class not riveting enough for you?
00:17:04I'm bored.
00:17:06It's like, what else?
00:17:09Excellent question.
00:17:11I guess Goja 5 is sexier than entropy?
00:17:16More of a turn-on than time itself?
00:17:19Enlighten us, please.
00:17:23I can save everyone's time by rerouting the power junction so that it has a dedicated power supply,
00:17:28which is how it should have been wired in the first place.
00:17:30Also, not to be rude, but there's nothing you can teach me that I don't already know about temporal mechanics.
00:17:34And I'm actually trying to do some real shit, so let me get to it.
00:17:37Huh, some real shit.
00:17:38Okay.
00:17:39Well, please, stand at the front of the class.
00:17:42Are you kidding?
00:17:43Zero percent, cadet.
00:17:45Introduce yourself to everyone.
00:17:48And sadly, we don't offer a course in accredited sulking.
00:17:52Plant your feet and tell us who you are.
00:17:55Caleb Mir.
00:17:56Sorry, I'm not a bat.
00:17:58You have to speak at a human volume.
00:18:00Caleb Mir.
00:18:02I didn't ask your name.
00:18:04I asked who you are.
00:18:05What do you stand for?
00:18:07Have you ever seen a ghost?
00:18:08Made a mixed tape?
00:18:10What is the worst birthday present you ever got?
00:18:15Arrested.
00:18:15Awesome.
00:18:16You can never have enough misdemeanors in quantum physics, if you ask me.
00:18:21Okay, here's an easy one.
00:18:23The name of this cadet.
00:18:30Being a cadet in Starfleet Academy means being open to the people around you.
00:18:37And that connection is where time and space really live.
00:18:42I don't need connection.
00:18:43Yeah, yeah.
00:18:43You're a genius who owns all the suffering.
00:18:46I only know two things, kid.
00:18:48Number one, old age and treachery always triumph over youth and a smart mouth.
00:18:54Oscar Wilde.
00:18:55Love that dude.
00:18:57Fun fact, when he died, they had to put glass over his tombstone because people kept trying to make out
00:19:02with him.
00:19:03Number two, a smart mouth isn't worth a damn without wisdom.
00:19:08But what do I know?
00:19:10I'm old and boring.
00:19:13Attention all cadets.
00:19:15Third instruction period will begin in eight minutes.
00:19:17You have seven minutes to get your next caffeine fix.
00:19:20You're a star.
00:19:21Oh, I'm sorry.
00:19:22What the hell?
00:19:23I'm moving.
00:19:23What?
00:19:24I'm sorry.
00:19:24Biohazardous material detected.
00:19:34Mucus neutralized.
00:19:35Have a nice day.
00:19:38Oh, I love the scoop.
00:19:45No, I'm out of here.
00:19:47I'm out of here.
00:19:48I am done.
00:19:52Cadet Mare, you're outside your permitted bounds.
00:19:55Negotiations begin in eight minutes.
00:19:57Quick.
00:19:58Missed every coffee order ever ordered.
00:20:00Trip.
00:20:00In every caffeinated planet.
00:20:01Organically fine.
00:20:03Single origin trip.
00:20:03In every quadrant.
00:20:04Lost in the Fibonacci sequence.
00:20:05Zero, one, one.
00:20:06Backwards from 10,946.
00:20:09Triple decaf.
00:20:10Long shot.
00:20:10Half and half latte.
00:20:10Double half cap.
00:20:11Macchiato with cinnamon.
00:20:12Americana with coconut water.
00:20:13Americana with coconut milk.
00:20:14Trip, trip, trip.
00:20:15Long, long, long, long, long, long.
00:20:16Half and half milk.
00:20:17Half and half milk.
00:20:18Half and half milk.
00:20:20Where are you going?
00:20:29Why are you climbing the fence?
00:20:32Fenceonomics class?
00:20:34Yeah, that's not a thing.
00:20:36Well, could be.
00:20:37It's a lot of classes here.
00:20:39Why is your jacket covered in snot?
00:20:46Because I'm clearly thriving.
00:20:49Hey, um, did you, did you kill it?
00:20:56Overloaded this process and buffers?
00:20:58Please don't tell anyone.
00:21:05You're trying to leave, but you're not sure.
00:21:09You're kind of regretting it?
00:21:13You think you're being a big, stupid idiot?
00:21:17Wow.
00:21:18It's a lot of conflict.
00:21:22No.
00:21:23No conflict.
00:21:25You're literally on the fence.
00:21:29Great.
00:21:37I escaped into therapy.
00:21:39I escaped into therapy.
00:21:54Can I just have a meltdown in peace?
00:22:06Can I just have a meltdown in peace?
00:22:08I should go.
00:22:12Hey, wait, what's your name?
00:22:16Where are you going?
00:22:18Uh, I think I asked you that first.
00:22:21What do you mean, you asked me?
00:22:22Oh, guys, what the hell?
00:22:25Why are you out of bounds, Caleb Mir?
00:22:27With my friend.
00:22:28Look, she's walking away.
00:22:29Look.
00:22:29Look.
00:22:30Look.
00:22:30There's a boy.
00:22:31Look.
00:22:31Hey.
00:22:32Hey.
00:22:32Hey.
00:22:33Hey.
00:22:33Please rise to welcome President Emron Sadal and the Beta-Z Youth Delegation to Starfleet Academy.
00:22:57Mr. President, welcome.
00:22:59Everyone, please, sit.
00:23:10Friends, welcome.
00:23:12On behalf of the Federation, we are humbly aware that we failed you in the aftermath of the burn.
00:23:19Our resources were stretched very thin.
00:23:22We have deep admiration for how you kept your planetary system whole.
00:23:26But now the Federation is not whole without Beta-Z.
00:23:36Beta-Z appreciates the Federation's accurate assessment of its failures.
00:23:41As I read your lips, Admiral, your eyes are already making the next request.
00:23:47You are about to ask us to lower our wall.
00:23:50I am.
00:23:52And in return, we offer our partnership and our protection.
00:23:56Protection for Beta-Z would require 12 battle-ready starships to remain within five light-years of our planet at
00:24:02all times.
00:24:04Six seats on the Federation Security Council.
00:24:07And the power to veto any potential new Federation member without consensus.
00:24:15The Federation is a democracy, Mr. President, veto without consensus strips us of our core identity.
00:24:23Your identity isn't our concern, Admiral.
00:24:28Easy, easy.
00:24:31Is this a prison?
00:24:46Mr. President, you've brought your youth delegation, your future, out from behind the wall for the first time, as I
00:24:54understand.
00:24:55Our future sits here for the first time in a hundred years.
00:25:00Progress is the acceptance of identity, not the negation of it.
00:25:07That is an abstraction.
00:25:09Until someone makes it real.
00:25:11For Beta-Z, real is the spilt blood of our elders and children at the hands of the Vanari Raal.
00:25:18If you can't provide us with what we need, this will be a very short negotiation.
00:25:25President Sudan, we view your passion as a great gift.
00:25:29Please allow me a short window to discuss with the Federation the terms you propose.
00:25:34Shall we regroup after a short hiatus?
00:25:39Nothing like a good plenary session to make you hungry.
00:25:43Refreshments in the Kirk Pavilion during the hiatus.
00:25:55Admiral, my daughter and son would enjoy a tour of your campuses while we pause.
00:26:01Mr. President, we're happy to find suitable guides.
00:26:03Examples of the excellence we strive for in our cadets.
00:26:08Him.
00:26:14Well, I...
00:26:15Him.
00:26:20Fifty hours off my menial labor.
00:26:23No.
00:26:26Sixty.
00:26:27And this couch is ugly.
00:26:28You should give it to me for my room.
00:26:30It's a chase.
00:26:31Hmm.
00:26:33Off, knucklehead.
00:26:35Ten.
00:26:37I'll think about it.
00:26:40And I'll need you to fire the temporal mechanics teacher.
00:26:51That's not an apple.
00:26:53It's a Verulian fire fruit.
00:26:55Why?
00:26:55I burned off whatever nerve endings I had like 300 years ago.
00:27:02This isn't a game.
00:27:03Tarema Sadal is a leader in the very influential Betasoy youth movement.
00:27:08She needs to come back with a genuine understanding of what this place is.
00:27:12Not what you think it is.
00:27:13So don't show her the busted replicator.
00:27:16Huh?
00:27:16My soup was freezing.
00:27:18Gazpacho.
00:27:19It serves like that.
00:27:20Huh.
00:27:20Well, I serve like this.
00:27:26I'll do it.
00:27:29If you give me access to the Stellar Cartography Lab.
00:27:32One hour.
00:27:33No illegal hacking.
00:27:35And if I don't find Goja 5, I'll trust you to do the looking.
00:27:44Dismissed.
00:27:45You, you can't dismiss yourself.
00:27:49But I did, though.
00:27:51Caleb, people will live and die because of what happens today.
00:28:00Cool.
00:28:02Love it here.
00:28:03My blue heaven.
00:28:08My blue heaven.
00:28:28Attention, all cadets in the Turner wing.
00:28:31If you need an afternoon pick-me-up, visit the newly reopened Replicafé for a complimentary espresso drink.
00:28:37We're also thrilled to announce that we now serve Racta Geno.
00:28:40Blah.
00:28:44So, this is the Turner wing.
00:28:48Hmm.
00:28:48Yeah.
00:28:49Turner.
00:28:49Uh, yeah.
00:28:50Uh-huh.
00:28:51Turner must have been flush.
00:28:53This wing is shiny.
00:28:54Yeah, hard, though.
00:28:55He was a grunt.
00:28:56Oh.
00:28:56Oh, yeah.
00:28:57Man of the people.
00:28:58Oh.
00:28:58Me and potatoes.
00:28:59Tough if you got out of line.
00:29:00But?
00:29:01But on a battlefield, he's the one you want.
00:29:03Coming back.
00:29:03Actually, he was a disaster on the battlefield.
00:29:05Okay.
00:29:05No sense of direction.
00:29:07High-fived all his superior offices.
00:29:09I already put pips on his dog and left him in charge for us.
00:29:12I did.
00:29:12Yeah, I heard that, too.
00:29:14And that he, uh, made everyone learn Welsh.
00:29:17And he didn't even speak Welsh, so, you know, he couldn't understand anybody.
00:29:20I guess he just felt so inadequate that his parents decided to donate a space station just so he could
00:29:25get a haul.
00:29:25Yeah.
00:29:29Bye.
00:29:30Bye.
00:29:35So, you've never been anywhere outside of Betasad's wall?
00:29:38Uh, no.
00:29:39Never.
00:29:40Why?
00:29:41A lot of us don't want to live behind it anymore.
00:29:44Oh.
00:29:44But at the same time, it's my home.
00:29:47Thanks.
00:29:48My people, you know?
00:29:51Uh, yeah.
00:29:52Yeah.
00:29:52Why were you trying to leave?
00:29:57Uh, you never told me what you were doing when you found me.
00:30:02Humpback whales.
00:30:04I heard they were migrating, but they were a nutshell.
00:30:08Sometimes it's just good to see something really big, like, you know, a live thing that's big that just doesn't
00:30:16really care about you.
00:30:18I mean, let's remember that whatever you're worried about, you just do not matter to this whale.
00:30:28Spring, you know?
00:30:32Yeah.
00:30:35Like, no one ever goes, oh, that whale's lost.
00:30:40You got the whole ocean to swim in.
00:30:43Are you a whale?
00:30:45Or a thing that gets lost?
00:30:48In this scenario?
00:30:49Uh, let you know when I figure it out.
00:30:55This is why I picked you.
00:30:57What?
00:30:57You're the only person here at night screening starfleet pride out of every orifice.
00:31:04I want to thank you for the compliment, but I also want to ask you to never say excreting an
00:31:08orifice to me again.
00:31:12Okay, look, this is going to be embarrassing for you, but I think you have something on your tooth.
00:31:18Wait, what?
00:31:19Oh, my God, what is it?
00:31:20I don't know.
00:31:20Is it a piece of food?
00:31:21It's not a piece of food.
00:31:22A piece of gum?
00:31:23It's not a piece of gum.
00:31:24A gem.
00:31:27A gem representing the sacred eye of Naxia, ritually bestowed upon the first daughter of the first house when she
00:31:33reaches moonflow and becomes guardian of the holy mantle of Betazed.
00:31:38I mean, I wouldn't know.
00:31:39Yes.
00:31:41See, cultural exchange.
00:31:43We're learning so much about each other.
00:31:47Listen.
00:31:49Okay.
00:31:51I've got to do a thing.
00:31:53Hmm.
00:31:54Things sound illegal.
00:31:55I'm looking for a planet.
00:31:57A planet I can't access.
00:31:59No one can access.
00:32:01Why?
00:32:02I left my keys there.
00:32:06All right, so this is our stellar cartography lab.
00:32:10One of Turner's favorites.
00:32:12Wow.
00:32:14Computer, reduce safety filters.
00:32:16Pull up Goja 5 and enhance.
00:32:18Beginning scan of Federation maps.
00:32:22Scanning.
00:32:25Scanning.
00:32:29Scanning.
00:32:33Goja 5.
00:32:35No such location found.
00:32:39Someone was on that planet.
00:32:43Someone you'd care about.
00:32:45Can't hide anything from you, huh?
00:32:48Let's make a deal.
00:32:50You trust me.
00:32:52Let me behind the curtain a little.
00:32:55I'll trust you.
00:32:58Okay.
00:33:01Oh, you mean like right now?
00:33:03The trust thing happens now?
00:33:08Accessing Betazed governmental star charts.
00:33:15What did you just do?
00:33:19Try your scan now.
00:33:27Computer.
00:33:34Show me Goja 5.
00:33:35Goja 5 located.
00:33:45Why isn't it in Starfleet's database?
00:33:48It probably formed post-burn.
00:33:50Behind our psionic barrier.
00:33:57Goja 5 has something to do with why you're trying to escape.
00:34:00Caleb, I need to understand this place.
00:34:06Why does it feel like you're a prisoner here?
00:34:09Why does it feel like you are too?
00:34:12There's a whole universe outside your wall.
00:34:17Ask me about it.
00:34:20I've seen things on my...
00:34:22Betazed has naked weddings.
00:34:24That sounds awkward for everybody.
00:34:26All cadets.
00:34:27Negotiations will now resume in the Sato atrium.
00:34:31We prepare to offer you four starships, three seats on the Security Council, and meaningful input into new members.
00:34:39Somewhere in the galaxy, the Vanari Rawl just celebrated.
00:34:43Last month, two massive raids attempted to breach the wall.
00:34:48We could have been reduced to ash in moments.
00:34:52Perhaps because Betazed is falling behind all other planets in technological advancements?
00:34:57Without external access, your technology will be virtually obsolete within a decade.
00:35:03Forget a decade.
00:35:04Who knows when the next burn hits?
00:35:07You're asking me to take chances on people I haven't even met yet.
00:35:11I'm asking you to take a chance on them.
00:35:20Let's retire for the night.
00:35:27Well, that wasn't great.
00:35:29I should go.
00:35:30I need to see my father.
00:35:31Wait.
00:35:33Uh.
00:35:35You want to see a thing?
00:35:39This one might cheer us both up.
00:35:53I can't sleep in this place.
00:35:55And so I wandered around at night and found this.
00:36:05Lady Tarema of Betazed, may I introduce you to the humpback whale of Earth?
00:36:12No.
00:36:14Lady Tarema of Betazed, may I introduce you to the humpback whale of Earth?
00:36:24Maybe.
00:36:24mice docs on my side of the rough ride.
00:36:55She's pregnant.
00:37:19The galaxy is paradise.
00:37:24You get to live in it.
00:37:26You can, too.
00:37:33I have responsibilities.
00:37:37To your father?
00:37:39To Betazed.
00:37:47Thank you for this.
00:37:51So much.
00:37:56I kind of want to let it all out and scream.
00:37:58No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:38:06Tarima!
00:38:08We've been looking everywhere for you.
00:38:10Let everyone know we've located the president's daughter.
00:38:12I expected friction here, but not reckless disrespect.
00:38:15I cannot apologize enough.
00:38:20Let's go.
00:38:42Let's go.
00:38:45Let's go.
00:38:47Let's go.
00:38:49Let's go.
00:38:58Let's go.
00:39:03Let's go.
00:39:12I want to go.
00:39:15Ha ha ha ha, bapapapapapa rar, bapapapapapa rar.
00:39:24Babapapapa die Nacht, wieВОGcongsnirlel,
00:39:29nun soll ich die Wichtige und Ge wirdí•´ìš”.
00:39:31Nun soll sei mein Gottesweifstamm,
00:39:33nun soll sei mein Herzenspreim ,
00:39:35mein Herzenspreim,
00:39:36mein Herzenspreim,
00:39:37hm, hm.
00:39:40Welche Freue wird das sein,
00:39:42welche Freue wird das sein,
00:39:45Am I an optimist or a masochist?
00:39:49You haven't murdered the kid yet, so that's it still.
00:39:52Still time.
00:40:10You are gone.
00:40:12Uh-huh.
00:40:13Huh?
00:40:14Hmm.
00:40:17Hey, War College went well today?
00:40:19It was certainly less eventful than last night.
00:40:22You've made a commendable start here.
00:40:24Despite our differences, I don't envy the task ahead of you.
00:40:29Many people, many opinions.
00:40:31Speaking of which, we're about to break ground on our new seat of government in its old home of Paris.
00:40:37Ah, but more things stay the same.
00:40:40Would you agree progress is impossible without change?
00:40:47I believe that most people who say they want progress don't really want to change.
00:40:53Which often makes both impossible.
00:40:55Well, touché.
00:40:58I'll say it.
00:40:59That dude's judgy as hell, and I don't care if he can sense that I think that.
00:41:03One-on-one, their best, our best, to the death.
00:41:08It's just quicker sometimes.
00:41:10What is wrong with you?
00:41:12What is wrong with you?
00:41:13Seriously, what is wrong with you, Mike?
00:41:15See you soon.
00:41:16Talk to you for a second.
00:41:17Yeah, what's wrong?
00:41:18People keep telling me to chill, and that I'm a lot, and that I give unpaid dating coach energy, and
00:41:22I don't think it's a compliment.
00:41:25Maybe I don't fit here.
00:41:27I woke up at 4 a.m. to run while memorizing the Vulcan alphabet backwards.
00:41:32We fit here.
00:41:34And how are we this evening, ladies?
00:41:36To be honest, I'm actually a bit depressed.
00:41:37I don't question why you cling so fiercely to the idea of returning the Federation to what it was, given
00:41:42your history, until you yourself left 15 years ago.
00:41:47If Starfleet was willing to acknowledge a mistake and correct it, then Starfleet is a living thing, capable of growth
00:41:54and change.
00:41:56I believe in his future.
00:41:57As a Betazoid, I would hope that you would sense our good intentions and share that empathy.
00:42:19See you later.
00:42:32Be right back.
00:42:37Hey, little sister.
00:42:42I'll have to see Chaos Boy.
00:42:44I think he's Chaos Boy.
00:42:45I think he's...
00:42:46He's a surprise boy.
00:42:48The surprise boy's good.
00:42:49He smiles a lot.
00:42:51He smiles a lot at you.
00:42:53He feels safe with you.
00:42:55Go get him.
00:42:57Go get him.
00:42:58Chill.
00:43:30And how was the most disciplined day of your life touring the War College?
00:43:33I think my dad's actually starting to warm to this place.
00:43:37There are upsides to discipline.
00:43:39Yeah, says the one who had to scream.
00:43:45Sorry if I got you in trouble.
00:43:47Sorry if I got you in trouble.
00:43:52Can I ask you a question?
00:43:54What is that?
00:43:57It's on your neck.
00:43:59Uh...
00:44:01It's a neuroinhibitor.
00:44:04It cuts off any spike of psilicione.
00:44:07It's the chemical that gives us our empathic abilities.
00:44:13You're the only one who has one?
00:44:19I feel things...
00:44:22More than other betazoids.
00:44:25Hmm.
00:44:29Normal is boring anyway.
00:44:37If I lose control, I can hurt people.
00:44:41Hmm.
00:44:46Doesn't scare me.
00:44:54Your turn.
00:45:04Why is it so hard for you to...
00:45:06Just...
00:45:08Be honest and direct.
00:45:17Because I've spent a lot of time...
00:45:21Just surviving.
00:45:26Now...
00:45:26There are all these rules.
00:45:30My whole life's been worse.
00:45:34Helps me feel sick.
00:45:37My mom made me feel that way.
00:45:41She got taken away.
00:45:46She's why I'm looking for Gorgia 5.
00:45:49She might be there,
00:45:50and I haven't seen her since I was six.
00:45:51So I really need...
00:45:52Wait.
00:45:53Wait.
00:45:57That's why you care about Beta Zed lowering its wall?
00:46:01What?
00:46:01No.
00:46:02What?
00:46:02Um...
00:46:03Why didn't you just tell me?
00:46:04I mean, I didn't keep anything from you.
00:46:06Because I didn't realize that my traumatic childhood
00:46:08was part of the tour.
00:46:14At least...
00:46:14I was honest and up front.
00:46:16Were you just using me this whole time?
00:46:19When we were together,
00:46:20I thought it was because you...
00:46:23Liked me, not because you were trying to...
00:46:25Manipulate me.
00:46:25It was.
00:46:26It was because I liked you.
00:46:27Why didn't you just tell me?
00:46:29Because I knew you for five minutes.
00:46:33I've been searching for her for 15 years.
00:46:37I slept in dumpsters,
00:46:38almost frozen,
00:46:39got the shit kicked out of me
00:46:41more taunted than I can count.
00:46:43I'm sorry.
00:46:44I didn't know.
00:46:45I didn't...
00:46:45No.
00:46:48You know what?
00:46:49Go back to your guards
00:46:51and your valets
00:46:52and all the things
00:46:53that keep you safe
00:46:54in your safe little box.
00:46:57You're welcome.
00:47:13Chancellor Ake,
00:47:14why did you leave Starfleet?
00:47:16Was the Federation
00:47:17no longer up to your standards?
00:47:19The Federation allowed me
00:47:21to question standards.
00:47:23Question or lower them
00:47:25by allowing a criminal
00:47:26into your academy?
00:47:27You're referring
00:47:29to Cadet Mir.
00:47:30Oh, thank you so much.
00:47:32Those allegations
00:47:33were never subject
00:47:33to a judicial review
00:47:35or due process
00:47:36and occurred
00:47:36outside our jurisdiction,
00:47:38so he's not a criminal here.
00:47:41Yet.
00:47:49Academy admission
00:47:50traditionally includes
00:47:51a six-week preparatory program,
00:47:53followed by a rigorous
00:47:55entrance exam
00:47:56and intense
00:47:57psychological scrutiny.
00:47:59Was Mir exempt
00:48:00from these?
00:48:03He passed the exam
00:48:04in the 98th percentile
00:48:06while sitting
00:48:06in the back of the shuttle.
00:48:08The traditional
00:48:08paths to Starfleet
00:48:10disappeared
00:48:10for many of these kids, sir.
00:48:12The ones who got here
00:48:13found their own way.
00:48:15I...
00:48:15I find that admirable.
00:48:17On Beta Zed,
00:48:18we maintain stringent boundaries
00:48:20around our children.
00:48:21Why are you willing
00:48:23to risk so much
00:48:24for a single cadet?
00:48:26Because he's exceptional.
00:48:27All the more so
00:48:28for living an unprotected life.
00:48:31We won't exclude him
00:48:32for that.
00:48:33I certainly won't.
00:48:35I lived in the Jannaran sanctuary
00:48:36and swam
00:48:37in the Opal Sea.
00:48:39Beta Zed was
00:48:40paradise.
00:48:42Some of the bravest,
00:48:43kindest people
00:48:43I've ever met.
00:48:44It seems to me, sir,
00:48:46that you're allowing
00:48:47your walls to define you now.
00:48:53It's one thing
00:48:54for you to tell me
00:48:55who my ancestors were.
00:48:56Another to demand
00:48:57we look past
00:48:58all that has happened
00:48:59and expect us
00:49:00not to have changed.
00:49:05We came here
00:49:06hoping for actions
00:49:07but received only
00:49:09empty words.
00:49:11The negotiations are over.
00:49:14We will leave
00:49:15in the morning.
00:49:23Yep.
00:49:25He came to say now.
00:49:50Yeah?
00:49:54Uh, hi?
00:49:58Smells really bad in here.
00:50:00Yeah, Darren.
00:50:02Uh, suffers from gland blockage.
00:50:03See, you still haven't
00:50:04made your bed.
00:50:06Never had a bed before.
00:50:11You want me to apologize again?
00:50:13Caleb,
00:50:14I've been searching for you
00:50:15a long time
00:50:17and then I found you.
00:50:21I really needed
00:50:22that little kid
00:50:23to be okay.
00:50:27But you're not him anymore
00:50:29and I have to let him go.
00:50:32If you leave
00:50:33and the Tarothans
00:50:35find you
00:50:36because you stole from them,
00:50:37I can't help
00:50:40so
00:50:40I won't lull you in
00:50:43but
00:50:44if you stay
00:50:46maybe we could build
00:50:48something
00:50:50different
00:50:52but I don't know about it.
00:50:58You know
00:50:59when your mom
00:51:01was at
00:51:02the rehabilitation camp
00:51:03she spent all her time
00:51:04studying physics
00:51:08they say she had
00:51:09a remarkable mind.
00:51:11Guess you'd come by it
00:51:12honestly.
00:51:18Imagine
00:51:20if she'd gone to school.
00:51:25Anyway.
00:51:30No, in physics
00:51:34there's always
00:51:34something you can build.
00:51:40You're a genius.
00:51:42Attention cadets.
00:51:43The Betazoid delegation
00:51:44is preparing
00:51:45for immediate departure
00:51:46to accommodate
00:51:47who will post
00:51:48long intro
00:51:49to shuttle maintenance
00:51:50until in 1100 hours.
00:51:52Caleb?
00:51:53Can I talk to you
00:51:53for a minute?
00:51:54Yes.
00:51:54Yes.
00:52:03quickly.
00:52:06I'm sorry.
00:52:07I'm so
00:52:08sorry.
00:52:11The Federation
00:52:14they're the villain
00:52:15of my story too.
00:52:20They took my mom.
00:52:23I should have told you
00:52:24because then we could
00:52:25have had a real
00:52:25conversation
00:52:26and instead
00:52:27I got scared
00:52:28you tell your dad
00:52:28to walk
00:52:30and I'd never get
00:52:31to find her
00:52:31behind your wall.
00:52:37We could have bonded
00:52:39over our mutual terror
00:52:40of trusting people.
00:52:44I screwed it up.
00:52:50What do you want, Caleb?
00:52:52Forget about what I want.
00:52:54I saw you with that whale.
00:52:56I saw you with that whale.
00:52:57You want a bigger world.
00:53:00You looked around this place
00:53:01and everything that you were
00:53:03seeing and hearing
00:53:03was beautiful.
00:53:05Right?
00:53:10So please
00:53:12get your dad
00:53:13to go back to the table
00:53:14one more time.
00:53:16At least then
00:53:18you can go home
00:53:19knowing you gave
00:53:19your people
00:53:20every last chance.
00:53:27If you want to do it
00:53:28for you
00:53:29for the love of God
00:53:32do it for Turner.
00:53:43Last night
00:53:44Mr. President
00:53:45we discussed tradition
00:53:46and I
00:53:49fancied myself
00:53:50a bit of a renegade
00:53:51which is not as true
00:53:52as I would like.
00:53:53I'm more of a traditionalist
00:53:55than I was willing to admit
00:53:56and it blinded me
00:53:57from seeing
00:53:58what can be.
00:54:00What if
00:54:01by re-examining
00:54:03the past
00:54:03we become something
00:54:04entirely new.
00:54:07Should Beta Zed rejoin
00:54:09the Federation
00:54:10will build
00:54:11its new seat of government
00:54:12not in Paris
00:54:13where it once stood
00:54:14but on Beta Zed.
00:54:19You're suggesting
00:54:21that actions
00:54:22speak louder than words.
00:54:24Should Beta Zed
00:54:25lower her walls
00:54:26we will be there
00:54:27with equal investment
00:54:29in building
00:54:29and protecting
00:54:31a future
00:54:31we both desperately need.
00:54:33...
00:54:36...
00:54:47...
00:54:49...
00:54:49...
00:54:51...
00:54:54...
00:55:20Yeah.
00:55:42Starfleet Intelligence reached Gosia 5 an hour ago.
00:55:46It's a place where people might want to disappear.
00:55:49No central authority, gangs mostly.
00:55:51It's pretty rough.
00:55:52But we found an encrypted flight manifest with your mom's name on it.
00:55:58Headed to the Ramos sector three months ago.
00:56:03Anisha made it off, Gosia 5.
00:56:05She's out there somewhere.
00:56:08I've given you access to all the comms channels I can access.
00:56:12If she's sending messages, it'll be on there somewhere.
00:56:18So this is, uh, guilt band-aid.
00:56:22Doesn't matter.
00:56:26Dismissed.
00:56:37Hey, kid.
00:56:39Hey, kid.
00:56:58Well, it's been another great day at Starfleet Academy.
00:57:03Reminder to all the dads that Turkey is at 2,200 hours.
00:57:07If you're planning on breaking that, do not.
00:57:11Sleep well.
00:57:13And see you tomorrow, fellow travelers.
00:57:23I'm your third, baby.
00:57:25We're roommates, bro.
00:57:27Starfleet for life.
00:57:28My dad let me stay.
00:57:29Wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:57:31Is Tarima here too?
00:57:32No.
00:57:33She chose the war college, bro.
00:57:35What?
00:57:35Why?
00:57:36I don't talk to dudes about my sister, man.
00:57:38Creepy.
00:57:39She asked me to give you this, actually.
00:57:42Okay, love.
00:57:43Okay, kale, cow.
00:57:45Beeble.
00:57:46Stop.
00:57:46Beeble!
00:57:47Stop.
00:57:47I love you, bro.
00:57:48Let's just pray.
00:57:48Don't touch me.
00:57:49Okay, we'll get there.
00:57:51Straight back in.
00:57:52Come on.
00:57:52Yeah.
00:57:53You know what?
00:57:53That trophy's pretty tight.
00:57:55Full guy with three legs for that back in Cognia.
00:57:57Did he have any hands?
00:57:58Yeah, he did have hands.
00:57:59Two big, meaty hands.
00:58:03I think I'm going to take more of a minimalist approach to my space.
00:58:06Yeah, is that some kind of hack for better focus?
00:58:08No, it's more that everything I touch I break.
00:58:10Just obliterate.
00:58:11What about that one?
00:58:13That's my bad.
00:58:14It was my grandmother's.
00:58:15It was very rare, but it's okay.
00:58:17It's kind of wild that you got to see what I'm talking about in real time.
00:58:19It happened.
00:58:20Like, it happened.
00:58:21It's okay.
00:58:22You know, man, all my trophies are mental.
00:58:24You know, I wore them to myself.
00:58:26Like, good job, Occam.
00:58:28You got the Wake Up On Time Award today.
00:58:30Or, congrats, Occam.
00:58:30You ate a nutritious meal.
00:58:32What's he doing?
00:58:33What are you doing?
00:58:34Tuck and fold, okay?
00:58:36Tuck and fold underneath.
00:58:37It's self-love.
00:58:38It's my version of, like, self-love.
00:58:41Yeah?
00:58:42Tuck.
00:58:43Fold.
00:58:44Bros making bros bets.
00:58:45Well, not much straight.
00:58:46Let's see it.
00:58:48Let's make a fork, guys.
00:59:17Let's make a drill.
