The first 200 lines.
Last time on Enterprise:
There's nothing left.
- No buildings, no trees, no people. - That's impossible.
There were 3,600 colonists.
The mission's been canceled.
I can't believe you're letting them do this.
You've waited all your life to command this ship.
History never recorded the disaster.
Someone violated the Temporal Accord.
Someone who doesn't want your mission to succeed.
Are you telling me that Enterprise didn't cause that explosion?
He brought me back 10 months.
But I knew everything I know now. How is that possible?
The Suliban destroyed that colony.
We're going back to get proof.
Have your ships bring me Archer.
Captain Archer is no longer aboard Enterprise.
I thought he was smarter than this.
He could have saved all your lives.
He's targeting our warp core.
You're in the 31st century, captain.
If bringing me here caused this, then send me back.
I'll take my chances with Silik.
You don't understand.
The time portals
have been destroyed.
Everything's been destroyed.
There's no way to send you back.
And now, the conclusion.
He's not onboard.
You must have sensors that can confirm that.
You've lied to me before.
If you don't tell me where he is, I'll have no alternative but to...
Come see for yourself. Or send your soldiers.
You'll realize I'm telling the truth.
Drop out of warp and prepare to be boarded.
Security teams to docking ports 1, 2 and 3.
This is Sub-commander T'Pol.
All security teams remain where you are.
Are you crazy?
How do we know how many Suliban are coming aboard?
They could try to take over the ship.
There are 30 armed vessels surrounding us.
Unless I'm mistaken, their weapons are still targeting our warp core.
Mr. Reed.
So unless you have a better suggestion...
If this place was destroyed as long ago as it seems to have been,
then what are you doing here?
You and your watchdog buddies don't exactly fit in with all this.
You're thinking of time travel like we're in some H.G. Wells novel.
We're not. It's far more complicated.
There's no way for you to understand.
Try me.
Listen, I realize your little utopia is gone,
and I sympathize.
But if you're telling me the truth,
if you've brought me 800 years into the future,
into this future, I think I deserve some answers.
I don't have any answers.
And you're right, I shouldn't be here.
Which means you shouldn't be here either. But you are.
We are.
We brought you here to protect the timeline.
We did quite a job.
What's wrong?
It's gone.
- What's gone? - The monument.
It was right here on the same street as the library.
It was obviously never built.
Why is that a problem?
- Who did it commemorate? - Not who.
- Then what? - An organization. A federation.
It doesn't exist for you. Not yet.
But it will?
Fine.
Keep your missing monument to yourself.
Where's this library you're talking about?
It should be right down there if it was ever built.
And even if it was, it'll be of no help. All the data's stored electronically.
Books made with paper.
There aren't supposed to be books here.
Well, there are.
So I suggest we use some of them to figure out
what you did to the last thousand years
when you brought me here this morning.
They haven't been duplicated.
Is he correct?
Don't you believe your scanners?
Is he correct?
We didn't have time to make a copy.
Leave her alone.
Lower your weapon.
If we find Captain Archer aboard this vessel,
you'll all be punished for lying to me.
He's not here. Unless he's dead. But we did find this.
- Where? - In that lift.
It's an hour old, maybe two.
When I saw him last, your captain spoke of a Temporal Cold War.
What was he talking about?
Captain Archer believed Crewman Daniels was from the future,
but if I recall, you killed him.
- What else? - Nothing else.
There's a temporal signature in your Turbolift.
What do you know of that?
The last time we saw Captain Archer he was entering that Turbolift.
Perhaps you haven't been lying to me.
You, shut down all com systems and computer terminals
with the exception of Engineering and the Bridge.
Confine all of them to their quarters. If anyone resists...
Understood.
Hey!
Under the circumstances,
it would be best to do what he says, commander.
They're three days overdue.
I told you, ambassador,
Archer said he was returning with proof
that they weren't responsible for the tragedy on Paraagan II.
You also told me Starfleet had ordered him
to deliver Sub-commander T'Pol and his medical officer
to the Vulcan ship D'kyr.
They're three days overdue.
The D'kyr has long-range sensors.
Have they detected Enterprise?
Captain Archer's negligence caused the death of 3,000 colonists.
Your superiors instructed them to return to Earth.
Their mission is over.
They haven't followed those instructions.
You didn't answer the commander's question.
Has your ship detected Enterprise?
The D'kyr said they were joined by a number of other vessels.
They're no longer within sensor range.
What kind of vessels?
They were at too great a distance to identify.
Enterprise has ignored our hails and defied Starfleet's orders.
I have no choice but to send the D'kyr in pursuit.
Jonathan Archer doesn't report to you.
No, he doesn't.
But Sub-commander T'Pol does,
and since she would never comply with his present actions,
I have to conclude that she's being held against her will.
I know you don't think much of Archer, ambassador,
but he is not in the habit of kidnapping Vulcans.
Fine.
You send your ship.
Whatever Archer's up to, I'm sure he's got a good reason.
He knows what he's doing.
Does he really?
Have you cycled through the sub-temporal harmonics?
He's never failed to respond before.
Perhaps he's angry that we didn't return with Archer.
Archer wasn't on Enterprise.
Why isn't he responding? I need instructions.
He said to destroy Enterprise if we couldn't bring him Archer.
We should tow them out of the nebula and do it now.
The temporal signature, it changes everything.
If Archer was pulled through time, we need new instructions.
Where is he?
If he's angry with you, you'll be punished again.
We should destroy Enterprise.
Have the surgeons prepare. Then bring me the Vulcan.
I haven't found a single reference to this Federation you talked about.
I doubt you will.
Because that monument wasn't there?
Because you weren't there.
So I disappear one day and all history changes?
I've looked through the 21st and 22nd centuries.
Everything looks right up until the warp 5 program.
After that, nothing looks right.
There were a lot of people involved in the warp 5 program.
We didn't bring a lot of people here this morning.
We just brought you.
"The Romulan Star Empire."
- What's that? - Maybe you shouldn't be reading that.
I don't get it.
What could I have done that could have been so important?
It wasn't just you.
It was events you helped set in motion.
This timeline, the one you say no longer exists.
What can you tell me about it? If my mission had continued?
It would have led to others.
And?
Okay.
What about this Federation?
Was Earth part of it? Was I part of it?
Silik wanted you, not the data disks.
The people he answered to were more interested
in capturing Jonathan Archer than in blaming Enterprise
for the destruction of the colony.
They obviously knew what role you were going to play
in the months or years to come.
By taking you away from the 22nd century,
they caused exactly what I was trying to prevent.
You've lost me.
The only chance I have of restoring my century
is by getting you back to yours.
Sounds like you've got a "chicken or the egg" problem.
You said your time portals are gone,
all your technology.
There isn't even electricity here.
You going to find a bicycle, turn it into a time machine?
