INT. MAIN BRIDGE, U.S.S. ENTERPRISE - CONTINUOUS
On the MAIN VIEWSCREEN, the Federation battlegroup is in formation.
INT. CAPTAIN'S READY ROOM/SITUATION ROOM, U.S.S. ENTERPRISE - CONTINUOUS
Vice Admiral Edward Jellico is looking at both Captain Martin and Commander Ro.
VICE ADM. JELLICO: After DS5 and your findings showed that it was the Borg I was able to convince Starfleet to assemble this battlegroup to repel the attack.
CAPT. MARTIN: Admiral, I was aboard the Saratoga with Captain Sisko at Wolf 359 our weapons didn't scratch their hull even with the picket line that Admiral Hanson had us in to attack them, and thirty-nine vessels out of forty were destroyed and 11,000 lives were lost.
VICE ADM. JELLICO: We've improved our weapons since 2367.
Both John and Ro are worried.
VICE ADM. JELLICO: Don't worry we won't capture the Borg vessel we're going to destroy the vessel.
CAPT. MARTIN: What's our mission?
VICE ADM. JELLICO: We know that the Borg have to be at warp and we can intercept the Borg Cube with this attack and with enough attacks we can force it out of warp and hopefully destroy the cube.
Monitor shows the attack.
CAPT. MARTIN: Very well.
VICE ADM. JELLICO: We'd like that the Enterprise hangs back before we call you in.
John looks over him.
CAPT. MARTIN: May I ask why?
VICE ADM. JELLICO: Starfleet wants the Enterprise on patrol along the Neutral Zone border they don't want the Romulans to take advantage of the Borg attack we want you to show that we're not taking our eyes off the border just because of the attack by the Borg.
CAPT. MARTIN [sighs]: Aye, sir.
Jellico leaves the briefing room.
EXT. TYPHOON EXPANSE
The Federation battlegroup enters warp space one at a time as the Enterprise remains at station keeping.
INT. MAIN BRIDGE, U.S.S. ENTERPRISE - CONTINUOUS
CMDR. RO: Can't believe we're not going to the battle.
CAPT. MARTIN [sighs]: I know Ro but we have our orders Jamie set course for the Neutral Zone full impulse.
LT. KAYE: Aye, sir.
Lieutenant Kaye works the helm controls as Captain Martin leans back in the chair.

The Federation defense force has assembled at Saturn.
INT. U.S.S. CHALLENGER MAIN BRIDGE - CONTINUOUS
The officers are at their stations as Admiral Jellico sits in the Captain's chair.

[classical music is playing]
CMDR. RO: Bizet?
CAPT. MARTIN: Berlioz. What do you have?
CMDR. RO: Our latest sensor sweep of the Neutral Zone.
CAPT. MARTIN [re: PADD]: Oh, fascinating. Twenty particles of space dust per cubic meter. Fifty-two ultra-violet radiation spikes and a class two comet. Well, this is certainly worthy of our attention.
He tosses the PADD down on his desk.
CMDR. RO: John, why are we out here chasing comets?
He looks at her.
CAPT. MARTIN [sighs]: Let's just say that Starfleet has every confidence in the Enterprise and her crew. They're just not sure about her Captain. They believe that a man who faced them at Wolf 359 and saw his friends die horrible deaths should not be put in a situation where he would face them again. To do so would introduce an unstable element to a critical situation.
CMDR. RO [scoffs]: That's ridiculous! 
The intercom CHIRPS.
LTCMDR. T'MIR [com voice]: Bridge to Captain Martin
CAPT. MARTIN [to com]: Go ahead T'Mir.
LTCMDR. T'MIR [com voice]: We've just received word from the fleet. They've engaged the Borg
Off John's reaction...
JUMP CUT TO:

Both Captain Martin and Commander Ro walk onto the bridge.
CAPT. MARTIN: Sito, put Starfleet frequency one four eight six on audio.
LT. SITO: Aye, sir.
Lieutenant Sito works at her console.
FLEET COMMUNICATIONS: Flagship to Endeavor. Standby to engage at grid A-fifteen. Defiant and Bozeman, fall back to mobile position one. Acknowledge. We have it in visual range. A Borg cube on course zero point two one five, speed warp point nine six
BORG COMMUNICATIONS: We are the Borg. Lower your shields and surrender your ships. We will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to our own. Your culture will adapt to service us. Resistance is futile
FLEET COMMUNICATIONS: All units open fire. They've broken through the defense perimeter. Continue to attack. We need reinforcements. Ninety-six dead and twenty-two wounded on the Lexington
John ends the com chatter.
CAPT. MARTIN: Jamie, set a course for Earth.
LT. KAYE: Aye, sir.
CAPT. MARTIN: Maximum warp.
He walks to his Captain's chair as he turns to face his crew.
CAPT. MARTIN: I am about to commit a direct violation of our orders. Any of you who wish to object should do so now. It will be noted in my log.
Everyone looks around as Sito chimes in.
LT. SITO: Captain, I believe I speak for everyone here, sir, when I say...to hell with our orders.
Everyone smiles.
CMDR. RO: RED ALERT! All hands to battle stations.
Lights dimmed as klaxon blares as Captain Martin sits in the Captain's chair.
CAPT. MARTIN: Hit it.

The Enterprise turns to starboard as the nacelles FLASH and the Sovereign-class starship SHOOTS into the distance, disappearing into a BURST OF LIGHT.

LT. SITO [confused]: John, the coordinates you have indicated do not appear to be a vital system.

CAPT. MARTIN: Admiral, you needed the Enterprise and her weapons in this battle and you saw how much we were needed we rallied the fleet to target the same area where Admiral Picard targeted the cube that attacked in 2373.
