STANO: We arrived in this sector after receiving a distress call from a Federation cargo vessel, it wasn't till we realized that we flew into a trap set by the Klingons we dispatched 2 D7-class warbirds but we didn't know that 4 more were on the way and we were in a running fire fight with the Klingons.
LTJG. T'LAR: This is the first time we have heard about Klingons faking distress calls to lure Federation vessels into their border.
LTCMDR. STANO: Maybe since the four years war they've changed tactics?
LTJG. MITCHELL: Its possible they could of been studying our tactics since the war.
LTCMDR. STANO: If that's true then we're in trouble.
CUT TO:
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE CAPTAIN'S READY ROOM/SITUATION ROOM [YELLOW ALERT]
On the wall monitor is Rear Admiral Heihachiro Nogura in his office on Starbase 47.
REAR ADM. NOGURA [monitor]: It's good that Captain Branson and the crew of the Enterprise was in the area
CAPT. KHATAMI: Yes, sir it's a good thing they were in the sector.
REAR ADM. NOGURA [monitor]: It's strange that the Klingons resorted to this kind of tactic
CAPT. BRANSON: Yes, sir it is strange.
REAR ADM. NOGURA [monitor]: Hopefully we can expect the Endeavour back here at Starbase Vanguard soon
CAPT. KHATAMI: Same here sir.
CAPT. BRANSON: What's the situation at Vanguard sir?
Admiral Nogura puts his hands on his desk and interlaces his fingers and sighs.
REAR ADM. NOGURA [monitor]: I'm not going to lie to you John it isn't good here we're currently keeping the peace by a thread ever since Commodore Reyes's betrayal from Starfleet we are barely keeping the peace here
CAPT. BRANSON: Sorry to hear that sir.
REAR ADM. NOGURA [monitor]: Keep me posted Nogura out
Transmission ends as Captain Khatami turns to Captain Branson.

Repair teams from the Enterprise are in the background as both Captain Branson and Captain Khatami are at the helm and navigational stations.
CAPT. BRANSON: I couldn't help but notice your crew calls you by your first name. 
CAPT. KHATAMI: When you've been in the trenches as long as we have, rank and protocol are luxuries. Besides, we're a long way from Starfleet Command.
CAPT. BRANSON: True.
CAPT. KHATAMI: You seem to run a pretty tight ship. 
CAPT. BRANSON: I've learned from Fleet Captain Pike to let the hair down a few times, and I find that maintaining protocol reminds us of where we came from.
CAPT. KHATAMI: I'd like to ask you something, Captain to Captain. 
CAPT. BRANSON: Shoot.
CAPT. KHATAMI: The Prime Directive. How often have you broken it for the sake of protecting your crew? 
Captain Branson leans on the station.
CAPT. BRANSON: Broken it? Never. Bent it on occasion. And even then it was a difficult choice. What about you?
CAPT. KHATAMI: I've walked the line once or twice, but nothing serious. There you are. 
[Khatami finds the Endeavor's dedication plaque on the floor and picks up dusting it off.]
CAPT. BRANSON [smiles]: It's a good omen. Let's put it back where it belongs. 
They go to put the plaque back on the bulkhead.

LTJG. T'LAR: I detected this blip at the edge of our sensors a few minutes ago.
CAPT. BRANSON: Have you been able to ID the strange blip?
LTJG. T'LAR: It is too far out to get a good reading but it is inside the Klingon border.
LTCMDR. STANO: So it could be a Klingon warbird pacing us.
LTJG. T'LAR: It is possible Commander.
Captain Branson crosses his arms.
CAPT. BRANSON: If it is the Klingons I don't get why they're not making a full run at us.
LTCMDR. IVANOVA: Maybe they don't want to take on two Constitution-class cruisers?
CAPT. BRANSON: Maybe but keep an eye on the blip if it changes course let me know.
LTJG. T'LAR [nods]: Aye, sir.
Camera shows the unknown blip on T'Lar's station screen.
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE MAIN ENGINEERING [YELLOW ALERT]
One of the console screens shows the U.S.S. Endeavor and red marks show the battle damage.
LT. WILLIAMS: Alright, these red marks show hull breaches on decks 4, 5, and 14 emergency force fields are in place, but as far as we know the power grid is fluctuating.
LTJG. PAYNE: So what are we going to do?
LT. WILLIAMS: We'll avoid those decks till we get to Starbase 22 for a full work over of the Endeavor.
She picks up a PADD.
LT. WILLIAMS: Burt's, Ashmore you two will be working on restoring power to the starboard nacelle that's where Lieutenants T'Lar and Mitchell found Commander Mog.
They take the PADD and head to the transporter room.
LT. WILLIAMS: Myers, Rivers you two will be in the impulse reactor control room to restore the Endeavor's impulse engines so we're not overtaxing our tractor beam power.
They take the PADD.
LT. WILLIAMS: Harris you'll be on the bridge with engineering repair team restoring power to the bridge.
LTJG. PAYNE [nods]: Yes, Lieutenant.
He also heads to the transporter room as Stephanie looks over the image of the Endeavor and the damage she has sustained as Commander Mog enters and walks over to Lieutenant Williams.
LTCMDR. MOG: Are you Lieutenant Williams?
She turns to face him.
LT. WILLIAMS [nods]: Yes, sir I am and you must be Lieutenant Commander Mog.
They shook hands.
LTCMDR. MOG: I am impressed by how nice your engine room is.
LT. WILLIAMS: Yeah we have made some improvements to our engines.
He looks at the screen showing the damage to the Endeavor.
LTCMDR. MOG [sighs]: My poor girl.
LT. WILLIAMS: We'll restore her to what she was before the Klingons ambushed her.
LTCMDR. MOG: I'm just glad that the Enterprise was in the sector.
They continue looking over the schematics of the U.S.S. Endeavor.
EXT-FEDERATION/KLINGON BORDER
Enterprise continues to tow the Endeavor as the unknown contact is tailing the two vessels.

LTCMDR. IVANOVA: We can't handle this large battlegroup with deflectors at that status.
CAPT. BRANSON: Can we warp?
ENS. CARLSON: Not with the Endeavor in the tractor beam we'd tear her apart.
Captain Branson thinks knowing that if he engaged the Klingon forces his ship will either be disabled or destroyed, he remembers what Chris taught him as his first officer and he turns to Ensign Carlson.
CAPT. BRANSON: Kara, get us out of here warp 5.
ENS. CARLSON: But sir with the Endeavor in the tractor beam we'd risk tearing her apart.
CAPT. BRANSON: Not if we form our warp bubble around her as well.
Captain Branson sits in the Captain's chair.
CAPT. BRANSON [to com]: Bridge to engineering Steph divert whatever power we can spare to our warp bubble we're going to put it around the Endeavor.
