CAPT. MARTIN: Well, the science division might be sending you a complaint for our cancelled expedition to a stellar nursery that they were itching to study.
ADM. ANTON [smiles]: I'll make it up to them but this will make you feel welcomed the Federation Council has authorized the conference and it's going to be here.
Admiral Anton looks at both Captain Martin and Commander Ro.
ADM. ANTON: That's why we asked for the Enterprise because we don't want the Romulans to try to put a stop to this conference.

LT. MASON: Two for two shifts, one take o-zero to twelve hundred, and second takes twelve hundred to twenty four hundred.
