INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE CAPTAIN'S QUARTERS
John is sitting on his couch reading a good book when the com activates.
CMDR. IVANOVA [com voice]: Captain we're receiving a hail from Starfleet its Admiral Austin
CAPT. BRANSON [to com]: Patch to my quarters.
On the wall monitor the office of Admiral Joseph Austin appears on screen.
CAPT. BRANSON: Admiral Austin what can I do for you?
ADM. AUSTIN [wall monitor]: Captain Branson I am diverting you from your current course to Prospero system where you'll rendezvous with the U.S.S. Kelcie Mae, with is delivering an Ambassador to you
CAPT. BRANSON: Uh, sir the Enterprise just completed an exhausting mission. We're on our way in for R and R. There must be another starship in that sector. 
ADM. AUSTIN [wall monitor]: Negative. This is a high priority
John hangs his head but recollects himself.
CAPT. BRANSON: Aye, sir.
ADM. AUSTIN [monitor]: Austin out
Transmission ends as John is disappointed that he'll have to tell the crew that there won't be any shore leave today.
CAPT. BRANSON [to com]: Branson to bridge alter course to the Prospero system.
CMDR. IVANOVA [com voice]: Aye, sir
EXT-PROSPERO SYSTEM
Enterprise emerges from warp and approaches the fourth planet.
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE DECK 6 CORRIDOR
John approaches the transporter room wearing his dress uniform as he walks to the doors he checks his uniform out and breathes and the doors opened.
CUT TO:
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE TRANSPORTER ROOM
He sees both Commander Ivanova and Lieutenant Mason both in full dress uniform as Chief Mackenzie reports.
CHIEF MACKENZIE: Captain the Kelcie is signaling the Ambassador is ready to be beamed aboard.
CAPT. BRANSON: Then by all means chief energize.
Chief Mackenzie inputs commands into the transporter console and activates the transporter, and the Ambassador materialized onto the pad as the Ensign blew the boatswain whistle.
CAPT. BRANSON: Ambassador Dak'Rah, Son of Ra'Ul, it is my honor to welcome you aboard the USS Enterprise.
AMBASSADOR RAH: It's just Rah. Formal Klingon names are a mouthful. What is that peculiar device?
CAPT. BRANSON: Ah, yes the boatswain whistle. An old Earth custom from the time of ships at sea. It's become somewhat of a tradition here on Enterprise for our most distinguished guests.
AMBASSADOR RAH: Uh, I see. Kind of like rolling the red carpet out?
CAPT. BRANSON [Chuckles]: Yes. Yes, exactly like that. We want to extend every courtesy the ship has to offer. This is my XO Commander Zhasa Ivanova and my head of security Lieutenant Jack Mason he'll be your escort while you're onboard the Enterprise.
LT. MASON: Ambassador would you like to go to your quarters and get some rest?
AMBASSADOR RAH: Captain Branson, if you wouldn't mind, I've heard so many great things about the Federation flagship. Could I trouble you for a brief tour of the ship?
Captain Branson looks over at his two officers.
CAPT. BRANSON: It's no trouble at all Ambassador.
They leave the transporter room.
CUT TO:
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE MAIN BRIDGE
Commander Clarkson presently holding the conn is uneasy as well.
LT. SMITH: Kyle, you're gritting your teeth.
LTCMDR. CLARKSON: Sorry, it just feels strange that we're escorting the enemy.
LT. SMITH: He defected remember.
LTCMDR. CLARKSON: I know Klingons Julia I've fought them in the Four Years War.
LT. SMITH: But this Klingon defected from the Empire and look at the list of accomplishments he made, The Summit of Scorpi Ten, the Klingon Free-Trade Agreement, negotiating the Perez Accords.
Commander Clarkson looks at her.
LTCMDR. CLARKSON: Sure, he's done some stuff.
Lieutenant Smith still facing him.
LT. SMITH: He's an effective voice in spreading Starfleet's message for unity. A former enemy speaking on our behalf? It's incredible.
LTCMDR. CLARKSON: Or it's a long con to gain access to Federation secrets.
LT. CARLSON: I agree.
LT. SMITH: Come on you guys just because he's Klingon.
LTCMDR. CLARKSON: Julia you were just a cadet during the war me and John fought them the massacre of Archanis Station, the Ambush of Inverness V, the destruction of the U.S.S. Gulliver.
LT. SMITH: I didn't mean to hit a nerve.
LTCMDR. CLARKSON: It's okay. You're right. I don't really know what he's about. All I know is the stories, like that he killed his own men to cover his retreat. There's a reason other Klingons call him the Butcher of J'Gal.
The turbo-lift doors opened as the group comes out at the last word.
CMDR. IVANOVA: CAPTAIN ON THE BRIDGE!
The crew comes to attention as Kyle realizes that the Ambassador is behind him and he awkwardly comes to attention, as Ambassador Rah is observing the bridge and sees the viewer.
AMBASSADOR RAH: What an amazing view. A Bird-of-Prey isn't built to take in its surroundings. Klingons will never admit it, but the Federation has much better ships.
CAPT. BRANSON [smiles]: We're all very proud of her as a matter of fact my friend here Lieutenant Commander Kyle Clarkson was one of the chief designers of the Enterprise.
John pats Kyle's shoulder.
LTCMDR. CLARKSON: I mostly designed the engineering components but like her sisters she's designed for not only combat but exploration missions.
AMBASSADOR RAH: Most impressive Mister Clarkson Captain, may we continue the tour? I don't want to distract your bridge crew from their duties.
CAPT. BRANSON: Sure, as you all were.
They leave the bridge as the crew resumes their work and Kyle sits in the Captain's Chair.
LT. SMITH: That was smooth.
Kyle looks over at her.
CUT TO:
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE MESS HALL
Lieutenants T'Lar and Mitchell are at the bar attempting to reproduce raktajino, a caffeinated beverage popular on Qo'noS, in anticipation of Rah's arrival.
LT. MITCHELL: This one is cold and this one is to bland.
LT. T'LAR [raises an eyebrow]: Logic has helped me in many ways but this is very difficult and if I were human I would say "This sucks".
He looks over her.
LT. T'LAR: If I were human.
Mitchell pats her shoulder.
LT. MITCHELL: I hoped years working at my dad's bar on Earth would prepare me to make this before the Ambassador arrives.
The doors opened as T'Lar sees them.
LT. T'LAR: Logic dictates that you may not have much time.
Mitchell sees the group.
LT. MITCHELL: Ah, hell.
CAPT. BRANSON: Ambassador this is Lieutenants Mitchell and T'Lar they're part of my senior bridge crew and they've got a surprise for your arrival.
LT. MITCHELL: Yes, sir we've been attempting to recreate the popular Klingon drink known as raktajino.
The cup comes out scalding hot, burning Rah's hand, but he takes it in good stride.
CMDR. IVANOVA: Ambassador are you alright?
AMBASSADOR RAH [nods]: I'm fine. One good thing about Klingons, we have a high tolerance for pain.
CAPT. BRANSON: Still, if you would indulge me. Right this way, ambassador.
They head to sickbay.
CUT TO:
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE SICKBAY
NURSE CHAPEL: Our dermal regenerator will patch that up in no time. It will be good as new.
AMBASSADOR RAH: Thank you Nurse.
She looks at him.
NURSE CHAPEL: Christine Chapel.
Doctor Carlson walks out of his office and sees the Klingon and flashes of the war start flooding his mind.
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE SICKBAY, DOCTOR CARLSON'S OFFICE
He sits in the chair heavily breathing and sweating as we hear the thumping of a heart beat and the sound of red alert klaxons.

INT-U.S.S. CONSTITUTION SICKBAY DOCTOR'S OFFICE
Ensign Steven Carlson enters the office looking for the chief medical officer and Doctor John Caffey shows up.
DR. CAFFEY: What's your name?
ENS. CARLSON: Steven Carlson sir.
They shook hands.
DR. CAFFEY: Welcome to the Constitution and the frontlines of the war.
ENS. CARLSON: Thank you sir.
CAPT. JONES [com voice]: All hands rig for departure
Steven sighs as he is amazed by his new posting.
EXT-WARP TUNNEL
Enterprise speeds to Starbase 12.
DR. CARLSON'S [voice over]: Chief Medical Officer's Log, USS Enterprise, stardate 1875.8. Bio-bed two has shut down again Ever since the Chakuun attack, it hasn't been the same
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE SICKBAY
Doctor Carlson is repairing the bio-bed as the doors opened and he turns to see Captain Branson.
DR. CARLSON: John? What do I owe the pleasure of your visit usually its me coming to you for a check up.
JOHN: Do you have any more of that Deltan parsley in your apothecary?
STEVEN: Careful. Deltan parsley is deadly in excessive amounts.
JOHN: And in small amounts, delicious.
STEVEN [Chuckles softly]: You could have just called. Or sent a yeoman.
JOHN: Mm-hm. I wanted to check in with you. Because of our Klingon visitor? I know you and Chapel were both stationed onboard the U.S.S. Constitution when she was near the Prospero system, where Rah earned his reputation. Apparently, there was a minor protest during his last transport, so we have direct orders. Klingon War veterans need to interact with Rah. We have to make him feel welcome here, and we will, but I don't want that to come at the personal expense of anyone on the crew.
Steven leans on another bio-bed.
STEVEN: John, you fought in the war you saw the death and destruction the Empire caused he led most of the invasion forces.
JOHN: How's Chapel.
Then Christine enters.
JOHN: Hey, there Christine how are you feeling?
CHRISTINE: I'm fine Captain.
JOHN: Good because I need you two to remain professional as you've always have been when we've had guests I know this is tough for you both but I need you two.
STEVEN: We get it John act professional.
JOHN: Great. Good to hear it. Ultimate goal of the Federation is to make peace with our enemies.
STEVEN: True, but it's also an organization that waged war with the Klingons.
			
JOHN: As I mentioned, we have orders from pretty up high. I'm hosting a dinner tonight in honor of Ambassador Rah. It would mean a lot
STEVEN: I'll be there.
CHRISTINE: Totally. me too.
JOHN [Smiles]: Good to hear.
He leaves sickbay.
STEVEN: That's just swell.
He paces about.
CHRISTINE: We can ditch this?
STEVEN: No, John needs us there and I am not giving Rah the satisfaction of chasing me away from the Captain's table.
CHRIISTINE: We've got this.
STEVEN [smiles]: We've got this.

ENS. CARLSON: What do we do?

WOMAN [OVER P.A.]: Attention, all personnel. Tactical reviews have been updated and are available on your personal datapad
Doctor Carlson is walking to the Captain's quarters as he sees Kyle outside the doors.
DR. CARLSON: Kyle, is everything alright?
KYLE: No. The Butcher of J'Gal is in there, and everyone's acting like he's the freaking Dalai Lama. I've got a bad poker face when I don't like someone. I need to bail.
STEVEN: Why didn't you tell the Captain no?
KYLE: John makes the best roast in the quadrant it would be illogical not to be at his table but not if the Ambassador is there.
STEVEN: He asked me and Christine to be here.
Kyle looks over at him.
KYLE: I know I was raised by Vulcans but something about him can't allow me to suppress this feeling.
They enter the Captain's quarters.
CUT TO:
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE CAPTAIN'S QUARTERS MAIN AREA
The senior staff are having dinner with the Ambassador.
AMBASSADOR RAH: There were eight delegates from three separate planets, and everyone thought I was crazy. And maybe I am.
CMDR. IVANOVA: Why did the Federation send you there alone?
AMBASSADOR RAH: Convincing Prospero Alpha to agree to an armistice was like getting a Tellarite to give a compliment.
At the otherside of the table Christine and Kyle are getting drinks.
CHRISTINE: How are you holding up?
KYLE: I'm alright just keeping my cool.
CHRISTINE: I just wish he would shut up for one second about all this amazing peace he's managed. 
LT. MASON: I can help with that he's not wrong. I was stationed near Prospero. They are pretty stubborn.
They go back to the table.
CAPT. BRANSON: I'm sorry that my chief engineer Lieutenant Commander Williams couldn't join us she's on leave visiting family on Earth.
AMBASSADOR RAH: It's quite alright it is an honor to be the first Klingon Ambassador aboard a Federation vessel without armor nor a disruptor and a squad of honorable warriors.
That statement makes Lieutenant Mason a bit uneasy.
LT T'LAR: Ambassador Rah, are you familiar with the ancient Earth text Sun Tzu's The Art of War?
AMBASSADOR RAH: All Klingon children learn mL'parmaq Qoj practically from birth. I was introduced when I was seven. My father taught me war and bloodshed, but my mother taught
me to see and feel
[CONVERSATION CONTINUES INDISTINCTLY] 
Doctor Carlson goes to get something to bring.
STEVEN: Make mine a double.
Christine makes the two drinks.
CHRISTINE: Why are we here?
STEVEN: It was at the request of the Captain.
CHRISTINE: I know.
They rejoin the rest of the senior staff the dinner is proceeding nicely but something boils in Kyle's heart and mind know that a member of the people that took his mother and father's life is right next to him.
AMBASSADOR RAH: The negotiations almost fell apart when the chancellor said to me, "How is it that a Klingon is speaking on behalf of the Federation?"
CAPT. BRANSON: That's a good question how did you respond?
AMBASSADOR RAH: I simply told him the truth. Who I am and who I was. And what the Federation did for me. It saved my life. J'Gal changed me. 
CAPT. BRANSON: J'Gal changed a lot of us. 
AMBASSADOR RAH: You were on J'Gal?
CAPT. BRANSON: No, my ship was in the sector the U.S.S. Kongo a Constitution-Class vessel same design as the Enterprise.
LT. MASON: I was at the massacre of the Athos colony on J'Gal.
AMBASSADOR RAH: Then you both know my pain all too well. Those were difficult times. After what happened on Athos, my ideals shifted. The fighting was without merit. It was pointless. War is never the ideal option.
Captain Branson leans forward.
CAPT. BRANSON: Ambassador is it true the story about how you escaped from J'Gal?
AMBASSADOR RAH: We were all pushed to our limits. To the survivors of J'Gal.
They raise their glasses.
ALL: To the survivors of J'Gal.
AMBASSADOR RAH: [SPEAKS KLINGON]
CAPT. BRANSON: "We are Klingon, may we endure"?
			
KYLE: "Remain Klingon." Remember that?
AMBASSADOR RAH [nods]: Yes it was our battle cry during the war. "Remain Klingon" is much easier to shout in our language.
Kyle sips his scotch.
KYLE: I was uh onboard the Kongo with John before the war started then we heard your battle cry all over the coms and then [CLICKS TONGUE] Boom. All your friends are dead.
CMDR. IVANOVA: Commander stand down.
AMBASSADOR RAH [remains calm]: Let us all step back.
KYLE: I-I've heard worse.
			
AMBASSADOR RAH: Now I am simply hoping to make up for my past, and-and connecting with others who need healing like you.
Kyle scoffs and leaves not wanting to hear another word.
CHRISTINE: I'm going to go see if he needs anything.
Christine leaves and follows close behind them.
CAPT. BRANSON: My sincere apologies, Ambassador Rah I've known Kyle since we both entered the Academy, I've never seen him act like this with a official such as yourself.
Rah puts his hand up.
AMBASSADOR RAH: None are needed, Captain. As I said, I bear no grudge.
CAPT. BRANSON: Uh, h-he will find his own way to peace.

CAPT. BRANSON: Julia, inform them of that.
LT. SMITH: Aye, sir.
She works at her console.
CMDR. IVANOVA: Is everything alright John.
CAPT. BRANSON: Just worried about Kyle that's all he's just been through so much I feel like I am putting too much pressure on him with our guest aboard.

INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE GYM
Kyle is punching a punching bag as the doors opened and John entered.
JOHN: You missed the weekly engineering meeting.
Kyle stops and turns to him.
KYLE: Sorry just got a lot on my mind right now.
JOHN: This isn't about our guest is it?
KYLE: John, why did Starfleet chose us to ferry him to Starbase 12? Why couldn't they call Jessica and her crew to do this mission?
JOHN: We're the flagship of the Federation forces and Fleet Admiral Ozawa wanted the best of the best to escort him back to Starbase 12.
Kyle untapes his fists.
KYLE: So, we're a taxi service?
JOHN: We have our orders Kyle you know that.
Kyle wipes the sweat from his forehead.
KYLE: You should of fought against it.

JOHN: Yeah, but I didn't see my parent's dead bodies in the coffins after the Archanis IV Massacre, Starfleet should of known about this the fact that they're making me put Kyle through so much it's like they don't care.
JESSICA [monitor]: Well, Kyle I handling it well
JOHN [sighs]: I know Jess I am just worried.

CAPT. BRANSON: What's this?
CMDR. IVANOVA [re: PADD]: A course through the Chantico Nebula. Gets us to Starbase 12 by tomorrow.
CAPT. BRANSON: Chantico?
CMDR. IVANOVA: John, we need to get Rah off this ship. Crew morale is low.
CAPT. BRANSON [sighs]: How can we represent a Federation that believes in peace if we say some people aren't allowed to make up for their past?
Commander Ivanova sits in the chair facing the desk.
CMDR. IVANOVA: I agree with you, in the abstract, but the people he hurt, some of them right here in this crew, might not find forgiveness so easily. It isn't fair for us to ask them to just let it go. Federation or not, everyone is on their own journey.
John thinks then looks at her.
CAPT. BRANSON: Okay, change course, cut through Chantico Nebula and arrive early.
Then the com activates.
NURSE CHAPEL [com voice]: I need security to Sickbay on the double

CAPT. BRANSON: Tell us what happened in sickbay.
NURSE CHAPEL: I was there. Saw the whole thing. Rah wanted to talk, but Steven was done. He told Rah he didn't want to be involved with a war criminal. Guess hearing that set him off. I can't believe he would do something like this.
COMPUTER: Commander Kiff, Klingon, deceased. Captain Ruh'lis, Klingon, deceased. Ambassador Dak'Rah, Klingon, deceased
LT. MASON: The knife belongs to the Butcher of J'Gal, right? Starfleet records tell us the DNA belongs to the three warlords he killed. And I checked the logs, tracked movements. They corroborate the timeline.
CAPT. BRANSON [surprised]: I just can't believe that Ambassador Rah would do that.
LT. MASON: Goes to show you that not all Klingons are peaceful.
CAPT. BRANSON [sighs]: One day we'll have to get over our hatred towards one another and come together as friends.
