INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE MAIN BRIDGE
Commander Kal sits in the Captain's chair while Captain Martin is in his ready room.
LTCMDR. KAL: What's our ETA to the Romulan Neutral Zone?
Lieutenant Kaye checks her console and reports.
LT. KAYE: We're about an hour away from the Zone.
Then Lieutenant Mason reports.
LT. MASON: Commander I'm getting a distress call in a nearby sector.
Commander Kal turns to him at tactical.
LTCMDR. KAL: Let's hear it.
Lieutenant Mason inputs commands into his console and the distress call comes over the speakers.
CAPT. LAVESQUE [com voice]: This Captain Pria----I'm caught in a-----need assistance to any Starfleet ships in range I'm-----
LTCMDR. KAL: Jamie alter course.
LT. KAYE: Aye, Commander.
LTCMDR. KAL: Inform them we're on our way [to com] Captain Martin report to the bridge we're receiving a distress call.
CUT TO:
EXT-FEDERATION SPACE
The Enterprise emerges from warp and a Asteroid is heading towards the sun.
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE MAIN BRIDGE
Transparent viewer shows the asteroid.
LT. MASON: A Sun Driver.
LT. KAYE: A what?
LT. SITO: A Sun diver is a asteroid that got caught in the gravitational pull of a star. It basically makes a kamikaze dive until it is vaporized by the heat. 
CAPT. MARTIN: Have you located the vessel?
Commander T'Mir works at her console and reports.
LTCMDR. T'MIR: Its embedded in the rock.
CAPT. MARTIN: On screen.
Transparent viewer shows the mining vessel.
CAPT. MARTIN: Are you still detecting the bio-sign?
LTCMDR. T'MIR: Yes, sir.
LT. SITO: Same here but we can't beam her out too much interference.
CAPT. MARTIN: Jack, open a channel.
Lieutenant Mason inputs commands into the tactical console.
LT. MASON: They're responding now.
CAPT. MARTIN [to com]: Mining ship this John Martin Captain of the Federation Starship U.S.S. Enterprise we're responding to your distress call can you hear me?
On the viewer a beautiful woman appears.
CAPT. LAVESQUE [viewer]: I'm Captain Pria Lavesque of the mining ship Horizon Enterprise thank god you're here I'm in trouble down here
CAPT. MARTIN: What's your life support status?
CAPT. LAVESQUE [viewer]: Its on-line for now but its getting really, really hot in here
Captain Martin looks at Commander Kal then back to the viewer.
CAPT. MARTIN: Captain Lavesque standby we're getting you out of there.
She nods and channel closes.
CAPT. MARTIN: I need a plan and I don't care how far outside the box it is.
LTCMDR. KAL: Could we use a shuttle?
LTCMDR. T'MIR: You're gonna need a really good pilot to pull it off the gravity well is too strong it would overwhelm the shuttle's engines.
LTCMDR. KAL: A tractor beam?
LT. SITO: Won't be able to get a solid lock onto the vessel.
Then Lieutenant Mason chimes in.
LT. MASON: What about our phasers we could cut her out and then lock the tractor beam onto it and pull it into the shuttlebay.
Martin turns to T'Mir.
CAPT. MARTIN: Could it work?
LTCMDR. T'MIR: Its possible but we'd have to get close.
Captain Martin sits in the captain's chair.
CAPT. MARTIN: Let's bring it Jamie take us in full impulse speed.
LT. KAYE: Aye, sir.

INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE SICKBAY
Doctor Langford is treating Pria's wounds as Captain Martin and Commander Kal enter.
DR. LANGFORD: What the hell were you doing trying to land on a comet? 
Pria snickers.
CAPT. LAVESQUE: Oh, I was returning from a mining expedition in the Matar system, and I encountered a Romulan battle cruiser. 
Both Captain Martin and Commander Kal look at each other as they're listening to her story.
CAPT. MARTIN: Well we're near the Neutral zone and they like taking over sectors that are near their space and field of vision.
CAPT. LAVESQUE: After I lost the cruiser I needed to stop somewhere to make repairs so an asteroid was the best solution.
LTCMDR. KAL: Well luckily we were in the sector.
CAPT. LAVESQUE (Nods): Thank you Captain.
CAPT. MARTIN: Don't mention it.
They leave sickbay as Doctor Langford continues to treat Pria's wounds.

The Enterprise is at impulse.
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE MAIN BRIDGE
Captain Martin sits in the Captain's chair thinking as Commander Kal turns to him.
LTCMDR. KAL: Are you alright John?
He turns to her.
CAPT. MARTIN [sighs]: Just thinking about our guest how could she not know that the rock was heading for the sun to get baked like a baked potato, even after fleeing from a Romulan battle cruiser.
LTCMDR. KAL: Maybe she didn't know that it was heading towards the star.
CAPT. MARTIN: True, where's Jack isn't he suppose to on duty at tactical?
They see one of the security officers is at tactical.
LTCMDR. KAL: He's giving Pria a tour of the ship.
CUT TO:
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE MAIN ENGINEERING
Both Lieutenant Mason and Pria enters.
LT. MASON: And this is main engineering where all the ship's main propulsion systems are worked on and monitored by an engineering team.
PRIA: Impressive.
Commander James sees the pair as she puts down one of the engineering tools and walks over to them.
LTCMDR. JAMES: Lieutenant?
LT. MASON: Courtney the Captain has asked me to give Pria a tour of the ship.
PRIA: An impressive design of engines Commander.
LTCMDR. JAMES [smiles]: Thank you can you excuse us for a moment.
The two officers walk out of ear shot of Pria.
LTCMDR. JAMES: What the hell are you doing Jack?
LT. MASON: My job Courtney.
LTCMDR. JAMES: We just met this girl and already you're getting her a tour of the ship, this is part of our key systems what if she's a Romulan spy?
LT. MASON: If she was a Klingon spy we'd be dead by now.
Pria gets a device out and puts the device into one of the circuit boards and closes the panel and walks over to see them still chatting.
COURTNEY: Just be careful something isn't right.
They walk back to where Pria was standing.
LTCMDR. JAMES: Like what you see?
CAPT. LAVESQUE (Nods): Yeah its a big engine.
They shook hands and they leave main engineering as Commander James is worried about her husband.
EXT-FEDERATION-ROMULAN NEUTRAL ZONE BORDER
Enterprise is on patrol.
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE PRIA'S QUARTERS
The doors opened and Commander James enters and gets out her tricorder and starts scanning every square millimeter of her quarters then goes into the bed room area and lifts the bed mattress up.
LTCMDR. JAMES: Hello.
She picks up the strange looking rectangle as scans it.
LTCMDR. JAMES [to herself]: What are you little guy?
She scans it but the tricorder doesn't recognize it she leaves the quarters with it then Pria comes out and smirks.

INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE CAPTAIN'S READY ROOM/SITUATION ROOM
Captain Martin looks at Lieutenant Commander James.
CAPT. MARTIN: I can't believe it you did an unauthorized search of Captain Lavesque's quarters?
LTCMDR. JAMES: That's how it seems sir.
CAPT. MARTIN: You a are senior officer onboard the Flagship of the Federation fleet, and you're making a bad example for this crew and for this ship and if I hear anything like this again you will no longer be chief engineer onboard this vessel and I'm putting a formal reprimand in your record Commander.
LTCMDR. JAMES: Yes, sir permission to speak freely sir?
CAPT. MARTIN: Granted.
LTCMDR. JAMES: Captain, Jack isn't thinking straight he's smitten with our guest.
CAPT. MARTIN: Ok but that shouldn't give you the right to do that Courtney.
LTCMDR. JAMES: Captain I found something under her bed its a rectangular shape.
CAPT. MARTIN: Oh my god you found a rectangular shape let's go to red alert and alert Starfleet Command then.
Then the ship is struck by something as klaxon blares as both Captain Martin and Commander James leaves.
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE MAIN BRIDGE [RED ALERT]
Klaxons blare.
CAPT. MARTIN: Report?
LT. KAYE: Unknown Captain there is nothing on sensors long or short. 
The ship jolts about again. 
CAPT. MARTIN: Really we're getting pounded by something?
WHUMPH! Then T'Mir figures it out.
LTCMDR. T'MIR: Captain, I believe we may have encountered a concentrated dark matter storm. 
LTCMDR. KAL: Is that a thing?
LTCMDR. T'MIR: There extremely rare. 
Another loud bang, then Pria walks onto the bridge. 
PRIA: Captain I can help. 
Martin turns to her. 
CAPT. MARTIN: How? 
She explains. 
PRIA: We encountered a dark matter storm on a mining expedition to Pollux 5. Adjust your weapons array to flood the area with neutralized axion particles. 
T'Mir chimes in. 
T'MIR: I never heard of something like that before. 
A loud bang is heard as sparks erupt from the ceiling. 
PRIA: Do it trust me. 
Martin thinks. 
CAPT. MARTIN [To T'Mir]: Do it T'Mir. 
T'Mir inputs commands into her console. 
LTCMDR. T'MIR: Engaging axion particles now. 
EXT-SPACE
The Enterprise floods the area with axion particles and massive bubbles surround the Sovereign-Class vessel. 
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE MAIN BRIDGE [RED ALERT]
Viewer shows the dark matter as Captain Martin gets up from the Captain's Chair in shock and awe. 
CAPT. MARTIN: My god, Jamie get us out of here impulse speed. 
Lieutenant Kaye inputs commands into the helm to get the ship out of the area. 
EXT-SPACE
The Enterprise tries to move but it rams a dark matter bubble. 
INT-USS ENTERPRISE MAIN BRIDGE [RED ALERT]

Sparks erupt from the ceiling.
LT. MASON: Sir! The impacts have severely weakened our deflectors, (beat) Structural damage is imminent.
WHUMPH!
CAPT. MARTIN: Jamie what are our options?
LT. KAYE: Captain, I've never even seen a dark matter storm, (beat) let alone flown through one. 
Pria chimes in. 
PRIA: I can do it. 
CAPT. MARTIN: Really? 
She nods. 
CAPT. MARTIN: Jamie?
LT. KAYE: Captain this is way beyond me if I was in a class-8 shuttle I could get out of here but this ship is too big. 
Another huge jolt rocks the ship harder as a huge shower of sparks erupt from the MSD and coolant vents from it, Mason looks at his console. 
LT. MASON [Worried off his console]: Shields have failed one more hit will finish us. 
Martin nods and Pria goes to the helm station as Kaye vacates the station for her she sits in the chair and she inputs commands into the console. 
EXT-DARK MATTER STORM
The Enterprise flies through the dark matter storm dodging several dark matter bubbles that almost hits the ship to take it out. 
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE MAIN BRIDGE [RED ALERT]
Pria is working on the helm station then Commander T'Mir reports.
LTCMDR. T'MIR: Captain we're coming towards a huge bubble of dark matter, (beat) if we don't take evasive action we'll be destroyed. 
Pria inputs commands into the helm. 
EXT-DARK MATTER STORM
The Enterprise goes between them and then exits the storm. 
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE MAIN BRIDGE
Lights brighten up as the crew breathes a sigh of relief.
CAPT. MARTIN: Nice work.
CMDR. KAL: Damage report?
LT. SITO: Communications arrays have been destroyed, but, otherwise, we are intact. 
LTCMDR. KAL: No com chatter?
Lieutenant Mason checks the console read out.
LT. MASON: We're completely in the dark Commander.
CAPT. MARTIN: We'll have to stop at Starbase Six for repairs.
LTCMDR. KAL: That's three days off course.
PRIA: Well you know, there's a Consortium base only a day away from here. I have some friends there, (beat) and I'm sure they'll be happy to refit your communications array. Plus, you can drop me off, I'll be out of your hair. It's the least I can do after everything you've done for me. 
CAPT. MARTIN: Well thanks put into the helm and we'll set a course you saved us a three day course correction.
Pria inputs commands into the helm station.
LT. MASON: Hey Pria I was hoping that I could swing by your quarters and help you fix anything that was knocked off your table when we were in that storm. 
She smiles. 
PRIA: Sure. 
She left the bridge as Mason sits at his console. 
CUT TO:
INT-USS ENTERPRISE GUEST QUARTERS
PRIA [smirks, to com]: Device works ready to bring ship to you now. 
EXT-SPACE
The Enterprise heads towards the Consortium base.
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE MESS HALL
The crew are having their meals after long shifts and that emergency with the dark matter storm, as Captain Martin sits with Commander Kal.
JOHN: And two cups of ale shaken not stirred.
JANE (smiles): Thanks.
They drink their ales.
JANE: Nice I was wondering why you chose me as your Xo over a bunch of other candidates?
JOHN: Well we worked together on Io Station so when I heard that you were the first officer and how Picard enjoyed your input into matters that weighed on him I knew I wanted you to remain.
Then the com activates.
LTCMDR. JAMES (com voice): Captain Martin and Commander Kal report to Main Engineering
They both are surprised and leave the mess hall.
CUT TO:
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE MAIN ENGINEERING
The pair both enter and walk over to where Commander James is at.
CAPT. MARTIN: Courtney report?
LTCMDR. JAMES: You're going to want to see this I was doing a routine check on the port power relays when I found this. 
She pulls out the circuit hatch and a rectangle shape object is between the chips. 
CAPT. BRANSON: Is that what you told me that you found in Pria's quarters?
LTCMDR. JAMES (nods): Yeah.
LTCMDR. KAL: Whatever it is it's hacked our firewalls, and learning about the ship.
CAPT. MARTIN: Can you remove it?
LTCMDR. JAMES: No we've tried its too wedged in there, we'd have to blow it out but we'd risk damaging the navigational array.
Captain Martin tapped his combadge.
CAPT. MARTIN [to com]: Security team meet us in Pria's quarters.
SECURITY OFFICER [com voice]: We're on our way sir
CUT TO:
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE PRIA'S QUARTERS

Doors chimed.
PRIA: Come in.
Doors whooshed opened and two security officers wearing tactical vests and armed with type-II phasers and type-3 phaser rifles.
LT. MASON: What's the meaning of this?
Then both Captain Martin and Commander Kal enter also wearing tactical vests and armed with type-2 phasers.
CAPT. MARTIN: Jack, step back from Pria.
LT. MASON: Why?
CAPT. MARTIN: She's been messing with our power systems. 
Jack turns to Pria and steps back gets out his type-2 phaser from its holster.
LT. MASON: What's going on?
PRIA [smirks]: I guess the cat's out of the bag. 
CAPT. MARTIN (to Pria): What the hell is going on, we found something in one of our isolinear control hatches. 
PRIA (Smiles): That's an interesting piece of technology that I brought with me with a few commands it can pilot a ship, that's how I was able to fly your ship through that dark matter storm. 
She inputs commands into a device on her forearm. 
CUT TO:
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE MAIN ENGINEERING
As James is studying the device it activates.

INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE PRIA'S QUARTERS
Captain Branson, Commander Kal, Lieutenant Mason are still in shock and awe at what Pria said.
PRIA: What you people can't believe it? 
LTCMDR. KAL: You're telling us you came back in time to save our lives, why? 
She rolls her eyes. 
PRIA: I'm afraid it wasn't your lives I wanted to save, it was your ship. 
They're surprised by what she said. 
CAPT. MARTIN (Sighs): Wait, if you really are from the future, what possible use could the Enterprise be to you? 
She sips her drink. 
PRIA (Smirks): I'm a dealer in artifacts mint condition, mostly I sell to private collectors I and others who do what I do. Travel back to a specific time and place in which, say, a ship like yours was destroyed I prevent the destruction, then I take the ship into the future and I sell it to the highest bidder. 
LTCMDR. KAL: What about the crews of those ships what happen to them?
She looks at them.
PRIA: Well, they're free to live out their lives as they see fit in the 29th century. 
Martin chimes in. 
CAPT. MARTIN: Wait, we rescued you all of us were in danger. What about the comet? 
Pria leans back on the bulkhead of her quarters. 
PRIA: A set up to get you to trust me we were never in any real danger, we can do things in my time that well, you're gonna find out for yourself.

Chief Williams disconnects some audio systems in the computer. 
LTCMDR. JAMES: That's it. I've disconnected the visual and audio pickups. We can talk without being monitored by the computer.
CAPT. MARTIN: Alright we've got an hour before we enter Romulan Space I don't want to fight my way out of their space, so I want options to how to disable the object without damaging our navigational array. 
LTCMDR. JAMES: I could hit it with an electro magnetic pulse on a low setting, (beat) give me a few minutes to work it out and I'll get back to you.
LTCMDR. T'MIR: The frequencies of the burst and the device will need to be focused on it or it will destroy us.

INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE MAIN BRIDGE
The bridge crew are hanging on for dear life to the rails and their consoles, as the ship is jolting port to starboard and then stops.
CAPT. MARTIN: Report do we have control?
Both Sito and Kaye check their stations.
LT. KAYE: We had control for about a second but then lost it.
T'Mir reports.
LTCMDR. T'MIR: We're approaching some sort of rift.
CAPT. MARTIN: Show me.
Transparent viewer shows the quantum wormhole, as Pria beams onto the bridge as everyone is shocked.
LTCMDR. KAL: What the hell!
Two security guards come onto the bridge and aim their compression phaser rifles at Pria but she uses the device to have their weapons beamed away. 
PRIA: Sorry to barge in like this, it's just we're approaching the rendezvous point. 
Lieutenant Mason walks over to Pria.
LT. MASON: Pria give the Captain back control of the Enterprise please we have over 855 people who has lives in this timeline.
Pria turns to him.
PRIA: You don't get it you all died. If I let you go I'd be the one who altered the timeline. 
T'Mir reports.
LTCMDR. T'MIR: We're entering the anomaly now sir.

The viewer changes to the inside of the Binzian ship an alien floating. 
BUYER [viewer]: Poz shivik, Zars Lavesque. Shto kavak lo?
Pria looks at the crew. 
PRIA: Couple of scratches. Nothing that would affect the value in any significant way. Regardless, I'll be happy to negotiate the price. 
Surreptitiously, Martin signals Ivanova with a look. Kal nods, almost imperceptibly and inputs commands into her XO consoles. She nods at Sito who inputs commands into her console. 
BUYER (viewer): Shtak fehvor zemik, dosh mook fillory vem
Pria folds her arms. 
PRIA: Of course the ship has Photon Torpedoes as well as Quantum Torpedoes, and nobody's trying to stiff you here. 
While Pria's attention is focused on the viewer discussing the price with the buyer, Kal catches Mason's eye. Mason nods, works on his console. 
BUYER (on viewer): Pohzhy revost deck ferenos. Ofor feclis eez meseem
PRIA (Smiles); Always, Always like to keep the customer happy. 
Martin gives the signal. 
CAPT. MARTIN: NOW! 
Mason inputs commands into his console and closes the channel much to Pria's shock.

DR. LANGFORD (off screen): HE SAID WHAT!
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE CAPTAIN'S READY ROOM/SITUATION ROOM
Captain Martin is behind his desk.
CAPT. MARTIN: Picard wants the rift gone in fear that the Romulans would use it to screw up the timeline.
DR. LANGFORD: I maybe the chief medical officer but does he know that this could be the biggest discovery since we discovered warp drive?
CAPT. MARTIN: Yes he knows but he doesn't want the Romulans to get ahold of this rift and use it to exploit the future or worst alter the past to make them the rulers of the Alpha Quadrant.
Commander T'Mir has her hands behind her back.
LTCMDR. T'MIR: Peter he's right if my people get ahold of the rift they could change the timeline in their favor.
Then the doors chimed.
CAPT. MARTIN: Come.
Doors opened and Lieutenant Mason escorts Pria into the room.
CAPT. MARTIN: Can you give us two a minute.
They leave the ready room as Pria looks at him.
PRIA (smirks): I'm guessing your crew is having a issue with your orders to destroy the quantum rift?
CAPT. BRANSON: Yeah but I'm not having issues with it we're close to Romulan Space and they could use it for terrible ways, but if I close it now then they'll have nothing to gain tactically or warfare like.
She leans on his desk.
PRIA: Jack will always be alone John.
Captain Martin activates the com.
CAPT. MARTIN (to com): Martin to bridge, fire.
