EXT-FEDERATION-KLINGON NEUTRAL ZONE BORDER
The U.S.S. Enterprise is in formation with what's left of the second battlegroup, PULL BACK to REVEAL two more FEDERATION STARSHIPS, one of which is leaking plasma. PULL BACK even further to see several more SHIPS all looking battered and much the worse for wear. A couple of the ships are being towed, unable to proceed under their own power.
PULL BACK EVEN MORE to see the remainder of the 2nd battlegroup, The once-proud and powerful armada has been reduced by the ravages of war to a third of its original size.
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE MAIN BRIDGE
BRANSON, IVANOVA, CARLSON, SMITH, CLARKSON, MASON, MITCHELL ,and T'LAR are at their stations; the rest of the bridge crew is made up of SUPERNUMERARIES. Everyone looks gaunt and grim from three months of relentless fighting. Only Branson seems immune to the air of defeat that permeates the ship and its crew. He sits in the Captain's Chair, contained, in control -- ready to go another fifteen rounds with the dogs of war.
CAPT. BRANSON: T'Lar?
LTCMDR. T'LAR: Long range scanners show no sign of Klingon ships. Looks like they've broken off their pursuit.
LTCMDR. CLARKSON: Finally they've stopped following us, I guess they got tired of looking at our backs. Three months of bloody slaughter and what have we got to show for it? Not a damn thing. Engage, retreat, engage, retreat. Just once I would've liked to have gotten a look at their backs. 
Captain Branson turns to the Engineering console.
CAPT. BRANSON: Commander that's enough.
LTCMDR. CLARKSON: Sorry sir I'm just worn out and tired from being on duty for the last few days nothing a little bit of sleep can't cure.
LT. CARLSON: I think we all could use some sleep, (beat) it's been like what seventy-two hours?
LT. MITCHELL: Shouldn't we've heard from the 6th battlegroup?
LT. SMITH: I wouldn't worry Lieutenant the Donatu system is far from the frontlines.
LT. MITCHELL: Think they can defeat the Klingons?
LTCMDR. CLARKSON: Someone has to.
Captain Branson tenses up after hearing that.

INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE SICKBAY
Doctor Carlson and his staff are worn out from the wounded that has been coming in during the different battles the battlegroup have been thrown into by Starfleet Command to turn the tide of war.
CAPT. BRANSON: Report?
DR. CARLSON [sighs]: 14 crewmen lost their lives 6 were seriously wounded but they'll make it, most have radiation burns from the outer decks.
Captain Branson leans back on the bio-bed.
CAPT. BRANSON: We're proceeding to the nearest Starbase.
DR. CARLSON: That's good sir.
Then the doors open and Lieutenant Smith enters.
LT. SMITH: Captain we just received word from Starfleet Command we're to report to Starbase Six.
CAPT. BRANSON: Has Kara set a course?
She nods as she remains there.
CAPT. BRANSON: Something else Lieutenant?
LT. SMITH (sighs): Yes I have news of the Sixth Battlegroup.
CAPT. BRANSON [bracing himself for the news]: Well continue Julia.
She puts her hands behind her back.
LT. SMITH: Only fourteen ships made it back to our lines.
Captain Branson takes the new hard as Doctor Carlson can't believe what he just heard.
DR. CARLSON: Fourteen out of a hundred and twelve.
LT. SMITH (showing her anger) : Sir, we can't keep taking those kinds of losses not if we expect to win this!
CAPT. BRANSON: Thank you Lieutenant that will be all.
DR. CARLSON: Lieutenant you want me to take a look at that cut on your head.
LT. SMITH: Sure.
They head to the bio-beds as John can't believe what he heard and vents his anger on Carlson's desk after a beat, Branson takes a deep breath, and wills back his composure, refusing to give in to defeat. And on his look of utter defiance, we:

CAPT. BRANSON: Energize.

CAPT. BRANSON [surprised]: Admiral April sir what brings you aboard.
ADM. APRIL: I wanted to see the old girl and Admirals Garth and Slater were recalled to Earth to brief Starfleet Command on the Klingon situation so far.
They leave the transporter room.

Captain Branson, Commander Ivanova, and Admiral April enter the ready room.
ADM. APRIL: I'm glad to see you made it back in one piece, John.
CAPT. BRANSON: I was lucky. We lost a lot of good people.
ADM. APRIL [sighs]: Yes, we did. And we're going to lose a lot more before this is over.
CAPT. BRANSON [sighs]: I know sir.
Admiral April walks around the table.
ADM. APRIL: Have you ever thought about taking a promotion to Fleet Captain?
CAPT. BRANSON: No, sir I would rather remain aboard the Enterprise as a normal Captain.
ADM. APRIL [smiles]: Fair enough John I didn't want to leave the old girl myself but my wife was wanting a change from being aboard a Starship.
CMDR. IVANOVA: So, you're in command of this outpost sir?
ADM. APRIL [nods]: Yes, Starfleet Command reassigned both Admirals Slater and Garth to the core systems.
[The wall monitor shows the map of the Alpha and Beta Quadrants Federation Space, Romulan Space, and Klingon Space.]
ADM. APRIL: As you can see on the Klingon front with the severe damage to the 6th battlegroup we've lost the Donatu system, for now we're continuing to retreat but we're doing a fighting retreat.
CMDR. IVANOVA: It seems the Klingons are doing hit and run attacks on our forces.
ADM. APRIL: The Andorians and Tellarite forces as well as ours are attempting to make gains but the Klingons are dealing us some brutal defeats along the front.
CAPT. BRANSON: Something must be telling them about our forces and where they'll be at.
CMDR. IVANOVA: The question is what?

DR. CARLSON: How many Klingon warriors are there?
LTCMDR. T'LAR: 19 Klingon warriors in training.
LT. CARLSON I won't shed a tear.
CMDR. IVANOVA: How are we going to get there without them blowing the Enterprise to bits sir?
ADM. APRIL: You won't be needing the Enterprise because you'll be using this.
[The screen switches to live feed of a dry dock.]

CMDR. IVANOVA: We don't have any more time. We're about to take this ship into enemy territory. We don't want any slipups.
