VICE ADM. MARSHALL (monitor): Yes it would but I'm sending a expert in bombs to your position the USS Olympia is sending him to you 
Captain Branson is a bit unsettled from hearing that. 
CAPT. BRANSON: Uh sir Mr. Mason has the training and know how to do this his self, there's no reason to send an EOD expert here.

LTCMDR. BOLTON: Please to meet you Commander.
LTCMDR. KAL: I guess Captain Branson informed Starfleet?
LTCMDR. BOLTON: Yes, ma'am not a problem. Anytime I can help out the crew of the flagship with anything.
He gets his gear and struts off to the Krill mine, as both Commander Ivanova and Lieutenant Mason are a bit annoyed by his attitude as Lieutenant Commander Williams and her Engineering team are scanning the bomb when Commander Jones shows up with his gear. 
LTCMDR. BOLTON (Annoyed): What are you doing to this mine? 
LTCMDR. WILLIAMS: Scanning it very carefully cause it could be booby trapped. 
LTCMDR. BOLTON: You ae finished Chief petty officer I'll take it from here. 
LTCMDR. WILLIAMS: I'm not a chief petty officer I'm a Lieutenant Commander and chief engineer of the flagship of the Federation fleet, and we're the same rank so you can't order me around. 
He gets his gear. 
LTCMDR. BOLTON: Commander what does my box says on it? 
Steph looks at it. 
LTCMDR. WILLIAMS: Explosion Ordnance Demolition expert so? 
LTCMDR. BOLTON (Rolls his eyes, annoyed): It means that I'm a superior officer here, so why don't you and your team get out of my way. 
LTCMDR. WILLIAMS (Annoyed): Yes, sir. 
She and her team leaves as he works on the mine as Commander Kal walks over to him. 
LTCMDR. KAL: What do you think? 
LTCMDR. BOLTON: Its a Romulan mine alright but it shouldn't be that hard to disable. 
LTCMDR. KAL: Can it be disabled? 
He looks at her. 
LTCMDR. BOLTON: Yes it's possibly you see we like to melt these things out, get the access cover off, apply steady heat to the explosive compound, then turn it into goo which runs out for disposal.
LTJG. MASON: No boom?
LTCMDR. BOLTON [nods]: That's right, the casing stays intact. And the kids get a nice souvenir for their playground.
GABE: Excellent.
LTCMDR. BOLTON: Yeah, it'd be good, wouldn't it? But we can't do it. The axis has rusted tight. I'm gonna have to blow it up.
GABE & TIM: Cool!
LTCMDR. BOLTON: The sooner the better.
LTCMDR. KAL: Do it.
He starts to get to work.
LTCMDR. KAL: Steph, have some men set up here and here and keep the people back Jack gather the kids and take them to the school for safety. 
LTJG. MASON: I was hoping to watch the mine go boom.

LTJG. MASON: Well, be glad that its old or you wouldn't be here.
GABE: Someone as smart as you knows something like that's pretty dangerous.
LTJG. MASON: Let's wait and hear what happens.

LTCMDR. KAL: And what's more, Mister Mason, you blatantly disobeyed her direct order to stop on the beach. And you ran straight into danger to save the boy. You didn't hesitate. Which is what we were there to do. I gave you a hard time all day, Jack, and then I left you alone with a bunch of bored kids without any support. The whole thing is more my fault than anyone else's.
