Wall monitor shows the Benzar system as the camera pans back and shows Vice Admiral Herbert as she faces Captain Martin, Commander Y'Nar, and Lieutenant Sito are at the table.
VICE ADM. HERBERT: What can you all tell me about Benzar?
CMDR. Y'NAR: It's home to the Benzites was taken by the Dominion during the war, was retaken by a Romulan force.
CAPT. MARTIN: And was occupied for the duration of the war by the Romulans to make sure that the Dominion don't try to retake it.
VICE ADM. HERBERT [sighs]: Well the Benzite Ambassador can't seem to get the Romulan forces to leave Benzar, and they're acting like the planet is compensation for the losses they suffered during the war.
CAPT. MARTIN: So what do you want us to do?
VICE ADM. HERBERT: Find away to pry them off Benzar the Romulan Ambassador P'jeeno will be leading the Romulan side of the negotiations.
CMDR. Y'NAR: Who's leading our side?
VICE ADM. HERBERT: Captain Martin.
John turns to her.
CAPT. MARTIN [surprised]: What?
VICE ADM. HERBERT: You're going to lead the Federation side of the negotiations your mission will be to do whatever it takes to regain the Benzar system.
CAPT. MARTIN [sighs]: Very well then Admiral.

LTCMDR. T'MIR: They took me in after my father brought me to the Federation side of the border with my mother.
AMBASSADOR P'JENNO: Very well then you can remain.
They sit at the table.
CAPT. MARTIN: Ambassador you're probably wondering why you've been requested to board the Enterprise.
AMBASSADOR P'JENNO: Yes you are wondering why we haven't removed our troops from Benzar.
CAPT. MARTIN: The thought has crossed the Federation Council's mind.
AMBASSADOR P'JENNO: We are there at the request of the Benzite people to help them rebuild after the Dominion turned their world into ruin from the occupation.
LTCMDR. T'MIR: That's what the Benzite Ambassador told us he told us that your troopers on the surface have been torturing the population, and even built prison camps in three separate areas of the world.
AMBASSADOR P'JENNO: Those were for Cardassian and Jem'Hadar prisoners shocking the Jem'Hadar committed suicide to prevent us from questioning them but we were able to question the Cardassian prisoners on the deployments of their forces.
CAPT. MARTIN: But the war is over Ambassador and I must insist that you recall your men and head back to Romulan Space.
AMBASSADOR P'JENNO: I'll have to contact what's left of my government and will give you an answer in an hour.
The Romulan delegates leave the ready room.
CMDR. Y'NAR: don't think they'll listen to the Senate.
CAPT. MARTIN: Let's hope they do because we're not ready for a new sustained conflict.

AMBASSADOR P'JENNO: We maybe recovering from the recent Reman uprising Captain but we are in no way weakened by this.
CAPT. MARTIN: The Federation Council wants your Praetor to recall all Romulan forces from Benzar or it could be consider an act of war.
AMBASSADOR P'JENNO: Captain the Praetor doesn't want us to give up the Benzar homeworld we'll allow Benzites to come and go as they please but as far as Federation vessels are considered we'll open fire on any that try to enter orbit.
CAPT. MARTIN: What you're suggesting will be considered an act of war against the Federation Ambassador.

VICE ADM. HERBERT: You were to do whatever it took to regain Benzar in the hands of the Federation.
CAPT. MARTIN: I tried and he just walked out.
VICE ADM. HERBERT: I know you tried your best John but the Council won't see it like that we'll have to prepare for the worst.
GEN. KARGAN: If you were a Klingon you'd be put to death!
CAPT. MARTIN: Glad I'm not a Klingon then.
VICE ADM. HERBERT: Well at least they don't have a embassy here just yet so we're currently in the clear for now.
Captain Martin looks at her.
CAPT. MARTIN: This is what this was all about not allowing the Romulans to have an embassy here at this base?
GEN. KARGAN: This base was constructed to honor those who were killed in this sector and if we allow the Romulans to have an embassy here it would dishonor those lives!
