Wires are hanging down along with pieces of bulkhead and panels as support beams are hanging as well, as we see the boarding party led by Commander Ivanova.
LTCMDR. WILLIAMS [re: tricorder]: This ship has seen better days Commander.
CMDR. IVANOVA: Yeah, but let's hope that we can find the crew and find out who did this.
They look over at the scorch marks on the bulkhead.
CMDR. IVANOVA: T'Shara?
LTCMDR. T'SHARA [re: tricorder]: These scorch marks are from disruptor rifle fire.

CMDR. IVANOVA: I don't get it he was fine when he came aboard several times in the past.
They follow Doctor Carlson into his office.
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE SICKBAY, DOCTOR CARLSON'S OFFICE
They walk over to his desk as Doctor Carlson shows them the brain wave patterns of a regular brain and Kyle's current synaptic pattern.
CMDR. IVANOVA [surprised]: Whoa, that's strange.
DR. CARLSON: Yes apparently something has gotten into his brain and has screwed up his synaptic patterns its causing his neurons to misfire as well as shredded his prefrontal lobe.
CAPT. BRANSON: What do you suggest Steven?
DR. CARLSON [sighs]: I'm not sure yet I need to do more research on this situation.
CAPT. BRANSON: Keep me posted Steven and calm him down before he tears the bio-bed apart.

DR. CARLSON: Well he's calm down finally he was screaming throughout the night and trying to get free of the restrains. 
CAPT. TOWE [worried]: What did this to him?
DR. CARLSON: A neural parasite it has somehow caused this fight or flight reaction to go into overdrive, its wrecking havoc with his prefrontal lobe no matter what drug I give him it's destroyed immediately. 
Jamie is worried.
CAPT. TOWE: What do you two suggest?
DR. CARLSON: Neural surgery.
CAPT. TOWE: Are there risks?
DR. CARLSON: There's always a risk when it involves neural surgery.
CAPT. BRANSON: I gave him authorization to prepare Kyle for neural surgery keep me posted Steven.
DR. CARLSON [nods]: Aye, sir.

Both Captain Branson & Captain Towe are walking through the corridor. 
JAMIE: I don't know if this is a good idea John. 
JOHN: Jamie its the best option my wife and her crew will take good care of him. 
JAMIE: I think it would be best that we take him to the outpost. 
They stopped. 
JOHN: Out of the question Jamie it would be too risky to remove him from the isolation room this soon. 
Then they enter the lift. 
INT-USS ENTERPRISE TURBO-LIFT CART
John toggles the lever. 
CAPT. BRANSON (to com): Deck 1, main bridge. 
The lift starts moving. 
JAMIE: Why are you being so damn stubborn about this? 
JOHN: Well lets see Steven needs to do the neural surgery to remove the neural parasite. 
JAMIE: I thought you were a good friend but you're just a loyal Starfleet officer saying yes, sir to every order. 
JOHN: I am a good friend but when it comes to a high ranking officer you have to follow his orders or you could get court martialed. 
JAMIE (scoffs): Whatever you just care about your precious Enterprise and not your best friend the man that I love and would do anything for. 
JOHN: At the cost of your command and your career? 
Jamie says nothing and the cart is filled with awkward silence. 
JAMIE: I'm sorry its just this is so damn frustrating. 
JOHN: I know how you feel but we need to figure out who put that parasite in him and why.

CMDR. IVANOVA: We've got a bit of a situation right now he's escaped and we're searching for him. 
CAPT. SMITH (viewer): You need back up?

CAPT. SMITH (viewer): Alright keep me posted Smith out
Commander Ivanova is worried. 
INT-USS ENTERPRISE MAIN CARGO BAY (RED ALERT, EMERGENCY POWER)
Jamie is looking around for Kyle. 
JAMIE: Kyle, I know you're in here. 
Kyle comes out of hiding as Jamie turns to see him. 
JAMIE (shocked): Oh my god Kyle look at you I want you to stop this please these people are only wanting to help you and so do I. 
The doors opened and Captain Branson, Ensigns Jones and Holiday enter and take up positions to ambush Kyle. 
CAPT. BRANSON (sotto): You two take that area and I'll take this area. 
They go to their positions to better aim their phasers to stun Kyle, as John sees Jamie face to face with Kyle. 
JAMIE: Kyle, please stop you are better then this don't let those things in your head control you. 
Then Captain Branson comes out of hiding aims his phaser and fires as a blue energy beam lances out and struck Kyle but nothing happens, as Kyle goes back to the enraged monster as John tries to reset to heavy stun but Kyle knocks the phaser out of John's hands the two fight it out John gets in some good hits but they don't effect Kyle who grabs John and throws him into a few containers. 
JAMIE (worried): KYLE STOP IT! 
Before John can clear his head, Kyle walks over to him and grabs him by the back of his gold uniform and throws him into the bulkhead knocking him out cold, as Kyle looks at the fallen Captain Branson he turns to Jamie. As a menacing pause falls between the pair, like a predator viewing its prey then Kyle suddenly rushes Jamie, grabbing her by the throat and slamming her against the bulkhead bending it in due to the increase strength he has from the parasite. 
As he strangles Jamie he snarls into her eyes as she's gasping for air Jamie then fights back getting him to let go of her and is getting separation from him. staggering by with one hand on her neck gasping for air and coughing. 
JAMIE (coughing, gagging): K-Kyle, I know you're in there fight it! 
To which Kyle responds with only a menacing growl. 
JAMIE: I know you know who I am. Its why you can't kill me. 
Kyle reaches out to grab Jamie but she moves quicker then him and cups Kyle's face in her hands, John comes to and grabs his phaser and rearms himself. As he stands there mesmerized by the sight. 
KYLE (Chokes): J-Jamie? 
Jamie caresses his face. 
JAMIE [Smiles]: Yes, I love you Kyle. 
Kyle screams, snarls and backs away from Jamie, he staggers forward reaches out to Jamie. But he screams again and begins to claw at his face. He then convulses, falls to his knees and then onto his back he seizes twice and falls quiet. Then the doors to the Cargo bay open as Doctor Carlson and a medical team enter and Steven goes to Kyle and examines him. 
DR. CARLSON [re: Medical tricorder]: He's in neural shock. I need to get him to surgery quickly if I am to save him. 
CAPT. BRANSON: Go save him Steven please. 
Doctor Carlson and his medical team quickly rush Kyle to sickbay as Jamie staggers a bit and John catches as she cries into his shoulder as John comforts her.

Jamie sat in the chair in front of the desk. 
JAMIE: Oh you know its not everyday that I get choked almost to death by someone I care about, Doctor Carlson says I will make a full recovery but I will have a bit of bruising of the neck but it didn't damage my vocal cords. 
JOHN: That's good. 
JAMIE (sighs): You were right it would of been too risky for us to transporter Kyle to Starfleet Medical Outpost 14, but what I saw in his eyes wasn't Kyle it was something else something primal and dangerous. 
JOHN: Jamie it wasn't his fault according to Steven those parasites were controlling his every action. 
JAMIE: HE ALMOST KILLED ME JOHN! He didn't even stop to consider who I was it was like I didn't exist to him. 
Jamie walks over to the window as John walks over to her. 
JOHN: Jamie if this was Jessica I would feel the same way you're feeling but this is Kyle alright someone that you love and care about if you want to take a break get your head clear you go do that he will still be here waiting for you. 
Jamie leaves the ready room John is thinking about what Jamie said when the doors chimed.

The doors opened and Jessica enters.

John walks over to his desk as he sits down.

JESSICA: John what's going on? 
JOHN: Well let's see I am not handing my best friend over to you so you can take him to Starfleet Medical Outpost 14 to be put into a psyche ward for the rest of his life.
