CAPT. MARTIN: I'm fine report?
LTCMDR. JAMES [sighs]: I'm not sure one minute we were fine and then the next the ship started going haywire, main power is down we're operating on emergency power we're having to push the pods out of their launch hatches.
CAPT. BRANSON: Any sign of Admiral Picard?
LTCMDR. JAMES: No, sir.
CAPT. MARTIN: Alright first thing first we've got to get control of the Enterprise back and then rescue Picard.
LTCMDR. JAMES: Sir, the Admiral is gone and so is the Enterprise we've got to evacuate.
