Tuvok: We are being hailed.

 

Janeway: On screen.

 

ANNORAX: State your identity.

 

Janeway: I'm Captain Janeway of the Federation Starship Voyager. Who are you and where are my men?

 

ANNORAX [on viewscreen]: I am Annorax of the Krenim Imperium. We've transferred your crewmen to my vessel for further analysis. Your ship does not come from this quadrant.

 

JANEWAY: We come from Earth, a planet 65,000 light years from here. We're on our way home.

 

ANNORAX [on viewscreen]: I see.

 

JANEWAY: We've been observing some rather unusual events in the region. It seems your Imperium never existed. Perhaps you could shed some light on this?

 

ANNORAX [on viewscreen]: That doesn't concern you. What is important is that you understand that I bear you no hostility, but you have diverted me from my mission.

 

JANEWAY: Your mission. You're responsible for the changes in the time line.

 

ANNORAX [on viewscreen]: You're a long way from your world. In a manner of speaking, so am I. Unfortunately, only one of us can go home again. Your sacrifice will restore the lives of countless millions. I'm sorry.

 

KIM: I'm reading a massive energy build-up. Some kind of weapon.

 

JANEWAY: (taking over the helm) Shields.
