"Unification" Line-by-Line

RIKER: Fire.

 

WORF: Their forward shields are damaged, sir.

 

La Forge: We destroyed one of their phaser arrays, looks like there's collateral damage in the Cargo area. Commander, I'm picking up massive power fluctuations, internal explosions. With all the armaments tht ship is carrying, it's gonna blow.

After a moment of the hull being electrified, the ship blows up. The bridge crew is silent and we say Goodbye to Riker, La Forge and Worf until part 2.

 

[Klingon quarters]

PICARD: Well, Mister Data? What do you think?
(They are both now Romulan)

 

Data: I would not have thought it possible, Sir. I am eager to test the success of our efforts. It does remain to be seen if the Romulans will accept us. Captain, you have seemed unusually pensive since we received the news of Ambassador Sarek's death.

 

PICARD: Sarek and I share a particular bond. Our lives touched in an unusual way. I admit I feel the effects of his death. The tenor of this mission has changed, Mister Data, at least it has for me. We were sent to confront Spock about his disappearance. Now, I also have to tell him that his father is dead.

 

Data: I do not entirely understand, sir. As a Vulcan, Ambassador Spock would simply see death as the natural result of his fathers illness.

 

PICARD: It's never quite that simple, not even for a Vulcan. Certainly not for Spock who is half-human. Years spent in conflict. And now the chance to resolve all of those differences is gone.

 

Data: Considering the exceptionally long lifespan of Vulcans, it does seem odd that Sarek and Spock did not choose to resolve those differences in the time allowed.

 

Picard: Father and son. Both proud, both stubborn, more alike than either of them were prepared to admit. A lifetime spent building emotional barriers. They're very difficult to break down. And now, the time has come, it's too late. Its a difficult moment. It's a lonely one. It's a moment Spock is about to face.

 

(Klingon bridge - K'Vada laughs at the sight of the costumed Picard and Data)


K'Vada: Don't you two look sweet! Be careful, android! Some Romulan beauty might take a liking to you, lick that paint right off your ears. You! Do you know what the Romulans will do to you if they discover who you are?

 

Picard: I have a good idea. We're ready to transport down to the surface.

 

K'Vada: Just so we understand each other... my orders don't include rescue missions!

 

[Romulan office]

(Pardek, a stocky man, enters)

Neral: Ah, Senator Pardek. You received my message.

 

Neral's office... Pardek enters.

Neral: Ah, Senator Pardek. You received my message.

 

Pardek: I got here as quickly as I could, Proconsul.

 

Neral: What do you know of this human? Jean-Luc Picard, a Starfleet Captain.

 

Pardek: I know nothing of him.

 

Neral: You haven't seen him recently?

 

PARDEK: To my knowledge, I have never seen him.
