[Zeratul]

T’Pel: I am Ambassador T'Pel.

 

[Zeratul]

???? [on viewscreen]: I am Admiral Mendak

 

[Vanyel]

T’Pel: There is no established protocol for a meeting of this nature. The logical course is that I transport aboard your ship and begin the negotiations.

 

[Zeratul]

MENDAK [on viewscreen]: Yes. Captain, I note your defensive systems have been activated.

 

[Vanyel]

Picard: As have yours.

 

[Zeratul]

MENDAK [on viewscreen]: It was not meant as an accusation Indeed, I salute your show of strength. Ambassador, we are honoured by your presence. You may transport aboard at your convenience.

 

[Vanyel]

T’Pel: The honor is mine.
(The view screen returns to a shot of the Romulan Warbird).
Have your Transporter Room stand-by. I will beam to their ship with no further delay.
