Proving Ground Line-byLine

[May 20]

DEGRA: The new prototype has been completed. We've scheduled a test.

 

[Oddish]

REPTILIAN: "When?"

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

DEGRA: Three days. You'll be able to view the test remotely from this chamber. If everything goes as planned, we should be ready to deploy the final version in a month, maybe sooner.

 

[Oddish]

HUMANOID: "And the human threat will finally be eliminated."

 

[Athena28]

DEGRA: I hope you find that worth your time.

 

[Orac]

[Meanwhile on the Starship Enterprise]

Hoshi: The signal was so weak I wasn't even sure it was there at first.

 

[Oddish]

ARCHER: "But you are now."

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

HOSHI: Yes, sir. The isotopic signature matches the kemocite that you planted on the Xindi ship.

 

[Oddish]

ARCHER: "Set a course. Tell Trip I want everything he can give me from the engines."

 

[Athena28]

T'POL: Captain, as you know, Ensign Sato and I have been working to reconstruct our database.

 

[Oddish]

ARCHER: "And?"

 

[Orac]

Hoshi: We've managed to dig about 30% of our lost data out of the redundant memory core.

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

T'POL: Enough to begin piecing together a map of the spatial anomalies. The signal lies just beyond a dense field of them.

 

[Orac]

Hoshi: Here.

 

[Oddish]

ARCHER: "How long to go around it?"

 

[Orac]

T'Pol: A field this massive? 17 days at warp 5.

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

ARCHER: Alert the crew. It's going to get rough.

 

[Oddish]

TUCKER: "Tucker to the Bridge."

 

[Orac]

Archer [OC]: Go ahead.

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

TRIP: I've got the warp reactor buttoned up...

[Bridge]

TRIP [OC]: ...We're as ready as we'll ever be.
