The Vulcan Hello Line-by-Line

[May 20]

(A direct hit blasts a hole in the brig hull, sucking Connor out into space. Burnham is knocked out but safe behind the security forcefield.)
SAREK [memory]: Michael. Michael. Michael. My mind to your mind. My thoughts to your thoughts. Come back to me.

 

[Athena28]

COMPUTER: Major hull breach. Major hull breach. Deck one, deck three, deck six, deck seven, deck eight, deck nine.

 

[May 20]

[Bridge]

GEORGIOU: Status.

 

[CaptVader]

SARU: Additional hull breaches, decks one, three, and six through nine.

 

[May 20]

GEORGIOU: The brig.

 

[CaptVader]

[Brig]

COMPUTER: Shield at fifteen percent. Diverting main power from compromised decks to the bridge. Containment field failure is imminent. All repair personnel evacuate immediately.

 

[Athena28]

BURNHAM: Sarek? How is it possible? A mind-meld across a thousand light years?

 

[May 20]

SAREK: More than a mind-meld. Ever since you were a child, ever since the bombing at the Learning Centre, that act of terror that forever changed your destiny, a part of me, my katra, has been with you. It also allows us this unique form of connection. I see by your imprisonment that my counsel concerning the Klingons did not yield the results you hoped for.

 

[Athena28]

BURNHAM: I couldn't convince Captain Georgiou to strike the Klingons first, so I took matters into my own hands. You're disappointed. As you should be.

 

[CaptVader]

SAREK: I did not come here to judge your actions. I came because I sensed your your despair.

 

[May 20]

BURNHAM: What's wrong?

 

[Athena28]

SAREK: Communicating with you in this manner. The physical cost is significant.

 

[mattman8907]

BURNHAM: Then leave me. Please.

 

[Athena28]

SAREK: Do you think I came here just to say farewell? I would not put my well-being at risk for such sentimentality. The death and destruction raining down on Starfleet, that was to be expected. What I cannot abide is a waste of resources. You're gifted. You are brave. You must do better. Because I know you can.

 

[May 20]

BURNHAM: You were never one to bolster my self-esteem.

 

[Athena28]

SAREK: Perhaps that is where I failed you. No matter your shame, gather your strength. Find a way to help those who need you. Live long and prosper.

 

[May 20]

[Bridge]

GANT: Incoming warship on attack vector. They've locked on to us.

 

[BlueStuff]

GEORGIOU: Divert all power from nonessential systems to aft shields.

(Direct hit to bridge. The Shenzou tumbles powerless towards the asteroid belt.)

GEORGIOU: Ops.

 

[May 20]

JANUZZI: Yes, Captain. Emergency forcefield is holding.

 

[CaptVader]

SANU: But shields and impulse engines are off-line. We are completely disabled.
