Though I think I’d better beam over to you, and take a look at them in that nifty wee hold you’ve rigged up. Don’t want to sully the shiny new Enterprise with radioactive debris – she’d never forgive me!

By Jupiter! My tricorder just lit up like a warp core! That’s it, then. I mean, just take a look for yourself. You’ve got to scan right down to the subatomic.

This hull fragment is not composed of Tritanium, but is a near-perfect replica. The firing mechanism is comprised of molecular microprocessors.

That’s what I’m saying! I’ve never seen anything of the sort before. This would also explain why the Federation ships had cloaking technology – they’re fake! Phony! They all are!

I have identified several pieces of debris that would be suitable candidates for Captain Scott’s research: a hull fragment, an intact bulkhead, and a firing mechanism from a weapons system.

However, given the destruction sustained by these vessels, the wreckage will require a unique storage solution, to prevent damage to our cargo hold and the emission of lethal radiation.

A storage system in the order of 3.9B Parsteel should suffice.

Commander, it’s Captain Scott here, aboard the Enterprise-B. Don’t worry, that enemy fleet is still licking its wounds.

We’re waiting on Captain Sulu’s return – the Excelsior’s probably in need of a band-aid or two, the poor girl. But a starship finds work for idle hands, as my old mentor, Pelia used to say.

Speaking of which, I’ve had the engineering team here going over the sensor logs from the battle back there. There’s something fishy going on, especially with those Starfleet ships.

Yes, lassie, I was just getting to that! See, I wouldn’t mind examining some of the wreckage from the battle for myself – from as many classes of ship that we fought as possible.

None of the vessels in the task force can just go waltzing off though, not least the Enterprise. You on the other hand…

Very good, Doctor. You may proceed. Also thank you for asking the Commander to collect a sample of gaseous matter for me. You may beam it directly to the containment flask I have assembled in sickbay.

Thank you, Commander. Initial readings would appear to confirm my hypothesis – that we are not dealing with a nebula at all, but an energy cloud masquerading as one.

I’ll be damned… This woman isn’t real either! She’s got sensors, and micro-hydraulics at the cellular level. Multiprocessor chips too, facilitating every conceivable bodily function.

Sensors indicate that this area contains a cluster of deceased personnel, which should satisfy Dr McCoy’s request. I shall beam their remains directly to sickbay, for placing into stasis.

The remains are aboard, Commander. I also took the liberty of transporting a sample of the nebula gas into the laboratory, taking the necessary precautions. We can now return to the Enterprise.

I have them. I’ll compile a full report for Captain Harriman. Which reminds me: Dr McCoy has been sniffing around the engineering deck. He wanted to talk to you – I’ll patch you through.

Commander, at last. I don’t know how much Scotty told you, but I have a theory about these replica ships he’s discovered.

McCoy
Dialogue
I need you to do me a favor, just like you did for Scotty. Go back to the battlefield, and bring me some samples of crew remains. A human, a Klingon, and a Romulan should suffice for now.

And I’m sure I don’t have to tell you this, of all people, but be respectful.

I assume it does not matter that they have been long exposed to the vacuum of space?

No, that won’t matter. Oh, and while you’re out there… Spock would like a sample of nebula gas. God knows why – you’ve seen one gaseous anomaly you’ve seen them all, am I right? But Spock will be Spock.

The wreckage is safely aboard. We should deliver this to Captain Scott aboard the Enterprise.
