Commander, the Romulans have access to advanced weapons technology. If anyone were to be in possession of a worthy catalyst for the Ah’rak Fosh superweapon, it would be them.

Then we have no time to waste. I do not wish to harm another Vulcan, but we must secure whatever it is they found in this station. Attack them, Commander.
