- Commander, scans are showing what appears to be a fleet of Klingon ships in close pursuit with the SS Revenant. Soran’s ship is taking on fire. They mean to destroy it.

- What is wrong with that boy? My son is onboard that ship. He’s a Q, with powers akin to a god! Why is he allowing himself to be picked on by a bunch of cranially-challenged savages!?

- Back to Klingon territory. By all reckoning, Soran will be a wanted man in any system where the Klingons retain a foothold. He’s growing desperate if he’s resorting to tactics such as these.
