Mister Stamets, am I understanding this correctly? You may know of a way to keep us hidden from Starfleet?

Dialogue
It’s more of a theory than a fact right now. Let’s assess our situation. The Discovery somehow got us here, and it can somehow get us home.

Character
Paul Stamets
Dialogue
But that means that we need to be out there, with the Discovery, in order to find the way home. We have the key, we just need to find the door.

So, the answer is simple – we just need to make the ship invisible!

I am afraid that your solution to our current problem does not fill me with confidence. How do you propose we do such a thing?

A Romulan cloaking shield.

Well, thank you for depriving me of the reveal I was working up to. But yes, a Romulan cloaking shield. This is the perfect type of stealth technology that we need right now.

I’m still working out the kinks in the plan, but I think I can pull something together along with Engineering. It’s the only shot we’ve got.

And how do you propose we get our hands on such a thing?

Based on previous operations, I know where such a device can be acquired. Please, come with us.

Commander Burnham, we are in position. I have triangulated a research facility within the outpost that should house the blueprints we need. Scans currently detect minimal security.

Alright, the sooner you get me down there, the sooner you can get me out.

Beam successful, Commander Burnham is now within the facility. We do not have long until–

Until…?

It would appear that we are being hailed by a Romulan vessel. It is emerging from cloak nearby.

Dialogue
Really? Not one of us saw this coming?
Objective ID

It must want to take us in for questioning. Commander Burnham cannot afford for us to be apprehended. We may have no choice but to engage.

Romulan vessel destroyed, the target has been eliminated. Several other Romulan signatures are converging on our position.

I’ve got the blueprints, I was able to extract them from their systems just before you pulled me out. Do you think they noticed?

Unfortunately, yes. Setting course for Olorun. We must lose them at once.

Well, we made it back in one piece – just barley, but we made it. Burnham, let me see those schematics.

Character
Paul Stamets
Dialogue
Yes, these are the exact blueprints we needed. I should be able to cobble together something based on this. Our Engineering department should have most of the items I need to get started.

Excellent. Do you know how long this will take?

I think you misheard me, Saru. I said “most” of the items, not “all” of them. There are still a few things we need.

Commander, I am detecting a Romulan signature emerging from warp. It appears that an Augur has caught up to us.

We cannot allow them to track us back to our Station. We have on other option – raising shields.

Commander, do you think it’s wise for us to be here?

No, it is not. But we will attempt to minimize our time here. A Romulan ship-building outpost is located on Lossa’Gror, a planet residing within this system.

A significant number of Romulan Augur vessels are constructed here.

Of course! If there’s anywhere we can find blueprints for Romulan cloaking technology, it’s going to be here. But how are we going to get it?

Beam me down onto the outpost. I’ll be out of there before they know it.

Dialogue
Michael, have you taken leave of your senses? Why are you always so eager to take the most dangerous option?
Objective ID

Character
Michael Burnham
Dialogue
We need to get our hands on those blueprints somehow, Saru. I’m the only one here with an ounce of visible credibility to be on that outpost. I have to do this.

Very well. But please, take care. Commander, get us a little closer to the outpost and we can begin.
