Dialogue
Good work getting to the bottom of this, crew, but it doesn’t change our original problem.

The shuttle.

Dialogue
Bingo. The Prime Directive is being violated as long as the Esotheans have it.

Spock
Dialogue
They do not appear to have made use of warp technology yet, Captain. If we can retrieve the shuttle, perhaps we can resolve this situation.

Pike
Dialogue
Then that’s what we’re going to do.

Spock
Dialogue
It is likely they have shored up their security since our last visit.

Pike
Dialogue
We need to make sure we don’t engage them in outright combat. We can’t have them discovering two spaceships orbiting their planet.

Dialogue
Starfleet Command will not tolerate another breach of General Order 1. If the Esotheans suspect anything, it’s over.

Character
Una Chin-Riley
Dialogue
Yes, sir. So how do we proceed? We can’t just pilot it out of there. We’d be exposing ourselves.
Objective ID
1,298,842,511
Phase

Character
Pike
Dialogue
Correct, Number One. We’re going to beam it out.

Dialogue
No way the transporter room is big enough for that shuttle – or any shuttle, for that matter.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Pike
Dialogue
We can store it in the pattern buffer. It’s inanimate; it won’t require as much space as living things would.
Objective ID

Character
Erica Ortegas
Dialogue
Still, it’ll take a lot of juice.
Objective ID
1,298,842,511
Phase

Character
Spock
Dialogue
We will need to reroute power from all non-essential systems.
Objective ID
1,298,842,511
Phase

Character
Una Chin-Riley
Dialogue
And we will need the Commander’s help even with that.

You will have it.

Dialogue
Beam Ortegas and I down, Commander. Once we get to the shuttle, we will let you know. Spock, Number One – coordinate the power diversion and buffer storage.

I’m reading life signs up ahead, Captain…

Let’s go around.

Not sure that’s gonna be possible, sir – we have incoming!

Set phasers to stun, and let’s keep moving! Where is this damn shuttle?

This way– Sir, watch out!

…Remind me to bring you on away missions more often, Ortegas.

We’re here, sir. The shuttle is just up ahead.

Looks to be Arkonian in design. Not one of ours, at least. The brass will be happy about that. Get the beacon on it, Ortegas.

Pike to Number One – we’re ready.

Spock, reroute power to the transporter. Commander, give us everything you’ve got. Initiating transport…

Character
Una Chin-Riley
Dialogue
The shuttle has been successfully stored in the pattern buffer, but I wouldn’t keep it in there too long. It’s taking up a lot of space.
Objective ID
894,077,030
Phase

Character
Spock
Dialogue
We should bring it to Starfleet Command as soon as possible.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Erica Ortegas
Dialogue
So that’s it? We just leave this planet to its inevitable environmental collapse?
Objective ID

Character
Pike
Dialogue
We can’t intervene, Ortegas. You know that.
Objective ID
894,077,030
Phase

Character
Una Chin-Riley
Dialogue
We can’t intervene, but we can make sure the right information gets into the right hands. Commander, bring up the file on Minister Monara.

Una…

Dialogue
This is proof that the corporations on Esothea are actively keeping the planet reliant on fossil fuels. If someone were to make this information public–
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Pike
Dialogue
We can’t do that, much as I might want to.
Objective ID
894,077,030
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Erica Ortegas
Dialogue
We can’t do it. But the Commander could send the file to Minister Domiel, and he could decide for himself what to do. Starfleet doesn’t have to be involved.
Objective ID
894,077,030
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Una Chin-Riley
Dialogue
Exactly.
Objective ID
894,077,030
Phase

Character
Pike
Dialogue
…Fine. Send the file, Commander.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Maia
Dialogue
The file has been successfully transferred. From an anonymous source, of course.
Objective ID
90,153,907
Phase

Character
Pike
Dialogue
Good. Then let’s report back to Starfleet Command for a debriefing. They’re going to want to hear about all of this.

Pelia
Dialogue
Isn’t it glorious? Of course, you missed the best bit, Commander.
Objective ID
98,980,047
Phase
dialogue_end
Character
Erica Ortegas
Dialogue
We had more important things to worry about than a light show, Pelia.
Objective ID
98,980,047
Phase

Character
Una Chin-Riley
Dialogue
And speaking of – it seems like Minister Domiel is now the chair of the Esothean parliament and is promising to usher in a new age of environmental sustainability.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Spock
Dialogue
His task is great. Dismantling a corpocracy is no mean feat.
Objective ID
98,980,047
Phase
dialogue_end
Character
Una Chin-Riley
Dialogue
Very true. But it is a start. And, thanks to us, they have the space and time to figure all of that out without interference from technology they’re not ready for.
Objective ID
98,980,047
Phase
dialogue_end
Character
Erica Ortegas
Dialogue
Would leaving them with a clean energy resource not have been better?
Objective ID
98,980,047
Phase
dialogue_end
Character
Pike
Dialogue
Not for a planet like Esothea. It’s been proven time and again that civilizations need to get there by themselves. Giving them the easy way out always has unintended consequences.
Objective ID
98,980,047
Phase
dialogue_end
Character
Pike
Dialogue
We did good, crew. We did as much as we could, and now it’s up to Esothea to define its own destiny.
Objective ID

Character
Starfleet Admiral
Dialogue
Starfleet Command is overall very happy with how you handled the situation on Esothea, Pike.
Objective ID
98,980,047
Phase

Character
Starfleet Admiral
Dialogue
Now that we have the shuttle back, we don’t have to worry about the Esotheans gaining access to technology they’re not ready for.

Starfleet Admiral
Dialogue
Certainly a far cry from Kiley 279.

Character
Pike
Dialogue
Yes, well, we learned our lesson there.
Objective ID
98,980,047
Phase

Character
Starfleet Admiral
Dialogue
Things do seem to be heating up on Esothea, though. Politically speaking. You wouldn’t happen to have had anything to do with that?
Objective ID
98,980,047
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Pike
Dialogue
Er… A file may have found its way into the hands of a member of parliament, sir. Accidentally, you understand.
Objective ID
98,980,047
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Starfleet Admiral
Dialogue
Hmph! Well, what matters is Esothea remains ignorant of the wider galaxy. That is the way it must be, for now. Dismissed, Pike. You may return to your supernova.
