I have successfully triangulated the assassin’s warp path from this location. It would appear they warped directly to Ieceses, in the Zonu system..

Commander, would I be correct in assuming that your AI has had little success in analysing the assassin's warp signature?

That is correct, Commander Spock.

I believe I have a solution. I had Mr. Scott write an algorithm that should increase your capacity for analysing trace signatures such as the one we encountered at the attack site.

Commander, the algorithm has been integrated successfully. It has increased my analyzing capabilities by 45%.

I am sorry, Commander, I should have realized that Valeris was involved in this conspiracy. I am afraid that I let my feelings as her mentor blind me to her true motives.

It would appear that Spock is more capable than I gave him credit for. I should have known my former mentor would catch on eventually.

I cannot let you stop what I’ve put in motion, Commander. By now, General Chang will be nearing the peace conference. The President of the Federation is facing his last moments.

The war will continue and the Federation will be brought to its knees. There is nothing you can do, Commander. Surrender, now. It is the only logical option open to you.
