We have no business with you. You may have noticed some unusual activity emanating from within the energy ribbon. We are attempting to analyze the ribbon in order to ascertain the cause.

You may not have any business with us, but that doesn’t mean we don’t have business with you. Hand over everything in that cargo bay, or we’ll blast your ship to atoms!

Intruder on the bridge! Internal scans do not recognize your species! Why are you masquerading as a Starfleet officer?

Consider yourself lucky that I’ve only seen fit to disable your weapons. If I see you again, it will be your life support systems. Leave this place, and don’t come back.

Commander, the anomalous behavior of the energy ribbon is growing more erratic by the moment. We must move closer to the ribbon in order to enter scanning range.

Mercy? You think far too highly of yourself, Independent. When I’m done with you, I will claim your head as my personal trophy. Your corpse will be strung up in the halls of the Syndicate!
