If we simply kill her, the Romulans will come back looking for retribution. That is not a fight we can win right now, not until Khan’s work is finished.

Here is my proposal. Go along with her for now and feign interest in her mission. When the time comes to hand over data for her report, give her this doctored data that Kati put together.
