Captain, we have arrived at Tanuga IV.
The away team has completed its survey of Dr. Apgar's work
and is ready to return to the ship.
Good.
Oh, please... and feel free
to examine the work of the other students, too.
Hmm...
Ensign Williams' striking style
is heavily influenced
by geometric constructivism.
Lieutenant Wright has effectively fused
the incongruities of the surrealists
with the irrationality of dadaism.
Interesting.
Oh.
Thank you.
In what way?
While suggesting the free treatment of form
usually attributed to fauvism
this quite inappropriately attempts to juxtapose
the disparate cubistic styles of Picasso and Leger.
In addition, the use of color suggests a haphazard melange
of clashing styles.
Furthermore, the unsettling overtones
of proto-Vulcan influences...
Thank you... Mr. Data.
You are welcome, sir.
If I can be of further assistance...
No... thank you.
( door opens and closes )
Captain's Log, Stardate 43610.4:
After completing a delivery of dicosilium
to the Tanuga IV research station
our away team has received an update from Dr. Nel Apgar
on his efforts to create Krieger waves
a potentially valuable new power source.
Welcome back, Mr. La Forge.
Thank you, sir.
Where's Commander Riker?
He's still down on the station, sir.
Dr. Apgar wanted to have a word with him.
Any problems?
Not with the scientific part of the mission, no, sir.
Riker to Enterprise.
I'm ready to leave now.
I'm sure Commander Riker will be able
to explain everything, Captain.
O'BRIEN: Stand by, Commander.
Engaging transport.
( beeping )
( machinery powering down )
Transporter Room to Engineering.
I have a power drain.
Transporter Room.
Is Commander Riker aboard?
O'BRIEN: Not yet, Captain. I'm having trouble clearing the signal.
Transporter Room to Bridge.
He's aboard.
Why do you sound so surprised, Mr. O'Brien?
Well, for a moment, we weren't sure
you left the space station in time.
In time for what?
It just exploded, sir.
Space, the final frontier.
These are the voyages of the Starship Enterprise.
Its continuing mission--
to explore strange new worlds
to seek out new life and new civilizations
to boldly go where no one has gone before.
Captain's Log, supplemental:
Commander Riker has informed me
that Dr. Apgar was the only one aboard the space station
when it exploded.
We remain in orbit investigating the accident.
I've gone through the whole system, Captain.
I can't find any malfunction in the transporter
or nothing that would cause an explosion like that.
Why was there a power drain before transport?
I don't know, sir.
I shall want an answer to that.
I'm sure the Tanugans will, too.
Yes, sir.
Captain, the radiation and debris
are consistent with an overload of the station's reactor core.
Were there any indications
of reactor core problems
while you were on the station?
No, sir.
Number One?
Mr. La Forge indicated
that this was not an entirely routine mission.
It's a long story, sir
but I'm sure it doesn't have anything to do
with this accident.
( communications beep )
Captain, Chief Investigator Krag of the Tanugan security force
requests permission to beam aboard.
Granted. Will you escort him to the Bridge, Mr. Worf?
WORF: Aye, sir.
Perhaps you had better tell me as much as possible
prior to his arrival, Number One.
( sighing )
I'm Lieutenant Worf, head of ship's security.
I will take you to the Captain.
Chief Investigator
welcome to the Enterprise.
I'm Captain Picard.
This is my First Officer
Commander William Riker.
Commander Riker, I am here to take you into custody.
Custody? On what charge?
Suspicion of murder.
Murder? Now, wait a minute. You can't come on...
Chief Investigator...
we are perfectly willing to cooperate with you...
Then release the prisoner
for transportation to the planet.
Let's continue this discussion in private.
Number One, you have the Bridge.
Just what is the evidence against my officer?
Two witnesses have come forward
to describe Commander Riker's threats against Dr. Apgar.
Threats?
I'm aware there was
a private conversation between them.
Apparently, it was much more than just a private conversation
but he will be given a chance to prove his innocence.
Investigator, in our system of jurisprudence
a man is innocent until proven guilty.
In ours, he is guilty until he is proved innocent
and you are under our jurisdiction.
If I understand Federation regulations on this matter
and I just happened to look them up...
I am aware of Federation regulations, sir
and if you investigate them further
you will find the Captain decides
if extradition is warranted.
Are you saying it is not?
I am saying if there is sufficient cause
to warrant a trial
I will release my officer into your custody.
Would you say that you are close to your First Officer, Captain?
That question is irrelevant here.
Really, Captain, you cannot believe that.
How can I expect a fair and impartial decision?
I must protect the rights of my officer.
I can appreciate that
but you will do it on the planet, not here.
After all, what if you were suddenly to decide
to leave this star system?
You have my word as a Starfleet officer
that I will not.
Unacceptable.
Captain, you will turn him over to me for interrogation now.
Interrogate him here.
We must re-create step by step, moment by moment
all the events
leading to the explosion.
We will require access to all the witnesses
as well as the data from the lab's ground computers.
It would be impossible to accomplish here.
Perhaps not.
Mr. Data, will you report
to my ready room?
Aye, sir.
We may be able to assist you
in re-creating these events.
Commander Data, this is Chief Inspector Krag.
Commander, by taking testimony
from the away team
and from witnesses provided by the Investigator
would it be possible to program the holodeck
to re-create what happened on the science station?
It would require construction and design specifications
full orthographic representations
of the Krieger equipment
as well as visual representations
and voice analyses of the persons involved
but it is possible.
Very well.
Arrangements will be made to provide you
with all available information.
I shall return shortly with our witnesses.
Commander, will you escort Investigator Krag
to Transporter Room Three?
Ensign Crusher, Mr. La Forge
we are going to re-create the research station
here on the holodeck.
I want you to work with Commander Data on the preparations.
In addition, Commander La Forge and Commander Riker
I want you to give the computer
detailed depositions of everything you saw
everything you heard while you were on board.
Counselor, I want you to assist me during this inquiry.
My decision about the extradition will be based
on the evidence presented during these re-creations.
Captain...
May I have a word with you?
Under the circumstances, Number One
I think that would be inappropriate.
DATA: Second Officer's log, Stardate 43611.6:
Programming of the holodeck has taken 18 hours, 11 minutes
and is now complete.
All participants have entered their depositions.
Technical schematics and complete records
from the lab's ground computers
as well as Dr. Apgar's personal logs
have been included.
The re-creations will have a nominal 8.7% margin of error.
( door begins closing )
Is there anything you'd like to say
before we begin, Number One?
Just this.
I'm not a murderer.
I went to the Tanugan lab
as an official representative of Starfleet.
I acted accordingly.
I was there to evaluate Dr. Apgar's progress
in the development
of a Krieger-wave converter.
That's all I was interested in.
Computer...
( beeping )
...load deposition program
Riker One.
Run the simulation.
Dr. Apgar?
I'm Commander William Riker.
Lieutenant Commander Geordi La Forge.
My assistant, Tayna.
Well, let's get on with it, shall we?
Let's not be in such a hurry, dear.
Perhaps our guest
would care for some refreshments?
My wife, Manua.
RIKER: A pleasure to meet you, Mrs. Apgar.
If you're prepared to start, so are we.
Of course, I'm prepared.
All right. Why don't you give me
an overview of your research
while Mr. La Forge and your assistant
take a look at the experimental data.
Fine, whatever.
I must say, Commander, I resent this early arrival.
Starfleet will get its converter.
I've had a few setbacks, that's all.
We're not here to pressure you, Doctor.
We just want an update on your progress.
Tayna, show the Commander's assistant
whatever he wants to see. Give him full access to our records.
TAYNA: Yes, Doctor.
If you'll come with me.
Our lambda field generator
is on the planet since it requires
a minimum of 5,000 kilometers
for the field to collimate.
Really, darling, you're being rude.
After all, Commander Riker is willing
to sit through all your prattle about Krieger waves.
Let's have a drink, Commander
and we'll hear all about Krieger waves.
To your success, Doctor.
Mm-hmm.
And the rewards that come with it.
Riker, what is Starfleet doing here anyway?
My delivery wasn't scheduled for another three months.
Well, we were in this sector on another mission
and since you had already contacted Starfleet
about additional dicosilium
it seemed like a good opportunity.
How interesting.
Tell us about this other mission.
It was just a study of a proto-star cloud.
The Enterprise will be back tomorrow.
The Enterprise just left you here?
We didn't want to inconvenience you.
We've made arrangements for quarters on the planet.
Oh, I won't hear of such a thing.
Commander, I insist you and Mr. La Forge stay with us.
I hardly think...
I know that you would prefer to be left alone
with your very important work
but I, for one, am glad for the company.
Good.
I must apologize
for my husband's lack of social graces.
He may be one
of the great scientific minds in the galaxy, but...
he does come up a bit short in other areas.
KRAG: Wait a moment.
Stop.
Computer, freeze program.
KRAG: Then it's your testimony
that it was Mrs. Apgar's idea
for you to spend the night aboard the space station?
It's my testimony and it's the truth.
Resume program.
Our guest quarters aren't luxurious
but I've tried to make this room warm and inviting.
I'll be very comfortable, thank you.
Good night.
The environmental controls are over here.
I'm sure I'll find everything I need.
And the door shuts by touching this panel.
Mrs. Apgar...
This is my sanctuary.
Privacy is very important
on a small station.
I'm left alone here, often for hours.
It's late.
I am tired.
Are you still tired, Commander?
RIKER: Ma'am, excuse me
I really think that you ought to leave.
I knew I'd find you with him.
Did you think I didn't notice how you looked at him?
I'm not the fool you take me for.
RIKER: Doctor!
( groaning )
Doctor, believe me.
This has been a terrible mistake.
You won't get away with this.
I'll see to it.
I swear I will, Riker.
Freeze program.
I didn't see Dr. Apgar
until the following morning
when he asked to see me alone.
Commander La Forge returned to the Enterprise.
Resume program.
I suppose if I make a formal complaint
your report on my work won't be very good.
Doctor, this is going to have no impact on my report.
It was a misunderstanding of the worst kind.
We could straighten the entire thing out
if you would ask Mrs. Apgar to join us.
My wife and my assistant
have transported down to the planet.
What are you going to put in your report, Riker?
That there is no justification
for all the extra dicosilium I've requested?
That is why they sent you early, isn't it?
Doctor, I...
NEL: I can explain why I needed it.
They have no idea what my problems are.
There are explanations for...
I don't need explanations.
Then we have nothing further to say to each other.
I'll tell my Captain to expect your grievance.
Do that.
Riker to Enterprise.
I'm ready to leave now.
O'BRIEN: Stand by, Commander.
Engaging transport.
Freeze program.
Then I returned to the Enterprise.
And you have nothing further to add, Commander?
Nothing about firing a phaser?
I never fired a phaser on the science station.
Well, that's odd... very odd.
Captain Picard, is it not true
that your sensors detected an energy drain
just as Commander Riker began transport?
That's correct.
KRAG: Have you been able to explain it?
PICARD: Not to my knowledge.
We have.
Our readings are quite clear about it.
Information retrieved from the lab's ground computers
indicate that a focused energy pulse was fired
just as Commander Riker began transport.
Furthermore, by analyzing the angle and trajectory
we have determined that it came from the very spot
Commander Riker was standing.
So then, will you allow me to show you my re-creation
of the end of this story?
A speculation, if you will.
Computer...
run hypothetical Krag one.
Riker to Enterprise.
I'm ready to leave now.
O'BRIEN: Stand by, Commander.
Engaging transport.
KRAG: Freeze program.
Three seconds later, the space station exploded.
LA FORGE: The Tanugans are right.
Something was fired at the reactor core
just before transport.
The energy signature
would seem to indicate a phaser-like blast.
Well, it wasn't the Commander's phaser.
It couldn't have been.
There's another answer.
We're just not seeing it.
Was there anything else in the lab
capable of creating this kind of energy discharge?
Not that I saw.
Besides, how do you account for the fact
that it came from Commander Riker's exact position?
Damn it, I should've stayed with him.
( beeping )
Commander.
Sensors indicate a radiation burst
on deck 39 outside cargo bay 12.
Source?
Unknown, sir.
Computer, identify type of radiation.
Emission is not consistent with any known radiation.
It is subsiding, sir.
WESLEY: What kind of radiation could do this?
Make any sense to you?
I don't recognize it.
Not even the main deflector puts out that kind of spillage.
Where would it be coming from?
I don't know, Wes, but whatever it is
it's capable of putting a hole in solid duranium.
In a sense
we have already met Mrs. Apgar
so we shall dispense with introductions.
PICARD: Mrs. Apgar
you understand the purpose of this hearing?
TROI: We understand
how difficult this will be for you.
If you need a recess
please don't hesitate to ask.
PICARD: Would you like
to make a statement before we begin?
No.
I just know he did it.
He killed my husband.
Computer
load Manua Simulation One.
Run program.
If you greet them with such a long face
they're going to assume
something is wrong with the experiment.
I just need time, a little more time.
I'm certain they'll give you all the time you need
if you just show a little charm.
You do that so much better
than I do.
Manua, someday I'll be able to reward you
for all your patience.
I'll get you everything you ever dreamed of.
I have all the reward I need.
Now go on.
I'll be right in.
( door opens and closes )
RIKER: Dr. Apgar?
I'm Commander William Riker.
Lieutenant Commander Geordi La Forge.
My assistant, Tayna.
Well, let's get on with it, shall we?
Don't be in such a hurry, dear.
Perhaps our guests would like some refreshment?
My wife, Manua.
A pleasure to meet you, Manua.
NEL: I'm anxious to get started.
If you wish.
I must say, I resent your early arrival, Commander.
I have much work to do.
Doctor, I'll do everything in my power
to make this as painless as possible for both of us.
Do you assist your husband in his work?
Oh, dear, no, I'm no scientist.
No, neither am I.
But I find this all fascinating, don't you?
Mr. La Forge, why don't you take a look
at the Doctor's experimental data.
Later you can give me an overview.
Fine, whatever.
Starfleet will get its Krieger-wave converter.
These things take time.
I've had a few setbacks, that's all.
RIKER: Doctor, I'm not trying to put any pressure on you.
I'm sure my report will only underscore the need
for continued support of your research.
Mm-hmm.
Tayna
I'll call up the records.
Show the Commander's assistant whatever he wants to see.
Yes, Doctor. If you'll come with me.
Our field generator is on the planet
since it requires a minimum of 5,000 kilometers
for the field to collimate.
Darling, let Tayna take care of that.
I'm sure Commander Riker
wants to hear how close you are to a breakthrough.
I'll pour the two of you a drink
and you can talk all about Krieger waves.
Commander.
To success.
Success.
Well, in a way, I suppose it's good that you're early.
Manua's right.
It gives me a chance to show you
the progress we've been making.
I would appreciate it
if Commander La Forge and I could stay here
until the Enterprise returns.
It's a little inconvenient.
It would help to accelerate the process.
Well, if you wish, Commander.
Now, uh...
where shall I start?
Well, first of all
you should know that I am very close
to being able to collimate a Krieger field.
Our guest quarters
are quite modest.
RIKER: Very charming.
It has your touch.
The station is small and we don't often have guests
so I use this as my sanctuary.
Who do you need sanctuary from?
The environmental controls are here.
( sighing )
Commander, please...
it's late and I'm tired.
A man more interested in Krieger waves
than a lovely woman like you...
How is that possible?
My husband is one of the greatest minds
in the galaxy
and we love each other very much.
Please, don't.
RIKER: You must be very lonely...
a princess in a very high tower.
Please, my husband will be looking for me.
Your sanctuary, remember?
Commander, don't, please!
She's lying.
That never happened.
Freeze program.
Please...
Captain, you know I would never act like that.
Commander Riker...
This isn't me.
I wasn't the one who closed the door.
I didn't proposition her
and I certainly didn't try to rape her.
Why are you doing this?
It's exactly what happened.
Will, come on, sit down.
Resume program.
Please...
I knew you'd try this, Riker.
Do you think I didn't notice how you looked at her?
I'm not the fool you take me for.
You won't get away with this.
Your career is over.
I'll see to it, I swear I will, Riker.
If you report this
you'll be making a terrible mistake, Doctor
a terrible mistake.
Freeze program.
Your career was safe.
He was a scientist.
In another day, some fascinating bit
of technical trivia would have distracted him.
He would have forgotten about you
and his complaint to Starfleet.
( softly ): Excuse me.
We'll, uh...
we'll take a short recess.
Why would she lie like that?
She was lying.
You could tell.
Will, I didn't sense any deception from her.
Then you think that I would...?
No! No, of course not.
I know you.
You don't have to convince me of anything.
We can't both be telling the truth.
It is the truth as each of you remembers it.
But her version puts a noose around my neck.
This is healing beautifully.
I think you can work on strengthening those muscles again.
WORF: Security to Dr. Crusher.
( alarm blaring )
Evacuate. Repeat, evacuate.
Radiation emissions are indicated in Sick Bay.
( alarm continues )
This is definitely the same radiation
that penetrated deck 39.
Highly focused, very powerful, but of unknown origin.
If this should happen near the engine core
or the antimatter containment tanks
we'll be in big trouble, Captain.
Do you have any theories?
Captain, Data's noticed something
that's too strange to be a coincidence.
The two radiation events aboard the Enterprise
occurred five hours, 20 minutes and three seconds apart.
The science station exploded yesterday
at almost four times that interval.
WESLEY: There's a .0014-second variance
we haven't been able to explain yet.
So you're saying there's a connection
between the radiation bursts and the explosion.
We do not have the evidence to support that conclusion
at this time, Commander.
BEVERLY: If they're right
we should be able to predict the next event.
We're expecting it in just over five hours.
Well, take every precaution
to protect the ship's vital areas.
If we haven't identified the source
before the next time interval, we'll leave orbit.
If you perceive any further danger
advise me immediately.
We'll figure it out for you, Commander.
After the... the fight, Dr. Apgar came to find me.
He was very upset.
And he told you what happened?
Yes, he told me everything that happened.
Based on Tayna's deposition
we have re-created the incident in Commander Riker's quarters
as Dr. Apgar described it to her.
Computer...
Inspector, Inspector, this is hearsay.
She wasn't a witness to this incident.
But Dr. Apgar is dead.
Her statement is admissible according to Tanugan law
and I insist you consider it.
Well... we'll watch this "evidence"
and we'll weigh it accordingly.
Computer, run Tayna Simulation Three.
I knew I'd find the two of you together.
Do you think I didn't notice
how you were looking at each other?
I'm not the fool
you take me for.
I'm going to report this, Riker.
You can count on that.
You're a dead man, Apgar.
A dead man.
Freeze program.
And then Dr. Apgar came to find you?
Yes.
Run Tayna Simulation Four.
I want you to take Manua
and beam down to Tanuga immediately.
But, Doctor, if he threatened you
you shouldn't stay.
I'm not leaving him here alone.
He's capable of anything.
I've got to protect our work.
I'll contact the authorities.
No... I'll take care of that.
Doctor, be careful.
It'll be all right.
Go on.
KRAG: Freeze program.
Then what happened?
I left the station with Manua.
The next day, when I heard the station had exploded
I knew what had happened.
He'd killed Dr. Apgar.
KRAG: Thank you.
You are excused.
( door opens and closes )
Captain, I have established motive, method and opportunity.
In any court in the Federation
that is sufficient
to warrant the extradition of the accused.
I await your decision forthwith.
I don't see any alternative.
Do you?
We both know Will's innocent.
Of course he's innocent
but as a Starfleet Captain, I can't allow myself the luxury
of yielding to personal feelings.
The evidence warrants a trial.
I'll have to allow extradition.
Do you think there's enough evidence
to prove his innocence?
No.
DATA: Captain, I believe we have found
the source of the radiation.
Can you join us on the Bridge?
Acknowledged.
As you know, Captain, we are looking for a phenomenon
that reoccurs every five hours
20 minutes and three seconds.
The interval between the radiation bursts.
We have found one such phenomenon
on the planet surface.
It's the field generator that Apgar used
during his research.
When it's fully charged
it automatically emits an energy pulse
and then takes five hours
20 minutes and three seconds to recharge itself.
It must have been left on after the explosion at the lab.
But why would a generator
be affecting the Enterprise in this way?
It should not be.
It is a harmless lambda field generator.
LA FORGE: But we knew that somehow it was related
to our radiation bursts
and then the pieces just started falling together.
We now know what is causing the bursts
and why the science station exploded, sir.
And we also know who killed Dr. Apgar.
Chief Inspector, we've watched these events
replayed over and over again
and... I am impressed
and admittedly dismayed
by the body of evidence against Commander Riker
but isn't it remarkable that with all the witnesses
all the different points of view
of the events aboard the space station
we haven't seen what really happened?
I do not understand.
Allow me, with the help of Mr. La Forge, to explain.
Computer, load Manua Program One
time index 14-4-1.
Play program.
Fine, whatever.
Starfleet will get its Krieger-wave converter.
These things take time.
I've had a few setbacks, that's all.
PICARD: Freeze.
Mrs. Apgar, this is taken from your deposition.
It would seem to suggest that your husband
had failed to create Krieger waves.
Yes, but he was very close to a breakthrough.
He said he needed more time.
He was upset by our early arrival.
Where in fact, I maintain
that he had already made that breakthrough
and that he was lying to us.
On what basis?
LA FORGE: For the last several hours
the Enterprise has been experiencing
unusual radiation bursts.
We've identified them as Krieger waves.
Krieger waves?
But that's impossible.
From where?
From right here inside the holodeck.
PICARD: We have re-created your science lab
in every conceivable detail.
Essentially, what was in the original lab is here.
Including the Krieger-wave converter
that Dr. Apgar claimed didn't work, except it does work.
Your field generator down on the planet surface
has been sending out harmless energy charges
which this facsimile has been converting into Krieger waves.
But the holodeck can't create anything dangerous.
Well, it didn't.
When you get down to basics the converter is nothing more
than a complex series of mirrors and reflective coils.
The energy from the field generator
down on the planet
simply reflects off of elements in the converter
which turns it into highly focused Krieger waves.
And those same waves have been
randomly striking different areas of our ship
as we orbit the planet
and our angle to the generator changes.
Why would Dr. Apgar lie about his success?
Computer, run Manua Program One, time index 14-3-8.
Manua, someday I'll be able to reward you
for all your patience.
I'll get you everything you ever dreamed of.
I have all the reward I need.
PICARD: Freeze program.
Computer, run Riker Program Two, time index 16-1-0.
To your success, Doctor.
And the rewards that come with it.
PICARD: Freeze.
I never said that.
Nevertheless, it seems clear that your husband
was motivated to earn the rewards that pleased you
Mrs. Apgar.
What's wrong with that?
TROI: Well, he wouldn't have
earned great profits from his dealings with Starfleet.
We were only interested in a new power source.
But if he could turn this into a weapon
it would be worth a lot
to the Romulans, the Ferengi and a few others.
Now, Dr. Apgar had been ordering extra dicosilium for months.
That's a pretty good indication
that he was trying to create larger reflective coils.
And when the away team arrived early
he must have been worried
that Starfleet was becoming suspicious.
He needed more time to finish his work.
Apgar said that in each of the three versions.
No doubt he was afraid
that Commander Riker might learn the truth
and cut off his support prematurely.
Discovering Commander Riker with his wife
didn't help matters.
I submit he decided to murder Commander Riker.
Ridiculous.
Is it?
Computer, run Tayna Program Four
time index 18-1-4.
I'll contact the authorities.
No... I'll take care of that.
PICARD: Freeze.
Tayna, what exactly is Apgar doing here?
Activating the generator on the planet.
Now, why would he do that?
Maybe he was going to work on the converter.
I don't know.
Maybe he was already thinking ahead
to his next confrontation with Commander Riker.
Computer, play Riker Program Four
time index 24-1.
What are you going to put in your report, Riker?
That there's no justification
for all the extra dicosilium I've requested?
That is why they sent you early, isn't it?
Doctor...
I can explain why I needed it.
They have no idea what my problems are.
There are explanations for...
I don't need explanations.
PICARD: Freeze.
To Apgar, this must have seemed as though
Commander Riker were confirming his worst fears
and I believe it was now
that he finally decided to kill him.
KRAG: You forget, Picard.
We know that the energy pulse which blew up the reactor
originated from Commander Riker's position
not Dr. Apgar's.
Hmm... We are hypothesizing
that Dr. Apgar energized the converter
at the moment of Commander Riker's beam-out
hoping to make his death look like a transporter accident
but something went wrong.
The energy pulse hit the transporter beam
and reflected back
to the reactor, which caused the explosion.
An interesting hypothesis, but impossible to prove.
LA FORGE: Not really.
We know that field generator on the planet
has been repeating a discharge ever since the explosion.
The intervals are like clockwork
except the explosion occurred
.0014 seconds after the initial discharge.
Now, the only explanation for that variance
is the time it would take the energy pulse to bounce back
from the transporter beam to the reactor.
We've arranged a demonstration to illustrate.
Mr. La Forge, I think it's about time, isn't it?
Computer, load program La Forge One.
Coordinate auto-engage time sequence.
The next discharge from the field generator
is scheduled to occur in just a few moments.
Now, we've aligned the holodeck program
to re-create the final events
as Commander Riker described them
only this time, our facsimile will automatically process
the energy charge from the planet
and reflect it just as the original converter did
before the explosion.
If we're correct, we'll know it instantly.
COMPUTER: Auto-engage time sequence synchronized.
Then we have nothing further
to say to each other.
I'll tell my Captain to expect your grievance.
Do that.
Riker to Enterprise.
I'm ready to leave now.
O'BRIEN: Stand by, Commander.
Engaging transport.
Dr. Apgar killed himself
during his attempt to kill Commander Riker.
Based on this new evidence, I withdraw my request
for Commander Riker's extradition.
Commander...
my apologies.
Number One, have we any further business
in the Tanuga system?
None that I know of.
I'd be more than willing to put it behind me.
Then perhaps you would do me the pleasure
of getting this ship underway.
With pleasure, sir.
Ensign Crusher
set course for Emila II, warp three.
Course laid in, sir.
Engage.
