01x12 - Our Mortal Enemy Is Captain Carter

Post by bunniefuu »

Space Pilot Hagenson. Space

Pilot John Lee. And I'm Barry

Hercules, doc.

The voice of Captain Carter has demanded

the F01. Kirara,

where do you think we came from and who

brought us here?Where's our real home, I

wonder?Kirara,

if only you could talk. So many things

would then be clear. Maybe

you even know the secret of F01.

I told you all along I knew that voice.

I gotta hand it to you, Shiro. You were

right. I just wish you were wrong.

It's hard to believe. It definitely was

Captain Carter. Yes. I'm afraid he's

now working for the Alliance. I bet that

Makara. Use some kind of

new brainwashing technique on him.

You're right. How else would Captain

Carter work for the Alliance?Captain

Carter appears convinced that Lamia is

this mysterious F01. We've been through

that. Just because Lamia tried to contact

the skull doesn't make her F01. Don't

listen to that heap of rusty circuits. I

wouldn't change my circuits for your

burnt out brain. What do you say?

Gentlemen, that's quite enough of that.

We must find the sailing ship again. Not

a hologram, but the real skull. Doctor,

please come to the c*ck at once.

Radar's picked up an unidentified craft.

Doctor, distress call. Upper quadrant.

What?Not again. I bet it's the alliance

up with their old tricks. Unidentified

crab coming closer. I wonder who it is.

Hans b*mber, can you help me?That's an

Imperial soldier. Hey, why is he being

attacked by his own people?He may be a

deserter. Can't let him be k*lled. Die X.

Yes, sir.

Here we go. Okay.

Fire him.

Good shot, guys. Lee, watch your back.

Hey, bullseye.

Look, fellas, they're retreating.

Imperial soldier, please identify

yourself. Identify yourself now.

Yes, please help me.

Right. Hercules. Lee. Sounds like

he's hurt. Let's get him on board. Stand

by X-b*mber.

What?You failed to catch him. Commander,

the deserter has been taken on board. You

fools. Can you not catch one man?Just who

is the deserter?He is Soldier 0171,

Captain Orion. What?A crewman on the

battle carrier?Something seems to be

upsetting you, Captain Orion. You fool.

Nothing has gone right since you took

command of the carrier, Earthling. You're

so simple, Orion. Have you no brain?You

can't perceive the tactic I'm using.

Tactic. You have probably never heard of

the wooden horse of Troy. To find an

enemy's weakness, you have to work from

the inside.

From the inside. Very clever.

He appears to be very weak.

Doctor, why did we have to save him?

Because he must have valuable information

about the Alliance battle plan.

Lamia, is he too weak for questioning?

Yes. But Doctor, if you would let me care

for you. No, that's dangerous. He can

regain his strength, guarded by the solar

rays here in sickbay. Boys, resume search

for the skull. Yes, Sir.

Shiro, what are you thinking about?

Nothing. Why?I bet it's Lamia.

No. Why should it be?

It's pretty obvious to us. Hercules. OK,

OK, cool it, buddy. That's enough

frivolous talk. We must all stay alive.

Go blow a fuse. There's something strange

about that deserter.

Unknown stranger. What is your homeland

like?I don't even know where my homeland

is. Please wait and tell me what youknow.

What?Emergency from sickbay.

I knew we shouldn't have saved him. Not a

very grateful patient. I'd say that this

was deliberate, cleverly planned. I was

thinking the very same thing. Come on,

we'd better hurry. Hey, look at this.

It's Lamia's. Just wait till I get my

hands on him. There he

is in passage E He's turned to the left

now. He's making for the engine room.

It's up, boy. He's stopped.

One moment. We must approach with

caution. Lamia is with him. He may harm

her. Yes, Sir. Yes, Sir.

Right, BPA. Computer check the memory

banks in Sickbay. They must have

something on him. Yes, Sir.

This is it. This is the engine

room.

There he is.

Hold it right there. Let her

go. Let Lamia go. Do you hear?Hold it.

Hit Lamia. Let her go. Don't fire, Charu.

Hold your fire. Charu, help!

Stop or I'll sh**t.

Darn it. He's locked it from the inside.

Please, call the doctor. All right.

Doctor Ben, the soldier locked himself in

the engine room, holding Lamia hostage.

What do we do, Sir?Use the solar torches.

I'm on my way. Yes, Sir. Get the torches.

What

are you going to do now?Be quiet.

OK, it's all set. Here we go,

PPA. What's the computer readout on the

Imperial soldier?I've only just put the

data into the computer bank. All right,

but hurry.

You've deceived us. You have come to k*ll

and to destroy. Yes,

destroy X b*mber and all within her.

All I have to do is push this button.

If you push it, you will die too. Do you

want to die?Be quiet,

Doctor. The soldier. He's going to

detonate a b*mb in here. Evacuate X

b*mber quickly. There's no time. You

little fool. Hercules, hurry.

CPA result of the analysis. Sorry,

insufficient data from memory bank for

computer to respond. Nothing at all.

Afraid not. Our only chance, once we're

through that door, is to rush in. Yes,

Sir. You

fool. Why do you want them?You

want to die?Why do

you want to die?Is the Imperial Alliance

so great that you will give your life for

its treachery?It's like committing

suicide. We saved your life because we

trusted your call for help. If you

surrender, we won't hurt you now. Life is

a precious gift. That's enough.

Don't talk to me of death.

Death means nothing to me.

I'm going to detonate the b*mb. Your

friends will be too late to save you.

Are you not afraid?

Where are you?

Are you all right?Quickly, search for the

b*mb.

Whammia. Are you OK?Shiro,

this is the detonator. Fortunately, it

hasn't been engaged.

It's OK. The b*mb's been defused, Sir.

Good work. Hercules. Lee, carry the

soldier to sickbay. He's still alive.

Yes, Sir.

Right, PPA turn on body scanner, yes.

He sustained severe injuries. Increased

magnification of his right shoulder.

Isn't that a time b*mb?Yes, probably to

be detonated in case of betrayal. Real

cute. So this poor fellow had no

chance. He'd have been k*lled whatever he

did. Can't we remove the b*mb?No, there's

not enough time. We only have seconds

left. I feel sorry for him, but the

Alliance leaves us no choice. Launch him

in a capsule. Yes, Sir.

He knew how to bypass the solar guard. He

knew where the engine room was. Someone

who'd seen the inside of X-b*mber briefed

him. Yes, Captain Carter.

Exactly.

Doctor, must that soldier be destroyed?

Can't we save him somehow?I'm

sorry, Lamia. I'm afraid this was all

part of Captain Carter's plan.

Captain Carter, you are going to k*ll us

all.

Aiming frequency from enemy ship for

Captain Carter. Is that so?Let's hear

what he has to say. This should be

interesting. An old friend wants to

talk to you. This is Carter. What do you

want?Who are you?Captain Carter.

So what is you?Remember

me?I'm Sharo Hagen. I don't know you.

What's your business?I knew it was you

trying to blow up X-b*mber. Obviously I

was unsuccessful. Is that what you wanted

to tell me?I challenge you to a duel.

Yes, the forces of good against evil. A

Starfleet commander who sold out to the

enemy. What are

you saying?Are you mad?I cannot allow

this. I have to. Wait, Shadow,

you're being hasty. Shadow, wait. Talk it

over with Doctor Ben.

Carter. This will more than compensate

for the failure of the wooden

horse that went so wrong. The death of

one of their crew will be a serious blow

for them and a pleasure for us. What's

your answer to that one, Carter?You

aren't afraid of him, are you?

Well, it will be a very uneven match, I

can assure you. I will annihilate him in

one blast. I have been waiting

for this moment for a long time. k*ll

Shyro, and you will have redeemed your

failure, Carter.

Drakeup, do you copy?Shyro, why don't you

answer?

Gyro, this is X-b*mber. Do you copy?

Doctor, he's real determined to get

Captain Carter.

Lee, keep contacting him. Does he

have to be a hero?

Gyro, do you copy?This is X-b*mber. Do

you?Captain Carter, you were

always my hero at the Academy. Why did

you defect?

Why did you place a b*mb inside X b*mber

trying to k*ll all of us?Not even

in battle, but by stealth and treachery.

Come on, Carter.

You sold your soul to those Barbarians

and tried to m*rder your friends. Friends

that admired and respected you,

whatever the Alliance might have done to

you. You are now our enemy. An

enemy who must die.

Come on, Captain.

It's just you and me.

Come and get me, boy.

What's the matter?Scared?

Darn. What's wrong with me?

I can't do it.

Come on, turn and fight me, boy. I've

got to fire.

I've been hit, but it's not enough to

stop me. OK, Captain,

this is it,

traitor.

Now, time to finish him off.

I'm hit.

It's going down.

I had to.

He's alive.

Ohh Captain Cutter, I had to do

it.

ohh

Captain, it's me. It's Shyro. Can you

hear me?Shyro?Yes,

that's right.

Shyro?Yes, it's you, Shyro. What are you

doing?Answer me.

Don't you know?

Captain Carter, don't come closer.

Damn, Akara. Damn her. Damn the

Imperial Alliance. The things they made

me do. Why?

Oh, why?

Cairo, finish me off. But I can't.

I'm not Carter, commander of the Earth.

I'm just a traitor.

A traitor to Starfleet Command, to you

and to my whole race. No, you were

brainwashed. Brainwashed by the Imperial

Alliance. You had no control over your

actions. Come back with me, Captain. I

beg of you. Shiro, do you want me to live

my life in disgrace?Do you want me to

continue with dishonor and betrayal?It is

I who tried to sh**t you, sh**t you down

on the planet of w*r. It is I who. Who

tried to blow up the ex b*mber?Who tried

to kidnap Lamia?That is the heinous enemy

who is now before you. Listen, Shyro, the

duel has not yet ended. I'll count to

three, and if you do not

fire, I will blow you right out of the

Galaxy.

Don't make me



Shiro. Good

sh**ting.

Shiro defeated Captain Carter, a

man he had loved and respected, but who

had been brainwashed by an unrelenting

enemy. With all of the bitter remorse he

felt in his heart for the death of his

tutor, Shyro Hagen's determination to

resist the Imperial Alliance was now

deeply enrooted in his soul.

X b*mber continues the search for the

skull in deep space, far beyond the reach

of Starfleet Command. The battle with the

Imperial Alliance for possession of the

F01 goes on. Can Shiro Hagen

escape the ghost of Captain Carter?Don't

miss the next episode of Starfleet.

Send a message out across the sky.

Alien Raiders just passed jamming.

Who will come and save us

now?Who can

defend us from that power?

Starfleet
