Voyager is not transmitting,
Captain...
2:04:15
because it did not receive
the final sequence.
2:04:18
Jim, we're down to ten minutes.
2:04:21
Enterprise, stand by.
2:04:31
- The antenna leads are melted away.
- Yes, Captain, just now.
2:04:35
By V'Ger itself.
2:04:38
- Why?
- To prevent reception.
2:04:41
Of course.
2:04:42
To bring the creator here.
2:04:45
To finish transmitting
the code in person.
2:04:52
To touch the creator.
2:04:53
Capture God?
2:04:58
V'Ger's liable to be in for
one hell of a disappointment.
2:05:01
Perhaps not, Doctor.
2:05:26
Captain.
2:05:34
V'Ger must evolve.
2:05:36
Its knowledge has reached the limits
of this universe. It must evolve.
2:05:40
What it requires of its god, Doctor,
is the answer to its question...
2:05:44
Is there nothing more?
2:05:45
What more is there
than the universe, Spock?
2:05:48
Other dimensions.
Higher levels of being.
2:05:50
The existence of which
cannot be proven logically.
2:05:53
Therefore, V'Ger is incapable
of believing in them.
2:05:56
What V'Ger needs
in order to evolve...
2:05:59
is a human quality...
