In both cases, the time distortions
occurred along the same continuum

:34:07
as a preview or reprise
of a specific point in time.

:34:10
Where we are, were,
and where we will be.

:34:14
Data, I want this
to be an away team of one. You.

:34:19
There's no reason
to risk anyone else.

:34:22
It is reasonable, sir. After all,
I am a machine and dispensable.

:34:27
"Indispensable"
is the appropriate word.

:34:30
But you seem more able to control
the effects of the time distortion.

:34:36
I see. That is quite true, sir.
:34:39
I see time as a constant, whereas
humans perceive time as flexible,

:34:43
hence the expression
"Time flies when you're having fun",

:34:47
which until now
has always confused me.

:34:50
Well, I want you to put a stitch
in time and save much more than nine.

:34:56
Sir?
:34:57
If other members of the away team
became disoriented,

:35:02
it could create additional problems,
and perhaps increase the danger.

:35:07
I will go immediately, sir.
:35:10
Good luck, Data.
:35:16
Alright, we have the coordinates
exactly as the Professor specified.

:35:44
I am proceeding to the lab, sir.
:35:47
- Maintain an open frequency.
- Aye, sir.
