Strange.
:22:22
Captain, I am now receiving
a message from Starfleet Command.
:22:26
On screen.
:22:32
Greetings, Enterprise. I am
Admiral Savar. This is Admiral Aaron.
:22:38
And I believe
you already know Admiral Quinn.
:22:41
Yes. Good to see you again, Admiral.
:22:43
And you, Captain.
:22:45
We are always delighted when the
Enterprise returns to the nest.
:22:49
Yet we are puzzled
by the timing ofyour visit.
:22:52
Yes, sir,
I can imagine that you would be.
:22:55
Governor Delaplane ofPacifica
says you cancelled your stop there.
:22:59
- Is this true?
- Yes, sir, it is.
:23:02
Explain yourself.
Why have you returned to Earth?
:23:07
I would rather discuss that
in person.
:23:20
Excuse us for one moment.
:23:30
They seem normal enough.
:23:32
On the surface.
Counsellor, any thoughts?
:23:36
Hard to say.
Someone is hiding something.
:23:39
But I can't tell who or what.
:23:41
I'm not overjoyed
to see Remmick again.
:23:44
Their response
has been pretty temperate.
:23:47
I don't like it.
You can't trust them.
:23:50
Forgive the delay, Capt Picard.
:23:53
We'd be delighted
ifyou and your First Officer
:23:56
- wouldjoin us for dinner.
- Delighted.
:23:59
It would give you an opportunity
to expatiate your own viewpoint.
