:10:01
Trouble.
:10:09
Captain's log, supplemental.
:10:11
On a mission to rescue survivors
from a shuttle crash,
:10:15
the away team has encountered
a strange creature
:10:18
which is able
to assume different forms,
:10:21
including one which
resembles humanoid.
:10:23
Easy. Let's find out
what we're dealing with.
:10:27
Agreed, Captain.
:10:29
Number One, I don't believe
the location of the crash
:10:33
and the proximity of the creature
is a coincidence.
:10:47
I am Cmdr William Riker
of the USS Enterprise.
:10:51
I am Armus. Why are you here?
:10:55
We mean no harm. We have injured
crewmen in the shuttlecraft.
:10:59
We need to get to them. May we pass?
:11:02
You haven't given me
a good enough reason.
:11:06
Preserving life.
All life is very important to us.
:11:09
Why?
:11:12
We believe everything
has a right to exist.
:11:16
An interesting notion
which I do not share!
:11:20
You may leave now, if you wish.
:11:23
We're not going without our crew.
:11:25
- I warn you...
- Enough!
:11:28
Our people need attention.
:11:30
We won't hurt you,
but we must help them.
:11:45
Number One!
:11:46
The creature attacked us.
Lt Yar is down.
:11:49
- It seems to feed on our phaser.
- We had no effect on it.
