:14:03
Yes, but that's not how it happened.
:14:05
So, the answer is yes.
:14:11
Is the Captain emotionally
and psychologically fit for command?

:14:16
Nothing in his history or personality
to suggest... mental lapses?

:14:21
Nothing.
:14:25
Not even the Ferengi incident
on his old starship, the Stargazer?

:14:30
He was being controlled by
a mind-altering machine.

:14:34
Without his knowledge.
:14:37
I would call that a mental lapse.
:15:00
Ensign, what are you doing
on the holodeck?

:15:04
I thought you were on Relva Vll.
:15:06
I'm finished testing for the day.
:15:09
- I've disturbed you. I'll leave.
- Wait.

:15:13
I thought I wanted to be alone.
I guess I don't.

:15:17
- How is the testing?
- OK, so far.

:15:20
It's not the ones
I've studied for I'm worried about.

:15:24
It's the psych test.
Facing my deepest fear.

:15:28
I'm trying to decide
what images to bring up.

:15:31
- Why?
- I guess I want to scare myself.

:15:35
What do you think?
Bulgallian rats? Lightning storms?

:15:40
Do those things frighten you?
:15:43
Sort of, I guess.
:15:45
The psych test is no more or less
important than the rest.

:15:49
So they said.
But I can't stop thinking about it.

:15:52
Thinking about what you can't
control only wastes energy

:15:56
and creates its own enemy.
:15:59
How can they know what
my deepest fear is when I don't?
