:17:00
- Unauthorised?
- Who is it, Lieutenant?
:17:03
Computer reads ID of Jake Kurland.
:17:05
Bridge to main shuttlebay.
Mr Kurland, Lt Yar. Respond.
:17:10
- Isn't that area secured?
- Not now, Remmick!
:17:13
- He'll take this out.
- Locking the doors.
:17:16
Too late. He's using
the emergency override.
:17:19
- Smart kid!
- Kid?
:17:21
- He's launching.
- On viewer.
:17:29
Lt Yar, open channel.
:17:31
Enterprise to shuttlecraft.
Mr Kurland, this is Capt Picard.
:17:39
Captain, I'm going to Beltane IX
:17:42
to sign on to a freighter.
:17:44
Tell my father... I'm sorry.
:17:47
You can tell him yourself.
In person.
:17:50
- Bring that ship back at once.
- No.
:17:54
I can't face him.
:17:56
I'm leaving.
:18:03
He's unbalanced
the dilithium reaction.
:18:09
I've lost power!
:18:11
All he's got are manoeuvring jets.
:18:13
He'll enter the atmosphere
and burn up
:18:15
at an altitude of 200 kilometres.
:18:18
- Probable impact?
- Atmospheric entry 78 seconds.
:18:21
- Options?
- Tractor beam?
:18:23
No. He's too far away
for a positive lock.
:18:26
He's out of transporter range.
:18:28
You are completely
responsible for his life.
:18:32
Either get out of my way
and keep quiet,
:18:34
or I will have you removed
from the bridge.
:18:39
- Viewer on shuttle cockpit.
- Visual on main viewer.
:18:43
I can't get the engine started!
:18:46
What am I gonna do?
:18:48
I'm gonna crash!
:18:50
He needs another 50 seconds
for the core to cool down.
:18:54
Stay calm, Jake.
:18:57
We'll get you back.
:18:59
Please... Help me!
