Bridge.
Kim: "They've transmitted a signal."
Janeway: "Scan for Hirogen ships."
Chakotay: "I've got two vessels on long range sensors."
Janeway: "Is the pulse ready?"
Torres: "Yes ma'am."
Chakotay: "Both Hirogen vessels have altered course to intercept."
Janeway: "How long?"
Chakotay: "Less than an hour."
Janeway: "You and Donik get down to Engineering. Charge the deflector."

Doctor: "Captain, what are you doing?" Janeway: "Taking the holograms offline." Doctor: "They're counting on you to help them, not deactivate them." Janeway: "When the Hirogen arrive there's going to be more bloodshed. The best way to avoid that is to shut the holograms down. It may be the most compassionate thing we can do." Doctor: "Compassionate for whom?" Janeway: "It's a temporary measure, Doctor. Their programs won't be damaged. Harry, get me Iden."

Iden: "Captain Janeway. It is an honour to meet you." Janeway: "I'm afraid we don't have time for pleasantries. Two Hirogen vessels are on their way." Iden: "We're prepared to fight them." Janeway: "I'm hoping that won't be necessary. I need you to activate your programs so we can transfer them to Voyager's database." Iden: "We didn't come here to be put back into captivity."

Janeway: "It's the best I can offer. Once we've determined it's safe we'll reactivate you and discuss a permanent solution." Iden: "There is no guarantee you'll ever reactivate us." Janeway: "You're going to have to trust me." Iden: "I'm sorry, Captain. I've learned from experience not to trust organics." Janeway: "We have the means to deactivate you by force but I'd rather not do that." Iden: "It seems the Doctor misrepresented you. You're no different from the Hirogen."

The screenshot shows the Doctor, at the end of the exchange between Iden and Janeway. Chakotay: "They're charging weapons." Janeway: "Shields." Kim: "They're moving away." Janeway: "Set a pursuit course. Target their shield regenerators." Doctor: "Please reconsider what you're doing." Janeway: "You're dismissed, Doctor. Get down to the Messhall. Give Tom a hand. Janeway to Engineering." Torres, via comms.: "Torres here." Janeway: "Stand by to initiate the pulse." Torres, via comms.: Aye, Captain."
The Doctor slowly enters the turbolift, deep in thought. He orders the turbolift: "Messhall." Then: "Belay that. Sickbay."
In Sickbay the Doctor works the controls at a console, and the computer responds: "Download complete." He takes a PADD into his office and initiates a communications signal through his portable computer. Doctor: "Doctor to Iden, respond."

Iden: "What do you want?" Doctor: "I want to help you." Iden: "You've done enough." Doctor: "I have data on the pulse they intend to use to deactivate you. I think I can help you come up with a defence. I'm transmitting our shield frequencies. You'll need them to beam me off the ship but you have to promise me you won't use them to attack Voyager." Iden: "You have my word."

The Doctor is beamed to Iden's ship. He hands Iden his PADD. Iden looks at the data, then turns to him. "Why are you doing this?" Doctor: "Because I'm one of you."

This is where Part One ends (as aired on the television screen).

	Weiss: "We have their shield frequencies. We should target their bridge." Doctor: "You're talking about my friends!" Weiss: "Your friends are trying to destroy us! We should kill them." Doctor: "You gave me your word!" Iden: "I did. We'll find another way."
	Chakotay: "Their shields are down." Janeway: "Now, B'Elanna." The pulse is initiated through Voyager's main deflector and it starts causing serious damage to Iden's ship. Aboard Iden's ship Kejal reports: "They're emitting a pulse on a triaxillating bandwidth."
	Iden: "Reconfigure the tracking beam to the inverse frequency and fire." Janeway: "B'Elanna, report." Torres: "They're creating a feedback surge. I don't understand how they could have isolated our frequency so quickly."

Seven: "The main deflector is overloading." Torres: "Shut it down." Seven: "I can't."
On the Bridge Janeway ducks an explosion.

Explosions on the Bridge cause damage.

Torres: "Keep trying. If we can't block the surge the core is going to breach." Seven: "Get down, Lieutenant!" Torres: "Not until I get this forcefield online." Suddenly Torres is struck by an energy blast and collapses unconscious with a severe burn.

Kejal: "They're adrift." Weiss: "We should go to warp." Iden: "Not yet. Scan Voyager for a Klingon lifesign." Doctor: "What are you doing?" Kejal: "One detected." Iden: "Get a transporter lock."

Seven: "Help me get her to Sickbay." But at that moment Torres is beamed off the ship. As she materialises aboard Iden's vessel, Iden gives the order: "Take us to warp."

The Doctor examines the injured Torres.
Iden: "Will she be alright?"
Doctor: "She needs to be in Voyager's Sickbay."
Iden: "You can treat her here."
Doctor: "Why have you done this?"
Iden: "You said she was an expert in holotechnology."
Doctor: "And that justifies abducting her?!"
Iden: "We're in a desperate situation. The Hirogen are hunting us and so are your people."
Doctor: "I trusted you."
Iden: "I could have destroyed Voyager while the shields were down, but I didn't. You've been trying to convince me that all organics aren't alike. I'm giving Lieutenant Torres the chance to prove you're right."
Doctor: "You honestly expect her to be sympathetic after what you've done?"
Iden: "You weren't very sympathetic at first."
Doctor: "I came here by choice and I'm beginning to think it was a mistake."
Iden: "It wasn't. I don't want you to regret it, not for a moment."
Doctor: "Then send her back."
Iden: "I will, but not until she's had a chance to decide if she wants to help us."
Doctor: "And if she refuses?"
Iden: "I'll give her an escape pod, let her return to Voyager. You have my word."

In engineering the staff are hard at work repairing the damaged systems.
Seven: Engineering systems and main power should be operational soon. The deflector is a different matter.
Chakotay: "How long?"
Seven: "Four hours at least. If Lieutenant Torres were here she might be able to repair it more efficiently."
Janeway: "That's high praise coming from you. I'm sure she'd appreciate it."
Seven: "If she hadn't reinforced the core, we'd all be dead."
Chakotay: "I still don't understand how they managed to counteract the pulse so easily."

Tuvok enters, overhears and answers. "I believe I can answer that. According to sensor logs they calibrated their feedback surge to the exact inverse of our pulse frequency." Janeway talks as she looks at the PADD handed her by Tuvok: "It was either a lucky guess or they gained access to our tactical data." She peers more closely at the data as if she cannot believe it: "The Doctor." Tuvok: "He sent an encrypted transmission from Sickbay then transported himself to their ship." Janeway says meaningfully: "Chakotay." Chakotay and Janeway leave engineering - they have to discuss this serious turn of events.

Janeway: "I should have seen this coming." Chakotay: "You had no way of knowing the Doctor would do this." Janeway: "Are you sure? He was so adamant about helping those holograms. I should've been paying closer attention." Chakotay: "Are you saying it was a mistake to reject his plan?" Janeway: "The mistake was not running a diagnostic on his program the minute he came back to the ship." Chakotay: "You think these holograms manipulated him somehow." Janeway: "He was on their ship for days. For all we know, they reconfigured his entire matrix." Chakotay: "There is another possibility. He may have done what he did because he genuinely believes in their cause."

Janeway: "I could accept that the Doctor has sympathy for these...'people', but I can't accept that he would deliberately risk the lives of this entire crew. We're his family."
Chakotay: "Maybe that's how he started to think of these holograms."

In the lab/engineering section of Iden's ship, Torres and the Doctor talk together alone. Torres: "You can tell this Iden that I don't need time to think it over. I'll take the escape pod now." Doctor: "You're in no condition to pilot a spacecraft." Torres: "Then you can do it." Doctor: "I'm not going back." Torres surmises: "You helped them escape." Doctor: "I couldn't just stand by while Captain Janeway tried to deactivate them." Torres: "Did you also help them kidnap me?!" Doctor: "No, I didn't know they were going to do that! I'm sorry." Torres: "You can apologise later. Right now we've got to get out of here." Doctor: "I don't think I could go back, even if I wanted to, not after what I've done." Torres: "What's your alternative?" Doctor: "I can try to make a new life with the holograms." Torres: "I don't believe I'm hearing this."

Doctor: "We share a common heritage. I understand them in ways you never could."
Torres: "You're part of a crew. You can't just switch allegiances when you develop sympathy for someone else."
Doctor: "Isn't that what you did when you joined the Maquis?"
Torres: "That was different."
Doctor: "How? You saw people who were being oppressed and you came to their defence. That's exactly what I've done."
Torres: "Look, I am no fan of the Hirogen. They've obviously been abusing these holograms."
Doctor: "Then why not help them?"
Torres: "For one thing, I'm their prisoner."
Doctor: "They'll let you go, as soon as you're well enough."
Torres: "You really believe that."
Doctor: "If I didn't I would be asking for your help. They don't want you to fight for them, they just want you to modify some technology so that they can live in peace. You'd be helping to stop the violence. Just talk to them. Decide for yourself."

On the Bridge of Iden's ship, Weiss approaches Iden who is ending his prayers.
Weiss: "They've been in the lab for two hours."
Iden: "It's taking time for her injuries to heal. Organics aren't as resilient as we are."
Weiss: "She's an engineer, Iden. For all we know she's trying to sabotage the ship. At least let me see what they're doing."
Iden: "We can trust the Doctor."
Weiss: "Even after you kidnapped his friend?"
Iden: "He understands why I had to do that."
Weiss: "I hope you're right."
Iden: "You need to have a little more faith, my friend."
Weiss: "Not all of us were programmed were your er spiritual beliefs."

At that moment the Doctor helps Torres onto the Bridge where she looks round at the holograms.

Apart from the above there is the Breen hologram, Klingon hologram and several human holograms programmed to represent Starfleet personnel.
Torres: "It looks like an Alpha Quadrant summit in here."

Iden: "I'm glad to see you're feeling better. Please excuse my crew. They're not comfortable with organics." Torres: "I can't say I'm very comfortable myself." Iden: "The Doctor tells me you're an accomplished engineer." Torres: "He speaks highly of you too. He seems to be easily impressed." Doctor: "You'll have to forgive her. She's-" Iden: "It's alright. I understand you're angry. I'm hoping that once we get to know each other you'll feel different."

Torres: "I'm not here to make friends."
Iden: "We're not asking for your friendship just your expertise."
Doctor: "I told her about the photonic field generator."
Iden: "Will you at least take a look at it?"
Torres: "I'll look but I'm not making any promises."
Iden: "This is Kejal. She'll assist you."
Torres eyes Kejal without warmth. Kejal is a Cardassian female hologram. As a member of the Maquis Torres fought Cardassians.
