Clips from Star Trek: Discovery - Species Ten-C (S04E04)

"ZORA: Captain, the being is excreting"
Star Trek: Discovery
"a mist of large organic molecule clusters."
Star Trek: Discovery
"- BURNHAM: Can you analyze them, Zora? - Of course."
Star Trek: Discovery
"All of the supramolecules are identical."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Each is comprised of dozens of the same hydrocarbons"
Star Trek: Discovery
"you found on their home planet."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Which hydrocarbons, exactly?"
Star Trek: Discovery
"Each molecule is 25% joy, 22% sadness,"
Star Trek: Discovery
"17% peacefulness, 14% irritation,"
Star Trek: Discovery
"12% surprise and ten percent fear."
Star Trek: Discovery
"That's six of the 16 emotions we know they can feel."
Star Trek: Discovery
"It's nonsensical."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Perhaps it is attempting to convey all six emotions"
Star Trek: Discovery
"simultaneously."
Star Trek: Discovery
"[whirring]"
Star Trek: Discovery
"Incredible. What could that mean?"
Star Trek: Discovery
"That complex of a pattern has to be for communication, somehow."
Star Trek: Discovery
"ZORA: You may be right, Captain."
Star Trek: Discovery
"The light pattern was identical both times."
Star Trek: Discovery
"If that's their language, then the hydrocarbons"
Star Trek: Discovery
"must convey emotional inflection and context."
Star Trek: Discovery
"We need to mirror the light pattern back to them."
Star Trek: Discovery
"How will that move us forward?"
Star Trek: Discovery
"It'll show them we recognize this"
Star Trek: Discovery
"as an effort to communicate."
Star Trek: Discovery
"From there, we'll need to find a way"
Star Trek: Discovery
"to convey simple and then more complex thoughts."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Sounds like the start of a frighteningly long process."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Could be."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Hmm."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Zora, can you project the light pattern back to the Ten-C?"
Star Trek: Discovery
"ZORA: Yes, Captain, I just need a moment."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Something's happening near shuttle bay."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Hey, take a look."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Lights of some kind."
Star Trek: Discovery
"What are they?"
Star Trek: Discovery
"Doesn't matter."
Star Trek: Discovery
"You found us a way out?"
Star Trek: Discovery
"- [comm beeps] - NODYE: It's Ndoye."
Star Trek: Discovery
"- We have a problem. - What is it? Is everyone okay?"
Star Trek: Discovery
"[sighs] Fine,"
Star Trek: Discovery
"except that the universal translators won't work,"
Star Trek: Discovery
"communication needs to start from scratch,"
Star Trek: Discovery
"and we have only 12 hours before the DMA reaches Earth."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Won't take nearly that long to get us out of here,"
Star Trek: Discovery
"but we will need help pushing off Discovery."
Star Trek: Discovery
"What kind of help?"
Star Trek: Discovery
"I need to ignite a plasma stream"
Star Trek: Discovery
"so I can burn a hole in the Ten-C's orb."
Star Trek: Discovery
"From there, a simple reversed tractor beam will repel us"
Star Trek: Discovery
"back out of the hole, no engines required."
Star Trek: Discovery
"NDOYE: Where do I come in?"
Star Trek: Discovery
"You'll hack Discovery's systems and vent the plasma"
Star Trek: Discovery
"through the starboard nacelle."
Star Trek: Discovery
"You must be joking."
Star Trek: Discovery
"TARKA: I assure you, I'm not."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Feeding information is one thing."
Star Trek: Discovery
"This is a betrayal."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Well, if diplomacy starts working, we'll stand down,"
Star Trek: Discovery
"but right now, it sounds like we can't even say hello."
Star Trek: Discovery
"This will stop the DMA."
Star Trek: Discovery
"No one else has to die."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Please."
Star Trek: Discovery
"We can't do this without you."
Star Trek: Discovery
"[sighs] Let me know when he's ready."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Sending the override codes now."
Star Trek: Discovery
"And, General..."
Star Trek: Discovery
"thank you."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Once Zora projects the pattern back to them,"
Star Trek: Discovery
"hopefully the Ten-C respond with a new message."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Mr. Saru, stand by for analysis."
Star Trek: Discovery
"- Ready, Zora? - ZORA: I am."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Sending the message now."
Star Trek: Discovery
"♪"
Star Trek: Discovery
"What happened? Why is it leaving?"
Star Trek: Discovery
"Did Zora replicate the light pattern exactly?"
Star Trek: Discovery
"She did."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Uh, the Ten-C sent the same pattern back to us once again."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Curious."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Maybe they want us to answer back, not just mimic."
Star Trek: Discovery
"It is possible they do not yet see us as sentient beings."
Star Trek: Discovery
"We have a spaceship. We warped here."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Clearly we're sentient."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Compared to them, our technology's primitive."
Star Trek: Discovery
"They've achieved level two on the Kardashev scale,"
Star Trek: Discovery
"maybe beyond."
Star Trek: Discovery
"It's like comparing a human to a monkey with a rock."
Star Trek: Discovery
"[Burnham sighs]"
Star Trek: Discovery
"Zora, compare the pattern to both Federation"
Star Trek: Discovery
"and non-Federation linguistic databases."
Star Trek: Discovery
"ZORA: Great minds think alike, Captain. I was just doing so."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Unfortunately, there's no known comparison."
Star Trek: Discovery
"I'm not seeing the redundancy and patterning"
Star Trek: Discovery
"I'd expect from language, either."
Star Trek: Discovery
"You're saying it's not a language?"
Star Trek: Discovery
"It may be, but it's unlike any I've ever encountered."
Star Trek: Discovery
"We lack the tools to understand it,"
Star Trek: Discovery
"in which case, it may as well not be."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Well, there is a pattern here, we just have to find it."
Star Trek: Discovery
"SARU: Well, solving the hydrocarbon mystery required"
Star Trek: Discovery
"a variety of perspectives."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Perhaps that would help us again?"
Star Trek: Discovery
"Detmer, Nilsson, Christopher,"
Star Trek: Discovery
"please report to shuttle bay, now."
Star Trek: Discovery
"- [quiet chatter] - CULBER: Nice move."
Star Trek: Discovery
"- Your sine wave is stabilized. - ZORA: The game's helping."
Star Trek: Discovery
"I still can't identify the exact moment"
Star Trek: Discovery
"I started feeling so distracted,"
Star Trek: Discovery
"but I found an anomalous event"
Star Trek: Discovery
"that occurred around the same time:"
Star Trek: Discovery
"a replicator-system malfunction."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Commander Reno fixed it."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Oh, well, maybe she can shed some light."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Commander Reno, it's Dr. Culber."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Zora, where's Commander Reno?"
Star Trek: Discovery
"My sensors show her in Engineering."
Star Trek: Discovery
"Oh. She's probably helping Paul figure out"
Star Trek: Discovery
"a way out of this orb. I'll talk to her."
Star Trek: Discovery
"One of my professors at the Academy used to say"
Star Trek: Discovery
"that if a problem stumps you, examine your assumptions."
