- Captain Kathryn Janeway: All stations prepare for departure. Condition blue, Mr. Tuvok. Ms. Torres, anti-grav thrusters online.
- Lieutenant B'Elanna Torres: Thrusters enabled.

- Captain Kathryn Janeway: Mister Paris, alter our course to follow that trail of rust. One quarter impulse.
- Lieutenant Tom Paris: Aye, Captain.
