This is Kirk. I'm unable to make contact with Spock, Scotty and Sulu, they were all here yesterday. I want everybody looking for them. [ A sigh. ] If anyone hears from Gaila, Dax, Tom Paris or Christopher Pike, I want to know about that too. Anyone from Starfleet is to check in with me immediately.
I think they were removed from the City, but I want to be sure. Additionally, we have Captain Janeway newly arrived. Chekov, I want you to fill her in on whatever you can, I already gave her your version of what's going on but you can explain it better in person.
Kirk out.

I understand you're upset. [ He's not loving the fact half his people just vanished either, notably some more than others. Keeping his tone level, Jim raises his brows. ] But you're a Starfleet officer. We do not shrug and kick our heels when a member of our crew goes missing. Either we'll find them in the City or we won't, but we will know. First-hand.
If this doesn't make sense to you, listen to me when I say it should.

There's a man on the network introducing himself as John Harrison. That's a false name. His name is Khan Noonien Singh, a genetically-engineered Human Augment of the late-20th century Eugenics Wars. He's an enemy of Starfleet and one hell of a dangerous guy. I'm only the doctor, not the captain, but I'm advising you guys against all contact.
When Jim gets better, he'll answer your questions. At the moment, please keep your distance. I don't want any of you guys getting into trouble.
McCoy out.

[Crackle, crackle. The speaker is utterly unamused, but the perceptive can detect a tiny note of worry in his voice. What's audible through the static, anyway.]
I do not understand the humor in this.

[He wastes no time and does not even bother disguising the worry in his voice. She sounds sick, like Jim did. This is unacceptable. He has half a mind to shout at McCoy (actually shout), even if he knows the man must be doing everything he can.]
Nyota. I am coming.
