With the Gorn,
best I can explain,

544
00:29:07,049 --> 00:29:09,791
I-I did a quick assessment
of their scanning tech,

545
00:29:09,835 --> 00:29:12,707
and I saw how
they recognized each other.

546
00:29:12,751 --> 00:29:14,709
It's similar to
our transponders,

547
00:29:14,753 --> 00:29:16,580

00:29:24,197 --> 00:29:26,068

like a Gorn ship.

558

right where they were headed.

We've determined the location
from which the field emanates.

589
00:31:23,533 --> 00:31:25,622
Short version:
by adjusting our output,

590
00:31:25,666 --> 00:31:29,017

596
00:31:40,986 --> 00:31:44,859
I'm betting it's some kind of
machine the Gorn brought.

597
00:31:44,903 --> 00:31:46,948
If we can destroy it,

598
00:31:46,992 --> 00:31:48,907
we can resume comms
and transporter signals.

599
00:31:48,950 --> 00:31:50,734

is there's no way for us

getting into a larger war.

601
00:31:53,215 --> 00:31:55,217
We can't fire weapons,

602
00:31:55,261 --> 00:31:57,219
but we already know

603
00:31:57,263 --> 00:32:00,179
that the Gorn don't respond
to space debris.

604
00:32:00,222 --> 00:32:03,530
So, all we have to do is find
a way to get a piece of debris,

605
00:32:03,573 --> 00:32:07,099

617
