The entire Enterprise crew heads off to take a shuttle to their ship (once again: they like to waste time), and once on board, Kirk calls a roll call of his crew members, as well as an inventory of the equipment loaded on board. Among this, we find a batch of 72 latest-generation stealth torpedoes, which greatly intrigues Scotty, the chief engineer: in fact, these are loaded with an unknown fuel, and placed in a sealed tank. However, the information is classified, and Scotty doesn't like loading the ship with things he doesn't understand, or even things that could endanger the crew. Krik comes to explain to him that if he doesn't like it, it's the same, to which yes, he's like that. If he's forbidden to dismantle classified equipment, where's the world going, eh?
Another find on board: Doctor Carol Pipeau, a weapons systems expert. She has just been assigned to the Enterprise, and is very excited at the idea of being able to study the new torpedoes of death that kills: alas, discovering that buy bulk sms service these are also sealed, it is a very frustrated Carol Pipeau who takes her post for the long voyage to the Klingon home planet. One last pee, a little indignation from the crew upon learning that Scotty has resigned (you can resign from secret missions like that, pif pouf, it's easy), and off to Guingamp!
Spock is skeptical: a new character AND with a name? He figures it could be important to the plot.
The Enterprise is traveling peacefully at superluminal speed, or "warp," when suddenly the ship comes out of hyperspace, making noises like " Pët pët pët " or " Kof kof reuuuuh ." Engine room? What the hell is this?
" It's the carburetor on the nuclear engine that blew up ," the new chief engineer, less gifted than his predecessor Scotty, replied, looking rather annoyed. " We'll have to finish the old-fashioned way, without distortion. " Luckily, there were only 20 minutes of travel left in normal navigation: that's good then. Our heroes therefore stop as planned at the border of Klingon territory, very discreetly, then scan the enemy planet, and more precisely the province where our wicked Rabbit has made a hiding place. The scanners detect only one form of life: it's our man and he's alone. All that's left is to drop the torpedoes, as Kirk likes to say the day after fajita nights.
