Soval and Shran in “Unfinished Business”

You must know that torture is rarely effective against Vulcans. Our mental disciplines allow us to suppress pain.

Shran

Our security division has had a great deal of experience extracting information from Vulcan operatives. This machine doesn't cause physical discomfort. It uses a neurosynaptic field to lower your emotional threshold. (Soval groans) How do you feel? I've seen Vulcans who were broken by this device. They were never the same again. I have no desire to see that happen to you. Where is your fleet?!

I told you! Our ships are assembling near Regulus! Release me!

Shran

I can't. Not until I'm certain you've told us the truth.

Then I suggest you increase the setting and get this over with.
