Admiral Paris, Starfleet Technician and others in “Unfinished Business”

[Admiral Paris inspects the MIDAS Array in the wake of Lt Barclay's rebellion]

APAdmiral Paris

[to Commander Harkins] You've put me in a difficult position, son. I was hoping that we'd be able to-

STStarfleet Technician

We're receiving a transmission.

PParis

From where?

STStarfleet Technician

Coordinates 343.6 by 27.

LRLt. Reginald Barclay

The wormhole.

[cuts in audio] Starfleet Command. Come in.

PParis

[soft voice] Voyager.

CPCdr. Pete Harkins

Reg, give me a hand clearing up the signal. [Paris gestures Barclay to do it]

BBarclay

Lower the filter band by 0.3 kilohertz.

This is Capt. Kathryn Janeway, do you read me?

HHarkins

[to Barclay] I think she's talking to you.

BBarclay

Captain, this is Lt. Reginald Barclay at Starfleet Command.

It's good to hear your voice, Lieutenant. We've been waiting a long time for this moment.

BBarclay

The feeling is mutual. Unfortunately, the micro-wormhole is collapsing. We have only a few moments.

Understood. [signals Tuvok] We're transmitting our ship's logs, crew reports, and navigational records to you now.

BBarclay

Acknowledged. And we're sending you data on some new hypersubspace technology. We're hoping eventually to use it to keep in regular contact, and we're including some recommended modifications for your comm system.

We'll implement them as soon as possible.

BBarclay

There's someone else here who would also like to say something.

PParis

This is Admiral Paris.

Hello, sir.

PParis

How are your people holding up?

Very well. They're an exemplary crew. Your son included.

PParis

Tell him... Tell him I miss him. And I'm proud of him.

He heard you, Admiral.

BBarclay

The wormhole is collapsing..

PParis

I want you all to know we're doing everything we can to bring you home.

We appreciate it, sir. Keep a docking bay open for us. We hope to see you - [signal is cut]

BBarclay

That's it. They're gone.

HHarkins

You did it, Reg. I'm sorry I doubted you.

[Barclay looks crestfallen.]

PParis

Why the long face, Mr. Barclay?

BBarclay

Because... because it's over, sir.

PParis

No, Lieutenant. I'd say that "Project: Voyager" is just beginning. Thanks to you.
