They don't need a specialist to work on their warp drive. Sarah Thompson says that according to Admiral Delgado, it is compulsory for the Valentine's warp drive to be upgraded. The transporter chief says that the specialist is ready to beam aboard the Valentine. Johnson confirms the order and tells him to transport him when they are in the transporter room.

Meanwhile, the chief energizes the specialist, showing a human in a strange uniform and an unknown alien person. Justin Davenport whispers to Johnson and Williams that he has a weird uniform. Johnson explains it is the uniform for a specialist. Davenport sarcastically says that no wonder he has a stupid pin on his collar.
