I started posting the script a while back and got to the end of act two. We have now started to post a bit from the last (3rd) act every week at the Gatekeeper forums, and I will do so here as well. Here goes:
Act 3 Sequence 1/ Scene 1
Actors: Janeway: Irene Brustad UFP President: Barbara Adams Captain Kirk: Steinar Sirevåg Captain Picard: Tomos Frater Captain Archer: Christofer Wikner
(Setting: The Gatekeeper Bridge)
Fade in
We are on the bridge of the Gatekeeper Station, and Captain Janeway is looking at Captain Kirk with disbelief in her face. President Sedak walks up behind her.
Captain Janeway: That's not possible! Admiral Kirk died on Viridian 3. I visited his grave with my grandfather when I was 5.
Kirk: You're right! He did! You might say I'm an echo left behind after his visit in the Nexus. Unlike my esteemed colleagues I cannot leave the aura surrounding it. Let me present you to… (turnes): Jonathan Archer…
Jonathan Archer: Captain! Don't let our appearances confuse you! In the Nexus time is relative.
Kirk: ...and Admiral Jean-Luc Picard!
Jean-Luke Picard: Please to meet you, Captain! Would you be so kind as to gather your team in the…you still got a briefing room I take it?
Elisabeth Janeway: (As if wakening up from a doze) Eh…yes! We do!
Kirk: 15 minutes?
Elisabeth Janeway: Yes, Sir….Admiral!
Kirk: (smiles) I've been dead for…what? 5…600 years? James will do nicely!
He walks past her and joins Picard now waiting for him by the door, Archer on his way out shaking his head.
Jean-Luke Picard: We've been her five minutes and already you're flirting!
Kirk: You' always were a party pooper, Jean-Luc!
Elisabeth Janeway watches them until the doors close and then looks down into the floor. Thoughtful!
Sedak: You look disappointed!
Elisabeth Janeway: (Still in her own world) No….(waking up) No! For a moment there I hoped I would get to...
Sedak: I understand! I will gather the team!
Elisabeth Janeway: Please!
She heads for the door.
Sedak: Oh yes!
Elisabeth stops and turns!
Sedak: You need to make a stop at your private quarters…You have a visitor!
Elisabeth Janeway's eyes starts glowing! She smiles and hurries out through the doors...
(Setting: Corridor outside Elisabeth Janeway's Quarters)
...running through the corridors and finally reach the doors of her private quarters. She pauses for a while and then step in front of the doors, which opens.
(Setting: Elisabeth Janeway's Quarters)
A woman is standing in front of the window with her hands on her back. She turns, and steps forward out of the shadow covering her face.
Woman: (Gently) Elisabeth?
Elisabeth Janeway: Yes!
Woman: (smiles) I'm KATHRYN Janeway! I've been wanting to meet you for a long time!

Act 3 Sequence 1/ Scene 2
Actors: Computer Voice: Denise Crosby Sedak: Barbara Adams Camilia: Nicola Powell Lt. Welch: James Brocka Elisabeth Janeway: Irene Brustad
(Setting: Gatekeeper Bridge)
Gatekeeper logo appearing and the computer voice is heard:
Computer Voice: Incoming message from The Whitehead.
Sedak: Open (????)
The face of Camilia is seen on the screen!
Camilia: We got the girl!
Sedak: Well done! Have Doctor Brady take a look at her and…
Camilia: Ma’am!
Sedak stops and look at her and Camilia sighs.
Sedak: What happened?
Camilia looks up and pauses shortly before speaking!
Camilia: We lost Tomak!
Sedak closes her eyes but gives no feelings away.
Camilia: (Slowly) Vader was there. His powers were far beyond anything I’ve…..(sighs again). He never stood a chance. But there’s more! When we left the planet the Whitehead did a standard security scan on the inside and outside of the vessel. It seems we had a stowaway.
She pushed a few buttons not seen by the view screen and an ID card is displayed on the screen. Its Elisabeth Janeway's little brother Robert Janeway.
Sedak: (mumbling) But off course! She cannot learn of this until we find a way to get him out of there. Do you understand?
Lt. Welch: (low) Eh….Ma'am!
Sedak turns and Captain Janeway is standing behind her in the turbo lift.
Elisabeth Janeway: She already knows!
The turbo lift doors closes!
Sedak to the officer that warned her:
Sedak: Have Riley and Komiri meet me in my private quarters…and have Lauren do a seminar on…(clearly picks a subject at random)…dimensional rifts at the Academy - starting in thirty minutes!
The Officer turns toward his panels and pushes a button.
Quick fade to black.
*** Act 3 Sequence 1/ Scene 3
Actors: Elisabeth Janeway: Irene Brustad Lt. Davies: Adam Browne R2D2: Undecided Bay Com System: Alexander Angeltveit
(Setting: Cargo Bay)
Quick fade from black!
The Turbo Lift doors opens and Janeway walks into the Cargo Bay. Lt. Davies is working on a small fighter resembling a futuristic Spitfire and with the name Lundgren on the side.
Janeway: Is she ready to go?
Lt. Davies: Yes, Ma'am!
Janeway: Good!
She climbs the ladder into the tight cockpit.
Lt. Davies: She's a fine ship, Ma'am! What's her story!
Janeway: She's my first one. Designed it myself together with my grandfather.
A number of "beeps" are heard behind her and Janeway suddenly release that R2-D2 is placed in a new custom made hatch behind the cockpit.
Janeway: What did you do, Lt?
Lt. Davies: I followed the president's orders captain!
Janeway: It's gone through her completely out of balance.
Lt. Davies: No, Ma'am! I compensated with an AG-Zero and an AD-comp.
Janeway looks at him somewhat sceptical.
"Beeping" from R2-D2.
Janeway: Did you compensate for the over sized alarm clock beeping in my ear through this entire flight as well?
Lt. Davies: Well…yes! I did! I installed a com system translating his…communication into speech.
He leans into the cockpit and push a button.
Janeway: (mumbling while Davies climb back down the ladder) Well aren't you the clever one?
R2-D2: (With a young boy's voice) Will you try not to loop? I tend to fall out!
Janeway: We're not going sightseeing, R2!
Lt Davies: So where ARE you going, Ma'am?
Janeway: I've got some unfinished business to attend to, Lt.
Lt. Davies looks at her for a moment.
Lt. Davies: Would I be out of order if I asked you to make a stop on your way, Ma'am?
Janeway: Yes you would, Lt! You're not one of mine, are you?
Lt. Davies: No, Ma'am! I'm not!
Janeway: R2
R2 opens a hatch and a small metal pipe appears, shooting a laser beam toward Davies. Seen from over Davies' shoulder a huge flicker of light from a thick light beam is seen twirling once in front of him and the sound of high voltage is heard. The camera follows Davies' arm and stops at his hand holding a lightsaber - just as he turns it off. Seen from Janeway's view Davies is putting it back into his uniform jacket.
Lt. Davies: But I assure you I'm friendly.
R2-D2: He's a Jedi, Ma'am!
Janeway: No kidding!
Lt. Davies: I apologise for deceiving you, Ma'am. That was never my attention.
Bay Com system: You are cleared for departure, Captain!
Lt. Davies: The coordinates are programmed into the system, Ma'am! Have a safe trip!
The cockpit closes, and the ship rice from the floor and out the force field around the Bay door.
(Setting: Outside the Station)
From the cockpit we see Janeway in close up and the station getting smaller behind her.
R2-D2: Are we there yet?
Janeway rolls her eyes and take the ship in a roll outside the camera frame, and R2s scream is heard as the scene fades to black.

Act 3 Sequence 1/ Scene 4
Actors: President Sedak: Barbara Adams Lt. Welch: James Brocka Ferman Komiri: Kenneth Lund Riley: Christian Kinell Lauren: Irene Mathisen
(Setting: Corridor outside the TimePort)
Komiri and Riley is hiding behind a corner as Welsh is walking an upset Lauren along the corridor, past the two.
Lauren: But half an hour?
Welsh: I'm sure you know it all by heart!
Lauren: I do but…well…I guess I could talk about cmb radiation within the….
Welsh: Sounds absolutely smashing! Now let's get cracking!
Komiri and Riley step out of the shadows and stop outside the TimePort door. Riley opens his tricorder, pushes a few symbols on the screen and points it toward the door. The door shirps once but do not open. He looks at the screen and his shoulders fall.
Riley: The port is protected with a time delay.
Kimiri: A what?
Riley: It's virtually frozen in time which means there's nothing I can do to effect the door at all.
Sedak is suddenly standing behind them.
Sedak: Security override Sedak Gamma 476 Delta.
(Setting: From inside the TimePort)
The door opens.
Kimiri: Would this by any chance be illegal according to Starfleet regulations?
Sedak: It would!
Komiri: Good.
They all walk into the room.
Kimiri: So what are we doing here?
Sedak: Starfleet's ethics have proven to be a tremendous strength. Unfortunately they also have a great weakness…
Looks at the two.
Sedak: …their ethics.
Riley and Komiri glance at each other.
Sedak: In our enemy's eyes ethics are not even a factor. There are no limits to what they are willing to do to reach their goal. Starfleet will not even know what hit them. However!
Pushed a few buttons on a panel and a number of photos and drawings are displayed on a screen.
Sedak: Through old Earth's history this was not always a problem. Your warlords are known for deeds far beyond even our enemy's imagination.
Kimiri and Rilay flinch in shock as photos not visible for the camera flashed before them.
Riley: I'm glad they're not around anymore!
Sedak: I need you to bring them back and into the 29th Century.
Riley looks like he's about to have a heart attack!
Riley: Say what?
Fade out
