All successful. 236 00:23:09,638 --> 00:23:11,347 Beyond that, we know nothing. 237 00:23:11,807 --> 00:23:15,894 Well, it seems as though we're truly sailing into the unknown. 238 00:23:17,271 --> 00:23:21,441 Keep at it. Anything you can give me will be appreciated. Dismissed. 239 00:23:22,735 --> 00:23:26,154 I still can't believe the Captain went along with a memory download. 240 00:23:27,907 --> 00:23:30,992 Captain Picard agrees that the B-4 was probably designed 241 00:23:31,077 --> 00:23:34,496 with the same self-actualization parameters as myself. 242 00:23:35,331 --> 00:23:40,251 If my memory engrams are successfully integrated into his positronic matrix, 243 00:23:40,836 --> 00:23:42,754 he should have all my abilities. 244 00:23:42,922 --> 00:23:46,216 Yeah.
