Harry entered engineering and made his way toward one of the diagnostic bay, where he had instructed the transporter room to beam the Admiral’s hardware and data recorders. Connecting them to one of the diagnostic networks, which was separate to the ship’s systems, he started to backup all of the data and configuration, just in case anything went wrong.

Once completed, he started to analyse the data from the hardware to see if there was any clues to the origin of the file that the Admiral had viewed on these devices. As he did so, he did wonder whether he would need the original file from the chip that was no concealed in the egg, or whether the Admiral had kindly left a copy on her terminal that he was now analysing.
