Alerting them that at the time, it was primarily affecting the [[Klingon]] population of the primary colony, they immediately began plans to implement a proper quarantine and relief to the colony. Implementing a rather risky plan to land the ship, given the age of the {{class|Norway}}-class spaceframe and damage from the persistent mission, they began to perform a dual outreach and medical relief mission<ref>[https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/sb118-montreal/c-Sk-wA3i5U '' | Alerting them that at the time, it was primarily affecting the [[Klingon]] population of the primary colony, they immediately began plans to implement a proper quarantine and relief to the colony.

Choosing to perform the diplomatic outreach directly, Mei'konda left the Rosek in command of the ship and left for the central visit to see General Eth'ek of the Klingon house Cirposh. Meanwhile, the Montreal immediately had to deal with two ships attempting to breach quarantine at the same time their medical and science teams were rushing to create two makeshift quarantine wards. Disabling the two ships, the shuttle patrol issued by the Montreal aided in rescuing the people stranded one of the more damaged freighters. During this tense moment, Lt. [[German Galven]], the Chief of Science inadvertently made a tense situation worse by questioning Rosek's choices on the bridge, forcing Rosek to reprimand him in private.<ref>[https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/sb118-montreal/qjqPUFmmEM8 ''Lieutenant Commander Lael Rosek: What Is Done Cannot Be Undone'']</ref> | ||

Due to the time limit, and the attack on the medical facility, the crew of the Montreal accelerated their plan and executed a much more daring one. The plan, a hybrid of the ones proposed by Commander [[Tal Tel-ar|Tel-ar]] and Ensigns [[Sotak]] and [[Tiria Hamasaki|Hamasaki]], was two fold. Force a shuttle to reach a warp core-breach at the same time it rammed the ''Miran's Tifar'', and then accelerate from the surface to attack. | Due to the time limit, and the attack on the medical facility, the crew of the Montreal accelerated their plan and executed a much more daring one.
