Smoke Filling Shuttle Cabin
Smoke seeps into the shuttle cabin from failing systems as hull temperature climbs to 700 degrees. It thickens rapidly during Dirgo's reckless deuterium bypass, obscuring visibility and choking the air amid violent lurches. Picard grips the helm, Wesley calls out warnings, and Dirgo shoves aside interference while the haze engulfs them before the crash plunges the craft into darkness on the moon's surface.
