With Security Chief Quark’s approval, I performed a mind meld Victor Images to obtain information that pertained to the event of his mysterious disappearance and reappearance near the station. Due to the current circumstances it was necessary to approve or disapprove any assumptions that would affect security of the station.

Although Victor Images was frustrated with his confinement to the brig, he complied to verify his story.

I must say, the meld was intriguing, as it was my first time performing one, but I had no doubt that it would succeed. I sensed much emotion, on a private level, which in respect for Dr. Images, I will not enter in my official log. From the report he submitted to Mid. Scotts, I can verify that what he claims to be his explanation for his disappearance to be true.

Images reportedly went on leave to visit his home planet Kambana 6. Upon arriving at his destination, Images rendevous with Barry Lonsfield, his foster father, at DS9. Mr. Lonsfield is the captain of the merchant trade ship Hispaniola. He was returning from a trading business from the Cardassian border. According to Dr. Images, Lonsfield was smuggling Cardassian narcotics across the border. A report will be filed on Lonsfield and surrounding outposts will be notified of his crime. Upon his further investigation into Lonsfield’s dealings, Lonsfield suggested that Images continue to Kambana 6 in a pod which he would supply. As Images had left in the pod, Lonsfield activated a device located on the port side of the pod. Once this device was activated, the pod was subjected to a tachyon field which created a temporal fold in space enveloping the pod; disrupting the timstream within the field, which in a sense, stopped time.

Further investigation of the device and it’s technicalities will be handed over to Chief Engineer Lt. Zhu.

In conclusion of my report, I will recommend to Commander Quark that Dr. Images be released immediately and that he poses to security risk to the station.
