The alien computer projects a beautiful female assassin to kill everybody one at a time.
The assassin beams up to Enterprise and disables the Emergency Overload Bypass which sends Enterprise screaming off into parts unknown at ever increasing speed.
Scotty manages to save the day at the last second but not until they achieve warp 14.2.

And there you have it.

Thanks to all for the info on the Warp speed capabililties of the various craft. I will shoot for 14.3 on my next outing.--Bob
