The stage darkens as a young woman stands in the center. She is definitely part Klingon but her blood has in fact been diluted. The spot light shines on her as she holds the mic to her lips.

"This song id dedicated to my parents in particular my mother. This song is a story of her. Written in the Early 21st century. By a woman named Kelly Clarkson. You see Kelly's father skipped out on his family. Leaving Kelly her mom and siblings alone. When Kelly grew a bit older she tracked her father down a begged him to be her father. But her refused. Then when she became a world famous recording artist he tried crawling back into her life. He would ask for money and return she would get to hear her daddy say he loved her. But after she cut ties with him she met her husband that slowly rebuilt her trust in men and fathers after she became pregnant with their first child. . . A daughter."

A photo of a young B'Elanna Torres appeared on the screen stage rear.

"This is my mother Lieutenant Commander B'Elanna Torres. Half Klingon. Former chief engineer aboard the USS Voyager. A Maquis Rebel. A refugee. A child whose Father walked out on her and My Grandmother, who I am named after. While my Mother was aboard the Voyager she meet my Mama."

The imaged changed to show a cadet photo of Kathryn Janeway."

"Vice Admiral Kathryn Janeway. Former Captain of Voyager. Daughter of Admiral Edward and Gretchen Janeway and sister to Pheobe. This woman met my Mother and saw something in her that made her want to listen and help and love her. And in doing that she helped my Mother heal."

As the song plays in the back ground photos of her parents flashed across the screen. The first verse and chorus showed pictures of each parent growing up right up to B'Elanna joining the Maquis and Kathryn getting her commission of Voyager. The second, flashing through to their wedding. The bridge flashed through snap shots of B'Elanna's suprise reveal, that she planed with the rest of the Voyager crew to tell Kathryn she was pregnant. The clips showed Kathryn looking around the messhall at her crew wonder what was going on. Of her approaching B'Elanna who was seated asking what was wrong. The next the Doctor handing Kathryn a medical tricorder and Kathryn looking over at him in confusion. Then of her scanning the seated Half Klingon and her face changing from shock to joy. To her melting down to her knees in tears of joy. You could see the crew around them smiling and claps stalled in mid air. The next few photos were of B'Elanna standing and Kathryn wrapping her arms around her wife's waist resting her face on her still flat stomach. The final long note of the bridge showed a live action black and white close up of Kathryn turning her head and placing her lips over B'Elanna's abdomen. It faded out as the final abridged chorus began. Photos of B'Elanna growing and the day she gave birth to their daughter. And the three of them as a family watching their daughter grow up. The final line of the song passed and the girl was once again bathed in bright light.

"I am Miral Getchen Janeway. Professor. Author. Literary and Pop Culture Analyst. Daughter. And whole. Because of the strength of the Love my Parents have for each other; I can look at photos of my Grandfather and say I fell even farther from the tree. Thank You."
