USS Vico Transporter Field Trace
Geordi checks the USS Vico's forensic logs at the Enterprise bridge science station and finds no residual transporter field traces. Data and Picard review the empty readings alongside docking logs, which show zero anomalies. This absent signature—normally detectable as lingering energy patterns from beam-ins—directly contradicts Timothy's boarding party claim. Troi joins the analysis, shifting focus from hard data to the boy's trauma.

Purpose
Records residual energy signatures from transporter materializations for forensic verification of beam-in activity.
Significance
