Quotes
| Ro: |
"I seems to be the pilot..." |
| Troi: |
"You seems familiar to me." |
| Riker: |
"You know me ??" |
| Troi: |
"I don't know, it's more like a feeling." |
| Picard: |
"And get hold of my opperations officer.." |
| Ro: |
"He's in Ten-Foreward, waiting tabels.." |
| Picard: |
"Captain's Log, Stardate 45494.2. We're investigating a series of subspace signals that may indicate intelligent life in the Epsilon Solar system. We are within sensor range." |
| Data: |
"A characteristic response to the Kriskoff 7, Gambit is to counter with the El Mitra Exchange, particularly since I have already taken both of your rooks. By missing that opportunity, you have left your king vulnerable." |
| Troi: |
"We'll see." |
| Data: |
"As you wish, Counselor." |
| Data: |
"Intriguing. You have devised a completely unanticipated response to a classic attack. You will checkmate my king in seven moves." |
| Troi: |
"Data, chess isn't just a game of plays and gambits. It's a game of intuition." |
| Data: |
"Hmm." |
| Data: |
"You are a challenging opponent, Counselor." |
| Troi: |
"Thanks. But don't think a compliment's going to get you out of our bet. You owe me one Sumerian Sunset made in the *traditional style*...as you can only make it, Data." |
| Data: |
"I will honor our agreement." |
| Kristin: |
"What do you think?" |
| Beverly: |
"Well, it looks like you tucked when you should've flattened out." |
| Kristin: |
"Something like that." |
| Beverly: |
"If I remember correctly, the last time you graced my Sickbay, you were diving off the Cliffs of Heaven on Sumico IV, Holodeck Program Forty-Seven C." |
| Kristin: |
"Same thing, only that time I flattened out when I should've tucked." |
| Beverly: |
"Well, as your doctor, I would like to recommend the Emerald Wading Pool on Sirus IV. A lot safer." |
| Riker: |
"The navigators on this ship have been doing flight handling assessments the same way for years, Ensign!" |
| Ro: |
"And I found a better way." |
| Riker: |
"Do you mind if we discuss changes in procedure before you make them?" |
| Ro: |
"If I had to come to you in advance and ask you to do it my way--" |
| Riker: |
"I might have said--" |
| Ro: |
"No." |
| Riker: |
"Yes, maybe." |
| Riker: |
"The point is that I didn't get the chance." |
| Ro: |
"'The point is', with all due respect, Commander, you are trying to turn me into your idea of the model officer." |
| Riker: |
"The rules on this ship do not change just because Ro Laran decides they do." |
| Data: |
"One Sumerian Sunset, made in the traditional style." |
| Troi: |
"It's beautiful." |
| Data: |
"I hope you enjoy it." [Flash] "I hope you enjoy it." |
| LaForge: |
"What the hell?" |
| Riker: |
"I don't know who any of you are." |
| Picard: |
"Neither do I. I don't...I don't even remember who I am." |
| LaForge: |
"Looks like we're all in the same boat." |
| Riker: |
"Make that 'the same starship'." |
| Ro: |
"Well, it looks like I'm the pilot." |
| Riker: |
"This console is tactical configuration." |
| Worf: |
"Yes, phaser power status, intruder scan, torpedo guidance." |
| Riker: |
"A good chance, this is our ship. Looks like you're the leader." |
| Worf: |
"Perhaps we should not jump to conclusions. *I* am decorated as well." |
| Riker: |
"The remains of another ship." |
| LaForge: |
"It's a good possibility." |
| Worf: |
"Or perhaps, we were engaged in battle."" |
| Picard: |
"Um, Computer, status report." |
| Ro: |
"That rules out our distress signal." |
| Riker: |
"If we even knew where to send it." |
| Picard: |
"This ship must have a crew." |
| Worf: |
"Bridge to all personnel, select a representative from your group to contact the Bridge and report on your status. Remain where you are, and stay calm. Bridge out." |
| Kristin: |
"Well that helps a lot." |
| Beverly: |
"At least I have an idea of what I'm doing here." |
| Kristin: |
"But, what about me? I mean I'm a patient in a bathing suit. That doesn't say much." |
| Beverly: |
"No it doesn't." |
| Kristin: |
"Do you have any clothes around here I could borrow? At least until I figure out where the swimming pool is?" |
| MacDuff: |
"There are over a thousand people onboard." |
| Worf: |
"I've just completed a survey of our tactical systems. We are equipped with ten phaser banks, two-hundred and fifty photon torpedoes, and a high- capacity shield grid." |
| MacDuff: |
"We're a battleship." |
| Worf: |
"Yes, it appears so." |
| Riker: |
"We should start with the most crucial areas first." |
| Ro: |
"Main Engineering, Deck Thirty-Six, I'm on my way." |
| Riker: |
"Whoa, wait a minute. We've got to coordinate our efforts here first." |
| Ro: |
"I just need to *do* something." |
| Riker: |
"Look, I feel the same way, we all do, but if anything's going to get done..." |
| Ro: |
"I know, I just...it's really an ugly feeling I don't like being so out of control." |
| Riker: |
"We're going to search the ship." |
| Worf: |
"Very well, *proceed*." |
| Riker: |
"It'd be nice if we all had names." |
| Worf: |
"As soon as the ship is operational, we must make it combat-ready." |
| Picard: |
"Well, I would recommend that before we prepare for combat we try to access the ship's logs, find out who we are, what our purpose here might be." |
| Worf: |
"Well I disagree. We must first make ourselves ready for battle. *That* is the highest priority." |
| Worf: |
"Now we are ready." |
| Picard: |
"Question is, for what?" |
| Picard: |
"We should run a full diagnostic on all command systems." |
| Worf: |
"A 'full diagnostic' would require us to take our systems offline. We would be defenseless." |
| Picard: |
"If we're going to trust *our* lives to these systems, we should be certain that they're not going to fail." |
| Worf: |
"What have you found, Doctor?" |
| Beverly: |
"Not much. The brain scans I've run are unusual, but there's no damage to the hypocampus. That suggests that we still have our long-term memories, but somehow they're being blocked." |
| Picard: |
"Is it possible to bypass these normal pathways, to get at these memories some other way?" |
| Beverly: |
"That's what I'm hoping. What I need now is to see some normal brain scans for a comparison. Is there any chance I can get the crew's medical files?" |
| Worf: |
"No, we are currently running a full diagnostic. Computer resources are limited." |
| Picard: |
"The medical records are our next priority." |
| Beverly: |
"Thank you." |
| Ro: |
"Well, that's it for the living quarters on this deck. What's next?" |
| Riker: |
"There's a large room up ahead called Ten Forward." |
| Ro: |
"Let's go." |
| Ro: |
"So if everything were back to the way it was supposed to be, what do you think you'd be doing now?" |
| Riker: |
"I'd be having more fun than searching this ship, I'd imagine." |
| Ro: |
"Fun." |
| Riker: |
"Well, with that Holodeck we just saw. I think I could conjure up an interesting program or two." |
| Ro: |
"Now that's disappointing." |
| Riker: |
"Why?" |
| Ro: |
"You don't strike me as a man who needs a Holodeck to have a good time." |
| Riker: |
"Have you found out anything that might give us some insight into what happened?" |
| Troi: |
"Not specifically, but there are two things that seem unusual. The bartender is an artificial lifeform." |
| Data: |
"Can I get you something? A beverage?" |
| Riker: |
"No, thank you." |
| Ro: |
"No, I'm fine." |
| Riker: |
"Your memories are gone as well?" |
| Data: |
"The databanks that identify who I am...are not functioning." |
| Riker: |
"You're going to mention something else?" |
| Troi: |
"I don't know if it means anything, but I seem to have an ability that the others don't. I have a very strong sense of what other people are feeling. At times, it's...almost..." |
| Riker: |
"Is something wrong?" |
| Troi: |
"No. Just for a moment, you seemed familiar." |
| Riker: |
"You remember me?" |
| Troi: |
"Not exactly, I, I mean I don't know who you are, but...there's something about you." |
| Computer: |
"Commanding Officer, Captain Jean-Luc Picard. Executive Officer, Commander Keiran MacDuff. Second Officer, Commander William Riker. Operations Officer, Lieutenant Commander Data. Chief Medical Officer, Doctor Beverly Crusher. Ship's Counselor, Lieutenant Commander Deanna Troi. Chief Engineer, Lieutenant Commander Geordi LaForge. Security Chief, Lieutenant Worf. Helm Officer, Ensign Ro Laran." |
| Picard: |
"Commander...MacDuff, have the other officers listed here report to the Bridge." |
| MacDuff: |
"Aye, sir." |
| Picard: |
"Your next priority will be to retrieve any information you can about this ship's mission. Contact the Operations Officer to assist you." |
| LaForge: |
"Aye, sir." |
| Ro: |
"He's in Ten Forward, waiting tables." |
| Worf: |
"Captain...I regret my recent behavior. I assumed an attitude of authority that was...unwarranted." |
| Picard: |
"Mister Worf, we're all doing the best we can in a difficult situation. Think nothing more of it." |
| Worf: |
"Thank you, Captain." |
| Data: |
"This vessel is called the 'Enterprise'. We are part of an organization called 'The United Federation Of Planets'." |
| Worf: |
"Our choice is clear." |
| Riker: |
"These are your quarters." |
| Troi: |
"Thanks for your help. Come in for a minute?" |
| Troi: |
"Nothing feels right. This room, this ship, most of all, this war we're fighting." |
| Riker: |
"I don't imagine war ever feels right." |
| Riker: |
"What is it?" |
| Troi: |
"That same feeling. *You* seem familiar, you're the only thing that does." |
| Riker: |
"Can you remember anything specific about us?" |
| Troi: |
"I don't know... It's, it's more like remembering an emotion, feelings that you're somehow associated with." |
| Riker: |
"I hope they're good feelings." |
| Troi: |
"Yes they are." |
| Troi: |
"This entire situation is a little bit unnerving." |
| Riker: |
"It's been a long day, we've all been through a lot." |
| Troi: |
"We certainly have." |
| Ro: |
"Hi." |
| Riker: |
"I know I didn't get the wrong room." |
| Ro: |
"I just didn't like the way my quarters were decorated. Besides, I have this funny feeling that maybe I spend most of my off hours here." |
| Riker: |
"Really." |
| Ro: |
"For all we know, you and I could be married." |
| Riker: |
"'For all we know', you and I could hate each other." |
| Ro: |
"Sort of exciting, isn't it? You just don't know?" |
| Riker: |
"We might regret this." |
| Ro: |
"Regret *what*? Aren't you being a little presumptuous?" |
| Ro: |
"Like I said, I just didn't like the way my quarters were decorated." |
| Riker: |
"Then maybe we should switch quarters." |
| Ro: |
"Maybe we should stay right here and see what happens." |
| Riker: |
"What if I snore in my sleep?" |
| Ro: |
"What makes you think you're going to *get* any sleep?" |
| Picard: |
"Tactical analysis, Mister Data." |
| Data: |
"The destroyer has minimal shields. Their disrupter capacity appears to be only two-point-one megajules." |
| Riker: |
"They're no match for the Enterprise." |
| MacDuff: |
"Well done, Captain." |
| Picard: |
"Doctor, the success of this mission would be much more *likely* if we could get our memories back." |
| LaForge: |
"You must have been one hell of a bartender." |
| LaForge: |
"Well it's too bad there aren't more of you around. We could certainly use the help." |
| Data: |
"Yes." |
| LaForge: |
"I wonder why you're the only one on board?" |
| Data: |
"I have expended considerable thought with respect to my apparent uniqueness among the crew." |
| LaForge: |
"Any conclusions?" |
| Data: |
"Several possibilities suggest themselves. I may represent an entire *race* of artificial lifeforms. If so there may be a home planet for others of my kind, a shared history and a culture of which I am not presently aware." |
| LaForge: |
"Then again, you could've been built just for this ship." |
| Data: |
"I have considered that possibility as well. It may also be the case that every starship in the Federation is equipped with an artificial lifeform such as myself." |
| LaForge: |
"Hmm. If that's true, maybe you all look alike. A standard-issue android, hard to construct, so only one allowed per vessel." |
| Data: |
"Hmm." |
| Data: |
"There is another possibility. Perhaps my origin is unique. In that case I am alone." |
| Troi: |
"I'm restless. Mind if I visit for a while?" |
| Riker: |
"Please." |
| Riker: |
"What's wrong?" |
| Troi: |
"Everything. Every time I think about this war, our mission, I feel a sense of panic like a hand is closing around my throat." |
| Riker: |
"You're never going to feel good about this war, none of us will. But we've got to complete our mission." |
| Riker: |
"I've been doing a little research. Trying to find out more about William T. Riker." |
| Troi: |
"What have you discovered?" |
| Riker: |
"He's a musician, for one thing." [Plays trombone] |
| Troi: |
"Very impressive." |
| Riker: |
"No one was more surprised than I." |
| Troi: |
"So what else has your research uncovered about William Riker?" |
| Riker: |
"Exactly medically inclined, loves to climb mountains, is from somewhere called 'Alaska', enjoys exotic food, and takes his vacations on a planet called 'Risa'." |
| Troi: |
"_Ode To Psyche_ by John Keats." |
| Riker: |
"Open it." |
| Troi: |
"'To Will. All my love, Deanna.'" |
| Riker: |
"That may explain some of the familiar feelings we have." |
| Troi: |
"I don't know what to think." |
| Ro: |
"Counselor?" |
| Troi: |
"Ensign." |
| Ro: |
"Am I interrupting anything?" |
| Riker and Troi: |
"No." |
| Troi: |
"I was just visiting, uh... We'll talk again soon, Commander." |
| Riker: |
"Of course. Thank you, Counselor." |
| Ro: |
"Bye." |
| Ro: |
"And what was all of that about?" |
| Riker: |
"Oh, we were just discussing the...situation we're all in." |
| Ro: |
"Mmm, good. Because I have a feeling that I used to be the jealous type." |
| Picard: |
"Doctor, is it absolutely necessary to see the medical files to attempt treatment?" |
| Beverly: |
"It would be *dangerous* to do without them." |
| Riker: |
"It's a risk I think we have to take." |
| MacDuff: |
"He's right, Captain. I volunteer for the procedure." |
| Beverly: |
"We're lucky we didn't lose you." |
| Beverly: |
"Do you remember anything more about yourself?" |
| MacDuff: |
"No, I'm sorry, Doctor." |
| Beverly: |
"Back to square one." |
| Picard: |
"I find myself having grave concerns about our mission." |
| MacDuff: |
"'Concerns' as, as to its success?" |
| Picard: |
"No, no, no, more fundamental doubts. Whether or not it can be *justified*." |
| MacDuff: |
"I have been asking myself the same thing. I'm sure our superiors feel their orders are justified." |
| Picard: |
"Orders we can't even *verify*." |
| MacDuff: |
"Orders we can't *ignore*." |
| Picard: |
"But I can't also ignore that we greatly outclassed the *one* enemy vessel we encountered. And every single possible shred of information which might shed some light on this situation has been conveniently eliminated! I feel...as though I have been handed a weapon, sent into a room, and told to shoot a stranger. Well I need some moral context to jusify that action." |
| Picard: |
"I'm not content simply to obey orders." |
| Picard: |
"I need to know that what I am doing is *right*." |
| MacDuff: |
"So do I. I'd feel a lot better if all the questions were answered. And if you want to abandon our mission until our memories return that's your choice, but I must ask you...is it right to risk prolonging this war? To allow the needless deaths of thousands on both sides...solely on the basis of our moral discomfort?" |
| MacDuff: |
"Memory or no, it seems clear that you and I were born for battle... more so than the others." |
| Worf: |
"I thought this as well." |
| MacDuff: |
"It's conceivable that that is the very reason why we have been assigned to this vessel." |
| MacDuff: |
"The Enterprise has science officers, medical specialists, engineers. Our captain is undoubtedly an *accomplished* diplomat. But we...we are the warriors. There are times for diplomacy, this is not one of them." |
| Worf: |
"You are concerned about the captain." |
| MacDuff: |
"I am concerned about completing our mission and ending this war...in victory." |
| MacDuff: |
"We may soon face a critical moment. The success of our mission may hang on a split-second decision. Hesitation would kill us all. I know that they're counting on us would surely die as well. We cannot let this happen. That'll be all." |
| Picard: |
"Tactical analysis, Mister Data." |
| Data: |
"The pods are equipped with fusion-generated pulse lasers and minimal shielding." |
| Riker: |
"Not much power there." |
| Data: |
"We are through the perimeter, sir." |
| Riker: |
"That was too easy." |
| Worf: |
"We have yet to encounter any battleships. They may lie ahead." |
| MacDuff: |
"Approaching Central Command." |
| Picard: |
"Mister Data, scan for defenses." |
| Data: |
"I am picking up no vessels, no additional sentry pods." |
| MacDuff: |
"Phaser banks ready, loading torpedoes." |
| Picard: |
"What are the defensive capabilities of the Central Command?" |
| Data: |
"Armaments consist of four laser cannons and thirty-nine cobalt-fusion warheads with magnetic propulsion. Defensive shield output is four-point- three-kilojules." |
| Riker: |
"One photon torpedo ought to do it." |
| Troi: |
"Data, how many people on that station?" |
| Data: |
"Fifteen-thousand, three-hundred-eleven." |
| MacDuff: |
"We're within range, Captain." |
| Picard: |
"Standby." |
| MacDuff: |
"Waiting on your orders, sir." |
| Troi: |
"Captain, this isn't right." |
| MacDuff: |
"The rest of our forces are depending on us." |
| Riker: |
"How could our mortal enemy be over one-hundred years behind us in weapons technology?" |
| MacDuff: |
"Their battleships will be on their way right now. We must attack!" |
| Picard: |
"I do not fire on defenseless people." |
| Picard: |
"Mister Worf, open a channel to the Lysians." |
| MacDuff: |
"Delay that order! There's something wrong with the captain, I'm taking command of this vessel! Fire all weapons!" |
| Picard: |
"Captain's Log, Supplemental. We are on a course to Starbase 301. Doctor Crusher has been working steadily, and has restored the memories of most of the crew." |
| Picard: |
"One photon torpedo would've ended their war." |
| Riker: |
"It almost did." |
| Riker: |
"I hope I'm not interrupting." |
| Ro and Troi: |
"No." |
| Ro: |
[To Riker] "I was hoping to run into you." |
| Troi: |
[To Riker] "Please, sit down." |
| Riker: |
"Well, I'm glad that I ran into the, the two of you. When you have no memory of who you are, or who anybody else is, you find yourself in a hairy--" |
| Ro: |
"The counselor tells me that at times like that, we might do the things that we've always wanted to do." |
| Riker: |
"She said that?" |
| Troi: |
"It's psychologically valid." |
| Ro: |
"Commander, don't worry about it. But as far as I'm concerned, you and I have shared something that we will treasure forever." |
| Riker: |
"Well, I'm a little confused." |
| Troi: |
"Well, if you're still confused tomorrow, you know where my office is." |
|
