"The Catwalk" Line-by-Line

Phlox: They're immune to radiolytic isotopes. The storm was never any threat to them.

 

Trip: Funny, you didn't mention that.

 

Tagrim: We were in danger. Our ship is less durable than yours. We would've been destroyed by the storm.

 

ARCHER: Who are they? What are they doing here?

 

Tagrim: Captain, I assure you, we don't know these men.

 

ARCHER: They just happened to find Enterprise in the middle of a class 5 neutronic storm? Where three members of their own species just happened to be taking refuge?

 

T'Pol: We're more than 20 light years from your home world. It's an unlikely coincidence.

 

ARCHER: I get the feeling they must be looking for you. Answer me.

 

Guri: I told you we shouldn't have come here.

 

Tagrim: Guri.

 

RENTH: They're officers of the Takret Militia. They've been pursuing us for weeks. We thought we could evade them by hiding aboard your ship.

 

Guri: They must've detected our vessel in your launch bay.

 

ARCHER: What do they want with you?

 

Renth: We used to be members of the militia, in the lower ranks, but after a year we realised that the commanding officers were corrupt. They seize alien vessels without provocation. They murder the crews, take anything of value.

 

GURI: They're little more than criminals.

 

Tagrim: We tried to resign our commissions but they wouldn't allow it.

 

Archer: You're deserters.

 

Tagrim: We had no choice. We would've told you the truth, but we weren't sure you would help us.

 

Renth: If they find us, we'll be executed.

 

Tagrim: Captain, I apologize for the difficult position that we've put you in, but I know these men, even if they found us, I doubt they'd simply leave. They've captured ships far less impressive than Enterprise.
