"Tomorrow is Yesterday" Line-by-Line

I've already assigned them to the away team. And I'll be with you as well, Commander.

 

Of course. I appreciate any assistance you can offer. Tell me, Commander. Is serving aboard the Enterprise as extraordinary an experience as I've heard?

 

Every bit.

 

Good. Because I intend to convince Captain Picard I'm the right choice for the job.

 

Job? Which job?

 

Yours, of course. I'm sorry. I heard that you were leaving.

 

If I were, I'm sure you'll be the first to know. Poker's at seventeen hundred hours in my quarters. Deck eight.

 

Got another king in the hole, Data?

 

I am afraid I cannot answer that Wesley. And as you are a newcomer to the game, may I say it is inappropriate for you to ask. I will buy another card, Counselor.

 

No help there.

 

Fold. Again.

 

Three jacks looking back for the handsome young ensign. Pair of deuces stands. Flush, possible straight flush. Your bet, Mister Crusher.

 

I'm in for 10.

 

Call.

 

Now it's time for the long pants. Here's your 10... 100.

 

He's got the straight flush folks.

 

Not necessarily. Commander Riker may be bluffing, Wesley.

 

I don't think so. Fold.

 

So...ah...are there going to be anymore line by line threads in this line by line game?

 

I've been avoiding too much spamming, as it seems some don't like, but we have been waiting a while, so....



With three jacks? What, are you kidding? Wesley, you may get straight A's in school, but there's a lot you need to learn about poker.
