    Crusher: I don't know. But I don't want you to start thinking about…

    Picard: An excellent reason to escape. Do you think you've gained his confidence?

    Beverly shows Picard the sketch book.

    Picard: Indeed you have, and more. This might prove to be an advantage to us.

    Crusher: Jean-Luc, there are some things I want to tell you…in case we don't get out of this.

    Picard: Have they found us?

    In the generator chamber, Ansata rush around. An alarm is blaring. Finn, angry, rushes away.

    2 Ansata Patrol, only to get the Major Beat down from Riker and Worf.

    Meanwhile at the "brig":
    (Finn points a gun at Picard, but is shot and killed by Alexana from behind)
    Crusher: Finn! (Worf frees Picard) He's dead.

    Alexana: As a prisoner he would have been a focus for violence as his followers tried to free him. Now, he's a martyr. But the death toll might go down, at least in the short term. It's an imperfect solution for an imperfect world.

    Crusher: No more killing.
    (Slowly the boy lowers the gun and is arrested.)

    Missed a line:
    Alexana: Already another one to take his place. It never ends.

    Riker: He could have killed you. He didn't. Maybe the end begins with one boy putting down his gun.

    Bridge:
    (Dr. Crusher and Wesley hug each other.)
    Crusher: I hear I owe my rescue to you.

    EDIT: OOOPS! Fixed! :)

    Wesley: Oh, I was just part of the team. It's good to have you back. Both of you, Sir.

    Picard: Take us out of orbit, Mister Crusher. (The Crusher’s, mother and son, continue to hug) …at your convenience.

    The hug ends. Beverly takes a seat near Riker and Wesley takes the helm, The Enterprise leaves Rutia.

    It was fun to stretch out my legs again. I've been holding back so some wont get their undies in a knot.
