"Shattered" Line-by-Line

Janeway: Work on it. Chakotay and I will see about modifying the serum.

 

SEVEN: Your plan is inefficient.

 

JANEWAY: Why?

 

SEVEN: There are only two of you. If I were to assimilate you into a small Borg collective, you could then assimilate others. The work would proceed more rapidly.

 

JANEWAY: Sorry, but I like my plan better. We'll be back.

Janeway and Chakotay enter corridor

Janeway: That was an interesting experience.

Chakotay: If it makes you feel any better, you're going to develop quite a knack for dealing with the Borg.

 

JANEWAY: You mean we're going to be seeing more of them?

 

Chakotay: We'll run into them on a few occasions.

 

JANEWAY: Why do I get the feeling that's an understatement? It doesn't seem like my first command is shaping up the way I expected.

 

Chakotay: In the middle of the journey of our life, I found myself astray in a dark wood, where the straight road had been lost.

 

JANEWAY: I didn't know Dante's Inferno was on the Maquis reading list.

 

Chakotay: Actually, I borrowed your copy.

 

Janeway: My fiancée gave me that book as an engagement gift. I've never lent it to anyone.

 

CHAKOTAY: Not yet. Anyway, I agree with Dante. If you always see the road ahead of you, it's not worth the trip.

 

Janeway: A soldier and a philosopher. Your intelligence file doesn't do you justice.

DOC: I've replicated these belts to resist the effects of the temporal barriers, just like the hyposprays.

 

Janeway: I didn't realise you were programmed to be so versatile.

 

DOC: I wasn't, but when you're thrown into the deep end of the galaxy and left running for as long as I've been, it helps to develop a few extra subroutines.

 

JANEWAY: How long have you been running?

 

The Doctor: Almost 3 years, since our original doctor was killed.
