"Q Who?" Line by Line

RIKER: You brought us here, you exposed us to them, and you cost us the lives of our shipmates

 

Q: Oh, please.

 

Q: Oh. Please.

 

PICARD: Number One. Eighteen of our people have died. Please, tell us this is one of your illusions.

 

Q: Oh no. This is as real as you so called life gets. (Q disappears in a Q flash.)

 

La Forge: (over comm) This is Lieutenant La Forge we've been able to restore power to the shields.

 

LAFORGE [OC]: This is Lieutenant La Forge, Captain. We've been able to restore power to the shields.

 

Picard: Very good.

 

WORF [OC]: Captain, I have the casualty list coming on screen.

 

Picard: Cancel. We’ll deal with that later.

 

Riker: Sir, if we're going to have further dealings with the Borg now or in the future. I think we need to learn all we can about them.

 

RIKER: Sir, if we're going to have further dealings with the Borg now or in the future, I think that we should find out all we can about them.

 

Picard: Visit the ship?

 

RIKER: In my opinion, that's the only choice.

 

Picard: Assemble a minimal away team.

 

GUINAN: WHAT?!

 

Riker: Mr. Worf, transporter room 3. Data.

 

Guinan: I wouldn't go there if I were you.

 

Riker: I don’t know, Guinan, they paid us a visit, it seems only fair that we return the courtesy.

 

PICARD: Captain's log, supplemental. We have been attacked without provocation by an alien race which Guinan calls the Borg. It appears that we have neutralised their vessel. Commander Riker is leading an away team in an attempt to learn more about them.
