"Tapestry" Line-by-Line

NAUSICAAN: Human! Play dom-jot, human.

 

COREY: I think I could be persuaded to play one more game.

 

PICARD: Corey, don't play him.

 

Corey: Why?

 

PICARD: It'll cause trouble. He's a Nausicaan. They can get very ill-tempered if they lose.

 

Corey: So can I.

 

PICARD: No, Corey, listen to me. This is a big mistake. Don't play him.

 

Corey: What's gotten into you? Let's go.

 

Q: I see you've found your Nausicaan friend. You seem unimpaled so far.

 

Picard: I'm sorry to disappoint you.

 

Q: Ensign Zweller seems to be doing well.

 

Picard: He's going to lose. The Nausicaan is cheating.

 

Q: Really? I'm beginning to like these Nausicaans.

 

PICARD: If history repeats itself, Corey will figure it out later tonight, and then he'll want revenge.

 

Q: And will you help your best friend avenge this injustice?

 

PICARD: I did last time. I rigged the table so that he would win in a rematch.

 

Q: Picard, you cheated? Picard, I'm impressed.

 

Picard: It was a stupid mistake. The Nausicaan didn't take kindly to losing. Nor his friends. They were outraged. They wanted a fight. I gave them one.

 

Q: That's a beautiful story. It gets you right here, doesn't it?

 

Nausicaan 1: Ten. (the Nausicaan puts a bet down and makes his play, then laughs and pots the winner) Dom-jot. Human play dom-jot.
