"Face of the Enemy" Line-by-Line

[Bridge]

DATA: There is no sign of the freighter, sir. We are the only ship in the area.

 

PICARD: Ensign, verify our position.

 

McKnight: We're holding at the coordinates specified by Ensign DeSeve, Sir.

 

RIKER: Anything on long range sensors?

 

Data: Sensors indicate no other ships within three light years, sir.

 

Riker: Could this have been a hoax?

 

PICARD: It's one possibility. Mr. Worf, bring Ensign DeSeve to my ready room.

 

Worf: Aye Sir.

 

Piocards ready room:
Picard: Ensign DeSeve, you promised me a freighter with an important cargo. The only thing here is empty space. Do you have an explanation?

 

DESEVE: I don't understand.

 

Worf: Captain, he has deceived us.

 

DeSEVE: No. I was told the ship would be at these coordinates.

 

Picard: You said the message came directly from Ambassador Spock.

 

DeSEVE: Yes. Well, not exactly.

 

Picard: What does that mean?

 

DESEVE: Someone else relayed the message to me, but he said Spock spoke directly to him. I trust the man who spoke to me. He would not have lied.

 

Worf: Was he a Romulan?

 

DeSEVE: Yes. He's a member of the underground a dissident. He risks his life to work with those who want a different future for Romulus.

 

Worf: Captain, he could be leading us into a trap!

 

DESEVE: No, that is not so.
