"Eye of the Needle" Line-by-Line

[Transporter Room]

Tuvok gives Telek a yellow isolinear chip.

TUVOK: These are our messages.

 

Telek: I wish you luck on your journey.

 

JANEWAY: And I thank you for your help. Energize.

 

TORRES: The signal's in the pattern buffer. Transferring to the emitter array.

 

KIM: Phase variance is out of synch again.

 

Torres: Compensating. Transport complete, Captain. He made it.

 

JANEWAY: I'll tell the crew. They can have the satisfaction of knowing that their messages have reached their families.

 

TUVOK: Captain, I did not want to mention this until after our guest had left. I checked the computers databanks for a Romulan scientist named Telek R'Mor.

 

Janeway: And?

 

TUVOK: I'm sorry to report Doctor R'Mor died in 2367.

 

Janeway: That was 4 years ago.

 

TUVOK: That is correct. Before he would have sent our messages.

 

Torres: Maybe he left a will, telling some else to transmit the messages. Or he could have given our computer chip to the Romulan government.

 

TUVOK: It is possible. Unfortunately, there is no way to know.

 

Janeway: Then let's move on. We've got a long way to go.

Baxter: I tried a new hamstring exercise. Maybe I overdid it. But my workouts are about all that stand between me and a severe case of cabin fever.

 

EMH: Lieutenant, I am the Chief Medical Officer of this ship. If you have something to say to me, please, direct the statement to me.

 

Baxter: Well, you see, I need to work out.

 

EMH: I'm not telling you not to work out. I'm suggesting you use a modicum of commonsense when you do it. If I see you in here again for an exercise related injury, I'll have to discuss the matter with your superior officer.

 

Baxter: Yes, sir.
