"Parallels" Line-by-Line

WORF: He was my son in another reality.

 

[Bridge]

WESLEY: I've used a differential pulse to analyze over ten million quantum states within the fissure, but I still haven't found one with your signature. This may take some time, sir.

 

DATA: Captain, a Bajoran ship is approaching.

 

RIKER: Red Alert.

 

WORF: The Bajorans?

 

TROI: Ever since the Bajorans overpowered the Cardassian Empire, they've become more and more aggressive.

 

RIKER: Yesterday they destroyed one of our subspace telescopes because they thought we were using it to spy on them.

 

WESLEY: They're charging their weapons, sir.

 

WORF: Shields!

 

RIKER: Return fire.

 

Wesley: They've damaged our power systems, sir. It's caused an energy surge within the subspace pulse. The quantum fissure is beginning to destabilise.

 

RIKER: Can we disengage the pulse?

 

WESLEY: Too late, sir.
(the fissure goes rainbow, then more Enterprises pop into this existence)

 

Riker: What the hell is happening?

 

DATA: The barriers between quantum realties are breaking down. Other realties are emerging into our own.
('and thick and fast they came at last, and more, and more, and more')

 

Wesley : The Bajoran ship is disengaging, Sir.

 

Data: The rate of quantum incursions is increasing exponentially. At this rate, the sector will be completely filled with Enterprises within three days.

 

WESLEY: Captain, we're receiving two hundred eighty five thousand hails.

 

Riker: I wish I knew what to tell them. Mister Data, can we stop these incursions?

 

DATA: Perhaps, if we can find the ship which that Commander Worf's quantum signature.
