Voyager has some funny and awesome lines. Like Janeway talking about coffee, and Seven's speech at the end of Scorpion. "The Borg have prevailed" Seven says this I think at the end of Scorpion-I really felt this was an awesome line. The calm yet imposing tone with an undertone of satisfaction and triumph. So what is everybody's favorite Voyager lines or quotes?
There are so many that it would be difficult to choose. Janeway's almost every line is worth gold ... This does not mean the other characters didn't get beautiful lines but Janeway's were almost always awesome. But I guess the purpose of this thread is to collect them ... so I'll give you examples with every character (and thanks to Chrissie's Transcripts site at http://www.chakoteya.net/index.html): Janeway (Renaissance Man) EMH: I'm not going to decompile? JANEWAY: You'll probably outlive us all. Chakotay (Resolutions) JANEWAY: Is that really an ancient legend? CHAKOTAY: No. But that made it easier to say. Tom (Prey) ALPHA-HIROGEN: I once tracked a silicon-based lifeform through the neutronium mantle of a collapsed star. PARIS: I once tracked a mouse through Jefferies tube thirty two. Tuvok (Learning Curve) NEELIX: I feel that my services as Morale Officer are required. TUVOK: I assure you, you are wrong. Harry (Live Fast and Prosper) TUVOK: The next time I visit the holodeck, I expect to find my programme restored to its original parameters. PARIS: I'm telling you, Tuvok, we didn't do it. KIM: I wonder how the Oracle would look in a sombrero. B'Elanna (Extreme Risk) TORRES: When I was six, my father walked out on me. When I was nineteen, I got kicked out of Starfleet. A few years later, I got separated from the Maquis. And just when I start to feel safe you tell me that all of our old friends have been slaughtered. The way I figure it, I've lost every family I've ever had. Doctor (Drone) EMH [on monitor]: Rise and shine, Lieutenant. It's oh six hundred hours. Early bird gets the gagh! Neelix (Fair Trade) NEELIX: Voyager is a wonderful place to be. People here are very fortunate. VORIK: I would concur. Seven (Demon) SEVEN: Each square kilometre of this planetoid is less appealing than the last. Kes (The Cloud) KES: If I were Captain, I'd open every crack in the universe and peek inside, just like Captain Janeway does.
This is the first quote I thought of... and the source of my "location". Paris had loads of good lines... if I wasn't half asleep right now I could remember a few. Also, this exchange is good: TURANJ: Sing or you will die. SEVEN: Then I'll die. TUVOK: Seven, you are a valued member of this crew. The logical response would be to grant his request. SEVEN: Logic is irrelevant. One day the Borg will assimilate your species despite your arrogance. When that moment arrives, remember me.
I'm not sure the writers ever intended this to be humorous, but I was always amused by "get the cheese to sickbay". Oh, and I agree with Janeway when she says that "coffee should always be too hot to drink" when served. All this nonsense about the right temperature being lower than with tea is something I don't hold with... pay attention Costa Coffee
When Tom and Harry first come on board in the pilot episode. Harry is standing stiffly at attention. Janeway: At ease Mr. Kim before you sprain something. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Also from Time and Again. The Dr. finds out the captain is missing. EMH: It seems I've found myself on the Voyage of the damned.
Ahh, you beat me to it! Another is when B'Elanna said, "The Borg wouldn't know fun if they assimilated an amusement park". Another - and I can't remember it word for word, but it went something like this: Torres: How do you know when we're having intimate relations? Seven of Nine: There isn't anyone on Deck 9, Section 12 who doesn't know when you're having intimate relations.
This one is in an exchange from Non Sequitur, can't remember the exact exchange, but basically it involved Kim "having to go to Marseilles to see Paris".
I love this line Chakotay addresses to Tuvok, when they learn Seska is a Cardassian spy: "You were working for her [Janeway]; she was working for them -- wasn't anyone on that ship working for me?"
I think the episode was "Shattered" when Voyager got hit with some kind of surge and the ship experienced different timelines. We see quick scenes from past episodes. I love Beltran saying, "This must be the day the telepathic pitcher plant put us all into comas" with a straight face.
775km separate these two French cities. -> by car: 7h16 -> by train: max: 3h40 min: 3h05 -> by plane: 1h19 -> by rowing (I'm not kidding!) : 1030km in 1,5 months and on board of Voyager; something like 5 min and still, just the time for Paris to reach the holodeck where the Marseille's programme is running! ;-)
Revulsion: 7 of 9: All of these elaborate rituals of deception. I didn't realize becoming human again would be such a challenge. Sexuality is particularly complex. As Borg we had no need for seduction, no time for single cell fertilization. We saw a species we wanted and we assimilated it. Nevertheless, I am willing to explore my humanity. Take off your clothes. KIM: Er, Seven. SEVEN: Don't be alarmed. I won't hurt you. Someone to Watch Over Me: 7 of 9: There is no one on deck nine section twelve who doesn't know when you're having intimate relations. also B'Elanna: Then study this. Borg provokes Klingon, Klingon breaks Borg nose. Call Sickbay. Tell them there's about to be a medical emergency.
"Dismissed. That's Starfleet for 'get out'." "Fun will now commence." "I didn't notice a little box on my console!" No, Mr. Kim, and you never will. "It appears we have lost our sex appeal, Captain." I love to make up lines in my head for Tuvok whenever he has to interact with Neelix. Such as "Prophesy", which I just re-watched recently. NEELIX: What a day. I never met a more ravenous group in my life. I must have served over three hundred meals. TUVOK: Mister Neelix, may I ask what you're doing here? NEELIX: We're bunkmates. TUVOK: (thinking: Like fuck we are.) There must be some mistake. NEELIX: No, there's no mistake. I gave up my quarters to a Klingon family. By the time I checked with Commander Chakotay, you were the only one who hadn't been paired up. TUVOK: (I have died and am now in Hell. That is the only logical explanation.) You should have consulted me. NEELIX: We're such close friends, I knew you wouldn't mind. TUVOK: (Perhaps if I strike quickly I can convince the captain that it was an accident.) Mister Neelix, as much as I enjoy your company, I prefer solitude in my own quarters. NEELIX: You don't really want me to go back there and tell that family to get out, do you? Good. Because I promise you we're going to have fun, Mister Vulcan. I learned some Klingon drinking songs. I'll teach them to you. (sings) 'ej HumtaH 'ej DechtaH 'Iw'ej Doq SodTah ghoSpa' Sqral bIQtiQ. TUVOK: (thinking: I was correct. This is a special Hell designed for my torment alone.) And later, after Neelix gets bizz-zay with a female Klingon: [Tuvok's quarters] (The place is a wreck.) TUVOK: (thinking: Everything in this room is to be burned immediately.) NEELIX: Oh. Don't you worry, Mister Vulcan. I'll have this place shipshape in no time at all. TUVOK: (Never mind. You live here now. I'll take your quarters.) Just go, Mister Neelix.
I've always thought of how unfortunate looking a child of Neelix and ch'Rega would have been had their encounter had turned out to be a fertile one. Talaxian and Klingon doesn't sound like a good combination to me.
Didn't they have Neelix made up to look like a Klingon in one of the Killing Game simulations, but he still had the Talaxian spots. So maybe something like that.
EMH to Seven: "Between impulse and action, there is a realm of good taste begging for your acquaintance!" EMH to EMH2: "EMH: The end. You know, you really should keep a personal log. Why bore others needlessly? " Also funny because he doesn't exactly have a spotless track record himself on these matters.
