"All Good Things..." Line-by-Line

Riker: All right, we'll do it the old fashioned way. Set a course for the Federation, Warp 13.
 
Picard: Will, don’t leave. We have to stay here and find out what is causing the temporal anomaly.
 
Picard: We have to. Everything depends on it. We can’t leave now. Please listen to me! (Crusher sedates him…)
 
Picard bumps into a crewmember as he returns to the present.

Crusher walks up to Ogawa's bedside.

Crusher: I'm sorry Alyssa. May I take another look? You'll have a little tenderness for a few days, but that's to be expected.

Picard enters

Jean-Luc. I'll be right back Alyssa.

Crusher walks to Picard

Alyssa lost the baby. I think it's the same phenomenon that effected Geordi. Somehow the temporal energy from the anomaly caused the fetal tissue to revert to an earlier stage of development. It's as if the unborn child began to grow younger, until finally the DNA itself began to break down.
 
Crusher: Physically, she's fine for now. But if this temporal reversion continues, I don't think any of us are going to be fine for much longer.
 
Crusher: Our cellular structures appear to be coalescing, reverting to earlier forms. In some cases, this has caused old injuries to be healed, but the effect is only temporary. Eventually it may kill all of us.
 
Confrence room.
Picard: We have to determine how wide spread this effect is. Contact Starbase 23 that’s the nearest outpost. Have then check their personnel to see if there are any signs of temporal reversion.
 
Picard: Good. When it’s done, I want you to find someway of collapsing this anomaly without making things worse. Give me a risk Analysis of whatever solution you come up with.
 
Q: It's a pretty big decision, Jean-Luc. Tinkering with an anomaly you know nothing about. Trying to collapse it.
 
Q: Maybe. On the other hand, maybe leaving it alone would be the wrong thing to do. It's a pretty big decision all right. Would it help to have a different perspective?

Q snaps his fingers, Picard finds himself standing outside on a planet

Welcome home Captain.
