"Babel One"/"United"/"The Aenar" Line-by-Line

TUCKER: Well, just about. But my people are working triple shifts trying to finish that mud bath they wanted.
 
TUCKER: Apparently the ambassador likes a good soak in the morning. Something I don't understand. These Tellarites have warp ships, so why do we have to take them to the conference?
 
ARCHER: Babel's on the far side of Andorian space, they won't allow Tellarite ships to pass through their territory.
 
[Turbolift]

ARCHER: This trade dispute is a little more urgent. It could turn into a shooting war if the conference fails.

[Launch bay]


(A shuttlepod has just arrived, and an honour guard of MACOs join Archer and senior staff to welcome their guests aboard.)

ARCHER: You people are even uglier than I remember. Captain Jonathan Archer. Welcome aboard.
 
GRAL: Ambassador Gral. (The handshake turns into a test of strength.) I'm told this ship is the pride of Starfleet. I find it small and unimpressive.
 
Naarg: It's far too cold in here. We're expected to stay on this ship for five days?

(It's a reception for the Tellarites.)

TUCKER: So he says, 'Well, I'm not really a pilot.' Ah, you don't get it.
 
TUCKER: You know, I like these people more than I thought I would. They don't hold anything back. It's refreshing, speaking your mind for a change.
 
Archer: No. Maybe you'd like to explain it to me. Why don't you change your uniform before you stink up the place.
