Best Riker Yell!

As we all know, Riker is one of the best yellers in the TNG cast. What are your favorite Riker yells of all time?

For me, there are two. In Chain of Command, Pt. II, I love it when he's arguing with Jellico and yells out, "I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU'D SACRIFICE CAPTAIN PICARD'S LIFE AS A NEGOTIATION TACTIC!"

Second favorite, when he confronts the fake Captain Rice in The Arsenal of Freedom, says he's a fake, then hollers, "ANSWER ME!"

OK, go nuts!

Pretty much all of Frame of Mind. :D He just yells his way through that whole episode with abandon.
 
He has some good scenes with Thomas Riker in Second Chances...

Am I mistaken in thinking he belts out "THAT'S AN ORDER LIEUTENANT" at some point?

The fear he expresses in Generations after Deanna takes the helm is one my favourites too: "REPOOOOOOOOORT?!"
 
Don't recall the title, he's alone down a planet surface, and he mournfully cries out, like a person alone on an entire planet: "Anybody!"
 
In Generations, right after they get the distress call, Riker calls for Red Alert/Battle Stations and summons Picard to the bridge. A good one! And when he shouts for a report later in the movie.
 
Heck, no one need to look much further than Generations. Riker's not angry at anyone in particular (maybe the Klingons, but they died by that point), he just feels like yelling as IF he were angry.

Which brings us to our scene: the saucer section has just detached, but is knocked into the atmosphere by the explosion of the secondary hull. Riker yells out a simple: "REPOOOORT!!!"

Frankly, it's the fiercest, most drawn out order of "report" I'd ever seen.
 
Generations is a bit of a gold mine for Riker yelling.

"RED ALERT! ALL HANDS TO BATTLE STATIONS, CAPTAIN PICARD TO THE BRIDGE!"

"You hear that Soran?! There's a Level 12 Shockwave coming in, WE"VE GOTTA GET OUTTA HERE!!!!!!"
 
Don't recall the title, he's alone down a planet surface, and he mournfully cries out, like a person alone on an entire planet: "Anybody!"

That's from The Last Outpost, the ep that introduced the Ferengi. Yep, good yell there! -- RR

I believe he gives another yell (of pain or pleasure?:evil:) later in the same episode when he is knocked unconscious by the Ferengi whips...
 
"DEANNA, TAKE THE HELM!"

...I bet he wished he'd whispered that one...

Women drivers. Even in the 24th century they're a liability ;)

I have to add to the Generations love. Just because there's no particular reason to yell other than "I'm in charge and I have a beard, obey me."

I can't remember if it was shouted or even half shouted, but "I don't need your fantasy women!" to Q during his powers returning party. Though that only stands out in my mind as Q transfers the women to Worf without a single complaint.
 
From the oil slick episode where Tasha bites it...
"DATA! SOMETHINGS GOT ME!!!!!!!!!!!!"
