"Caretaker" Line-by-Line

[Kazon settlement]

(Parched red clay, cracked under the red sky. Janeway, Paris, Chakotay, Tuvok and Neelix beam down. People run to a building nearby.)

PARIS: Why would anyone want to live in a place like this?
 
NEELIX: They are.

Kazon sects control this part of the quadrant. Some have food, some have ore, some have water. They all trade and they all kill each other for it.
 
NEELIX: My friends, it's good to see you again!

(A group of Kazon pick up Neelix and carry him to the middle of the settlement. Others take the away team's weapons.)

NEELIX: I must speak with your Maje, the ever-wise Jabin!

(Neelix is put against a wall and weapons are aimed at him.)

NEELIX: Very amusing.
 
NEELIX: Very amusing. I, I enjoy a joke as much as the next man. Jabin! My old friend! Water. Water, Jabin. I have water to replace all that I borrowed. Show them, Mister Paris. Their ship has technology that makes water out of thin air!


(Jabin takes a bottle from Paris and drinks.)

(Whiskey's for drinking... water's for FIGHTING!)
 
JANEWAY: Janeway to Voyager. Energize.

(Two tanks appear. The Kazon run to them.)

JANEWAY: There's more where that came from, if you can help us.
 
^ finishing (A slight blonde girl in a doorway.)
JABIN: Why would you be interested in such worthless creatures? They live only nine years. They make poor servants. We caught her when she wandered to the surface.

JANEWAY: To the surface? You mean they live underground?
 
JABIN: The entity in space that gives them food and power also gives them sole access to the only water on this world, two miles below the surface.
