"Caretaker" Line-by-Line

[BlueStuff]

PARIS: Chakotay will tell you he left Starfleet on principle, to defend his home colony from the Cardassians. I, on the other hand, was forced to resign. He considered me a mercenary, willing to fight for anyone who'd pay my bar bill. Trouble is, he was right. I have no problem helping you track down my friends in the Maquis, Captain. All I need to know from you is what's in it for me.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

JANEWAY: You help us find that ship, we help you at your next outmeet review.

 

[BlueStuff]

PARIS: Ah-ha.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

JANEWAY: Officially, you'd be a Starfleet observer during the mission.

 

[BlueStuff]

PARIS: Observer? Oh hell, I'm the best pilot you could have.

 

[Enterprise1981]

JANEWAY: You'll be an observer. When it's over, you're cut loose.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

PARIS: The story of my life.

 

[Enterprise1981]

[Shuttlecraft]

(Approaching Deep Space Nine. It is piloted by a black-haired woman.)

PARIS: Stadi, you're changing my mind about Betazoids.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

STADI: Good.

 

[BlueStuff]

PARIS: Oh, that wasn't a compliment. Until today I always considered your people warm and sensual.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

STADI: I can be warm and sensual.

 

[Enterprise1981]

PARIS: Just not to me.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

STADI: Do you always fly at women at warp speed, Mister Paris?

 

[Enterprise1981]

PARIS: Only when they're in visual range.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

STADI: That's our ship. That's Voyager.


(It is docked at an upper pylon at DS9.)


STADI: Intrepid class. Sustainable cruise velocity of warp factor nine point nine seven five. Fifteen decks. Crew complement of one hundred and forty one. Bio-neural circuitry.

 

[Enterprise1981]

PARIS: Bio-neural?

 

[BlueStuff]

STADI: Some of the traditional circuitry has been replaced by gel packs that contain bio-neural cells. They organise information more efficiently, speed up response time.
(The shuttlecraft flies past Voyager.)

 

[JanewayRulz!]

[Quark's, Deep Space Nine]

(Morn is in his usual seat.)

QUARK: If I may say so, it's been my special pleasure to see many new officers like yourself come through these portals. Your parents must be very proud, my boy. You know, on an occasion like this

 

[LeadHead]

Harry Kim: I'm really not interested.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

QUARK: Interested?

(Gotta go. Later, dudes!)
