"Chain of Command" Line-by-Line!

JELLICO: Schedule four battle drills, one for each shift. Run a series of simulated attacks from a Cardassian squadron. I want you to conduct the exercises personally, Will. Get it done. Oh, and get that fish out of the ready room. Data, you're with me.

(To LaForge)
Power transfer levels need to be upgraded by 20%. The efficiency of your warp coils is also unsatisfactory.
 
Jellico: I'm not interested in the specs Geordi. The efficiency needs to raised by at least 15%.
 
Data (Kissing ass): That is an attainable goal. But it will require realigning the warp coil and taking the secondary distribution grid offline.
 
LaForge: If we take this grid offline we'll have to shut down exobiology, the astrophysics lab and geological research.
 
DATA: I believe that is also an attainable goal. If we utilize the entire Engineering department, there should be sufficient manpower available to complete the task.
 
LaForge: True if everybody works around the clock for the next 2 days.
 
JELLICO: Then you'd better get to it, Geordi. It looks like you have some work to do. Data.

[Ready room]

(Jellico is arranging a sculpture or something when the doorbell rings.)

JELLICO: Yes?
 
JELLICO: Deanna, come in, come in!

there are some child's drawings on his desk

JELLICO: The latest masterpieces from my son. It's an elephant. I think.
 
TROI: I'd be happy to. But first, I'd like to talk about how the change in command is affecting the crew.
