"Counterpoint" Line-by-Line

[LeadHead]

Kir: I have some data on its composition.

 

[Saquist]

Janeway: See what you can do. In the mean time we'll set a course for Turat's planet, Try to track him down.

Later: Briefing Room: A pacing Kashyk

Janeway: Nervous?

 

[LeadHead]

Kashyk: Lets just say I'm not used to other people deciding my fate.

 

[Adm_Hawthorne]

Janeway: Until today, you were part of a government responsible for persecuting thousands of innocent people. Why the sudden change of heart?

 

[LeadHead]

Kashyk: There's nothing sudden about it. I've been looking for a way to escape for years. Voyager was the perfect opportunity.

 

[Adm_Hawthorne]

Janeway: How so?

 

[LeadHead]

Kashyk: Well, what are you suggesting? I ask a Brenari vessel for assistance? They'd throw me out an airlock. Besides you're something of a Humanitarian.

 

[Adm_Hawthorne]

Janeway: I certainly don't grant asylum to every person I meet. Especially ones who ransack my ship and terrorize my crew. You're asking me to believe you're someone else, and that's a leap of faith I'm not ready to make.

 

[Saquist]

Kashyk: You're turning me away...

 

[Adm_Hawthorne]

Janeway: No. *pause* No, I'm going to give you safe passage to the wormhole in return for your help in getting us there, but I'm also imposing some restrictions. You'll have your own quarters but limited access to Voyager's systems and your whereabouts will be monitored at all times.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

KASHYK: I'm used to being surrounded by armed guards. Makes me feel secure.

 

[Saquist]

Janeway: Only this time they answer to me. Consider it a reminder that Voyager is my ship.

 

[LeadHead]

Kashyk: I don't think anyone could doubt that.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

JANEWAY:Captain's log, supplemental. It's taken us nearly two days but we've managed to locate Torat, the man who's supposedly an expert on wormholes. Unfortunately, he seems reluctant to share his expertise.

 

[LeadHead]

Paris: He's trying to evade us.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

JANEWAY: Hail him again.

 

[crohnie]

CHAKOTAY: Mister Torat doesn't seem too trusting. Maybe he's been through one inspection too many.

 

[Adm_Hawthorne]

Tuvok: No response. He's deactivated his communication system.

 

[LeadHead]

Kim: I think I can tap into his computer, override the lockout.

 

[Adm_Hawthorne]

Janeway: Do it.
