"Dark Frontier" Line-by-Line

[kathrynjaneway]

Janeway: Tom, translate?

 

[LeadHead]

Paris: Fort Knox, the largest repository of gold bullion in Earths history. Over 59 metric tons worth over 9 trillion US Dollars.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

JANEWAY: Keep going.

 

[LeadHead]

Paris: Well, when the New World Economy took shape in the late 22nd Century and money went the way of the dinosaur, Fort Knox was turned into a museum.

 

[CoveTom]

JANEWAY: And no one ever managed to break into that facility, right?

 

[Leandar]

Tom: Well, a couple of Ferengi tried about ten years ago, but other than that, it's considered impenetrable.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

CHAKOTAY: Are you planning a heist?

 

[kathrynjaneway]

Janeway: As a matter of fact. Except we're not chasing gold. We're going to steal a transwarp coil. Think it might come in handy?

 

[JanewayRulz!]

TORRES: If I could equip our engines with even one coil we could shave about twenty years off this trip.

 

[LeadHead]

Tuvok: Do you believe the Borg sphere is damaged enough for us to penetrate its defenses?

 

[kathrynjaneway]

Janeway: Long enough to take what we want and get out in one piece, but we'd have to plan this operation down to the millisecond. There would be no margin for error. As I see it, we plan an intercept course that won't attract their attention, then create a diversion to keep them occupied so we can send in an away team to obtain the technology.

 

[Leandar]

Chakotay: I'd like to see the data on that Sphere. We might be able to re-create parts of it on the holodeck, run a few tactical simulations.

 

[kathrynjaneway]

Janeway: It's all yours.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

TORRES: We need to mask our warp signature. I've got a few Maquis tricks up my sleeve. They're not exactly Starfleet-approved, but.

 

[CoveTom]

JANEWAY: This is no time for protocol. Get started. The sphere is three days away by maximum warp. Set a course. Chakotay, I want an outline for our heist by tomorrow morning. We've proven ourselves against the Borg once before, twice before, but we're always the ones under attack. I think it's time to do a little assimilating of our own, huh? Dismissed.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

(Briefing room)

JANEWAY: I was hoping you'd be a little more vocal. Any thoughts?

 

[Brian]

^ (Ready Room, actually)

SEVEN: Your plan is ambitious. There are many variables, but it can succeed.

 

[LeadHead]

Janeway: I'd like to narrow that list of variables. I was hoping your parents might provide us with a few insights. I've been looking over the records of the U.S.S. Raven, your parents kept extensive field notes, detailed journals. There are over 9 thousand log entries alone.

 

[Brian]

SEVEN: The information is irrelevant.

 

[LeadHead]

Janeway: On the contrary Seven, they spent their careers studying the Borg. They tracked a cube at close range for what, two years?
