"Deja Q" Line-by-Line!

[HarryM]

Q: Q!

 

[Enterprise1981]

Q2: Sacrificing yourself for these humans? Do I detect a little selfless act?

 

[Athena28]

Q: You flatter me. I was only trying to put a quick end to a miserable existence.

 

[Enterprise1981]

Q2: What a dreadful color.

 

[Vanyel]

Q: Yeah. What are you doing here?

 

[Athena28]

Q2: I've been keeping track of you.

 

[Vanyel]

Q: I always thought you were in my corner.

 

[LeadHead]

Q2: Nah, actually I was the one who got you kicked out. You know, you're incorrigible Q. You're a lost cause. I can't go to a single Solar system without having to apologize for you and I'm tired of it!

 

[Vanyel]

Q: I’m not the one who misplaced the entire Deltived asteroid belt.

 

[Enterprise1981]

Q2: Hey, this isn't about me. I've got better places to be. But somebody had to keep an eye on you to make sure you still didn't find a way to cause trouble. Even as a member of this limited species.

 

[Vanyel]

Q: Well I…I hope I’ve been entertaining to you.

 

[Athena28]

Q2: Barely. But I find these humans rather interesting. I'm beginning to understand what you see in them. After all the things that you've done, they're still intent on keeping you safe.

 

[Vanyel]

Q: A genetic weakness of the race.

 

[LeadHead]

Q2: And they're still at it! They just tried to... Beam you up, back whatever it is they call it.

 

[Vanyel]

Q: Really?

 

[Athena28]

Q2: I stopped them.

 

[Vanyel]

Q: Well if the Calamarains hurry up and finish me off we can get you back on your way.

 

[Athena28]

Q2: Afraid I had to put them on hold too. You see, there's still this matter of the selfless act. You and I both know that the Calamarain would have eventually destroyed the Enterprise to get to you. And that's really why you left, right?

 

[Vanyel]

Q: It was a teeny bit selfless, wasn’t it?

 

[Athena28]

Q2: And there's my problem. See, I can't back to the Continuum and tell them you committed a selfless act just before the end. If I do there's going to be questions and explanations for centuries.
