"Deja Q" Line-by-Line!

[Admiral Shran]

[Engineering]

LAFORGE: The moon will hit its perigee in ten hours. Now, we match its trajectory, increase emitter coolant rate so we can apply continuous warp-equivalent power nine to the tractor beam. We can push it for nearly seven hours and I think that just might do it. But, there's a problem.

 

[Vanyel]

Data: The Enterprise will be dangerously close to the atmosphere.

 

[Admiral Shran]

LAFORGE: That's the problem.

 

[Vanyel]

Q: This is incredible.

 

[Leandar]

Geordi: You see something here, Q?

 

[Admiral Shran]

LAFORGE: You see something here, Q?

 

[Vanyel]

Q: I think I just hurt my back. I’m feeling pain. I don’t like it. What’s the right thing to say? “Ow”?

 

[Admiral Shran]

LAFORGE + DATA: Ow.

 

[Vanyel]

Q: OW! I can’t straighten up.

 

[Admiral Shran]

DATA: Medical assistance to Engineering.

 

[Vanyel]

LaForge: Q, I’ve got a few people down on Bre’el IV who are going to be hurt….

 

[Admiral Shran]

Q: Yes, yes, your marvellous plan will not only tear the moon to pieces but your precious ship as well.

 

[Vanyel]

LaForge: You got a better idea?

 

[Admiral Shran]

Q: I would certainly begin by examining the cause and not the symptom.

 

[Vanyel]

LaForge: We’ve already done that, Q, and there’s no way to…

 

[Admiral Shran]

Q: This is obviously the result of a large celestial object passing through at near right angles to the plane of the star system. Probably a black hole.

 

[Vanyel]

Data: Can you recommend a way to counter the effect?

 

[Admiral Shran]

Q: Simple. Change the gravitational constant of the universe.

 

[Vanyel]

LaForge: What?

 

[Admiral Shran]

Q: Change the gravitational constant of the universe, thereby altering the mass of the asteroid.
