"Encounter at Farpoint" Line-by-Line

[Ghost of Christmas Future]

Riker: Nice to meet you, Pinocchio. A joke.

 

[Gul Re'jal]

DATA: Ah. Intriguing.

 

[Leandar]

Riker: You're going to be an interesting companion, Mr. Data.

 

[Ghost of Christmas Future]

Data: This woodland pattern is quite popular, sir. Perhaps because it duplicates Earth so well. Coming here almost makes me feel human myself.

 

[Leandar]

Riker: I didn't believe these simulations could be this real.

 

[Gul Re'jal]

DATA: Much of it is real, sir. If the transporters can convert our bodies to an energy beam, then back to the original pattern again

 

[BlueStuff]

RIKER: Yes, of course. And these rocks and vegetation have much simpler patterns.

 

[Ghost of Christmas Future]

Data: Correct, sir. The rear wall.

 

[Gul Re'jal]

RIKER: I can't see it.

 

[Ghost of Christmas Future]

Data: We're right next to it.

(He throws a rock at it, and the image pixelates on impact)

 

[Gul Re'jal]

RIKER: Incredible!

 

[BlueStuff]

WESLEY [OC]: Commander Riker!
WESLEY: (at the stream) Commander Riker, isn't this great? This is one of the simpler patterns. They've got thousands more. Some you just can't believe.

 

[Ghost of Christmas Future]

Riker: Careful, the next rock is loose!

(Wesley falls in the water)

Riker: Wesley!

 

[Leandar]

(Data rushes down and pulls Wesley out with one hand, holding Wesley above his head)

Wesley: Wow!

 

[Gul Re'jal]

[Corridor]

RIKER: Mister Data has agreed to join me on the away team, Captain.

 

[BlueStuff]

PICARD: Very good, Commander.

 

[Gul Re'jal]

WESLEY: Sir, maybe I should get something to wipe this water up.

 

[BlueStuff]

PICARD: Good idea.

 

[Gul Re'jal]

[Sickbay]

WESLEY: There's a low gravity gymnasium, too. It'd be hard to get bored on this ship.

 

[BlueStuff]

CRUSHER: Good.
