[Leandar]

Picard: What is the status of the Borg cube?

 

[Captain Mike]

DATA: It has sustained severe damage to its outer hull. I am reading fluctuations in their power grid.

 

[Leandar]

Picard: Open a channel to the fleet. This is Captain Picard of the Enterprise, I'm taking command of the fleet. Target all of your weapons onto the following coordinates. Fire at my command.

 

[LeadHead]

Data: Captain, the coordinates you have specified do not appear to be a vital system.

 

[Jeyl]

[Jeyl]

Picard: Trust me, Data.

 

[Dac]

Riker: The Fleet's responded sir, their standing by.

 

[Jeyl]

Picard:..........Fire.

- That's right Picard. Watch the Borg blow up a few more ships before you give the signal. That's right. Wait for it. I'm sure you'll treat your fellow crew members with more care. Anyways...
