First Contact Line-by-Line

[Vulcan Princess]

Riker: I don't think you're a saint, Doc, but you did have a vision. ...And now we're sitting in it.

 

[LeadHead]

Cochrane: You want to know what my vision is? Dollar signs. Money! I didn't build this ship to usher in a new era for humanity. You think I want to go to the stars? I don't even like to fly!! I take TRAINS! I built this ship so that I could retire to some tropical island, filled wit.... naked women. THAT'S Zephram Cochrane! THAT'S his vision! This other guy you talk about, this historical figure, I never met him.

Riker: Someone once said, "Don't try to be a great man. Just be a man. Let history make its own judgement."

 

[Vulcan Princess]

Cochrane: Rhetorical nonsense. Who said that?

 

[sbk1234]

Riker: You did. About ten years from now.

 

[Captain Mike]

Riker: You did. About ten years from now.

^finishing^
RIKER: You have 58 minutes Doc,..You better get on that checklist.

DANIELS: They're on the move again, the Borg just overran three of our defense checkpoints. They've taken over decks five and six, they've adapted to every one of our modulations. It's like we are shooting blanks.

 

[Leandar]

Picard: We'll have to work on finding another way to modify our weapons so they'll be more effective. In the meantime, tell your men to stand their ground.

 

[JamesSmith]

Picard: We'll have to work on finding another way to modify our weapons so they'll be more effective. In the meantime, tell your men to stand their ground.

DANIELS: Sir?

 

[LeadHead]

Picard: Fight Hand to Hand if they have to!

 

[Jeyl]

Daniels" Aye, sir.....

 

[Leandar]

Worf: Wait! Captain, our weapons are useless. We must activate the autodestruct sequence and use the escape pods to evacuate the ship.

 

[LeadHead]

Picard: NO!

 

[Vulcan Princess]

Crusher: Jean-Luc, if we destroy the ship we destroy the Borg.

 

[LeadHead]

Picard: We're going to stay and fight.

 

[Vulcan Princess]

Worf: Sir, we have lost the Enterprise. We should not sacrifice...

 

[LeadHead]

Picard: We have NOT lost the Enterprise Mister Worf. We are Not going to lose the Enterprise. Not to the Borg, not while I'm in Command. You have your orders.

 

[Vulcan Princess]

Worf: I must object to this course of action.

 

[LeadHead]

Picard: Your objection is noted.

 

[Vulcan Princess]

Worf: With all due respect, sir, ...I believe you are allowing your personal experience with the Borg to influence your judgment.

 

[Brian]

PICARD: You're afraid. You want to destroy the ship and run away. You coward.
