RIKER: As a matter of fact, it was Baran who sent me here. He told me to pretend to be friendly with you and help you organize a mutiny, so he can determine who your supporters in the crew and then eliminate them.
 
PICARD: What a tangled web we weave. I have difficulty remembering whose side I'm on. So, what have you been able to find out?
 
Number 1: When we reach the Hyralan Sector, we're supposed to rendezvous with a Klingon transport ship. I'm not sure, but I think they may be delivering another of the Romulan artefacts to us.
 
PICARD: I have been looking over the glyphs and pictograms from the Calder II artifact, and although I don't have enough data to translate all the inscriptions, the alphabet and symbology is much more consistent with early Vulcan than Romulan.
 
RIKER: Do these artifacts have some religious or cultural significance, something that would make them valuable enough to kill for?
 
PICARD: I don't know. If I could just get access to the Enterprise computer for a few moments. So, what will Baran do once he's obtained the second artifact?
 
Number 1: You're supposed to verify its authenticity, and then I'm supposed to kill you, and I take your place.
 
PICARD: Will, you always seem to be after my job. Well, as soon as Baran feels that I've outlived my usefulness, he can kill me simply by using the neural servo. So, I think we had better start planning a mutiny.

PICARD: We need a new captain and I've come to one inescapable conclusion
 
NARIK: I don't trust you, Galen. I don't think the rest of the crew does either. They're not going to follow you.
