"In The Pale Moonlight" Line-by-Line

[LeadHead]

Sisko's Quarters...

Sisko: At 0800 hours, station time, the Romulan Empire formally declared war against the Dominion. They have already struck fifteen bases along the Cardassian border.
So, this is a huge victory for the good guys. This may even be the turning point of the entire war. There's even a 'Welcome to the Fight' party tonight in the wardroom. So I lied, I cheated, I bribed men to cover the crimes of other men. I am an accessory to murder. But most damning thing of all, I think I can live with it. And if I had to do it all over again, I would. Garak was right about one thing. A guilty conscience is a small price to pay for the safety of the Alpha Quadrant, so I will learn to live with it. Because I can live with it. I can live with it. Computer, erase that entire personal log.

 

[Admiral Shran]

Dang, I never realized how few lines were in this one. But, with so many long ones, it's not that surprising.

 

[LeadHead]

Same here, I thought it was wordier, but long lines, not more lines.

 

[Alienesse]

Congratulations to all participants!
I think DS9 has the highest ratio of wordy lines in the franchise. Those people had a lot to talk about.

 

[BlueStuff]

Well done to all! I'm curious as to whether this was the shortest round of "Line-by-Line"?

 

[LeadHead]

Not even close we had one finish in about 3 hours once.

 

[BlueStuff]

I meant in terms of number of posts, not time.

 

[LeadHead]

Ah, good question. I dunno.

 

[Enterprise1981]

^ I think I can live with it. I can live with it.

 

[Vanyel]

Well done to all! I'm curious as to whether this was the shortest round of "Line-by-Line"?

Possibly. The number of pages would suggest so; however I can't find the TAS episode we did, that could hold the record.

And well done by all.

 

[Vanyel]

Hot chocolate, please.

 

[Enterprise1981]

We don't ordinarily say please to food dispensers.

 

[Vanyel]

Well, since it’s listed as “intelligent circuitry,” why not? After all working with so much artificial intelligence can be dehumanizing, right? So why not combat that tendency with a little simple courtesy? Ah. Thank you.

 

[Enterprise1981]

For someone who just arrived, you certainly aren't shy with your opinions.

 

[Vanyel]

Have I been talking too much?

 

[Admiral Shran]

No.

 

[Vanyel]

Oh I do tend to have a bit of a motor mouth especially when I’m excited, and you don’t know how exciting it is to have gotten this assignment.

 

[Admiral Shran]

^ finishing....

Everyone in class, I mean everyone, wants the Enterprise. I mean, it would have been all right to spend some time on Reiner Six doing phase work with anti-matter. That's my specialty.

I know. That's why you got this assignment.

 

[Vanyel]

^^^ Actually there is a break, an Ensign interrupts her and hands Geordi a PADD and says:
Excuse me Lieutenant.(It's not in the transcripts but clearly heard on the DVD.)

Everyone in class, I mean everyone, wants the Enterprise. I mean it would have been alright to spend sometime on Ranous VI, do phase work with antimatter. That’s my specialty.

That’s why you got this assignment.


Next line:

I did it again. It’s just that….

 

[Admiral Shran]

^ Hmmm, I did not know that.



I know, you're excited. Look, Sonya.
