Insurrection Line-by-Line

[CoveTom]

DATA: A child's specifications are never the same from one moment to the next. I am surprised that you do not... trip over your own feet.

 

[Vulcan Princess]

Artim: Sometimes I do.

 

[CoveTom]

DATA: My legs are eighty-seven point two centimeters. They were eighty-seven point two centimeters the day I was created. They will be eighty-seven point two centimeters the day I go offline. My operation depends on specifications that do not change. I cannot imagine the experience of growing up or even tripping over my own feet.

 

[Brian]

ARTIM: But you've never had adults telling you what to do all the time, or bedtimes, or having to eat food you don't like.

 

[LeadHead]

Data: I would gladly accept the requirement of a bedtime in exchange for knowing what it is like to be a child.

 

[CoveTom]

ARTIM: Do machines ever play?

 

[Vulcan Princess]

Data: Yes, I play the violin, and my chess routines are quite advanced.

 

[Rush Limborg]

Artim: --No, I mean--haven't you ever just played...for fun?

 

[LeadHead]

Data: Androids... do not have fun.

 

[Brian]

ARTIM: Look, if you want know what it's like to be a child, you need to learn to play.

 

[Leandar]

Worf: Captain!

 

[LeadHead]

Picard: Mister Worf, you need a haircut.

(Does anybody find it funny that Picard is giving that line?)

 

[Leandar]

Worf: Accelerated hair growth is often experienced by Klingons during Jak'tahla.

 

[LeadHead]

Anij: Jak'tala?

 

[Leandar]

Picard: Roughly translated, puberty, although for a Klingon that scarcely does it justice. Any severe mood swings, unusual aggressive tendencies, ...you let me know at once.

 

[LeadHead]

Worf: Yes Sir. The Ba'ku need some rest Sir. According to our scans, this is the safest area for the next few kilometers.

 

[Leandar]

Picard: Very well, we'll take an hour.

 

[Vulcan Princess]

Worf: Aye, Sir.

 

[LeadHead]

Picard: Very well, we'll take an hour.

Finishing
Have them break out some Rations.

Anij: Right beyond that ridge is where the caves begin... We can hide there for days.

 

[Rush Limborg]

Picard: By now, the So'na will have scanned this area..and know that too.
