Lessons Line-by-Line

[CaptVader]

[May 20]

HELM: Aye, sir.

 

[Orac]

Picard: Counsellor, could I speak with you in my Ready room? You have the Bridge, Number 1.

[Ready room]

Picard: Sit down, Counsellor. I want to talk to you about a matter of protocol. I know there are no Starfleet regulations about a Captain becoming involved with a fellow officer, but

 

[May 20]

TROI: You would like my opinion about you and Commander Daren.

 

[CaptVader]
