"Living Witness" Line-by-line

[May 20]

QUARREN: I've entered the specifications that you gave me.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

EMH: Let's give it a try. (A tool materializes.) Hmm. Close enough. This diagnostic tool should help me get past the initial encryption sequences. Too bad we can't re-create B'Elanna Torres.

 

[Catarina]

QUARREN: Torres. The chief transporter operator.

 

[mattman8907]

EMH: Chief Engineer. You might want to make the correction in your history books.

 

[May 20]

QUARREN: What was she like, Torres? I suppose we've gotten her personality wrong too.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

EMH: Starting to believe me, are you?

 

[Catarina]

QUARREN: Well, let's just say I'm trying to keep an open mind.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

EMH: B'Elanna Torres. Intelligent, beautiful and with a chip on her shoulder the size of the Horsehead Nebula. She also had a kind of vulnerability that made her quite endearing.

(Aside, Roxann was on maternity leave at this time.)

 

[Catarina]

EMH: B'Elanna Torres. Intelligent, beautiful and with a chip on her shoulder the size of the Horsehead Nebula. She also had a kind of vulnerability that made her quite endearing.

*I loved the way Picardo delivers these lines.

 

[Catarina]

QUARREN: You miss her, and the others.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

EMH: From my perspective, I saw them all only a few days ago. But in fact, it's been centuries, and I'll never see them again. Did they ever reach home? I wonder.

 

[Catarina]

QUARREN: I've always wondered that too, from as far back as I can remember.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

EMH: Really?

 

[Catarina]

QUARREN: Ever since I was a small child, the first time I heard the name Voyager, it conjured up my imagination.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

EMH: Even though we were the bad guys?

 

[Catarina]

QUARREN: That didn't matter. I was too young to understand the implications. The fact you were so far from home, traveling across the stars. Ah, I found it all very heroic. I suppose Voyager is what made me fall in love with history.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

EMH: If it means anything to you, you would have made a fine member of our crew.
(Boom! The building shakes.)
EMH: I hope that's part of the simulation.

 

[Catarina]

QUARREN: No, it isn't.
(The sound of breaking glass, and loud voices.)

 

[JanewayRulz!]

[Museum]

(A group of young Vaskans are trashing the museum.)
MOB: Everything goes! The days of lies are over! Destroy it all!

 

[May 20]

QUARREN: No! Stop this!
