"Lower Decks" Line-by-Line!

[HarryM]

RIKER: I'm listening.

 

[Enterprise1981]

[Lavelle & Taurik's quarters]

BEN: The bet is fifty.

 

[Leandar]

Taurik: It would be illogical for the captain to deny you a promotion based on something you did when you were a cadet.

 

[Enterprise1981]

SITO: He said it shows I don't have character.

 

[HarryM]

OGAWA: What did you say?

 

[Enterprise1981]

SITO: What could I say? Maybe he's right.

 

[HarryM]

LAVELLE: Hey, you're a damn fine officer and you deserve that post as much as anyone. One thing's for sure, I won't be getting it. Not if it's up to Riker.

 

[Enterprise1981]

[Riker's quarters]

WORF: It is your decision, sir, but I am certain if you give Ensign Sito a chance to prove herself, she will not disappoint you.

 

[HarryM]

RIKER: Very well, I'll take her under consideration. Besides, I'm not convinced about Lavelle.

 

[Enterprise1981]

TROI: Really? Why?

 

[HarryM]

RIKER: He's too eager to please. He's always trying to ingratiate himself to me.

 

[Athena28]

TROI: Why assume he's doing it that to get the job?

 

[HarryM]

LAFORGE: Fifty.

 

[Enterprise1981]

RIKER: There's your fifty, and one hundred more.

 

[Athena28]

TROI: I don't know. It seems to me that you and Lavelle are a lot alike.

 

[Enterprise1981]

RIKER: What?! We're not at all alike.

 

[HarryM]

LAFORGE: You're bluffing.

 

[Enterprise1981]

[Lavelle & Taurik's quarters]

LAVELLE: You think so?

 

[HarryM]

BEN: Yes, and I'm not going to let you get away with it.

 

[Enterprise1981]

OGAWA: You know, Sam, maybe you shouldn't try so hard with Riker. It doesn't matter whether he likes you as long as he respects you.
