Observer Effect Line-by-Line

ARCHER: It's been so long since we had physical form, we weren't able to distinguish sleep from sedation.

 

T'POL: We'll remember next time.

 

T'POL: We're here to observe. We can't interfere.

 

PHLOX: You're interfering with me!

 

T'POL: Our subjects are human. You're Denobulan. You were inhabited a few hours ago. An intriguing experience.

 

PHLOX: I have no recollection of that.

 

PHLOX: You're going to adjust mine again? So I won't remember a word of this encounter.

 

T'POL: Or what you observed in the Decon Chamber.

 

ARCHER: We could.

 

T'POL: But we won't. Thank you for your help, Doctor.

 

PHLOX: No wonder you erase memories. Your behavior is appalling.

Word.

 

[Corridor]

ARCHER: According to what I read on the Doctor's medical PADD, he's learned how to stop the infection.

 

T'POL: I've seen seven other species develop the radiation cure. But never in time.

 

ARCHER: Did we make first contact with any of them?

 

T'POL: Of course not. Expending resources to attempt an impossible task is not a sign of intelligence. The Captain and Science Officer have decisions to make. We need to return to our original hosts.

 

[Situation room]

PHLOX: For the radiation to destroy the virus without killing the patient, it must be precisely focused. The emitters in the Decon Chamber aren't suitable, but the bio-scanner in Sickbay is.

 

T'POL: To move them from Decon to Sickbay, we'll need to expand the quarantined area.
