"Peak Performance" Line-by-Line

[Vanyel]

Data: Why Doctor? It is done. And perhaps just as well. This has indicated that I am damaged in some fashion. I must find the malfunction.

 

[Brian]

(Hathaway engineering)

RIKER: The simulation begins in one hour.

 

[Leandar]

Geordi: You'll have warp drive Captain, though it may not be what you expect.

 

[Vanyel]

Riker: I believe that deserves some kind of explanation.

 

[Leandar]

Geordi: We'll have warp one for...

 

[CoveTom]

WESLEY: ...just under two seconds.

 

[Leandar]

Riker: That's not long enough for an escape, but used as a surprise it may give a strategic advantage.

 

[Vanyel]

LaForge: Sir, all of this is theoretical.

 

[CoveTom]

RIKER: And if your theory fails to pay off?

 

[Leandar]

Geordi: Ever driven a Grenthemen Water Hopper?

 

[CoveTom]

RIKER: Yes.

 

[Vanyel]

LaForge: Have you ever popped the clutch?

 

[Leandar]

Riker: Are you saying we'll stall the Hathaway?

 

[Vanyel]

Wesley: And the Enterprise will waltz right over and pulverize us.

 

[Leandar]

(Enterprise ready room)

Picard: Let me try to understand. You're saying that Commander Data is suffering from a profound loss of confidence, and that you believe that only I can restore the balance?

 

[Vanyel]

Troi: Yes, Sir.

 

[Leandar]

Pulaski: Both Deanna and I have tried, but we're not getting through to him.

 

[Vanyel]

Picard: Don't you think you both might be over reacting? Data is not capable of the emotions which you're assigning him.

 

[Leandar]

Pulaski? The effects are the same, whether they're caused by human emotions or android algorithms. Data's not on the Bridge, and I don't think Data's going to be on the Bridge until we find some way to address his problem.

 

[Vanyel]

Picard: I'm less than 1 hour away from a battle simulation and I have to hand hold an android.
