Prey Line-by-Line

[Orac]

janeway: I want to buy the Doctor enough time to treat our hunter. If I gain his confidence, he might call off his friends. Good old-fashioned diplomacy could get us out of this yet.

 

[Rocky6]

CHAKOTAY: Don't count on it. From what I found in their database, diplomacy isn't a part of their lifestyle. They don't see us as equals. To them, we're simply game.

 

[May 20]

JANEWAY: It's time we convince them otherwise, or like any other cornered animal, we'll show our teeth.
(Voyager trembles.)

 

[Orac]

Tuvock: There's been a hull rupture on deck 11, section 3. Damage is minor. It appears a plasma conduit overloaded.

 

[Rocky6]

CHAKOTAY: Increase power to the structural integrity field.

 

[May 20]

TUVOK: A bulkhead has collapsed in Jefferies tube eighty four.

 

[Orac]

Chakotay: Another overload?

 

[Rocky6]

CHAKOTAY: Another overload?

 

[May 20]

KIM: Negative. The plasma network is stable. This wasn't caused by any power surge or system failure.

 

[Rocky6]

JANEWAY: Harry, Tuvok, get to deck eleven and check it out.

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

[Jefferies tube 84]

(They crawl along and open a hatch to see the end of the tube open to space, with a forcefield in place.)

KIM: This was no overload.

 

[Rocky6]

TUVOK: Indeed.

 

[Athena28]

KIM: Commander.

 

[Rocky6]

(There is some residue on the deck plating.)
TUVOK: It's a dense mixture of DNA and polyfluidic compounds. Tuvok to bridge.

 

[Kertrats47]

JANEWAY [OC]: Go ahead.

 

[Orac]

Tuvock: We may have an intruder aboard. I'm analysing what could be a sample of its blood. The readings are consistent with species 8472.

 

[May 20]

JANEWAY: Intruder alert. Bridge to Security, seal off decks ten through twelve.

 

[Orac]

Chakotay: Internal sensors aren't detecting any intruders.

 

[Kertrats47]

JANEWAY: The last time we ran into this species, it was impervious to our scanners. We'll have to track it visually.

 

[May 20]

PARIS: How did it get past our shields?
