"Relics" Line-by-Line

[Orac]

Geordi: Yeah.

 

[LeadHead]

Scotty: Forget it, I wrote it. A good engineer is always a wee bit conservative, at least on paper. Just bypass the secondary cut off valve and boost the flow. It'll work.

 

[Orac]

Geordi: OK.

 

[mattman8907]

SCOTT: If we've done our jobs properly, the engines should be coming back online about now.

 

[LeadHead]

The console lights up.

La Forge: Hey, you were right. The auxiliary tank is holding.

 

[Orac]

Scotty: Take the Bridge, Commander.

 

[LeadHead]

La Forge: Oh, no. You're the senior officer here.

 

[mattman8907]

SCOTT: I may be captain by rank, but I never wanted to be anything else but an engineer.

 

[Orac]

Geordi: Alright.

 

[retroenzo]

[Bridge]
(the Enterprise glows orange in close orbit of the star)
WORF: Shields still holding, sir, but they are down another fifteen percent.

 

[mattman8907]

PICARD: Mister Worf, can we use the phasers to open a hole in the sphere?

 

[Leandar]

Worf: No, sir. The exterior shell is composed of carbon neutronium. Our weapons would be ineffective.

 

[retroenzo]

PICARD: Mister Data, we have to find some way out of here. Begin scanning for another hatch or portal that might still be open.

 

[Orac]

Data: The interior surface area is over 10 to the 16th square kilometres. It will take 7 hours to completely scan the surface.
(The camera is shaken violently)
Data: I will endeavour to speed up the process, sir.

 

[mattman8907]

[Jenolen]

(outside the main sphere hatch, and looking at short range scan 0407.7)
SCOTT: The Enterprise ion trail leads right to this point.

 

[Orac]

Geordi: It looks like some kind of doorway.

 

[LeadHead]

Scotty: I'll bet you two bottles of Scotch that they're inside the sphere and that they went in right through that hatch.

 

[Orac]

Geordi: No bet here. The question is how?

 

[retroenzo]

SCOTT: Look at the momentum distribution of the ions. It would take an impulse engine at full reverse to put out a signature like that.

 

[Orac]

Geordi: So they didn't go in willingly. This looks like some kind of communications array.
