"Sarek" Line-by-Line

[LeadHead]

Picard: Not a task that I'm looking forward too.

 

[Leandar]

Riker: I don't understand this. Everyone is protecting Sarek. His wife, Mendrossen, even you.

 

[LeadHead]

Picard: (getting angry) What would you have me do? March down there and destroy the man?

 

[Leandar]

Riker: The mission with the Legarans cannot be carried out with Sarek in this condition!

 

[LeadHead]

Picard: I know that!

 

[Leandar]

Riker (shouting): Then tell him that there is no way...!

 

[LeadHead]

Picard: DON'T YOU TELL ME WHAT TO DO!!!

 

[Leandar]

Data: Captain. Commander.

 

[LeadHead]

Picard and Riker both calm down

Picard: Of course, you're right Number One. It's a task that I will attend to.

 

[Leandar]

(Later, in Sarek's quarters)


Perrin: Captain, I don't think I understand what you're telling me. My husband is responsible for your crew assaulting one another?

 

[LeadHead]

Picard: He is very ill, Perrin.

 

[Leandar]

Perrin: Bendii Syndrome is more a folk tale than a disease. There hasn't been a true case of it in my husband's lifetime.

 

[LeadHead]

Picard: There's one now. Sakkath knows.

 

[Leandar]

Perrin: Sakkath? Sakkath knows nothing my husband didn't teach him.

 

[LeadHead]

Picard: He knows. And more than that. On this mission he's been consciously holding Sarek's mind together as well as he could.

 

[Leandar]

Perrin: That is not true!

 

[LeadHead]

Picard: I must see Sarek.

 

[Leandar]

Perrin: Captain, I know a good deal about the Vulcan mind and I know a good deal about the heart of one particular Vulcan. I am his wife, and he is fine. He does not have Bendii Syndrome, and that shall be the end of it.

 

[LeadHead]

Picard: I'm sorry.

 

[Leandar]

Perrin: Please, you must not do this to him!
