"Scorpion" Line-by-Line

JANEWAY: In the words of Jean-Luc Picard. 'In their Collective state, the Borg are utterly without mercy, driven by one will alone: the will to conquer. They are beyond redemption, beyond reason.' And then there's Captain Amasov of the Endeavour. 'It is my opinion that the Borg are as close to pure evil as any race we've ever encountered.' What's so funny?
 
Chakotay: Just now, when you were reading his log, you were using his inflections.
 
CHAKOTAY: It's nothing to be ashamed about, echoing the Greats. Ensign Hickman in Astrophysics does a passable Janeway.
 
Janeway: If we manage to survive the next few days, I'm going to have a little chat with Ensign Hickman. Imitating the Captain, huh? Surely that violates some kind of Starfleet protocol. This day was inevitable. we all knew it. and we've all tried to prepare ourselves for the challenge ahead. But at what point is the risk too great? At what point do we come about and retreat to friendly territory? Could the crew accept living out the rest of their lives in the Delta Quadrant? I keep looking to all these Captains, my comrades in arms. But the truth is. I'm alone.
 
Chakotay: If that moment comes, we'll face it together. And we'll make the right decision. You're not alone Kathryn.
 
Janeway: Three years ago I didn't even know your name. Today I can't imagine a day without you.
