"Tapestry" Line-by-Line

[Trekker4747]

[later in their room]

COREY: I've played a lot of dom-jot in a lot of places and I've never seen the balls roll that well for anyone!

 

[BlueStuff]

MARTA: So he was cheating?

 

[Orac]

Corey: I'll bet you that he had some sort of magnetic device in his belt. It was controlling the balls.

 

[BlueStuff]

MARTA: That's terrible.

 

[Trekker4747]

Corey: [sigh] We've got to get even.

 

[BlueStuff]

MARTA: What did you have in mind?

 

[Trekker4747]

Corey: Well, we could do to him what he did to us: Cheat. Only this time we rig the table so his device will backfire on him.

 

[BlueStuff]

PICARD: Corey, that won't solve anything.

 

[Ziz]

Q: That's a beautiful story. [Q puts his fist on his heart.] It gets you right here, doesn't it?

Fixed. Without the visual, the line doesn't work.

Moving on...

COREY: It'll teach him that he can't go round cheating Starfleet officers.

 

[BlueStuff]

PICARD: All it'll do is provoke him. And provoking a Nausicaan is not a good idea.

 

[Trekker4747]

Fixed. Without the visual, the line doesn't work.

Which is why I try and to add some visuals from time-to-time.

COREY: I can handle him.

 

[BlueStuff]

PICARD: What if he's not alone? What if he brings some of his Nausicaan friends with him?

 

[Trekker4747]

Corey: Well, then I guess that's when I'll have to depend on my friends to help me out.

 

[BlueStuff]

PICARD: Corey, there's got to be a better way to handle this.

 

[Trekker4747]

COREY: When did you start backing away from a good fight?

 

[BlueStuff]

PICARD: Look Corey, we're not cadets anymore. We're officers. We should start to set a higher standard for ourselves.

 

[Orac]

Marta: It was a good idea,, but let's just forget it, okay?
(Corey leaves)
Marta: He'll get over it.

 

[Trekker4747]

PICARD: I hope so.

[Marta gives Picard a long look, Picard notices]

PICARD: What?

 

[BlueStuff]

MARTA: Nothing. It's just you'd usually be the one plotting revenge.

 

[Orac]

Picard: Yes, that would be more in character, wouldn't it?
