"The Best of Both Worlds" Line-by-Line

- Start date
Hanson (on monitor): Lieutenant a few years ago, I watched a freshman cadet pass four upper classmen on the last hill of the forty kilometer run on Danula Two. The damnedest thing I ever saw. The only freshman to ever win the Academy marathon. I made it my business to get to know that young fellow. I got to know him very, very well. And I'll tell you something...I never met anyone with more drive, determination or more courage than Jean-Luc Picard. There is no way in hell that he would assist the Borg. I want that clear.
Hanson: In less than 24 hours this armada is gonna hit that Borg vessel with everything we can muster. Either they survive or we do. And as for Picard, a great man has been lost. Your Captain...My Friend. Commander Riker, I hereby promote you to the Field Commission of Captain. The Enterprise is your ship now. Congratulations. I wish the circumstances were different.
Hanson: To us all.
Screen goes blank, Riker stands somber in his first moments as Captain of The Enterprise.
On The Borg Ship, Picard lies on a Table, Drones Impant him with a Borg arm and change his skin color to completely white. We see a single tear come from Picards right eye as his humanity continues to be taken away from him.

Riker: We should also see if there's some way that we can neutralize their forcefields. We've got to let them know that we can adapt too, Mr. Worf. We're no longer just fighting the Borg, we're fighting the life experience they've stolen from Captain Picard. Now how the hell do we defeat an enemy that knows us better than we know ourselves?
