The Chute Line-by-Line

[Orac]

Zio: No, that's where you're wrong. He's too far gone to be your friend. All he is now is a burden.

 

[May 20]

KIM: That's not true!

 

[CaptVader]

ZIO: He eats your food. He ruined your device. He's given in to the clamp. You've got to get rid of him before he brings you down with him.

 

[May 20]

KIM: Quiet!

 

[CaptVader]

ZIO: You've got a chance to make something of your life in here, but as long as that carcass is in my hut, we'll never be able to go on to more important things.

 

[May 20]

KIM: What the hell are you talking about?

 

[Athena28]

ZIO: We've got to disseminate the manifesto. Gather our followers. Train them.

 

[May 20]

KIM: You're insane.

 

[CaptVader]

ZIO: You want my protection? You want to live under my roof? Get rid of him.

 

[Orac]

Harry: I don't need your protection!

 

[May 20]

ZIO: How long do you think you'll last against Pit and the others without me looking out for you?

(Zio offers Kim a bloodied, chipped, knife.)

ZIO: Go ahead, take it. Think of what a relief it will be not to have that responsibility, and be free of his ranting.

(Kim takes the knife.)

 

[CaptVader]

KIM: I'm not a killer.

 

[May 20]

ZIO: Do you want to survive in here? You'd better learn to be.

 

[CaptVader]

KIM: If that's what it takes to stay alive, then I'd rather die.

(He drops the knife.)

 

[Orac]

Zio: Get out now. And take him with you, or I will kill him.

[Bridge]

LIRIA [on viewscreen]: Unless you've decided to relinquish control of your vessel, Captain, I suggest that you do not proceed across our border.

 

[Athena28]

JANEWAY: We've captured the ship and crew responsible for the bombing at the Laktivia canteen.

 

[CaptVader]

LIRIA [on viewscreen]: I see.

 

[May 20]

JANEWAY: I'm prepared to trade them for the immediate and unconditional release of Lieutenant Paris and Ensign Kim.

 

[CaptVader]

LIRIA [on viewscreen]: Your crewmen have already been tried and convicted.
