"The Drumhead" Line-by-Line

[Gul Re'jal]

Captain's log, supplemental. Retired Admiral Norah Satie, whose investigation exposed the alien conspiracy against Starfleet Command three years ago, is arriving to assist in our inquiry.

 

[Athena28]

[Transporter room]

SATIE: Captain Picard.

 

[Enterprise1981]

PICARD: Admiral Satie. Welcome aboard the Enterprise.

 

[Orac]

Satie: Delighted to be here. I managed to acquire my former staff. My aide, Sabin Genestra, from Betazed, and my assistant, Nellen Tore, from Delb Two.

 

[Enterprise1981]

PICARD: This is my First Officer, Commander William Riker. May I show you to your quarters?

 

[JanewayRulz!]

SATIE: Captain, if Starfleet Command is so concerned with your report they brought me out of retirement, I think I should get right to work.

 

[LeadHead]

Picard: Very well. Commander Riker, will you see to the Admirals staff?

 

[Orac]

Satie: First, I'd like to inspect the damage to your engine room.

 

[Gul Re'jal]

[Engineering]

PICARD: Admiral Satie, this is Commander Data, Commander La Forge.

 

[LeadHead]

La Forge: Admiral. We still can't get in there, Captain. Radiation levels are dropping, but they're still too high to raise the isolation door.

 

[ElimGarak.93-99]

PICARD: How much longer will it be?

 

[LeadHead]

Data: At the rate the levels are dropping, we will gain entry in 49 hours, Captain.

 

[Leandar]

Geordi: Maybe the Admiral would like to see the visual log of the explosion?

 

[Enterprise1981]

SATIE: Yes.

 

[ElimGarak.93-99]

GEORDI: This was logged four days ago at 03:00 hours.

 

[Enterprise1981]

^ finishing (a picture on the monitor of the warp core, labelled sensor log playback 44765.3 03.00.59.941. Part of the core goes bang.)

GEORDI: At that point the emergency confinement field was activated and the isolation doors came down. No one was killed, but I have two people in Sickbay with radiation burns.

SATIE: Have you been able to make any assessments?

 

[LeadHead]

Data: Slow motion study of the explosion suggests that the articulation frame collapsed.

 

[Enterprise1981]

SATIE: The schematics that were stolen from the Enterprise, I believe some involved the articulation frame of the dilithium chamber.

 

[Orac]

Picard: That's one reason we tend to suspect sabotage.

 

[Athena28]

DATA: Other evidence lends credence to that theory, Captain. A review of the sensor logs indicates that every systems reading was well within normal parameters until 52 milliseconds before the explosion.
