"The Gift" Line-by-Line

[Enterprise1981]

TORRES: This is like pulling weeds. You think you've got them all out and then

Janeway and Seven enter.

 

[hux]

SEVEN: You have neglected to remove the autonomous regeneration sequencers.

 

[Orac]

Janeway: Lieutenant Torres, Ensign Kim, you remember 7 of 9.

 

[Enterprise1981]

KIM: How could we forget?

 

[Orac]

Janeway: We can't afford to delay repairs any longer, so I've asked her to help us remove the Borg modifications. She only has a few hours before she returns to Sickbay. I suggest you put here to good use.

 

[Athena28]

TORRES: You can start with the plasma relays. They're in Jefferies tube 13.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

SEVEN: Jefferies tube thirteen alpha section twelve. We fully recall the engineering specifications of your vessel.

 

[Catarina]

Torres: Good. Can you also recall the way it looked before you turned it into a Borg circus?

 

[JanewayRulz!]

SEVEN: Yes.

 

[Orac]

Janeway: Well, now that the pleasantries are over, why don't you get to work? I want updates every hour.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

TORRES: Yes, Captain.

 

[Orac]

[Kes's quarters]

Tuvok: The flame of the lamp is fire disciplined, tamed and under control. It is the appropriate focus for the task ahead of us.

 

[Catarina]

KES: How do we begin?

 

[hux]

TUVOK: I will attempt to guide you in manipulating the flame at the subatomic level. Concentrate on the flame. Try to see past the surface, past the light, to the patterns of energy and matter.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

KES: I can see the essence of the fire.

 

[Leandar]

Tuvok: Good. Now reach out with your mind and intensify the flame.

 

[hux]

KES: I'm making it hotter, brighter.

 

[P Tom]

TUVOK: Now with your thoughts, reduce the flame.

(Kes reduces the flame.)

TUVOK: Excellent. You never demonstrated this level of control before.

 

[hux]

KES: It's as though I knew what had to be done.

 

[Enterprise1981]

TUVOK: What's wrong?
