Alexana: Not much, really. They first started using it two months ago. We've taken several of these off dead terrorists. Our people have looked at them Nothing they can explain.

 

[Alienesse]

RIKER: Do you mind if we take one of these with us and have our people study it?

 

[Vanyel]

Picard: I appreciate your help.

 

[Vanyel]

Alexana: Perhaps if we found ourselves in possession of some of that advanced Federation weaponry of yours it would shift the balance of power back to our favor.

 

[Alienesse]

PICARD: Of course you know that is out of the question.

 

[Vanyel]

Alexana: Yes, of course.

 

[Alienesse]

PICARD: I would like to leave Commander Riker to assist in your search for Doctor Crusher.

 

[Vanyel]

Alexana: If you like.

 

[Alienesse]

[Vanyel]

Crusher: Who told you that?

 

[BlueStuff]

FINN: I heard. Now you'll help me, just like you helped them.
