Threshold Line-by-Line

[Orac]

Harry: Nothing. I can't find him. He's gone.

Later:

Harry: I've done 3 full sensor sweeps. No sign of the shuttle within 5 parsecs.

 

[Soaraway]

Janeway: Tuvok, could the shuttle have been destroyed?

 

[Orac]

Tuvock: I don't believe so. Sensors indicate that he did cross the warp threshold.

 

[Oddish]

SUFFERING HARRY KIM: If that's true, then he could be anywhere in the universe.

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

JANEWAY OF THE LONG BROWN HAIR: We'll just have to keep searching our small corner. Run a multispectral sweep. I want to see if--

 

[Orac]

Tuvock: Captain, there's a quantum surge off the port bow. Something is coming out of subspace.

 

[Oddish]

(The shuttlecraft streaks into normal space)

THE AMAZING CAPTAIN JANEWAY: "Janeway to Paris."

 

[Orac]

Ensign Kim the Unremarkable: He's alive, but his life signs are weak.

 

[Oddish]

THE SENSATIONAL CAPTAIN JANEWAY: Bridge to Transporter room two. Beam Mister Paris directly to Sickbay. Commander, bring the shuttle aboard. I'll be in Sickbay.

 

[Orac]

Captain's Log: Aye, Captain.

 

[Oddish]

[Sickbay]

EMH: "His life signs are normal. A few elevated serotonin readings in the hypothalamus. From what I can tell, he's just asleep."

 

[Orac]

Captain Janeway the Magnificent: Can you wake him?

 

[Soaraway]

Emergency Medical Hologram Mark I: I don't see why not.
(The EMH bends close to Paris' ear.)
The Doctor: Wake up, Lieutenant!

 

[Oddish]

The Sanctimonious Captain Janeway: "Are you all right, Tom?"

 

[Orac]

Lt. Thomas Eugene Paris: I'm back.

 

[Oddish]

JANEWAY: "We tracked you until you crossed the threshold, then you disappeared from our sensors. Do you remember what happened?"

 

[Soaraway]

Captain Proton-wannabe Paris: Oh, yeah. I was, I was staring at the velocity indicator. It said warp ten. And then, as I watched it, I suddenly realised that I was watching myself as well. I could see the outside of the shuttle, I could see Voyager, I could see inside Voyager. I could see inside this room. For a moment, I was everywhere. I mean, everywhere, Captain. With the Kazon, back home, with the Klingons, other galaxies. It was all there. I don't know how else to explain it. It was like. Well, no, it wasn't like anything.

 

[Orac]

The Emergency Medical Hologram: Well, I'm glad you had a good time.

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

JANEWAY, IN THAT ALLURING ALTO: How did you get back to Voyager?

 

[Oddish]

THE IRREPRESSIBLE LT. PARIS: "I saw that you were looking for me, so I took the new engines offline and ended up back where I started. But, oh, it's starting to slip away. It all was so vivid, and now..."
