"Timeless" Line-by-Line

[JanewayRulz!]

KIM: Computer, restart simulation at time index ...

 

[Athena28]

PARIS: Computer, belay that order. It's no use, Harry.

 

[Enterprise1981]

KIM: We can't just give up.

 

[LeadHead]

Paris: 23 simulations, 23 catastrophes! This is no sensor glitch. We've got to tell them.

 

[Enterprise1981]

[2375 Engineering]

TORRES: That can't be right! We tested this engine molecule by molecule.

 

[LeadHead]

Paris: I'm sorry, B'Elanna.

 

[Athena28]

SEVEN: I wish to examine the results of the simulation.

 

[Enterprise1981]

PARIS: Holodeck Two. Run them for yourself. That is, if you don't mind being vaporized a few dozen times.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

CHAKOTAY: I looked at their findings, Captain. If we try to take that flight in the morning we'll be in escape pods by afternoon.

 

[Enterprise1981]

TUVOK: It would appear we have no choice but to cancel it.

 

[LeadHead]

Paris: Or.... we could try it Harry's way.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

JANEWAY: Ensign?

 

[LeadHead]

Kim: I've got an idea. It's tricky, but I think it could work. The trouble begins about 17 seconds into the flight. The phase variance kicks in and the slipstream becomes unstable. What we need is someone in a shuttle to ride the rapids ahead of Voyager.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

TORRES: Yes, they could map the threshold of the Slipstream as it's forming and send the phase corrections back to us. That is a great idea, Harry.

 

[Enterprise1981]

KIM: Now, here's the tricky part. The shuttle will only be a couple of seconds ahead of Voyager. That doesn't give auto-navigation much time to compensate.

 

[LeadHead]

Janeway: Tom?

 

[JanewayRulz!]

PARIS: Couple of seconds?

 

[Orac]

Kim: We can do this, Captain! Put me on that shuttle. I'll get Voyager through the Slipstream. What choice do we have? Take the drive offline? Months of work for nothing?

 

[LeadHead]

Tuvok: We built a highly experimental piece of technology. There were bound to be setbacks.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

KIM: The benamite crystals at the heart of this engine have already started to decay. It could take years to synthesize more. I don't know about the rest of you, but I didn't do all this work just to be stopped by a point four two phase variance. No offense, Captain.
