"Time's Arrow" Line-by-Line

[Orac]

Data: I suggest we postpone our greetings for another occasion.

 

[Athena28]

PICARD: Agreed. Get us out of here.

 

[BlueStuff]

[Rented room]

LAFORGE: If we tune a phaser to the approximate frequency of triolic waves and lay down a field burst, it might respond.
(the phaser shot turns the cane head into a writhing snake's head)

 

[Athena28]

TROI: The ophidian the aliens were carrying.

 

[Orac]

(it sends off energy charges before reverting to the cane)

Riker: What the?

 

[Athena28]

LAFORGE: These look like minute distortions in the space-time continuum; like the one we saw on Devidia 2.

 

[Orac]

Riker: They were so small, and they lasted only a second.

 

[BlueStuff]

DATA: The aliens appear to be able to concentrate the distortion and direct it to a specific time and place.

 

[Athena28]

CRUSHER: Maybe they have something, a mechanism that focuses it.

 

[CoveTom]

LAFORGE: Any device like that would produce significant levels of triolic waves. Like the ones in the cavern where Data's head was found.

 

[Athena28]

DATA: I have located that cavern.

 

[BlueStuff]

(knocking on the door and frantic activity)
CARMICHAEL [OC]: Mister Pikerd! I know you're in there. Open the door!

[BlueStuff]

DATA: How now, spirit. Whither wander you?

 

[Trekker4747]

CRUSHER: [reading from a play book] Over hill, over dale, thorough bush, thorough brier...

[Picard lets Ms. Carmichael in.]

 

[BlueStuff]

TROI: Mrs. Carmichael, thank goodness you're here.

 

[Trekker4747]

PICARD: We need someone to read a part. You're just in time.

 

[BlueStuff]

CARMICHAEL: Mister Picard, I need to be talking to you.

 

[Orac]

[Trekker4747]
