Picard: Fire the torpedo in five seconds, Mark.
Riker: I'm Will.
Picard: Yes I know. Mark.
Riker: I'm
Will.
Picard: Yes, You Will, Me Jean Luc. Now carry out my order!
Riker: What order - wait five seconds, or fire the torpedo?
Picard: Will you fire the torpedo!
Riker: Yes, I, Will, shall fire the torpedo; and you, Jean Luc, will give the order! I don't know why you want to waste time talking about this Mark person.
Picard: MARK! It means you count to five! It's a point in time, like a mark twain is a point in space!
Riker: No, Mark Twain is a WRITER. A WRITER.
Picard: COUNT TO FIVE AND FIRE THE TORPEDO! MARK! MARK! MARK!
Riker: Count to five and fire the torpedo like Mark Twain? Fine! One Mississippi, two Mississippi -
Picard: Mark! Mark! Mark!
Riker: LOOK MY NAME ISN'T
MARK! IT'S WILL, BILL, OR
RIKER - BUT NEVER BILLY BOY, AND SURE AS SHAKAREE NOT MARK!
Picard: Will you not fire the torpedo?
Riker: MAKE UP YOUR DAMN MIND! FINE, DO IT YOURSELF!
Picard: VERY WELL! I SHALL BEAR THE ONUS MYSELF!
Riker: LOOK, NOBODY WANTS YOU BEARING YOUR ONUS ON THE BRIDGE!!! ADMIRAL NECHEYEV WAS VERY EXPLICIT ABOUT THAT THE LAST TIME!
Picard: Stop messing around and dam a torpedo! Mark!
Riker: While you fart around looking for someone named Mark, the Romulan ship may get away!
Picard: I THINK THAT WARBIRD WILL! STRIKE HER!
Riker: WILL
RIKER! Look, I will give
you a five second countdown, and you fire the damned torpedoes, OK??
Picard: Technically, it's DAM the torpedoes, not DAMN the torpedoes -
Riker: I WILL BEAT YOU TO DEATH WITH THE COLLECTED WORKS OF SHAKESPEARE OR I WILL GIVE YOU A FIVE SECOND COUNTDOWN TO DAM THE DAMNED TORPEDO DAMNED DAM!
Picard: OK! GIVE ME A FIVE SECOND COUNTDOWN!
Riker: READY?? NOW - ARM PHASERS!
Picard: Um...
Riker: NOW WHAT'S THE DAMN PROBLEM??!!
Picard: We only have
hand phasers.
