Twisted Line-By-Line

[May 20]

EMH: May I request that Kes be allowed to stay here with me? Beside helping stave off the predatory advances of that woman, she may be able to help me find a way to transfer myself back to Sickbay.

 

[sekundant]

NEELIX: And, er, I'll assist Commander Chakotay, Captain. As you may have heard, my tracking skills are legendary throughout the quadrant.

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

JANEWAY: That all right with you, Commander? Mr. Kim, I'm with you. Let's do it.

 

[Athena28]

KES: Be careful.

[Turbolift]

TORRES: Are you sure this is how you got there before?

 

[Orac]

Paris: Relax, will you? So far, we're right on schedule. The next stop should be

[Engineering]

PARIS: Voila! Engineering.

 

[May 20]

TORRES: Finally! Let's get to work. We've got an emergency situation on board ship. I don't have time to go into details. But you're all to remain at your posts until otherwise notified, whether or not your duty shifts are over. Ensign, prepare to configure transporter systems for a site to site transport. I've got to reset the pattern buffer controls. In the meantime, why don't you check the targeting scanners?
(Torres opens a door and looks at a crewman in his underwear, evidently in the privacy of his own quarters.)
TORRES: Crewman! There's an emergency situation aboard ship. Just stay right where you are. That's an order.
(She closes the door.)

I love that bit!

 

[Orac]

Paris: I think you handled that very well, Lieutenant.

 

[sekundant]

[Corridor]

NEELIX: Commander, I would imagine you've had some experience with women.

 

[May 20]

CHAKOTAY: Some.

 

[Orac]

Neelicks: Oh, come now. Ha! A handsome man like you. I bet women find you irresistible.

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

CHAKOTAY: Neelix, what's this about?

 

[sekundant]

NEELIX: Er, er, er, have you, er, but have you ever been jealous?

 

[May 20]

CHAKOTAY: Of course.

 

[Oddish]

NEELIX: "You have?"

 

[Athena28]

CHAKOTAY: I imagine most people who've been in love have been jealous at one time or another.

 

[Orac]

Neelix: I see. It's a perfectly normal response. Then why, why is it so unpleasant?

 

[May 20]

CHAKOTAY: Jealousy's about the fear of losing someone we love. There's no pain greater than that. Neelix, are you afraid you're going to lose Kes to someone?

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

NEELIX: No. I mean, I don't think so. At least I certainly hope not. I just can't seem to stop these awful feelings.

 

[sekundant]

CHAKOTAY: Nothing makes us more vulnerable than when we love someone. We can be hurt very easily. But I've always believed that what you get when you love someone is greater than what you risk.
