Quotes 

• Tom Paris : Six years in the Delta Quadrant and nothing has ever scared me as much as hearing our baby had a problem.

• Harry Kim : It's all over now. No more late nights on the holodeck, no more racing the Delta Flyer...

  Tom Paris : Don't you think you're exaggerating just a little?

  Harry Kim : I've seen it happen. The new dad gets tied down with family, old friends drop away...

  Tom Paris : It's fatherhood, Harry, not exile.

  Harry Kim : If you say so.

• B'Elanna Torres : It's another beautiful day in the Delta Quadrant.

  Tom Paris : What'd you have for breakfast?

• [Tom is having marital problems with B'Elanna] 

  Tom Paris : What am I supposed to do?

  Harry Kim : Maybe you should tell her you understand.

  Tom Paris : What good would that do?

  Harry Kim : It might make her less defensive; and then maybe it would be easier for her to see your point of view.

  Tom Paris : Yeah... What if she can't?

  Harry Kim : Like I said, my couch is your couch.

• Tom Paris : Well, forget about The Doctor. Forget the Captain, all the godfathers...

  B'Elanna Torres : Maybe you're right.

  Tom Paris : I know I am. This isn't about their expectations or hopes... or... doubts. None of this belongs to them.

  B'Elanna Torres : It belongs to us. All of it.

  Tom Paris : Lucky us.

• The Doctor : I don't mean to be indelicate but, weren't you trying to get pregnant?

  B'Elanna Torres : Well, of course. I mean, we knew we wanted a family.

  Tom Paris : But the odds against human-Klingon conception are so high.

  The Doctor : Well, apparently you've beaten the odds. May I be the first to congratulate you.

• B'Elanna Torres : I just don't see any reason to have to label the baby. I don't wanna know the gender, I don't wanna have to pick a name yet.

  Tom Paris : Okay. Okay. Mommy knows best.

  B'Elanna Torres : "Mommy?"
