Henry Stram: Hudak

Quotes 

• Dr. Phlox : You also asked me if I have children; I have five. And no, I never told them my grandmother's stories. When they asked me about the Antarans, I told them the truth, as best as I knew it. I told them about our military campaigns against your people. About how we had demonized you, turned you into a faceless enemy. I wanted them to learn to judge people for what they really are - not what the propaganda tells them.

  Hudak : How would you know who we really are?

  Dr. Phlox : I don't. But I am proud to say that my children would consider my grandmother's attitude archaic - all of them but one.

• Captain Jonathan Archer : [on Dr. Phlox in particular and on Denobulans in general]  If you spent some time with him - it might change your perception of them.

  Hudak : A few hours in our historical archives might change yours.

• Hudak : Tell me, were you raised listening to stories about my people, the 'evil Antarans'? Did they give you nightmares?

  Dr. Phlox : I could ask you the same question about my people.

  Hudak : Do you have children, Doctor?

  Dr. Phlox : Why?

  Hudak : Did you tell those stories to them? Did you teach them to hate Antarans just like you were taught?

  Dr. Phlox : My children have nothing to do with this.

  Hudak : Don't they? If they were here right now, what would they think about their father, talking to an Antaran?

  Dr. Phlox : Enough!

  Hudak : Would you even let them in the same room with me?

  Dr. Phlox : I have tried to treat you with respect, but I refuse to listen to these insults. You're the reason we haven't been able to put the past behind us! You have kept this hatred alive! No Denobulan would want to be in the same room with you!
