Captain Jean-Luc Picard : Mr. La Forge, take us out of orbit.
Lieutenant Geordi La Forge : Destination, sir?
Captain Jean-Luc Picard : I don't care. Let's just get some distance between us and this system.
Lieutenant Geordi La Forge : Aye, sir. Course 9-7-0 Mark 3-1-8, speed... warp 3.
Commander William T. Riker : Where will that take us, Mr. La Forge?
Lieutenant Geordi La Forge : The Opperline system.
Commander William T. Riker : An interesting choice. Why?
Lieutenant Geordi La Forge : Curiosity. We've never been there.
Captain Jean-Luc Picard : Engage.

Lieutenant Tasha Yar : [on the Ornaran's and Brekkian's natural defensive powers] A natural electrical charge?
Commander William T. Riker : Formidable.
Lieutenant Tasha Yar : Yes. And a difficult weapon to confiscate.

Lieutenant Tasha Yar : [the crew are trying to rescue a freighter from burning up in a planet's atmosphere] Captain, the tractor beam is available... if you want it?
Commander William T. Riker : At least we could pull them out of orbit before they enter the atmosphere.
Captain Jean-Luc Picard : [to the viewscreen] Freighter, we're going to lock on the tractor beam and pull you out of orbit.
T'Jon : Hey, that... that's great.
[Picard can't quite hide his bemusement with Captain T'Jon's cavalier attitude in this crisis situation]
Lt. Worf : [the Enterprise tractor beam tries and fails to grab onto the freighter] Captain, the freighter's orbit continues to deteriorate.
Lieutenant Tasha Yar : The solar flares are interfering with the tractor beam, Captain. I can't lock on.
Captain Jean-Luc Picard : Captain T'Jon, we are unable to attach the tractor beam because of the intense solar activity.
T'Jon : [disinterested as ever] I understand. Thanks for trying.
