Quotes

Tarrana : Look!
[the holo-grid is beginning to show through Nikolai's simulation of Boraal in a pool of water]
Lieutenant Worf : Do not worry. It is an omen.
Dobara : What does it mean?
Lieutenant Worf : It is the sign of LaForge. It is a message to travelers. It is said when these lines appear and disappear in a pool of water...
[the scene cuts to Engineering where LaForge is listening on the com-channel]
Lieutenant Worf : ... the road ahead will be filled with good fortune.
Lt. Cmdr. Geordi La Forge : Hang in there, Worf.
[works some controls]
Lt. Cmdr. Geordi La Forge : Give me just a second. There, that should do it.
Dr. Nikolai Rozhenko : [the simulation stabilises] You see. Our journey is already blessed. The road ahead is long. Let us have a meal together and then we'll make preparations to leave.
[after the Boraalans have dispersed]
Dr. Nikolai Rozhenko : Worf, very good work. Apparently, we don't make such a bad team after all.
Lieutenant Worf : [Worf can barely hide his contempt] We are not a team. I am here because Captain Picard ordered me here.
Dr. Nikolai Rozhenko : Worf, don't we both share the same goal? Aren't we both trying to make this plan work?
Lieutenant Worf : Only because you forced us into it.
Dr. Nikolai Rozhenko : I'm not ashamed of what I did. I'm not sorry I saved their lives.
Lieutenant Worf : You have not changed. You still expect people to solve the problems you create.
Dr. Nikolai Rozhenko : I'm not here to work out the issues of our childhood. I'm here to save a people who I care about, and if that upsets you, then so be it.
[Nikolai storms off]
