Quotes
-
Lieutenant Tom Paris : [on Seska] You should never have crossed her, Tuvok.
Lieutenant Tuvok : *She* has been dead for over a year now. There would have been no way to predict this turn of events.
Lieutenant Tom Paris : I guess we should've known Seska wouldn't let a little thing like death stop her from getting even.
-
Lieutenant B'Elanna Torres : There is room in every good story for a little bit of passion.
Lieutenant Tom Paris : You know, maybe you're on to something. I could add a steamy love scene between the Starfleet conn officer and the Maquis engineer.
Lieutenant B'Elanna Torres : Oh, that's realistic.
-
"Ensign" Tom Paris : It's been over an hour already, I'm getting bored.
Tuvok : I am not concerned with your amusement, Ensign. We are in a crisis situation and we will follow procedure, and procedure dictates that we wait for the right opportunity to attempt an escape, whether it takes an hour or a week.
"Ensign" Tom Paris : A week? Who wrote this stuff?
-
Lieutenant Tom Paris : [after being tortured by the holographic holo-Doctor] Oh, just great. Maybe we can go to the mess hall now and let the holographic Neelix burn my arm with a frying pan.

[Paris enters the holodeck while Torres is running the holo-novel]
Lieutenant B'Elanna Torres : Are you in the habit of just walking in on people's private holodeck time?
Lieutenant Tom Paris : Well, it's not as if I caught you dancing the rumba with a naked Bolian.
-
Lieutenant Tom Paris : [on the mysterious author of the holo-novel] Remember the good old days when it was impossible to keep a secret on a ship this small?
-
Lieutenant Tom Paris : So, Tuvok - anything in the Dictates of Poetics... about how to escape from a ship full of insane holograms?
-
Neelix : I would never presume to interfere in the creative process. It's more of a comment, really. About the Neelix character...
Lieutenant Tuvok : How surprising.
Neelix : He would never betray the Captain the way he does in that story. Er, no offense, Mr. Vulcan, but I don't think you understand my character very well.
Lieutenant Tom Paris : Tuvok, did you forget to follow the Dictates of Poetics?
-
Lieutenant Tuvok : Need I remind you that it was I who first began the scenario?
Lieutenant Tom Paris : And you think I'm compromising your creative vision?
Lieutenant Tuvok : In so many words, yes.
-
Ensign Harry Kim : So, what's this Ayala tells me about a new holo-novel?
Lieutenant Tom Paris : [laughs embarrassed] Get in line, Harry.
-
Lieutenant Tom Paris : Computer, resume program.
Voyager Computer : The holographic simulation has ended.
Lieutenant Tom Paris : Well, start it up again, right where it left off.
Voyager Computer : Unable to comply.
Lieutenant Tom Paris : Why not?
Voyager Computer : Additional narrative parameters have not been programmed.
Lieutenant Tom Paris : Are you saying there's no more story?
Voyager Computer : Affirmative.
