Lt. Commander Geordi La Forge : [modulating a dekyon emission in Data's positronic brain] You know, it's possible we've tried this a thousand times and it's never worked.
Doctor Beverly Crusher : Do you have the feeling that you've done this before?
Lt. Commander Geordi La Forge : No, I don't.
Doctor Beverly Crusher : Neither do I. Maybe that's a good sign.

Commander William T. Riker : Damage report!
Doctor Beverly Crusher : Casualty reports coming in from all over the ship!
Lt. Commander Data : The starboard nacelle has sustained a direct impact. We are venting drive plasma.

Ensign Ro Laren : Inertial dampers failing. We're losing attitude control.
Commander William T. Riker : This is the bridge. All hands to emergency escape pods!
Lt. Commander Data : Core shutdown was unsuccessful. We are losing antimatter containment.
Lt. Commander Geordi La Forge : We've got to eject the core!

[the Enterprise is faced with a cloud-like distortion]
Captain Jean-Luc Picard : Back us off, Ensign. Nice and slow.
Ensign Ro Laren : Aye, sir. Captain, maneuvering thrusters are not responding.
Lt. Commander Data : The distortion field is fluctuating.

Lt. Commander Data : There is an energy build-up in the distortion field.
Counselor Deanna Troi : We have to get out of here, now.
Lt. Commander Data : Captain, something is emerging.

Lt. Commander Data : The vessel is on a collision course. Impact in 36 seconds.
Captain Jean-Luc Picard : Hail them.
Lieutenant Worf : No response.
Captain Jean-Luc Picard : Suggestions?
Commander William T. Riker : Decompress main shuttlebay. The explosive reaction may blow us out of the way.
Lt. Commander Data : Captain, I suggest we use the tractor beam to alter the other ship's trajectory.
Captain Jean-Luc Picard : Make it so, Mr. Worf.
Lieutenant Worf : Engaging tractor beam.

Lt. Commander Geordi La Forge : At first I thought the catwalk was spinning. As it turns out, it was me. I was lucky Ensign Fletcher was there to grab me; it's a long way down to the bottom of the warp core.
