Quotes 

• Chakotay : How are the children?

  Neelix : Tucked in their alcoves, safe and sound.

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : I hope they weren't frightened.

  Neelix : Oh, why would they be frightened, Captain?

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : They were in the dark for three hours.

  Neelix : Oh, no, not to worry! I told them a story to pass the time.

  Tom Paris : Let me guess, Mother Goose.

  Neelix : Certainly not! Some of those fairy tales can be frightening - ogres and child-eating monsters...

• Neelix : All right, gather round, but I'm warning you - this is not a tale for the faint of heart.

  Mezoti : We're not faint of heart.

  Icheb : Our cardiopulmonary systems are reinforced.

  Mezoti : So don't leave anything out.

• Neelix : [to Tuvok]  You're coming with me, if I have to drag you by your pointy little ears.

• Neelix : [describing a dramatic scene]  The turbolift started to fall, faster and faster...! Anybody hungry?

  Mezoti : [on edge]  Neelix!

• Neelix : Y-you really shouldn't sneak up on people like that. I could have shot you.

  Tuvok : Your restraint is commendable.

• Tuvok : Rest assured, this crew is doing everything possible to regain control of the ship.

  Neelix : You're right, I'm just being silly.

  Tuvok : I concur.

• Neelix : Did I ever tell you about the Salvoxia?

  Tuvok : If I say yes, will it prevent you from telling the story?

• Neelix : Pleasant thoughts. Pleasant thoughts.

• Neelix : Well, considering that Engineering was eight decks down, and the only way to get there was to crawl through pitch-black Jefferies tubes, it's fair to say that I was never more frightened in my life.

• [last lines] 

  Neelix : [about the alien life form]  Well - I hope it lives happily ever after.

• Icheb : I wonder what the crew of the Salvoxia did for food after their emergency rations were gone.

  Mezoti : Maybe they ate each other.

  Neelix : All right, uh, that's enough!

• Neelix : You haven't touched your snacks.

  Mezoti : Snacks are irrelevant!

• Neelix : Sorry. I didn't mean to scare you.

• Neelix : We can either debate comparative xenobiology or I can continue with the story. Now, it's up to you.

• Tuvok : I am giving you an order.

  Neelix : And I'm disobeying it.
