Demon (1998)

Kate Mulgrew: Capt. Kathryn Janeway

Quotes 

• Tom Paris : [on ways to compensate for Voyager's lack of fuel]  We could set up a bicycle in the mess hall, attach a generator, pedal home.

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : Now, why didn't I think of that?

  Tom Paris : And I volunteer Harry to take the first shift.

• [Kim intends to shuttle to the demon class planet to collect deuterium, despite Janeway's and Tuvok's reservations] 

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : Even if I agreed, I'd never let you go alone.

  Harry Kim : Of course not. That's why I'm volunteering my good buddy Tom here to go with me.

• Captain Kathryn Janeway : [analyzing the silvery substance]  Deuterium, hydrogen sulfate, dichromates...

  B'Elanna Torres : Add a little sodium chloride and it would probably taste a lot like Neelix's soup.

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : We should be so lucky.

• The Doctor : [complaining to Chakotay about Neelix and a few other crew members trying to use sickbay as temporary quarters]  Mr. Neelix is attempting to turn my sickbay into a flop house.

  Chakotay : We are short on beds for now. We've got to adapt.

  Neelix : A-ha!

  The Doctor : But... what if there's a medical emergency?

  Chakotay : Then Neelix and the others will get out of the way.

  Neelix : Absolutely!

  The Doctor : But... this isn't just sickbay. It's my residence.

  Neelix : And we promise to be the most perfect houseguests.

  Chakotay : What more can you ask for?

  The Doctor : But... I have a routine. I'm a night owl. What if one of them should snore while I'm listening to Puccini?

  Chakotay : Well, if you feel that strongly about it, Doc, I suppose we'll have to consider other options.

  The Doctor : Thank you, Commander.

  [sneers at Neelix] 

  Chakotay : For example, we could shut down your program until you're needed. The Captain asked me to look for ways to conserve power. And it would spare you from having to listen to them snore.

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : [over communicator]  Commander Chakotay to the bridge.

  Chakotay : On my way.

  [leaves] 

  The Doctor : But...

• [Voyager has landed on the demon class planet] 

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : Status?

  Tuvok : I could give you a litany of damaged systems, Captain, but suffice it to say, now that we're down, we won't be going up again soon.

• Harry Kim II : [about the biomimetic compound]  Yes, but it's never been conscious, never sentient before now, before me and the other.

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : Tom Paris.

  Harry Kim II : We're the first. Don't you see? You came here, you showed us. When the compound came in contact with Tom and Harry, it experienced awareness for the first time. Before, it was only instinct - sound and light and heat - but those two... showed us THOUGHT!

• Captain Kathryn Janeway : [to Kim II]  It's time to meet your new family.

• Tuvok : [as Voyager orbits a demon-class planet]  A thermionic discharge has struck the forward shields. They're holding.

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : Let's get this over with before you tell me otherwise.
