| | Riker makes his trombone "talk" |
| "You know, this is a much better way of communicating for you. It's far less confusing than the way you normally speak." |
| "Did you come here for something in particular, or just general Riker-bashing?" |
|
| "Congratulations, you just destroyed the Enterprise." | | to Troi; on failing the bridge officers exam |
|
| "Congratulations, you passed." |
| "That's what this was all about, wasn't it – to see if I'd order someone to their death?" |
| "That's right…" |
| "I knew that was part of being in command, and I thought I'd prepared for it – but when the moment came, I hesitated…Maybe you were right, maybe I'm not cut out for this…" |
| "You did exactly what you had to do. You considered all your options, you tried every alternative, and then you made the hard choice." |
|
| "Well… if you'll excuse me, um… I have the bridge this watch." |
| "Counselor, have you been promoted in my absence?" |
| "That's right. Which means from now on you can call me 'sir.'" |
| "Yes, sir." |
