Cmdr. Charles 'Trip' Tucker III
- Sub-Commander T'Pol: Three days. You were only there for three days, and you couldn't restrain yourself.
- Commander Charles 'Trip' Tucker III: [to Archer] I'm telling you, Captain, I was a complete gentleman the entire time.
- Sub-Commander T'Pol: I imagine that's a question of how you define 'gentleman'.
- Commander Charles 'Trip' Tucker III: I'm the Chief Engineer. I spent years earning that position. I never had any intention of becoming a working mother.
- [last lines]
- Sub-Commander T'Pol: I've run a check through the Starfleet database. You might be pleased to know that this is the first recorded incident of a Human male becoming pregnant.
- Commander Charles 'Trip' Tucker III: Just how I always wanted to get into the history books.
- Captain Jonathan Archer: I'd like you to start seeing the Doctor every eight hours. As your... delivery date gets closer, he should be able to start figuring out what your post-natal responsibilities might be.
- Commander Charles 'Trip' Tucker III: [appalled] Post-natal responsibilities?
- Dr. Phlox: You may very well be putting those nipples to work before you know it.
- Commander Charles 'Trip' Tucker III: The only thing worse than spending three hours in a decompression chamber with a bunch of Klingons is doing it twice in one day. I smelled things in there I hope I never smell again.
- [Enterprise is experiencing problems with its plasma flow, which cause malfunctions in many other systems on the ship]
- Captain Jonathan Archer: Do you think it might be a good idea to drop out of warp?
- Commander Charles 'Trip' Tucker III: Er, give me a minute, sir, I think we can figure it out.
- [at that moment, a conduit behind a panel is bursting. Archer has to put out the fire, then gives Tucker an inquiring look]
- Commander Charles 'Trip' Tucker III: Tucker to bridge. Might be a good idea to drop out of warp.
- Commander Charles 'Trip' Tucker III: You're not gonna believe this! They've got grass growing on the floor. Real grass. It's even green. Is Vulcan grass green?
- [Ah'len feeds Tucker with water in form of ice cubes]
- Ah'Len: Have you had enough?
- Commander Charles 'Trip' Tucker III: [enjoying the experience] A man needs a lot of fluids when he's under the weather.
- Captain Jonathan Archer: How's the breathing?
- Commander Charles 'Trip' Tucker III: A lot easier but... I prefer air I can't see.
