Commander William Thomas 'Will' Riker
- Commander William T. Riker: A blind man teaching an android how to paint? That's gotta be worth a couple of pages in somebody's book.
- [Worf and a few other officers are about to play parrises squares]
- Lieutenant Worf: Rest assured, Commander, we will be victorious, at whatever the cost.
- Commander William T. Riker: Worf, it's just a game, a friendly little competition. You work up a sweat, you have a few laughs, and you make new friends.
- Lieutenant Worf: If winning is not important, then, Commander - why keep score?
- Commander William T. Riker: I could develop feelings for Minuet. Exactly as I would for any woman.
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: Doesn't love always begin that way? With the illusion more real than the woman?
- Commander William T. Riker: What's a knockout like you doing in a computer-generated gin joint like this?
- [last lines]
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: You know, Number One - some relationships just can't work.
- Commander William T. Riker: Yes - probably true. She'll be difficult to forget.
- Lieutenant Tasha Yar: Believe it or not, Worf is developing a sense of humor.
- Commander William T. Riker: I hope so, for their sake.
- Commander William T. Riker: Too real!
- Bass Player: You got that straight, Slim. Too real is too right.
- Commander William T. Riker: What's your name? Tell me you love jazz.
- Minuet: My name is Minuet, and I love all jazz, except Dixieland.
- Commander William T. Riker: Why not Dixieland?
- Minuet: You can't dance to it.
- Commander William T. Riker: My girl!
- Commander William T. Riker: [after seeing the holo-character Minuet for the first time] Gentlemen - if this is what you call 'enhancement', you've got a gift for understatement.
- Commander William T. Riker: [about the Bynars] For them there are only two choices, one or zero - yes or no.
- Commander William T. Riker: How far can this relationship go? I mean, how real are you?
- Minuet: As real as you need me to be.
