Doctor Beverly Crusher
- [Crusher is trying to figure out the path to take]
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: [checking the map] This way.
- [moves on]
- Doctor Beverly Crusher: You don't really know, do you?
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: What?
- Doctor Beverly Crusher: I mean, you're acting like you know exactly which way to go, but you're only guessing. Do you do this all the time?
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: No, but there... are times when it is necessary for a captain to give the appearance of confidence.
- Doctor Beverly Crusher: You know, last night I couldn't sleep.
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: Oh?
- Doctor Beverly Crusher: I was awake for several hours, and thanks to the implants, I got to hear some very interesting dreams of yours.
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: A man cannot be held responsible for what his mind does while he's asleep.
- Doctor Beverly Crusher: What about when he's awake?
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: Now that we know how... each of us feels, perhaps we should not be afraid to explore those feelings.
- [Beverly kisses him on the cheek]
- Doctor Beverly Crusher: Or perhaps we should be afraid.
- Doctor Beverly Crusher: I think our link is getting stronger.
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: Maybe if we put some distance between us, that might weaken it - not that I'm growing tired of hearing your most intimate thoughts!
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: One of us is hungry.
- Doctor Beverly Crusher: That would be me.
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: Do you mind thinking of something else? You're making *me* hungry.
- Doctor Beverly Crusher: What do you want me to think about?
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: Something other than a large bowl of vegetable soup.
- Doctor Beverly Crusher: My grandmother used to make it, with peas, carrots and...
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: Beverly!
- Doctor Beverly Crusher: That is not funny!
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: I wanted to see if you were still listening.
- Doctor Beverly Crusher: I'm... I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I just couldn't resist.
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: I'm beginning to realize that you always seem to have some... acerbic remark on the tip of your tongue.
- Doctor Beverly Crusher: Well, at least I've trained myself not to *say* it anymore.
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: I am not being unreasonable!
- Doctor Beverly Crusher: I didn't say that you were. I may have thought it, but there's a difference.
- Doctor Beverly Crusher: Why didn't you ever tell me you were in love with me?
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: You were married to my best friend.
