  • 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?

  • 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!

  • Doctor Beverly Crusher: That would be me.

  • 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: Isn't it astonishing though how much clutter there is in the consciousness?
  • 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.
