Capt. Edward Jellico
- Captain Edward Jellico: Let's drop the ranks for a moment. I don't like you. I think you're insubordinate, arrogant, willful, and I don't think you're a particularly good first officer. But you are also the best pilot on the ship.
- Commander William T. Riker: Well... Now that the ranks are dropped, Captain, I don't like you either. *You* are arrogant, and closed-minded. You need to control everything and everyone. You don't provide an atmosphere of trust, and you don't inspire these people to go out of their way for you. You've got everybody wound up so tight, there's no joy in anything. I don't think you're a particularly good captain.
- Captain Edward Jellico: I'm not going to argue with you, Gul Lemec. Every one of your ships has a mine on its belly, my finger's on the button, and you're in a very bad position.
- Captain Edward Jellico: [briefing the senior staff on the planned attack on the Cardassians] Geordi. We're gonna need a shuttle, specially outfitted to operate in the nebula by 1400 hours. Beverly, you'll need to...
- Doctor Beverly Crusher: ...have sickbay ready for the casualties you're about to send me.
- Captain Edward Jellico: [the Cardassians have captured Captain Picard trying to infiltrate one of their facilities and confront Jellico with the evidence] I don't know what you're talking about.
- Captain Edward Jellico: [dictating terms to Gul Lemec] Oh, and one more thing. I understand you're holding a Starfleet officer named Jean-Luc Picard. I expect him returned... immediately!
