- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: Captain, we're beaming over a replacement coil.
- T'Jon: That's great! And that'll fix us up?
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: Yes, once it's installed.
- T'Jon: Right...
- [pause]
- T'Jon: And how do we do that?
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: [under his breath, to Riker] What is the matter with these people?
- T'Jon: Captain, I hope you realize what you've done to us.
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: Of that you can be sure.
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: Captain, how long have you been in command of this freighter?
- T'Jon: Seven years. This is my 26th voyage to Brekka.
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: And you don't know how to align a control coil?
- T'Jon: It's never come up.
- Lieutenant Tasha Yar: [the crew are trying to rescue a freighter from burning up in a planet's atmosphere] Captain, the tractor beam is available... if you want it?
- Commander William T. Riker: At least we could pull them out of orbit before they enter the atmosphere.
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: [to the viewscreen] Freighter, we're going to lock on the tractor beam and pull you out of orbit.
- T'Jon: Hey, that... that's great.
- [Picard can't quite hide his bemusement with Captain T'Jon's cavalier attitude in this crisis situation]
- Lt. Worf: [the Enterprise tractor beam tries and fails to grab onto the freighter] Captain, the freighter's orbit continues to deteriorate.
- Lieutenant Tasha Yar: The solar flares are interfering with the tractor beam, Captain. I can't lock on.
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: Captain T'Jon, we are unable to attach the tractor beam because of the intense solar activity.
- T'Jon: [disinterested as ever] I understand. Thanks for trying.
