- Counselor Deanna Troi: Are you all right?
- Doctor Beverly Crusher: Why wouldn't I be? I've got one of the medical wonders of the galaxy dying in my sickbay.
- Counselor Deanna Troi: That's not what I meant.
- Doctor Beverly Crusher: I don't think I wanna talk about what I think you mean.
- Counselor Deanna Troi: Captain Picard...
- Doctor Beverly Crusher: I can't compete with a ghost from his past. No one could.
- Counselor Deanna Troi: She's not a ghost. She's here right now.
- Doctor Beverly Crusher: She may be in the here and now, but it's the ghost he sees.
- Counselor Deanna Troi: [referring to Paul Manheim] I wanted to see how he was doing.
- Doctor Beverly Crusher: The same. Nothing I do seems to make any difference.
- [pause]
- Doctor Beverly Crusher: That's not why you're here.
