- [as The Doctor sings La Donna E Mobile in the mess hall, Tuvok begins to cry]
- Tom Paris: [quietly] Tuvok...
- [Tuvok goes from crying to laughing uncontrollably, then grunting, as if in pain]
- Tom Paris: Tuvok.
- [Tuvok starts thrashing around]
- Captain Janeway: [clicks her combadge] Janeway to Security, get a team to the mess hall right away!
- The Doctor: Stand back! He's been seized by the pon farr! A neurochemical imbalance is driving him to mate. We won't be able to reason with him!
- The Doctor: [starts singing to the melody of the music] Tuvok, I understand / you are a Vulcan man. / You have just gone without / For seven years, about. / Paris, please find a way / To load a hypospray. / I will give you the sign / Just aim for his behind. / Hormones are raging, / Synapses blazing. / It's all so veee-...
- [Tom loads and throws the hypospray to the Doctor, who catches it while sustaining a note]
- The Doctor: ...hery illogical.
- [injects Tuvok in the butt with the hypospray; Tuvok collapses]
- The Doctor: [finishing the song] Illogical. Iii-ll... illogical.
- Captain Janeway: [after the Doctor has mastered the 'field test'] I'm going to authorize a research project, to explore your command abilities. You're a natural.
- Captain Janeway: [reading from a PADD] "To Captain Kathryn Janeway, Starship Voyager, from Emergency Medical Hologram, Starship Voyager. Topic: Status of Emergency Medical Hologram, Starship Voyager."
- [the Doctor has filed a formal grievance, along with a request to be made captain in the event of a catastrophic emergency]
- Captain Janeway: I don't want anybody to be uncomfortable on this ship. I guess we should all try to be a little more considerate of his feelings.
- Tom Paris: Captain, he does it to himself. He's Chief Medical Officer. Is it our fault that's not enough for him?
