- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: Where is Bok?
- Commander William T. Riker: Removed from command, sir, and placed under guard for his act of personal vengeance. Seems there was no profit in it.
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: In revenge there never is.
- Kazago: The android was mentioned, too. What is its price? We should like to... purchase it.
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: He is not for sale. Commander Data is, um... is, um...
- Commander William T. Riker: ...is second-hand merchandise, and you wouldn't want him.
- Commander William T. Riker: How was it, Captain?
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: Very strange, Number One. Like going back to the house you grew up in, but no one's home - except phantoms of the past.
- Doctor Beverly Crusher: Something unusual has definitely been happening to you.
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: Why do doctors always say the obvious, as though it's a revelation?
- Doctor Beverly Crusher: Why do captains always act like they're immortal?
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: The Battle of Maxia. I've never heard it referred to so dramatically before.
- Lt. Commander Data: You will find this most intriguing, sir.
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: What'd you find, Data?
- Lt. Commander Data: The last entry, dated nine years ago, sir. By you.
- Lt. Commander Data: [reads] "We are forced to abandon our starship. May she find her way without us." Apparently she did, sir.
- Lt. Commander Data: One of these two logs is a forgery, sir.
- Lieutenant Geordi La Forge: Correction. The log just found aboard the Stargazer is a forgery.
- Lt. Commander Data: As I said, that is one of them. Is it not?
- [in the Captain's ready room...]
- Doctor Beverly Crusher: What are you doing here?
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: I thought I was Captain of this starship.
- Doctor Beverly Crusher: Of course you are, but I...
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: Thank you for the confirmation, Doctor.
- [Daimon Bok has offered Picard his old ship, the Stargazer, as a gift]
- DaiMon Bok: Consider it... an act of friendship.
- Rata: At no cost? Oh, ugly, very ugly!
- Doctor Beverly Crusher: [after doing a quick scan to see why Picard's having headaches] I see nothing physically wrong, but I want to run some additional scans in Sickbay.
- Captain Jean-Luc Picard: Doctor, all I've got is...
- Doctor Beverly Crusher: Is an order to report to Sickbay, from the only person aboard this ship who *can* give you an order.
