[QUOTE]Originally posted by Shik: [QB] Rasmussen is in Ten-Forward, having accosted Worf, Riker, & Crusher at a tabel. From <A href="http://www.twiztv.com/scripts/nextgeneration/season5/tng-509.txt">the script:</A> RIKER (after a long beat) How come there's no record of other future historians traveling back to witness "important events?" RASMUSSEN We're obviously very careful. Matter of fact, a colleague and I recently paid a call on a twenty-second century vessel. BEVERLY (fascinated) They hadn't even perfected quarantine fields by then. You must have seen surgical masks and gloves. RASMUSSEN Isn't it fascinating how everyone has different interests when it comes to history... different perspectives on progress. Rasmussen opens a small finger ring, looks inside, smiles, and closes it. RIKER Mind if I ask what that is? STAR TREK: "A Matter of Time" - 9/20/91 - ACT TWO 18. 17 CONTINUED: (3) RASMUSSEN Just checking the time... No problem. RIKER (getting a bit frustrated) Is something supposed to be happening here? Rasmussen waves his hand, dismissing the question. RASMUSSEN No, no, nothing. (changing the subject) What about you, Commander? What do you see as the most important example of progress over the last two hundred years? RIKER (pauses) I suppose the warp coil. Before we had warp drive, Humans were confined to a single sector of the galaxy. RASMUSSEN Spoken like the consummate explorer. Rasmussen looks around the room, as if he were waiting for something to happen. RIKER What's going on? You waiting for someone? WORF (abruptly) Phasers! Riker and Rasmussen turn to Worf. RIKER Where?! RASMUSSEN Beg your pardon? WORF There were no phasers in the 22nd century. Riker sighs and sits back. STAR TREK: "A Matter of Time" - REV. 9/26/91 - ACT TWO 19. 17 CONTINUED: (4) RASMUSSEN Ah, you see Doctor? Our Klingon friend is a perfect example of what I was trying to tell you. He views history through the eyes of a hunter, a warrior. His passion lies in the perfection of the tools of violence. How delightfully primitive. Off Worf's reaction we: CUT TO: 18 INT. ENGINEERING (OPTICAL) [/QB][/QUOTE]
