Picard: *reads* "'Congratulations on purchasing your Galaxy-class Starship. . .' blah, blah. . . ah: Lighting. 'It is recommended that in the event of a feature film being made, lighting levels that were previously suitable for television be toned down to account for the different film stock.' Damn. Ooh, what's this? 'In the event of the Ship's Counsellor taking the helm, your warranty will become invalid.' Sure, like THAT's gonna happen!"

Crusher: Well, it has been some time, but the answer is yes.
Picard: Good, good. I am working on the deconstruction of a ancient rhyme and was wondering why a simple arachnid would induce fear and loathing in a small earth female.

Picard: Don't remember this note before... "Stinky-Best of luck, and don't let them Naussicans get you down. You'll be captain of a starship yet!--Joey"
