Picard: "Captain's Log, Stardate 45429.3. While on a mapping survey, we are
conveying a delegation of Ullian to Caldra IV. These telepathic historians
conduct their research by retrieving long forgotten memories."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Tarmin: "Perhaps someone else would care to try?" [To Beverly] "You, Madam?
You're thinking about that first childhood kiss. Would you like to remember
more about it?"
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Jev: "Father, you know you're not supposed to probe someone's memory unless
they've given you permission."
Tarmin: "You are right. But sometimes, with a beautiful woman, I cannot help
myself."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
LaForge: "How about you, Commander? Have any memories you feel like digging
up?"
Riker: "None that I'd care to share with an audience."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Data: "It is perplexing to me that the Ullians' ability to retrieve memory is so
highly prized. If an event were important enough to be recovered, why would
it have been forgotten?"
LaForge: "Well, it's not quite the same for us as it is for you, Data. You
record every second of every moment of your life."
Data: "That is correct."
LaForge: "And then if you want to recall anyone of those moments, you just
access the proper memory circuit."
Data: "My understanding of the human brain suggests the process is the same for
you. Each memory is encoded in chains of molecules. If you want to retrieve
it you simply access the proper RNA sequence."
LaForge: "Yeah, that's true."
Data: "Then in what way is it different?"
LaForge: "Sometimes there are memories we just can't access at the spur of the
moment. For instance, I have no recollection of how I'd spent my last
birthday. Birthdays are important occasions, and you would think that I
remember how I spent the day. Right now, I can't even remember...where I
was."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
LaForge: "On the other hand, I remember everything about the time I got my first
pet, a Cirkacian cat. I was eight. I remember how funny-looking he was, I
remember how excited I was. It was if it happened yesterday."
Data: "Perhaps you remember the pleasant memories and forget the unpleasant
ones."
LaForge: "No, sometimes the bad memories can be the most intense of all."
Data: "It would seem there is no predictable pattern to human memory."
LaForge: "'It would seem'."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Beverly: "Captain, Mister Tarmin gave us a demonstration of his abilities this
afternoon. It's fascinating. Perhaps you would like to resurrect some
memories?"
Tarmin: "I'd be happy to probe your recollections, Captain. Most people find it
an enjoyable experience."
Picard: "I'm sure. However, I don't think I would make a particularly good
subject."
Beverly: "I'm sure you'd be ideal. And, you must have some *intriguing*
memories."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Tarmin: "We won't be on your ship for long. This may be your last chance."
Picard: [Laughs] "Yes. Well..."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Tarmin: "Well you, Mister Worf, I would love to explore Klingon memories."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Worf: "Klingons do not allow themselves to be...probed."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Tarmin: "But there is nothing to fear?"
Jev: "Father..."
Worf: "I am not fearful."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Tarmin: "I have rarely encountered such squeamish people!"
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Troi: "It's not easy having an overbearing parent. Believe me, I know how you
feel."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Jev: "Oh, that's right, you're an empath."
Troi: "Oh, I can't read Ullians. But I do know a certain Betazoid mother who is
a great deal like your father."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Troi: "I've learned to remind myself that my mother and I are two separate
individuals."
Jev: "And have you enjoyed much success with this approach, Counselor?"
Troi: "No. But I do keep reminding myself."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Jev: "Imzati..."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Picard: "Captain's Log, Stardate 45430.9. Counselor Troi has fallen into a deep
coma. After thorough examination, Doctor Crusher has been unable to find
signs of illness or infection."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Riker: "Deanna, I don't know if you can hear me, I've, I've heard doctors say
that even when someone's in a coma, they may be able to hear when people talk
to them. But it might help, to stimulate the brain...speed healing. In fact,
I think you did that for me once, when I was in pretty bad shape. I just
thought...it might help to hear a friendly voice...even if you don't know
you're hearing it. We've been buzy mapping the sector. It's been pretty
routine. Themost unusual thing we've seen is a binary star system. Let's
see, what else. I finished the personnel review that we were working on. You
can check it out...when you wake up. I miss you. Please don't stay away too
long."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Jev: "You killed her!"
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Beverly: "Medical Log, Stardate 45431.7. Commander Riker is the second officer
who has fallen into an unexplained coma. I have examined the Ullians and
ruled out the possibility that they carry a harmful organism."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Tarmin: "I have been accused of putting people to sleep with one too many
stories, Captain. But this is the first time it's ever been suggested that I
might be the cause of someone's coma."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
LaForge: "How did I know you were going to say that."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
LaForge: "I spent two hours having a cozy little chat with the computer."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Troi: "It's like waking up from a nightmare and not remembering what it was
about."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Tarmin: "We're to be prisoners?"
Picard: "No, please, don't look on it like that."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Jev: "It's a pleasant memory, stay with it."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Troi: "It's Tarmin. It's your father."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Picard: "Captain's Log, Stardate 45433.2. We have set a course for Starbase
440, where the Ullians will disembark and return home."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Jev: "My father has never been one to admit that he's wrong."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Jev: "So lovely."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Jev: "Why do you have to be so nice? So...so nice."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Troi: "It was you. It was always you!"
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Picard: "Captain's Log, Stardate 45435.8. Doctor Crusher, Commander Riker
regained consciousness while we were en route to the Ullian homeworld. The
slow process of their recovery has begun."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Tarmin: "It's been three centuries since we treated anyone for this...this form
of rape. But there are medical records from that era. It was a time of great
violence for my people. A time we thought we had put far behind us. That
this could happen now...is unimaginable."
-- "Violations", Stardate 45429.3
Picard: "Earth was once a violent planet too. At times, the chaos threatened
the very fabric of life, but like you, we evolved. We found other ways to
handle our conflict. But I think no one can deny that the seed...of violence
...remains within each of us. We must recognize that...because that violence
is capable of consuming each of us...as it consumed your son."
