-
Lieutenant Talas : You don't trust me.
Lieutenant Malcolm Reed : No offense, but when it comes to our weapons frequencies, I wouldn't trust my own mother.
Lieutenant Talas : Is your mother considered a security risk?
Lieutenant Malcolm Reed : It's... just an expression.
Lieutenant Talas : An odd one. My mother's security clearance is higher than mine.
-
Lieutenant Talas : [of Enterprise] I'd take this ship into combat myself.
Lieutenant Malcolm Reed : Even with our primitive weapons?
Lieutenant Talas : It's not the weapon. It's the soldier who wields it.
-
Lieutenant Talas : For what it's worth, Lieutenant, I'm not here to steal your secrets. It'd hardly be worth the effort.
Lieutenant Malcolm Reed : I beg your pardon?
Lieutenant Talas : Last time I saw weapons like these was during my early tactical training.
Lieutenant Malcolm Reed : Sorry I wasted your time on our "primitive" systems.
Lieutenant Talas : Not at all. I found it nostalgic.
-
Lieutenant Malcolm Reed : If you ever decide to leave the Imperial Guard, Starfleet could certainly use you.
Lieutenant Talas : And if you get tired of exploring, you'd do well in the Imperial Guard.
-
Lieutenant Malcolm Reed : You come from a military family?
Lieutenant Talas : Four generations.
Lieutenant Malcolm Reed : Huh... Three. On my father's side.
Lieutenant Talas : He must be disappointed in you.
Lieutenant Malcolm Reed : What?
Lieutenant Talas : Betraying your family tradition by serving on a ship of... exploration.
Lieutenant Malcolm Reed : Actually, we haven't done much exploring for quite a while. But since you ask... he wasn't very pleased. The Royal Navy was his life.
Lieutenant Talas : Perhaps he'd feel differently if he saw you now - fighting for the survival of your race.
