Chorgan : That's ridiculous!
Sovereign Marouk : Really, Captain!

[the ship rocks again]
Lieutenant Worf : Chorgan is not responding.
[the ship rocks again]
Captain Jean-Luc Picard : Mr. Worf, can we knock out their shields without seriously damaging their ship?
Lieutenant Worf : I believe we can, sir.
Captain Jean-Luc Picard : Prepare phasers and open a channel.
Lieutenant Worf : Phasers locked, channel open.

[the ship rocks yet again]
Captain Jean-Luc Picard : All right... let's focus their attention. Mr. Worf, fire phasers.
[the Enterprise fires]
Lieutenant Worf : Their forward shields are inoperative.
Captain Jean-Luc Picard : Well done, Lieutenant.
Lieutenant Worf : We are being hailed, sir.
Captain Jean-Luc Picard : That's better. On screen.
Chorgan : Brull, you traitor! You have brought them here to destroy me!
Captain Jean-Luc Picard : Chorgan, if I wanted you destroyed, you would not be talking to me right now. Obviously, I wanted something else.
