| Pressman : | "And that treaty is the biggest mistake we ever made! Its kept us from exploiting a vital area of defense!" |
| Picard : | "That treaty has kept us in peace for sixty years! And as a Starfleet officer, you're supposed to uphold it." |
| Pressman : | "Now that's enough! I'm taking command of this vessel! Mr. Worf, escort the captain to his quarters!" |
| | Worf folds his arms and neither moves nor speaks. |
| Picard : | "I don't think anyone's going to come to your defense this time." |
