• Commander Charles 'Trip' Tucker III : Well - I've got to get back to my warp engine. The... plasma's running a little hot.

  Feezal : I know how it feels.

• [Trip feels that he is being seduced by Dr. Phlox' wife Feezal] 

  Commander Tucker : You gotta understand, I've been a perfect gentleman; absolutely nothing's happened. She's trying to... She's, she's, um... making advances, if you know what I mean.

  Dr. Phlox : [intrigued]  Sexual advances?

  Commander Tucker : I'm afraid so.

  Dr. Phlox : [delighted]  Has she offered to give you a rose petal bath?

  Commander Tucker : No, no. No, nothing like that.

  Dr. Phlox : Oh, any man would be a fool to ignore the romantic overtures of a healthy Denobulan woman! Don't you find her attractive?

  Commander Tucker : Oh, sure. I-I mean, no, she's your wife!

  Dr. Phlox : What does that have to do with it?

  Commander Tucker : She's your wife?

  Dr. Phlox : Oh, nonsense! Nonsense! You're too concerned with Human morality. I thought you wanted to learn about new cultures. Isn't that why you joined Starfleet?

  Commander Tucker : Why, of course it is! But I was brought up believing you don't play around with another man's wife. I don't think I'm ever gonna change my mind about that.

  Dr. Phlox : As you wish. Your loss.

• Commander Charles 'Trip' Tucker III : [embarrassed]  Look, uh... uh, I'm very flattered, but... aren't you a married woman?

  Feezal : I'm a woman. And that's all that matters, isn't it?

• [Feezal is stroking her foot along Tucker's leg] 

  Feezal : [referring to an earlier comment from Sato]  I wasn't exactly... pulling your leg, was I?

  Commander Charles 'Trip' Tucker III : No. Not exactly.
