Prophecy (2001)

Robert Duncan McNeill: Lt. Tom Paris

Quotes 

• T'Greth : I see fear in your eyes, human.

  Tom Paris : The only Klingon I'm afraid of is my wife after she's worked a double shift.

• T'Greth : The prophecy wouldn't lead us to a mongrel child!

  Tom Paris : Hey, take it easy.

  T'Greth : Who are you?

  Tom Paris : The father of that mongrel child.

• Tom Paris : I was hoping our daughter would be special, but I never dreamed she'd turn out to be the Klingon messiah.

• [B'Elanna is beaming herself into her quarters] 

  Tom Paris : When you said "Be there in a minute," you weren't kidding.

  B'Elanna Torres : A group of Klingons ambushed me outside of Engineering. I decided transporting myself would be easier than running the gauntlet.

• [last lines] 

  Tom Paris : You know, this is one special kid we're gonna have.

  B'Elanna Torres : You're just figuring that out?

  Tom Paris : Well, I was hoping for an artist or maybe a musician, but she's already the savior of an entire race.

  B'Elanna Torres : You don't really believe that.

  Tom Paris : I don't know. There're a lot of coincidences to explain. I mean, what were the odds that they'd run into the one ship in the whole quadrant with a Klingon aboard?

  B'Elanna Torres : Probably about the same odds that you and I would get married.

  Tom Paris : Maybe we should name her 'Kuvah'magh' - just to be safe.

  B'Elanna Torres : Put it on the list.

• [Torres is telling the Klingons a "colorful story"] 

  B'Elanna Torres : Tuvok and Neelix fought valiantly, but there were too many Hirogen. I had to face ten of their fiercest hunters - alone!

  Tom Paris : [aside, to Neelix]  Is that how you remember it?

  Neelix : Exaggeration is part of Klingon custom. She's doing great.

• B'Elanna Torres : Today would be a very bad day to die.

  Tom Paris : I'll try to remember that.

• Tom Paris : Paris to Torres.

  B'Elanna Torres : I'm almost finished.

  Tom Paris : You said that an hour ago.
