Jay Karnes: Lieutenant Ducane

Quotes 

• Seven of Nine : [describing a causality loop]  The Borg once traveled back in time to stop Zephram Cochrane from breaking the warp barrier. They succeeded, but that in turn led the Starship Enterprise to intervene. They assisted Cochrane with the flight the Borg were trying to prevent. Causal loop complete.

  Lieutenant Ducane : So, in a way, the Federation owes its existence to the Borg.

  Seven of Nine : You're welcome.

• Lieutenant Ducane : [to Braxton]  I'm sorry, sir. I'm taking command of this vessel, and I'm relieving you of duty for crimes... you're going to commit.

• Captain Braxton , Lieutenant Ducane : [respectively]  Tempus fugit.

• Seven of Nine : If I fail, you will recruit me again.

  Captain Braxton : If necessary, but this will be the third time you're going to be removed from your time frame. If we do it a fourth, there could be certain... side effects.

  Seven of Nine : Side effects.

  Lieutenant Ducane : You might experience sensory aphasia. It affects the cerebral cortex and can lead to temporal psychosis.

  Captain Braxton : But in your case, we're hoping third time's the charm, eh?
