Captain Sulu
- [Tuvok protests against Sulu's decision to rescue his comrades]
- Captain Sulu: Ensign, you're absolutely right, but you're also absolutely wrong. You'll find that more happens on the bridge of a starship than just carrying out orders and observing regulations. There's a sense of loyalty to the men and women you serve with, a sense of family. Those two men on trial, I served with them for a long time. I owe them my life a dozen times over, and right now they're in trouble and I'm gonna help them. Let the regulations be damned.
- Tuvok: Sir, that is a most illogical line of reasoning.
- Captain Sulu: You better believe it.
- [Captain Sulu tastes some of Tuvok's Vulcan tea]
- Captain Sulu: Outstanding! I may have to give you a promotion.
- Tuvok: That was not my motivation, Captain. I am not attempting to curry favor with you in any way.
- Captain Sulu: [laughing] Mr. Tuvok, if you're gonna remain on my ship, you're gonna have to learn how to appreciate a joke - and don't tell me Vulcans don't have a sense of humor, because I know better.
- Tuvok: I will... work on it, sir.
