Quotes 

• Ambassador Liria : Perhaps you've misunderstood me. Let me clarify our position: your vessel is being impounded; you and your crew are under arrest. Prepare to be boarded!

  Lt. Tuvok : Captain, their ships are powering weapons.

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : Mr. Tuvok, raise shields. Mr. Chakotay, take the conn.

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : [to Liria]  I'd like to resolve this situation peacefully, Ambassador, but let me clarify my position: I will not allow this ship to be boarded.

  Ambassador Liria : That, Captain, is an error in judgment.

• Captain Kathryn Janeway : I don't think you understand the way this works. You tell me what I want to know, and after I get my people back, I let you and your sister go.

  Vel : That's not good enough.

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : Mister Tuvok, inform the Akritirians that we're ready to turn the prisoners over.

• Neelix : Until Tom here gets back on his feet, perhaps I could, uh, try my hand at conn for a while.

  The Doctor : That won't be necessary. Lieutenant Paris is just fine, thanks to excellent doctoring. I finished analyzing these implants, and you'll be happy to know that the treatment I provided will successfully counteract their effect on you.

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : What exactly was the effect?

  The Doctor : My readings indicate that the implants are designed to stimulate the production of acetylcholine in the hypothalamus.

  Kes : That would explain the agitation.

  The Doctor : Hmm. Acetylcholine is a brain chemical common to the neural structure of most humanoids. Essentially, it helps stimulate one's aggressive tendencies.

  Harry Kim : Zio was right.

  Tom Paris : C'mon Harry. We're overdue for that steak dinner.

• [Janeway suspects Vel's vessel to be involved in the production of explosives] 

  Vel : This is a cargo vessel.

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : Well, then you won't mind if a few of my crew members come aboard to have a look around.

  Vel : Not if they don't mind having their throats cut.

• Piri : With this ship, you can attack the prison and get your people out.

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : I'm sorry. That's not how we do things where I come from.

  Piri : Coward.
