Quotes 

• Chakotay : I thought you might like to get something to eat, unless your memories of our mess hall aren't good.

  Kellin : As a matter of fact, I was quite fond of Neelix's food.

  Chakotay : Now, that's something that's hard to believe.

• Chakotay : [after upsetting Kellin]  Is there anything I can do for you?

  Kellin : Can I have your pudding?

  Chakotay : [chuckles]  Gladly.

  Kellin : Then you're forgiven.

• Kellin : I came here because of you. I knew you wouldn't remember me, but I was sure we could regain the feelings we had before. They were there, they were real, but now I'm not so sure.

• [Kellin is showing Tuvok and Seven her flight route in comparison to Voyager's] 

  Kellin : There, you see? Our ships traveled together for at least two weeks.

  Seven of Nine : You could have falsified your navigational logs.

  Tuvok : There's no proof that you ever came aboard Voyager.

  Kellin : That's what I always liked about you two. Such unyielding logic. Such refreshing skepticism.

• Kellin : [to Chakotay]  You're such a kind person.

• Kellin : You see, we've met before.

  Cmdr. Chakotay : If that were true, I'm sure I'd remember.

  Kellin : No, you wouldn't. You couldn't. You see, the memories of my people can't be held in the minds of other races. When we encounter others, which we do... infrequently, they remember us for a few hours, but then the memories fade away. We're completely forgotten by the next day.

  Cmdr. Chakotay : Is this done through technology? Telepathy?

  Kellin : It's a factor of our biology. You see, our bodies produce a sort of pheromone which blocks the long-term memory engrams of others.

  Cmdr. Chakotay : Is that why the tricorder can't scan you, why we couldn't get a transporter lock?

  Kellin : We're impervious to those sort of devices

• Kellin : When you live a covert existence, you develop technology to enhance it.
