	Tam Elbrun: "It worries you -- that I can't read your mind?" Data: "Perhaps there is nothing to read. Nothing other than mechanism and algorithmic response..." Tam Elbrun: "Perhaps you're just different. Not a sin, you know -- though you may have heard otherwise."
	Picard: "Mister Elbrun - one reason I want you to work closely with a member of my staff is to avoid any further... omissions. The possibility of an encounter with Romulans on this mission is hardly trivial. Yet you..." Tam Elbrun: "All right, all right... I should have brought up the Romulans earlier, but I was distracted."

	Data: "Individually they were both so ..." Troi: "Wounded, isolated." Data: "Yes, but no longer. Through joining, they have been healed. Grief has been transmuted to joy, lonelyness to belonging."
