Jellico: "Let's drop ranks for a moment. I don't like you. I think you are subordinate, arrogant, willful and I don't think you are particularly good first officer, but you are also the best pilot in the ship." Riker: "Well, Now that the ranks are dropped, Captain. I don't like you either. You ARE arrogant and close-minded. You need to control everything and everyone. You don't provide an atmosphere of trust and you don't inspire these people to go out of the way for you. You've got everyone wound up so tight there's no joy in anything. I don't think you are a particularly good captain."
	Riker: "Hang on!" Geordi: "Do I want to know how close I was?" Riker: "No. Get ready to deploy the mines."
	Jellico: "Computer, transfer all command codes to Captain Jean-Luc Picard, voice authorization, Jellico, alpha three one." Computer: "Transfer complete. USS Enterprise now under command of Captain Jean-Luc Picard."
	Picard: "One thing I didn't put in my report... at the very end, he offered me a choice... between a life of comfort... or more torture... all I had to do was say there were five lights." Troi: "You didn't say it..." Picard: "No... but I was going to. I was ready to tell him anything he wanted... anything at all. But more than that, I was beginning to believe there were five lights."
