In what way were you able to "drag this out any more"? I got it right.

"If we're going to be damned, let's be damned for who we really are."

[Nate the Great]

Talk about an easy one. Picard in "Encounter at Farpoint."

"For you see, he was afraid and you weren't."

You did, but you offered two choices, and I could have said "Pick one."

The quote is from one of my favorite TOS eps, "The Enemy Within." Bones to "calm but weak" Kirk about "crazy command" Kirk. My turn again:


"Between impulse and action there is an entire realm of good taste begging for your acquaintance."

Ah, that's a classic, but I don't remember the details. Sounds like Doc talking to Seven. "Someone to Watch Over Me"?

Yep, sure could've. And I could then have pointed you to rule #3 in the first post.

Right characters, wrong episode.

ETA: I am going to be offline for a week, so rather than leave everyone in the lurch, I'll just tell you it's from "One" and give Zeke the win.

Oops, I didn't see evay's edit. This forum does need a poke feature.

"My mother always said, 'If you try to combine talking and eating, you'll end up doing neither very well.' "

That's O'Brien from the episode where Garak isn't on the station to have lunch with Bashir. I think it's the one where Garak and Odo end up on the Tal Shiar/Obsidian Order Doomed Taskforce Of Doom. What the hell was that called?

Let's say Crossing the Rubicon.

You're so close I have to wonder if you're doing it on purpose. "The Die is Cast."

My husband used to play some game in which you could in fact poke another monster-like (ogre?) character, and it would repeatedly growl "Stop poking me!" We still use this line occasionally, along with early Bart Simpson "Ow! Ka-wit it."

Of course, we also still use "Svimvear! Veddy nice." Five points to anyone who knows that reference.

"Some game"? That was Warcraft II. I think you're referring to the Orc Grunt.

The poke sequence went something like this:
Argh?
Yes?
Argh?
WHAAAAAAAAAT!
Stop poking me.
IwouldnotdosuchthingsifIwereyou.

The Alliance equivalent (Human footman) said things like "Are you still touching me?" and "Don't you have a kingdom to run?"
