- Ensign Tendi: I can't believe we are going to serve side by side. Scientists and commanders, an elite team.
- Ensign Mariner: Yeah, no, we're not really elite. We're more like the cool, scrappy underdogs of the ship. You know, we don't wash our hands, we're doing kick flips all the time.
- Ensign Boimler: But with focus and dedication, you could be chief medical officer someday.
- Ensign Mariner: Ugh, senior officers are overrated. They're always like stressed out and just yelling about directives. It is better down here where the real action is.
- Ensign Rutherford: There's a maintenance hatch on the other side of the saucer that should give us access to Deck Eight. What kind of music are you into?
- Ensign Barnes: We have just enough oxygen to get there, but we're cutting it close. I really like this classical band called the Monkees. Ever heard of 'em?
- Ensign Rutherford: Let's just say, "I'm a believer."
- Lieutenant Commander Stevens: Nothing like a cold beer after a smooth second contact.
- Commander Ransom: Now, that's what I'm talking about.
- Ensign Rutherford: I would kill to work on the deflector dish. Most of my day is spent repairing food replicators.
- Ensign Barnes: They really break that often?
- Ensign Rutherford: Only when you get food in 'em.
