Gallatin : [after a failed attempt to capture all the Ba'ku on the planet] They're following the Kelvinite deposits, using the interference to block our transporters. Recommendations?
Admiral Matthew Dougherty : Take me down. Let me talk to Picard.
Ad'har Ru'afo : Oh, talk! We should send down an assault team and take them by force!
Admiral Matthew Dougherty : That is not an acceptable option. If people get hurt, all the support we have from the Federation...
Ad'har Ru'afo : Federation support. Federation procedures. Federation rules! Look in the mirror, Admiral. The Federation is old! In the past twenty-four months they have been challenged by every major power in the quadrant: The Borg, the Cardassians, the Dominion. They all smell the scent of death of the Federation. That's why you've embraced our offer. Because it will give your dear Federation new life. Well, how badly do you want it, Admiral? Because there are hard choices to be made, NOW! If the Enterprise gets through with news about their brave Captain's valiant struggle on behalf of the defenseless Ba'ku, your Federation politicians will waiver. Your Federation opinion polls will open up public debate. Your Federation allies will want their say. You... Need I go on?
