- Tak Tak: Astonishment. Your vessel - purified.
- Captain Janeway: And we'd be willing to share the cure with you, if you'd be kind enough to forgo destroying our ship.
- [the Doctor is creating an antigen to combat the virus]
- The Doctor: As for the larger versions of the viruses - what I've termed the 'macrovirus' - I would suggest a fly swatter.
- Neelix: It's getting awfully hot in here.
- Captain Janeway: When environmental controls fail, heat from the warp plasma conduits can't be vented. Expect a heat wave before long.
- Neelix: No problem, I'm used to it. I grew up near the Rinax marshlands. Our summers were the hottest in the sector. 50 degrees Celsius at 90 percent humidity, and the most vicious lavaflies you've ever seen.
- Captain Janeway: Summers in Indiana were pretty similar when I was growing up.
- Neelix: Except that we had three suns, and the lavaflies grew to be six centimeters long.
- Captain Janeway: Six centimeters, eh?
- Neelix: Insect repellent was a booming business.
- [Captain Janeway and the Doctor are using the ship's conduits to get through the ship]
- Captain Janeway: Take Jefferies tube 11.
- [the Doctor looks unsure]
- Captain Janeway: What's wrong?
- The Doctor: I've been studying the ship's infrastructure, and I'm familiar with most of it, but how do I get there from here?
- Captain Janeway: [indicating an access tube] Jefferies tube 11. Take a left at section 31, and straight down past the tractor beam emitter until you hit deck 10. Get out at section 3 and follow the corridor all the way around until...
- The Doctor: ...until I hit the shuttle bay. Then I crawl through access port 9, go past three airlocks, and then two decks down. Environmental control's at the end of the hall. Now I remember!
- [walks on, but turns around]
- The Doctor: Who designed this ship, anyway?
- Captain Janeway: You have a genuine flair for diplomacy, Mr. Neelix. I may have to promote you - from morale officer to ambassador. With all the species we're bound to meet, I could use a man like you at the front door.
- Neelix: Ambassador Neelix - I like the sound of that.
- [the entire crew is feeling ill from a virus infection]
- Tom Paris: Well, so much for lunch.
- B'Elanna Torres: [groans] I may never look at food again.
- Tom Paris: I thought Klingons didn't get nauseated. You have a redundant stomach.
- B'Elanna Torres: [sighs] Well, right now, they're both unhappy.
- [Janeway and Neelix are examining a hole in a floor panel, with a mucilaginous substance in it]
- Captain Janeway: Well, Ambassador - I'd say we've got an unexpected guest.
- Neelix: Somehow I don't think he's the diplomatic type.
- Neelix: [referring to the multiple humming outside the turbo lift] Uh, Captain - it sounds like our guest has brought a few friends.
- The Doctor: [after almost shooting Janeway] Captain! Needless to say, I... I thought you were something else.
- Captain Janeway: Why are you firing at us?
- Tak Tak: The Garan mining colony infected. We purified them. Your distress call received: Voyager infected. We are purifying you.
- Captain Janeway: [after crawling through the Jeffries tubes dressed as Sarah Connor /Ripley] . I've put together what you might call an antigen bomb. Now all I've got to do... is Drop It.
- The Doctor: [one of the infected miners runs into the Doctor] Hold on. Stop.
- Garan Miner: [barely conscious] You... you've got to help us.
- The Doctor: I intend to but first I must return to my ship and prepare an antidote.
- Garan Miner: Take me with you.
- The Doctor: I'm afraid that's not possible. We'd risk infecting the crew.
- Garan Miner: You can't leave me... please.
- [the miner loses consciousness]
- The Doctor: [via the comm] Commander Chakotay, perhaps if we established a forcefield around Sickbay and beamed victims directly to...
- Commander Chakotay: [over the comm] I'm sorry but I'm afraid we can't take the chance.
- The Doctor: [more forcefully] But these people need...
- Commander Chakotay: [sternly but sympathetically] Doctor, Away team guidelines specifically forbid the transport of unknown infectious...
- The Doctor: ...of unknown infectious agents onto a starship without establishing containment and eradication protocols. I understand.
- [to the miner]
- The Doctor: I'll do my best to help you.
- [barely acknowledging]
