• [Boimler is having to climb through service crawlways to get to the bridge. He has a Voyager commemorative plate that he wants the visiting Lt. Tom Paris to sign] 

  Ensign Brad Boimler : [grunt]  Ha! Nobody knows the Cerritos like Bradward Boimler.

  [a service doorway shuts in front of Boimler] 

  Ensign Brad Boimler : [yelp]  Fine. You want to play it that way, Cerritos? I know another way. Because I know you, like you should know me!

  [another service doorway shuts behind Boimer] 

  Ensign Brad Boimler : [yelp] 

  Computer : Access denied.

  Ensign Brad Boimler : Oh, no, no, no. This can't be happening. First I get kicked off the Titan. Then the Cerritos doesn't even know me anymore? Where do I belong?

  [cries] 

  Ensign Brad Boimler : Aw...

  Lt. Tom Paris Commemorative Plate : [blinks twice, then speaks]  Come on, Brad. This is your home. You're right where you belong.

  Ensign Brad Boimler : Then why am I gonna die in a Jefferies tube?

  Lt. Tom Paris Commemorative Plate : [chuckle]  You're not. You are Brad Boimler. And you've been in tougher spots than this. Now open up a panel and start figuring out a solution.

  Ensign Brad Boimler : [sniff]  You're right. Thanks, Tom Paris.

  [Boimler sets the plate upright against the wall, then opens a computer panel and starts working] 

  Lt. Tom Paris Commemorative Plate : I am a little worried about the fumes in here though. You know, since you're talking to a plate.

  Ensign Brad Boimler : I don't know. I kinda like 'em.
