[FONT=Arial][SIZE=10px]PICARD: Oh no! We can't delay the archaeological expedition to Hanoran Two. That'll put us right in the middle of monsoon season. [...] RIKER: The diplomatic corps is busy with Dominion negotiations. PICARD: Oh, so they need us to put out one more brush fire. Can anyone remember when we used to be explorers?[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial][SIZE=10px]TROI: Remember, they have a significantly less advanced technology than ours. They only achieved warp drive last year. CRUSHER: And the Federation Council decided to make them a protectorate so quickly? PICARD: In view of our losses to the Borg and the Dominion, the Council feels we need all the allies we can get these days.[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial][SIZE=10px]RU'AFO: Federation support, Federation procedures, Federation rules. ...Look in the mirror, Admiral. The Federation is old. In the past twenty-four months, they've been challenged by every major power in the Quadrant. The Borg, the Cardassians, the Dominion. They all smell the scent of death on 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 defenceless Ba'ku, your Federation politicians will waver, your Federation opinion polls will open a public debate, your Federation allies will want their say. ...Need I go on?[/SIZE][/FONT]
