D'Vana Tendi quotes from Star Trek: Lower Decks

D'Vana Tendi

I'm worried about SMD, Synthetic Memory Degradation. It's a rare condition that affects cyborgs with new implants. First, your opinions change. Then, your brain liquefies and melts out of your nose. Luckily, this is exactly what I've been training for. I will save my friend!

D'Vana Tendi

Kahless' sex helmet? You took it! That's what set off the ship! This is all your fault, you pervert! No judgement.

D'Vana Tendi

The reason you don't much about me... that's my fault. I'm always so busy making everyone else happy that I never open up.

D'Vana Tendi

After a long day of working on the ship, nothing relaxes me like building a smaller version of the ship.

D'Vana Tendi

You just experienced full molecular engorgement in a matter of seconds. Did it feel amazing?

D'Vana Tendi

The bridge crew brought in this crap, they should clean it up! I'm not their mom!

D'Vana Tendi

Dr. T'Ana invited me to a thing on the holodeck. I really need to get on her good side. I can't tell if she likes me or if she makes that face at everyone.

D'Vana Tendi

Well, you've got twelve hours. Why don't you rub some elbows and make a new friend?

Tendi

[to the others while they're stuck in an elevator] I'm glad you guys are my friends.

D’Vana Tendi

I can’t believe we are going to serve side by side. Scientists and commanders, an elite team.

Beckett 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.

Brad Boimler

But with focus and dedication, you could be chief medical officer someday.

Beckett 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.

T'Ana

The anesthetic is useless. We have to work through the pain. Your hands clean?

D’Vana Tendi

Uhhh…

T'Ana

Pump this. Don't pass out. Nobody's authorized to pass out!

Jack Ransom

Oh, what happened? Where am I? And… did I eat flesh?

D’Vana Tendi

Uh, hardly any.

Jack Ransom

HOW MUCH DID I EAT?!

Beckett Mariner

Still uh, happy to be here?

D’Vana Tendi

Are you kidding? I got to hold a heart!

Beckett Mariner

After we dump this in storage lets hit the bar and see if we can get a cute lieutenant to argue with me.

D’Vana Tendi

Interesting, why would you want that?

Beckett Mariner

I don’t know getting some uptight hunk all wound up gets me all…

Sam Rutherford

You never admit the actual amount of time it takes to finish a job. If you did, your days would be packed.

D’Vana Tendi

Isn't that lying?

Sam Rutherford

No. It's creative estimating. When you get an assignment, you exaggerate how long its gonna take, then you're a hero when it's done early.
