How are you so good at fighting?
I'm El-Aurian. I think I know how to fight.
Wait, like Guinan? What, so you're, like, 400 years old?
No, I'm in my thirties. But I pay attention.
A young El-Aurian is just a regular person!

[At the end of the episode, when Ensign Olly has been sent to the brig for hiding evidence]
I have rights! This is tyranny!
The bench is actually pretty comfy in there.
Don't act like we're friends! We're nothing alike! And guess what? I love the brig! This is my favorite place!
[sarcastically, but with an amused smile] Yeah, you're right. We're totally different.
[Dr. T'Ana is performing cosmetic surgery on Mariner, Tendi and T'Lyn so they can blend in with the inhabitants of Dilmer III, a pre-spaceflight civilisation]
Stupid undercover plastic surgery jobs. I didn't go to Starfleet Medical for a costume party.
I'm sure we look great.
I'm a doctor, not whatever the (****) this is.
These Harry Kims are stronger than they look, he'll be fine.
Stay here, guard the ship. I'll save the crew.
But Garak, you're just a surgeon!
I am a surgeon, but not "just".
[They kiss.]
Man, my Boimler is way chiller than this one.
I do not have a Boimler in my quantum reality in order to make a comparison.
Oh, he's a big Starfleet nerd, like Archer. You had one of those, right?
Yes. And 'big Starfleet nerd' is an accurate description.
I don't really care where we end up, as long as it's together.
What? Then why have we been arguing?!
Because it's fun!
No, it's not!
Harry, you have to stop! That ship won't make it!
Nice try! I'm Harry f***ing Kim, and you don't get to order me around! [cackles maniacally]
[panicking] HOLY FUCK, WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!
You know why Boimler's weird death-faking clone sent that cosmic wave at us? Because he knew we kick ass. And I'm not just talking about the five of us. The whole Cerritos crew is stacked with amazing officers. Yeah, there's a lot of ships in the fleet which are bigger, fancier, they have engineering sections that are attached to the main part of the ship. And honestly, those crews are way more professional. Hey, I should know, I've been kicked out of half of 'em. But this thing we do doesn't require perfection. We're explorers. We live for the unknown. You can't prepare for that. Nobody on the Cerritos is even close to perfect. We're a mishmash of people and various creatures that don't fit in anywhere else. But we're a family. That's why I love it here. We believe in the mission and in each other. My mom might be gone, but she handpicked this crew. Which is why I know we're gonna be okay. This isn't the end of the story, it's the beginning. We're gonna make her proud.
