Sato : | "Your molecules get pulled apart." |
Tucker : | "Then they get put back together again." |
Sato : | "Do you know how many molecules you're made up of?" |
Tucker : | "Lots." |
Sato : | "All right, how many?" |
Tucker : | "Uh, a few trillion." |
Sato : | "That's a pretty big jigsaw puzzle!" |
| worrying about the transporter |
|
Sato : | "It was very unsettling. Didn't you find it unsettling?" |
Tucker : | "For a minute or two, but once I counted my fingers and toes…" |
Sato : | "I don't know, I just don't feel right." |
| discussing their recent use of the transporter |
|
Sato : | "Ever since I used that transporter, nothing has been the way that it's supposed to be. I couldn't translate a simple bimodal syntax but Crewman Baird could. Crewman Baird doesn't know the first thing about our linguistic database! And Captain Archer told me to stay in my quarters, but my mirror doesn't want to give me a solid reflection and my shower can't decide whether to bounce off me or go through me! And nobody wants to talk to me." | | to Phlox |

Phlox : | "Transporter technology is very new. I'm sure Humans were equally frightened when the automobile was introduced, or the airplane. New forms of transport take a while to get used to. I'm not at all surprised at your reaction – you wouldn't catch me using that apparatus." | | to Sato |
