Fortunate Son

T'pol:
The Earth cargo ship, Fortunate. H-class freighter. Maximum speed warp one point eight. Crew compliment twenty-three.
Travis:
Not counting newborn babies.
Archer:
Ensign?
Travis:
I grew up on a J-Class, a little smaller, but the same basic design. And one thing I can tell you is that at warp one point eight, you’ve got a lot of time on your hands. between ports. That’s how my parents wound up with me.
T'pol:
Do you have any helpful information on this vessel, beyond it’s recreational activities?


Archer:
Easy does it. There’s a lot of debris out here.
Travis:
Aye, sir.
Malcolm:
Some of it doesn’t seem appear to be from the Fortunate.
Phlox:
On the bright side, I’m only picking up inorganic material. No bodies.


Travis:
Trip’ll get a kick out of this. It’s older than he is. Quartermaster won’t have anything like it, but engineering should be able to make one for you.
Ryan:
We got our own machine shop.


Ryan:
All we got left now are hydroponics, and nutrapacks.
Travis:
I remember those. We used to call them. . .
Ryan and Travis:
Mystery Meals!
Travis:
My dad was a pretty good cook. He could do magical things with those nutrapacks.
Ryan:
And when it was someone’s birthday, my mother would bake a cake. We knew better than to ask what it was made of.
Travis:
Didn’t stop you from eating it!
Ryan:
No way.


Travis:
You ever think about doing something else?
Ryan:
You mean join Starfleet?
Travis:
Food’s not bad.
Ryan:
Was this premeditated? Buy me lunch than give me the recruiting pitch.


Child:
Have you seen Nadine?
T’pol:
I’m sorry. I do not know which child is named Nadine.
Nadine:
Thanks.
T’pol:
I just told him the truth.


Archer:
Trip, report.
Trip:
They’re getting a little trigger happy.


Ryan:
We’ve taken enough casualties. It’s time we start afflicting our own.


John:
Any other order of mine you’d like to question?
Travis:
Not today, sir.


Nausicaan captain:
We’re involved in a rescue operation.
John:
There’s a lot of firing going on for a rescue.
Nausicaan captain:
We want our crewman back.
Travis:
He wouldn’t be there if you hadn’t attacked them in the first place.


Nausicaan captain:
You’re facing three of my ships. We’re not interested in your proposals.
John:
We’ve scanned your ships. Mister Reed.
Malcolm:
Fort and aft plasma cannons. I doubt those shields of theirs would hold up to our torpedoes.
John:
You’re not sneaking up on an old freighter this time. This is a NX class starship. Take a good look, because you'll be seeing more of them.


John:
Release that hostage.
Ryan:
He's my prisoner and I'm going to handle this my way.
Travis:
What are you going to do? Kill him?
Ryan:
Oh, you again.
Travis:
Sir, with your permission?
Archer:
::nods::
Travis:
You think that killing one of them is going to accomplish anything?
Ryan:
What'd your captain decide a little boomer to boomer talk would persuade me?
Travis:
Just shut up and listen to me. I don't give a damn about you anymore. I'm just thinking about my family.
Ryan:
What have they got to do with this?
Travis:
What's going to happen to the next freighter that runs into the Nausicaans? What if it's the Horizon, and they have to pay the price for your stubborn stupidity?
Ryan:
I'm doing this for them.
Travis:
The hell you are. This isn't about protecting cargo ships.
Ryan:
That is just what it's about.
Travis:
Don't kid yourself into thinking that you're doing this for some greater good. This is about revenge. Nothing else.
