Oh boy, here we go with the waterworks again. I’ve always found that puffy red eyes and a runny nose are the signs of a competent captain.

The Pakled know what will happen if they do anything to him. They stand to get caught up in a war just as much as the Federation and the Romulans do. They’re stupid, but they’re not that stupid.

So I pushed on. And every time another doubt appeared before me, I just found another way to shove it aside…

Guys, I really think we’ve gone too far this time. We should just turn around, say that we passed through a sector of the quadrant that caused us all to contract space madness, and plead for some leniency.

Woah, are you kidding? We’ve come this far, there is no way we’re giving up now!

Mariner’s right, Captain. You said so yourself; we may be the only thing standing in the way of a war between the Federation and the Romulans.

Also, we’re pretty much in a lot of trouble already, so we may as well keep going! Unless… we can’t get into un-trouble, can we?

No… You guys are right… I don’t care how we came to be on this bridge. We’re Starfleet! And it’s time I started acting like it.

Any captain would be lucky to have a crew like you standing behind them. Right now, I just happen to be that captain. So, whaddya say… Let’s go stop a war?

Greetings, oh big and glorious head. My name is Captain Bucephalus Dagger of the Starfleet vessel Gecko. We believe that a Romulan senator by the name of Vrimar is in your custody.

We appeal to you, oh bulbous one, to understand that Senator Vrimar meant no disrespect. In fact, I can assure you that his universal translator was malfunctioning at the time.

If anything should happen to the senator while in your custody, the Romulans will blame the Federation. This could instigate a war between both sides. We must make sure this doesn’t happen.

If you want big ears, then first you pay tribute to Biggest Head! Give me 10K G2 Raw Crystal!
