[Observation lounge]
PICARD:
Guinan, how much more can you
tell us about these creatures?
GUINAN:
Bits and pieces.
PICARD:
Anything would help.
GUINAN:
They're made up of organic and artificial Life which
has been developing for thousands of centuries.
Q:
The Borg is The Ultimate User --
They're unlike any threat
your Federation has ever faced.
They're not interested in political conquest,
wealth or Power as you know it...
They're simply interested in Your Ship,
its Technology; They've identified it
as something They can consume --
RIKER:
You brought us here, you exposed us to Them,
and you cost us the lives of our shipmates --
Q:
Oh, please....
PICARD :
....Number One --
Eighteen of our people have died.
Please, tell us this is one of your illusions.
Q:
Oh, no -- This is as 'real',
as Your so-called 'Life', gets.
(And he vanishes)
