Quotes 

• [Ensign Kim is in command of the Nightingale] 

  Seven of Nine : I've discovered a serious flaw in one of the ship's systems.

  Harry Kim : Which one?

  Seven of Nine : The Captain.

  [Kim looks at her consternated] 

  Seven of Nine : The captain's main function is to issue orders, correct?

  Harry Kim : Right.

  Seven of Nine : And the crew's function is to support the captain and carry out those orders.

  Harry Kim : What's your point?

  Seven of Nine : Every time you give an order, you carry it out yourself. And when someone else makes a suggestion, you dismiss it.

  Harry Kim : These people are inexperienced. They need my help.

  Seven of Nine : When you first came aboard Voyager, did Captain Janeway help you?

  Harry Kim : Sure, she looked after all the junior officers.

  Seven of Nine : By doing your work for you.

  Harry Kim : No. She gave me a lot to do, actually.

  Seven of Nine : Because she felt you were more capable than she was.

  Harry Kim : Of course not. She wanted me to learn, to gain confidence.

  Seven of Nine : Interesting.

• Loken : How's Seven?

  Harry Kim : She may be in shock. I'm not sure. Have a look.

  [he hands his tricorder to Loken, who scans Seven as well] 

  Harry Kim : Your opinion, Doctor?

  Loken : I believe she may be in shock.

• Harry Kim : This is a military mission. We can't get involved.

  Seven of Nine : We've been involved since you first fired on that Annari ship.

  Harry Kim : I thought I was helping people in distress!

  Seven of Nine : Don't they still need your help? Are you abandoning this ship because the mission wasn't what you expected or because being a captain wasn't what you expected?

• Harry Kim : You want to be a starship officer, your job is to follow orders.

  Terek : Sir, I don't think you...

  Harry Kim : This is not a debate! You're under my command.

  [undecided what to do, Terek looks at Loken, then turns away] 

  Terek : No, sir. Not anymore.

  Harry Kim : You're relieved.

  Harry Kim : [to another Kraylor crewman]  You. Take the helm.

  [the man doesn't comply] 

  Loken : I believe you're the one who's been relieved.

• Loken : I thought you were leaving.

  Harry Kim : I get claustrophobic in escape pods.

• [last lines] 

  Neelix : So, what'll it be tonight? I have a light tula cheese soufflé or a zesty lasagna.

  Harry Kim : You know, Neelix, the truth is, I'm not sure.

  Neelix : I thought we talked about this. A captain has to be deci...

  Harry Kim : I'm not a captain, Neelix. Not yet, anyway.

• Harry Kim : [explaining why he won't take Tom on his mission]  You've always been Captain Proton, I have always been Buster Kincaid. It's my turn this time.

• Neelix : Didn't we already scan this nebula?

  Seven of Nine : Four times.

  Harry Kim : I thought the Borg were known for being thorough.

  Seven of Nine : The Borg value efficiency, not redundancy.

• Harry Kim : I should've stuck to playing Buster Kincaid.

  Seven of Nine : A holodeck program can be turned off when it no longer suits you. Reality can't.
