- The Doctor: My simulated virus is leading me to a simulated death!
- Kes: [to Kim] It's nothing to worry about. I just added a couple of hours to his computer program. He'll be fine in about 45 minutes. - Knowing when it would end didn't exactly make it a fair test, did it, Doctor?
- [she leaves]
- The Doctor: She is far more devious than I ever suspected.
- [the Doctor has programmed himself with a holographic flu virus]
- The Doctor: Holographic tissue paper for the holographic runny nose.
- Commander Chakotay: [about his father] We weren't on very good terms when he died. Once he was gone, I didn't know how to reconcile our differences, how to heal our old wounds. I returned to my colony and continued the fight in his name. I took the mark that he wore to honor his ancestors. I spoke to him in my vision quests. But he never answered - until now.
- [a hawk flies above in the sky, crying]
- Kolopak: [voice] Listen to him, Chakotay. Do you hear what he says to you?
- Commander Chakotay: Yes father - I hear him. I finally hear him.
- Ensign Harry Kim: Doc, I don't feel so good.
- The Doctor: Neither do I; and you don't hear me complaining.
- Kolopak: From the day you came out of your mother - upside down - I knew the Spirits have chosen you to be a contrary.
- Young Chakotay: No one chooses for me. I choose my own way. And if that makes me a contrary, I'll have to live with it.
- Kolopak: If you have no spirits to guide you, I fear you will lose your way.
- Various: CHAH-mooz-ee.
