Subcommander T'Pol:
Is there something else?

Commander Tucker:
You and Trip used to spend a lot of time here together.

Subcommander T'Pol:
I was instructing him in the practice of Vulcan neuropressure.

Commander Tucker:
I remember. We were lying right there [points to floor] working the neural nodes on each other's feet, talking about the warp engines. How I was hoping to modify them.

Subcommander T'Pol:
How Commander Tucker was hoping to modify them.

Commander Tucker:
[dejected] Right, Commander Tucker. [pause] You know, he was really starting to enjoy those sessions with you.

Subcommander T'Pol:
They were helping him sleep.

Commander Tucker:
[voice getting quieter] I'm not sure that's the only reason.

Subcommander T'Pol:
What do you mean?

Commander Tucker:
Was there ever anything between you and Trip?

Subcommander T'Pol:
If you are referring to a romantic relationship... no.

Commander Tucker:
The reason I ask is... well... you're all I think about, if you know what I mean. And, I'm not talking about an adolescent crush. That was... well, that was two days ago. This is much more serious, the way I feel about you. Anyway, what's driving me crazy is, I don't know if these feelings are mine... or his.

Subcommander T'Pol:
[voice cracking] I can't answer that.

Commander Tucker:
I didn't mean to make you feel uncomfortable.

Subcommander T'Pol:
I'm not uncomfortable.

Commander Tucker:
I just thought I should tell you this, while I still had the chance.
