Raffi: And now, you come along for a ride with Auntie Raffi. She's going to hook you up with whatever you need.
Jurati: Is it cake?

You ruined years of patient work by dozens of operatives across hundreds of star systems....you may have doomed a trillion souls across half the galaxy

You might want to point that thing at my head. My heart is solid duritanium.

Picard
