Star Trek: Voyager (TV Series)

Demon (1998)

Robert Duncan McNeill: Lt. Tom Paris

Quotes 

• Harry Kim : When I first came on board Voyager, I was pretty green, right?

  Tom Paris : A deep, almost fluorescent green, if I remember correctly.

• Tom Paris : [on ways to compensate for Voyager's lack of fuel]  We could set up a bicycle in the mess hall, attach a generator, pedal home.

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : Now, why didn't I think of that?

  Tom Paris : And I volunteer Harry to take the first shift.

• Tom Paris : [with the shuttle switched to manual controls on a rough ride to the Y-class planet]  Just sit back, relax and enjoy the ride.

• Tom Paris : All right, I'm gonna set us down. On my mark.

  [the shuttle sets down with a violent jolt] 

  Tom Paris : Mark!

  Harry Kim : You did that on purpose, didn't you?

• Tom Paris II : You know what they say about your life passing before your eyes? Well, it's true. I was finally getting past puberty when suddenly, I lost consciousness.

• Tom Paris II : [to Chakotay]  Don't tell me that a big tough guy like you is afraid of a little poisoned atmosphere.

• Tom Paris : But, do me a favor: the next time you try to assert yourself, leave me out of it. I hate hot weather.

  Harry Kim : Don't worry, we can cut some holes in the environmental suits, get some ventilation going.

  Tom Paris : Harry, while you're busy improving yourself, you might try working on your sense of humor.

  Harry Kim : *My* sense of humor? Uh, what about that stupid gag about the bicycle?

  Tom Paris : Oh-ho-ho, *that* was funny!

• Tom Paris II : ["Tom" has discovered he's a duplicate of the real Tom Paris]  Until he showed up, I thought I WAS Tom Paris - a little changed by my experience on the planet maybe - but now I don't know who or what I am.
