Batai : We hoped our probe would encounter someone in the future. Someone who could be a teacher. Someone who could tell the others about us.
Capt. Picard : Oh... Oh, it's me... Isn't it? I'm the someone. I'm the one it finds. That's what this launching is. A probe that finds me, in the future.

Capt. Picard : You say I've been ill?
Batai : For more than a week. Eline should have put you in the hospital, but she insisted on caring for you herself.
Capt. Picard : Eline?
Batai : Your wife. If you don't remember that, maybe it's safer not to go home.

Batai : Yes you have, old friend. Don't you remember?
Capt. Picard : Batai?
Batai : You saw it just before you came here.
