Ja: Computer, initiate Emergency Medical Holographic Program.
Do: Please state the nature of the medical emergency.
Ja: There is no emergency, Doctor.
Do: Well, that's good. I was right in the middle of preparing a culture to test Lieutenant Hargrove for arethean flu, when Ensign Kyoto deactivated me.
Ja: I'm sure she didn't realize you were busy.
Do: What is it you want, Captain?
Ja: Actually, I thought we might just talk for a moment.
Do: About what?
Ja: Doctor, you were originally programmed to serve in a limited fashion during an emergency. Now you're being asked to do much more.
Do: That's certainly true. I'm providing full-time medical service for the entire ship's crew, functioning as both doctor and nurse, and now as an instructor as well.
Ja: You don't have the luxury of thinking of yourself as an Emergency Medical Program anymore. You've become a full-fledged member of the crew.
Do: I see. Are you suggesting that I be reprogrammed?
Ja: No. I'm asking if there's anything I can do to help you.
Do: Help me?
Ja: If there's anything you need or want, I'd like to see that you get it.
Do: What I'd like is to be turned off when people leave. I spent hours here with absolutely nothing to do. When someone does remember to deactivate me they do so without asking if it's convenient. It's extremely irritating.
Ja: What if I gave you control over your deactivation sequence?
Do: I beg your pardon?
Ja: I'm sure we can make it possible for you to turn youself off or to prevent being turned off.
Do: I, I might like that.
Ja: I'll have someone look into it. Anything else?
Do: I am not sure. I'll have to give it some thought.
Ja: You do that.

Ki: Kim to Captain Janeway.
Ja: Janeway here.
Ki: Captain, we've got him back. The Romulan.
Ja: Ah. Good work. Put him through to my quarters.
Ja: This is Kathryn Janeway.
Te: This is the cargo vessel Talvath.
Ja: Thank you for answering our hail, Captain. What is your name? How may I address you?
Te: I prefer not to give my name.
Ja: Very well. I understand that you must've been skeptical when I told you where we are. I hope you've been able to verify our position.
Te: My analysis of your hailing frequency seems to indicate that it originates in the Delta Quadrant. But I am not precluding the possibility that you've been able to create that illusion somehow.
Ja: To what end?
Te: I'm not sure. But, that doesn't negate the possibility.
Ja: How can I assure you of my truthfulness?
Te: You say you are a Federation ship. Are you a Starfleet vessel?
Ja: Yes, we are.
Te: And your mission in the Delta Quadrant?
Ja: Our mission was originally in the Alpha Quadrant. We were pulled against our will to our present location. Now we're trying to get home.
Te: Aren't you in fact Starfleet spies on a surveillance mission?
Ja: Captain, I understand your concern. Naturally the Romulan Empire doesn't want a Starfeet spy on its science vessels. But since we are in 70,000 light years from Romulan space and a subspace message to Starfleet would take years, I think you have to admit that we can't be much of a threat to you. You have nothing to fear from us.
Te: Soothing words, Captain. But they are only words.
Ja: If we were spies, we wouldn't be asking what I am going to ask you now. We have no way of communicating with Starfleet, with our friends and families. We are hoping you might be able to relay a message for us. Our crew is not large. Each of them could write a short, personal message. You would be welcome to read them all before passing them on. And I think you would be convinced they're nothing more than the heartfelt words of some...very lonely people.
Te: Captain, it would ease my apprehension, if I could see that you are who you say you are. I have a signal amplifier on board. I've been working to reconfigure the protocols to penetrate the radiation stream of the wormhole. I think it might be possible to establish a visual link between us.
Ja: I have no objection. When that's done, will you help us?
Te: I make no promises. Let us to proceed one step at a time. Have your officers contact me in order to attempt the visual link. Good night.
Ja: Good night.
