Duty. A starship captain's life
is filled with solemn duty.
:04:11
I have commanded in battle, negotiated
peace between implacable enemies.
:04:18
I have represented the Federation
in first contact with 27 alien species.
:04:23
But none of this compares
with my solemn duty today...
:04:29
...as best man.
:04:32
Now, on an occasion such as this,
it is expected that I be gracious
:04:37
and fulsome in my praise
on the wonders of this blessed union.
:04:43
But have the two of you
considered what you are doing to me?
:04:47
You're happy, but what about my needs?
This is All a damned inconvenience.
:04:54
While you're settling in on the Titan,
:04:58
I will be training my new first officer.
:05:01
You know him.
:05:03
He's a tyrannical martinet who will never,
ever allow me to go on away missions!
:05:08
That is the regulation, sir.
Starfleet Code, section 1 2...
:05:12
- Data.
- Sir?
:05:13
- Shut up.
- Yes, sir.
:05:18
1 5 years I've been waiting to say that.
:05:23
No, seriously, Will, Deanna,
there's still time to reconsider. Yes?
:05:30
- No.
- No? Very well, then.
:05:38
Will Riker, you have been
my trusted right arm for 1 5 years.
:05:43
You have kept my course
true and steady.
:05:48
Deanna Troi, you have been
my guide and my conscience.
:05:52
You have helped me recognize
the better parts of myself.
:05:59
You are my family.
