Geordi_Well, what do you think?
Riker_Tell me what it suppose to be, and I'll give you my opinion.
Data_It is an attempt to pure creativity.
We're investigating whether Data can be creative.
And this is my attempt with guidance from Geordi.
I suggested to Zylo eggs.
Is that what those are? Keep notes. This project may turn out interest future scholars.
Really?
Of course. Think about a blind man teaching an android to paint? That's worth a couple of pages in someone's book.

Now what are you doing?
I am awaiting inspiration.
Wesley_Commander Data?
This is Commander Data. Go ahead, please.
I'm getting indicational possible trouble in main engineering, Sir.
Can you more specify?
I'm afraid not. I'm reading a problem with the magnetic field which contains the antimatter. Could you come here appear?
We'll go to engineering, where the trouble is. Don't disturb the captain or Commander Riker until we check it out.
Aye, Sir.
Bridge, this is main engineering.
This is the bridge.
Are you running any test programs up there?
No.
Are the Bynars?
Not to my knowledge. Is there a problem?
I don't know. There is no one in duty here. We're getting very strange readings from the magnetic containment field.
The field is deteriorating. Contact the captain immediately. I am initiat in red alert.
Data, I can't maintain the containment field's integrity.
Engineering to captain. If the antimatter is released the ship will be destroyed.
Nothing I do has any effect. I'm losing it. Data, I've rechecked every circuit. This is not a misread by the computer.
Computer, situation analysis.
Computer_Estimate release of antimatter in four minutes, 18 seconds, 17 seconds, 16 seconds...
Engineering to bridge.
This is the bridge.
Alert Starbase. Inform we are abandoning the ship. Tell them why, initiate automated sequence of departure. Set course and speed to put maximum distance between the Enterprise and any inhabited planets.
Shouldn't we wait for the captain's approval?
There is no time. Based on available information the decision is correct. This is Lieutenant Commander Data speaking for the captain. Abandon ship, this is not a drill. All personnel, this is not a drill.

Worf_Still no response from the Enterprise.
They would answer if they could. Someone else has control of the ship.
Do you think I am responsible?
Responsible? How could you have known?
My station is on the bridge.
You can't be on the bridge every second, Data.
You are wrong, Geordi. I can. I do not need rest or diversion. I should not have been painting. I was negligent.
Tasha_That's a pointless discussion, Data. You could have been on the bridge and it still might have happened.
