->Oh for--...Arthur....man. Just think about how often [[JerkJock these guys come in here to hassle him]], and he still says shit this stupid. Really he should be overjoyed they returned a book ''at all'' instead of just keeping it and tearing out pages and using it to roll joints. Another part of me wonders if the bullies checked out this book and specifically returned it two days late ''just'' to see if Arthur would be such [[TooDumbToLive an officious, oblivious, naive dork]] and ask to charge them 20¢ in late fees. If so, this scene is amazing... The first [[Series/MightyMorphinPowerRangers Blue Power Ranger]] wasn't this obtuse. I mean, not to blame the victim here but it's '''''twenty fucking cents!''''' Let it '''go''', man! '''''THE LIBRARY WILL SURVIVE''''', somehow!

->Four nights in a row with Harry Kim commanding the ship? How are they still in one piece? Oh no wait, silly me…he’s so dull he must do everything by the book. What’s hilarious is that Tom and Harry discuss promotions in this episode as if Harry’s hard work and dedication to duty will earn him brownie points. As if! Tom was demoted earlier in the season and is promoted back up to Lieutenant for [[StatusQuoIsGod doing a whole lot of nothing]] whilst Harry remains on the bottom rung of the ladder looking up at the important people above him! I had to rush to the toilet when Harry started making a speech about the burden of command! It sure comes to something when a machine (the Doctor) has to remind a human (Harry, barely) that morality comes before protocol! He’s so predictable Chakotay can time his away team report to the second. And Garrett Wang wonders [[TheScrappy why people give Harry such a hard time!]]
