''(Riker proceeds to fire topedoes at the planet's upper atmosphere)''\\
'''Chuck:''' ''Yeah...'' Either Lutan lives on a bowling ball the size of Rhode Island, or Riker is the ''worst'' shot in the history of the universe. If Riker tried to shoot Kennedy, he'd hit Lincoln. That's how far off he is! The man's aim drifts -- in every possible dimension.
