Line 778:
* [[Take a Third Option]]: Neelix gives us the chestnut of "When the road before you splits into two, take the third path." Chuck responds, "The third path...would be back the way you came."
* [[Take That]]: A writer's room reenactment of Ronald D. Moore. ("Genesis")

** For Vulcans, a repressed memory can cause brain damage until the patient tries to lobotomize himself. "Kind of like what happens when you watch an [[Uwe Boll]] film."
** Fed up with the pomposity of first-season ''TNG'' in "The Neutral Zone," where the show tells us acquiring things is evil, he points out that it ''still'' costs a pretty penny to collect the show on DVD, and that even Gene Rodenberry himself has ripped people off in the past (he cites an incident where Gene wrote unused lyrics for the original ''Star Trek'' theme so he could get part of the credit, and thus part of the royalties). "And yet, what a perfect metaphor for 20th century Communism! Taking the credit for the people who do the actual work, all while spouting party doctrine!"
Line 937:
* [[You Can't Handle the Parody]]: Inserted into Dukat's rant in "Waltz."
* [[You Might Remember Me From]]: Brad Dourif, who "you might remember from ''Voyager'', where he was a killer. ...Or ''Babylon 5'' where he was a killer. ...Or ''[[The Lord of the Rings (film)|The Lord of the Rings]]'' where [[Bread, Eggs, Breaded Eggs|he betrayed people and then killed them]]."
** Hey kids, it's [[Mark Sheppard]]! "Great chance to talk about this performer in a ''rare'' appearance '''[[Firefly|in]] [[Star Trek: Voyager|a]] [[X Files|work of]] [[Battlestar Galactica Reimagined(2004 TV series)|science]] [[Doctor Who|fiction!]]'''"
* [[You Monster!]]: Notes the sheer horror of Janeway's actions in "Tuvix", where she forcibly executes Tuvix, who literally goes from person to person begging to be allowed to live. Besides the Doctor, everyone simply stands there and ''does nothing''.
* [[Your Cheating Heart]]: Calls Past!Carey out for hitting on Seven in "Relativity" despite the fact that we later learn he's got a wife and two kids.
