Commander William Thomas 'Will' Riker
- [Deanna is in a downed shuttlecraft but Armus blocks the away team's path to her]
- Commander William T. Riker: She needs our help!
- Voice of Armus: So what?
- Lt. Cmdr. Data: [about whether the tar-like oil slick that is Armus is a living creature] It is possible. It possesses two of the requisites for life.
- Voice of Armus: [his deep, almost demonic voice is heard for the first time] Very good, tin man!
- [Armus slowly lifts himself like a slimy ghost rising from the dead, before the landing party's very eyes]
- Capt. Picard: [back on the Enterprise Bridge, Picard becomes concerened] What is it, Number One? What are you seeing?
- Commander William T. Riker: [grimly; as Armus reaches his full height] Trouble.
