Here is a 5-minute "Q Who?":

 

La Forge: Why are you so polite to our replicators?

Gomez: I called one of these things an overgrown toaster once and it never forgave me.

Gomez: I'm so glad to have this chance to serve....

(BUMP!)

Picard: Augh!

Gomez: ....the Captain some hot chocolate.

La Forge: Sonya, the Captain likes tea. Preferably in a cup, if you catch my drift.

Gomez: Oops.

 

Q: Let me take care of that soaked uniform, Jean-Luc.

(FLASH!)

Picard: Q, give me back my clothes this instant!

Q: Can I at least add some marshmallows?

 

Picard: Why did you send this shuttle to the other side of the galaxy?

Q: I'm warming up for my next prank.

 

Guinan: (over the comm) Bridge, I'm sensing something odd in Ten-Forward.

Riker: How? Do you have a sensor dish hidden in that silly hat of yours?

Guinan: Who told you?

 

Riker: The Captain has mysteriously disappeared from the ship.

Wesley: Hey, neat! Does that mean we all get to move up in rank?

Worf: The Captain has mysteriously reappeared in Ten-Forward.

Wesley: Nuts.

 

Guinan: Q!

Q: Eh? You?

Guinan: Aye, I.

Q: Gee.

Picard: What is this...first-grade alphabet class?

 

Q: I came here to serve you.

Picard: Not more hot chocolate, I hope.

 

Q: I'm going to teach you arrogant humans a lesson!

(SNAP!)

(The Enterprise is catapulted 7,000 light-years)

Guinan: Q, if I've told you once, I've told you a thousand times: DON'T PROVOKE THE BORG!

 

Data: We are near system J-25.

Riker: How could this system have a name? This whole sector is unexplored.

Data: I just made it up, sir.

 

Data: The approaching cubical ship has no bridge, no engine room and no crew.

Worf: It also has no shields and no identifiable weapons.

Riker: I guess it's harmless. We'd better keep our shields down.

Picard: Agreed. We don't want to look threatening.

Guinan: (over the comm) Could I make a small comment here?

 

Picard: What did the cybernetic intruder do when he arrived?

La Forge: He studied and accessed our food replicator, sir.

Gomez: And he didn't even say "please" to it!

 

Picard: Lieutenant Worf, apprehend the intruder!

Worf: Anonymous Ensign, apprehend the intruder!

(The Borg drone clobbers the Ensign)

Q: Uniform colours may change, but some traditions never do....

 

Guinan: The Borg always attack in force, never individually.

Picard: So they'd never send a single cube against Earth, right?

Guinan: Right.

 

Borg Ship: (over the comm) We're Borg. Get assimilated. Resistance sucks.

Troi: Captain, they may be threatening us.

Riker: Not the kind of "friendly" greeting you'd use, eh sir?

Picard: Let's hope that's the last we ever hear of it.

 

Troi: We're dealing with a collective mind here.

Picard: Hmm..."collective." Catchy term.

 

Q: The Borg want two things from you. One is your technology.

Picard: And the other?

Q: Are you sure you want to know?

 

Picard: (over the comm) Describe the inside of the Borg ship.

Riker: It's not what I'd call a hive of activity.

 

Picard: Q, we need you!

Q: I was hoping for "want," but I'll settle for that.

 

Guinan: Because of Q, the Borg now know of your existence.

Picard: Perhaps what we needed was a kick in our complacency.

Guinan: Perhaps what Q needs is to be stabbed with a fork.

(The Enterprise sails away at Ludicrous Speed)

I laughed my head off when she did that crouching tiger hidden dragon stylee hand/finger/crazy eyes thing at Q. I'm not sure of he was scared of her or whether he just thought if he opened her a tin of tuna she would back down and start purring.

 

I think that in that dialogue there was a suggestion that Guinan was somrthing other than she was - "is that the name she goes by now", "she's an imp" etc. But then Times Arrow farted along and destoyed that mystery and Generations just made her into a good ole gal that is as wholesome as a cup of earl grey (yawn)

Looks like the 'yes' vote has it in a landslide :blush:

 

Yup. She's a very 'loved' character... heck, even I, Mrs.'I-Strongly-Dislike-Every-Woman-That-Gets-Too-Close-To-Jean-Luc' like her! :elephant: :elephant:

what can I say? I'm a Guinan fan. She was a great character to add and i don't know who they got by without her. I can't imagine Picard without her giving him her advice. When I think of Picard, at times, i think of Guinan as well

She has green booze and a huge disruptor rifle under the bar. Of course she's cool!

Did she really?

 

Yes. She did.
