I don't know the episode's name but T'pol and Tucker are talking after the crew is knocked out by a small group of Fenergi (sp) who want to sell the women and think that Archer is hiding gold from them.
You got it, eihwaz1 (let me guess... "I was one"?)! Welcome to Greasespot, and welcome to "the game room"!
The title of the episode was "Acquisition," but you described it correctly, and that's all we need. Please go ahead and post a line or lines from a ST episode. (We're excluding the cartoon, but all the other series are fair game. You might want to peruse the thread to make sure you don't use one that's already been done.)
I couldn't find the quotes with Google; they're probably not exact. Janeway DID say something similar to Chakotay in "Scorpion." but it sounds more like a line she'd say to Seven before the final confrontation with the Borg Queen. If you can find it, WW, please do. Either way, how about giving us a quote to move forward with?
Actually, Pam, if I was correct in my guess (and it turns out that I was), then it's my turn to give a clue. Since you're new here, I'll let it slip, and even cede my turn to you.
Your quote sounds like a Next Generation episode. I'll guess "First Contact."
OK. My last guess without another clue: the one where Data makes audio contact with a little girl and decides he needs to save her from a planetary catastrophe.
Pen Pals. Great little exchange between Picard, Data, and Pulaski about the Prime Directive (Picard wins the argument with a little speech that includes this quote). Vintage ST bible.
Is it the STNG where they visit that planet with all those weird hotties running around, and Wesley steps on the grass and gets the death penalty (but doesn't actually get killed, darn it)?

"Just because a guy's in his underwear, you think the worst."
This should tell you what series it is. Where have you EVER seen anyone in his underwear?
"Back on my homeworld, that kind of thinking almost destroyed our civilization."
"You should have managed your businesses better."
This is a pretty good clue to the episode (if you watched the series).

"There are times I wish Vulcans hadn't learned to repress their violent tendencies."
"Are you calling me a thief?"
"Everyone knows you'd steal the wax out of your own mother's ears."
"Back on my homeworld, that kind of thinking almost destroyed our civilization."
"You should have managed your businesses better."

Let's add more to this exchange:
"I've memorized all 172 Rules of Acquisition. Including the most important one. 'A man is only worth the sum of his possessions.'"
"Back on my homeworld, that kind of thinking almost destroyed our civilization."
"You should have managed your businesses better. "
"There are times I wish Vulcans hadn't learned to repress their violent tendencies."
"Are you calling me a thief?"
"Everyone knows you'd steal the wax out of your own mother's ears."
"Just because a guy's in his underwear, you think the worst."

Thanks for the welcome.

""The magnetic plasma guides are heating up."
"They must've initiated the impulse prestart sequence."
"What does that mean?"
"It means this entire conduit is about to be filled with superheated plasma."
"When you say superheated..."
"Unless I can find another way out of here, we'll be vaporized. Is that clear enough?"
"Crystal."

Coming late to this party... Hey all!
Yep, that was One Little Ship.

2EZ but I always loved it.

I didn't even get a chance to do the fun quotes...
Yes, that was it.
As to this one, I think it's "Symbiosis", the episode with the druggie planet
and the dealer planet.

Oh man... just barged right in didn't I? Well, I'm a known rule breaker. Thanks for the turn George.
Not First Contact or Symbiosis. TNG though.

Is it the one where Worf's step-brother tries to help a colony of people whose planet is dying?
(If not, I have one other guess.)
