• Sulu : Mr. Spock, if it takes a stasis box to find another stasis box, how did anyone ever find the first one?

  Mr. Spock : As with a number of discoveries, purely by accident, Lieutenant.

• Sulu : Nice try.

  Lt. Uhura : I'm slowing down. I used to run the 100 in record time.

• Mr. Spock : I have the weapon.

  Sulu : They've got Uhura and subspace radio. They can call for help from the Kzin planet if they think the weapon's worth it.

  Mr. Spock : No, they cannot, or rather will not.

  Sulu : Why?

  Mr. Spock : Because I kicked Chuft Captain. Consider: Chuft Captain has been attacked by an herbivorous pacifist, an eater of leaves and roots, one who traditionally does not fight. And the ultimate insult: I left him alive. Chuft Captain's honor is at stake. He must seek personal revenge before he can call for help.

• Sulu : [discovering a formidable alien weapon]  If the Kzinti had that, the whole galaxy would be their dinner table!

• Lt. Uhura : We can't let them have that weapon.

  Mr. Spock : They are not about to get it, Lieutenant.

  Lt. Uhura : Why not?

  Mr. Spock : Assume you are a Slaver war computer. You've been turned off. You do not know for how long, but when you were turned off, there was a war on. Now you are awakened by aliens you never saw before. They do not know any of the military passwords. They ask you so many questions, it is obvious they know little about you. Your owner is nowhere about. What would you think?

  Lt. Uhura : I'd think I'd been captured by the enemy, or AN enemy, at least.

  Sulu : And when they ask you how to find your most powerful weapon setting, what would you give them?
