Barbara Anderson as Lenore Karidian: "All this power, surging and throbbing... yet under control."

Leonard Nimoy as Spock: “Even in this corner of the galaxy, Captain, two plus two equals four.”

Anderson: “Caesar... beware the ides of March.”

William Shatner as Kirk: “Kodos... is dead.”

William Sargent as Thomas Leighton: “Is he? Is anyone sure? A body burned beyond recognition?”

Shatner: “You sound certain... I wish I could be.”

Shatner: “Men change... Memory changes.”

Shatner: “Those beautiful words... change nothing.”

Shatner: “The authorities closed the book on that case years ago.”

Anderson: “They weren’t innocent! ... They were dangerous!”

Majel Barrett as the voice of the Enterprise computer: “Data being received.”

Anderson: “You cannot deny him his last performance!”

Shatner: “I’ve done things I’ve never done before. I’ve placed my command in jeopardy!”

Shatner: “I don’t know... I’ll try and find out.”

Shatner: “Double red alert!”

Sfx: Red alert horn.

DeForest Kelley as McCoy: “Do you know this is the first time in a week that I’ve had time for a drop of ‘the true?’ ... Would you care for a drink, Mr. Spock?”

Nimoy: “My father’s race was spared the dubious benefits of alcohol.”

Nimoy: “Kodos began to separate the colonists. Some would live. He rationed whatever food was left. The remainder would be immediately put to death. Apparently he had his own theories of eugenics.”

Kelley: “Unfortunately he wasn’t the first.”

Nimoy: “Perhaps not, but he was certainly among the most ruthless – to decide arbitrarily who would survive and who would not, using his own personal standards, and then to implement his decision without mercy.”

Arnold Moss as Anton Karidian: “Survival depends on drastic measures. Your continued existence represents a threat to the well-being of society. Your lives mean slow death to the more valued members of the colony. Therefore, I have no alternative but to sentence you to death.”

Moss: “Some had to die that others might live!”

Shatner: “If my memory needs refreshing, Mr. Spock, I’ll ask you for it. In the meantime, follow my orders.”

Shatner: “I don’t wish to discuss it, Mr. Spock. Please follow my orders.”

Anderson: “Is that for me?”

Shatner: “Why not.”

Anderson: “Don’t you see? All the ghosts are dead. I’ve buried them!”

William Sargent as Thomas Leighton: “Jim, I need your help!”

Anderson: “Captain, I’m afraid we need your help.”

Kelley: “What are you so worried about, anyway? I find Jim generally knows what he’s doing.”

Shatner: “No... Logic is not enough... I’ve got to feel my way... Make absolutely sure.”

Shatner: “We’re dealing with a man’s life... No machine can make that decision.”

Nimoy: “I believe we have a match, Captain.”

Shatner: “But not an exact match, Mr. Spock.”

Shatner: “Aren’t you getting a little out of line, Mr. Spock? My personal business– ”

Nimoy, interrupting: “Is my personal business when it might interfere with the smooth operation of this ship.”

Shatner: “You think that happened??”

Nimoy: “It could happen.”

Shatner: “I don’t like anyone meddling in my private affairs – not even my 2nd in command.”

Kelley: “Jim! Spock’s simply trying–”

Shatner, interrupting: “I know what he’s trying to do, and I don’t like it!”

Kelley: “It’s his job... and you know it.”

Kelley: “Mr. Spock, the man on top walks a lonely street. The chain of command is often a noose.”

Nimoy: “Spare me your philosophical metaphors, Doctor.”

Shatner: Don’t throw away your life on a mistake!”

Music: A relatively mellow segue leading into a commercial break.

Nimoy: “I have no information on that, Captain.”

Anderson: “You are like your ship... powerful and not human... There is no mercy in you.”

Moss: “You’ve left me nothing!!”

Anderson screaming in anguish.

Moss: “The past... is a blank...”

Sfx: Phaser being discharged; man grunting in pain.

Nimoy: “I checked with the library computer, just as you did. I got the same information.”

Anderson: “You see, our schedule is like a chain... one break and it all collapses.”

Nimoy: “A good empirical research scientist... steady, reputable, occasionally brilliant.”

Moss: “I’m sorry to hear that.”

Anderson: “We’ve been stranded. It seems that our transportation has canceled-out on us.”

Shatner: “The test is virtually infallible.”

Shatner: “You’re not only in trouble. You’ve put me in trouble, too.”

Anderson: “I know how to use this, Captain!”

Moss: “There was a voice out of the past... Haunting me! Torturing me!”

Anderson: “I take it you’re the welcoming committee.”

William Shatner as Kirk: "Leave any bigotry in your quarters. There's no room for it on the bridge."

William Shatner: "Do I make myself clear?"

DeForest Kelley as Dr. McCoy: "You're discussing tactics. Do you realize what this really comes down to? Millions and millions of lives hanging on what this vessel does next."

Shatner: "Scotty ..."

James Doohan as Mr. Scott: "I've already talked to my engine room, sir. We'll get more speed out of her."

Ominous music.

DeForest Kelley: "Don't destroy the one named Kirk."

William Shatner: "Prepare to attack. All hands, battle stations."
