"Day of the Dove" Line-by-Line

KANG: This is Kang.

 

[Bridge]

KIRK: Kang, there's something important I must discuss with you.

 

KANG [OC]: I have captured your engineering section. I now control this ship's power and life-support systems.

[Engineering]

KANG [OC]: I have deprived all areas except our own. You will die of suffocation in the icy cold of space.

 

[Bridge]

(The power has gone off.)

KIRK: (dictating into PADD) 'The Enterprise is heading out of our galaxy, controlled by a mysterious alien somewhere aboard the ship. Engineering has been taken over by Klingons who have cut off life-support systems.' Mister Sulu.

 

SULU: Captain.

 

KIRK: Get down to emergency manual control. Try to protect our life-support circuits and auxiliary power.

 

SULU: Aye, Captain.

(Sulu leaves as Scott arrives.)

 

SCOTT: Sir. Chekov was right, Captain.

 

KIRK: Scotty, I'm glad you've come.

 

SCOTT: We should have left those fuzz-faced goons in the transporter. That's right where they belong.

 

KIRK: Scotty?

 

SCOTT: Non-existence! Now they can study the Enterprise, add our technology to theirs, change the balance of power. You've jeopardised the Federation!

 

KIRK: Scotty, take it easy.

 

SPOCK: Easy, Mr. Scott.

 

SCOTT: Keep your Vulcan hands off me. Just keep away! Your feelings might be hurt, you green-blooded half-breed!

 

SPOCK: May I say that I have not thoroughly enjoyed serving with humans? I find their illogic and foolish emotions a constant irritant.

 

SCOTT: Then transfer out, freak!

 

KIRK: Gentlemen! (intervenes as they nearly come to blows.) Spock! Scotty. Spock. Spock! Stop it! You're half human! What are we saying? What are we doing to each other?

 

Spock: Fascinating. The result of stress?

 

KIRK: We've been under stress before. It's never set us at each other's throats.
