''That Which Survives'' Line-By-Line

Sulu: How can such people be, Captain? Such evil and she's so, so beautiful.

 

KIRK: Yes, I know. (even though it happens in Greek mythology and in spy stories)

 

[Bridge]


UHURA: Security sweeps of all decks are negative, Mister Spock. No evidence of intruder.

 

SPOCK: Very well. Cancel Red Alert but maintain increased security.

 

UHURA: Aye, sir. All decks, cancel Red Alert. Maintain increased security.

(Spock: Are you repeating what I'm saying?)

 

SPOCK: Please update our subspace report to Starfleet to include security search, results negative.

 

UHURA: How did she get off the ship, sir?

 

SPOCK: Presumably the same way she got on.

 

UHURA: Yes, sir. Mister Spock, what are the chances of the captain and the others being alive?

 

SPOCK: Lieutenant, we are not engaged in gambling. We are proceeding in the only logical way to return to the place they were last seen, and factually ascertain whether or not they still live.

 

UHURA: Yes, Mister Spock.

 

RAHDA: Mister Spock, speed is increased to warp 8.8.

 

SCOTT: Bridge to Engineering.

 

SCOTT: Scotty here. I see it.

SCOTTY: It's a power surge. I'm working on it. Reduce speed until I locate the trouble.

[Bridge]
SPOCK: Very well. Reduce speed to warp seven.

 

RAHDA: Aye, sir. Warp seven. Mister Spock, our speed has increased to warp eight point nine and still climbing.

 

SPOCK: Bridge to Engineering. Negative effect on power reduction. Speed is still increasing.

 

[Engineering]

SCOTT: Aye, Mister Spock, and I found out why. The emergency bypass control of the matter-antimatter integrator is fused.

[Bridge]

SCOTT [OC]: It's completely useless. The engines are running wild. There's no way to get at them. We should reach maximum overload in about fifteen minutes.

 

[Bridge]


SPOCK: I would calculate 14.87 minutes, Mister Scott.

 

[Engineering]

SCOTT: Those few seconds will not make any difference, Mister Spock, because you and I and the rest of the crew will no longer be here to bandy it back and forth.

[Bridge]

SCOTT [OC]: This thing is going to blow up

[Engineering]

SCOTT: And there's nothing in the universe can stop it.
