And The Children Shall Lead Line-by-Line

[May 20]

MARY: He sees Triacus on the screen.

 

[Ghost of Christmas Future]

Tommy: He thinks he sees it.

 

[CaptVader]

UHURA: (seeing reality) Mister Sulu, the screen. We're out of orbit.

(Tommy influences her too. The planet is back.)

 

[May 20]

MARY: Will we reach Marcos Twelve soon?

 

[CaptVader]

TOMMY: Very soon.

 

[Ghost of Christmas Future]

[Engineering]

(Don influences the crew, then Scotty walks in.)

Scotty: When did we change course?

 

[May 20]

MAN: We haven't changed course.

 

[Ghost of Christmas Future]

Scotty: What do you mean, we haven't changed course? Look at your bridge control monitor.

 

[Rowdy Roddy McDowall]

MAN/OFFICER GULLIBEL: We're still in orbit, sir.

 

[May 20]

SCOTT: Have you gone completely blind? That's not orbiting position.

 

[CaptVader]

MAN/OFFICER GULLIBEL: Don't touch the controls, sir.

 

[May 20]

SCOTT: What the devil do you think you're doing?

 

[CaptVader]

MAN/OFFICER GULLIBEL: We must remain in this orbit till the bridge orders a change.

 

[Ghost of Christmas Future]

Scotty: You blind fool! Can't you see in front of you? We're not in orbit.

 

[May 20]

MAN: I will not disobey an order from the bridge.

 

[Ghost of Christmas Future]

Scotty: You are disobeying an order from the bridge. Now step aside.

 

[CaptVader]

MAN: You're losing control of yourself.

 

[Ghost of Christmas Future]

Scotty: Not yet.

(Scotty throws the Engineer aside to get to the controls, but the other one present grabs him. Finally the first man knocks Scotty out.)

 

[May 20]

[Kirk's quarters]

STARNES [on monitor]: I'm being influenced to do things that do not make sense. I even went so far as to call Starfleet Command to request a spaceship to be used as a transport. It was only when I couldn't tell them what I wanted to transport that I began to realise that my mind was being directed. I decided to send a dispatch to Starfleet, warning them. God forgive us. Must destroy ourselves! Alien upon us. The enemy from within. The enemy!

 

[Ghost of Christmas Future]

Spock: He never completed the entry, and the dispatch was never sent. Except for scenes of family life, games and picnics with the children, that is the complete record. Whatever overwhelmed them must have done so with incredible speed. Otherwise, the professor would have provided details of the experience. He was an excellent scientist and tireless in his pursuit of the truth.
