And The Children Shall Lead Line-by-Line

[Athena28]

KIRK: Auxiliary control, my Vulcan friend. This ship is off course.

[Auxiliary control]

KIRK: Scotty. I want you to override the bridge navigation system and plot a course for Starbase 4.

 

[May 20]

SCOTT: I can't do that, sir.

 

[CaptVader]

KIRK: Why not?

 

[May 20]

SCOTT: These are very sensitive instruments. I will not have you upset their delicate balance. We would all be lost, forever lost.
(Spock sees Don)
Go away now. Go away or we'll kill you.

 

[Ghost of Christmas Future]

Kirk: Scotty, listen to me. The Enterprise has been invaded by alien beings. Its destination is Marcos. If we take it there, millions will die the way they died at Triacus.

(Kirk tries to jump the engineer at the controls, but he and Spock are forced away. They retreat.)

[Corridor]

Kirk: No, I'm all right, Spock. My beast is finished. It won't return.

 

[CaptVader]

SPOCK: Captain, so long as the children are present, there is danger. They are the carriers.

 

[May 20]

KIRK: Spock, they're not the alien beings. They're children being misled.

 

[CaptVader]

SPOCK: They are followers. Without followers, evil cannot spread.

 

[Nude Colonel Stuart]

KIRK (with semi-amusement) They're.....CHILDREN.

 

[CaptVader]

SPOCK: Captain, the four hundred and thirty men and women on board the Enterprise and the ship itself are endangered by these children.

 

[May 20]

KIRK: They don't understand the evil that they're doing.

 

[Ghost of Christmas Future]

Spock: Perhaps that is true, but the evil that is within them is spreading fast, and unless we can find a way to remove it

 

[CaptVader]

KIRK: We'll have to kill them.

 

[Ghost of Christmas Future]

(Tommy and Chekov arrive with two guards.)
Captain Kirk.

 

[CaptVader]

KIRK: What is it, Ensign?

 

[May 20]

CHEKOV: I have been instructed to place you and Mister Spock under arrest.

 

[CaptVader]

KIRK: By whose order?

 

[Ghost of Christmas Future]

Chekov: Starfleet Command, sir.

 

[CaptVader]

KIRK: Where did you hear this order, Ensign? Now, listen to me. This order is false. I want you and your men to return to their stations.

 

[Ghost of Christmas Future]

Chekov: I'm sorry, but I must insist you and Mister Spock come with me to the detention section.
