"Arena" Line-by-Line

Kirk: Faked. All this happened several days ago. (to a man in a yellow shirt) Lang, over there. Look for survivors. Kelowitz, (blue shirt) that way. (to the red shirt) O'Herlihy, stick with me.
 
Kirk: Come on, Bones.

Captain's log, Stardate 3045.6 The Enterprise has responded to a call from Earth observation outpost on Cestus III. On landing, we have discovered that the outpost has been destroyed.
 
Finishing Bones' lines..

(They run to a lone survivor amongst a tangle of wreckage)

McCoy: Careful, careful. Shock, radiation burns, internal injuries for certain. He's in a bad way, Captain.

Kirk: Keep him alive, Bones. I want to know what's been happening here.
 
O'Herlihy is vaporized by weapons fire. Explosions are heard in the area.

Kirk: Cover! Kirk to Enterprise. Lock on transporters, beam us up.
 
[Bridge]

Sulu: Captain, we're coming under attack. Unidentified ship quartering in.

[Ruins]

Sulu [OC]: We can't beam you up. I've just rigged up defensive screens.
 
[Bridge]

Sulu: Firing phasers, Captain. The alien has screens up, too.
 
[Bridge]

Sulu: Are you under attack, Captain?

[Ruins]

Sulu [OC]: We could drop screens.
 
Finishing Kirk's lines again..

[Bridge]

Kirk [OC]: Kirk out.

[Ruins]

(More bombs rain down around them)

Kirk: If they lower those screens to beam us up, they'll be open to phaser attack.

Spock: We're hopelessly outnumbered here, Captain. It's those disruptors versus our hand phasers.
