Court Martial Line-by-Line

[Soaraway]

SPOCK: Affirmative.

 

[May 20]

COGLEY: Why?

 

[Orac]

Spock: I personally programmed the computer for chess months ago. I gave the machine an understanding of the game equal to my own. The computer cannot make an error and assuming that I do not either, the best that could normally be hoped for would be stalemate after stalemate, and yet I beat the machine 5 times. Someone, either accidentally or deliberately, adjusted the programming and therefore the memory banks of that computer.

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

COGLEY: Could that have had an effect on the visual playback we saw?

 

[Orac]

Shaw: Object! The witness would be making a conclusion.

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

STONE: Sustained.

 

[Orac]

Cogley: Hypothetically, Mister Spock. Hypothetically, Miss Shaw. If what you suggest had been done, it would be beyond the capabilities of most men. Is that true?

 

[mattman8907]

SPOCK: Affirmative.

 

[Orac]

Cogley: What man aboard ship would it not be beyond?

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

SPOCK: The Captain, myself, and the records officer.

 

[mattman8907]

COGLEY: And at the moment, you have no records officer.

 

[Orac]

Spock: Affirmative. Until he was lost, our records officer was Lieutenant Commander Finney.

 

[Athena28]

COGLEY: Captain Kirk, will you tell the steps you took to find Mr. Finney after the storm?

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

KIRK: I instituted a Phase One search.

 

[Orac]

Cogley: Describe a phase one search.

 

[Athena28]

KIRK: It's a painstaking, thorough attempt in and around the ship to find a man who's presumably injured and unable to respond.

 

[May 20]

COGLEY: It presupposes, does it not, that a man wishes to be found?

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

KIRK: I beg your pardon?

 

[Athena28]

COGLEY: If you start a search for a man, you assume, don't you, that he wants to be found? He's not hiding?

 

[Orac]

Kirk: Yes.
