"Day of the Dove" Line-by-Line

[BlueStuff]

KANG: One of Kirk's tricks. Could he bypass this circuit? What power is it that supports our battle yet starves our victory? Power. Interrupt it at their main life-support couplings. Where?

 

[LeadHead]

Mara: Number 6 deck.

Kang nods.

Mara: (to a nearby Klingon) Come.

Mara and the other Klingon leave.

 

[HarryM]

[Bridge]

SPOCK: Alien detected in the engineering section, near reactor number three.

 

[mach7]

KIRK: Let's go.
(Kirk and Spock, armed with swords, leave the bridge.)

[Corridor]

(The weird light hides as Chekov comes along. He hides, then kills the Klingon and takes Mara prisoner.)
CHEKOV: You don't die yet. You're not human, but you're very beautiful. Very beautiful.
(He rips her top and covers her mouth. Kirk comes along in the nick of time.)

 

[HarryM]

KIRK: Chekov!

(He hauls him off Mara and slaps him twice, knocking him out.)

 

[mach7]

SPOCK: Jim, he's not responsible.

 

[HarryM]

KIRK: What have I done? (to Mara) There's an alien entity aboard the ship. It's forcing us to fight. We don't want to. We don't know what its motive is. We're trying to find out. You must help us. Take me to Kang. A temporary truce, that's all I ask. Spock, take her.

(Spock and Mara leave)

KIRK: Chekov. Chekov. (picks him up) Is this what's in store for us, from here on in? Violence, hatred.

 

[mach7]

(It's very busy. Kirk carries in Chekov, followed by Spock and Mara.)
MCCOY: Brain waves show almost paranoid mania. What happened?

 

[HarryM]

KIRK: He lost control. So did I. We're becoming animal warriors. Let's go, Spock.

 

[mach7]

MCCOY: Orderly. Jim. Johnson's heart wound is almost healed. Same with the other casualties. Sword wounds in the vital organs, massive trauma, shock. They're all healing at a fantastic rate.

 

[BlueStuff]

SPOCK: It would appear that the entity wants us alive.

 

[HarryM]

KIRK: Why? So we can fight, and fight, and keep coming back for more like some bloody coliseum? What's next, the roar of crowds?

 

[BlueStuff]

SPOCK: Perhaps human and Klingon psychologies and combat capabilities are being tested by an alien with designs on both powers.

 

[HarryM]

MCCOY: Gentlemen, if we are pawns, you're looking at one who is extremely sorry.

 

[BlueStuff]

SPOCK: I understand, Doctor. I, too, felt a brief surge of racial bigotry. Most distasteful.

 

[HarryM]

KIRK: Let's find the alien. (to Mara) You come with us. Maybe we can prove to you that it exists.

[Corridor]

(The weird light is up ahead of them and glowing red.)

KIRK: What is it?

 

[BlueStuff]

SPOCK: Totally unfamiliar.

 

[HarryM]

KIRK: (to entity) What do you want? What are you doing here?

 

[BlueStuff]

JOHNSON: Reporting for duty, sir.
