"How Sharper than a Serpent's Tooth" Line-by-Line

KUKULKAN: I was angered because I believed you had forgotten me. But one in your midst knows my name. You will be given one chance to succeed where your ancestors failed. Fail me again and all of your kind shall perish.
 
Kirk: Mister Walking Bear, how do you know who's aboard that ship?
 
WALKING BEAR: I am a Comanche, Captain. I've studied the histories of many ancient Earth peoples, especially my own. That ship out there bears a strong resemblance to a god in Mayan and Aztec legends, Kukulkan.
 
Spock: Captain, library computer confirms that Ensign Walking Bear is correct. The Mayas had a legend of a winged serpent god who came from the skies, bringing knowledge. Such legends were not uncommon among Earth's peoples, Captain.
 
KIRK: Then we could be dealing with the basis of all those legends. A space traveler who visited Earth in primitive times.
 
[Sickbay]

McCoy You don't deserve it, Yeoman, but you're getting a few day's bed rest.

(Then McCoy glows and vanishes)

(Scott vanishes from Engineering)
 
Uhura: Captain, Security reports that Mister Scott and Doctor McCoy have also disappeared.
 
Spock: Captain.

Captain's log, stardate 6063.5. First Officer Spock in temporary command. The Enterprise is the captive of an alien life form calling itself Kukulkan. Captain Kirk and three other officers have vanished. They most likely were transported by Kukulkan to his ship.
 
Kirk: Then that space probe that approached Earth must have been his. Listen.
