"I, Mudd" Line-by-Line!

[Orac]

Chekov: You know this man, Captain?

 

[Enterprise1981]

KIRK: Oh, do I know him. Harcourt Fenton Mudd, thief...

 

[Orac]

Mudd: Come now.

 

[LeadHead]

Kirk: Swindler and con man...

 

[Orac]

Mudd: Entrepreneur.

 

[LeadHead]

Kirk: ... Liar and rogue...

 

[mach7]

Mudd: Did I leave you with that impression?!?

 

[LeadHead]

Kirk: He belongs in jail, which I where I thought I left you, Mudd.

 

[KirkPicard]

MUDD: And thereby hangs a tale, yes. But look around you, Kirk. Quite a place, isn't it? I hope you're all going to enjoy it.

 

[LeadHead]

Kirk: Mudd, I want you trained android, Norman to deactivate the trigger relay and free my ship.

 

[Orac]

Mudd: I shall do that, Kirk, when I'm ready.

 

[mach7]

Kirk: I'm telling you now.

 

[Athena28]

MUDD: And I do the telling on this planet, Kirk, old boy. You do the listening.

 

[LeadHead]

Kirk: All right, I'll listen. What are you telling?

 

[Athena28]

MUDD: Merely that you might as well start enjoying yourselves. It's really a very, very nice place, and you're all going to be here quite probably for the rest of your lives.

 

[LeadHead]

Mudd laughs. Then after the commercial break...

Kirk: Harry Mudd, you're a liar and an outlaw an in deep trouble. I want navigational control restored and my ship released.

 

[Enterprise1981]

MUDD: Sorry. That'd be against the law. My law. Decreed by Mudd the First. Voted in by the resident population. Lovely, aren't they? You must admit, Kirk, that I still retain my eye for beauty. I decreed that I should always be surrounded by it, and my decrees always come to pass. I've had five hundred of them made up to attend me. All of them identical, beautiful, compliant, obedient.

 

[LeadHead]

^ that line was from earlier.

Mudd: Sorry. That'd be against the law. My law. Decreed by Mudd the First. Voted in by the resident population. Lovely, aren't they? You must admit, Kirk, that I still retain my eye for beauty. I decreed that I should always be surrounded by it, and my decrees always come to pass. I've had five hundred of them made up to attend me. All of them identical, beautiful, compliant, obedient.

Continuing forth...

Spock: Five hundred of the same model? That seems rather redundant.

 

[Enterprise1981]

MUDD: I have a fondness for this particular model, Mister Spock, which you, unfortunately, are ill-equipped to appreciate.

 

[LeadHead]

Kirk: All right, Harry, explain. How did you get here? We left you in custody after that affair on the Rigel mining planet.
