Let That Be Your Last Battlefield Line-by-Line

[Orac]

Sulu: Tractor beams activated. We have it, sir.

 

[Kertrats47]

KIRK: Prepare to bring it aboard the hangar deck.

 

[Orac]

Sulu: Aye, sir.

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

KIRK: Lt. Uhura, send a security team to the pressure doors on the hangar deck.

 

[Kertrats47]

UHURA: Aye, sir.

 

[Orac]

Kirk: Mister Spock, come with me. Scotty.

{Scotty takes the conn.}

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

[Hangar deck]

(As the shuttlecraft comes in for a landing, we hear...)

SULU [OC]: Hangar doors open and clearing for entrance of shuttlecraft. Shuttlecraft approaching hangar deck.

[Turbolift]

(Kirk and Spock, en route to the hangar deck, hear...)

SULU [OC]: Bridge to Captain Kirk.

 

[mattman8907]

KIRK: Kirk here.

 

[Orac]

Sulu {OC}: Hangar doors closed, and hangar deck is pressurizing.

 

[mattman8907]

KIRK: Acknowledged.
(As the shuttlecraft turns around, NCC 1701/7 is clearly emblazoned on it. Careless special effects.)

 

[Kertrats47]

[Outside hangar deck]

KIRK: (to security men) We'll enter as soon as the doors open. Go on my command.
(The doors open, and a man falls to the floor. He is white on the right side, and black on the left.)

(As the shuttlecraft turns around, NCC 1701/7 is clearly emblazoned on it. Careless special effects.)

Let's not be too harsh, they were plagued by a diminishing budget at this time and had to use a lot of stock footage. Hence, the "invisible" ship later in the episode!

 

[Orac]

[Later in Sickbay]

{Bones gives the patient an injection.}

Spock: You are certain, Doctor, that this pigmentation is the natural condition of this individual?

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

McCOY: That's what I've recorded, Mr. Spock.

 

[Athena28]

KIRK: Do we have any knowledge of a planet that could have produced such a race of beings?

 

[Orac]

Spock: Negative, Captain.

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

KIRK: Bones, what do you make of it?

 

[May 20]

MCCOY: Well, I can't give you any specific circumstance that will explain him.

 

[Kertrats47]

KIRK: And judging by looking at him, we know at the very least he is the result of a very dramatic conflict. Spock?

 

[Orac]

Spock: There is no theory, Captain, from the basic work of Mendel to recent nucleotide studies, which would explain our captive. All gradations of colour from black to brown, to yellow to white are genetically predictable. We must therefore conclude that this alien is that often unaccountable rarity, a mutation, one of a kind.

 

[May 20]

MCCOY: Yes, I would agree. That's the case here.
