"Requiem for Methuselah" Line-by-Line

Kirk: (into Communicator) Kirk to Enterprise. Lock Phasers onto these coordinates.
 
Kirk: Mister Flint, if anything happens to us, four deaths and the my crew comes down and takes that Ryetalin.
 
Spock: Mister Flint, unless you are certain, I would suggest you refrain from a useless experiment.
 
MCCOY: Have you ever seen a victim of Rigelian fever? They die in one day. The effects are like bubonic plague.
 
Flint: Constantinople, summer 1334. It marched through the streets, the sewers. It left the city by ox cart, by sea, to kill half of Europe. The rats, rustling and squealing in the night as they, too, died. The rats.
 
Flint: I am. The Enterprise, a plague ship. You have two hours, at the end of which time you will leave.
 
FLINT: M4 will gather the ryetalyn which you need. (the device leaves) Permit me to offer you more comfortable surroundings.
 
Flint: My planet is surrounded by screens which create the impression of lifelessness. A protection against the curious, the uninvited.
 
Flint: Except for M4, which serves as butler, housekeeper, gardener and guardian.
 
(Rayna watches.)

McCoy continues: The Creation lithographs by Taranullus of Centauri Seven. That's one of the rarest book collections in the galaxy, spanning centuries.
