"Requiem for Methuselah" Line-by-Line

MCCOY: Mister Spock, I know you won't have one. Heaven forbid those mathematically perfect brain waves be corrupted by this all too human vice.
 
Spock: If I appear distracted, it is because of what I have seen. (picks up glass) I am close to experiencing an unaccustomed emotion.
 
Spock: Envy, none of these da Vinci paintings has ever been cataloged or reproduced. They are unknown works, all apparently authentic to the last brush stroke and use of materials. As undiscovered da Vinci’s, they would be priceless.
 
Spock: Most strange. A man of Flint's obvious wealth and impeccable taste scarcely needs to hang fakes. Yet my Tricorder analysis indicates that the canvas and pigments are of contemporary origin.
 
Kirk: Well, this could be what it seems to be, or it could be a cover, a setup, or even an illusion.
 
Kirk: Spock, at your earliest opportunity, take a full tricorder reading of our host. See if he's human. Kirk to Enterprise, Mr. Scott?
 
Kirk: Mr. Scott, run a full computer check on Mister Flint and on this planet, Holberg 917 G. Stand by with your results, I'll contact.
 
Kirk: Kirk out. Let's enjoy this brandy. It tastes real. (M4 glides in with a bag of purple crystals and puts it on the table then leaves) Easy. Bones?
