MARLA: Oh, please, Khan, don't ask me.

 

[LeadHead]

Khan: Leave me then. Go, I say!

 

[Alienesse]

MARLA: No. I promise. I'll do anything you ask.

 

[LeadHead]

In the Briefing room, a picture of Khan is up on the main screen.

Kirk: Name, Khan Noonien Singh.

 

[Alienesse]

SPOCK: From 1992 through 1996, absolute ruler of more than a quarter of your world. From Asia through the Middle East.

 

[LeadHead]

McCoy: The last of the tyrants to be overthrown.

 

[Alienesse]

SCOTTY: I must confess, gentlemen. I've always held a sneaking admiration for this one.

 

[Admiral Shran]

Kirk: He was the best of the tyrants and the most dangerous. They were supermen in a sense: stronger, braver, certainly more ambitious, more daring.

[LeadHead]

Spock: And as little freedom.

 

[Brian]

MCCOY: No wars until he was attacked.

 

[LeadHead]

KHAN: I'm sorry, Captain. I was lost in thought. My door. Locked from outside, a guard posted.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

KIRK: Unusual treatment for Khan Noonien Singh.

 

[Brian]

KHAN: Excellent. You identified me with your computer system, I imagine.
