Star Trek (2009) Line-by-Line Version 2.0

Finishing:

Chekov: Transport in 5, 4, 3, 2 (transport begins but side of mountain gives way, making Amanda fall and not make transport)
 
Amanda looks at Spock, knowing that she will not make it. The ground under her collapses. Amanda Screams.

Spock: MOTHER!
 
Spock, Sarek and other Vulcans beam in. No one can say a word, Spock looks at the empty transporter pad that should have had his mother standing on it.

The Black Hole grows, eating away at Vulcan until it is completely gone, the black hole seals and The Enterprise moves away at impulse.

Spock:Acting Captain's log, Ftardate 2258.42. We have had no word from Captain Pike. I have therefore classified him as a hostage of the war criminal known as Nero. Nero, who has destroyed my home planet and most of its 6 billion inhabitants. While the essence of our culture has been saved by the elders who now reside upon this ship, I estimate no more than 10,000 have survived. I am now a member of an endangered species.
 
(Spock walks to turbolift and enters. Uhura follows him in and stops the lift.)

Uhura: I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. (hugs and kisses Spock) What do you need? Tell me. Tell me.
 
Spock tries to keep his composure. He reactivates the turbolift.

Spock: I need everyone to continue performing admirably.
 
(*Switches to the Narada and Nero's interrogation of Pike*)

NERO: You must have a lot of questions for me. I have just ONE for you.
 
(Actually):

Nero:...I need the subspace frequencies of Starfleet's border protection grids...specifically those surrounding Earth.

(Pike gives him the Steel Eye)

Christopher...answer my question.

(Now):

Pike: No--you answer for the genocide you just commited against a peaceful planet!
 
Nero: No, I prevented genocide. In my time, where I come from, this is a simple mining vessel. I chose a life of honest labor to provide for myself and the wife who was expecting my child. I was off planet, doing my job while your Federation did nothing and allowed my people to burn while their planet broke in half. And Spock, he didn't help us. He betrayed us!
 
(finishing Pike's line)

Pike: No, you're confused. You've been misinformed. Romulus hasn't been destroyed. It's out there right now. You're blaming the Federation for something that hasn't happened.

then


Nero: It has happened! I watched it happen! I saw it happen! Don't tell me it didn't happen! And when I lost her, I promised myself retribution. And for 25 years, I planned my revenge against the Federation, and forgot what it was like to live a normal life. But I did not forget the pain. It's a pain that every surviving Vulcan now shares. My purpose, Christopher, is not to simply avoid the destruction of the home that I love, but to create a Romulus that exists free of the Federation. You see, only then will she be truly saved. That is why I will destroy all the remaining Federation planets, starting with yours.
 
Nero: You will give me the frequencies to disable Earth's defenses. (He pulls out a slug). Centaurian slugs. They latch onto your brainstem and release a toxin that will force you to answer. Frequencies please sir....
