''That Which Survives'' Line-By-Line

[Engineering]

(Scotty is trying to track down the source of his feeling, and a man in a red boiler suit keeps looking over his shoulder.)

Scotty: Watkins, check the bypass valve on the matter/antimatter reaction chamber. Make sure it's not overheating.
 
(Watkins goes off into an adjoining room and checks a console and some panels in there. Then he is confronted by Losira.)
WATKINS: Who are you?

LOSIRA: My name is not important. Yours is Watkins, John B. Engineer Grade four.
 
LOSIRA: Not correct. That is the emergency overload bypass, which engages almost instantaneously. A wise precaution, considering it takes the antimatter longer to explode once the magnetic flow fails. I am for you, Mister Watkins.
 
(But by the time Scott gets there, Watkins has screamed and Losira has turned sideways into a vertical line, then vanished.)
SCOTT: Oh, you poor lad. Scott to bridge. Scott to bridge.
 
SPOCK: Security alert, all decks. Female intruder, extremely dangerous. Security alert, all decks.
 
SULU: The basic substance of this planet is an alloy of diburnium-osmium. It couldn't have evolved naturally.
