"The Changeling" Line-by-Line

SPOCK: Nomad, I have arranged the tapes for flash feed at the top speed of the computer. Please do not draw the information faster than the machine's capacity.
 
NOMAD: Proceed. (a few moments later) Creator, the unit Scott is a primitive structure. Insufficient safeguards built in. Breakdown can occur from many causes. Self-maintenance systems of low reliability.
 
Kirk: Doctor McCoy will show you.

(McCoy and Nomad enter the turbolift,)

Kirk: Security. I want a twenty four hour, two man armed surveillance on Nomad. Pick it up in Sickbay.
 
[Sickbay]

(Nomad and McCoy are standing by the biobed with Scott's body on it, and Chapel is scanning it. Kirk and Spock enter.)
CHAPEL: No reaction, Doctor.
 
(Suddenly, a heart beat, and the indicators rise into the green area.)
SCOTT: What are the lot of you staring at me for?
 
NOMAD: The unit Scott is repaired. It will function correctly if your information to me was correct.
 
MCCOY: I'd like to check it out, if you don't mind. A man is not just a biological unit that you can patch together.
