"The Corbomite Maneuver" Line-by-Line!

Captain's Log, Stardate 1512.2 On our third day of star mapping, an unexplained cubical object blocked our vessels path. On the bridge, Mister Spock immediately ordered general alert. My location: Sickbay, quarterly physical check.
 
Kirk is lying on a pad, pumping panels back and forth from the wall.

Kirk: Just a few seconds more.
 
SPOCK [OC]: Undetermined. Whatever it is, it's blocking our way. When we move, it moves as well.
 
(The spinning cube Kirk supposedly already knew about appears on the monitor)

Some of the early episodes had the logs written to sound "real", as if they were written in hindsight after the mission was completed.

Moving on...



SPOCK [OC]: Negative. More some type of device.
 
MCCOY: Finally finished a physical on you, didn't I? What am I, a doctor or a moon shuttle conductor? If I jumped every time a light came on around here, I'd end up talking to myself.
 
[Corridor]

(Kirk walks along the corridor as crew members bustle about.)

SULU (over comm): All decks alert. (a beat) All decks alert.
