"The Devil in the Dark'' Line-by-Line

Kirk: Of course. Well I hate to use the word but logically with those kind of odds, you might as well stay. But please stay out of trouble Mr. Spock.
 
Off camera

Scott: Scotty here Captain. My brilliant improvisation just gave up the ghost, it couldn't stand the strain.
 
[Reactor room]


VANDERBERG: Not all of them, Captain. I and some of my key personnel are staying.
 
[Main tunnel]

VANDERBERG [OC]: We'll be down to join you. (^^^finishing)
KIRK: We haven't enough phasers for you.
 
Vanderberg: Then we'll use clubs, we're not being chased away from here, we're staying!
 
KIRK: Good. Get everybody else aboard the Enterprise. The fewer people we have breathing the air down here, the longer the rest of us will be able to hold out. How much longer, Scotty?
 
Scotty: The reactor will go super-critical in about ten hours, Sir. You have that long to find the mechanism.
 
Kirk: We'll do our best. Start feeding us constant status reports Scotty, Vanderberg you and your crew assemble at level 23, checkpoint tiger. Kirk out.

Kirk and spock walk off frame.

At checkpoint tiger, Kirk speaking to an assembled group of miners:

Kirk: Team up with the Enterprise security personal, they are better armed than you are. Keep someone in sight at all times. Vanderberg, take two men, go thru that tunnel there, rendezvous with Commander Giotto. Appel and the rest of the men go through there, tie up with Lt. Osbourn's detail.
Mr. Spock and I will control the operation from a central location. That is all gentlemen.
 
^ finishing: They start to move through the tunnels.

SPOCK: Captain. Fresh readings within the hour in each of these tunnels.

KIRK: The chart says both of these tunnels converge a few thousand yards further. You take the left. I'll take the right.
