The Immunity Syndrome Line-by-Line

[May 20]

KIRK: This thing, this cell, this virus. It's eleven thousand miles long, and it's one cell. When it grows into millions, we'll be the virus invading its body.

 

[mattman8907]

MCCOY: Now, isn't that a thought? Here we are, antibodies of our own galaxy, attacking an invading germ. It would be ironic indeed if that were our sole destiny, wouldn't it?

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

KIRK: Antibodies. (pats McCoy's cheek) Antibodies! (goes to desk monitor) Bridge.


[one of my fave lines, and deliveries, of the episode ]

 

[Athena28]

SCOTT : Scott here, sir.

 

[mattman8907]

KIRK: Scotty, how much power do we have left?

 

[sekundant]

[Bridge]

SCOTT: We're down to forty three percent, sir. We're slipping a bit against the pull that beastie's putting on us.

[Kirk's quarters]

SCOTT [OC]: We can't last more than forty five minutes at this rate of decline. Less, if I have to apply more thrust.

 

[May 20]

KIRK: What would happen if you diverted all remaining power to the shields, except for impulse power, keep that in reserve?

 

[mattman8907]

[Bridge]

SCOTT: Cut the engine thrust? We'd be sucked into that thing like being caught in a wind tunnel, sir.

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

[Kirk's quarters]

KIRK: Exactly. Prepare to divert power on my signal. Kirk out.
(Kirk leans against the monitor, tired. McCoy scans him.)
KIRK: Have you got something to say?

 

[sekundant]

MCCOY: Technically, no. Medically, yes. Between the stimulants and the pressure, I would suggest you try to stay off your feet for a few minutes.

 

[May 20]

KIRK: I don't have a few minutes, Bones. Maybe none of us do. Let's go.

[Bridge]

KIRK: All hands, this is the captain. We're going to enter the body of the organism rather abruptly, I would think. Damage control parties stand by. All decks secure for collision. Kirk out.

KIRK: Ready, Scotty.

 

[mattman8907]

SCOTT: Switching power to shields. Impulse in reserve. Cutting thrust to zero, now!

 

[May 20]

KYLE: Impact five seconds.
(There's a big bump and people are thrown all over the place. Then there is calm.)

 

[mattman8907]

CHEKOV: We're through, sir.

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

KIRK: I believe everybody is aware of that, Mister Chekov.

 

[sekundant]

[Chekov's Arthur Dent moment ]

UHURA: Damage control parties report minimal damage, sir. Repairs are being initiated.

 

[May 20]

KIRK: Very good, Lieutenant.

 

[Athena28]

SCOTT: Captain, we've only 26% power reserves after entry.

 

[sekundant]

KIRK: Do we have impulse power, Scotty?

 

[May 20]

SCOTT: I saved all I could, sir, but I don't know whether we have enough to get back out again. Or time either.
