"The Man Trap" Line-by-Line!

Kirk: Sturgeon, transport a sample of the plant to Mister Spock. We'll check if it is actually a Borgia Plant or something we don't understand. You got that Mister Spock?
 
Crater: Captain, considering the inescapable fact that you are a trespasser on my planet-
 
Kirk: Your complaint is noted. Look. Something we don't understand killed one of my men, it could prove to be a danger to you and Mrs Crater too.
 
CraterL We've been here for almost 5 years. If there's anything hostile here we would know about it, wouldn't we?
 
McCoy: Our crewman died of salt depletion. Sudden, total loss of it. Medically impossible by any standards.
 
Kirk: We're all aware of the need for salt on a hot and arid planet like this, Professor, but it's a mystery, and I don't like mysteries. They give me a bellyache and I've got a beauty right now.
 
Crater: Nancy and I started with 25 pounds, this is what we have left. Now what is so mysterious about that?
 
Kirk: One of the missions of the Enterprise is to protect human life in places like this, I'm going to have to ask you and Mrs Crater to stay aboard my ship until we find out what killed that crewman.
