"The Menagerie" Line-by-Line

[CoveTom]

VINA: Or I can wear whatever you wish... be whatever you wish.

 

[Brian]

PIKE: So they can see how their specimen performs? They want to see how I react, is that it?

 

[LeadHead]

Vina: Don't you have a, a dream, something you've always wanted very badly?

 

[ClayinCA]

PIKE: Or do they do more than just watch me? Do they...feel with me too?

 

[CoveTom]

VINA: You can have whatever dream you want. I can become anything, any woman you, you've ever imagined. You can have anything you want in the whole universe. Let me please you.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

PIKE: Yes. Yes, you can please me. You can tell me about them. Is there any way I can keep them from probing my mind, from using my thoughts against me? Does that frighten you? Does that mean there is a way?

 

[Adm_Hawthorne]

Vina: You're a fool.

 

[Captain Robert April]

Well, since you're not real, there's no point in continuing this conversation.

 

[Leandar]

(Outside, the crew is setting up the laser to blast into the Talosian cave)

Number One: All circuits engaged, Mr. Spock.

 

[LeadHead]

Spock: (over comm) Standing by, Number One.

 

[Leandar]

Number One: Take cover!

 

[LeadHead]

Spock: (over comm) 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

 

[Leandar]

Number One: Increase to full power! Can you give us any more?

 

[LeadHead]

Spock: (over comm) Our circuits are beginning to heat. We'll have to cease power.

 

[CoveTom]

NUMBER ONE: Disengage! (a beat as the laser powers off) The top of that knoll should have been sheared off the first second.

 

[Leandar]

Boyce: Maybe it was. It's like I tried to explain in the briefing room, their power of illusion is so great, we can't be sure of anything we do, anything we see.

 

[LeadHead]

Pikes's Cell

Vina: Perhaps if you asked me some questions I could answer.

 

[CoveTom]

PIKE: How far can they control my mind?

 

[LeadHead]

Vina: If I tell you, then you pick some dream you've had and let me live it with you?

 

[Leandar]

Pike: Perhaps.
