The Slaver Weapon Line-by-Line

[Orac]

Chuft-Captain: No gun sight. No obvious was to aim it.

 

[Athena28]

UHURA: Mr. Spock, I can move.

 

[Orac]

Sulu: So can I. The police web is off.

 

[Athena28]

SPOCK: The fifth setting seems to be an energy absorber. Fascinating. I had no idea the Slavers had such things.

 

[Orac]

Sulu: Mister Spock, we

 

[Athena28]

SPOCK: Yes. When I give the word, make for the shuttle. Remember to zigzag. Ready? Go.

 

[Orac]

(Sulu and Uhura run, while Spock jumps the Kzinti and grabs the weapon before following. Uhura gets shot again)

Flyer: Chuft-Captain, what happened?

 

[May 20]

CHUFT-CAPTAIN: I would rather not discuss it. Help me into the ship.

 

[Poltargyst]

SULU: (hiding) Mister Spock! I thought it was one of the aliens.

 

[Orac]

Spock: I have the weapon.

 

[Poltargyst]

SULU: They've got Uhura, and subspace radio. They can call for help from the Kzin planet if they think the weapon's worth it.

 

[mattman8907]

SPOCK: No, they cannot. Or rather, will not.

 

[Orac]

Sulu: Why?

 

[CaptVader]

Spock: Because I kicked Chuft-Captain. Consider. Chuft-Captain has been attacked by an herbivorous pacifist, an eater of leaves and roots. One who traditionally does not fight. And the ultimate insult, I left him alive. Chuft-Captain's honor is at stake. He must seek personal revenge before he can call for help.

 

[Orac]

Sulu: That gives us some time. You did plan it that way?

 

[CaptVader]

Spock: Of course.

 

[Orac]

Sulu: As long as you stay free, the Kzinti can't or won't do anything. But they could use Lieutenant Uhura as a bribe.

 

[CaptVader]

Spock: Agreed. However, to this point, we have not seen anything more powerful than equipment Starfleet already has.

 

[Athena28]

SULU: Yes. But I have a feeling, Mr. Spock. This weapon must have belonged to a spy, an espionage agent.

 

[Orac]

Spock: I acknowledge your expertise in the field of weapons, Mister Sulu, but I do not see how you can determine probable ownership.
