CHEKOV: You heard what he called the captain.
"The Trouble with Tribbles" Line-by-Line
- Thread starter CoveTom
- Start date
KORAX: Of course, I'd say that Captain Kirk deserves his ship. We like the Enterprise. We, we really do. That sagging old rust bucket is designed like a garbage scow. Half the quadrant knows it. That's why they're learning to speak Klingonese.
(There's a fight, of course. Scott's first right cross sends Korax flying over a table. After that, it's the Klingons versus Starfleet, with the barman beating a retreat and Jones taking the opportunity to help himself to drinks from the dispensing machine. Finally he decides to leave with his spoils and is about to enjoy his last glass when the Security guards rush in followed by the Barman, who takes the glass just before it reaches Jones' lips. So he takes another out of his pocket instead)
(Act Three)
Captain's Log, stardate 4525.6. A small... disturbance between the Klingon crew and members of the Enterprise crew has broken out aboard Space Station K7. I am forced to cancel shore leave for both ships.
(Briefing room, ten men are lined up. Chekov has a nice bruise on his cheek)
KIRK: I want to know who started it. I'm waiting. Freeman, who started the fight?

KIRK: All right. Chekov. I know you. You started it, didn't you?
KIRK: Who did?
KIRK: "I don't know, sir." I want to know who threw the first punch. (no one else answers) All right. You're all confined to quarters until I find out who started it. Dismissed. (the men file out) Scotty, not you. You were supposed to prevent trouble, Mister Scott.
KIRK: Mister Scott?
SCOTT: They insulted us, sir.
