TUC Line-by-Line

[nil_jones]

JUDGE: It is the judgment of this court that the defendants are GUILTY as charged.

 

[LeadHead]

Worf: I wish to note, for the record that the evidence against my clients is entirely circumstantial. I beg the court to consider this, when pronouncing its sentence.

 

[nil_jones]

JUDGE: So noted. Captain James T. Kirk, Dr. Leonard McCoy, in the interest of fostering amity toward the forthcoming peace talks, the sentence of death has been commuted. (pause for crowd's outrage, and pounding of gavel.) It is the judgement of this court, that you be taken from this place, to the dilithium mines of Rura Penthe, there to spend the rest of your natural lives.

 

[LeadHead]

Uhura: Rura Penthe?!

 

[Leandar]

Chekov: Known throughout the galaxy as "the alien's graveyard."

 

[LeadHead]

Scotty: Why don't they just kill em and get it over with?

 

[Leandar]

Spock: Lieutenant. The torpedo hit once again, please.

 

[LeadHead]

^ Finishing
Spock: Hold.

Chekov: It is Enterprise. We fired.

 

[Leandar]

^^Frak!!

Scotty: That is not possible! All weapons visually accounted for! Sir.

 

[LeadHead]

Spock: An ancestor of mine maintained that "If you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth."

 

[Brian]

UHURA: What exactly does that mean?

 

[NCC-1701-B]

SPOCK: It means that if we cannot have fired those torpedoes, then someone else did.

 

[Brian]

SCOTTY: Well they dinna fire on themselves. There were no other ships present.

 

[NCC-1701-B]

Spock: (grasping at straws) There was an enormous neutron energy surge.

 

[Brian]

SCOTTY: Not from us!

 

[Sovereign_One]

Chekov: A neutron surge that big could only be produced by another ship.

 

[cooleddie74]

VALERIS: A Bird-of-Prey?

 

[Leandar]

^^Too early.

Uhura: Qo'no'S One?

 

[Sovereign_One]

Spock: Too far away. Very near us, possibly beneath us.

 

[Brian]

SCOTTY: If there were a ship beneath us, the Klingons would have seen it.
