"Where No Man Has Gone Before" Line-by-Line

Mitchell: Man cannot survive if a race of true espers is born. In time you'll understand that.
 
Spock: "Fighting the force field drained his strength, for a while at least. He could be handled now."

The music swells as Mitchell's eyes quickly silver over again. He slowly rises, deliberately closing in on the force field. Face-to-face with Kirk now.
 
We cut to the Enterprise rounding another orbit of Delta Vega. That globe never looked better in TOS than right here and now. A piece of Courage's theme that I still get chills listening to.

The Chief Engineer is slotting a control panel into place. Jestures to a crewman. He crosses to the Navigator position, sits down and hails the surface.

Scotty: "It fits like a glove, Captain."

Intercom voice on Kirk's communicator on the planet below

"Oh, did Mister Spock get the phaser rifle we sent down?"
 
Spock: He tried to get through the forcefield again. His eyes changed back faster, he didn't become as weak.
 
KIRK: Dr. Dehner doesn't think he's that dangerous. What makes you right and a trained psychiatrist wrong?
 
Spock: Because she feels, I don't. All I know is logic. In my opinion we'll be lucky if we can repair the ship and get away in time.
 
KIRK: If Mitchell gets out, at your discretion, Lee, if sitting here you think you're the last chance, I want you to hit that button.

Captain's Log, stardate 1313.3 Note commendations on Lieutenant Kelso and the engineering staff. In orbit above us, the engines of the Enterprise are almost fully regenerated. Balance of the landing party is being transported back up. Mitchell -- whatever he's become -- keeps changing, growing stronger by the minute.
 
Kirk: Kelso will be at the destruct button until the last minute. I think he knows that.
