"Yesteryear" Line by Line

(Sarek leaves, and young Spock goes to his pet)
YOUNG SPOCK: I-Chaya. what if I'm not a true Vulcan like they say?
 
[Bedroom]

SPOCK: (dictating) Personal log, stardate 5373.9, subjective time. The timeline seems to have changed again. Yet I do not believe I have done anything to disrupt it. My memory is quite clear regarding the date my cousin saved my life, and it is tomorrow. The kahs-wan ordeal is an ancient rite of warrior days. When Vulcans turned to logic, they reasoned they must maintain the tests of courage and strength to keep pure logic from making them weak and helpless.
 
[Courtyard]

(Young Spock has snuck out, and his pet wants to go with him)

YOUNG SPOCK: No, I-Chaya, this is my own test. I have to do it alone. Stay.

(But the sehlat bounds after him anyway)
 
[Desert]

YOUNG SPOCK: I-Chaya, go home. You are too old and too fat for this. (whimper) That's how you always get around mother, but it does not work with me. Go home, I-Chaya.
 
SPOCK: Personal log. The boy Spock should be moving toward the Llangon Mountains. He, I had much to prove to myself. The personal ordeal upon which I embarked was meant to determine the course my life would take.
 
[Mountains]

(Up in the mountains, I-Chaya is protecting young Spock by taking on a green cat-like predator for him. But the cat kills the Sehlat. Then Spock leaps on the cat's back and neck-pinches it)

YOUNG SPOCK: I-Chaya, good boy.
