- Agmar: There is a weapons deactivator in effect here. Your destructive machines will have no effect.
- Spock II: To persist in this behavior, Captain, is to negate the eloquence of your previous argument. May I suggest a more constructive way?
- Captain James T. Kirk: Captain's log: Stardate 5554.4. The Enterprise has been ordered to survey a new planet recently discovered at the periphery of the galaxy.
- Captain James T. Kirk: What is that thing?
- Lt. Hikaru Sulu: It's a mobile plant. When it stops, its roots bore back into the ground. They're all over the place. I think it likes me.
- Captain James T. Kirk: We always encourage our officers to make friends with the natives.
- Captain James T. Kirk: Bones?
- Doctor McCoy: One of my great-great-granddaddies way back had the finest garden in the south. Had to scramble around a little bit to find the materials, but I've got his recipe brewing now.
- Agmar: But come, you're worried about your friend. I will show you he is safe and in good hands.
- [turns to lead the way]
- Lt. Hikaru Sulu: Just like that, Captain?
- Captain James T. Kirk: So it would appear, Mr. Sulu. All the same, keep that bag handy.
- Mr. Spock: I would suggest Dr. Keniclius remain on Phylos with my duplicate. The considered efforts of both scientists may yet achieve a rebirth of the Phylosian civilization and enable them to contribute to the Federation.
- Spock II: My thoughts exactly, Mr. Spock.
- Mr. Spock: So one might assume, Mr. Spock.
- [last lines]
- Captain James T. Kirk: By the way, Mr. Sulu, any chance of teaching me that body throw? Could come in handy sometime.
- Lt. Hikaru Sulu: I don't know, sir. It isn't just physical, you know. You have to be... inscrutable.
- Captain James T. Kirk: Inscrutable? Sulu, you're the most scrutable man I know.
- Lieutenant Sulu: I hope these things work.
- Scott: Oh, the equipment's guaranteed, but I have my doubts about the stuff inside.
- Commander Spock: [conducting a Vulcan mind-meld] My mind to your mind, my thoughts to your thoughts.
- Commander Spock: Infinite diversity in infinite combinations... symbolizing the elements that create truth and beauty.
- Doctor McCoy: Now just a minute. I can't let you, whatever you are, inject him with some alien... dewdrop!
- Doctor McCoy: There used to be a story about a modern Diogenes wandering the galaxy looking for someone special.
- Captain James T. Kirk: Someone "special." A perfect specimen, perhaps. Yes, I've heard it, too.
- Doctor McCoy: It couldn't be Keniculus. He's be over two-hundred-and-fifty years old!
- Captain James T. Kirk: Not if he cloned a new copy of himself every so often to carry on the search. Remember, he said he was Keniculus 5.
- Scott: A strange way to handle aliens.
- Captain James T. Kirk: These are strange aliens we're fighting.
- Lieutenant Sulu: No wonder we couldn't find Spock. The walls are six-hundred times denser than lead.
- Commander Spock: I am pleasantly surprised at your capacity for deductive reasoning, Captain. When you are not being bellicose, there appears to be no end to your arsenal of formidable talents.
