- [their first look at the USS Excelsior]
- Uhura: Would you look at that.
- Kirk: My friends, the great experiment: The Excelsior. Ready for trial runs.
- Sulu: She's supposed to have transwarp drive.
- Scotty: Aye. And if my grandmother had wheels, she'd be a wagon.
- Kirk: Come, come, Mr. Scott. Young minds, fresh ideas. Be tolerant.
- Sulu: [33:08] The word, sir?
- Kirk: The word is no. I am therefore going anyway.
- Sulu: You can count our help, sir.
- Kirk: Thank you, Mr. Sulu, I'll need it.
- Chekov: Shall I alert Dr. McCoy?
- Kirk: Please. He has a long journey ahead of him.
- Scotty: [studying the Klingon Bird-of-Prey's helm] Where's the damn antimatter inducer?
- Chekov: This?... no, *this*!
- Scotty: That or nothing.
- Sulu: If I read this right, sir, we have full power.
- Kirk: [exasperated] Go, Sulu!
- Sulu: One minute to space doors.
- McCoy: Are you just gonna walk through them?
- Kirk: Calm yourself, Doctor.
- Kirk: [gathers himself after David's murder] Mr. Sulu, what is the crew compliment of a Bird-of-Prey?
- Sulu: About a dozen officers and men.
- Kirk: With some of them on the planet... I swear to you, we're not finished yet. Bones, you and Sulu to the transporter room. The rest of you with me, we have a job to do.
- Sulu: Keeping you busy?
- Prison Guard #2: [getting to his feet, he towers over Sulu] Don't get smart, tiny.
- Prison Guard #1: [entering Bones' cell] Admiral, Starfleet...
- Kirk: This man is sick. Here, take a look.
- [as the guard gets closer, Kirk knocks him out]
- Sulu: [restraining the second guard as Kirk and Bones come out] Side elevator. Agents on their way up.
- [flipping the guard over and zapping the control station]
- Sulu: Don't call me tiny.
- Sulu: Admiral, what's gonna happen to the Enterprise?
- Kirk: She's to be decommissioned.
- Chekov: Will we get another ship?
- Kirk: I can't get an answer. Starfleet is up to its brass in a galactic conference. No one has time for those who want to stand and wait.
- Sulu: [1:14:17] Klingon bird of prey, and she's arming torpedoes!
