Sulu
- [the crew is on a shuttlecraft pondering what their new starship will be]
- Sulu: ...I'm counting on the *Excelsior*.
- Scotty: The *Excelsior*? Why in God's name would you want that bucket of bolts?
- Kirk: A ship is a ship.
- Scotty: Whatever you say so.
- [pause]
- Scotty: Thy will be done.
- [the new starship USS *Enterprise* 1701-A emerges into view]
- Kirk: My friends.
- [pause]
- Kirk: We've come home.
- [Captain Kirk and his crew prepare to time warp in order to retrieve Humpback whales from the past; via sling-shooting around the sun]
- Kirk: [to himself] May fortune favor the foolish...
- [normal voice]
- Kirk: Warp speed, Mister Sulu.
- Sulu: Aye, sir. Warp speed.
- [the captured Klingon Vessel speeds up at warp speed]
- Sulu: [silence in the cockpit; nonchalantly] Warp two... warp three.
- Kirk: [uneasy] Steady as she goes...
- Sulu: Warp four...
- [a metallic reading plate slips off of Spock's desk. Spock reaches for it, but it falls into the grate. As the ship gets closer and closer to the sun, the interior of the Klingon vessel begins to vibrate gradually]
- Sulu: Warp five...
- [Another metallic reading plate slips off of Uhura's communications desk; clattering to the floor]
- Sulu: Warp six...
- [several objects fall to the floor noisily in the background as the ship's alarms go off]
- Sulu: Warp seven... warp eight...
- Chekov: Sir... heat shields at maximum!
- Sulu: [over the alarms] Warp NINE! Nine point two, Nine point three...
- Kirk: [over the noise] We need to breakaway speed.
- Sulu: [literally shouting over the alarms] Nine point five, Nine point six, Nine point seven, Nine point eight...
- [a screen bursts into shatters due to the pressure from the sun; Uhura screams. Kirk, Chekov, McCoy and Spock immediately turn their heads toward Uhrua's direction]
- Cmdr. Uhura: [over the noise] I'm all right. I'm fine...
- [Kirk lets out a sigh of relief; steam hisses as the ceiling cracks; the window shows that they are getting really close to the sun]
- Kirk: [shouts] NOW MISTER SULU!
- [the ship successfully maneuvers around the sun]
