Captain Christopher Pike
- Captain Christopher Pike: That damn holographic comm system. Tell Louvier to rip out the entire system. From now on, we'll communicate using good old-fashioned view screens. Truth is, I never liked the holograms. They look too much like ghosts.
- Number One: [amused] Hm.
- Captain Christopher Pike: He told you I'd say that.
- Number One: No. I told him.
- Michael Burnham: I understand your first officer is on her way to Spacedock. Was her visit informative?
- Captain Christopher Pike: Number One is very resourceful. People have a tendency to end up owing her favors.
- Saru: You will need my help.
- Captain Christopher Pike: Saru, Commander Burnham can handle this. There's no reason to risk your health any further.
- Saru: I am dying, Captain, but I am most certainly not dead.
