Amok Time quotes: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ SPOCK: (to Nurse Chapel) "What is this? If I wanted anything, I would have asked for it." SPOCK: (to Kirk, re Chapel) "It is undignified for a woman to play servant to a man who is not hers." KIRK: "I suppose most of us overlook the fact that even Vulcans aren't indestructable." (beat, Kirk leaves) SPOCK: "No. (beat) We're not." KIRK: "Mr. Spock. Come with me please. (both enter turbolift) Deck five. You changed course for Vulcan Mr. Spock. Why?" SPOCK: "Changed the course?" KIRK: "Do you deny it?" SPOCK: "No. No, by no means, Captain. It is quite possible." KIRK: "Then why did you do it?" SPOCK: "Captain, I ac- accept on your word that I did it; but I do not know why, nor do I re- remember doing it. Captain lock me away; I do not wish to be seen. I ca- cannot-- no Vulcan could, explain further." KIRK: "I'm trying to help you Spock." SPOCK: "Ask me no further questions, I will not answer." KIRK: "I order you to report to the sickbay." SPOCK: "Sickbay?" KIRK: "Complete examination, McCoy's waiting." SPOCK: "My orders were to report to sickbay, Doctor. I have done so. And now, I'll go to my quarters." McCOY: "My orders were to give you a thorough physical. And in case you hadn't noticed, I have to answer to the same commanding officer that you do. Come on Spock, yield to the logic of the situation." SPOCK: "(softly) Very well then. (normal) Examine me. For all the good it will do either of us." McCOY: "If you don't get him to Vulcan within a week, eight days at the outside, he'll die. He'll die Jim." KIRK: "Why (beat) must he die? Why within eight days? Explain." McCOY: "I don't know." KIRK: "You keep saying that. Are you a Doctor or aren't you?" KIRK: (to Spock) "You've been called the best first officer in the fleet. That's an enormous asset to me. If I have to lose that first officer, I want to know why." SPOCK: "How do Vulcans choose their mate? Haven't you ever wondered?" KIRK: "I guess the rest of us assume that it was done quite logically." KIRK: "But you're not a fish, Mr. Spock. You're--" SPOCK: "No. Nor am I a man. I'm a Vulcan. I had hoped I would be spared this. But the ancient drives are too strong. Eventually they catch up with us; and we are driven by forces we cannot control; to return home and take a wife, or die." KIRK: "I haven't heard a word you've said. And, I'll get you to Vulcan, somehow." McCOY: "You can't go off to Vulcan against Starfleet orders. You'll be busted--" KIRK: "And I can't let Spock die, can I Bones? And he will, if we go to Altair. I owe him my life a dozen times over; isn't that worth a career? He's my friend." SPOCK: (to Nurse Chapel) "I had a most startling dream. You were trying to tell me something. But I couldn't hear you. It would be illogical for us to protest against our natures, don't you think?" SPOCK: (to McCoy) "It is obvious that you surmised my problem, Doctor. My compliments on your insight." T'PRING:"Spock, it is I." SPOCK: "T'Pring. Parted from me and never parted. Never and always touching and touched. We meet at the appointed place." T'PRING:"Spock. Parted from me and never parted. Never and always touching and touched. I await you." (T'Pring's image fades from viewer) UHURA: "She's lovely Mr. Spock. Who is she?" SPOCK: "She is T'Pring. My wife." McCOY: (to Kirk) "Yeah. 'Hot as Vulcan'. Now I understand what that phrase means." SPOCK: (to Kirk and McCoy) "A ceremony, while we were but seven years of age. Less than a marriage; but more than a betrothel. One touches the other; in order to feel each other's thoughts. In this way our minds were locked together so at the proper time we would both be drawn to Koon-ut-kal-if-fee." KIRK: "Bones, do you know who that is? (beat) T'Pau. The only person to ever turn down a seat on the Federation council." McCOY: "T'Pau? Officiating at Spock's wedding?" KIRK: "He never mentioned that his family was this important?" T'PAU: "Thee names these outworlder's friends. How does thee pledge their behaviour?" SPOCK: "With my life, T'Pau." T'PAU: (to Kirk and McCoy) "What thee are about to see, comes down from the time of the beginning; without change. This is the Vulcan heart. This is the Vulcan soul. This is our being." T'PAU: "Do not attempt to speak with him, Kirk. He is deep in the Plak Tow, the Blood Fever. He will not speak with thee again, until he has passed through what it to come. If thee wishes to depart, thee may leave now." KIRK: "We'll stay." T'PAU: "Spock chose his friends well." T'PAU: "Kirk. T'Pring is within her rights. But our laws and customs are not binding on thee. Thee are free to delicline with no harm on thyself." SPOCK: "T'Pau" T'PAU: "Thee speaks." SPOCK: "My friend does not understand." T'PAU: "The choice has been made, Spock. It is up to him now." SPOCK: "He does not know. I will do what I must, T'Pau. But not with him. His blood does not burn. He is my friend." T'PAU: "It is said, thy Vulcan blood is thin. Art thee Vulcan, or art the Human?" SPOCK: "I burn T'Pau. My eyes are flame. My heart is flame. Thee has the power, T'Pau, in the name of my fathers. Forbid. For-bid. T'Pau, I plead with thee. I beg." SPOCK: "Thee has prided thyself on thy Vulcan heritage. It is decided." McCOY: (to Kirk) "In this climate? If the heat doesn't get you, the thin air will." KIRK: "What do you mean, 'If both survive'?" T'PAU: "This combat is to the death." T'PAU: "The air is the air. What can be done?" McCOY: "Get your hands off of him, Spock. He's finished. (beat) He's dead." McCOY: "As strange as it may seem, Mr. Spock, you're in command now. Any orders?" SPOCK: "Yes. I'll follow you up, in a few minutes. You will instruct Mr. Chekov to plot course for the nearest starbase, where I must surrender myself to the authorities." SPOCK: "I see no logic in preferring Stonn over me." T'PRING:"You have become much known among our people Spock, almost a legend. And as the years went by, I came to know that I did not want to be the consort of a legend. But by the laws of our people I could only divorce you by the Kalifee." SPOCK: (to Stonn) "After a time, you may find that having is not so pleasing a thing after all as wanting. It is not logical; but it is often true." SPOCK: "Live long, T'Pau, and prosper." T'PAU: "Live long and prosper, Spock." SPOCK: "I shall do neither. I have killed my Captain and my friend." SPOCK: "There can be no excuse for the crime of which I am guilty. I intend to offer no defense. Furthermore, I shall order Mr. Scott to take immediate command of this vessel." KIRK: "Don't you thing you better check with me first?" SPOCK: "Captain!!! JIM!!! (beat) I'm pleased to see you Captain. You seem uninjured. I am at something of a loss to understand it, however." SPOCK: "Blame McCoy." SPOCK: (to Kirk and McCoy) "When I thought I'd killed the Captain, I found I'd lost all interest in T'Pring. The madness was gone." McCOY: "There's just one thing, Mr. Spock. You can't tell me that when you first saw Jim alive, that you weren't on the verge of giving us an emotional scene that would have brought the house down." SPOCK: "Merely my quite logical relief that Starfleet had not lost a highly proficient Captain." KIRK: "Yes Mr. Spock. I understand." SPOCK: "Th |
