- EM-3-Green: We'll all die here.
- Mr. Spock: A statistical probability.
- Lara: You ever quote anything besides statistics, Vulcan?
- Mr. Spock: Yes, but philosophy and poetry are not appropriate here.
- EM-3-Green: I was sentenced to this mad expedition. My people are cautious, what you would call cowards.
- Lara: I tell you true, I find you an attractive man. If we were... together, the trip'd be easier, and if anything happened, why, uh... we'd have some green memories.
- Captain James T. Kirk: I already have... a lot of green memories.
- Captain James T. Kirk: [narrating] Captain's log: Stardate 5683.1. We're making a rendezvous with the Vedala asteroid on a unique mission. The Vedala are the oldest spacefaring race we know. They say something incredibly dangerous to the safety of our galaxy is developing and they have sent for selected specialists including Spock and myself.
- Lara: Vulcans. Never liked 'em much m'self. Cold-blooded critters, all of 'em.
- Captain James T. Kirk: I wouldn't say that. Mr. Spock is a... unique personality.
- Captain James T. Kirk: Spock, how long since you've worked out in null-gravity combat exercises?
- Mr. Spock: Last week with you, Captain.
- Captain James T. Kirk: Let's go.
