• Dr. McCoy : [Referring to Scotty]  : He's dead, Jim.

• Nomad : You are the Kirk, the creator. You programmed my function.

  Dr. McCoy : [outraged]  Well, I'M not the Kirk. Tell ME what your function is.

  Nomad : This is one of your units, creator?

  Capt. Kirk : Yes, he is.

  Nomad : It functions irrationally.

  Capt. Kirk : Sometimes, but tell him your function, nevertheless.

  Nomad : My function is to probe for biological infestations, to destroy that which is not perfect.

• Dr. McCoy : [looking at an isometric drawing of the NOMAD probe]  Well, that's not the same.

  Spock : Essentially, it is, Doctor. I believe that more happened to it than just damage in the meteor collision. It mentioned "the other." The unanswered question is: the other WHAT?

• Dr. McCoy : [about Nomad]  Jim, I don't think there is anybody in there.

  Nomad : I contain no parasitical beings. I am Nomad.

  Scott : In *my* opinion, that's a machine.
