Quotes 

  • Captain James T. Kirk : Bones, what's the sedative situation?

    Dr. McCoy : I've got some stuff that would tranquilize an active volcano.

  • Voice of Redjac : I am without ending. I have existed from the dawn of time, and I shall I live beyond its end! In the meantime, I shall feed, and this time I do not need a knife. You will all die horribly in searing pain!

    Mr. Spock : It is attempting to generate terror, Captain.

    Voice of Redjac : I can cut off your oxygen and suffocate you!

    Sulu : Captain.

    [McCoy injects Sulu with a hydrospray, Sulu immediately becomes euphoric] 

    Sulu : Whoever he is, he sure talks gloomy.

    [starts to rise from chair] 

    Captain James T. Kirk : [pushing Sulu back into his chair]  Man your post, Sulu.

  • Dr. McCoy : He's dead, Jim.

    Captain James T. Kirk : But that's impossible.

  • Scott : [Watching exotic belly dancer]  Captain, I think I'm going to like Argelius.

    Captain James T. Kirk : Obviously a man of good taste.

    Scott : You mean to tell me that all these... well, that all this is... ?

    Captain James T. Kirk : Yes, yes, yes, the Argelians think very highly of their pleasure.

    Dr. McCoy : Now, that's an understatement if I ever heard one. This is a completely hedonistic society.

    Captain James T. Kirk : Do you like her, Scotty?

    Scott : Aye, why shouldn't I.

    Captain James T. Kirk : Good. I've invited her to join us at the table. I thought you might like to meet her.

    Scott : Now that's what I call a real captain: always thinking of his men.

  • Captain James T. Kirk : What is the law in these cases?

    Jaris : [enters]  The law of Argelius is love.

  • Scott : I went toward her, but... there was something in my way.

    Captain James T. Kirk : Something? You mean, someone.

    Scott : No, Captain, some... thing. Cold, it was, like a... stinking draft out of a slaughterhouse, but it wasn't... really there. Like a... if you know what I mean.

  • Captain James T. Kirk : Sybo spoke of a hunger that never dies. Something that thrives on fear, terror, death. Mr. Spock, maybe we're going about it in the wrong way. Let's assume that Sybo was a sensitive. That she DID sense something, something evil.

    Mr. Spock : Sensitivity of certain Argelian women is a documented fact, Captain.

    Jaris : My poor Sybo's talent was genuine, gentlemen. What she told you was true.

    Captain James T. Kirk : All right, then, what was it she said, exactly? A monstrous evil, ancient terror.

    Dr. McCoy : That devours all life and light.

    Captain James T. Kirk : She said something else, words that didn't make any sense.

    Dr. McCoy : Yes. Redjac, Beratis and, er, Kesla.

    Captain James T. Kirk : Obscure, meaningless words.

    Mr. Spock : To us, perhaps, but to the computer?

    Captain James T. Kirk : Ah. Mr. Spock, check them out.

  • Captain James T. Kirk : All right, Mister Spock, what do we have? A creature without form, that feeds on horror and fear, that must assume a physical shape to kill.

    Mr. Spock : And I suspect preys on women because women are more easily and more deeply terrified, generating more sheer horror than the male of the species.

  • Mr. Spock : Computer, this is a Class A compulsory directive. Compute to the last digit the value of pi.

    Voice of Redjac : [Off camera]  No, no, no, no! No, no!

    Mr. Spock : As we know, the value of pi is a transcendental figure without resolution. The computer banks will work on this problem to the exclusion of all else until we order it to stop.

    Captain James T. Kirk : Yes, that should keep that thing busy for a while.

  • Scott : What did you do with that thing, Captain? Did you send it back to the planet?

    Captain James T. Kirk : No. We beamed it out into open space, Scotty. Widest possible dispersion.

    Dr. McCoy : That thing can't die.

    Mr. Spock : Possibly, Doctor. Its consciousness may continue for some time, consisting of billions of separate bits of energy, floating forever in space, powerless.

    Captain James T. Kirk : But it will die finally.

    Captain James T. Kirk : [addressing Mr. Scott]  You seem very happy about the whole thing.

    Scott : Why not? For a while there I didn't know whether I was innocent or guilty.

  • Captain James T. Kirk : You come from Rigel IV.

    Hengist : Well, many people do. It's not a crime.

    Captain James T. Kirk : No, but what we're investigating is.

  • Sulu : This is the first time I heard a malfunction threaten us.

    Captain James T. Kirk : Man your post, Mr. Sulu.

  • Captain James T. Kirk : Bones, what would happen if that thing entered a tranquilized body?

    Dr. McCoy : Well, it might take up knitting, nothing more violent than that.

  • Captain James T. Kirk : [having introduced Scotty to a beautiful belly dancer]  My work is never done.

    Dr. McCoy : My work, Jim. This is prescription stuff. Don't forget, the explosion that threw Scotty against a bulkhead was caused by a woman.

    Captain James T. Kirk : Physically he's all right. Am I right in assuming that?

    Dr. McCoy : Oh, yes, yes. In matter of fact, considerable psychological damage could have been caused. Eh, for example, his total resentment toward women.

    Captain James T. Kirk : He seems to be overcoming his resentment.

    Dr. McCoy : Of course, in my professional opinion, when he gets back to the ship, he's gonna hate you for making him leave Argelius, but then he will have lost total resentment toward women.

    Captain James T. Kirk : Mission accomplished as far as Scotty is concerned. Bones, I know a little place across town where the women...

    Dr. McCoy : Yes. I know the place. I know the place, let's go.

  • Dr. McCoy : She's dead, Jim. Just like the other one.

    Captain James T. Kirk : Stabbed over and over again.

  • Hengist : Uh, Captain, uh, may I continue with the questions please?

    Captain James T. Kirk : Well, get on with it, man! Just don't stand there!

  • Captain James T. Kirk : [They're on therapeutic shore leave at a night club on planet Argelius II; exotic female dancers are performing]  Do you like her, Scotty?

    Scott : Aye. Why shouldn't I?

    Captain James T. Kirk : Good. I've invited her to join us at the table. I thought you might like to meet her.

    Scott : Now that's what I call a real captain. Always thinking of his men.

    [the dancer comes over, bends over backwards then does a shimmy before returning to the small stage to finish. Scotty bangs on the table in applause] 

    Captain James T. Kirk : [referring to table lights that are meant to be used for applause]  Scotty, Scotty. In Argelius they use the lights.

    Scott : Now, no one has to tell an old Aberdeen pub-crawler how to applaud, Captain.

  • Dr. McCoy : [referring to Mr. Scott, who seems to be suffering from severe amnesia after a murder has been committed]  Of course, there's another possibility.

    Captain James T. Kirk : Explain.

    Dr. McCoy : Hysterical amnesia. When a man feels guilty about something, something too terrible to remember, he blots it out of his conscious memory.
