Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home (1986) Edit

A guess?

A joke is a story with a humorous climax.

A landlubber.

A large mushroom pepperoni with extra onions and Michelob, please.

A little joke.

A male and a female humpback in a contained space.

A miracle? That's yet to come.

A secret base from which to launch the annihilation of the Klingon people.

A simple evacuation of the expanding epidural haematoma

Abandon ship. Scotty, do you hear me?

About 45 to 50 feet long. About 40 tons each.

About those colourful metaphors that we've discussed.

Acceleration is no longer a constant.

Acceleration thrust is at Spock's command.

Accounting for density and temperature and salinity factors?

Adjust the sine wave of this magnetic envelope

Admiral Kirk, how do you plead?

Admiral Kirk! Admiral Kirk!

Admiral Kirk! Can you hear me? I need your help!

Admiral, are you there?

Admiral, I am receiving whale song.

Admiral, I have a signal

Admiral, I need thruster control.

Admiral, I think you'd better get up there.

Admiral, if we were to assume

Admiral, may I ask you a question?

Admiral, may I suggest that Dr McCoy is correct?

Admiral, there may be a 20th century possibility.

Admiral, this is strange. The song is directly ahead.

Admiral, we have a problem!

Admiral, we have found the nuclear vessel.

Admiral, you'll be trapped.

Admiral!

Admiral!

Admiral! Admiral Kirk!

Admiral! Admiral Kirk! Can you hear me?

After that, Admiral, we're visible and dead in the water.

All attempts at regaining power have failed.

All charges but one are summarily dismissed.

All Earth orbiting starships are powerless.

All emergency systems are nonfunctional.

All power sources have failed.

All right, Commander. ls there anything you want to tell us?

All right, Scotty. it's up to you.

All right, tell them phasers on stun. Good luck. Kirk out.

All right, who are you? And don't jerk me around any more.

All right, who the hell are you? What were you doing in there?

All right. Let's take it from the top.

All set? Good hunting.

All systems have failed.

All underground storage systems

Also, I must apologise for my attire. I seem to have misplaced my uniform.

Ambassador Sarek,

An unknown form of energy of great power and intelligence,

And at noon tomorrow, in what is sure to be a media circus,

And besides, we're not talking about human beings here.

And certainly the biggest cockamamie fish story l've ever heard.

And Commander Sulu will convert us a whale tank...

And don't try anything, either.

And finally,

And hope to hell they tell this probe what to go do with itself.

And if you have any problems, just call me.

And it contains the only two humpback whales in captivity.

And it was Dr McCoy, with a fine sense of historical irony,

And like those mutineers of 500 years ago,

And now, here's a much better way to see George and Gracie. Underwater.

And probable location of humpback whales,

And producing milk to nurse their young.

And spend the rest of our lives mining borite,

And test detonated by the Admiral himself.

And that as a consequence of your new rank,

And that is the limit of their hostility.

And then start again.

And they will be again, that's the beauty of it.

And this is what it would sound like underwater?

And those that are taken in are no longer fully grown.

And we are forever in your debt.

And we intend no harm towards the whales.

And we still don't know what purpose they serve.

And what these things here are.

And, Admiral, I have replaced the Klingon food packs.

Any questions? All right.

Anyway, I said to her,

Are causing critical damage to this planet.

Are they some kind of navigational signal?

Are you a doctor?

Are you sure it isn't time for a colourful metaphor?

Are you sure you want to part with them?

As you can see, we have a great deal to offer,

As you wish, since you deem them of value,

As you wish.

At 60' x 1 0',

At least a possibility, Admiral.

Attempt to trace these whale songs to their source.

Attempting the hell to communicate.

Attempts to communicate with the probe have been negative

Attention. Attention. Red Alert.

Aye, sir, but l've never beamed up 400 tons before.

Aye, sir.

Back at the lnstitute, about extinction?

Back in the '60s, he was part of the Free Speech Movement at Berkeley.

Back to San Francisco.

Bad day.

Beautiful, aren't they? And extremely intelligent.

Because of all the hunting this time of year.

Because of certain mitigating circumstances,

Besides, I want to know why you travel around with that ditzy guy

Besides, I'm most impressed with your performance in this crisis.

Bob, it's tearing me apart, okay?

Bones, you stay here.

Bring in the accused.

But at this time we may be able to find some.

But he's not exactly working on all thrusters.

But I cannot wait here to find them.

But I sure couldn't fill your shoes.

But I want you guys out of here right now, or I call the cops.

But that is nothing compared to what he has achieved

But that is small compared to what we know,

But they don't seem to know anything about it.

But they're tagged, like I told you. I mean, you can go find them, right?

But they're tagged, like I told you. I mean, you can go find them, right?

But to have to go home in this Klingon flea trap...

But we'll tag them with radio transmitters

But we're stuck between a rock and a hard place.

But when? Spock?

But where?

But, if you let me finish,

But, of course, I cannot guarantee success.

By the beginning of the fusion era, these reactors had been replaced,

Calculating the coefficient of elapsed time

Can give a proper response to the probe.

Can we make breakaway speed?

Can you enclose it to hold water?

Can you let us hear the probe's transmission?

Can you tell me where the naval base is in...

Can't you tell me what it felt like?

Captain Spock, you do not stand accused.

Captain's log, Stardate 8390.

Causing crystalline restructure, theoretically.

Chekov will issue a phaser and a communicator

Chekov, can you hear me?

Chekov, Pavel.

Chekov, you're breaking up. Please signal again.

Chekov!

Chemotherapy, funduscopic examinations.

ClC Command Duty Officer, Commander Rogerson.

Cloaking device is stable. All systems normal.

Cloaking device now available on all flight modes.

Closing in on the whales, bearing 328 degrees.

Cloud coverage 1 00%. Temperatures decreasing rapidly.

Come in, please.

Come in, please. Come in, please.

Come on, Chekov. Wake up.

Come on, Spock. it's me, McCoy.

Come on, why don't you let me give you a lift?

Come on.

Come on. What the hell were you guys really trying to do back there?

Commander.

Commanders Uhura and Chekov are assigned to the uranium problem.

Communications officer as ready as she'll ever be.

Computer, resume testing.

Computer?

Computer.

Conceived by Kirk's son,

Conspiracy, assault on Federation officers,

Continue on course.

Continue tracking, Saratoga. We will analyse transmissions and advise.

Continue transmitting "Universal Peace" and "Hello"

Correct.

Could the humpbacks' answer to this call be simulated?

Could they be part of the mating ritual?

Could you tell me where the nuclear vessels are?

Council is now in session.

D.H. Lawrence.

Damage control is easy. Reading Klingon, that's hard.

Damn it, do you want an acute case on your hands?

Damn it. Damn it. We've been so lucky.

David died most bravely.

Depends on how much shielding there is between us and the reactor.

Despite all attempts at banning whaling,

Despite all that they are teaching us,

Dialysis?

Did braking thrusters fire?

Disobeying direct orders of the Starfleet Commander.

Do it.

Do not approach Earth.

Do whales attack people like in Moby Dick?

Do you have a message for your mother?

Do you mind if I ask you a few questions?

Do you see them?

Doctor, such unprofessional behaviour.

Does the species exist on any other planet?

Don't know anything about it?

Don't leave him in the hands of 20th century medicine.

Don't tell me fish stories, kiddo. l've known you too long.

Don't tell me you two are fighting again?

Don't tell me, they don't use money in the 23rd century.

Don't tell me. You're from outer space.

Don't worry.

Dr Nichols has offered to take us around the plant, personally.

Dr Nichols, I might be able to offer something to you.

Drilling holes in his head is not the answer.

Earth.

Emergency channel 0130. Code Red.

Emergency lights.

Emergency. We have a security breach. General alarm.

Engage computers. Prepare for warp speed.

Even as this Federation was negotiating a peace treaty with us,

Even with planetary reserves, we cannot survive without the sun.

Everybody not going to Earth had better get off.

Everybody remember where we parked.

Evidently unaware that its transmissions are destructive.

Excelsior? Why in God's name would you want that bucket of bolts?

Exclusively devoted to whales.

Excuse me, sir, can you direct me to the naval base in Alameda?

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Excuse me. Excuse me, please.

Excuse me. We'll take that.

Excuse me. Would you mind stopping that noise?

Explain.

Farewell.

Farewell.

Fascinating.

Father.

Flown, and that's the last you'll see of them?

For example?

For the variable mass of whales and water in your time re entry programme?

Forget it.

Forgive me, Doctor. I'm receiving a number of distress calls.

Freeze!

From the city?

Full power now, sir.

Further communications may not be possible.

Gangway!

Genesis was perfectly named, the creation of life, not death.

George and Gracie's transmitter, what's the radio frequency?

Get him back, get him back!

Get him back! Get him back!

Get out of the way. Hit the deck.

Go ahead. Stun me.

Go on!

Good day, Captain Spock. May yourjourney be free of incident.

Good morning. I'm your guide this morning.

Good thinking. Engine room. Report, Mr Scott.

Gracie does. I'll be right here.

Gracie is pregnant.

Gracie's not only pregnant, she's very pregnant.

Gregory!

Ground the ship. Keep the nose up if you can.

Hamlet, Act l, Scene lV.

Hardly, Admiral. I cannot even guarantee

Has been charged with nine violations of Starfleet regulations.

Have been shut down due to contamination from the probe's wave.

Have saved this planet from its own shortsightedness,

Haven't you got any goddamn feelings about that?

He means that he feels safer about your guesses

He melted the lock.

He saved Spock. He saved us all. I thought you should know.

He was destroying his own future.

He'll sing anywhere from 6 to as long as 30 minutes,

He's being held in the security corridor, one flight up. His condition is critical.

He's not expected to survive.

Hello, Alice. Welcome to Wonderland.

Hello, computer.

Hello.

Hello. We are looking for the nuclear vessels in Alameda.

Here I go.

Here it comes now.

Here, I got it.

Here?

Here.

Hey, Tom, get those steel plates in here!

Hi. Busy?

Hit the deck!

Hold it!

Hold it! Police!

Hold on tight, lassie. lt gets bumpy from here.

Hold the door. Hold the door. Emergency.

Homing in on the West Coast of North America.

How come we're here having dinner?

How did you know Gracie's pregnant? Nobody knows that.

How do you explain slowing pulse, low respiratory rate, and coma?

How do you feel?

How do you feel? How do you feel?

How do you propose to solve this minor problem?

How much?

How will I find you?

How will playing cards help?

How will that be done exactly?

I am from what, on your calendar, would be the late 23rd century.

I am Pavel Chekov, a commander in Starfleet,

I am? May I go now?

I assure you that won't be necessary. We're only trying to help.

I believe I shall begin by making use of this map.

I believe I was successful in communicating our intentions.

I believe we have arrived at the latter half of the 20th century.

I belong here. I am a whale biologist.

I can tell you that we're not in the military,

I can try, sir.

I can't believe we've come this far only to be stopped by this.

I did not have time, on Vulcan, to review the philosophical disciplines.

I did not wish to be shot down on the way to our own funeral.

I do it because I was there.

I do not understand the question, Mother.

I don't doubt it.

I don't know about you, but my compassion for someone

I don't know if I know the answer to that. I think it's across the bay, in Alameda.

I don't know if you've got the whole picture or not,

I don't know.

I don't think you should try using them any more.

I find it hard to believe that l've come millions of miles...

I find it illogical that its intentions should be hostile.

I flew something similar back in my Academy days.

I got 300 years of catch up learning to do.

I have a hunch

I have a notorious weakness for hard luck cases,

I have a photographic memory. I see words.

I have the coordinates of the reactor.

I have the distance and bearing which were provided by Commander Uhura.

I have used ourjourney back through time as a referent,

I heard the whole thing.

I just wish we could cloak the stench.

I know, I know.

I know. I feel the same thing,

I mean him back at his post like nothing happened.

I noticed you're still working with polymers.

I opposed your enlistment in Starfleet.

I prefer a dose of common sense.

I say again, we have an intruder in number 4MMR.

I see.

I shall attempt to compensate by altering our trajectory.

I think I have it, sir.

I think we'll find what we're looking for at the Cetacean lnstitute in Sausalito.

I thought you gents were running a test programme.

I thought you made up last night.

I wanna know how you know that.

I want you all to be very careful. This is terra incognita.

I wasn't told. They're in Alaska by now.

I were to show you a way to manufacture a wall,

I would accept that as an axiom.

I'm afraid you're a number of years too early for that.

I'm afraid you're trapped here with us.

I'm assistant director of the Maritime Cetacean lnstitute.

I'm here to bring two humpbacks into the 23rd century.

I'm impressed. That's a lot of work for a short voyage.

I'm ready, Spock. Let's go find George and Gracie.

I'm so happy for you, I can't tell you.

I'm sure the Admiral will recognise

I'm terribly sorry. There's been an awful mix up.

I'm very sorry, but...

If you read me, we're going to attempt time travel.

In relation to the acceleration curve.

In the hundreds of thousands,

In the slaughter of these inoffensive creatures.

In this case, the Pacific Basin.

Is directed solely at Admiral Kirk.

Is not limited to my estimate of their intelligence.

Is unrevealing in these cases.

It has almost totally ionised our atmosphere.

It has been three hours since our contact with the alien probe.

It is the Enterprise.

It is the judgement of this council that you be reduced in rank to captain,

James T. Kirk, renegade and terrorist.

Jim.

Judging by the pollution content of the atmosphere,

Juneau, Alaska, clouds increase 95%.

Just lucky, I guess.

Just use the keyboard.

Keep trying, you'll find him.

Kirk out.

Kirk was secretly developing the Genesis Torpedo,

Klingon mummification glyph.

Knows anything about humpback whales?

L'd much rather have yours.

L'll find you.

L'll give you $1 00.

L'll have bearing and distance for you, sir.

L'll introduce you to the lnstitute's pride and joy.

L'll put it another way.

L'll try, sir. Scott out.

L've come back in time

L've got a tyre iron right where I can get at it.

L've got to bring you in one at a time.

L've had to programme some of the variables from memory.

L've located Chekov, sir.

L've lost him.

Lass, I can hardly hear you.

Leningrad has lost all electrical power.

Let me see if I can sort it out.

Let me tell you something.

Let the record show that the commander and the crew

Let's do ourjob and get out of here.

Let's go.

Let's just say that no humpback born in captivity has ever survived.

Let's see it.

Lf I have to, I'll go to the open sea to get them.

Lf memory serves, there was a dubious flirtation

Lf my suspicion is correct,

Lf we juxtapose our coordinates, we should be able to find our destination

Lf you have such a low opinion of my abilities,

Lf you will all take your seats.

Life, death, life, things of that nature.

Like they say in your century, I don't even have your telephone number.

Like what?

Live long and prosper, Father.

Live long and prosper, Lieutenant.

Live long and prosper, my son.

Live long and prosper, my son.

Ln addition, many of the female whales are killed

Ln any case,

Ln that event, the probabilities are that our mission would fail.

Ln the ocean, the other whales will pick up his song, and pass it on.

Ln the park?

Look out! Look out!

Look!

Looking for a couple of humpback whales.

Ls that a lot?

Ls that the logical thing to do, Spock?

Ls there no way of recrystallising the dilithium?

Ls there something wrong with the one I have?

Lt appears to be a probe, Captain, from an intelligence unknown to us.

Lt doesn't look all that different.

Lt is currently laced with, shall I say, more colourful metaphors,

Lt is difficult to answer

Lt is possible that an alien intelligence

Lt is possible that judgement was incorrect.

Lt is sung by the male.

Lt means that our chances of getting home are not too good.

Lt means that they will be at risk from whale hunters,

Lt must be coming from inside the ship.

Lt sounds like the goddamn Spanish lnquisition to me.

Lt was most kind of you to make this effort.

Lt was no effort. You are my son.

Lt wasn't some kind of macho thing, was it? Because if that's all,

Lt would be impossible to discuss this subject

Lt would not be proper to refer to you as Jim

Lt would take years just to figure out the dynamics of this matrix.

Lt wouldn't have been good for them. Besides, we thought

Lt's a foregone conclusion

Lt's a miracle these people ever got out of the 20th century.

Lt's all right. Yes, I know. it's okay, they didn't mean any harm.

Lt's bad enough to be court martialed,

Lt's better for me, better for you, it's better for them.

Lt's coming from San Francisco.

Lt's going slowly, sir. lt'll be well into tomorrow.

Lt's got a cloaking device that cost us a lot.

Lt's his way.

Lt's never been proven their intelligence

Lt's not always necessary to tell the truth.

Lt's not so much a matter of a place as of a time.

Lt's perfect, Spock.

Lt's the right place, Spock.

Lt's these Klingon crystals, Admiral. The time travel drained them.

Lt's too bad, too, because they're really quite friendly, as you could see.

Lt's using forms of energy our best scientists do not understand.

Lts signal is damaging everything in its path.

Made by your flawed, feeling, human friends.

Maintaining impulse climb. Wing 5 by 0. Helm steady.

Man did plenty of damage.

Many of their customs will doubtless take us by surprise.

MarDet Commanding Officer,

Maximum speed, sir.

May fortune favour the foolish.

Men have harvested whales for a variety of purposes,

Most kind.

Most of which can be achieved synthetically at this point.

Mr Chekov, any sign of a Federation escort?

Mr President,

Mr President, I stand with my shipmates.

Mr President, we have power.

Mr President.

Mr Scott cannot give me exact figures, Admiral, so I will make a guess.

Mr Sulu, take us home.

Mr Sulu, that's all I can give you!

Mr Sulu, you have the conn.

Multiphasic transmissions, overlapping. it's almost a gibberish.

Must be the radiation.

My friends, we've come home.

My God. What is this, the Dark Ages?

My name is Dr Gillian Taylor, but you can call me Gillian.

My shoes?

My transporter power is down to minimal.

My whales.

Name. Rank.

Naturally. So what's your problem?

Negative. Humpbacks were indigenous to Earth, Earth of the past.

Negative. it's impacting on all our systems.

No data, Admiral. Computers are nonfunctional.

No doubt about your memory, Spock.

No one will ever know we were there.

No way. Somebody's got to keep an eye on him.

No word since beam in. We can only wait for them to call.

No, but it is the human thing to do.

No, I'm from lowa. I only work in outer space.

No, no, no. All I need is the radio frequency to track them.

No, sir, and no Federation vessels on assigned patrol stations.

No. No, most whales don't even have teeth.

Nobody pays any attention to you unless you swear every other word.

None of these people have ever seen an extraterrestrial before.

Not now, Madeline!

Not now, Pavel.

Not only is he responsible for the murder of a Klingon crew,

Now all we have to do is get the whales out of here before we sink!

Now hear this. Smoking lamp is out while transferring fuel.

Now if you'll follow me, please.

Now suppose, just suppose,

Now we need directions.

Now, if you'll follow me, please,

Now, Mr Sulu!

Now, Mr Sulu.

Now, you swallow that,

Nuclear power was widely used in naval vessels.

Nuclear vessels.

Of the late Starship Enterprise

Off the deep end, Mr Scott.

Oh, is that what it was? Prepare for departure.

Okay, I don't know what this is all about,

Okay, make nice. Give us the ray gun.

Okay.

Old, yes, but interesting.

On a special frequency so that we can keep tabs on them.

On all known frequencies.

On apparent trajectory to the Terran solar system.

On appointment, to study methods of manufacturing by Plexicorp,

On behalf of all of us, Mr President, I'm authorised to plead guilty.

On route to Earth aboard a Klingon vessel.

On screen.

One damn minute, Admiral.

Only human arrogance would assume the message must be meant for man.

Only the extinct species, humpback whale,

Or is it pure communication beyond our comprehension?

Or to tell you how much you've meant to us.

Ordinarily, I could do it with a piece of transparent aluminium.

Our chief engineer is trying to deploy a makeshift solar sail.

Our mission?

Our mission? Spock, you're talking about the end of every life on Earth.

Our own world is waiting for us to save it. lf we can.

Out of the way. Get out of the way.

Overlapping distress calls

Past tense "their extinction."

Patrolling Sector 5, Neutral Zone.

Pavel, can you hear me?

Pavel, talk to me.

Perhaps the professor could use your computer.

Perhaps we could cover a little philosophical ground,

Perhaps you should transmit a planetary distress signal,

Personal bias. His son was saved by Kirk.

Pick up enough speed and you're in time warp.

Picture, please.

Please.

Postprandial upper abdominal distention.

Professor Scott, I'm Dr Nichols, the plant manager.

Put it on screen.

Put them on speakers.

Quite right, Mr Spock. Engage cloaking device, Mr Chekov.

Rank, Admiral.

Ready to engage computer, Admiral.

Ready, Captain.

Really? You think this is its way of saying,

Red Alert. Red Alert.

Red Alert. Red Alert.

Red Alert. We are now on Red Alert.

Remember this well.

Repopulate the species.

Right.

Right.

Right. Then this must be old stuff to you.

Saavik.

Sabotage of the U.S.S. Excelsior,

San Francisco. I was born there.

Satellite reserve power. Now.

Save your energy. Save yourselves. Avoid the planet Earth at all costs.

Scotty, are the whale tanks secure?

Scotty, beam me up.

Scotty, can you hear me?

Scotty, come in, please.

Scotty, do you read?

Scotty, how soon?

Scotty, now would be a good time.

Scotty, we're ready for beam out.

Scotty, you promised me an estimate on the dilithium crystals.

Scotty! Damn it. Move! Move!

Scotty.

See you around the galaxy.

See, yes.

Sent the probe to determine why they lost contact.

Shields at maximum.

Simple logic will suffice.

Since the dawn of time,

Sir, heat shields at maximum.

Sir, I have not had the opportunity to tell you about your son.

Sir, spacedock doors are inoperative.

Sir, the braking thrusters have fired.

So that antineutrons can pass through but the antigravitons cannot.

So you may not understand feelings, but as my son, you have them.

So you see, that, as they say, is that.

So, please follow me, and just give a yell if you can't hear me, okay?

Sorry, Admiral. We just thought you'd like to know,

Sorry, sir.

Sorry, that's classified.

Spacedock, this is Starfleet. Launch all vessels. Launch all vessels.

Specifically the aforementioned U.S.S. Enterprise,

Spock, does the good of the many outweigh the good of the one?

Spock, don't call me Admiral.

Spock, Jim. Don't you remember?

Spock, the retraining of your mind has been in the Vulcan way,

Spock, where the hell's the power you promised?

Spock, you're talking about the end of every life on Earth.

Stabilise. Emergency reserve.

Stand by.

Starfleet Command, this is AdmiraI James T. Kirk,

Starfleet Command, this is Saratoga. Can you hear me?

Starfleet Command, this is spacedock on emergency channel.

Starfleet Command, this is U.S.S. Saratoga

Starfleet emergency. Red Alert.

Starfleet regulations? That's outrageous!

Starship sensors indicate it is being pursued so closely,

Start your computations for time warp. Bones, you come with me.

Stay with them. On my way.

Still?

Storage tanks for your whales. We'll bring them up

Storage tanks for your whales. We'll bring them up

Sucker for hard luck cases. Cheers.

Suppose, by some miracle, you do get them through.

Sure you won't change your mind?

Surprise.

Switching now, Admiral.

T'Plana Hath, Matron of Vulcan philosophy.

Take it easy. We need your help.

Take the collector. You go first.

Team leader, this is Team Two. Come in, please.

Team Two, Kirk here.

Tearing of the middle meningeal artery.

Tell her I feel fine.

Than most other people's facts.

Thank you so much.

Thank you, for everything.

Thank you, sir.

Thank you.

That if things keep going the way they are,

That is the stupidest thing l've ever heard in my life.

That it occupies the same space as the pursuer.

That much is certain.

That strains vast amounts of tiny shrimp for food.

That the good of the one, you, was more important to them.

That these whales are ours to do with as we please,

That was the briefest dinner l've ever had in my life,

That we'd all be a lot happier discussing this over dinner.

That would do the same job but be only 1 " thick.

That's all there is, so don't splurge.

That's crazy. Who would send a probe hundreds of light years

That's cutting it closer than you know. What about Team Two?

That's easy, 6".

That's odd.

That's simply the way they talk here.

That's what I said, Alameda.

The artery must be repaired.

The beasties seem happy to see you, Doctor.

The bureaucratic mentality is the only constant in the universe.

The Cetacean lnstitute is the only museum in the world

The charges and specifications are

The command of a starship.

The doctor gave me a pill, and I grew a new kidney.

The first commonly held misconception is that whales are fish.

The frequency's 401 megahertz.

The giants.

The hell I can't.

The keyboard. How quaint.

The Klingons have lost two vessels.

The Klingons shed the first blood while attempting to possess its secrets.

The largest creature ever to inhabit the Earth.

The mains are down, sir. Aux power is not responding.

The mains are down, sir. Aux power...

The necessity of keeping discipline in any chain of command.

The next showing of The Wonderful World of Whales

The novels of Harold Robbins.

The President did say it was directed at Earth's oceans.

The probe could render us neutral easily.

The probe is headed directly toward us.

The probe is vapourising our oceans.

The probe.

The probe's transmissions are the songs sung by whales.

The problem is that they won't be that much safer at sea

The question is irrelevant.

The radio frequency, please.

The rest of you, break up. You look like a cadet review.

The result of this awesome energy

The same as the rest of the humpbacks.

The songs change every year,

The songs change every year,

The sounds, but not the language. We would be responding in gibberish.

The theft of a Klingon vessel, see now the real plot and intentions.

The top of what?

The transmissions of an orbiting probe

The truth.

The universal atmospheric element compensator.

Then I will try to make the best guess I can.

Then where the hell are we?

Then you stand here alive because of a mistake

There are other forms of intelligence on Earth, Doctor.

There are still countries and pirates currently engaged

There can be no response to this message. Excuse me.

There she is. From the lnstitute. lf we play our cards right,
