Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home
:50:20
Despite all they're teaching us,
we have to return them to the open sea.
:50:26
We simply don't have enough money
to feed them two tons of shrimp a day.
:50:33
- How soon?
- Soon.
:50:36
It's too bad, because
they're really quite friendly.
:50:39
I've grown quite attached to them.
:50:45
Now here's a much better way to see
George and Gracie. Underwater.
:51:01
What you're hearing is recorded
whale song, sung by the male.
:51:06
He'll sing anywhere
from 6 to 30 minutes.
:51:10
In the ocean, other whales will
pick up the song and pass it on.
:51:14
The songs change every year.
We don't know their purpose.
:51:21
Are they a navigational signal?
:51:26
Are they part of the mating ritual?
:51:30
Or is it pure communication
beyond our comprehension?
:51:36
Frankly, we just don't know.
:51:39
Maybe he's singing to that man.
:51:46
What the hell?!
Excuse me, wait right here.
:51:56
Excuse me, please.
:52:04
- What were you doing in there?
- Yes, speak up.
:52:08
- Attempting the hell to communicate.
- You have no right to be here!
:52:14
You heard the lady.
:52:17
If we assumed that these whales
are ours to do with as we please,
:52:21
we would be as guilty as those
who caused their extinction.
:52:27
I want you guys out of here
before I call the cops.
:52:31
We were only trying to help.
:52:34
Your friend
was messing up my whales.
:52:37
They like you,
but they are not the hell your whales.
:52:41
- I suppose they told you that.
- The hell they did.
:52:45
Right.
:52:51
Spock, about those colourful
metaphors we discussed.
:52:57
Don't use them any more.
You haven't quite got the knack of it.
:53:03
And another thing, it's not
always necessary to tell the truth.
:53:08
- I cannot tell a lie.
- I don't mean lie.
:53:10
But you could exaggerate.
You've done it before.
:53:14
- Can't you remember?
- The hell I can't.
:53:19
- What else did you learn?
- Their species is unhappy with man.

:53:55
- How are you doing?
- I'm fine.
:53:57
Don't tell me fish stories,
I've known you too long.
:54:03
Bob, it's tearing me apart.
:54:06
I feel the same, but we're stuck
between a rock and a hard place.
:54:11
If we keep them here or let them go,
we're still risking their lives.
:54:15
I know.
:54:17
They're not human beings.
Their intelligence is...
:54:22
My compassion is not limited to
my estimation of one's intelligence.
