(from internet transcript)

Tigh: Ship's doctors say that at first glance, everything in Leoben's body appears human. Internal organs, lymphatic system, the works.

Baltar: Right, well the tissue sample yielded unique chemical compounds during the cremation that reveal the nature of the sample to be synthetic. (He feigns surprise.) So he was a Cylon?

Adama: Yes, he was. And now we have a problem.

Tigh: A big one.

Adama: If the Cylons look like us, then any one of us could be a Cylon.

Baltar: That's, that's a very frightening possibility.

Adama: We need a way to screen human from Cylon. And that's where you come in.

Baltar: Me? Umm...

Tigh: Rumor has it you're a genius.

CAROL: Let me show you something ...that'll make you feel young as when the world was new.

[Reliant bridge]

JOACHIM: Impulse power restored.

KHAN: Excellent! More than a match for poor Enterprise.

[Genesis cave]

KIRK: You did all this in a day?

CAROL: The matrix formed in a day. The lifeforms grew later at a ...substantially accelerated rate.

McCOY: Jim! This is incredible. Have you ever seen the like?

CAROL: Can I cook or can't I?









Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (1982)

KHAN (on viewscreen): Admiral!

KIRK: We're finding it.

KHAN (on viewscreen): Admiral!

KIRK: Please, please ... give us time, ...the bridge is smashed, computers inoperative.

KHAN: Time is a luxury you don't have, Admiral.

KIRK: Damn!

KHAN (on viewscreen): Admiral!

KIRK: It's coming through now, Khan.

SPOCK: Reliant's prefix number is one six three zero nine.

SAAVIK: I don't understand.

KIRK: You have to learn why things work on a starship.

SPOCK: Each ship has its combination code.

KIRK: To prevent an enemy do what we're attempting. Using our console to order Reliant to lower her shields.

SPOCK: Assuming he hasn't changed the combination. He's quite intelligent.

COUNTDOWN VOICE: Fifteen seconds.

KIRK: Khan, how do I know you'll keep your word?

KHAN (on viewscreen): Oh, I've given you no word to keep, Admiral. In my judgment, you simply have no alternative.

KIRK: I see your point. Stand by to receive our transmission. ...Mister Sulu, lock phasers on target and await my command.

SULU: Phasers locked.

KHAN (on viewscreen): Time's up, Admiral.

KIRK: Here it comes. Now, Mister Spock.

[Reliant bridge]

JOACHIM: Sir! Our shields are dropping!

KHAN: Raise them.

JOACHIM: I can't!

KHAN: Where's the over-ride? The over-ride?
