Star Trek - "Metamorphosis" - tv-series Season 2 Episode 9, 11/10/1967
Episode Summary
When their shuttle is diverted to a planetoid, Kirk, Spock, and McCoy encounter Earth's Warp Drive pioneer, Zefram Cochrane, who appears to have survived there alone for 150 years.
(from internet transcript)
SPOCK: There is some risk, Captain. We do not know the extent of its powers.
KIRK: Nor it ours.
[Outside Cochrane's home]
(Cochrane 'calls' and the Companion comes just as before. When it has enveloped him, Kirk gives the word.)
KIRK: Now.
(The jolt knocks Cochrane out and the Companion comes towards the dwelling, apparently angry.)
[Cochrane's home]
(It enters, blows up Spock's contraption then attacks Kirk and Spock. They are rolling around on the floor inside the sparkly thing, clutching their throats.)
MCCOY: Stop it! You're killing them! Stop it, please! Stop it! You're choking them! Let them go. You're choking them! Stop it!
(Outside, Cochrane hears McCoy's shouts, and somehow calms the Companion. It vanishes.)
MCCOY: You all right, Jim?
KIRK: Yeah.
MCCOY: Spock?
SPOCK: All right.
(They go to the doorway and see the Companion with Cochrane again.)
KIRK: Cochrane got it off of us, but I don't know whether he did us a favour or not.
MCCOY: What kind of talk is that?
KIRK: How do you fight a thing like that? I've got a ship up there somewhere, responsibility for four lives here, one of them dying because of me.
MCCOY: It isn't your fault.
KIRK: I'm in command, Bones. It makes it my fault. How do you fight a thing like that?
MCCOY: Maybe you're a soldier so often that you forget you're also trained to be a diplomat. Why not try a carrot instead of a stick?
