  Mister Seven : What else do your record tapes show?

  Captain James T. Kirk : I'm afraid we can't reveal everything we know, Mister Seven.

  Mr. Spock : Captain, we could say that Mister Seven and Miss Lincoln have some... interesting experiences in store for them.

  Captain James T. Kirk : Yes, I think we could say that. Two to beam up, Scotty.

  Mr. Spock : Live long and prosper, Mister Seven.

  Captain James T. Kirk : And the same to you, Miss Lincoln. Energize.

  Captain James T. Kirk : Captain's log. Using the light speed breakaway factor, the Enterprise has moved back through time to the 20th century. We are now in extended orbit around Earth, using our ship's deflector shields to remain unobserved. Our mission - historical research. We are monitoring Earth communications to find out how our planet survived desperate problems in the year... 1968.

• Captain James T. Kirk : Captain's log, supplemental. Spock and I in custody. Even if we'd talk, they wouldn't believe us. We're powerless to stop Mr. Seven or prevent the launch, or even be certain if we should. I have never felt so helpless.
