   | Spock : | "Miss Chapel." |  | Chapel : | "Yes, Mister Spock?" |  | Spock : | "I had a most startling dream. You were trying to tell me something... but I couldn't hear you. It would be illogical for us to protest against our natures, don't you think?" |  |  | talk about subtext... |  | 
| 
   | Spock : | "Would you beam down to the planet's surface and stand with me? There is a brief ceremony." |  | Kirk : | "Is it permitted?" |  | Spock : | "It is my right. By tradition the male is accompanied by his closest friends." |  | Kirk : | "Thank you Mister Spock." |  | Spock : | "I also request McCoy accompany me." |  | McCoy : | "I shall be honoured, sir." |  | 
| | T'Pau : | "What thee are about to see comes down from the time of the beginning, without change. This is the Vulcan heart. This is the Vulcan soul. This is our way." |  |  | to Kirk; regarding the ceremony | 
 | 
| 
   | Spock : | "He does not know! I will do... what I must... T'Pau, but not with him! His blood does not burn. He is my friend!" |  | T'Pau : | "It is said thy Vulcan blood is thin. Are thee Vulcan, or are thee human?" |  | 
| | Kirk : | "That's T'Pau, of Vulcan. All of Vulcan in one package. How can I back out in front of her?" |  |  | to McCoy |

   | Spock : | "I see no logic in preferring Stonn over me." |  | T'Pring : | "You have become much known among our people, Spock. Almost a legend. And as the years went by, I came to know that I did not want to be the consort of a legend. But by the laws of our people, I could only divorce you by the Kal-if-fee. There was also Stonn who wanted very much to be my consort. And I wanted him. If your Captain were victor, he would not want me, so I would have Stonn. If you were victor, you would free me because I had dared to challenge, and again I would have Stonn. But if you did not free me, it would be the same. For you would be gone. And I would have your name and your property, and Stonn would still be there." |  | Spock : | "Logical. Flawlessly logical." |  | T'Pring : | "I am honoured." |  | 
| | Spock : | "Stonn; she is yours. After a time, you may find that having is not so pleasing a thing after all as wanting. It is not logical, but it is often true." |  |  | to Stonn |

   | Spock : | "Live long, T'Pau and prosper." |  | T'Pau : | "Live long and prosper, Spock." |  | Spock : | "I shall do neither. I have killed my Captain... and my friend." |  |  | The first time this phrase is used. |  |
