Quotes 

• Uhura : [flirting with Mirror Sulu and stroking his face]  You... were supposed... to come back. You... didn't... come back.

  Mirror Sulu : [smiles and looks away from security panel] 

  Uhura : [smacks Mirror Sulu's face after security alarm clears]  Oh... I seem to have changed my mind!

  Mirror Sulu : You live dangerously, lady.

  Uhura : So do you, mister, so do you.

• Mirror Sulu : Still no interest, Uhura? Hmm? I could change your mind.

  Uhura : You are away from your post, mister.

  Mirror Sulu : Is the captain here? Is Spock here? When the cat's away...

• Mirror Sulu : [enraged]  You take a lot of chances, Lieutenant.

  Uhura : [angrily drawing a knife]  So do you, mister. So do you.

• Captain James T. Kirk : Communications status.

  Uhura : No storm damage, sir. All stations report normal.

  [whispering] 

  Uhura : You're ordered to annihilate the Halkans unless they comply. No alternative.

• Dr. McCoy : [in his quarters on the parallel Enterprise]  What is this? Everything's all messed up, changed around, out of place.

  Uhura : Captain, what's happened?

  Dr. McCoy : No, not everything.

  [pointing to a tabletop] 

  Dr. McCoy : That spot, I spilled acid there a year ago. Jim, what in blazes is...

  Captain James T. Kirk : I don't know. It's our Enterprise, but it isn't. Maybe...

  Uhura : Maybe what, Captain?

  Captain James T. Kirk : Any of you feel dizzy when we were in the transporter beam when we first materialized?

  Uhura : Yes.

  Scotty : I did.

  Captain James T. Kirk : It happened twice. First we were in our own transporter chamber, then we faded. And then when we finally materialized, we were here, wherever this is.

• Scotty : Captain, the transporter chief mentioned a surge of power. The transporter lock might have been affected by the ion storm and we just materialized somewhere else.

  Captain James T. Kirk : Yes, here. Not our universe, not our ship. Something... parallel. A parallel universe co-existing with ours on another dimensional plane. Everything's duplicated... almost. Another Enterprise. Spock with a beard.

  Uhura : Another Captain Kirk, another Dr. McCoy...

  Dr. McCoy : An exchange. If we're here...

  Captain James T. Kirk : Then our counterparts must have been transporting up at the exact same time. Similar storms on both universes disrupted the circuits. We're here, and they're...

  [realizing] 

  Captain James T. Kirk : ...on our Enterprise. Probably asking the same questions; are we in another universe? And if so, how do we get back to our own? They'll use the computer, and we have to.

  Dr. McCoy : What about the Halkans? We can't let them be destroyed.

  Captain James T. Kirk : Scotty, can you buy me some time? Get below and short out the main phaser couplings. They'll think the storm blew the standby circuits.

  Scotty : Aye, sir.

  Captain James T. Kirk : Then get on this technology. It's all we have to work with if we wanna get back home. The intercom may be monitored. Use your communicators for private messages. Subfrequency and scramble.
