• Yeoman Janice Rand : Where are you, Sulu?

  Sulu : In here, feeding the weepers, Janice.

  Yeoman Janice Rand : I've got your tray.

  Sulu : May the Great Bird of the Galaxy bless your planet.

• Yeoman Janice Rand : [to "Green", who has been following her]  Why don't you go chase an asteroid?

• Yeoman Janice Rand : [to one of Sulu's plants]  Hello, Beauregard. How are you today, darling?

  Sulu : Her name's Gertrude.

  Yeoman Janice Rand : No, it's a he plant. A girl can tell.

  Sulu : Why do people have to call inanimate objects 'she'? Like, um, "she's a fast ship".

  Yeoman Janice Rand : He is not an inanimate object. He's so animate he makes me nervous. In fact, I keep expecting one of these plants of yours to, er, grab me.

• Uhura : I've checked every face on this vessel. It was not a crewman I saw.

  Captain James T. Kirk : Yeoman Rand, how long was this "Green" with you?

  Yeoman Janice Rand : As long as he... it thought it could get to the salt in my tray, sir.

  Captain James T. Kirk : Mr. Spock?

  Mr. Spock : Supplies of salt have been set out as bait at all decks and engineering levels, Captain. However, no one or nothing has approached them as yet.

  Captain James T. Kirk : Dr. McCoy?

  Dr. McCoy : Yes?

  Captain James T. Kirk : Medical department report, Doctor.

  Dr. McCoy : Oh. Well, we could offer it salt without tricks. There's no reason for it to attack us.

  Mr. Spock : Your attitude is laudable, Doctor, but your reasoning is reckless.

  Professor Robert Crater : The creature is not dangerous when fed.

  Dr. McCoy : No, it's simply trying to survive by using its natural ability to take other forms.

  Professor Robert Crater : The way the chameleon uses its protective coloring, an ability retained no doubt from its primitive state, the way we have retained our incisor teeth. They were once fangs. Certain of our muscles were designed for chase. It uses its ability the way we would use our muscles and teeth if necessary to stay alive.

  Dr. McCoy : And like us, it's an intelligent animal. It's, uh... there's no need to hunt it down.

  Mr. Spock : A very interesting hypothesis, Doctor.

• Yeoman Janice Rand : You been nipping Saurian brandy or something?
