• Captain James T. Kirk : Show us the three Class M planets, Mr. Chekov.

  Chekov : The one on the left, number 3, it rates letter B on the industrial scale.

  Captain James T. Kirk : Earth equivalent approximately... 1485.

  Chekov : Yes, sir. Second planet Class M, number 4, rates letter G.

  Captain James T. Kirk : The year 2030.

  Sulu : But that ship, Captain, either was many years ahead of us, or it was the most incredible design fluke in history.

  Captain James T. Kirk : Third Class M planet, Mr. Chekov?

  Chekov : Number 6. No sign of industrial development. At last report, in a glacial age. Sapient life plentiful, but on a most primitive level.

  Captain James T. Kirk : Now, as I understand it, Mr. Chekov, there are three Class M planets...

  Chekov : Yes, sir.

  Captain James T. Kirk : ...not one of which is capable of launching an interstellar flight...

  Chekov : No, sir.

  Captain James T. Kirk : ...yet one of them accomplished it.

  Chekov : Yes, sir.

  Captain James T. Kirk : Thank you, Mr. Chekov.

• Sulu : That ship, Captain, either was many years ahead of us, or it was the most incredible design fluke in history.

• Sulu : Ship's Log, Lieutenant Sulu recording. I am holding the Enterprise in orbit about planet Sigma Draconis VII. Captain Kirk's hunch that Spock's brain is on this planet appears to be correct. Ensign Chekov remains on the surface, to act as liaison between the Captain and the Enterprise.
