Quotes 

• Christopher Pike : That's a technicality.

  Spock : I am Vulcan, sir. We embrace technicality.

  Christopher Pike : Are you giving me attitude, Spock?

  Spock : I am expressing multiple attitudes simultaneously. To which are you referring?

• James T. Kirk : How did you find me?

  Christopher Pike : I know you better than you think you do. The first time I found you was in a dive like this. Remember that? You got your ass handed to you.

  James T. Kirk : No, I didn't.

  Christopher Pike : You don't.

  James T. Kirk : No, that's not what happened.

  Christopher Pike : That was an epic beating.

  James T. Kirk : No, it wasn't.

  Christopher Pike : You had napkins hanging out of your nose. Did you not?

  James T. Kirk : Yeah, that was a good fight.

• Christopher Pike : [to Kirk]  Do you know what a pain you are? You think the rules don't apply to you. There's greatness in you, but there's not an ounce of humility. You think that you can't make mistakes, but there's going to come a moment when you realize you're wrong about that, and you're going to get yourself and everyone under your command killed.

• Christopher Pike : Tell me more about this volcano. The data says it was highly volatile and if it were to erupt, it would wipe out the planet.

  James T. Kirk : Let's hope it doesn't, sir.

  Christopher Pike : Something tells me it won't.

• Christopher Pike : If anybody deserves a second chance, it's Jim Kirk.

• Christopher Pike : You don't comply with the rules, you don't take responsibility for *anything*, and you don't respect the chair.

• James T. Kirk : What's in the bag?

  Christopher Pike : James, not now.

  James T. Kirk : It doesn't seem odd to you that he'd target an archive? It's like bombing a library.

  Marcus : Chris? Everything okay there?

  Christopher Pike : Yes, sir. Mr. Kirk is just acclimating to his new position as first officer.

  Marcus : You got something to say, Kirk, say it. Tomorrow's too late.

  James T. Kirk : I'm fine, sir. My apologies.

  Marcus : Spit it out, son. Don't be shy.

  James T. Kirk : I... why the archive? All that information is-is public record. And if he really wanted to damage Starfleet, this could just be the beginning.

  Marcus : The beginning of what, Mr. Kirk?

  James T. Kirk : Sir, in the event of an attack, protocol mandates that senior command gather captains and first officers at Starfleet HQ, right here... in this room.

  Spock : It is curious Harrison would commandeer a jumpship without warp capabilities...

  [with a loud rumble, a ship appears outside] 

  James T. Kirk : [realizing it's an attack]  Clear the room!
