Honestly, Uhura, I've never seen you look so=85" "So what?" "Well, so guilty. So, I repeat. What are you doing?" "Nothing, Doctor McCoy." "Now, don't 'nothing' me. And you can stop batting those eyelashes=20 at me. I can feel the breeze 'way over here. What's that behind=20 your back?" "Oh. This?" "Yes, this, Lieutenant." "Hey, give that back!" "What do you need with one of my specimen cases?" "I need it." "For what?" "For=85" "Are you blushing?" "I don't need to tell you anything, except that I need it. A real=20 Southern gentleman would know not to question a lady so!" "Appealing to my honor as an officer and a gentleman doesn't count=20 when you're stealing my equipment." "I'm not stealing. I am borrowing. You would have it back=85 eventually." "Uhura, what possible use do you have of one of my specimen cases?=20=20 I see those wheels churning. Take your time. This should be good."

"Lieutenant, you know what we just went through with these things." "But I know not too feed it too much. It won't multiply like=20 before!" "You don't know that for certain. I'm sorry, but I'll have to=20 confiscate this tribble. Now, don't cry." "Y-you're not going to kill it, are you?" "I'll just put it in stasis until we can get to FIZ."
