[Chekov, as Billy Claiborne, is not too happy that Kirk has stopped him from deeply kissing Sylvia]
ChekovWhat can I do, Captain? You know we are always supposed to maintain good relations with the natives!
ChekovCaptain Kirk would never order an execution; that cannot be the captain!
I am Apollo!
Chekov[sarcastically] And I am the Tsar of all the Russias!
Mr. Chekov...
ChekovI'm sorry, Captain. I never met a god before.
And you haven't yet.
ChekovIt makes me homesick. Just like Russia.
More like the Garden of Eden, Ensign.
ChekovOf course, Doctor. The Garden of Eden was just outside Moscow. A wery nice place. It must have made Adam and Eve wery sad to leave.
[Sarcastically] Just....outside Moscow, all right.
Well, opinions?
ChekovI think we're in a lot of trouble.
That's a great help, Mister Chekov. Bones?
I think Mister Chekov's right. We are in a lot of trouble.
Spock? - and if you say we're in a lot of trouble -!
Spock [eyebrow raised]: We are.
[at the bridge, Chekov is flustered over the repeat checkups in sickbay]
Chekov'Give us some more blood, Chekov.' 'The needle won't hurt, Chekov.' 'Take off your shirt, Chekov.' 'Roll over, Chekov.' 'Breathe deeply, Chekov.' 'Blood sample, Chekov.' 'Marrow sample, Chekov.' 'Skin sample, Chekov.' IF...if I live long enough, I'm going to run out of samples!
You'll live.
ChekovOh yes, I'll live, but I won't enjoy it!
When are y'gonna get off that milk diet, lad?
ChekovThis is vodka!
Where I come from, that's soda pop. Now, this is a drink for a man.
ChekovScotch?
Aye.
ChekovIt was invented by a little old lady from Leningrad!
[The Enterprise is hailed by the Melkotians]
Captain Kirk. You did not kill. Is this the way of your kind?
We fight only when there is no other choice. We prefer the ways of peaceful contact. I speak for a vast alliance of fellow creatures who believe in the same thing. We have sought you out to join us. Our mission is still one of peace.
Approach our planet and be welcome. A delegation will come out to meet you. Our warning threats are over.
Excellent. Lieutenant, cancel Red Alert. Mister Chekov, resume original course, warp factor two.
ChekovWarp factor two, sir.
Captain. May I ask a question? You needn't answer if it seems too personal.
I'm sure I'll be able to give you an answer, Mister Spock
This afternoon, you wanted to kill, didn't you?
But he didn't kill, Mister Spock.
But he wanted to, Doctor.
Is that the way it seemed to you?
Yes, sir.
Mister Spock... you're absolutely right. That's exactly the way it was.
Mankind. Ready to kill.
That's the way it was in 1881.
I wonder how humanity managed to survive.
... We overcame our instinct for violence.
ChekovHas there ever been a mutiny on a starship before?
Absolutely no record of such an occurrence, Ensign.
ChekovI didn't think Mr. Scott would go for the brainy type.
I don't think he's even noticed she has a brain.
ChekovI believe I know one of them. At least, I think I recognize her voice. Her name is... Irina Galliulin. We were in Starfleet Academy together.
One of those... was in the Academy?!
