Oh, um, what's it called, "That Which Survives". The one with the three underground brainglobes. Right?

Zeke 07-23-2012 02:12 PM

Right. You're up.

NAHTMMM 07-24-2012 04:33 AM

"Do you know why you're not afraid to die, Spock? You're more afraid of living. Each day you stay alive is just one more day you might slip and let your human half peek out. That's it, isn't it? Insecurity. Why, you wouldn't know what to do with a genuine, warm, decent feeling."

Sa'ar Chasm 07-24-2012 06:06 AM

Galileo Seven, McCoy.

NAHTMMM 07-24-2012 05:24 PM

McCoy's the one talking, but that isn't the episode.

NAHTMMM 07-26-2012 01:05 PM

If it helps, they've been captured. If it doesn't help, Kirk isn't in the room with them.

Sa'ar Chasm 07-26-2012 04:12 PM

All Our Yesterdays?

NAHTMMM 07-28-2012 01:06 AM

No, but there are three words in the title.

Sa'ar Chasm 07-28-2012 04:02 AM

Arrrgh! Shatner and his ego were in every bloody scene. How many Kirkless conversations could Bones and Spock possibly have?

How about The Paradise Syndrome? Kirk spends the entire episode off banging hot transplanted-human chick.

Edit: Changed "McCoy" to "Spock". Bones *is* McCoy.

Zeke 07-28-2012 09:02 AM

I'm disqualified since I looked this up (I thought Sa'ar was right, and wanted to confirm). Nah, I think you should give a bigger hint -- the correct episode wouldn't have been among my first ten guesses based on the quote alone.

Even for McCoy, this one's really harsh. Bad enough as a personal attack and borderline racist to boot. But then, that's what made the TOS characters so real. Gene would never have let his characters talk this way about each other in the TNG days.

Sa'ar Chasm 07-28-2012 05:06 PM

Borderline racism? How about Patterns of Force (Space Nazis!)

Edit: Or Catspaw. They got captured in that one too.

(Anyone else wanna guess?)

At this rate I'm just going to start at the pilot and guess each episode systematically.

evay 07-29-2012 04:19 PM

Yeah, I had to Google it and I wouldn't have gotten that one either. Obviously I have to get back to watching TOS over lunch.

NAHTMMM 07-29-2012 08:49 PM

Not Patterns of Force, but a more ancient Earth society than the Nazis.

Sorry, that was the best hint I could think of. I'm not very good at giving hints. :(

LOL. Well, Kirk was busy being complimented by one of the local high men on the totem pole. Maybe that's how Kelley and Nimoy got to have the scene to themselves. ;)

Sa'ar Chasm 07-30-2012 01:21 AM

Plato's Stepchildren.

Zeke 07-31-2012 12:43 AM

Not quite <i>that</i> old.

Sa'ar Chasm 07-31-2012 03:59 AM

I finally went and looked it up. Bah.

evay 07-31-2012 10:24 AM

Okay, NAHTMMM, you've officially stumped the panel. Can you reveal the ep and pick a new quote, please? :)

NAHTMMM 08-01-2012 12:37 AM

It's from "Bread and Circuses".

Since KJ and I will be on a trip for the next week, I award Sa'ar the Trying Really Hard Prize, which consists of giving everyone the next quote to guess. :)

Zeke 08-01-2012 01:19 AM

Have fun on your trip!

Sa'ar Chasm 08-01-2012 02:49 AM

"It happened."

I'll give you a hint up front: that's Geordi, insisting really hard that something he remembers occurring did in fact occur.
