Quote #7
FEDERATION PRESIDENT: Bring in the accused.
[The crew of Enterprise go to the front of the room. Spock joins them.]
FEDERATION PRESIDENT: Captain Spock, you do not stand accused.
SPOCK: Mr. President, I stand with my shipmates.
This is Spock putting his money where his mouth is. It's also a nice echo of the first scene we looked at in this section. The crew of Enterprise was willing to sacrifice their freedom to save Spock—why shouldn't he do the same for them?
Quote #8
KIRK: You mean this is goodbye?
GILLIAN: Why does it have to be goodbye?
KIRK: Well, like they say in your century, I don't even have your telephone number.
Over in Kirk-land, there's only one type of friendship on the man's mind—and it's of the romantic sort. Duh. It's one of our favorite subplots in the film, natch. The dude is relentless.
Quote #9
SAREK: As I recall, I opposed your enlistment in Starfleet. It is possible that judgment was incorrect. Your associates are people of good character.
SPOCK: They are my friends.
Sarek is the type of dad who doesn't say much, but when he does, you know it's meaningful. After everything that's happened over the past few Star Trek films, Sarek has gained an immense amount of respect for the men and women of Enterprise, even if he, as a Vulcan, doesn't entirely understand those folks.
