for this kind of heat.

life forms see you?

KIRK(STILL RUNNING THROUGH RED WOODS): No, Mr. Spock, they did not.

SPOCK:
The Prime Directive clearly states

there can be no interference

with the internal development

of alien civilizations.

KIRK:
I know what it says!

Which is why I'm running

through the jungle wearing a disguise!

Now drop off your super ice cube

and let's go! Kirk out!

That would be highly illogical

Spock, I was kidding. You got this.
