Star Trek III: The Search for Spock Page #3

I don't believe it.

What is it?

If equipment

is functioning properly,

indications are

an animal life form.

You said there

wouldn't be any.

There shouldn't be any.

Cross-referenced

and verified.

An unidentifiable

life form reading.

Shall we advise Starfleet?

Wait a minute.

We don't know what

we're talking about here.

Let's

beam it up.

No, you don't.

Regulations

specifically state

nothing shall

be beamed aboard

until danger of contamination

has been eliminated.

The logical alternative

is obvious.

Beaming down

is permitted.

If the Captain

decides the mission

is vital and reasonably

free of danger.

Captain, please, we've got to

find out what it is.

Or who.

Absent friends.

Admiral, what will happen

to the Enterprise?

She's to be

decommissioned.

Will we get

another ship?

I can't get

an answer.

Starfleet is

up to its brass

in a galactic

conference.

No one has time

for those who wait.

Sir, about

Dr. McCoy...

how is he?

He's home,

resting comfortably.

Pumped full

of tranquilizers.

They say

it's exhaustion.

He promised me he'd stay put.

We'll see.

Ah, Mr. Scott.

Come.

Sarek!

Ambassador, I had no idea

you were here.

You know my crew.

I will speak

with you alone, Kirk.

Please excuse us.

Ambassador, I would

have come to Vulcan

to express

my deepest sympathies.

Spare me your

human platitudes.

I have been

to your government.

I've seen the Genesis

information and your own report.

Then you know your son

met his death bravely.

Why did you leave

him on Genesis?

Spock trusted you,

and you denied him

his future.

I saw no future.

Only his body

was in death.

You were the last

one to be with him.

Yes, I was.

You should have come

with him to Vulcan.

But why?

Because

he asked you to.

He entrusted you

with his

very essence,

with everything

that was not of the body.

He asked you

to bring him to us

and to bring that

which he gave you-

his Katra-

his living spirit.

Sir...

your son meant more to me

than you can know.

I'd have given my life

if it would have saved his.

Believe me, he made

no request of me.

He would not have

spoken of it openly.

Then how...

Kirk, I must

have your thoughts.

May I join your mind?

Certainly.

He spoke

of your friendship.

Yes.

Asked you

not to grieve.

Yes.

The needs

of the many...

outweigh...

the needs

of the few.

Or the one.

Spock.

I have been...

and always

shall be...

your friend.

Live long...

and prosper.

No.

Forgive me.

It is not here.

I had assumed

he mind-melded with you.

It is

the Vulcan way

when the body's

end is near.

We were separate.

He couldn't touch me.

I see.

Then everything
