Star Trek: Strange New Worlds
Thursdays on Paramount+Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Quotes
Secrets I keep safe inside / A skill I perfected so I could survive / It worked before / It doesn’t serve me anymore / I wish I never learned how to be / So good at keeping secrets.
Una
Uhura: That was just a solo with backup vocals. Maybe four voices, max? So we need to do that again but with more, a lot more.
Pike: You mean, like an ensemble number?
Uhura: Not just an ensemble number. A grand finale. We need melodies and harmonies with tone ratios that achieve both algorithmic and logarithmic balance on a mass scale.
Spock: Imagine an area of space where quantum uncertainties collapse so rapidly and randomly that new realities are created. In one such reality, people sing… uncontrollably.
Pelia: A musical reality.
Spock: Indeed.
La’an: So what’s next? More improbability? Or will we just suddenly poof into bunnies.
M’Benga: I would prefer not to be a bunny either.
Pike: So… That happened.
La’an: Reports of musical outbreaks have come in from every deck.
James Kirk: Honestly, I thought it was something you had all rehearsed, but I sang too.
M’Benga: So did I. And I do not sing.
James Kirk: Y’know, my brother, he always described you as the First Officer that I thought I should be like. Someone who keeps a necessary distance from her crew because she knows she has to make hard decisions.
Una: I’m aware of the reputation I’ve had on this ship. But recently, I’m trying a new approach. More hands-on.
James Kirk: My last First Officer definitely kept his distance. And no one questioned him.
Una: I call that style of command a first mistake. The kind that makes my head shake. And my heart break.
Mr. Spock, you explained that very well. I almost understood it.
James Kirk
When I’m back, we’ll go somewhere we both want to go. But no camping, unless it comes with room service.
Batel
M’Benga: Careful. Deltan parsley in excessive amounts.
Pike: And in small amounts, delicious.
M’Benga: Erica! Everything all right?
Ortegas: No. The Butcher of J’Gal is in there and everyone’s acting like he’s the frickin’ Dali Lama.
Some things break in a way that can never be repaired. Only managed.
M’Benga
I told you I didn’t start the fight, but I’m glad he’s dead.
M’Benga
M’Benga: I didn’t start the fight, Chris.
Pike: This whole situation is… It’s complicated.
M’Benga: Is it? Rah was living a lie. I saw his true face. What if I told you he murdered children? Not his men. He did it. What if I started the fight then? Would that be so bad?
