few...
..or the one.
Spock...
l have been...
..and always shall be your friend.
Live long and prosper.
No.
Forgive me.
lt is not here.
l had assumed
he mind-melded with you.
lt is the Vulcan way...
when the body's end is near.
We were separated.
He couldn't touch me.
l see.
Then everything that he was...
..everything he knew...
..is lost.
Please wait.
He would have found a way.
lf there was that much at stake,
Spock would have found a way.
Yes. But how?
What if he joined with someone else?
Engine Room, Flight Recorder
Visual. Star date 8128. 78.
Go.
Ship...out of danger?
Yes.
Back, 0.77.
Flight Recorder Visual, 28. 77.
No! You'll flood
the whole compartment!
- He'll die.
- Captain! He's dead already.
Back, 0.76.
Flight Recorder Visual, 28. 76.
- You're not going in there!
- Perhaps you're right.
- What is Mr Scott's condition?
- l don't think that he...
Sorry, Doctor, l have no time
to discuss this logically.
Freeze.
Repeat...and augment.
Remember...
McCoy!
One alive, one not. Yet both in pain.
What must l do?
You must bring them
to Mount Seleya on Vulcan.
Only there can both find peace.
What you ask...
..is difficult.
You will find a way, Kirk.
lf you honour them both, you must.
l will.
l swear.
Transporter Room,
stand by to energise.
Aye, sir, energising now.
Grissom to Saavik. We're picking up
radiation from the lifeform.
Affirmative, Captain. Our readings
are well below danger level.
Exercise caution, Lieutenant.
This landing is Captain's discretion,
and l'm the one who's out on a limb.
l'll try to remember that.
There are your lifeforms. These were
microbes on the tube's surface.
We shot them here from Enterprise.
They were fruitful and multiplied.
But how could they have
evolved so quickly?
Saavik...
What is it?
Spock's burial robe.
No, absolutely not, Jim.
You're my best officer.
But l am Commander, Starfleet,
so l don't break rules.
Don't quote rules to me. l'm talking
about loyalty and sacrifice.
One man who's died for us, another
with deep emotional problems.
This business
about Spock and McCoy...
Honestly, l never understood
Vulcan mysticism.
You don't have to believe.
l'm not even sure that l believe.
But if there's even a chance
that Spock has an eternal soul...
- ..then it's my responsibility.
- Yours?
As surely as if it were my very own.
Give me back the Enterprise.
With Scotty's help l could...
The Enterprise would never stand
the pounding, and you know it!
- Then l'll hire a ship.
- Out of the question, my friend.
The Council has ordered that no one
but the science team goes to Genesis.
Your life and your career stand for
rationality, not intellectual chaos.
Keep up this emotional behaviour
and you'll lose everything.
You'll destroy yourself.
Do you understand me, Jim?
l hear you.
l had to try.
Of course.
- Thanks for the drink.
- Any time.
- The word, sir?
- The word...
..is no.
l am therefore going anyway.
- You can count on our help, sir.
- Shall l alert Dr McCoy?
Please. He has a long journey
ahead of him.
Long time, Doc.
Yeah. Anybody been looking for me?
l have, but what's the use?
What'll it be?
- Altair water.
- That's not your usual poison.
To expect one to order poison
in a bar is not logical.
Got it.
To your planet, welcome.
- l think that's my line, stranger.
- Oh, forgive.
l here am new. But you are known,
being McCoy from Enterprise.
- You have me at a disadvantage, sir.
- l name not important.
You seek l. Message received.
Available ship stands by.
How much and how soon?
How soon is now. How much is where.
- Somewhere in the Mutara Sector.
- Oh, Mutara restricted!
Take permits many. Money more.
There aren't going to be
any damn permits!
How can you get a permit
to do a damn illegal thing?
Look... Price you name, money l got!
Place you name, money l name,
otherwise bargain, no.
All right, dammit! Genesis. The name
of the place we're going is
