Dr. Floyd: [sighs, takes off glasses] All right, what's going on here?
Tanya Kirbuk: What do you mean?
Dr. Floyd: Well, I may not be the swiftest guy in the world, even when I'm not hung over, but I do seem to remember a process where you people ask me questions and I give you answers and then I ask questions and you give me answers and that's the way we find out things. I think I read that in a manual somewhere.
Tanya Kirbuk: Your government wanted us to awaken you when we reported our findings. We did that. You are here to help us reactivate the Discovery and its computer systems because that is United States territory. You are authorized to observe other aspects of our mission. We have no other obligation.
Dr. Vladimir Rudenko: A lot has happened while you have been asleep.
Dr. Vasili Orlov: It is not our choice.
Tanya Kirbuk: The problem in Central America is growing worse.
Dr. Floyd: This looks as if you've detected the presence of chlorophyll.
Tanya Kirbuk: The United States is threatening a naval blockade.
Dr. Floyd: There's nothing but ice down there, so how the hell can there be any chlorophyll?
Tanya Kirbuk: You know and I know that my country cannot allow a blockade.
Dr. Floyd: How fast is it moving?
Tanya Kirbuk: We are under instructions -
Dr. Floyd: Listen, just because our governments are behaving like asses doesn't mean we have to. We're supposed to be scientists, not politicians. How fast?
Tanya Kirbuk: Doctor Floyd, I am also an officer of the Soviet Air Force!
Dr. Floyd: How fast?!
Dr. Vasili Orlov: One meter per minute.
Dr. Floyd: Don't worry, I'm just observing. Toward the sun?
Dr. Vasili Orlov: Yes.
Dr. Floyd: That's...that's incredible.
Tanya Kirbuk: We are going to send a probe down.
Dr. Floyd: Good!
