"Breaking the Ice" Line-by-Line

[Athena28]

TUCKER: That's too deep to get a lock.

 

[BlueStuff]

REED: We've got the portable drilling rig, sir.

 

[Enterprise1981]

TRAVIS: The comet's certainly big enough to land on. We could take a shuttlepod.

 

[BlueStuff]

T'POL: I'd advise setting down near one of the two poles. If you're out of direct sunlight, the surface ice will be more stable.

 

[Enterprise1981]

ARCHER: How long would you need?

 

[Orac]

Reed: Shouldn't take more than three or four hours.

 

[Enterprise1981]

ARCHER: You up for a little comet walk?

 

[Orac]

Reed: By all means.

 

[BlueStuff]

ARCHER: Get started.

 

[Enterprise1981]

[Bridge]

HOSHI: Captain, I'm detecting a vessel closing on our position. It's Vulcan.

 

[BlueStuff]

T'POL: The starship Ti'Mur.

 

[Athena28]

ARCHER: Hail them. This is Captain Jonathan Archer of the Starship Enterprise.

 

[BlueStuff]

VANIK [on viewscreen]: I'm Captain Vanik.

 

[Orac]

Archer: Pleased to meet you.

 

[BlueStuff]

VANIK [on viewscreen]: You're a long way from Earth, Captain. Are you lost?

 

[Athena28]

ARCHER: Not at all. Just taking a look at this comet.

 

[Orac]

Vanik [on viewscreen]: Our sensors detected it two days ago. We also decided to investigate.

 

[Athena28]

ARCHER: Really? My science officer tells me that Vulcans aren't very interested in comets.

 

[Orac]

Vanik [on viewscreen]: Actually, it's your interest in the comet that we're investigating.

 

[Leandar]

Archer: We plan to send a drilling team to the surface to collect core samples. You're welcome to participate.
