I dunno, that partly sounds like the one where Spock battles Kirk to the "death" to win his wife, but then ends up giving her to the guy she really wants.
And then when Kirk turns up alive, Spock smiles - weird!
This would be 'The Immunity Syndrome"- the giant amoeba that wipes out a ship full of vulcans. Take this episode, mix it with 'the Doomsday Machine", and 'Nomad" and you've got the Star Trek 1, and vger.
Egad. I have to have new quotes now? I ran out long ago, but we'll see .
how about some classic Trek sexism-
"The women on your planet are logical. That's the only planet in the galaxy that can make that claim."
Since I'm not going to be around for awhile, and can't think of another quote, I'll end the suspense and reveal that it's "Elaan of Troyis"-an episode I've slept through many times.
That was a pretty silly episode. How nice that she wore a dilithium necklace. You could have, of course, gone to IMDb or Memory-alpha, or TV.com, or... for quotes.
Anyone else want to post one? Lurkers, it's now or never!
I checked a couple places for quotes-but that episode doesn't seem to be very quote worthy.
Usually, I've tried to quote lines that resonate in my memory. Kind of like the thread of first lines of songs.Lines that once you hear them, take you to that episode in your head.
But there are no 'rules' and I've also looked up quotes to quote.
Is this the NG episode where Matt Frewer plays a supposed historian from the future but is in reality a technology thief from the past? I believe the episode was called "A Matter of Time."

Got it in one!
The quotes were from early on, when he pretended he'd studied the ship in history,
how the bridge looked, wondered where Worf sat in meetings, etc.

"Captain... the stars... are gone!"
"Both are right, both are capable... and which of my friends do I condemn to death?"
"If you can't tell me what it is, let's use reverse logic -- Perhaps it'll help if you tell me what it isn't."
"It is not liquid, gaseous, or solid, despite the fact we cannot see through it."
"So far that's not much help."
"We're wasting time. The shuttlecraft is ready."
"You're determined not to let me share in this, aren't you?"
"This is not a competition. Whether you understand it or not, grant me my own kind of dignity."

I'm reasonably sure this is the original series, but I'm not the best person to pick out most of the episodes.

Well then, let's see if anyone else chimes in. (Steve!? Cindy!?)

Correct. My next post would have been the giveaway: "Shut up, Spock! We're coming to save you!" "Why, thank you, CAPTAIN McCoy!"
As for your quote, I don't know yet, but how about the original series "Amok Time" (the episode Steve! described a couple of posts earlier)?

Not Amok Time-
cant conjure another quote at the moment. Food tossing is involved, though.

Yes, and I can see that our canine friend knows the episode.

The episode is "the Arsenal of Freedom", one of my personal favorites.
It's got Vincent Schiavelli as a computerized arms dealer, and it's one of those "this lesson has a moral" episodes-
"the arms race is wrong!" but is fun despite that.
One saucer separation, one "the Captain is on the Away Team! WHY!" and so on.
One of my favorite scenes was Riker looking for Captain Paul Rice of the USS Drake.
When a holographic impostor of Rice appears, and tries to question Riker, Riker starts giving him
useless "information." When Rice asks him about the ship he's on- "The Enterprise, isn't it?"
Riker says he's serving on a different ship, "the Lollipop." The impostor's never heard of it, so Riker
gives him more information. "It's been recently commissioned. It's a Good Ship."
How many OTHER chances do you get to hear a Star Trek crewman claim to be serving on
The Good Ship Lollipop?

"Ah... this is wonderful. Actually, quite a bit larger than I thought."
"Do you always sit there, on that side of the table?"
"Usually. Why?"
"It's not important."

If the Wadi had only been exposed to Vulcans as Alpha Quadrant representatives before
coming through the Wormhole, and they arrived on DS9 immediately looking for Quark's,
that meant the Vulcans recommended Quark's.
Fascinating. :)
(Hey, Phil Farrand pointed it out first.)
This is "Move Along Home", when the Wadi maneuver Quark into a "game", with his
friends as the pieces- and the pieces, like in chess, can be lost.
(With that in mind, I liked the ending.)
I haven't seen this one in quite a while-did they stop airing it?

I liked the ending, too:
"You mean...we were never in any real danger?"
"It's only a GAME!"
Hit it, WW!

"Another technical journal, Scotty?"
"Aye, sir."
"Don't you ever relax?"
"I am relaxin'!"
""Laddie... don't you think you should... rephrase that, a mite?"
"You're right, I should. I didn't mean to say the Enterprise should be hauling garbage, I meant to say that it should be hauled away as garbage!"

Could you have made it more obvious?
