.062 - it's hard to be a lady

[Private to Bones]

Are you working in the Infirmary right now?

[Private to Uhura]

I have questions for you.

[Private to T'Pol]

Do you still have that thing I gave you for Christmas?

The other Spock -the old one said I had to emotionally compromise... himself.

Captain...what other Spock?

[WHOOPS]

How much do you know about what happened to me on Delta Vega?

Only that you came back with Mister Scott looking beat to hell.

There might've been a third person on the planet. Who didn't come back with us.

This...Captain, whatever you want to tell me, just tell me.

Fine but if some other universe breaks because of this, it's not my fault.

Nero wasn't the only one to fall through the blackhole. Spock did too. But he's not our Spock. He's... the other one.

From the Admiral's timeline? Admiral Kirk, I mean.

Yeah. He saved me from an ice monster and was very insistent that I had to be the captain.

So he was the reason you said such awful things to Spock?

I had to get him to resign, Uhura. It was the only thing I could think of that would hit deeply enough.

Yeah. Of course.

... I'm not proud of that either.

Anything to do what needed to be done, right?

He brought up my dad to make a point.

I'm not saying that was right, either.

Then what are you saying?

I'm saying that you were both in the wrong. But, while Spock did it to prove a point, you did it to intentionally get a rise out of him.

I did it to save a planet, in case you forgot.

Yes, Captain. I know.

You're still mad at me though.
