Line 5:
* Captain Pike: "''Punch it!''" - maybe the most memorable quote of the movie.
* The beginning of that other great friendship -
{{quote|
'''Kirk''': Well, I hate to break this to you, but Starfleet operates in space.
'''McCoy''':Yeah. Well, I got nowhere else to go, the ex-wife took the whole damn planet in the divorce. All I got left is my bones. }}
* Kirk: {{spoiler|"'''I got your gun.'''"}}
Line 39:
* After Spock orders security to take Kirk away, Kirk starts taking on security, and doing pretty well for himself. Then Spock drops Kirk in less than a second with the Vulcan Nerve Pinch, throwing in a [[Continuity Nod]] at the same time.
* Nero hailing the ''Enterprise'' in perhaps the best such scene since the second movie:
{{quote|
"Hi, Christopher. I'm Nero." }}
* Kirk's promotion. Welcome back, Captain Kirk. The airwaves have missed you.
Line 46:
* When Kirk asks Sulu what combat training he has. Sulu responds, "fencing". Kirk looks like he's either gonna laugh in his face or cry. Just....keep that in mind....
* The final conversation before {{spoiler|the Enterprise destroys the Narada}}:
{{quote|
'''Spock (aside):''' {{spoiler|Captain}}, what are you doing?
'''Kirk:''' Showing them compassion may be the only way to earn peace with the Romulans. It's logic, Spock. I thought you'd like that.
'''Spock:''' No, not really. Not this time.
'''Nero:''' {{spoiler|I would rather suffer the end of Romulus a thousand times. I would rather die in agony than accept assistance from you}}.
'''Kirk:''' You got it. {{spoiler|Arm phasers. ''Fire everything we've got''}}. }}
* Undoubtedly, {{spoiler|Nimoy!Spock}} gets one ''just for showing up in the film''.
Line 63:
* Kirk facing down four hulking Starfleet recruits in a bar. His boast of "Get some more guys and it will be an even fight" was cool, but he lived up to it by beating the shit out of them and still getting to second base with Uhura, all while pissed off his head. And while He does proceed to take a beating, it's still probably best Pike stopped it before Kirk sobered up.
* The last scene: Kirk taking his place in the captain's chair of the ''USS Enterprise'', with Uhura at communications, Chekov at navigation, and Sulu at the helm. Scotty is at Engineering, McCoy is at his captain's side, and at last Spock offers himself as second-in-command, and Kirk accepts. And then, the words of Ambassador Spock:
{{quote|
* Pike demonstrating Starfleet's method of ensuring that only the [[Badass]] need apply:
{{quote|
* The scene where little Spock finally snaps and goes to town on the bully for bad-mouthing his mother. You see the other bullies' faces and they're so terrified they don't even jump in.
