Star Trek: Into Darkness Quote
Scotty: [gesturing to the warp core]Do you know what this is, Captain?
James T. Kirk: I don't have time for a lecture, Scotty!
Scotty: [more forcefully]Do you know what this is?
James T. Kirk: [sighs]It's a warp core.
Scotty: It's a radioactive catastrophe waiting to happen. A subtle shift in magnetic output from, say, firing one or more of six dozen torpedoes with an unknown payload could set of a chain reaction which would kill every living thing on this ship, letting these torpedoes on the Enterprise is the last straw!
James T. Kirk: What was the first straw?
Scotty: What was the... [scoffs]
Scotty: -there are plenty of straws, how about Starfleet confiscating my transwarp equation, and now some madman is using it to hop across the galaxy! Where'd you think he got it from!
James T. Kirk: We have our orders, Scotty.
Scotty: That's what scares me... this is clearly a military operation. Is that what we are now? Cause I thought we were explorers. I thought we...
James T. Kirk: Sign for the torpedoes. That's an order.
Scotty: Right. Well you leave me no choice but to resign my duties.

James T. Kirk: You're not giving me much of a choice!
Scotty: I will not stand by and...
James T. Kirk: You're just making exceptions, sign for the...
Scotty: [forcefully]Do you accept my resignation or not?
James T. Kirk: I DO!... I do. You are relieved Mr. Scott.
Scotty: [after a long pause]Jim... for the love of God, do not use those torpedoes. [hands Kirk his PADD and walks away, Keenser does the same]
