* This line from [=McCoy=] to a prejudiced Vulcan author who apparently doesn't know how to translate Terran:
-->Though I must say, I enjoyed your article on the evolution of blood sacrifice in human cultures. That is ''not'' what major-league football is for...
* Amanda's insults toward Sarek [[SlapSlapKiss during their courtship]] when she thinks he's being too smug. This is also true InUniverse, where one of these made Sarek lose his breath from laughing so hard.

* This line from [=McCoy=]'s response to the referendum:
** To his utter shock,
[=McCoy=] finds out that T'Pau requested ''he'' speak at the referendum. When Kirk asks him whether he will, the doctor answers with exasperated resignation that he's never turned down a chance to debate a prejudiced Vulcan author who apparently and he can hardly refuse an argument with the entire planet.
** Later on, as the doctor warms up to the idea, he wonders aloud if Vulcan has ever heard an old-fashioned Southern filibuster. [[VitriolicBestBuds Spock]] deadpans that he'd better not exhaust the audience's patience with too many amazing examples of illogic if he
doesn't know how want to translate Terran:
-->Though I must say, I enjoyed your article on
start the evolution secession vote early.
* Sarek being NotSoStoic in the face
of blood sacrifice in human cultures. That is ''not'' what major-league football is for...

-->"I want popcorn," [=McCoy=] said suddenly.
-->The young woman looked up at him from underneath very pertly slanted brows and said calmly, "No eating in the auditorium, sir. Next?"
-->They headed into the auditorium. Spock was looking bemused: [=McCoy=] was grinning. "You cut it out," Jim said. "Just for that, you're not getting the aisle seat."
-->"Spoilsport."
* Recurring character K's'l'tk opens up the referendum - Vulcans show their respect for diversity by allowing the least humanoid species present to open proceedings, and she's ''a giant glass spider'' - and gets into an argument with an arrogant ("Tenured," [=McCoy=] figures) Vulcan about the very nature of reality itself... which K's'l'tk wins by ''biting that arrogant Vulcan on the leg''.

** When Sarek and Amanda use test-tube procedures to conceive a child, there's a tense moment among the Vulcan med techs working on making sure the embryo survives. When the process proves successful, the narrator lets us know there was no excessive celebration - they were after all Vulcans - but that "there was an insufferable air of smugness around the labs for the next few months."
