Saavik:
Admiral, may I ask you a question?
Kirk:
What's on your mind, Lieutenant?
Saavik:
The Kobayashi Maru, sir.
Kirk:
Are you asking me if we're playing out that scenario now?
Saavik:
On the test, sir. Will you tell me what you did? I would really like to know.
McCoy:
Lieutenant, you are looking at the only Starfleet cadet who ever beat the no-win scenario.
Saavik:
How?
Kirk:
I reprogrammed the simulation so it was possible to rescue the ship.
Saavik:
What?
David Marcus:
He cheated.
Kirk:
I changed the conditions of the test. I got a commendation for original thinking. I don't like to lose.
Saavik:
Then you never faced that situation. Faced death.
Kirk:
I don't believe in the no-win scenario.
