And this is what ye have shipped for, men! to chase that white whale on both sides of land, and over all sides of earth, till he spouts black blood and rolls fin out. Aye, aye," he shouted with a terrific, loud, animal sob, like that of a heart-stricken moose "Aye, aye! it was that accursed white whale that razed me made a poor pegging lubber of me for ever and a day!" Then tossing both arms, with measureless imprecations he shouted out: "Aye, aye! and I'll chase him round Good Hope, and round the Horn, and round the Norway Maelstrom, and round perdition's flames before I give him up. "Captain Ahab, I have heard of Moby Dick-but it was not Moby Dick that took off thy leg?" "Who told thee that?" cried Ahab then pausing "Aye, Starbuck aye, my hearties all round it was Moby Dick that dismasted me Moby Dick that brought me to this dead stump I stand on now. Spock knew he would die on that mission and Kirk quoted after his death that the message was "It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done it is a far, far better rest that I go to than I have ever known." "Captain Ahab," said Starbuck, who, with Stubb and Flask, had thus far been eyeing his superior with increasing surprise, but at last seemed struck with a thought which somewhat explained all the wonder. Chekov had noticed a copy of "Moby Dick" in Khan's living space in the cargo containers on Ceti Alpha V whereas Spock had given Kirk an antique copy of "A Tale of Two Cities" where Kirk had inquired of the message. Similarly, Joachim urges Khan to flee from Regula II and not to divert to hunt Kirk. The actual line from the book is more attributable as "I'll chase him round Good Hope, and round the Horn, and round the Norway Maelstrom, and round perdition's flames before I give him up." In the book's setting, Ahab has come up on deck after the new crew have made their marks on the contract tells about his injury from the wooden peg he wears over his stump that causes him pain when this becomes obvious they may divert to hunt the leviathan. I'll chase him 'round the moons of Nibia and 'round the Antares Maelstrom and 'round perdition's flame before I give him up!" This is a modified quote from Herman Melville's novel "Moby Dick" (1851). When Khan is in the center chair of the Reliant, he says to Joachim "He tasks me. Leonard Nimoy objected, and the result was what you see. Radiation causes blood vessels to burst and Spock was written to be covered in green blood. Khan then beams out with the Genesis torpedo. Khan and his supermen were to have had PSI powers similar to the Talosians from Зоряний шлях: The Cage (1966), and Kirk beats them by simply not believing in it. Khan and Kirk were to have fought in the Genesis cave foyer. "You thought this was Ceti Alpha VI." The unstable orbits caused the explosion of Ceti Alpha VI. The idea was for planets V and VI to have varying orbits similar to Neptune and Pluto where they would cross in and out of each other's orbits. The Ceti system was always a binary star system, hence the Alpha. That was written out and became the "you never told your captain the tale" sequence on the planet. He wrote a scene where Chekov, on the Reliant, calls up data for the Ceti Alpha system, and remembers Khan and tells Terrell. In a Starlog interview titled "The Man Who Killed Spock", after this film was released, Harve Bennett said that: 1.
