1. "Put me on the hailing frequency Uhura!"

2. "If that's the new Bose Bluetooth Noise-cancelling Headset, the aerial looks a little flimsy"

3. "Is that your Euro adapter plug in yer pocket or are you just pleased to see me?"

1. "Yeah, call the seargent. We have an obvious 340 here. Let's not screw this up"

2. "Right, just tilt your head and...yeah, that's sure to get rid of the water in your ear."

3. From the pilot's side "Sshhh. They haven't seen us. Be real quiet and start the engine, let's get out of here."
