Yeah. Commander Willard Decker:
May I ask why? Captain James T. Kirk:
My experience. Five years out there, dealing with unknowns like this. My familiarity with the Enterprise, its crew. Commander Willard Decker:
Admiral, this is an almost totally new Enterprise. You don't know her a tenth as well as I do! Captain James T. Kirk:
That's why you're staying aboard
