The softest one, but the hardest one. Ignoring the tidbits of time travel and a bunch of bugs, the selling point of this one is the 23rd century astronauts going back to the 1980s to go whaling with a load of jokes. I can't go into details at all, I just laughed. Sure enough, even-numbered episodes are more exciting. BTW, does the idea of whales have anything to do with the dolphins in #The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy? And all kinds of cold humor

The happiest episode, a group of people walking on the streets of the 20th century is too happy.
Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home quotes
-
Scotty: I noticed you're still working with polymers.
Dr. Nichols: Still? What else would I be working with?
Scotty: Aye, what else, indeed? I'll put it another way. How thick would a piece of your Plexiglass need to be, at 60 feet by 10 feet, to withstand the pressure of 18,000 cubic feet of water?
Dr. Nichols: Oh, that's easy. Six inches. We carry stuff that big in stock.
Scotty: I, uh, noticed. Now suppose, just suppose, I were to show you a way to manufacture a wall that would do the same job, but be only one inch thick. Would that be worth something to you, eh?
Dr. Nichols: You're joking.
McCoy: Perhaps the professor could use your computer.
Dr. Nichols: Please.

Dr. Gillian Taylor: Well, Admiral, that was the briefest dinner I've ever had in my life, and certainly the biggest cockamamie fish story I've ever heard.
Kirk: You asked. Now, you tell me something. George and Gracie's transmitter, what's the radio frequency?
Dr. Gillian Taylor: Sorry, that's classified. Look, I don't have a clue who you are, really. You wouldn't want to show me around your spaceship, would you?
Kirk: That wouldn't be my first choice, no.
Dr. Gillian Taylor: Well, there we are.
Kirk: Let me tell you something. I'm here to bring two humpbacks into the 23rd century. If I have to, I'll go to the open sea to get them. I'd much rather have yours. It's better for me, it's better for you, it's better for them. Think about it.
Dr. Gillian Taylor: [he gets out of her truck's passenger seat] Who are you?
Kirk: Think about it, but don't take too long. I'm out of time. If you change your mind, this is where I'll be.
Dr. Gillian Taylor: Here? In the park?
