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.
