attitude
Christopher Pike: "Starfleet's mandate is to explore and observe, not to interfere."
Spock: "Had the mission gone according to plan, Admiral, the indigenous species would never have been aware of our interference."
Christopher Pike: "That's a technicality."
Spock: "I am Vulcan, sir. We embrace technicality."
Christopher Pike: "Are you giving me attitude, Spock?"
Spock: "I am expressing multiple attitudes simultaneously. To which are you referring?"
