[Khan takes a step closer to him, eyeing him critically. "Narrow minded"? Heh, perhaps he was. He is extremely skeptical that human nature has really changed that much in this future the good doctor comes from, not when it hadn't changed in the last several thousand years. Humans were like children playing with very destructive toys, all Khan had wanted to do was bring peace and order to their lives. He suspects that will always be how it is, even if humanity goes out into the stars.

But it's McCoy's refusal, and the manner of it that really gives him something to work with.] You're not a judge, but you ask me if my friends will kill others, and you use that as a reason not to save them? If someone was dying, and you knew he'd killed before, would you refuse him treatment?

[He turned and looked through the window, the thought of losing every single one of them weighing heavily on him.] We're going to leave this planet, and leave the humans to their own devices. If we already do this in your timeline, then helping us will only change the number of us who escape. I never want to return here. [Probably.

He glances over his shoulder then.] In exchange one of the people you save may be able to help you find a way back to your time. [There were, after all, a few scientists in that room.]
