    Scotty also does this in Star Trek III...

    Scotty: "If you don't have eight weeks, I can do it for you in two."

    Kirk: "Mr. Scott, have you always multiplied your repair estimates by a factor of four?"

    Scotty: "Certainly, sir. How else can I keep my reputation as a miracle worker?"

      It was Kirk’s reply of : “understood” that always makes me laugh.

      …. just the image of Kirk realizing Mr. Scott has been lying to him for decades.
