   There's no such scene.   
      
   Pike wrote a paper on the attack, that's about it. You would think that when    
   he mentions the 800 lives GK saved that besides JTK and his mother he would    
   have said he saved his life as well.   
      
   There's a good thread at    
   http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Talk:Christopher_Pike#Cadet_on_the_USS_Kelvin    
   that explains exactly what Pike said. A number of people have misunderstood    
   or misheard what Pike said.   
      
   Pike: For my dissertation I was assigned the USS Kelvin.   
      
   Dissertation: A long essay on a particular subject, esp. one written as a    
   requirement for the Doctor of Philosophy degree.   
      
   I hate to be the bearer of bad memory bubbles busting.
