Post Dumb Star Trek question
This has been bugging me for a week or so and all the mighty search engines, integrative or not, have failed me.

Is the phrase "star trek" ever uttered in a canonical ST episode or movie? Not counting Roddenberry's bogus lyrics to the theme?

P.S. That site doesn't have a transcript for the latest Star Trek movie, unsurprisingly.

In the final TNG episode "All Good Things...," there's the following exchange between Q and Picard that comes pretty close (this is from IMDB, and it matches what I remember):

Capt. Picard: We are what we are. And we're doing the best we can. It is not for you to set the standards by which we shall be judged!
Q: Oh, but it is, and we have. Time may be eternal, Captain, but our patience is not. It's time to put an end to your trek through the stars; make room for other more worthy species.

Isn't that the film that's practically slapstick all the way through? ("I am programmed to serve as a flotation device!"?) So I guess if they were going to throw it in, that's the one.
