Quote #7
SAAVIK: You lied.
SPOCK: I exaggerated.
Little joke, Spock? Again, we're reminded that Saavik is now a member of this merry little band, even though she's much younger.
Quote #8
CHEKOV: Could you use another hand, Admiral?
KIRK: Man the weapons console, Mister Chekov.
Here's a much more serious demonstration of friendship. Chekov's betrayal clearly looms large in the man's mind, even though he was compelled by the space eel in his ear and really didn't have a choice. He wants to make amends to the people he betrayed…and Kirk, mensch that he is, accepts his friend's help without a second thought.

McCOY: Are you out of your Vulcan mind? No human can tolerate the radiation that's in there!
SPOCK: As you are so fond of observing, Doctor, I'm not human.
McCOY: You're not going in there!
Spock and McCoy fight like cats and dogs, and McCoy was awfully casual with the whole "green-blooded, inhuman" thing just a short while ago. This moment confirms that McCoy never lets his temper get in the way of the deep and abiding friendship he has with this man.
