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.
