Henry Deacon quotes from Eureka

Carter

Henry.

Henry

Yeah?

Carter

You're my best friend, you know?

Henry

Yeah, yeah, I know.

Jo

We just became the richest town in the world!

Henry

Well, that's one way to look at it. Uh, gold is a soft metal, so it doesn't bear the same weight as steel, so our infrastructure could be collapsing. We'd be rich, but dangerously unstable.

Jo

Like Paris Hilton?

The bugs lay eggs, hatch larvae and then seek out new hosts.

Henry

Us.

Well, how did the ancient Egyptians deal with the problem?

Zane

They killed the infected and burned their city to the ground.

Carter

Let's call that Plan B.

Carter

Keep at it, let me know what you find out. I have to go catch a nine-fingered superhero.

Henry

[nodding] Sure.

Allison

Hey, are you sure that Larry did this?

Jo

Well, he had motive, knowledge and, uh, opportunity. It's a trifecta.

Henry

But what exactly was his motive?

Jo

Well, isn't it obvious? To steal.

Henry

Yeah, but why?

Jo

Criminal mind's an enigma.

Henry

That surge in electromagnetism fed back into the strength of the amplifier, creating a loop of building energy, and voila, a new North Pole.

Lucas

I swear I had no idea.

Carter

[bending down very close to him] Well, you are gonna have to tell Santa that he needs to move his workshop.

Carter

You're here.

Henry

Yeah.

Carter

Working.

Henry

Hiding in plain sight. I mean, Eureka was always progressive, but nobody looks twice at a black mechanic. But still - oh, man, amazing, isn't it? [laughs, looks around past Eureka in awe]

Carter

You do realize that you, me, Allison and Jo are all stuck here?

Henry

And Fargo. They caught him streaking through the camp.

Carter

Of course they did.

Henry

Don't break that.

Carter

Yeah, that would suck.

Dr. Grant

Suck what?

Henry

That was a little too close to home.

Carter

Yeah. "What's the frequency, Kenneth?"

Henry

You know what they say, "Absolute power corrupts..."

Grant

Absolutely.

Jo

(Speaking to the Astreaus candidates) I said toes on the line you worthless bunch of P.H.ds! You are group Alpha. I will be attempting to train you for the physical fitness requirements of the Astraeus Project. This is my lab. You wanna go into space - (to Zane) on purpose - you gotta go through me first. Who can tell me what a push up is? [...] Why don't you all show me what a push up is? Say 50 times? Down on the ground! (to a secientist) You're a botanist right? Kiss my grass! (to Henry) Looking good Dr. Deacon.

Henry

Thank you Jo. Oh, I... uh, Ms. Lupo.

Jo

Come on Alphas! Group Bravo says you are the sorriest collection of community college rejects they've ever seen. You wanna prove them right?!? (bending down to the level of another scientist) What kind of mathematician can't get to 50?

Zane

49, 50. Anything else Ms. Lupo?

Jo

Well I say 50 more. Cupcake.

What do you say we patch you up and send you to space?

Henry

Uh... I say: when can we get started?

Grace

What's your success rate?

Oh, on people? Oh, uh, Sample size is too small to be significant. Um... healed a lot of pigs though. Truckloads... of them...
