Gargoyles · Season 1
Raven! Prepare to do battle!
Control yourself, Goliath, I have no fight with you.
He's right. I must battle Raven. Even if I die trying.
What is this, merit badge test night? Oh well, better make sure it's an uneven fight. Totem beasts trapped in wood, the time has come to... do some good.
[fighting Natsilane] Guess this subject didn't come up in college, eh, boy?
They say a man's home is his castle, and what fun would a castle be without a dungeon?
Sevarius, your idea of fun would give Frankenstein nightmares!
If it gets any more saccharine in there, I'm going to put a finger down my throat.
[time-traveling back to 1941 over London, Goliath narrowly misses being hit by a Spitfire]
Clive, did you see that?
See what, Douglas?
...Ah, nothing. The night sky playing tricks. All right then, chaps. Back to base.
[Elsewhere]
You know, old boy, that could've been a bit nasty.
You saved my life... It was supposed to work the other way.
[momentarily confused, then] Think nothing of it. I always hoped there were other gargoyles about. You look like Scottish stock to me. Come to help with the war, have you?
You could say that.
Good show!
[over tea] I'm afraid we can't offer you sugar. The war, you know.
There is a great deal of hardship, then?
Oh, yes. It's been terrible for us.
[Angrily Griff stands and throws down his teacup.]
For us? We're not important! Unless the Nazis are stopped here and now, the future of the entire world is in jeopardy!
Yes, yes, but we belong down here, protecting our home. If the fight comes to us, so be it.
Leo's right. The Nazis are a human problem.
What do you think, Goliath?
I do not presume to advise... but in my experience, human problems become gargoyle problems.
Finally, someone talking sense!
I'd sure like to know how you got here, but I'm programmed to shoot first and ask questions later.
Hear me, Guardian of the Gate. I demand a favor.
I grant but one boon, mortal. And it will be given to you as it is given to everyone: when your time has come.
Death is always pointless. That is the point.
I demand reparation! My son was cruelly and unfairly taken from me!
On the contrary, death is the ultimate fairness. Rich and poor, young and old - all are equal in death. You would not like to see the Jackal God play favourites. Think what you are doing: all over the world there is birth, but no death. Our planet cannot support so many lives at once.
I told you before: everyone is welcome here in the Labyrinth! And the weak are to be protected, not exploited.
Aah, who died and made you king?
If you don't know anything, why were you shooting at us?
Do I really need an excuse to have a good time in my own home?
Goliath [feeling around his neck]: The Eye... Where is the Eye?
Where it always belonged, gargoyle - with the original owner. I apologize for any trouble I caused in my efforts to reclaim it. It seems I'm out of practice dealing directly with mortals.
I owe you an apology as well. It seems I am unaccustomed to dealing with a god.... or being one.
Then we have all gained rare enlightment this night: the Eye's standard gift.
[Sees the Easter Island statues for the 1st time] ...Mmm, what a peculiar sight. Elisa, do you have any idea where we are? [No response] ...Elisa?
She fell asleep.
Good. She guards us in daylight, and forgets to rest herself.
[Abruptly woken-up] How did I end up here? The Skiff! Where's the skiff?
