Connor Temple quotes from Primeval

Lester

Daphne and...Scrappy will have to take charge of the anomaly operation.

Connor

You mean us?

Lester

Unfortunately, yes. God help us.

Abby

What are you doing?

Connor

Trying to track down Leek. There's got to be a clue in his personal files.

Abby

You obviously know your way around.

Connor

Mm-hmm.

Abby

Hack into them regularly, do you?

Connor

Yeah. You'd be amazed how much Lester gets paid.

Abby

What's my middle name?

Connor

Sarah. [stops typing] You... told me that once, though, right?

Abby

No.

Connor

. . .

People like me and you...we don't get the pretty girls, Connor. We're the nerds. The losers. The uncool.

Connor

Speak for yourself. I do alright with women. What? I do! I'm just...I'm choosy.

Connor

[after inadvertently damaging the Sun Cage] I didn't do it.

Sarah

So, it just fell off by itself?

Connor

Yep.

Sarah

The Sun Cage is cursed! Anyone who touches it is doomed for life.

Connor

Really?

Sarah

Marion was the last person to touch that.

Connor

The dead one?

Sarah

I should have told you that earlier, right? Sorry about that - bad luck.

Bad luck.

Connor

That's got to be the end of the curse now, right?

Sarah

Here's hoping.

Abby

The curse?

Sarah

[to Abby] I made it up.

Abby

[amused] Don't tell him yet.

Sarah

'Course not.

Lester

[consulting Sarah Page's file] PhD in Egyptology, veteran of archaeological digs in every corner of the Middle East, and now you're giving lectures to school kids at the Museum. How'd that happen?

Sarah

Just not very good at taking orders.

Lester

Well in that case, you should fit in like a house on fire! Doctor Page, you cannot talk about anything you saw today, is that clear? Or should I have you arrested for your own safety?

Sarah

Is he always like that?

Connor

By his standards, he was being polite.

Sarah

[sarcastically, regarding Nick] Help. I've been taken hostage by an obsessive scientist.

Connor

Welcome to our world.

Danny

You tell me what you were doing at that house with your pals.

Connor

I can't do that.

Danny

Look, I know you're not a property developer, and you're not Oxbridge enough to be MI5. So, what?

Connor

One phone call. I'll clear the whole thing up! ...please?

Connor

...is that a "yeah" or a "no"?

Connor

That was childish!

Abby

Were you scared?

Connor

No...Little bit, yeah. Thought you were in trouble, didn't I?

Abby

And you came to rescue me. Thank you.

Abby

You know what, I like this place. It's fun.

Connor

That was Cutter. Told him he was right about the anomaly.

Jenny

What'd he say?

Connor

His exact words? Something along the lines of (in Scottish accent) 'Course I was right!

Abby

You still kept quiet. You did all that for me.

Connor

[Stutters] Abby - I

Abby

Connor. Shut up. [Kisses him]

Connor

Me? Terrified of being trapped in a shopping centre, with brain eating zombies. [Makes zombie noises] Imagine.

Sarah

But that's unlikely to happen, isn't it Connor?

Connor

Hey, I'm trying to work with you here, woman.

Connor

Jenny?

Jenny

Connor?

Abby

Jenny!

Jenny

Oh no, no, no, no, no, this can't be happening.

Connor

What are you doing here?

Jenny

What am I doing here? What are you doing here? [Laughs] This is a joke, right? [Pause] But, how did you know I was getting married?

Abby

Married!

Jenny

You're here, and... oh, my God, there's an anomaly!

Matt

I'm Matt Anderson.

Jenny

What am I going to tell him?

Abby

Who?

Jenny

Michael, my fiance!

Abby

Oh.

Jenny

I'm not a demanding bride, really I'm not. Rain I can handle. Wrong flowers, fine. Dinosaurs? I draw the line.

Connor

Actually, they're more like prehistoric dogs this time. Kinda cute in a not-raptor way... I'm just gonna shut up.

So, Jenny's always been pretty mysterious about her past.

Jenny

That's because my life didn't begin until I met you.

No, really, I'm interested.

Connor

Oh, it was boring really.

Abby

Yep. Just work, 9 'til 5, you know the routine.

Not really. I'm a musician.

Connor

Wow! That's cool. Are you any good at RockBand? I've got a top score of... Emily!

Emily

I can help. If I'm going to be stuck here I can't just sit around.

Abby

Emily.

Emily

Did a creature come through the gateway?

...Is this one of those team-building things?

Jenny

Yep!

Emily

What's team-building?

Connor

We should get married here.

Abby

Should we?

Connor

Well...uh...theoretically...if we were to...to ever...you know...ever go down the road of...you know...go down the road of complete...

Abby

I'm going to go get more champagne.
