Elizabeth Weir quotes from Stargate Atlantis

Dr. Weir

Well, find another problem with it! I—tell him that the power-loop interface isn't jiving with your walkabout! Something!

Dr. McKay

[incredulous] "Isn't jiving?!"

Dr. Weir

Rodney, you get my point.

Dr. Weir

Nice work, Rodney.

Dr. McKay

Did you ever doubt me?

Dr. Weir

Yes. Several times.

What my people value most is spiritual knowledge. What can your culture provide in that regard?

Dr. Weir

Earth's people don't share a single Spiritual belief - we embrace a number of different religions and philosophies: Christianity, Buddhism, Judaism, Islam -

Maj. Sheppard

Hinduism ... Kwanzaa.

Dr. McKay

All I know is she's not who she's pretending to be.

Dr. Weir

You know this because…?

Dr. McKay

What, I'm not allowed to have intuition?

Dr. Weir

You? No.

Dr. McKay

Oh.

Dr. McKay

According to the database, she's been in there for ten thousand years.

Dr. Weir

Ten thousand years?!

Maj. Sheppard

Doesn't look a day over nine thousand.

Dr. McKay

I died?!

You never gave up trying, right until the end.

Dr. McKay

[shocked] Well, a man wonders how he would choose to go out, given such dire circumstances. Now I know.

Trying to save the lives of others.

Maj. Sheppard

[smug] But ultimately failing!

Dr. McKay

[smugly grinning] Ha! Ah, the bitter taste of ultimate failure, hmm?

Maj. Sheppard

Well, if you’d just figured out how to fix the damn shield in the first place, none of us would have died.

Dr. McKay

I did everything I could, including valiantly attempting to save your sorry-

Dr. Weir

Gentlemen, focus.

Dr. Weir

So, recommendations?

Dr. Beckett

Other than panic?

Dr. Weir

Other than panic, yes.

Dr Beckett

A very small part.

Dr Weir

Which makes her about as different from us as you, because of the Ancient gene you possess.

Dr McKay

Well, and some other things.

Dr McKay

So you think this Wraith scientist was trying to make humans what, more tasty?

Dr Weir

The log seems to indicate that he was looking for a way to make the feeding process more efficient.

Dr McKay

But I thought you said they already had a number of genetic characteristics similar to humans.

Dr Beckett

They do. But they're still much closer to the bug creature that attacked Major Sheppard than to us.

Maj. Sheppard

Hey! I thought we weren't going to mention that anymore.

Dr Weir

Your theory of the Wraith evolving after the Ancients arrived in Pegasus galaxy -

Dr McKay

[in disbelief] Oh, you're kidding me!

Zelenka

Pay up.

Dr. Zelenka

Yes, well, that would certainly help – but I'm more concerned about the Ancient database – its ability to back up data. It's incredibly redundant.

Dr. Weir

'Incredibly redundant'.

Dr. Zelenka

Yeah, that one never gets old. But seriously...

Maj. Sheppard

[over radio] Atlantis base this is Sheppard.

Dr. Weir

[in disbelief] John?

Maj. Sheppard

What other Sheppards do you know?

Dr. McKay

[upon seeing his military escort, comprised of only two men] Whoa, whoa. This is my military escort?

Dr. Weir

Well, we are spread a bit thin right now.

Dr. McKay

Okay, okay. [to the escort] But remember, you have to be willing to put your life on the line for me.

Dr. Weir

Rodney!

Dr. McKay

For the Zed-PM. That's what I meant. Protect the Zed-PM at all costs. [pause] And me.

Sheppard

[is beamed to the gateroom from the Daedelaus] Hello, I'm home! [Weir hugs him, Sheppard is stunned]

Weir

Yes you are. [pause] I truly thought that-

Sheppard

Yeah, yeah, I thought the same about you for a while there. We have to stop that [referring to the fact that each thought the other had perished]

Weir

[smiling] I'd like that.
