As a general rule, I like to keep daring rescues down to one a day.
All S1
S1 E15Unfinished Business
[Sheppard, Ronon and McKay are in a Puddle Jumper and trying to get into Michael´s ship through the dart bay doors which begin to close again]
It's closing.
I see that.
It's closing quickly.
[annoyed] I got it.
[Teyla is giving birth on Michael's ship]
So, ummmmm, how are you doing?
The pain is very great.
Oh...yeah I-I had a kidney stone once....incredibly painful....same kinda thing I'm told so yeah I hear you. Actually my cat and I had one at the same time and we were not fun to be around I'll tell you that much. He got his because he was eating too much dry cat food and I got mine because I wasn't drinking enough liquids, so that's why you see me drinking lots of water because I have no desire to experience that kind of pain again.
[panting while talking] Fascinating story. Thank you...
[At the prospect of having to deliver Teyla's baby]
Look, can't you just hold it in?
[in regards to Michael's Cruiser] Major Marks, please make that ship go away.
(Sheppard is about to go to surgery and passes Teyla)
What are you gonna name the kid?
Well, if it's all right with you, I was thinking of Torren John, after my father and after you.
Really? Wow.
McKay's gonna hate that.
I would be very honored.
All you have to do is lie still and let me play with your insides. [to Sheppard regarding his surgery].
Today he's decided that he will only sleep as long as I hold him and keep moving. I've already walked half the city and back again.
My parents used to put me in the car. My dad would have to drive around and around and around the block at three o'clock in the morning!
Hmm. That would be lovely. At least I'd be sitting down!
[Woolsey has just arrived on the Daedalus to take command of Atlantis.]
[authoritatively] Well, then. [He hesitates for several seconds, unable to think of anything more to say, then looks at Sheppard.] I think I'll start by going over copies of all your latest reports. [turning to McKay] Yours as well, Doctor.
What, right now?
I've been out of touch on the Daedalus for three weeks. I'd like to be brought up to speed as quickly as possible. We can have a full briefing in the morning.
[Woolsey leaves the control room]
It's a nice speech. Very inspiring.
Kneel.
You know, what'd be really creepy and unexpected is if you knelt instead. [Tyre kicks him down] I guess not.
[After Sheppard notices the Alternate Daedalus has powered up]
[Over radio] Rodney, was that you?
[Smug] Yes. Why, do you think we have a ghost on board?
[McKay literally jumps when he hears something fall to the ground, then realizes it was only Ronon]
Will you please not touch anything?!
[Sheppard tells McKay that they've jumped above a red giant]
[over radio] Are you sure?
Well, we're not imagining it Rodney.
Let me transfer the sensors down to the station, at least I could- Whoa... you're definitely not imagining that...
Thanks for the vote of confidence!
They're in weapons range!
[the ship starts taking damage]
Return fire!
I'm trying!
[the alien fighters keep closing, Ronon starts bashing the console]
Easy, Chewie! Those buttons are your friends! Just keep trying!
[yells] I'M TRYING!!!
[the engine controls go down]
That's it, sublight's gone for good this time!
[the Alternate Daedalus crawls to a halt when the attackers suddenly start to explode]
What the hell was that?
F-302s. It's Atlantis!
[a massive dogfight begins]
[nervous] What's happening?
We got some help from some friends, guess we're on the right side after all-
ASAlternate Sheppard
Daedalus, this is Lieutenant Colonel John Sheppard, do you read? [Sheppard and Ronon look at each other confused] Daedalus, do you read?
Yeah, Daedalus, uh, this is Daedalus, come in.
ASAlternate Sheppard
Who-Who is this?
It's a long story!
ASAlternate Sheppard
Well, whoever you are you saved our asses when you took out their main weapons. I think the least we can do is return the favor.
I'd much appreciate it.
Uh, Sheppard...
Oh, crap! [takes out a fighter that was trying to crash into the bridge]
ASAlternate Sheppard
Sorry about that, one of 'em got through. Nice shooting, though.
Oh, thanks...
ASAlternate Sheppard
Alright, that's the last of them. So, what happens now?
Well, we go our own ways.
ASAlternate Sheppard
Just like that?
Pretty much.
ASAlternate Sheppard
Well, thing is, we do have a few questions. See, the Daedalus we know was destroyed two years ago in a battle with the Replicators.
Sorry to hear that, but... this isn't our Daedalus either, we're just... borrowing it for a while.
ASAlternate Sheppard
OK, I have no idea what that means.
Well, like I said, it's a long story.
ASAlternate Sheppard
All right, Daedalus, good luck.
Thank you, Colonel. And one last thing: it's been a pleasure. [Teyla smiles] You're obviously a man of great integrity here, and a dedicated commander, and a very skilled pilot.
[Ronon frowns at him.]
ASAlternate Sheppard
Well, that's funny. I was gonna say the same to you. [Sheppard smiles]
[McKay is hit by an alien's weapon]
Oh, OW! OW!! OWW!!! [ducks into cover] I GOT SHOT!!! Ow...
Thought we got them all! [fires]
Apparently not! [fires]
