Stargate Atlantis quotes

[drinking coffee] I don't know what happened, it just stopped working. I got some little functionality back, it's still isn't doing everything it used to.

Dr. Zelenka

Yes, well, maybe if people stop insisting on having food and liquid in such close proximity to the TEN THOUSAND YEAR OLD EQUIPMENT!

Hey! We're very careful! We're not the problem here!

Dr. Zelenka

[sarcastically] Ah, yes. Uh-huh!

Dr. Zelenka

What did you touch?

Nothing! I didn't touch anything.

Dr. Zelenka

Ježiši, já s těma hercema nemůžu dělat! (meaning "Jesus, I can't work with these actors" in Czech)

Dr. McKay

Suddenly I feel so tired.

You're a scientist. Are you not used to this by now?

Dr. McKay

Ah, but my kind of science is the good kind of science. The kind you can do sitting on a chair or ... laying on a couch.

It's a layout of the Sudarian villages. The walls of this monastery have protected it for ten thousand years.

Dr. McKay

It's beautiful.

It is. [looks at him] And yet my eye is drawn elsewhere.

Dr. McKay

Elsewhere?

Dr. McKay

[to John, Aiden and Teyla] I’m heading to bed.

Maj. Sheppard

Ah, which bed might that be?

Rodney

Huh, what?

Think Allina might have a little crush on you, Doc.

Dr. McKay

She does?

Teyla

It is very clear to us all.

Dr. McKay

It is?

Maj. Sheppard

To everyone but you, apparently.

Dr. Beckett

I can barely make it to the main land and back without crashing. For the last time, I'm a medical doctor, not a bloody fighter pilot!

Dr. McKay

Look, someone get me a knife. [Genii just stand there] You all have guns, someone get me a knife.

Dr. Weir

So, recommendations?

Dr. Beckett

Other than panic?

Dr. Weir

Other than panic, yes.

Dr. Beckett

What shall I say?

Uh…uh…"I miss you"? "I wish you were here"?

Dr. Beckett

I wish who was here?

I don't know. Who do you wish was here?

Dr. Beckett

Nobody! I wish I wasn't bloody here!

You didn't say anything that would require security clearance, did you?

Dr. Zelenka

Security clearance?

Dr. McKay

[adjusts hair] Right. And in five, four, three-

Dr. McKay

[dramatically] This is Doctor Rodney McKay speaking to you from my base of operations in the lost city of Atlantis, located deep within the Pegasus galaxy. I record this message on the eve of our darkest hour. As I speak, an alien armada of biblical proportions is on its way, bent - dare I say hellbent, in keeping with the metaphor – on our destruction. We will do our best to stave off their attack but I am afraid that defeat is all but inevitable. I, and the other members of my team, face the most horrific deaths imaginable, as our very lives are sucked from our chests in a, in a, horrific - Okay, uh, start again. Start again.

Dr Beckett

I ran every test I could on all of you from the get-go. Physiologically, you and your people are the same as we are. I have no explanation for any of your special super-powers.

Dr Beckett

I've seen you fight, my dear.

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 McKay

I got a little... [referring to energy spike]

[jokingly] A little what? McKay! You got a little what? [Sheppard looks at Ford disapprovingly] What? Oh, it's okay when you guys make fun of me then, huh?
