How could something as big as Atlantis just sink?
I'm sure the passengers on the Titanic were asking themselves the same question.
[The science team is trying to come up with a solution to a problem while being very short on time]
You're right. If only we had a magical tool that could slow down time. I foolishly left mine on Earth - did you bring yours?
You know, you're not pleasant when you're like this, McKay.
I'm always like this.
My point exactly.
The city can handle that?
Yes. Theoretically.
Like "dinosaurs turned into birds" theoretically or "theory of relativity" theoretically?
[looks confused, since there is no "hierarchy" of theories] What? Um, somewhere between.
McKay will come up with something.
I will try, but despite what you all may think, I am not Superman.
[Sheppard looks around]
Was anyone seriously thinking that?
[Weir, Teyla and the other scientist shake their heads 'No']
No sir.
Never.
Wait a second, are these things even close to a transporter?
Uh... yes. Elizabeth's is.
And mine?
It's a brisk walk away.
And by "brisk" you mean "far"?
[nods] And by "walk" I mean "run".
Bacon.
The one thing you wish you brought with you is bacon.
Hey, it's the food that makes other food worth eating
You wish you brought bacon to another galaxy?
Well, find another problem with it! I—tell him that the power-loop interface isn't jiving with your walkabout! Something!
[incredulous] "Isn't jiving?!"
Rodney, you get my point.
You said this would work.
I don't know if you noticed or not but I'm an extremely arrogant man who tends to think all of his plans will work! [Kolya punches him]
The dots don't tell us much about who's who. How do we know which one's the Major?
He'll be the dot getting rid of all the other dots.
Anything I see moving is gonna get shot.
[concerned] So what if it's the Major?
Then he'll get hit with a Wraith Stunner instead of a P-90.
What if he sees us first?
He'll probably hear you first.
Are you telling me to shut up again?
Again.
Nice work, Rodney.
Did you ever doubt me?
Yes. Several times.
Try to fly this baby in a straight line.
I am flying in a straight line.
[HUD comes up, showing that the jumper is zig-zagging]
Not so much.
Well, in space, all motion is relative.
He's aboard my ship.
What are you, Captain Kirk?! What good's it gonna do him?
I don't know, maybe he can hot-wire the thing.
If we're going to play the waiting game, the guy who's been around for ten thousand years is gonna win!
You need me to get off this planet! I'm the only one that can fly that ship!
I will use your dead hands to operate its controls!
