[About parachuting from a plane]
This does not seem wise, O'Neill!
Col. O'NeillI said it was easy, not wise.
It's not my thing.
Col. O'NeillWhat isn't?
People. I mean, give me a million-year-old fossil and I'll tell you what it had for breakfast, but I'm not too good at people. They're too recent.
Trust in me, O'Neill.
Col. O'NeillWhat if I'm not O'Neill?
Then I was not talking to you.
[an Unas alpha is approaching Jackson, clearly with the intent of attacking him. SG-1 raise their weapons]
Kaa kedka! [he cowers somewhat; the Unas stops short, surprised that Jackson speaks his language]
What did you just say?
I think I just asked him not to kill me.
Col. O'NeillAnd they're buying that?
[as the Unas alpha begins to growl] No, I don't think so.
Col. O'NeillTook you long enough!
You are welcome O'Neill.
Col. O'NeillHey, what have you got?
The analysis of the atmosphere in the wake of the ship shows a high incidence of Sulphur Dioxide.
Col. O'NeillChemical warfare?
I don’t think so sir. Take a look at this.
Col. O'NeillOh yeah! Little fuzzy orange things!
They're Microbes, sir...
The question is, will they listen?
Col. O'NeillNo, the real question is, will they have ears?
A top secret government program involving instantaneous travel to other solar systems by means of a device known as a Stargate!
Col. O'NeillSounds like a good idea for a TV show…if you're into that sort of thing.
Does anyone know what this meeting's about?
No but I hope it's important. I was right in the middle of translating that cuneiform tablet we found on P30-255.
I still have to finish recalibrating MALP 3KA's sensors for long term reconnaissance on P5X-327.
I was unable to complete my Kel no'reem.
Col. O'Neill[after a pause] I was just about to...do...something important.
Colonel, let's not play games. If it isn't true then why did you come here?
Col. O'NeillThe truth! There is a top-secret government program called project Stargate.
I knew it!
Col. O'NeillBut it has nothing to do with space travel.
What does it have to do with?
Col. O'Neill[conspiratorially] Magnets!
What the hell is that supposed to mean?
Col. O'Neill[dramatically] No…I've already said too much!
So, you still don't believe me? I'm an Alien!
Col. O'NeillYou look pretty human to me.
I can't explain it Colonel, I just have a gut feeling, like we have something in common.
Col. O'NeillWell, that's very flattering, but I'm not an alien.
Col. O'NeillHow do ya lose a spaceship?
Well, my memory isn't so good. Sometimes, I get a little confused. I think it might be the medication.
Col. O'NeillYeah, well, there ya go.
Don't ya wanna know how I found you?
Col. O'NeillUh… OK!
In your car, I noticed a map of the Sleep-Rite Motel Chain. I checked every one in town.
Col. O'NeillThere's two!
I'm surprised a man in your position wouldn't take more precautions to maintain your cover.
Col. O'NeillMarty I'm not undercover!
You think I'm making this all up. Look at this.
[Martin shows O'Neill a broken toothpick, O'Neill takes it and looks at it]
Col. O'NeillYes… It all makes sense now.
