TV show quotes
[In an attempt to save Carter from her captor Anateo, Vala uses the Odyssey's damaged beaming technology]
Uh, where is she?
Well, I couldn’t be sure, so I just beamed out the only other lifesign in the room instead.
Okay. Where is he?
[Vala looks out the window, where Anateo is drifting in space]
[following Vala’s gaze] Well, Sam did say it was risky.
Yeah, we swept the ship twice. Rounded up fourteen men in total, but not Solek. Vala had to beam him out of the hold where the crew was being held, so we have no way of knowing for sure where he ended up.
Did you check the sewage reservoir?
Yeah, no lifesigns. Ew.
Uh, you should probably prepare to fire.
For the record, I'm always prepared to fire. I just have to press this button here.
Right..I just—I thought that's what you're supposed to say, so...
I know.
[Vala has just powered up the hyperdrive by shoving a crystal into a hole that doesn’t fit it]
How'd you do that?
Honestly, I don’t know, that almost never normally works.
You are the biggest fool in two galaxies!
But, Netan. (turns around to fellow orannians) I screwed up.
Shield failure is imminent.
Damn you, Cam Mitchell.
[Tenat's Ha'tak is destroyed]
Look, I know you have no reason to trust us any more than those guys.
I haven't seen you shoot anyone.
...That's an excellent point.
You should come with us.
My place is here. I'll be fine. I'll blame everything on you.
Good plan!
[SG-1 is trying to rescue a little boy trapped behind a portcullis]
He's tiny. Tell him to squeeze through the bars.
Assist us, or I will squeeze you through these bars.
[SG-1, Ba'al, and Adria are blocked by a wall of fire]
Why don't you do something? You're the Orici. You're supposedly possessed of significant powers. So snuff out the flame and get us on our way.
My abilities don't work that way.
Of course, how does that Earth saying go? "All flash, no photo?"
Actually, it's "All flash, no substance."
I prefer my version.
Would you care for a demonstration?
[Ba'al stares her down]
[haughtily] Taking your life would be a waste of my time.
Which I suppose would be put to better use complaining.
Oh, geez, why don't you two just get a room?
I'm sorry, aren't you the one who knows the dragon's secret name? It's time to earn your keep.
Ah, yes. I may have exaggerated about that, slightly. Anyway, you didn't think that just by calling out its name, you'd suddenly be able to control it?
I don't know. Name magic is common in most mythologies. To know something's secret name is to steal its power.
So what are we supposed to do, start guessing?
Darrel, the dragon.
How about Smokey?
Perhaps Puff?
[annoyed]: Will you just give me a minute?
[Merlin revives from stasis]
Where am I?
Good question.
[to Carter] You look familiar. [pauses as he scrutinizes Carter] Guinivere! [hugging Carter] Oh my dear, it's been too long.
Uh, good to see you too.
[to Mitchell] Percival! [to Jackson] And Galahad! Oh brave knights, fortune indeed does smile upon me to see your faces again.
Looks like Merlin's drawbridge no longer goes all the way across the moat, if you catch my meaning.
What's that? Mordred? I might have known it.
We're wasting our time with this old fool! We need to get back to the gate so I can start reprogramming—
Be silent!
[Merlin waves his hand, and Ba'al loses the ability to speak]
Well how do you like that? The old boy still has some old tricks up his sleeve.
You have an extraordinary understanding of the ways of ascended beings.
That's because I used to be one.
The Human race cannot have evolved that far in only a thousand years.
That's because I had some help. Her name was Oma Desala.
[understanding] Oh, of course.
[Merlin has died, and the team is deciding what to do]
I told you, I could reprogram the dialing device.
[SG-1 looks at Ba'al]
His little trick with my vocal chords expired at the same time he did.
Yet another reason to mourn his passing.
[regarding Daniel] Hey, you have to tell him that he doesn’t have to do this. He’ll listen to you.
What team have you been on?
