Static Shock Season 1 quotes

Look at this; it’s a review of your new CD.

I don’t read my reviews.

Don’t or can’t?

Look I’m dyslexic all right. They put me in a special learning program. They showed me techniques.

Like what?

A lot of stuff. You change words into something you can feel instead of look at, but it takes patience. I could never sit still as a kid.

So you dropped out of the program?

I felt dumb! Don’t tell anyone about this ok?

You’re not dumb! Look what you made of yourself. A hero. A famous musician. But…

But I messed up.

I was gonna say ‘but you can’t give in’. You said you can read, it just takes some work. Do the work.

The fusion engine, that you secured for us, will power our brainchild - 'The Disaster Matrix'...

I named it.

...We can use it to channel enormous energies to any section of the city, reducing it to rubble.

Or we can de-rail trains, crack airport runways.

We’ll hold all of Dakota for ransom.

We’ll make millions.

(about his Dyslexia) Thanks for not saying anything.

When are you gonna say something?

Contain 22-1 mark 7.

Contain 17-2 mark 12.

(impressed) ...Voice command... Awesome. Hey Back-Pack, jam anything in the room plotting co-ordinates.

(to Specs) I should blast your butt, but that's ungentlemanly. (thinks it over again) Aw, who am I kidding?

You know, I'm pretty good at passing myself!

Okay, no more feeding spring boy anymore metal.

Time we used Plan "B".

Ok. What's Plan "B"?

Stop using Plan "A".

Check us out, V! Hangin' with Dule, protecting him wherever he goes, we're his posse!

Uh, Rich, for us to be a 'posse', he'd have to know we're following him around.

Ah, right. So, what does that make us?

Stalkers.

Man, look at him go!

Robert

You know, I was once pretty fast on the field myself.

Pops, was that back during the Jurassic age or are we talking past lives here?

You alright?

Ever since we took that dip in the lake, I got water in my ear! S'cuse me a second.

[smirks] Ah, that's better.

If this is a trick, you won't be able to run far enough.

Puff

(about Static) I don't get it. We snatch one guy, and he acts like it's the crime of the century.

Mr. Hawkins, I'm glad to see you're ok.

Robert

You can drop the act, Virgil.

You know?

Robert

Wasn't hard to figure out. Why else kidnap me to get to Static? And maybe, just maybe, in the back of my mind, I've always known.

(grabs Gear by the back of his costume) You double-crossing little WORM! I hate WORMS like you! Why don't you run a diagnostic to see what just what kinda double-dealing little WORM you are! (flys off)

Did you get my message?

Dude, you called me a worm like three times. How could I miss it?

Robert

Is that... Richie?

(coughs and deepens his voice) Er, Mr. Hawkins, you have to understand the most secret part of a superhero is his secret identity and, well, uh-

Yeah, that's Richie.

(voice cracks) Hi, Mr. H.

Sharon

Virgil!

You shrieked?

Sharon

You didn't take the garbage out last night.

Is that what smells? I figured you were trying a new recipe.
