Jack Darby quotes from Transformers: Prime

Jack Darby

I've been raised to be responsible. To my schoolwork, to my mom, my job.

Jack

I may not have stinger-proof metal skin, Arcee, but in a pinch, I can use my multi-function pocket knife and magnesium fire-starter to cook up some freeze-dried mac and cheese.

Jack Darby

Friend of yours?

Arcee

Family.

What are they?

Jack Darby

Talking cars that turn into robots. Or the other way around.

Robots who get dizzy?

Robots with emotions....

Jack Darby

Robots...who can die.

Jack Darby

Well, if I don't call my mom, like, now, I'm pretty sure the cops will be out looking for me.

Optimus Prime

Have you broken a law?

Arcee

Grab your helmet, it's go time.

Jack Darby

Aww, it's Saturday!

Arcee

You can watch cartoons back at base with Bumblebee.

Jack Darby

Tchh. Cartoons? I'm sixteen.

Arcee

Maybe it needs one of these doohickeys... [Holds up a part]

Jack

You're a motorcycle, Arcee. Shouldn't you know how to build a motorcycle engine?

Arcee

You're a human, Jack. Can you build me a small intestine?

Jack

Partners don't ditch partners.

Arcee

Get this straight, you're not my partner, you're a liability!

Jack

I don't believe you! I can see it in your eyes: you're afraid, Arcee. And you're never afraid.

Bulkhead

Optimus... destroyed the Omega Lock.

Ratchet

What?! You did--?!

Optimus Prime

What was necessary. There was no time for another prolonged battle. Not with Earth in imminent danger.

Ratchet

So you destroyed the only device in any universe capable of restoring our home?! Optimus... we needed that.

You weren't there, Doc. And it's not your place to second-guess a battlefield decision.

Ratchet

IT MOST CERTAINLY IS! THERE HAD TO BE ANOTHER WAY!

Jack

It wasn't that simple, Ratchet.

Raf

Megatron was using the Omega Lock to attack the Earth.

Miko

Optimus saved our planet!

Ratchet

WHAT ABOUT OUR PLANET?! All of our struggles, and energon spilled, and countless sacrifices - for nothing?!

Arcee

Right decision or wrong, what's done is done. But we have another problem here on this world. The Cons just changed the rules when they put Jack, Miko and Raf into play.
