In this episode: Beast (6), Shadowcat (2), Iceman (2), Professor Xavier (1), Spyke (1)

[After Beast returns from his chaotic nightly rampage.]

I don't know what to say... I am so sorry about this.

Well, it was bound to happen.

What do you mean?

What was it the last time... You attended a drive-in movie, hidden in the bed of a pick-up truck?

Journey? Where can you go when you can't be seen by the public?

(to Professor Xavier, after he is advised to go on a trip to find himself.)

[After Beast announces his pick of students for an impromptu field trip to Redwood Forest.]

Me? But my grades are improving!

Uh-huh. With the speed of a glacier. You, too, Evan.

Aw, come on, teach! Can't I do my studying somewhere else! Like going to the park! There's green stuff there!

(Beast looms in on Spyke in a mock-threatening way, cornering him by the door.)

...do these forests have sidewalks?

[After Sunspot finishes covering the X-Jet in an ample amount of branches.]

WWolfsbane

It was plenty camouflaged!

SSunspot

A few more branches couldn't hurt.

WWolfsbane

I smell overachiever issues.

Send me an e-mail, and I'll take your complaint under "advisement".

(to Spyke, as the latter protests at the beginning of the trek.)

You can't go back either, huh?

(to a stranded fish beached on the side of a river.)

[After Beast assigns the students to find five different types of rocks.]

WWolfsbane

Five samples. I guess a go getter like you will bring back ten.

SSunspot

Maybe twelve. You see, the first five are like a cake; the rest are like the icing. And I like icing.

WWolfsbane

I thought you were putting on a little weight.

BFBig Foot Fanatic

...is he wearing trunks?

(about Beast, whom has been accidentally caught on tape and mistaken as Big Foot.)

BFBig Foot Fanatic

It looks like we've got ourselves the real McCoy.

(about Beast, after the expedition successfully captures him.)

BFBig Foot Research Scientist

This is a wonder of Nature! It is our duty to respect it!

H1Hunter 1

What? It's not like we're going to make a rug out of it!

H2Hunter 2

A coat, maybe, but not a rug.

(about the captive Beast, after the hunters comment how much Big Foot will be worth in the market.)

BFBig Foot Research Scientist

Good Heavens! You can speak!

(to a captive Beast, as the latter attempts to strike up a friendly intellectual conversation with him.)

[Two hunters are searching for Bigfoot, using whistles that replicate animal calls]

H1Hunter 1

Where I can I get one of those?

H2Hunter 2

Bigfoot trading post. Ask for Mulder

[Beast swings in the trees above them while The X-Files theme plays]
