Episode Quotes
 
Sheppard: All done.
McKay: (*sighs*) Oh of course.
Weir: That was quick. Hey, John, wait a minute. You've just given everyone excellent and above averages.
McKay: Ohh, can I do that?
Weir: (to McKay) No. (to Sheppard) I know this is not the most glamorous part of your job but you are in leadership positions and unfortunately that comes with administrative responsibilities.
Sheppard: Everyone who works for me is excellent and above average. You want me to lie? Because I don't think leaders should lie, Elizabeth.
 
Ellis: You should be running Atlantis, not Dr. Weir.
Sheppard: Well, then I'd be the man and, who would I have to rage against?
 
Ronon: I need to learn some science.
Sheppard: What for?
Ronon: I'm not all that useful in situations like these. If we get into a fight or need to break out of somewhere... ya know kill someone... I'm your man. But a laser attacking the city shield? I don't know where to chip in.
 
Sheppard: Well, that's why we're a team, like the Fantastic Four. It's a comic book, where superheroes fight crime and stuff. (Ronan and Teyla look confused) See, I'd be Mr. Fantastic, Ronan would be The Thing, McKay would be the Human Torch, (to Teyla) and you'd be the Invisible Woman.
Teyla: I am not invisible.
Sheppard: No, no, and McKay's not a human torch.
Teyla: Well how come you get to be Mr. Fantastic?
Sheppard: Because he was the leader and I'm, I'm just saying that they were a cool team and we're a cool team, and they used their strengths to, you know... I'm going to go and check on McKay.
