Episode Quotes
Sheppard: Wow, new table huh?
Teyla: Woolsey brought it with him. He said he wanted a little piece of home.
Sheppard: Twelve foot long mahogany conference table. Hmm.

Dr. Carson Beckett: You're absolutely sure about this. Remember the formula comes from Michael. So as far as we know it could…
Sheppard: Turn me into a bug? Been there, done that.
Dr. Carson Beckett: No, actually I was going to say it could kill you.
Sheppard: Just, give me the shot.
Dr. Carson Beckett: Okay.

Rodney: Carson, is it true that Lorne and some of the others are beginning to show symptoms?
Dr. Carson Beckett: Aye, I’m afraid so.
Rodney: Oh god.
Dr. Carson Beckett: Why? Have you noticed something yourself?
Rodney: Well, my palms are very sweaty and my mouth is very dry. I’m having heart palpitations.
Dr. Carson Beckett: Okay. So, nothing out of the ordinary then.

Sheppard: How's Ronon?
Woolsey: He has a bruised larynx. Apparently he won't be able to speak for several days.
Sheppard: I wonder if anyone will notice the difference.

Dr. Carson Beckett: I'm scheduled to leave this afternoon. That is, unless of course there's a major crisis in the next hour or so.
Sheppard: Wouldn't surprise me.
