Episode Quotes
Teyla: And you once stunned Dr. Gero at your own surprise birthday party.
Ronon: He spooked me.
Ronon: Uh-huh.

Ronon: All right. Just untie me and I’ll listen to what you have to say.
Tyre: Would that be before or after you beat me unconscious?
Ronon: I don’t know. You choose. Or I could just surprise you.

Sheppard: We need your help.
Rodney: Ronon Dex is in trouble.
Solen Sincha: Ronon Dex is always in trouble.
Rodney: Well, his life is in danger.
Solen Sincha: Again, what else is new?

Wraith: Ronon Dex. I looked forward to the day when you would finally serve me.
Ronon: Well, then, I’m going to feel real bad disappoint you.
Wraith: Oh, I’m sure you’ll try, but in the end you’ll come around.

Teyla: Mr. Woolsey, do you have children?
Woolsey: No, but I had a Yorkie for many years. (Teyla stares) It’s a small dog.
Teyla: Ah.
Woolsey: But my wife got him in the divorce. I loved that dog. I never really had the chance to say goodbye. So no, no children.

Wraith: How does it feel to have your life stolen, to be pushed so close to the darkness, only to be pulled back from the brink? From what I understand, it’s a magnificent sensation.
Ronon: To be honest… I’ve felt better.

Sheppard: Nothing.
Rodney: So we were wrong. It has been known to happen. Hey, I always said this was a long shot.
Major Lorne: Colonel, this is Lorne. We’ve got something.
Rodney: I knew it!

Wraith: Kneel.
Sheppard: You know what would be really creepy and unexpected, is if you knelt instead.

Rodney: Ronon? How do you feel.
Ronon: Like hitting someone.
McKay: Anyone in particular?
Ronon: You, if you don’t loosen these straps and get me something to eat.
Rodney: That is a good sign. It’s a good sign. He’s back! He’s back!
