Episode Quotes
Teyla: Were you running a fever before we left?
Rodney: I don’t know. I’m always running something.

Sheppard: Stuff happens Woolsey. And by stuff I mean...
Woolsey: I know what you mean, thank you.

Sheppard: You know Woolsey wants to send a M.A.L.P. ahead of every transit?
Rodney: That's gonna get old fast.
Sheppard: That's what I said.

Ronon: I thought you didn’t believe?
Dr. Keller: Is that a prerequisite?

Rodney: Been trying to remember the name of my sister's kid.
Sheppard: …Betty.
Rodney: Betty? Pretty sure that's not it.
Sheppard: It's Madison. See, at least you remember what it wasn't.
Rodney: Well, it's an underrated skill.
Sheppard: I'm just saying you might not be as far gone as you think.
Rodney: I'm hiding it. Believe me, I've already forgotten more than most people will ever know. And I know that sounds… arrogant, is that right.
Sheppard: Yeah, that works.

Sheppard: Well actually we're gonna have a big feast first.
Rodney: Last supper, huh?
Sheppard: Well, suits your Messiah complex.
Rodney: True.

Rodney: Look, my brain is not some new deck off the back of your house.
Sheppard: I’m not the one doing the surgery.
Rodney: (to Keller) Yeah, and as my parting advice, you need to stop letting these guys talk you into doing stupid things!

Keller: I have enough anesthetic to put you out. You’re not going to feel a thing.
Rodney: Yeah, it’s probably a hammer.

(Ronon blasts the parasite)
Sheppard: You could have stepped on it.
Ronon: She told me to shoot it.
