Episode Quotes
 
Vila: It's not that I'm a coward, it's just that I have a very low pain threshold, hardly a threshold at all.
 
Dayna: And when we get out?
Avon: This is my ship.
 
(Avon and Dayna find a guard with a knife in his back)
Avon: It is a difficult way to commit suicide.
Dayna: Maybe he was cleaning it and it went off.
 
Avon: If anybody comes through that door, kill them...Anybody who isn't me, that is.
 
Cally: Not exactly jumping whenever you snap your fingers, are they?
Servalan: Not yet. But I've enjoyed authority too long to give it up easily. I'll be giving orders again, and they'll be obeyed. When that happens, I shall give a very special priority to you - and to your friend Avon.
Cally: Avon?
Servalan: We met. Briefly.
Cally: Then he's alive.
Servalan: The condition, I hope, is purely temporary.
 
Dayna: Avon, why do you keep everything to yourself? Why are you so secretive?
Avon: Perhaps I'm shy.
 
Klegg: She will die slowly and very noisily.
Dayna: Don't count on it.
 
Avon: (to Dayna) That one is Cally. I shall introduce her more formally when she wakes up. This one is Vila. I really should introduce him now, he's at his best when he's unconscious.
 
Cally: (to Vila) Given the choice, would you rather be a load of spare parts down there?
Avon: Or one spare part up here?
