Episode Quotes
 
Master Cho: This is where it began. This is where it will end!
Shang Tsung: For you!
 
Shang Tsung: Omegis... Omegis... come to me! Omegis... come to me!
 
Master Cho: You are Kung Lao?
Kung Lao: That is my name. Now is there something you need?
Master Cho: To join you.
Siro: In what?
Master Cho: Your battle with Outworld.
Siro: Ohh, um... so, you're a fighter then?
Master Cho: Yes.
Siro: Well, why didn't you say so before, are you good?!
Master Cho: Very good.
Siro: Let's sign him up, huh?!
Taja: Siro, don't encourage him. Come on now, time to go home.
 
Taja: Wait a minute. You trained Shang Tsung? No-no-no, get him outta here, Kung Lao. There's no way some guy who knows Shang is going to...
Master Cho: (silences Taja) She talks too much. Now, I'm here to train you.
 
Omegis: (to Shang Tsung) Your pain will remain but I have restored your body. I want you to look exactly like you did as I watch you die. (laughs)
 
Siro: (after Master Cho blows up a cupboard) Wow! Good trick!
Master Cho: Trick? It's not a trick!
Siro: Is that something you can teach me?
Taja: Oh, please. This guy comes shuffling in, puts on a little light show and you two are ready to become all powerful sorcerers!
Master Cho: Young lady...
Taja: Don't do that thing with my voice! I'll say what I want.
Master Cho: I would have it no other way.
Taja: Guys, you should really think about what you're doing here.
Siro: Don't mind her, she tends to have an attitude.
Master Cho: And a great pair of legs. It's been a long time.
 
Shang Tsung: Release me from this or...
Omegis: Or what?! Listen to you, frozen there yet still ranting and still threatening! So like you.
Shang Tsung: Is that why you came? To gloat?
Omegis: No. To enjoy!
Shang Tsung: You'll pay for this!
Omegis: I already have!
 
Shang Tsung: In Mortal Kombat, wah! I'd be invincible!
Master Cho: That shows how little you know. These powers can be used for your good, to protect you or for evil, to consume you.
 
Master Cho: That, you will never learn from me! Gain immortality from winning Mortal Kombat or not at all!
Shang Tsung: But why learn the powers of sorcery just to end up dying like any other man?
Master Cho: Because that path leads only to darkness and misery! Believe me, I know!
 
Shao Kahn: Go ahead. What do you see? What am I?
Shang Tsung: Ruthless. Full of hate.
Shao Kahn: Does it repulse you? Or is it all too familiar? I can train you to use it.
Shang Tsung: What more can I learn?
Shao Kahn: That which your master withholds from you.
 
Shao Kahn: Searching his soul is one thing... but taking his soul will allow you to live forever! Your soul is mine.
 
Omegis: There really is no turning back, is there?
Shang Tsung: Not anymore.
Omegis: The Outworld?
Shang Tsung: Yes... and my future.
Omegis: Our future! Shang!
Shang Tsung: You're now part of my past.
Omegis: No! Don't leave me! Nooo!
 
Shang Tsung: You want to die?
Omegis: I want to age and I want to die as all mortals do. The Master cursed me with immortality and now there is nothing I can do to stop it.
Shang Tsung: I understand.
Omegis: Do you have the power?
Shang Tsung: Release me from the Master and mortality will be yours.
 
Omegis: And now for our bargain to make me mortal.
Shang Tsung: I can't.
Omegis: What do you mean?
Shang Tsung: I don't have the power. Perhaps, with his help but now... I could kill you but I think I'll let you live just as you are.
Omegis: How dare you deceive me again?!
 
Taja: But I tell ya if that old creep shows up here again, I'll break his neck!
Siro: As if you could.
Taja: Yeah, he is pretty powerful.
