Glynnis Talken: Sarah Kerrigan

Quotes 

• [Raynor has been sent to rendezvous with Kerrigan, a beautiful psychic] 

  Lt. Sarah Kerrigan : Captain Raynor, I've finished scouting out the area, and... you pig!

  Jim Raynor : What! I haven't even said anything to you yet.

  Lt. Sarah Kerrigan : Yeah, but you were thinking it.

  Jim Raynor : Oh, yeah! you're a telepath.

  [referring to the mission] 

  Jim Raynor : Look, Lets just get on with this, ok?

• Lt. Sarah Kerrigan : This is Kerrigan. We've neutralized the Protoss but there's a wave of Zerg advancing on this position. We need immidiate evac!

  Arcturus Mengsk : Belay that order. We're moving out.

  Jim Raynor : What! You're not just gonna leave them?

  Arcturus Mengsk : All ships prepare to move away from Tarsonis on my mark.

  Lt. Sarah Kerrigan : Uh, boys? How about that evac?

  Jim Raynor : Damn you, Arcturus! Don't do this!

  Arcturus Mengsk : I's done. Hellsman, signal the fleet and take us out of orbit. Now!

  Lt. Sarah Kerrigan : Commander? Jim? What the hell is going on up there?

• [as the Chrysalis opens up, revealing its inhabitant] 

  The Overmind : Arise, my daughter. Arise... Kerrigan.

  Infested Kerrigan : By your will, Father, I live to serve. Let all those who oppose the Overmind feel the wrath of the swarm.

  The Overmind : Well done, Cerebrate! What I have wrought this day shall be the undoing of my enemies. Let not a Terran survive!

  Jim Raynor : Mother of God... Kerrigan, what have they done to you!

• Jim Raynor : Sarah, is that really you?

  Infested Kerrigan : To an extent. I'm far more than I once was, Jim. You shouldn't have come here.

  Jim Raynor : But, the dreams. I dreamed you were still alive, that somehow, you were... calling to me...

  Infested Kerrigan : I was. While I was in the chrysalis, I instinctively reached out to you and Arcturus telephaticly. Apparantly, Arcturus sent Duke here to reclaim me. But that was then, Jim. I am one of the Zerg now, and I like what I am. You can't imagine how this feels.

  Jim Raynor : So? What? Are you goin' to kill me now, darlin'?

  Infested Kerrigan : It is certainly within my power, but you're not a threat to me, Jim. Be smart; leave here now and never seek to confront the Zerg again.

  Jim Raynor : Doesn't look like I have much choice.

• Jim Raynor : Why are you doing this, Kerrigan? Look, I know about your past, I mean I've heard the rumours. I know you were part of those experiments with the Zerg, that Mengsk came and saved you. But you don't owe him this. Hell... I've saved your butt plenty of times.

  Lt. Sarah Kerrigan : Jimmy, drop the knight in shining armour routine. It suts you sometimes, just not... not now. I don't need to be rescued. I know what I'm doing. The Protoss are comeing to destroy the entire planet, not just the Zerg. I know that because... well, I just know it. I am a ghost, remember? Once we dealt with the Protoss, we can do something about the Zerg. Arcturus'll come around. I know he will.

  Jim Raynor : I hope you're right, darling. Good huntin'!

• Jim Raynor : This is bullshit! Kerrigan, are you reading this?

  Lt. Sarah Kerrigan : I've heard. I'm going down there. Arcturus knows what he's doing, I can't back out on him now.

  Jim Raynor : Funny. I never though of you as anyone's martyr.

• Infested Kerrigan : [in shock and disarray]  An illusion? Are you afraid to face me, Templar?

  Tassadar : So long as you continue to be so predictable, O Queen, I need not face you at all. You are your own worst enemy.

• Edmund Duke : This is Duke. The emitters are secured and online.

  Lt. Sarah Kerrigan : Who authourized the use of Psi emitters?

  Arcturus Mengsk : I did, Lieutenant.

  Lt. Sarah Kerrigan : What? The Confederates on Antiga were bad enough but now you're going to use the Zerg against an entire planet? this is insane!

  Jim Raynor : She's right, man. Think this through.

  Arcturus Mengsk : I have thought it through, believe me. You all have your orders, carry them out.

• Tassadar : Unfortunate it is, to see that one who was once so honorable and full of life would succumb to the twisted wiles of the Overmind.

  Infested Kerrigan : Do not presume to judge me, Templar. You'll find my powers to be more than a match for yours. In fact, I sense that your vaunted power has diminished since last we met.

  Tassadar : Mayhap, O Queen. Or is it only that I need not flaunt my power in such an infantile test of will?

• Infested Kerrigan : You seem overconfident of your abilities, dark one. I am no helpless Cerebrate to be assailed under cover of darkness. I am the Queen of Blades, and my stare alone would reduce you to ashes. You and your ilk cease to amuse me. Prepare yourself for oblivion's embrace.

• Infested Kerrigan : Now, Protoss, you shall know my wrath. Now you will know the fury of the Queen of Blades!

• [Kerrigan is explaining her Ghost training] 

  Lt. Sarah Kerrigan : You all know that the Confederates run a program for psychically gifted humans, training them to be Ghosts. Those running the program found that the Zerg are attuned to the psychic emanations of Ghosts.

  Jim Raynor : So, the Zerg are here for you, darlin'? This keeps getting better and better...

• [Kerrigan fights Tassadar, but he vanished into thin air] 

  Infested Kerrigan : An illusion? Are you afraid to face me, Templar?

  Tassadar : So long as you continue to be so predictable, Oh, Queen, I need not face you at all. You are your own worst enemy.

• Lt. Sarah Kerrigan : Lt. Kerrigan reporting.

• Infested Kerrigan : Insufferable Protoss coward!

• Cerebrate Daggoth : The Protoss have devised some new attack. An attack powerful enough to nullify our reincarnation and bring pause to the Overmind itself!

  Infested Kerrigan : So, Tassadar's plan was merely a diversion. I should not have underestimated him so.

• Lt. Sarah Kerrigan : I'm having doubts about this, Arcturus. I just don't think anyone deserves to have the Zerg unleashed on them.

  Arcturus Mengsk : I know you have personal feelings about this, but you can't let your past cloud your judgement. Carry out your orders, Lieutenant.

• Zasz : Kerrigan, I sense something strange about this Templar. Perhaps you should reconsider your attack?

  Infested Kerrigan : For the last time, Zasz; You question my motives and authority at your own peril!

  Zasz : You dare threaten a Cerebrate? You will be the doom of us all!
