Kevin Sorbo: Captain Dylan Hunt

Quotes 

• Tyr Anasazi : Am I mistaken, sir, or did you just grant complete strangers unlimited access to this ship?

  Captain Dylan Hunt : Why yes, I did. That way we can monitor them closely and see what they do with it. There's something not quite trust worthy about them, don't you think?

  Tyr Anasazi : You occassion bouts of deviousness never fail to surprise me, Captain.

• Captain Dylan Hunt : Even in the days of the Commonwealth, Inaris was considered a backwater world. These people were unpredictable. After three centuries of struggle, I'm just not sure they can be trusted.

  Trance Gemini : So why don't you just let me go and I'll find out. What?

  Captain Dylan Hunt : Nothing, nothing. It's, er, it's just you as a spy.

  Trance Gemini : They'll never know what hit them.

• Captain Dylan Hunt : That was it? They just described it to you?

  Trance Gemini : A little bit, but, I think when they saw how much it upset me, they decided they had better not talk about it any more.

  Captain Dylan Hunt : That was very considerate of them.

  Trance Gemini : You're mad at them, aren't you? They should have been honest with you from the beginning.

  Captain Dylan Hunt : I can't make alliances until I know exactly who I'm dealing with, or at least until I know I can trust them.

  Trance Gemini : Aren't those the same thing?

  Captain Dylan Hunt : Usually, but there are those few rare exceptions. Glad you're back.

• Captain Dylan Hunt : Open the pod bay doors.

  Beka Valentine : I just want you to know that I have the greatest enthusiasm for this mission.

• Captain Dylan Hunt : I'm afraid there isn't much upside.

  Beka Valentine : Okay, who are you and what have you done with the real Dylan Hunt? Do you remember Mister Help Thy Neighbour, Captain Idealism? That guy would have jumped at this.

  Captain Dylan Hunt : Yes, well that guy didn't know the Magog were coming. See, now we have to temper our idealism with pragmatism. Prioritize.

  Seamus Harper : He kind of has a point there, Beka.

  Captain Dylan Hunt : Thank you, Mr. Harper.

  Beka Valentine : Okay, look, I-I see what you're saying, but those freighter pilots? I used to be one of them, hauling rocks from one end of the galaxy to another, just trying to make a living. They don't deserve to be shot at, and they certainly don't deserve to die.

  Seamus Harper : All right, Rommie, are you recording this? Because this is like Freaky Friday or something. It's like somebody reversed the polarity on your brain waves.

  Captain Dylan Hunt : All right, all right, we'll go, and we'll see what we can do.
