- Eldon: The technology on this ship is far more advanced than the Olesians.
- Dr. Rodney McKay: How ironic then to have been shot down by the cast of Braveheart.
- Ronon Dex: [after Sheppard, Teyla, Rodney, and Ronon are held captive, Ronon is trying to get out of his hand restraints] I think they're loosening.
- Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: Take it easy, Chewie - You're gonna cut your damn hands off!
- Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: Leave it to convicts to know the best way to tie people up.
- Ronon Dex: Well, eventually I will get free and when I do, he's gonna pay for this.
- Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: Now listen to me. When you get free, you get us free and we all get out of here. Let 'em find out we're gone after we're gone.
- Ronon Dex: You're expecting me to let them get away with this?
- Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: The operative words are "get away".
- Ronon Dex: After I kill them!
- Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: That type of thinking will get us killed.
- Ronon Dex: Well, if you had returned fire...
- Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: The weapons systems were damaged.
- Ronon Dex: If you say so.
- Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: I do say so, and right now I'm saying knock it off.
- Ronon Dex: Is that an order, Sheppard?
- Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: I am beat up, tied up, and couldn't order a pizza right now if I wanted to. But if you need it to be, yeah it's an order.
- Dr. Rodney McKay: I prefer lethal injection, although I do have a fondness for the electric chair. Call me romantic.
- Teyla Emmagan: Do you kill all your violent criminals on Earth?
- Dr. Rodney McKay: Certain countries, yes.
- Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: Do we need to get into this right now?
- Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: How much time do you need to rework the D.H.D.?
- Dr. Rodney McKay: Well, in a perfect world, two days.
- Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: Rodney!
- Dr. Rodney McKay: Right now - ten minutes, give or take.
- Male Wraith: [Sipping a glass of wine] I think this is my favorite vintage yet.
- Magistrate: I hope you find the food acceptable as well. My new chef is quite accomplished.
- Male Wraith: I certainly hope so. Your previous chef unfortunately proved to be far more appetizing than the meals he prepared.
- Torrell: I could kill you, but you strike me as the type of man who despite being weak outside harbors strength of character he doesn't even know he has.
- Dr. Rodney McKay: I'm sorry, is there a compliment in there?
- Teyla Emmagan: We will never be able to make it to the Jumper. They have our weapons.
- Ronon Dex: We don't need weapons.
- Dr. Rodney McKay: How about the fact that they seriously outnumber us?
- Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: At least we've got the element of surprise.
- Ronon Dex: I was beginning to think you were afraid to fight.
- Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: No, I'm just naturally lazy, but I will if I have to. And it's starting to look like we have to.
