Quotes 

• Dr. Blight : It's been over an hour. Looks like your *hero* has abandoned you.

  [yawns] 

  Wheeler : It was YOUR radioactivity that took away Cap's powers!

  [yawns] 

  Wheeler : This is the most boring New Year's Eve I've ever spent.

  MAL : *Boredom's* not making you yawn. It's carbon-dioxide.

  Wheeler : [springs up]  WHAT? You mean we're runnin' out of oxygen?

  MAL : Not "we", human. "You." *I* never use the stuff.

• Rigger : [Kwame's earthquake is felt]  Gee, this Time Pool can sure make waves. Don't ya think?

  Dr. Blight : That's not the Time Pool, that's...

  Hoggish Greedly : [they step into the light from the broken wall]  The PLANETEERS?

  Kwame : We knocked, but no one answered.

• Wheeler : [hammering the wall that caused the cave-in]  Captain Planet, we're trapped in here!

  Dr. Blight : Yes, *please* get us out, Captain Planet! I promise I'll be good from now on!... I'll tell any lie I can *think* of to get out of here.

• Wheeler : It's not fair! THIS is what I get for trying to save the world? I could've been havin' *fun* tonight! Sometimes I wish I'd never *gotten* this stupid ring.

  Dr. Blight : Do you really mean that? Because I can arrange it.

  Wheeler : Arrange what?

  Dr. Blight : I can send you back in time to the moment when you got that ring from Gaia. When was it, anyway?

  Wheeler : Uh - last January. The fifth.

  Dr. Blight : You heard that, MAL; start up the Time Pool. Wheeler's going back in time. To January fifth. And where were you that day?

  Wheeler : Brooklyn, New York, but I really don't wanna go back in time...

  Dr. Blight : [steps behind him]  Aren't you tired of being a Planeteer, of always recycling, car-pooling, conserving energy?

  Wheeler : [hesitantly]  It's what everybody *should* do...

  Dr. Blight : Forget "should". Isn't it time you did what *you* wanna do?

  Wheeler : Changing history... I dunno...

  Dr. Blight : There are billions of other people who can save Earth. You've got your *own* life to worry about.

  Wheeler : [shoves her backward]  I don't trust you, Blight.

  Dr. Blight : Then think about *this*: our only way out of this cave-in is to change history so it didn't happen!
