[edit] Season 1
[edit] Pilot [1.01]
- [While driving.]
- Zoe Carter: Listen-- dog.
- Jack Carter: No, you listen, home girl--
- Zoe Carter: [pointing] No, dog!
- Jack Carter: How long've you been in the tow business?
- Henry Deacon: Oh, I don't do this for a living, I do this for fun! I just always liked fixing things. I was an engineer, back in the day.
- Jack Carter: As in trains?
- Henry Deacon: Space shuttles.
- Beverly Barlowe: Will your wife be joining you?
- Jack Carter: My wife? Oh, uhm. [holds up hand with ring] Not likely. We're separated.
- Beverly Barlowe: Was it the sex?
- Jack Carter: Excuse me?
- Beverly Barlowe: Well, it's a common problem in long term relationships. People get bored, they want to experiment sexually, and they don't know how to express their needs.
- Jack Carter: Well, not that sharing my sex life with a total stranger doesn't sound like loads of fun, uh, at the moment my needs are a nap and a shower.
- Jack Carter: Deputy, where is the sheriff?
- Jo Lupo: You wanna know where the sheriff is? He's out on police business. Which is where I should be, instead of baby-sitting Felon Spice here.
- Zoe Carter: Hey!
- Jo Lupo: Now, if you'll excuse me, I'll stop doing your job, and start doing mine.
- Jack Carter: What're you doing out of your cell?
- Zoe Carter: I'm getting take-out for me and Jo. Turns out we have a lot in common.
- Jack Carter: Like what?
- Zoe Carter: Like fighting an oppressive patriarchal society to express our feminine power.
[edit] Many Happy Returns [1.02]
- Allison Blake: I still don't get it. Susan committing suicide. I mean, I know it sounds callous, but I don't care how bad things are, once you have a kid, you don't get to just... check out.
- Jack Carter: Well, my daughter Zoe said pretty much the same thing when I told her I was being transferred to Eureka.
- Allison Blake: Taking your life and taking a job are hardly the same thing.
- Jack Carter: In this town? Not so sure.
- Jack Carter: It's not like we have a standard form to "undead" you.
- Jo Lupo: Ahem.
- Jack Carter: Tell me you're kidding.
- Jo Lupo: 924/B. In triplicate.
- Nathan Stark: There was an electrical problem with the computers, and then I saw something. A figure.
- Jack Carter: Are you saying someone was in your office?
- Nathan Stark: Not someone. Something. It wasn't entirely corporeal.
- Jack Carter: Corporeal?
- Nathan Stark: Physical. There and not there at the same time.
- Jack Carter: Are you saying you saw a ghost?
- Nathan Stark: Sheriff. Director of research of the most advanced scientific facility in the world doesn't see ghosts.
- Nathan Stark: So, you sleeping with her?
- Jack Carter: Excuse me?
- Nathan Stark: You said I'd gotten the wrong impression. I assumed you were talking about my wife. Not that I have any right to ask--
- Jack Carter: You're right, you don't.
- Nathan Stark: You're not. But you'd like to.
- Jack Carter: I'll let you know if I get anywhere. With the ghost, I mean.
- Jack Carter: Tell me Henry, you're a scientist, do you believe in ghosts?
- Henry Deacon: Well, I believe in energy. When somebody dies, that energy has to go somewhere. So, theoretically I suppose it's possible.
[edit] Before I Forget [1.03]
- Jack Carter: I went back to check on my own, personal files, and they've been classified. I mean, my files.
- Allison Blake: (grinning) It's not my fault that there are things about yourself that you're just not cleared to know.
- Jack Carter: Yeah, I'd hate to stumble across something that if I told me, I'd have to kill me.
- Zoe Carter: I was up all night reading Shakespeare!
- Jack Carter: Uh-huh. You're really into this school play, huh?
- Zoe Carter: Yeah, you know, um, I think drama club is really helping me find myself emotionally. I feel like I'm really starting to fit in.
- Jack Carter: How many classes do you get to skip for rehearsal?
- Zoe Carter: Last period every day, including geometry. Love drama.
- Jo Lupo: My mom used to make my costumes.
- Jack Carter: You used to do theatre?
- Jo Lupo: Believe it or not, Carter, I didn't have childhood dreams of becoming a commando.
- Jack Carter: So you went from being told to break a leg, to actually breaking them?
- Jack Carter: I figured it all out. I know what you're up to.
- Jason Anderson: In regards to...?
- Jack Carter: I know that you have a device that can...create a wormhole, or, uh, bend time, or make you invisible...or a wormholing, time-bending, invisibling device, that shields you from the mind.
- Nathan Stark: Yes, he said "invisibling".
[Jack struggles with Jason Anderson, though the others manage to pull him back.]
- Jack Carter: [points] There. That's the device that invades your mind.
- Jason Anderson: It also starts my car. [shows ordinary car-keys]
[edit] Alienated [1.04]
- [The group are watching a very loud movie.]
- Jo Lupo: (screaming) What's wrong with you people?! Turn it down!
- Spencer Martin: What? Why?
- Jo Lupo: Your neighbors are complaining about the noise.
- Spencer Martin: Which neighbors?
- Jo Lupo: The state of Idaho! Turn. It. Down.
- Spencer Martin: Wow. I mean, that is like...
- Douglas Fargo: Unbelievable. Yet...believable.
- Vincent: Definitely.
- Jim Taggart: Like being there.
- Jo Lupo: I've gotta go. Hey, you guys keep it down, okay?
- Jim Taggart: We'll walk you out. You know, in case of alien invasion. Stranger things have happened.
- Jo Lupo: Right.
- Allison Blake: So everyones okay?
- Jack Carter:Oh no... they're freaking bug nuts! (to soldier) Restraints now!
- Jack Carter: Okay, who gave Fargo a gun?
[edit] Invincible [1.05]
- Dr. Carlson: You’re not Sheriff Cobb.
- Jack Carter: Ah, no. Sheriff Cobb retired. I took his place. (awkward pause) There was a town meeting, and, uh, uh, everything. I gave a speech.
- Dr. Carlson: I don’t get out much.
- Jack Carter: Yeah, I’m gathering.
- Jack Carter: But since I’m here, what is your emergency, exactly?
- Dr. Carlson: I need to get to work.
- Jack Carter: You called 911 to bum a ride?
[edit] Dr. Nobel [1.06]
- Dr. Thatcher: If you want sex, reverse the hex.
- Nathan Stark: Sheriff, at any point when you picked him up, the car ride, the long walk down here, did you happen to notice this guy's not all there?
- Jack Carter: Yeah, there may have been signs.
[edit] Blink [1.07]
- Jack Carter: Put the gun down, Dylan.
- Dylan: Why? So I can go to jail for the rest of my life?
- Zoe Carter: Damn straight!
- Jack Carter: Not helping!
- Jack Carter: Okay, let’s say someone literally is speed-freaking. What signs would I look for?
- Henry Deacon: Besides running at 600 miles an hour?
[edit] Right as Raynes [1.08]
- Jack Carter: This is obstruction of justice.
- Zoe Carter: How do you figure?
- Jack Carter: You’re making me late for work.
- Joe Lupo:(After kissing Raynes) That was for coming back (after punching him) that's for leaving
- Zoe Carter: (about seeing Beverly) Actually, my Dad’s making me go here. Apparently I have issues with authority and listening and… I don’t know, other stuff. I wasn’t really paying attention, so…
- Allison Blake: Are you okay?
- Jo Lupo: Just my luck right? All the good ones are either gay, married, or robots.
[edit] Primal [1.09]
- Douglas Fargo: (while Stark is testing his invention) Why are you trying to access my file?
- Nathan Stark: To see if you’re remotely qualified to be tapping into my cerebral cortex.
[edit] Purple Haze [1.10]
- Zoe Carter: The school's gone completely out of control. Kids in fights, making out in the hallways, teachers apathetic.
- Jack Carter: So, more like normal school, then.
- Zoe Carter: Exactly.
- Jack Carter: [into phone] Hey, uh, Allison, it's Jack. Listen, um, people are acting a little weird and we...well, frankly you're acting a little weird. Um, but, we should really get together and sort this out before it gets any worse.
- Jo Lupo: [manhandling Seth into the station] Caught him trying to burn down Fargo's house.
- Jack Carter: (still into phone) Too late.
- Douglas Fargo: I'm sure you were great in the last town you worked in-
- Jack Carter: America, Fargo. I was a US Marshall, my last town was America.
- Stark: Wake me when it's over.
- Allison: Reminds me of the last time we slept together.
- Carter: Ooh!
- Stark: At least you can remember it.
- (Allison is trying to seduce Carter)
- Carter: I can't.
- Allison: (glances down, amused) Really? (looks down again)
- Carter: Oh, no, I mean, I can! I'm fully capable.
- Jo: You're no fun.
- Carter: You know what'd be fun?
- Jo: Ice skating!
- Carter: Never mind.
- Carter: Taggart.
- Taggart: Mm?
- Carter: You're naked.
- Carter: (armed with a flamethrower) Unless you want me to roast your chestnuts, back off!
- Taggart: (naked and armed with a shovel) You wouldn't dare.
- Carter: Try me.
- (Taggart drops his shovel and runs off screaming)
- Allison: All I know is that there is something inside section 5, something Nathan's obsessed with. Something that he thinks will change the world.
- Carter: Of course, it's incredibly dangerous.
- Allison: Have you ever known anything to change the world that wasn't incredibly dangerous?
- Carter: Velcro.
[edit] H.O.U.S.E. Rules [1.11]
- Jim Taggart: Smart mice. IQ's through the roof. Little varmints used vector formulas to keep me off their tracks.
- Jo Lupo: How'd you catch them?
- Jim Taggart: Smart cheese.
- Henry Deacon: I'm leaving Eureka, because I'm tired of watching noble ideas being turned into weapons, and here we are, here we are at the mercy of a weapon that had been turned into a noble idea.
- Douglas Fargo: SARAH's gone HAL on us!
- Henry Deacon: Fargo turns a relic of war into something beautiful and life affirming and then gets chastised, because it's actually trying to help us avert disaster.
- Nathan Stark: He got chastised, because it's holding us hostage!
- Nathan Stark: Fargo, please tell me you laid in a back door?
- Douglas Fargo: I'd really, really like to.
- Carter: Of all the geniuses in this town, why is it that the pizza guy gets out first?!
[edit] Once in a Lifetime [1.12]
- Zoe Carter: [during her graduation speech] Thank you for making me and my dad a part of your family. I promise to do my share of the chores, and I'll try not to blow up the world if you don't.
- Walter Perkins: Besides, part of my sentence is no technology above a class 2 rating. Hell , I had to file for special dispensation just to get that Xbox. It's only a 360.
[edit] Season 2
[edit] Phoenix Rising [2.01]
- Jack Carter: Taggart said the combustion was caused by meson particles coming from a solar flare. I'm no astrophysicist but I don't think there are a lot of solar flares inside a house.
- Henry Deacon: He's right.
- Jo Lupo: Really?
- Jack Carter: Could you not act so surprised?
- Henry Deacon: There's not much tissue left but I can run a DNA sample and get an ID.
- Jack Carter: Nah, I know who it is. It's fat, sweaty Asian guy.
- Vincent: What?!
- Allison Blake: Carter!
- Jack Carter: I'm being descriptive - if I knew his name, I'd use it!
- Jo Lupo: Maybe it was just a one time thing. You know. Adrenaline. Heat of the moment.
- Zoe Carter: Making out with Taggart? More like a moment of insanity.
- Jo Lupo: Not so loud. Look, I really need some outside perspective here. Please?
- Zoe Carter: You want perspective?
- Jo Lupo: Uh-huh.
- Zoe Carter: You hooked up with a guy whose age difference with you is the same as me and my dad.
- Jo Lupo: (Looks over at Taggart. Taggart waves. Jo waves back.)That did it.
[edit] Try, Try Again [2.02]
- [as Stark prepares to shoot Fargo with a goo gun]
- Douglas Fargo: Dr. Stark, are you smiling?
- Nathan Stark: No, of course not!
- Jack Carter: Do we have any suspects yet?
- Jo Lupo: No, unless you count this long list of people who find Fargo as annoying as we do.
- Douglas Fargo: Hey! That's not true... oh yes it is.
- Nathan Stark: Good job Carter. Wow that didn't even leave a bad taste in my mouth.
- Jack Carter: Give it a second.
- Nathan Stark: Oh there it is.
- Jack Carter: You've never swung an ax in your life.
- Nathan Stark: I've swung things you don't even know about.
- Jack Carter: What does that even mean?
[edit] Unpredictable [2.03]
- SARAH: Today’s forecast calls for heat, frost, rain, hail, gale force winds and severe lightning.
- Jack Carter: [re: S.A.R.A.H.] I’ll have Fargo give her a check-up.
- Allison Blake: [over the radio] How hard is it to push a button?
- Jack Carter: [fighting gale-force winds] You wanna do it?
[edit] Games People Play [2.04]
- Abby Carter: SARAH, forgive me if I don’t feel the need to justify my parental choices to a talking bunker.
- SARAH: Fine, don’t let the door hit you on the way…
- Abby Carter: [interrupting] Yeah, you wanna piece of me?
- Jack Carter: Ahem. Are you, uh, threatening the house?
- Abby Carter: She started it.
- Douglas Fargo: Sorry, all class 8 research is classified.
- Jack Carter: Oh. Y’know what else should be classified? Uh, a certain assistant’s American Idol audition.
- Douglas Fargo: What? No, no, Zoe promised me she was gonna delete that!
- Jack Carter: So what’s it gonna be?
- Douglas Fargo: Fine. Give me an hour.
[edit] Duck, Duck, Goose [2.05]
- Jack Carter: I mean, they’re only kids. How much trouble can they get into? I mean, uh, Jo made it seem like the sky is falling.
- Nathan Stark: That hasn’t happened since 2004. And that was more of an igniting of the ionosphere.
[edit] Noche de Sueños [2.06
- Jack Carter: Joesefina Ballerina.
- Jo Lupo: I will taser you.
- S.A.R.A.H:Sometimes I think she says these things just to hurt me.
- Jack Carter: No I say things just to hurt you.
- Nurse: (To Carter about Fargo) But that boy may die.
[edit] Family Reunion [2.07]
- Jack Carter: [about Fargo’s grandfather being in stasis] Hey, um, is anyone curious as to how he got in there?
- Nathan Stark: He’s a Fargo. Are you really surprised?
- Douglas Fargo: I am standing right here.
- Dr. Fargo: Say, did we ever get to the moon?
- Douglas Fargo: In ’62.
- Dr. Fargo: Way to go, guys!
- Douglas Fargo: Top secret of course. We didn’t go public until ’69.
- Nathan Stark: Of all people to bring out of cryostasis I resurrect another Fargo.
- Jack Carter: Yeah, karma's a bitch.
[edit] E=MC...? [2.08]
- Stark: This the new kid?
- Zane: Who you calling kid, Spartacus?
- Stark: Ooh, cocky, I like him.
- Carter: You would.
- Zane: (while being arrested) Excellent response time. You guys take Lake Street?
- FBI agent: Went up by Lincoln Park. Less traffic.
- Carter: (about the price of Zane) Whoa! Twenty-five thousand for this guy?
- Zane: (to Allison) For thirty, I'll throw in dinner and a movie. But it won't go past second base. I'm not that kind of boy.
- Zane: What's the project status?
- Allison: Ah, well, everyone at GD wants to get their hands on the data.
- Zane: Big Bang whores, every one of 'em.
- Zane Donovan: Obsession with firearms can be a sign of unfulfilled sexual appetite. I'm not saying that's you, but if it is, I'm at your service.
- [Jo points a large gun at Zane]
- Zane Donovan: Whoa, whoa, whoa!
- Jack Carter: Jo, Jo, Jo! Don't shoot the prisoner. Don't.
- Jo Lupo: How about I just wing him?
- Zane: (re the chicken) I'm not eating that.
- Carter: Why not? It's chicken.
- Zane: Do you know how chickens are raised?
- Carter: Aw, don't, just let me enjoy my meal.
- Zane: Jammed together in a windowless warehouse, wading in feces until (slices hand across throat) they get decapitated, or pecked to death. (cheerfully) When you eat that chicken, you're eating all that hate.
- (cut to Carter shoving Zane back in his jail cell)
- Zane: Aw, c'mon, I have to sleep in here?
- Carter: At least you're not wading in your own feces. GD has an apartment for you, but you're a criminal, and you don't deserve it.
- Zane: You may think I'm a criminal, but my mom loves me and she wouldn't appreciate you insulting her boy.
- Jo: Okay, what do you mean, they're stupid?
- Carter: I mean, stupid. Like, like (acts 'stupid') stupid.
- Jo: Carter, you can't catch stupid.
- Zane: This may be my favorite conversation of all time.
- ...
- Carter: How you feeling? You feel dumb?
- Jo: No. You?
- Zane: How could you tell? (Carter and Jo both nonchalantly zap him) OW! Gah!
- Zane: There's only one thing I want from you, Jojo. A sandwich.
- (Finding Zane after he's escaped)
- Carter: You vacationed here when you were ten. Figured it's off the main road, place to hide out for a couple days first.
- Zane: Well, I guess my FBI file's more detailed than I thought.
- Carter: Not in your file.
- Zane: Well, then that computer of yours must have an amazing predictive algorithm.
- Carter: Didn't use the computer. I called your mother.
- Zane: (starts laughing, then abruptly stops when he realizes Carter is serious) You called my mother?
- Zane: Please don't let me die in this crap town.
- Guy 1: Marco.
- Guy 2: Marco.
- Guy 1: Marco.
- Guy 2: Marco.
- Jack Carter: Polo! One of you says 'Polo'. It's Marco Polo! (he walks away)
- Guy 1: Polo.
- Guy 2: Polo.
- Guy 1: Polo.
- Guy 2: Polo.
[edit] Sight Unseen [2.09]
- Lucas: Clearly Jasper thinks you're hot, but not smart enough to be his partner. [Zoe looks offended] In my opinion he's an idiot. [pauses] No one usually asks my opinion.
- Science teacher: Does everyone have a partner?
- Zoe Carter: [Looks around frantically] Well, it looks like we're stuck together.
- Lucas: Welcome to my world. It's quiet, but it has its advantages.
- Zoe Carter: Like what?
- Lucas: Kidding, no advantages.
- Jo Lupo: What was taken?
- Pharmacist: Polyethylene glycol.
- Jack Carter: [sarcastically] Ah, let me guess: permanent sunblock, instant cavity filler?
- Pharmacist: [confused] No, we keep those up front.
- Henry Deacon: Besides, extracting AL26 from moon rocks would require a highly sophisticated process, you’d have to be especially trained…
- Jack Carter: You mean like everyone in town?
- Henry Deacon: Gotcha. I’ll check it out.
- Calli: It's a pleasure to do you... I mean, clean your clothes.
- Zoe: I'm Zoe.
- Lucas: I know, we have three classes together.
- Zoe: Really?
- Lucas: Story of my life.
- Zoe: I'm not hot.
- Lucas: Now you're just fishing for compliments.
- Lucas: Sorry about all the verbal sparring and sexual tension between us.
- Zoe: Please, you are so not my type.
- Lucas: That's what they all say.
- Zoe: Until they fall madly in love with you?
- Lucas: No, that's what they all actually say
- Fargo: What if he's in there waiting?
- Carter: Then he'll get you first.
- Fargo: Lincoln the poop guy.
- Lucas: You're not shallow, you just haven't explored your depth.
- Jo: Oh no, no, no there will be no exploring on my watch.
- Carter: Is it Frank?
- Fargo: Yeah.
- Carter: Is he dead?
- Fargo: Pretty much.
- Carter: walks into room eagerly
- Stark: Can we put a bell on him or something?
[edit] God is in the Details [2.10]
- Jack Carter: Bottom line: if Reverend Harper is responsible, we're in for a lot more.
- Henry Deacon: [sarcastically] Yeah, like a plague of locusts, or fiery hail, or total darkness.
[Suddenly, the lights go out.]
- Jack Carter: You had to say it!
- Larry Haberman: Maybe Global Dynamics was built over a Hellmouth.
- Zane Donovan: Wow. If all church girls look like you, I might consider converting.
- Jo Lupo: Well, you should join me sometime and find out.
- Zane Donovan: Oh, I would, but I'm allergic, I'd have to get a new inhaler, it'd be this whole thing.
- SARAH: I'm sorry, Sheriff, it was my responsibility to keep an eye on them, and I failed. Bad house!
- Zane Donovan: Either tell me why you're pissed at me, or I'll hold my breath until you do.
- Jo Lupo: What are you, three?
- Zane Donovan: Hey, I black out, it's on you.
- Jo Lupo: ...
[Zane starts holding his breath.]
- Jack Carter: Henry, you're my best friend, you know?
- Henry Deacon: Yeah, yeah, I know.
- Jo Lupo (points to Carter and Zane) Oh, you are both going to hell.
[edit] Maneater [2.11]
- Jack Carter: Yeah, it's been happening all day. Uh, Jo kissed me, but I didn't put it together.
- Nathan Stark: Deputy Lupo kissed you and you didn't think there was anything wrong with that?
- Jack Carter: Well, I've been working out. I'm looking pretty good.
- Jack Carter: Henry said that there's a… an inertia… thing coming.
- Zane Donovan: An inertial wave?
- Jack Carter: Yeah, is that bad? [diner explodes]
- Zane Donovan: Yeah, it's bad.
- Carter: Zane.
- Zane: I haven't done anything!
- Carter: Yeah, well, it's early yet.
- Carter: I'm sorry, do you need something?
- Allison: No, I'm good. I just love the way your lips move when you talk.
- Carter, Stark: Excuse me?
- Anne Young: Dr. Blake, that is a wildly inappropriate comment.
- Carter: Yeah.
- Stark: Not to mention, bizarre.
- Allison: Go ahead, say something else.
- Dr. Young: Or don't. (pushes Allison out of the way) Talk is cheap. (kisses Carter) I've been wanting to do that all day.
- Taggart: Wilma...ate...Fred.
- Jo: Um, did you need something?
- Zane: Yeah. I just wanted you to know, I didn't like that. Seeing you kiss Carter. I...didn't like it at all.
- Jo: No?
- Zane: I think I've been pretty clear about that. The question is, what would you like?
- Jo: To stop playing games.
- Zane: Meaning what?
- Jo: (turns and faces him) This. (kisses him)
- Zane: That, I liked.
- Jack Carter: Are you alright?
- Jo Lupo: Carter, listen...
- Jack Carter: It was an in-the-moment thing.
- Jo Lupo; Uh, yeah, are we still in the moment, 'cause I would really like to do it again.
- Jack Carter: We're going to have you lie down.
- Jo Lupo: Yeah, let's lie down.
- Jack Carter: Uh, Zane...?
[edit] All that Glitters (Part 1) [2.12]
- Vincent: [about the customers looting Café Diem] First the utensils turned to gold, then the counters, then the silverware. And that’s when they turned against me. Like vultures. Greedy little genius vultures. I thought intelligent men were above such things.
- Jack Carter: [spots Fargo trying to swipe a gold cappuccino machine] Fargo! Really?
- Douglas Fargo: It’s just so shiny.
- Jo Lupo: We just became the richest town in the world!
- Henry Deacon: Well, that's one way to look at it. Uh, gold is a soft metal, so it doesn't bear the same weight as steel, so our infrastructure could be collapsing. We'd be rich, but dangerously unstable.
- Jo Lupo: Like Paris Hilton?
- SARAH: Two people currently in the front closet.
- (Carter marches over to the closet and opens the door to reveal Jo and Zane making out)
- Carter: (shocked) What are you...You're supposed to be watching...
- Zane: Well, I was watching her and she was watching me, so... (they both exit the closet, Jo looking awkward and Zane looking fairly proud of himself)
[edit] A Night at Global Dynamics (Part 2) [2.13]
- Zane: I still can't believe you talked me into chaperoning.
- Jo: Hey, nobody snapped your fingers off.
- Zane: The ease with which you say that is almost as disturbing as it is hot.
- Jo: I know.
- Zoe: (to Lucas) Hey, Chia Pet, wanna dance?
- Lucas: Well, when you ask like that...
- Taggart: Small space.
- Carter: I hate small spaces.
- Taggart: Like returning to the womb.
- Stark: That's disturbing.
- Taggart: Oh, we're going to need a bigger womb.
- Douglas Fargo: That's a motion-activated photon defense array. They're screwed.
- Carter, Stark & Taggart: [over radio] We can hear you!
- Douglas Fargo: Sorry.
- Nathan Stark: We’ll have to climb down.
- Jack Carter: Yeah, you’d better let me go first.
- Nathan Stark: Why?
- Jack Carter: Heights make me nauseous.
- Nathan Stark: After you.
- Jim Taggart: He's fallen for one of the classic blunders! Never go in against an Australian when death is on the line!
[edit] Season 3
[edit] Bad to the Drone [3.01]
- Vincent: If you're gonna work here you need to be able to navigate the walk-in fridge.
- Zoe Carter: Navigate? (Vincent opens the cooler door) Whoa! It's like, Narnia.
- Vincent: Ponchos are on the left. Take the shuttle if you need food from the back.
- Eva Thorne: You and your team went behind my back and undercut my direct order.
- Nathan Stark: Some of us went right in front of your back.
- Jack Carter: Pompous jackass... How can anyone be attracted to Stark?
- Jo Lupo: Besides the ruggedly handsome, successful powerful thing, I...
- Jack Carter: Thanks, Jo.
- Jack Carter: No one's blaming you.
- Zane Donovan: I'm blaming you.
[...]
- Ethan Edison: I finally win and everyone's mad at me.
- Jack Carter: No one's mad at you.
- Zane Donovan: I'm mad at you.
- Jo Lupo: We rule!
[Martha blows a hole in the wall of the cell and escapes.]
- Jack Carter: We so don't rule.
- Douglas Fargo: Oops. Sorry, I must have pressed the wrong button, I do that sometimes.
- Jack Carter: Well, if you have any words of wisdom, like "Don't start World War 3", now would be the time.
[...]
- Jack Carter: (After Zoe's speech to Martha) And don't start World War 3.
- Zoe Carter: Right, and that.
- Jack Carter: (To Martha) Remember me, piggy backs? Good times.
- Jack Carter: Everybody down, flying invisible drone on the lose!
[Everyone at Cafe Diem stares at him]
- Jack Carter: Now a man is in the hospital. Well, Larry's in the hospital.
- Eva Thorne: The same Zane Donovan who crashed the New York Stock Exchange?
- Zane Donovan: Allegedly.
- Allison Blake: Look, can the two of you get along for two minutes?
- Carter, Stark: Not likely.
- Nathan Stark: Carter almost articulated a good point.
- Eva Thorne: Where the lunatics are running the asylum?
- Jack Carter: I used to think the same thing. But, uh, they're not lunatics. They're, they're not all luna—there's a fine line between genius and crazy...
- SARAH: Your father does the best he can.
- Zoe Carter: What kind of crappy platitude is that?
- SARAH: The usual kind. I guess.
[edit] What About Bob? [3.02]
- Nathan Stark: As much as I hate to admit it, Sheriff Carter had an idea.
- Derek: Okay, lab 27 is a sealed biosphere. A self-sustaining biosphere designed to support the Mars missions.
- Jack Carter: You do mean the potential Mars missions?
- Derek: Right! [laughs, then gets a small headshake from Allison] I mean, right.
- Vincent: What did I miss?
- Zoe Carter: My dad hunting for the Creature from the Black Lagoon.
- Nathan Stark:Yeah the words Zane and discipline tend to not go in the same sentence.
- Allison Blake: (Being sterlized to enter biosphere) Not the way I'd ever pictured us winding up naked.
- Jack Carter: You pictured us winding up naked?
- Allison Blake: No.
- Zane Donovan: Jo! I need a gun. A big, powerful gun.
- Jo Lupo: (happily) I've been waiting for someone to say that to me my whole life.
- Zane Donovan: Carter, Henry, and Stark. That's your money team. They know exactly what they're doing.
- (cut to Carter, Henry, and Stark)
- Nathan Stark: You're sure you know what you're doing?
- Jack Carter: I have no idea.
[edit] Best in Faux [3.03]
- Allison Blake: A pocket of magma developed spontaneously? That's impossible.
- Dr. Hood: Did "impossible" cover my friend with mucus?
- Jack Carter: He's got a point.
- SARAH: Stress is America's number one health problem.
- Jack Carter: Aw, drop the act.
- SARAH: Followed closely by sarcasm.
[edit] I Do Over [3.04]
- Zoe Carter: Dad, you're walking the woman you possibly love down the aisle to marry another guy.
- Jack Carter: Okay first, not true. And second, since when do we talk about this stuff?
- Zoe Carter: Since I'm seventeen and you're in denial.
- Zoe Carter: I love your hair… and your cats.
- Lexi Carter: Oh, a Tibetan monk told me that tabby is a reincarnation of Grandma Lil.
- Henry Deacon: [starting wedding ceremony] Love is timeless, transcending everything we know, everything we understand, and giving us strength and comfort forever. What is past is now present, and what is present will become your future. That is what love is, never ending.
[edit] Show Me the Mummy [3.05]
- Jack Carter: Just be careful. It's all fun and games until someone gets cursed.
- Dr. Wilding: The bugs lay eggs, hatch larvae and then seek out new hosts.
- Henry Deacon: Us.
- Eva Thorne: Well, how did the ancient Egyptians deal with that problem?
- Zane Donovan: They killed the infected and burned the city to the ground.
- Jack Carter: Let's call that Plan B.
- Jack Carter: (being attacked by a swarm of parasitic insects) Why couldn't it have been butterflies?!
[edit] Phased and Confused [3.06 ]
- Allison Blake: We don't have a 'Quantum Phasing Department,' Carter.
- Jack Carter: Well he didn't buy his walk-through-walls machine at 'Walk-Through Walmart.' Someone in this building's working on something like that.
- Jack Carter: Well let me know what you find, I have to go catch a nine-fingered superhero.
- Henry Deacon: [nodding] Sure.
- Lexi Carter: I don't know if I'm ready for this. Seriously, I don't know if I'm ready to be a mom.
- Jack Carter: You'll be fine!
- Lexi Carter: It gets easier?
- Jack Carter: [shakes his head] Noooo....Not in the least, no. But you adapt. And look, you were right! She can take care of herself.
Douglas Fargo: (After being unfrozen and looking at a Hologram of Nathan Stark) I`m in heaven
[edit] Here Come The Suns [3.07]
- Zane Donovan: Dude, it's like two zillion degrees out there! (smiling) Okay, I'm game!
- Jack Carter: Do anything normal for fun?
- Zane Donovan: Yeah, I play a wicked game of Yahtzee
- Zane Donovan: (preparing to launch the rocket) Carter? Yeah, whatever happens... It's been fun.
- Jack Carter: No, it hasn't. Push the button!
- Zane: Having fun yet?
- Carter: Oh, yeah. 'Cause driving headlong into a fiery death is everyone's idea of a good time.
- Jo: (coming in) Sometimes I think it's his. Carter, could we have a minute?
- Carter: Oh, yeah, yeah, sure. (leaves)
- Zane: Jo, you're supposed to be miles away at an evac camp by now. (Jo kisses him) Wow. I should risk my life more often.
- Jo: I prefer you didn't.
- Zane: C'mon, Josefina, don't go all serious on me now.
- Jo: Too late. (she hugs him)
[edit] From Fear to Eternity [3.08]
- Jack Carter: [referencing Jo and Zane stuck together with Instantanium] How do we get them out?
- Dr. Hendricks: You get a saw.
- Jack Carter: Great! So you can just cut through it?
- Dr. Hendricks: No. You, uh, cut through the legs.
- Jack Carter: Ah! [then it hits him] Yes.
- S.A.R.A.H.: I have an array of exotic flavors for you to choose from. I chose them specifically based on the regions you've traveled.
- Lexi Carter: The fact that a house can actually try to suck up to me is almost as disturbing as a house taking my niece hostage.
- Allison Blake: How much longer Fargo?
- Douglas Fargo: The bunker's computers are 70 years old...it's like teaching Lincoln how to use an iPhone!
- Zane Donovan: I thought maybe we could, you know, have a bite?
- Jo Lupo: A bite? What, we wouldn't want to have you commit to a whole meal.
- Jo Lupo: (holding a canister) Hey, could you come here for a second?
- Zane Donovan: Why? So you can hit me with that?
- Jo Lupo: Not until you tell me what it is first.
- Zane Donovan: (to Jo) Don't you look at me in that tone of voice.
- ...
- Jo Lupo: (answering Zane' s phone) Dr. Bonehead's lab.
- Jack Carter: (on phone) Let me guess, you two are still stuck together.
- Jo Lupo: Just until I can reach my gun.
- Carter: (to Jo and Zane, who are stuck together) Hey, guys, pick out a china pattern yet?
- Jo Lupo: God, what if I have to go to the bathroom?
- Zane Donovan: Why do you think I'm working so fast? I had four cups of coffee this morning.
- Jack Carter: Don't touch the pretty metal canisters.
- Jo Lupo: Another five minutes and I would have chewed off my own leg!
- Zane Donovan: Your mouth is probably big enough.
- Jo Lupo: Good afternoon! My name is Jo Lupo and I'll be saving your ass today!
- Jo Lupo: Hey, um, after that call, do you um, maybe wanna go for a, a break-up dinner?
- Zane Donovan: No. (long pause) How about a make-up dinner instead?
- (they kiss)
- Jo Lupo: Guess it's not so bad being stuck together.
[edit] Welcome Back Carter [3.09]
- (Sheriff Andy has just been fried by a tensor field)
- Sheriff Andy: (moaning) Ouch! I don't think I like this job.
- Dr. Leonardo: So where are your uniforms?
- Carter: Er it's an unofficial visit.
- Dr. Leonardo: So is true that you guys got fired?
- Jo: He got fired, I quit.
- Dr. Leonardo: Bummer.
[edit] Your Face or Mine [3.10]
- Allison: Hey, are you sure that Larry did this?
- Jo: Well, he had motive, knowledge and, uh, opportunity. It's a trifecta.
- Henry: But what exactly was his motive?
- Jo: Well, isn't it obvious? To steal.
- Henry: Yeah, but why?
- Jo: Criminal mind's an enigma.
- Allison: For the next 48 hours, they will try to push you to your limit. Physically, psychologically and emotionally.
- Fargo: Uh, but don't worry. We haven't had a death or psychotic break in, like, forever.
- Carter: That's reassuring.
- (Jo sneaks up behind Zane, covers his eyes, and kisses him)
- Zane: Careful. My girlfriend might see you. (Moves Jo's hands) Oh, uh, hey, Jo. Awkward.
- Jo: I will show you awkward. (kisses him again)
- (pan to Fargo, who is watching the exchange)
- Zoe: You okay, Fargo?
- Fargo: Yeah! Just, uh, thinking...
- Zoe: About making out with Jo?
- Jo: Okay, has everyone gone nuts?
- Zane: (entering sheriff's office) That's what I'd like to know.
- Jo: (distracted) Hi.
- Zane: 'Hi?' That's all you have to say?
- Jo: Uh, what do you expect me to say?
- Zane: 'Sorry for getting wasted and making out with Fargo'?
- Larry: Oooh, you made out with Fargo?
- Jo: No!
- Zane: Aaah, kinda, yeah.
- Zane: Jo?
- Fargo: Uh-oh.
- Zane: Fargo!
- Fargo: You wanna dance? Let's dance! But just so you know, in high school, I took a semester of shoto-con!
- Zane: (sighs) Fargo. I don't want to fight you. I'm worried about Jo.
- Fargo: Oh.
- Zane: One second, she's acting normal, and then the next, she's making out with you.
- Fargo: Yeah, well maybe she's finally come to her senses?
- Zane: You just talked to her, didn't she seem different to you?
- Fargo: Uh, well, she...kinda just asked me out.
- Zane: And that didn't strike you as odd?
- (Julia has switched places with Jo, so Jo--in Julia's body--is locked up because no one believes she's actually Jo)
- Jo: Zane! Thank god you're here.
- Zane: Julia, right? Allison told me what you did to Jo.
- Jo: No. She's Julia Golden. And I'm Jo.
- Zane: Ah, psych ward. I'm Henry.
- Jo: I can prove it. Ask me something personal that only Jo could know.
- Zane: (slightly uncomfortable) Ah, pet peeves.
- Jo: Small guns, big egos...and overly-critical boyfriends.
- Zane: Um, boxers or briefs?
- Jo: Me or you?
- Zane: Funny. Me.
- Jo: Boxers. Except on laundry day, which...by my count, would be tomorrow.
- Zane: (still unconvinced) First date?
- Jo: Sunday brunch at Cafe Diem. (Zane moves closer) I was nervous. You brought a rose, I wore a sundress. You said something smart that made me feel dumb...But you made up for it on our second date.
- (Zane moves as if to leave, then types a code into the door and enters the cell)
- Zane: So...Does that mean I sounded dumb, or I made you feel smart?
- Jo: A little bit of both.
- Zane: And how'd the date end?
- Jo: Let me give you a reminder. (kisses him)
- Zane: That's my Josefina.
- Jo: (hits him) Now get me out of here before I taser you for kissing another woman.
- Zane: Yep, definitely Jo.
- (Jo has just been zapped back into her own skin)
- Jo: Hey.
- Zane: You had me worried there.
- Jo: How do I look?
- Zane: Perfect.
- (Note: is in reference to a fight they had earlier in the episode, in which Zane stated no one was perfect)
[edit] Insane in the P-Brane [3.11]
- Tess: If we can feel each other, how can we be dead? And, and why aren't there any other dead people around here besides us? Huh?
- Carter: How do you know there aren't?
- Tess: Hey! Calling all dead people! Club meeting in the rotunda! See?
[edit] It's Not Easy Being Green [3.12]
- Carter: (about the blob) I should be able to handle a mindless eating machine.
- Allison: (glaring) You looked at me again.
- Carter: Oh, no. The- No, no, I was the... you're pretty.
- Tess: Ooh, nice save.
[edit] If You Build It... [3.13]
- (The car drives itself into Carter's parking space at the sheriff station.)
- Zoe: See? We're here, and I didn't even have to do anything.
- Carter: Yeah, another victory for total laziness.
- Zoe: Isn't it awesome? I can sleep all the way to school.
- Carter: Yeah, that's what the world needs, is more people asleep at the wheel.
- Jo: (about her new car) Totally high-performance, but completely under my control.
- Carter: Kinda like Zane.
- Carter: What's Ranger Tom calling six times about? Somebody steal a tree?
- Jo: I wrote it down.
- Carter: (holds up note) 'Something weird.'
- Tess: (eating pizza) Stakeouts are fun.
- Carter: They're, they're more fun with, um, pepperoni, than with, uh, organic tofu medley.
- Tess: You mean, thank you for the pizza?
- Carter: That is a thank you for the pizza.
- Tess: Yeah, you're welcome. Mm, you want anything else? I've got a protein bar, juice box... (gasps) Funyons!
- Carter: (laughing) You always eat this much?
- Tess: You always this smooth with the ladies?
- Carter: ...Yeah.
- Larry: I'm going to die a virgin!
- (Tabitha, with Fargo and Larry hostage in the trunk, has come to a stop)
- Fargo: I think this is it.
- Larry: Oh, god. Hold me! (hugs Fargo, sobbing)
- (Jo opens the trunk to see Larry and Fargo hugging and crying)
- Jo: Um, hello, boys.
- Larry: He hugged me!
- Fargo: You wish!
- . . .
- Larry: Listen, about that hug--
- Fargo: What happens in the trunk, stays in the trunk.
[edit] Ship Happens [3.14]
- Jo: If Lieber says that that booster converter isn't his, I say we let Fargo and him settle it in a cage match.
- Carter: I put five bucks on Fargo.
- Jo: Nice.
- Carter: He's scrappy.
- Allison: Tess, is your bio-lab up and running?
- Tess: Oh, yeah, but I was expecting a little more E.T., and a little less Henry's ex-girlfriend.
- Zane: I'm all checked out.
- Jo: I was really worried about you.
- Zane: Me too.
- Jo: How are you feeling?
- Zane: You tell me. (they kiss) Any sparks?
- Jo: No. (they laugh) Just the good kind.
- Tess: Oldest story in the world. Boy meets girl, boy looses girl, boy meets computer.
- Carter: Well, everyone needs a hand to hold.
- Tess: This is a really weird town. But I like it. Kinda.
[edit] Shower the People [3.15]
- Fargo: Henry is staying with Kim. I'll be doing the autopsy.
- Carter: You?
- Fargo: Yeah. Henry says I've assisted him enough to fly solo.
- Jo: I wouldn't fly in a plane with you.
[edit] You Don't Know Jack [3.16]
- Fargo: Tess, can I get another story thing? I think mine overloaded.
- Carter: Oh, ya think? You've been the center of every disaster this town's ever had.
- Fargo: Not all of them.
- Jo: Uh, death ray, homicidal smart house… ooh, uh, force field bubble.
- Carter: Yeah, keep a tally, we can start a pool.
- Fargo: That's not funny.
[edit] Have an Ice Day [3.17]
- Jo: Somebody looks tense, what's the matter?
- Carter: Well, Captain Yuri has me going through Eureka's entire library of disaster plans. I mean, tsunami, uh, missile attack, um… genetically modified, super-intelligent ferret infestation.
- Jo: It's cool.
- Carter: Yeah. And, um, apparently, we have, uh, an emergency pneumatic vacuum tube communication system.
- Jo: (nods) Mmm.
- Carter: No we don't! I mean, wh-wh-wh- what? Is it behind some picture in some wall? (she stands up and walks across the room) And, I mean, look at these plans–
- (She swings back the picture of George W. Bush on its hinge revealing the pneumatic device.)
- Jo: (fluffing Zane's pillows angrily) Why is it that every guy I date ends up in this infirmary?
- Zane: 'Cause you're bad luck, obviously.
- Jo: A joke. At my expense. Glad to have you back. (moves to the other side of the bed and continues to attack the pillows)
- ...
- Zane: Suspected me? Of what?
- Jo: Well, when Taggart got frozen...and he and I...used...to...like, you know...
- Zane: Really. Huh, you thought I loved you that much.
- (Jo smacks his chest)
- ...
- Zane: (getting out of the infirmary bed, looks down) You seen my pants?
- (Taggart is giving Tess a thumbs up)
- Zane: What's that?
- Taggart: It's her first day, trying to keep her in a positive frame of mind. (Tess thumbs-up back)
- Zane: Oh. That's nice of you. Is it working?
- Taggart: Yeah, I think so.
- Tess: (on other side of glass, cheerfully) We are so screwed.
- Tess: Good news? Good news? The building is about to fall down! I broke a building!
- (Taggart and Carter are on a dogsled)
- Taggart: Just like old times, eh, mate?
- Carter: I hate old times!
- Zoe: We'll freeze to death before anyone gets here.
- Lucas: Death? Death!
- Zoe: It's okay...
- Lucas: I can't do this! (hyperventilating)
- Zoe: Frozen girl! Hugs!
[edit] What Goes Around Comes Around [3.18]
- Julia Golden: (to Carter) Nemesis is a neutron star that's been theorized to be in binary orbit with our sun.
- Fargo: It crosses earth's orbit every 65 million years, causing an extinction-level event.
- Jo: Like a killer asteroid?
- Fargo: That's not even the half of it. The tidal stresses from the star's gravitational pull could cause a sudden reversal of Earth's magnetic poles and unleash earthquakes, tsunamis, total global chaos!
- Julia Golden: The world could literally be turned upside-down.
- Carter: All right, um, I'll check with Henry. How much time do we have?
- Julia Golden: If we're lucky? Maybe 2,000 years.
- Carter: (disbelieving) Two … thou– Mmm. See, that's not so much a problem. So next time, don't bury the lead.
- Henry: That surge in electromagnetism fed back into the strength of the amplifier, creating a loop of building energy, and voila, a new North Pole.
- Lucas: I swear I had no idea.
- Carter: (bending down very close to him) Well, you are gonna have to tell Santa that he needs to move his workshop!
[Carter has walked in on Fargo and Julia in a compromising position]
- Carter: Fargo, come! With me!
[edit] Season 4
[edit] Founders Day [4.01]
- (Watching Jo fight multiple soldiers.)
- Allison: This is bad!
- Carter: Yeah, for them! She's small, but scrappy.
- Carter: You're here.
- Henry: Yeah.
- Carter: Working.
- Henry: Hiding in plain sight. I mean Eureka was always progressive, but nobody looks twice at a black mechanic. But still, oh man, amazing isn't it? (laughs, looks around past Eureka in awe)
- Carter: You do realize that you, me, Allison and Jo are all stuck here, right?
- Henry: And Fargo. They caught him streaking through the camp.
- Carter: Of course they did.
[edit] A New World [4.02]
- Allison: Dr. Grant, we know what it feels like to get pulled away from our own time.
- Dr. Grant: Thank you, it's ok, But I thought there would be more flying cars.
- Carter: Another day, another runaway robot.
- Kevin: So get this, Mom was late this morning, and I didn't get to make it to Dre's, and I mean she's always on me about being late! Maybe now she'll realize that time is a relativistic construct and ease up!
- Tess: (laughing) Yeah, I wouldn't count on it.
- Jo: You ok there, Tex?
- Carter: Oh yeah, but don't believe them when they say lighting doesn't strike twice in the same place.
[edit] All the Rage [4.03]
- Carter: We gotta move fast, can you flip the switch and make happy on, anger off?
- Allison: We're dealing with all the symptoms of rage.
- Carter: So we're dealing with a bunch of mad scientists?
- Carter: So are we looking for Hulk juice or what?
- Carter: Attention! Unruly...zombies.
[Jo restrains Zane, both are sick with rage]
- Zane: Bite me Lupo!
- Jo: Don't tempt me.
[edit] The Story of O2 [4.04]
- Deputy Andy: (looks at his arm, which has caught fire) Hmm, I seem to be conflagrating. Oh dear.
[edit] Crossing Over [4.05]
- Claudia: This is Eureka, I was kind of hoping to see something insanely weird.
- Carter: Consider yourself lucky.
- Fargo: (wanting to impress Claudia) One day of getting to look like I know what I am doing, is that too much to ask for?
- Carter: Evidently.
- Claudia: You can trust me, I was a Campfire Girl.
- Fargo: Please tell me you kept the uniform (at Claudia's look) For posterity.
- Carter: (to Fargo, who's lying on top of a mine) I need to put this on the mine where your head is.
- Fargo: But my head is where my head is.
- Carter: This will help keep it there.
[edit] Momstrosity [4.06]
- Carter: You were bragging about going on a date with his mom! If you bragged about a date with my mom I'd run off in the woods too!
- Grant: I will be sure never to tell you about it.
- Carter: Nothing like being chased by a giant killer robot to make you want your mom.
[edit] Stoned [4.07]
- Allison: How're we doing?
- Zoe: Well we're not garden statuary anymore.
[edit] The Ex-Files [4.08]
- (After Henry's shop nearly shakes apart.)
- Henry: That was a little too close to home.
- Carter: Yeah. "What's the frequency, Kenneth?"
- (Carter finds Nathan Stark in his office.)
- Carter: Am I crazy?
- Stark: You're not crazy. Go ahead, pinch me.
- Carter: I don't want to pinch you.
- Stark: You know you want to.
- Carter: No, I really don't!
- (Stark slaps Carter.)
- Carter: OW!
- Stark: Told you I'm real.
- Carter: I'm tried of having to hear about the shoes I have to fill.
- Stark: (proudly) Size 13! (quietly) Just saying.
- (Carter is staring at a destroyed bridge.)
- Carter: I just don't get it.
- (Behind him, Stark is suntanning.)
- Stark: It's science, Carter. No one expects you to get it.
- (Carter turns.)
- Carter: Well, if it's... (sees Stark) Put a shirt on!
- Stark: Hey, this is your fantasy, not mine.
- Carter: Nightmare!
- Stark: (to Carter) Why are you always running away?
- Allison: (to Trevor) What about you? You were at that barbecue. You haven't said anything about who you're seeing.
- Adam Barlowe: The guy whose life she saved 63 years ago.
- Trevor: Tall, lanky blonde. Slinky red dress. (describing Number Six from Battlestar Galactica.)
[edit] I'll Be Seeing You [4.09]
- Fargo: Hello, cop types? Bad guys are not going to find themselves!
- Carter: Is he getting bossier?
- Jo: I kind of like it.
- Henry: You know what they say, "Absolute power corrupts...."
- Grant: Absolutely.
- Deputy Andy: (Releasing Zane from the jail cell) Sorry for the inconvinence, Mr. Donovan.
- Zane: Well, you can relax 'cause I'm not gonna sue you.
- Jo: Glad to see the experience hasn't hardened you. Thanks for your help.
- Zane You're not getting off that easy, Lupo. I'm not stupid. I know something happened with the five of you, and part of it had to do with us.
- Jo: Zane, let it go. Grant's been cleared and so have you.
- Zane: I'm not talking about Grant. You had my grandmother's engagement ring. (quietly) C'mon, tell me what we were to each other.
- Jo: Nothing. I gotta go. (turns to leave)
- (Zane grabs Jo and kisses her.)
- Zane: Why did that not feel like a first kiss?
[edit] Oh Little Town [4.10]
- Carter: Ho, ho, holy crap!
[edit] Liftoff [4.11]
[edit] Reprise [4.12]
- Allison: All right, uh, so everything you need is in this bag, and I had Deputy Andy upgraded with the latest childcare techniques so if you need any extra help…
- Jack: Please, I survived a teenage daughter. And, apart from running away a few dozen times and brief stint in jail, she turned out okay.
- Allison: Hey, it's still not too late to come with me. You can change your mind.
- Kevin: Because going to a medical conference with your mom is just every teenager's dream.
- Jack: This is the sarcasm phase. It's, uh, right after the ignoring phase, and just before the loathing phase.
- Zane: (seeing Jo's new house for the first time) Didn't know you were building a TARDIS house.
- Jo: A what?
- Zane: Big on the inside, tiny on the… never mind.
[edit] Glimpse [4.13]
- Fargo: Listen, if you want to compare notes, I'd still like to take you to dinner.
- Holly: I don't think so.
- Fargo: Right. Understandable.
- Holly: I meant, that I don't want to work, but something more off-the-clock might be nice.
- Fargo: Well, okay… but in the spirit of new beginnings and full disclosure, I have to confess. I saw a prediction… of you kissing me. No pressure.
- Holly: Me kissing you?
- Fargo: Go figure.
- Holly: Douglas, the lenses show potential security risks. Now it's awkward. I should go. I'm sorry, Douglas.
- (She walks out of Fargo's office.)
- Fargo: Douglas Fargo, too dangerous to love.
- Zane: The P.A.L.s scan and analyze potential security and safety risks. Then they play the outcomes in live action, giving you a variable time frame for them to become reality.
- Fargo: Yeah, it's like having your own Professor Xavier.
- Carter: Who's Professor Xavier?
- Zane: Okay, I'm gonna pretend you didn't just say that.
- Dr. Gregor: I have developed a sleep chamber which balances levels of melatonin, and as—
- Fargo: Thank you, next.
- Dr. Gregor: What? Why?
- Fargo: Oh, I don't know, Dr. Gregor. Maybe because your chamber has the strong possibility of putting its user in a level one GCS coma. We're going to Titan, not Neverland.
[edit] Up In The Air [4.14]
- Carter: (practically skipping down the street) No blob, no wormhole, just a good old-fashioned bank robbery.
- Andy: You seem downright perky, boss.
- Carter: Yeah! We're gonna— we're gonna do fingerprints. We're gonna do a tire impression. We're gonna interview…
- (They pass a store and next find a lot with just a foundation on it.)
- Carter: …witnesses. Andy?
- Andy: Yeah, Boss?
- Carter: You said there was a… bank robbery.
- Andy: Yep, someone stole it last night.
- Carter: Of course they did…
- Grace: This is Eureka. We solve the impossible every day.
- Deputy Andy: (directing evacuees into GD) This way, ladies and gentlemen.
- Jo: You heard Mr. Data. No pushing, stay calm.
[edit] Omega Girls [4.15]
[edit] Of Mites And Men [4.16]
- Senator Wen: (to Dr. San Agustin) Well, uh, on that note, I'll let you get back to work.
- Carter: Yeah, I should do the same.
- Senator Wen: Oh, you are working.
- (Carter shoots her a confused look over his shoulder)
- Senator Wen: For me. Things will be heating up around here with the tighter deadlines. I'd appreciate your help with extra security.
- Carter: Well, I'd love to, but, uh, I'm the town sheriff. So I have sheriffy things to do.
- Senator Wen: That's politician speak for, "you have to."
[edit] Clash Of The Titans [4.17]
- Holly: We should just have sex. Our budding urges are interfering with our professional ambitions.
- Fargo: (momentarily speechless) Wait, "our" urges? You mean, like, mutual?
- Holly: Definitely. So that's why I think the most sensible course of action is to satisfy them.
- (She moves to embrace him.)
- Fargo: What, now?!
- Holly: Yeah. The sooner we consummate, the sooner we concentrate!
[edit] This One Time At Space Camp... [4.18]
- Dr. Hughes: (beginning his reevaluation of Jack and Allison's relationship using the BioCortex Recorder) So, you two claim to work well together, despite your personal relationship.
- Carter: But we DO work well together, I mean we can think of hundreds of (cuts off as images start filing the screen)
- Dr. Hughes: Excellent! I think we have what we need!
- Allison: (surprised) Oh!
- Carter: That's it?
- Dr. Hughes: Well what were you expecting, The Spanish Inquisition?
- Carter: Well...no one EXPECTS The Spanish Inquisition.
- Fargo: (running with Holly) Maybe we should do some more practice questions. You can never be too prepared.
- Holly: No, Doug, we went on this run to take our minds off the interviews!
- (Parish rides up on his reclining bike)
- Parish: An excellent idea. Best not to focus on the many, MANY ways that you could choke. (begins to ride off) Well, may the best man, blah, blah, blah...
- Fargo: (exhales) Oh, now I'm really stressed. And kinda homicidal.
