Quotes3

  • Captain John Sheridan: Full power! Give me everything you've got!
  • Lennier: If I were holding anything back I would tell you.
  • [first lines]
  • Michael Garibaldi: You know, I've been stuck in this tin can for three years. I haven't taken a vacation. Okay, okay, it's my fault, I had the leave coming, I just didn't take it. And the pay sucks, I knew that when I signed on! And nobody said I'd survive the job! Now, I give you all that. But where in my contract does it say I have to eat the same food... every day... for three years.
  • Capt. John Sheridan: Paragraph 47, subsection 19, clause 9A. You can find it in the index under S.U.A.E.I.
  • Michael Garibaldi: S.U.A.E.I.?
  • Capt. John Sheridan, Cmdr. Susan Ivanova: Shut Up And Eat It.
  • Cook: Excuse me, Commander
  • [she places a covered tray with a note on top of it and whispers something in Ivanova's ear. Ivanova reads the note and gives an exasperated sigh]
  • Michael Garibaldi: What, what what what?
  • Cmdr. Susan Ivanova: It's nothing
  • Capt. John Sheridan: [leans a bit closer to the tray] I smell bacon and eggs.
  • Michael Garibaldi: Get outta here, do you know how hard it is to get eggs up here before they spoil? I have tried, it can't be-
  • [he sniffs the air around the tray]
  • Michael Garibaldi: Yeah... bacon and eggs, definitely.
  • [he lifts the lid to find some strips of real bacon and a mound of scrambled eggs. Both he and Sheridan let out expressions of awe]
  • Cmdr. Susan Ivanova: It's from Marcus.
  • [Sheridan and Garibaldi exchange looks]
  • Cmdr. Susan Ivanova: It's nothing like that, I did him a favor. I got him an Identicard so he could use some of the facilities on the station. He asked what he could do for me in return, I said 'Surprise me'.
  • Michael Garibaldi: I can get anchovies, I can get olive oil, anything that doesn't spoil, I haven't seen a fresh chicken egg in over three years... I mean, cooked or otherwise.
  • Capt. John Sheridan: And bacon? Forget it!
  • Cmdr. Susan Ivanova: [Letting out another sigh and looking slightly guilty] Look... if you want it, it's yours.
  • Michael Garibaldi: Oh no we wouldn't dream of it.
  • Capt. John Sheridan: Go on, eat.
  • Michael Garibaldi: We'll just sit right here.
  • Capt. John Sheridan: Uh-huh. And watch.
  • Cmdr. Susan Ivanova: [Shaking her head in embarrassment] I'm gonna kill him. After breakfast... if I can find him.
