Quote:Children of the Gods


 * [First lines of the series]
 * [Soldiers are playing cards in the deserted Gate Room]
 * Dealer: Oh, man, this hand's as lousy as this detail. All right everybody, ante up!


 * 
 * [O'Neill has tossed a Kleenex box through the Stargate to Abydos as a message to Jackson]
 * Maj. Samuels: What if the aliens get it?
 * Col. O'Neill: Well, they could be blowing their noses right now.


 * 
 * Col. O'Neill: Oh, here we go. Another scientist. General, please.
 * Capt. Carter: Theoretical astrophysicist.
 * Col. O'Neill: Which means?
 * Gen. Hammond: Which means she's smarter than you are, Colonel. Especially in matters related to the Stargate.


 * 
 * Capt. Carter: I'm an Air Force officer just like you are, Colonel. And just because my reproductive organs are on the inside instead of the outside, doesn't mean I can't handle whatever you can handle.
 * Jack O'Neill: Oh, this has nothing to do with you being a woman. I like women. I've just got a little problem with scientists.
 * Capt. Carter: Colonel, I logged over 100 hours in enemy airspace during the Gulf War. Is that tough enough for you? Or are we going to have to arm wrestle?


 * 


 * [While examining the DHD on Abydos]
 * Capt. Carter: Amazing. This is what was missing from the dig at Giza. This is how they controlled it. It took us 15 years and 3 supercomputers to MacGyver a system for the gate on Earth. Look how small it is!


 * 


 * [Carter is meeting Daniel Jackson for the first time.]
 * Capt. Carter: Dr. Jackson, I presume.


 * 


 * Col. O'Neill: I can save these people!!
 * [Teal'c points his staff weapon at Jack.]
 * Col. O'Neill: Please! Help me! [pause, quieter] Help me.
 * Teal'c: Many have said that.
 * [Teal'c suddenly turns and shoots another Jaffa. Then tosses O'Neill his staff weapon.]
 * Teal'c: But you are the first I believe could do it!


 * 


 * [Teal'c has betrayed Apophis and all the refugees have fled, leaving him standing forlornly in the chamber.]
 * Col. O'Neill: Hey, come on!
 * Teal'c: I have nowhere to go.
 * O'Neill: For this you can stay at my place, let's go!


 * 


 * [Teal'c pulls up his shirt and the infant Goa'uld comes out of the pouch]:
 * Jack O'Neill: What the hell is that?!
 * Teal'c: It is an infant Goa'uld, the larval form of the gods. I have carried one since I was a child, as all Jaffa carry one.
 * Jack O'Neill: Well, get it out of there.
 * Teal'c: In exchange for carrying the infant Goa'uld into maturity, a Jaffa receives perfect health and long life. If I were to remove it, I would eventually die.
 * Jack O'Neill: Hell, if I were you, I'd take my chances.


 * 


 * [Daniel and Sam are discussing whether or not the Stargate can go to other planets.]
 * Daniel: I'm no astrophysicist, but isn't it possible that planets can drift apart?
 * Carter: I knew I'd like you.
 * Daniel: You mean I'm right?
