• Sarris : [Sarris believes that Nesmith plans to ram his ship]  Let me remind you, sonny: I am a general. If you are counting on me to blink, then you are making a deadly mistake.

  Jason Nesmith : Well, let me tell you something, Sarris: It doesn't take a great actor to recognize a bad one. You're sweating.

  Sarris : You fool! You failed to realize that, with your armor gone, my ship will tear through yours like tissue paper.

  Jason Nesmith : And what you fail to realize is my ship... is dragging mines!

• Jason Nesmith : Okay Gwen, put me back on with him.

  Gwen DeMarco : That's what I've been trying to tell you, Jason. You ARE back with him.

  Sarris : Perhaps I am not as stupid as I am ugly, commander!

  Jason Nesmith : [to Gwen]  I gave you the 'kill' gesture.

  Gwen DeMarco : No, you gave me the 'we're dead' signal. I was agreeing with you. Like I know where the 'hold' button is.

  Jason Nesmith : We, uh, we pretended.

  [On Malthesar's blank look] 

  Jason Nesmith : We lied.

• Jason Nesmith : I'm not the commander!

  Sarris : What did you say?

• Sarris : Release them... Into space.
