It takes around two hours for me to collect a full list of quotes for each episode because I have to constantly stop and type and try to half-way remember what was said and I hunt and peck. I got red eyes and hurting hands over this so be thankful! The time spent on collecting quotes also depends on whether there is alot of talking or not [most of the time their is]. Remember, alot of these quotes contain spoilers for the series so you may not want to read some of them.
If you want to see how long it takes to collect quotes than pick an episode from your favorite series and start writing stuff down. I have more respect for the people that do the captions on shows. :)
Militia Man: Over here.
Corperal: Yes sir, Colonel, I hear you loud and clear. Code Red. Understood. Anyone without authorization in restricted areas is to be terminnated on sight. Understood?
Militia Men [in unison]: Yes sir!
Laura: Friendly place. I thought you said this was going to be straightfoward, in and out?
Ethaniel: Maybe infallibility isn't my strong suit. I wonder what the Army is doing here?
Laura: Thats not the army. Those guys call themselves the Militia, volunteers, friends of the flag patriots. They think of themselves as freedom fighters.
Ethaniel: Huh, and they work for Banning?
MM: Let's go!
Ethaniel: They're fanning out, lets move.
Militia Men: Lets go! Lets move out!
Laura: Do you think Byders right. Do you think those were the guys that blew up Rockbridge's Steel plant last month?
Ethaniel: Rockbridge made a dangerous decision when he canceled Banning's steel. That bomb they've got inside this place could make Rockbrige a funny saying.
Laura: You mean a joke?
Ethaniel: That's the word.
Laura: Do you think you can diffuse it?
Ethaniel: The bombs got a deteonater. Detonaters a machine, it has rules. I just have to be able to get in there and find it.
Laura: We got to get in there and find it before Banning's infantry finds us.
M1 to Milita man 2: You mean you really arn't curious about where were going to take the damn thing tonight and who were going to blow it to hell?
Ethaniel: I knew I'd feel better if I knew you were out of here safely.
Laura: There's probably more of them here on partol than inside. I'm safer with you.
M2: We're soldiers. We do what our commanding officers tell us.
M1:Were Militia, if I wanted to be treated like some grunt soldier who takes orders without wondering, I would have joined the regular freaking Army. I joined the Militia so I wouldn't be treated like a damn moron.
M2: You got to watch how you talk, Russel. You just watch how you talk.
M1: Stop right there. Man says shoot on sight. Well, I've seen ya.
M1: Then again there's always time to kill you. I figure there is things some people would like to ask you first. Get inside. Put your gun down. Put your gun down!
Ethaniel: Make a sound, it may be your last. Get inside.
Ethaniel: Move!
Ethaniel: Where's the bomb?
M1: Inside Turbine room. B6.
Ethaniel: Good.
M1: Boy, you crazy? You play with that thing it will blow us to hell!
Ethaniel: Then you better hope I know what I am doing. Move.
M1: If you want to get out of here alive, give me your guns and I will take you as my prisoners. It's your best scenerio.
Ethaniel: Thanks for the offer. Every soldier knows you never surrender you weapon, never lay your gun down to the enemy.
M1: You Special Forces or somethin? I mean by the way you moved I figured you probably were, a Navy Seal, Ranger, Marine or maybe some kind of hush hush unit, am I right?
Ethaniel: Nobodies even got no name for my unit, soldier. Lets go. Who's the target of your bomb?
M1: We operate on a need to know basis and I didn't need to know yet.
Laura: What do you know about David Banning?
M1:Banning funded some of our operations. Colonel thought it was because he shared our vision. We found out better. He was using us to do our strong arm work.
Ethaniel: Sounds like your Colonel is looking for an excuse.
M1: Cornel's got a vision, got a mission. Going to clean up this mess our country's in.
Dent [background, to Colonel]: I came because Mr. Banning has lost faith in your...
Ethaniel: Against the wall!
Laura: What's Dent doing here?
Ethaniel: I dont know. But it proves our suspicions, they're working together.
Dent: What is nessesccary? Is that different from what Mr. Banning wanted you to do? Because if it is than that is a very dangerous way to operate.
Colonel: Dangerous for who sir?
Dent: [looks around] Oh,let me see...There is only your people and my people here. So I'd have to say for you. You have a weapon that belongs to Mr. Banning.
Colonel: He gave it to me.
Dent: It was intended for a very specific purpose. To further his financial intrests.
Colonel: To use it against one of his enemies.
Dent: Banning was assured that his interest coincided with yours.
Colonel: That was until I learned more. Your employer is one of the enemy.
Dent: We had recieved some information that you were going to use the weapon against us. And I would have to believe that there is some truth to that rumor.
Colonel: You don't know what your talking about.
Dent: But I do. Mr. Banning knows everything. And, he wants his boom box back.
Colonel: Don't worry, w'ell give it to him.
Colonel: Take him!
Ethaniel: The more they focus on shooting each other the better chance we have on getting the device.
M1: Hold fire, its me! [he runs into line of fire and gets shot and goes down] UGh!
Colonel: Who the hell is that!
Laura: What are you doing?
Ethaniel: It is our turn for us to rock and roll our way out of here.
Laura: I am not sure you are using the phrase quite right.
Ethaniel: Oh, you can explain it to me later.
Ethaniel: Run!
Militia Men: Down there! Down there! Whoa! He's got a gun!
Ethaniel: This wouldn't have been the room I would have choose to end up in.
Laura: Up here.
Ethaniel: Climb up.
Laura: Come on, grab my hand.
Ethaniel: It's too late. They're coming. Make your way to B6 the Turbine room. I'll neet you there!
Milita Men [metal shelves fall on them]: Uh! Ahhhh!
Colonel: Drop your weapons and I'll let you live. You can take a message back to Banning.
Dent: Mr. Banning doesn't like to hear bad news.
Colonel: Drop your guns Mr.Dent! It's the only way out alive. Think smart. Think for yourself.
Dent: You have a good point, Colonel.
Colonel:[bullets ricoshe off Dent]: What the hell! Take him down!
[a RPG is fired and Dent is caught in the blast but survives with damage]
Colonel: Did you see that?
Soldier: Sure did.
Colonel: Man's not human.
Dent: [Ethaniel enters turbine room B6]: You should knock before you come in, Ethaniel. You can get hurt. [Ethaniel has gun leveled at Dent] Are you going to shoot or not. A couple more pieces of led, whats that going to do? IT'S GOING TO TAKE ALOT MORE THAN THAT TO KILL ME!
Ethaniel: You're right. Why waste the bullets? [he grabs a nearby axe] Now, how should I do this? Head first, legs, ARMS? Do you have a brain inside that head or is it just spead all over? Little nano-chips filled with smart ass comebacks. Maybe a little nano heart somewhere? Maybe I should cut that out first!
Dent: Don't be an idiot. You destroy me, you destroy any chance you have of getting out of here.
Ethaniel: I think I'll take my chances.
Dent: Uhhh! Thats pretty cavalier. Huh! I like that, thats what I would do. Maybe you have a little less of that human kindness in your veins than Mr. banning thought, huh?
Ethaniel: You just can't shut up can you!
Dent: Ethaniel, if you dont leave here, than neither will your girl.
Ethaniel: She can take care of herself.
Dent: Sure she can. As soon as she is finished taking out ten armed men one by one. She can use a little pshycology on the colonel. Show him the error of his ways. Point out that the he is doing all of this is because his mother stopped breast feeding him too early.
Ethaniel: Who the hell programmed you will all of this drivel?
Dent: I learned from the best. I am virtual encyclopedia without all of the boring stuff. Mr. Banning was a wise creator. He just gave me the good parts.
Ethaniel: Banning didn't create you. My bother created you.
Dent: Nice try.
Ethaniel: Don't you think that if Banning created a monster like you he would have an entire army of them.
Dent: He doesn't have too. I am special.
Ethaniel: Oh, and how is that?
Dent: He told me.
Ethaniel: Do you believe everything you are told Dent?
Dent: Never. Only what-
Ethaniel: Mr. Banning says. Like all the other good stuff he programmed into you. Face it Dent, Thorber created you. And whatever you were supposed to be Banning corrupted.
Dent: I am exactly what I'm suppose to be. Your brother is a sap, coward like you.
Ethaniel: Where is he?
Dent: He is your brother, if you can't keep track of him than that is your problem. One of them anyway, unless of course your girl...Laura, unless she's dead already. Or did you just run, and look for a place to save yourself, huh?
Ethaniel: Tell me about the Militia and it's Colonel.
Dent: Why should I?
Ethaniel: So I don't kill you this second.
Ethaniel: So tell me about the circitry. What kind of booby traps.
Dent: If I tell you, what's to say your not just going to chop me up?
Ethaniel: Then you'll just have to tust me.
Dent: Trust you? Let me just reconstruct a little then-
Ethaniel: Then you'll attack me, No thanks.
Laura: [on walkie-talkie] Ethaniel, where are you? Damn it answer.
Dent: Are you gonna answer that?
Ethaniel: Laura, where are you?
Laura: I don't know really.
Ethaniel: Your still inside? Get out of the building.
Laura: I'd like too. Not so easy though. There are Militia boys everywhere. Where are you?
Ethaniel: I'm down in B6. They know I'm here and they're trying to get in. Dent's with me.
Laura: Are you alright?
Ethaniel: Fine. Stay off the air and lay low. I will try to contact you when...things change.
Laura: Gotcha.
Corperal: Got her!
Corperal: There she is.
[Laura shoots at him]
Corperal: No-no, wait!
[Laura runs]
Corperal: Okay, move.
Corperal: [finds walkie-talkie but no Laura] Damn it. Let's get that bitch. Come on.
Colonel: Coperal, where's the girl?
Coperal: She, uh, slipped away, sir.
Colonel: What is this?
Corperal: It's hers, we picked up the communication.
Colonel: Give me that. This is the Colonel, do you read me?
Ethaniel: I can read you loud and clear. Where's Laura?
Colonel: Girl's alive.
Ethaniel: Let me talk to her.
Colonel: I can't do that. She's taken cover, a fugitive. We have the premesis surrounded, its just a matter of time. Why don't you come out of that control room so that we can talk.
Ethaniel: Well there really isn't much to talk about at this point Colonel, I've got your bomb here. You make sure that Laura gets out of here safely, then well talk.
Colonel: I don't think you our in the position to make any demands, sir.
Ethaniel: Oh, I'm in the position to blow us all to hell.
Colonel: Whats your name friend and whats your intrest here? Didn't seem to be like you are a part of Bannings group, son. The way I see it where on the same side.
Ethaniel: I don't think so.
Colonel: Well we share the same enemy, that's something. Is that thing still moving?
Ethaniel: The important thing is Laura's safety.
Colonel: You have my word on that. In the meantime it wouldn't hurt either on of us if you terminate Mr. Dent. He's an ambomination.
Ethaniel: Oh, I am aware of what Mr. Dent is.
Colonel: Good. Now do the world a favor will yaou and pull the plug on him.
Ethaniel: And the only thing I want to hear form you ,Colonel, is that Laura is out of this place alive and unharmed.
Colonel: Find that girl.
Coperal: Yes, sir,...lets go!
Sergent: Are we going to release her, sir?
Colonel: Lets just see how this scrimage plays out, Sergent.
Sergent: Yes sir!
Ethaniel: You reconstruct pretty well.
Dent: I've had practice. The outer layers are easy to reconstruct. But when my tech has to rebuild moter function and nerve systems it is a little more difficult.
Ethaniel: Pretty soon you will be able to fight me.
Dent: Look, We both want to take out that Colonel. I propose we work together until he is done. Deal?
Ethaniel: Why should I trust you?
Dent: You shouldn't. But then again, you don't have much of a choice, do you?
Ethaniel: Tell me more about the bomb.
Dent: It's not a conventional. And its not the kind of equipment the Colonel has been used to. It's not the hardware store fertilizer in a box veriety. It's something special. If he gets to use it he'll have his name in the history books. Thats why the Colonel hasn't packed the steel door with explosives and blasted his way in.
Ethaniel: Banning built this bomb?
Dent: It is a multi-blast composite explosive desgined to send succesive blast waves powerful enough to destory several city blocks or one of Banning's instellations.
Ethaniel: Banning gave his toy to a lunatic and then lost it.
Dent: The bomb is our biggest barganing chip. I happen to know the bombs activating and deactivating procedures for the bombs multi-reactionary detonator. Thats why you're not going to kill me.
Ethaniel: Okay, say I don't want to kill you. Tell me how the detonator works.
Dent: Of course, but first I need a little help from you to finish reconstructing myself.
Ethaniel: Oh, you got to be kidding.
Dent: If I had Mr. Bannings renwal chamber, the kind of repairs I'd have to do would take minutes. By myself it would take time, more than we have, yes. A little help from you and we'll be in shape to show that Colonel what a battle truely is.
Dent: [about Ethaniel repairing him] You have a nice touch.
Ethaniel: You are a quite remarkable creation in spite who you are.
Dent: Well you know what the humans say. What doesn't kill me makes me stronger.
Ethaniel: Just a blockage, I can't get past it.
Dent: Theres a block on my operating system. Don't worry about that, just fix my body.
Ethaniel: No, I can't. Pathways I need to access...I need to get through this.
Dent: I have to release that and I'm not going to.
Ethaniel: Listen, You where the one that talked about trust. If you dont want me to fix you...
Dent: It's done, what you asked, now repair me.
Dent: Maybe the problems all in my head. If your friend Laura was in here with us she could help me out. [he starts making up imaginary things and spouting them] Dr. Keating, I have this problem. People don't understand me and I dont know why. Can you help me? [as Laura's voice] What makes you think that people don't understand you, Albert. [as Dent] Oh, I love it when people call me Albert, docter. But the real issue is that I like to hurt people, I don't know if it is a cry for help or if it is the fact that I really love to do it.
Ethaniel: Shut up.
Dent: Just having some fun, partner.
[Ethaniel finishes his repairs]
Ethaniel: Done.
Dent: Thank you for the body work, but you were right earlier. I am untrustworthy as hell.
Dent:[Ethaniel bumps into the bomb and the countdown starts] I told you the detonators unstable. It wasn't designed so that someone can just walk right up to it and shut it off.
Dent: You don't want to do this.
Ethaniel: You don't know how wrong you are.
Dent: You need me.
Ethaniel: Why?
Dent: I know things about the circuits and if were going to get this thing shut down, we need the other.
Ethaniel: You want to work together.
Dent: Oh yeah.
Dent: So?
Ethaniel: I can't get any clear sense of it.
Dent: I told you. Thats the beauty of that detonator. Once it has been triggerd because the circuits arn't hardwired they keep rerouting themselves every few seconds.
Ethaniel: So the combination that diffuses it now may not work a minute from now.
Dent: Exacty.
Ethaniel: I have to figure this out.
Dent: Well,figure fast. I have to take that bomb back to Mr. banning.
Ethaniel: You don't really think I'm going to let you take it do you?
Dent: You don't really think you can stop me do you?
Dent: There is something wrong. You did something to me when you were in there.
Ethaniel: Now that you mention it I might have. I didn't think you would notice so soon.
Dent: What did you do?
Ethaniel: Nothing much...just restored a couple of factory settings. You might enjoy having a conscience Dent.
Dent: No...NOOOOOO!
Dent: Not as as easy as it looks, is it?
Ethaniel: I don't even know where to start.
Dent: Wherever you start you better be careful. The bomb was built with Theran abilities in mind.
Ethaniel: What are you talking about?
Dent: If you try to communicate with the wrong part of the bomb, it will know there was an attempt and it will blow automatically.
Ethaniel: Banning thinks of everything, except that someone may use his weapon against him.
Dent: Don't speak that way about him. Banning will kill you for what you have did to me.
Ethaniel: He hasn't had any luck so far. And as for what I did to you, you haven't even started to feel it yet, someone as dead on the inside as you are. It will take a while before you even know what you are feeling. Another thing I gave you is freewill, the ability to decide what to think and do, even if Banning gives you an order.
Dent: I will think what I've always thought. I will do what I have always done, Bannings will.
Ethaniel: Maybe.
Ethaniel: I'm in. I can see the structure. I'm going to try to isolate the detonator.
Dent: Be careful were you step, Ethaniel. The life you save might be mine.
Dent:[ using Bannings's voice] It is good to see that you have accepted your true nature, Ethaniel. We both knew you would come around, didn't we? Yes, we are not like these others, these humans. No, Ethaniel, we are destined for eternity.
Ethaniel: You talk that way around Banning.
Dent: He is not amused by that sort of thing. I wasn't eithier until today.
Dent: [using Banning's voice] That will be all Mr. Dent. Oh, and don't forget to kill the butcher after you have raped and pillaged the village.
Ethaniel: I didnt know you were so talanted Dent.
Dent: I never forget a voice. [using Ethaniels voice] I didnt know you where so talented Dent. I admire you. I wish I was just like you.
Ethaniel: Now, you are getting on my nerves.
Ethaniel: I've located the detonator.
Dent: The mine field. On tippy toes now.
Ethaniel: It's as you say. The circut pads are shifting, its impossible to fix the pattern.
Dent: Even if you find the right pattern for a few seconds you have to diffuse it and break the connection before the code changes again, otherwise..
Ethaniel: I know, it goes off, we die, six blocks vaporised.
Dent: I'm glad your keeping that in mind.
Ethaniel: What if I shut off the timer?
Dent: No, after the device has been triggered stopping the timer will activate one of two other trigger boards which keeps the countdown alive. Not only alive but more difficult to shutdown. Shut off each of those and they spawn two more, just like the hydra.
Ethaniel: Cut off one head and two more appear.
Dent: And you have exaclty ten minutes to get it right.
Ethaniel: One of my brothers hobbies was this wrolds culteral mythologies.
Dent: I'm touched.
Ethaniel: Who do you think put all of the mythology in your head? You know alot about it, don't you?
Dent: I know alot about everything.
Ethaniel: You still didn't anewser my question.
Dent: Nobody disputes that your brother was a smart guy, he may have even helped a little, but it was Mr. Banning that created me.
Ethaniel: As you say.
Dent: [sighs] Okay. Your brother.
Ethaniel: Yes.
Dent: What would he have wanted from someone like, me?
Ethaniel: If he created you?
Dent: Yes, if he created me? I know what Banning wants. His requests are simple and yet generally violent.
Ethaniel: My brother believed it was his mission to scout this world for resources our people needed. Things poinsonous to the inhabitants this world but vital to our survival. Things like carbon monoxide mercury ,arsenic. We planed to trade things from our world of no valure to us, oxygen, diamonds. We would also share technologies.
Dent: Where do I fit into all of this?
Ethaniel: Our bodies were not made to last in this world. We needed someone who could live in either wolrd and adapt. Someone to facilitate the relationships.
Dent: He wanted an ambassedor?
Ethaniel: I know his mission. It makes sense.
Dent: Your as crazy as he is.
Ethaniel: You better hope that I'm not crazy at all.
Sergent: Stay like that, sister. Don't even breathe funny.
Sergent: Your not with Banning, who are you? The government?
Laura: No, just someone who doesn't want to see alot of innocent people slaughtered because someone thinks they got a mission.
Sergent: Nobodies slaughtering anybody. You know where that bomb is going? Right where it belongs, right back in Banning's lap.
Laura: That bomb will blow up an entire neighborhood.
Sergent: Where not hitting a neighborhood. Where taking out one of Banning's factories. Do you have any idea what they make there?
Laura: No idea, probably something toxic.
Sergent: You got that right. The byproducts alone can turn this country into a wasteland.
Laura: Don't be sure thats not the main purpose.
Sergent: What do you know about it?
Laura: You wouldn't believe me if I told you. When you blow up this plant, you gonna make sure it is empty first?
Sergent: There are always casualties. We try to contain them. If I were you I would try real hard to get your boyfriend or whatever he is out of that room before things get too ugly.
Laura: How much uglier can they get?
Sergent: If you are doing this just because you do not like to see any innocent people die, make sure you and your friend walk out of this place.
Sergent: Stand down, Coperal. That is an order.
Corperal: This isn't over.
MM: [to Laura] Lets go.
Dent: No, not that one!
Ethaniel: How do you know? How do you know it is the wrong one?
Dent: Intuition. Gut feeling.
Ethaniel: Smart ass and as quasi-humanoid as you are, Dent, you don't intuitin and you have no gut.
Dent: It's just language, a little metaphor. Do you know that word?
Ethaniel: Oh, I know metaphor. And I want trying to insult you. What your calling intuition is more than that. What your reacting to is concrete stimulis.
Dent: Hmm. You do know big words. Did you brother teach them to you?
Ethaniel: If it is the stimulus that makes you understand that the bomb may be hirdwired into your technology than your technology may be similar to...the detonator logic system.
Dent: Heaven, it will go off.
Ethaniel: If we can sychronize your brain with the bombs circutry than we may be able to force its firing circuts to remain stable long enough to shut it down.
Dent: Or we might make it blow instantly.
Ethaniel: I dont think we have any other choce.
Colonel: [walkie-talkie] This is the Colonel. Do you read me?
Ethaniel: I read you.
Colonel: I did what you asked. I got the girl.
Ethaniel: Where is she.
Colonel: Right here with me. She wants to see you so why don't you come on out.
Ethaniel: Let me talk to her.
Colonel: Maybe you didnt hear what I said. Your girl wants to see you, if you want to see her alive I need to see you out here now.
Segent: But sir, I told the prisoner that we would not harm her if-
Colonel: Huh, this is a battle sitation, war. This is no time for those warm fuzzies, sergent. Do you read me friend?
Laura: Ethaniel, don't open the door!
Dent: You are crazy. That man is as stupid of a human as I've seen. he is going to kill her anyway. Take it from me, I would.
Ethaniel: I can't let them kill Laura!
Dent: Where all going to die anyway. There is a minute left on the timer.
Ethaniel: [walkie-talkie] Colonel, Im coming out! Hold your fire!
Dent: What are you doing?
Ethaniel: Its now or never, come here fast! I need to sychronize you to the bomb. We need to find the firing circut and freeze it.
Dent: If you've broken my programming, my dedication to orders. What makes you think that I'm not going to blow this thing up right now!
Ethaniel: Look in inside it, Dent. You are different. You really want to end your existance now?
Dent: Just do it.
Colonel: Get in position.The second that door opens a dog's hair charge with extreme prejudice.
Dent: Okay, I've got it. I can't hold it much longer, hurry. Faster!
Ethaniel: I'm almost there. Got it.
Dent: How much time?
Ethaniel: Ten seconds and counting. Cover the bomb!
Militia Men: [bomb explodes] Augghh! Ahhhhh!
Sergent: [to MM] Lets go.
Dent: The way I tried to kill you in there, was nothing personal. Just wanted you to know.
Ethaniel: I understand.
Dent: I want you to know too, for next time...
Laura: What happened in there?
Ethaniel: Not much. We got the detonator to blow and not the bomb.
Laura: Nothing personal.
Ethaniel: Maybe.
Laura: So, how are his inpersonations?
Ethaniel: Uncanny.
Laura: I mean, did he sound like the people he was imitating?
Ethaniel: Exactly.
Laura: Are you going to keep giving me one word anwsers?
Ethaniel: He's pretty damn good. When he did you it gave me the shivers.
Laura: How bout the real me?
Ethaniel: What about the real you?
Laura: Do I give you shivers?
Ethaniel: I believe you do.
Laura: Good answer.
Newscaster: Demoltion experts report that the bomb was diffused when they arrived on the scene. The one megaton bomb was powerful enough to destroy several- [Banning stops Dent]
Banning: What did you do in that chamber?
Dent: Oh, Not much. Just worked on the detonator after Ethaniel set it off. He was jabbering away about his brother mostly.
Banning: What did he say?
Dent: Drivel, the way he was talking, it was like Thorber was responsible for evey scientific innovation back here and in your world.
Banning: Did he mention any specific inventions? Anything of intrest to you?
Dent: No. Nothing. I wasn't paying too much attention. I had a detonator to fix.
Banning: You are a remakable creature Mr. Dent.
Dent: Thankyou.
Banning: I am not sure how I would get along without you.
Dent: I'm not going anywhere.
Banning: No, of course not.
straightfoward, in and out?
Ethaniel: Maybe infallibility isn't my strong suit. I wonder whats the Army doing?
Laura: Thats not the army. Those guys call themselves the Militia, volunteers, friends of the flag patriots. They think of themselves as freedom fighters.
Ethaniel: Huh, and they work for Banning?
Ethaniel: They're fanning out, lets move.
Militia Men: Lets go! Lets move out!
Laura: Do you think Byders right. Do you think those were the guys that blew up Rocksbridge's Steel plant last month?
Ethaniel: Rockbridge made a dangerous decision when he canceled Banning's steel. That bomb they've got inside this place could make Rockbrige a funny saying.
Laura: You mean a joke?
Ethaniel: Thats the word.
Laura: Do you think you can diffuse it?
Ethaniel: The bombs got a deteonater. Detonaters a machine, it has rules. I just have to get in there and find it.
Laura: We got to get in there and find it before Banning's infantry finds us.
M1 to Milita man 2: You mean you really arn't curious about where were gonna take the damn thing tonight and who were going to blow it to hell?
Ethaniel: I knew I'd feel better if I knew you were out of here safely.
Laura: There's probably more of them here on partol than inside. I'm safer with you.
M2: We're soldiers. We do what our commanding officers tell us.
M1:Were the Militia, if I wanted to be treated like some grunt soldier who takes orders without wondering, I would have joined the regular freaking Army. I joined the Militia so I wouldn't be treated like a damn moron.
M2: You got to watch how you talk, Russel. You just watch how you talk.
M1: Stop right there. Man says shoot on sight. Well, Iv'e seen ya.
M1: Then again there is always time to kill you. I figure there is things some people would like to ask you first. Get inside. Put your gun down. Put your gun down!
Ethaniel: Make a sound, it may be your last. Get inside.
Ethaniel: Move!
Ethaniel: Where's is the bomb?
M1: Inside Turbine room. B6.
Ethaniel: Good.
M1: Boy, you crazy? You play with that thing it will blow us to hell!
Ethaniel: Then you better hope I know what I am doing. Move.
M1: If you want to get out of here alive, give me your guns and I will take you as my prisoners. It's your best scenerio.
Ethaniel: Thanks for the offer. Every soldier knows you never surrender you weapon, never lay your gun down to the enemy.
M1: You Special Forces or somethin? By the way you moved I figured you were, a Navy Seal, Ranger, Marine or maybe some kind of hush hush unit, am I right?
Ethaniel: Nobodies even got no name for my unit, soldier. Lets go. Who's the target of your bomb?
M1: We operate on a need to know basis and I didn't need to know yet.
Laura: What do you know about David banning?
M1:Banning funded some of our operations. Colonel thought it was because he shared our vision. We found out better. He was using us for our strong arm work.
Ethaniel: Sounds like your Colonel is looking for an excuse.
M1: Cornels got a vision, got a mission. Going to clean up this mess our country's in.
Dent [background, to Colonel]: I came because Mr. Banning has lost faith in your...
Ethaniel: Against the wall!
Laura: Whats Dent doing here?
Ethaniel: I dont know. But it proves our suspicions, they're working together.
Dent: What is nessesccary? Is that very different from what Mr. Banning wanted you to do? Because if it is than that is a very dangerous way to operate.
Colonel: Dangerous for who sir?
Dent: [looks around] Well, there is only your people and my people here. So I'd have to say for you. You have a weapon that belongs to Mr. Banning.
Colonel: He gave it to me.
Dent: It was intended for a very specific purpose. To further against his financial intrests.
Colonel: To use it against one of his enemies.
Dent: Banning was assured that his interest coincided with yours.
Colonel: That was until I learned more. Your employer is one of the enemy.
Dent: We had recieved some information that you were going to use the weapon against us. And I would have to believe that there is some truth to that rumor.
Colonel: You don't know what your talking about.
Dent: But I do. Mr. Banning knows everything. And, he wants his boom box back.
Colonel: Don't worry, w'ell give it to him.
C: Take him!
E: The more they focus on shooting each other the better chance we have on getting the device.
M1: Hold fire, its me! [he runs into line of fire and gets shot and goes down]
Laura: What are you doing?
Ethaniel: Time for us to rock and roll our way out of here.
Laura: I am not quite sure you are using the phrase quite right.
Ethaniel: Oh, you can explain it to me later.
Colonel: Who the hell is that!
Ethaniel: Run!
Militia Men: Down there! Down there! Whoa! He's got a gun!
Ethaniel: This wouldn't have been the room I would have choose to end up in.
Ethaniel: Climb up.
Laura: Quick. Grab my hand.
Ethaniel: It's too late. They're coming. Make your way to B6 the Turbine room. I'll neet you there!
Milita Men [metal shelves fall on them]: Uh! Ahhhh!
Colonel: Drop your weapons and I'll let you live. You can take a message back to Banning.
Dent: Mr. Banning doesn't like to hear bad news.
Colonel: Drop your weapons Mr.Dent! Its the only way out alive. Think smart. Think for yourself.
Dent: You have a good point, Colonel.
Colonel:[bullets ricoshe off Dent]: What the hell! Take him down!
[a RPG is fired and Dent is caught in the blast but survives with damage]
Colonel: Did you see that?
Soldier: Sure did.
Colonel: Man's not human.
Dent: [Ethaniel enters turbine room B6]: You should knock before you come in, Ethaniel. You can get hurt. [Ethaniel has gun leveled at Dent] Are you going to shoot or not. A couple more pieces of led, whats that going to do? IT'S GOING TO TAKE ALOT MORE THAN THAT TO KILL ME!
Ethaniel: Your right. Why waste the bullets? [he grabs a nearby axe] Now, how should I do this? Head first, legs, ARMS? Do you have a brain inside that head or is it just spead all over? Little nano-chips filled with smart ass combacks. Maybe a little nano heart somewhere? Maybe I should cut that out first!
Dent: Don't be an idiot. You destroy me, you destroy any chance you have of getting out of here.
Ethaniel: I think I'll take my chances.
Dent: Uhhh! Thats pretty cavalier. I like that, thats what I would do. Maybe you have a little less of that human kindness in your veins than Mr. banning thought huh?
Ethaniel: You just can't shut up can you!
Dent: Ethaniel, if you dont leave here, than neither will your girl.
Ethaniel: She can take care of herself.
Dent: Sure she can. As soon as she is finished taking out ten armed men one by one. She can use a little pshycology on the colonel. Show him the error of his ways. Point out that the he is doing all of this is because his mother stopped breast feeding him too early.
Ethaniel: Who the hell programmed you will all of this drivel?
Dent: I learned from the best. I'm virtual encyclopedia without all of the boring stuff. Mr. Baanning was a wise creator. He gave me all of the good parts.
Ethaniel: Banning didn't create you. My bother created you.
Dent: Nice try.
Ethaniel: Don't you think that if Banning created a monster like you he would have an entire army of them by now.
Dent: He doesn't have too. I am special.
Ethaniel: Oh' and how is that?
Dent: He told me.
Ethaniel: Do you believe everything you are told Dent?
Dent: Never. Only what-
Ethaniel: Mr. Banning says. Like all the other good stuff he programmed into you. Face it Dent, Thorber created you. And whatever you were supposed to be Banning corrupted.
Dent: I am exactly what I am suppose to be. Your brothe is a sap, coward like you.
Ethaniel: Where is he?
Dent: He is your brother, if you can't keep track of him than that is your problem. One of them anyway, unless your girl...Laura, unless she's dead already. Or did you just run, and look for a place to save yourself huh?
Ethaniel: Tell me about the Militia and it's Coronel.
Dent: Why should I?
Ethaniel: So I don't kill you this second.
Ethaniel: So tell me about the circitry. What kind of booby traps.
Dent: If I tell you, whats to say your not just going to chop me up?
Ethaniel: I guess you'll just have to tust me.
Dent: Trust you? Let me just reconstruct a little then-
Ethaniel: Then you'll attack me, No thanks.
Laura: [on walkie-talkie] Ethaniel, where are you? Damn it awnser.
Dent: Are you gonna answer that?
Ethaniel: Laura, where are you?
Laura: I don't know really.
Ethaniel: Your still inside? Get out of the building.
Laura: I'd like too. Not so easy though. There are Militia boys everywhere. Where are you?
Ethaniel: I'm down in B6. They know I'm here and they're trying to get in. Dent's with me.
Laura: Are you alright?
Ethaniel: Fine. Stay off the air and lay low. I will try to contact you when things change.
Laura: Gotcha.
Corperal: Got her.
Corperal: There she is.
[Laura shoots at him]
Corperal: No-no, wait!
[Laura runs]
Corperal: Okay, move!
Corperal: [finds walkie-talkie but no Laura] Damn it. Let's get that bitch. Come on.
c: Coperal, wheres the girl?
Coperal: She, uh, slipped away, sir.
C: What is this?
Corperal: It's hers, we picked up the communication.
Colonel: Give me that. This is the Cornel, do you read me?
Ethaniel: I can read you loud and clear. Where's Laura?
Colonel: She's alive.
Ethaniel: Let me talk to her.
Colonel: I can't do that. Shes taken cover, a fugitive. We have the premesis surrounded, its just a matter of time. Why don't you come out of that control room so that we can talk.
Ethaniel: Well there really isn't much to talk about at this point C, I got your bomb here. You make sure that Laura gets out of here safely, then well talk.
Colonel: I don't think you our in the position to make any demands, sir.
Ethaniel: Oh, I'm in the position to blow us all to hell.
Colonel: Whats your name friend and whats your intrest here? Didn't seem to be like you are a part of Bannings group, son. The way I see it where on the same side.
Ethaniel: I don't think so.
Colonel: Well we share the same enemy, thats something. Is that thing still moving?
Ethaniel: The important thing is Laura's safety.
Colonel: You have my word on that. In the meantime it wouldn't hurt ether on of us if you terminate Mr. Dent. He's an ambomination.
Ethaniel: Oh' I am aware of what Mr. Dent is.
Colonel: Good. Now do the world a favor will yaou and pull the plug on him.
Ethaniel: And the only thing I want to hear form you ,Coronel, is that Laura is out of this place alive and unharmed.
Colonel: Find that girl.
Coperal: Yes, sir,...lets go!
Sergent: Are we going to release her, sir?
C: Lets just see how this scrimage plays out, Sergent.
Sergent: Yes sir!
Ethaniel: You reconstruct pretty well.
Dent: I've had practice. The outer layers are easy to reconstruct. But when my tech has to reconstruct moter function and nerve systems it is a little more difficult.
Ethaniel: Pretty soon you will be able to fight me.
Dent: Look, We both want to take out that Colonel. I propose we work together until he is done. Deal?
Ethaniel: Why should I trust you?
Dent: You shouldn't. But then again, you don't have much of a choice, do you?
Ethaniel: Tell me more about the bomb.
Dent: Its not a conventional. And its not the kind of equipment the colonel has been used to. It's not the hardware store fertilizer in a box veriety. Its something special. If he gets to use it he'll have his name in the history books. Thats why the Colonel hasn't packed the steel door with explosives and blasted his way in.
Ethaniel: Banning built this bomb?
Dent: It is a multi-blast composite explosive desgined to send succesive blast waves powerful enough to destory several city blocks or one of Banning's instellations.
Ethaniel: Banning gave his toy to a lunatic and then lost it.
Dent: The bomb is our biggest barganing chip. I happen to know the bombs activating and deactivating procedures for the bombs multi-reactionary detonator. Thats why you're not going to kill me.
Ethaniel: Okay, say I don't want to kill you. Tell me how the detonator works.
Dent: Of course, but first I need a little help from you to finish reconstructing myself.
Ethaniel: Oh' you got to be kidding.
Dent: If I had Mr. Bannings renweal chamber, the kind of repairs I'd have to do would take minutes. By myself it would take time, more than we have, yes. A little help from you and we'll be in shape to show that colonel what a battle truely is.
Dent:[about Ethaniel repairing him] You have a nice touch.
Ethaniel: You are a quite emarkable creation in spite what you are.
Dent: Well you know what the humans say. What doesn't kill me makes me stronger.
Ethaniel: Just a blockage, I can't get past it.
Dent: Theres a block on my operating system. Don't worry about that, just fix my body.
Ethaniel: No, I cant. Pathways I need to access...I need to get through this.
Dent: I have to release that and I'm not going to.
Ethaniel: Listen, You where the one that talked about trust. If you dont want me to fix you...
Dent: It's done, what you asked, now repair me.
Dent: Maybe the problems all in my head. If your friend Laura was in here with us she could help me out. [he starts making up imaginary things and spouting them] Dr. Keating, I have this problem. People don't understand me and I dont know why. [as Laura's voice] What makes you think that people don't understand you, Albert. [as Dent] Oh, I love it when people call me Albert. But the real issue is that I like to hurt people, I don't know if it is a cry for help or if it is the fact that I really like to do it.
Ethaniel: Shut up.
Dent: Just having some fun, partner.
[Ethaniel finishes his repairs]
Ethaniel: Done.
Dent: Thank you for the body work, but you were right earlier. I am untrustworthy as hell.
Dent:[Ethaniel bumps into the bomb and the countdown starts] I told you the detonators unstable. It wasn't designed so that someone can just walk right up to it and shut it off.
Dent: You don't want to do this.
Ethaniel: You don't know how wrong you are.
Dent: You need me.
Ethaniel: Why?
Dent: I know things about the circuits and if were going to get this thing shut down, we need the other.
Ethaniel: You want to work together.
Dent: Oh yeah.
Dent: So?
Ethaniel: I can't get any clear sense of it.
Dent: I told you. Thats the beauty of that detonator. Once it has been triggred because the circuts arn't hardwired they keep rerouting themselves every few seconds.
Ethaniel: So the combination that diffuses it now may not work in a few seconds.
Dent: Exacty.
Dent: Well figure fast. I have to take that bomb back to Mr. banning.
Ethaniel: You dont really think I'm going to let you take it do you?
Dent: You dont really think you can stop me do you?
Dent: There is something wrong. You did something to me when you were in there.
Ethaniel: Now that I think of of I might have. I didn't think you would notice so soon.
Dent: What did you do?
Ethaniel: Nothing much...just restored a couple of factory settings. You might enjoy having a conscience Dent.
Dent: No...NO!
Dent: Not as as easy as it looks, is it?
Ethaniel: I don't even know where to start.
Dent: Wherever you start you better be careful. The bomb was build with Theran abilities in mind.
Ethaniel: What are you talking about?
Dent: If you try to communicate with the wrong part of the bomb, it will know there was an attempt and it will blow automatically.
Ethaniel: Banning thinks of everything, except that someone may use his bomb against him.
Dent: Don't speak that way about him. Banning will kill you for what you have did to me.
Ethaniel: He hasn't had any luck so far. And as for what I did to you, you havent even started to feel it yet, someone as dead on the inside as you are. Take a while beofore you even know what you are feeling. Another thing I gave you is freewill, the ability to decide what to think and do, even if Banning gives you an order.
Dent: I will think what Iv'e always thought. I will do what I have always done, Bannings will.
Ethaniel: Maybe.
Ethaniel: I'm in. I can see the structure. I'm going to try to isolate the detonator.
Dent: Be careful were you step, Ethaniel. The life you save might be mine.
Dent:[ using Bannings's voice] It is good to see that you have accepted your true nature, Ethaniel We both knew you would come around, didn't we. Yes, we are not like these others, these humans. No, Ethaniel, we are destined for eternity.
Ethaniel: You talk that way around Banning.
Dent: He is not amused by that sort of thing. I wasn't ethier until today.
Dent: [using Banning's voice] That will be all Mr. Dent. Oh, and dont forget to kill the butcher after you have raped and pillaged the village.
Ethaniel: I didnt know you were so talanted Dent.
Dent: I never forget a voice. [using Ethaniels voice] I didnt know you where so talented dent. I admire you. I wish I was just like you.
Ethaniel: Now, your getting on my nerves.
Ethaniel: I've located the detonator.
Dent: The mine field. On tippy toes now.
Ethaniel: It's as you say. The circut pads are shifting, its impossible to fix the pattern.
Dent: Even if you find the right pattern for a few seconds you have to diffuse it and break the connection before the code changes again, otherwise..
Ethaniel: I know, it goes off, we die, six blocks vaporised.
Dent: I'm glad your keeping that in mind.
Ethaniel: What if I shut off the timer?
Dent: No, after the device has been triggered stopping the countdown will activate one of two other trigger boards which keeps the countdown alive. Not only alive but more difficult to shutdown. Shut off each of those and they spawn two more, just like the hydra.
Ethaniel: Cut off one head and two more appear.
Dent: And you have exaclty ten minutes to get it right.
Ethaniel: One of my brothers hobbies was this wrolds culteral mythologies.
Dent: I'm touched.
Ethaniel: Who do you think put all of the mythology in your head? You know alot about it, dont you?
Dent: I know alot about everything.
Ethaniel: You still didn't anewser my question.
Dent: Nobody disputes that your brother was a smart guy but it was Mr. Banning that created me.
Ethaniel: As you say.
Dent: [sighs] Okay. Your brother.
Ethaniel: Yes.
Dent: What would he have wanted from someone like, me?
Ethaniel: If he created you?
Dent: Yes, if he created me? I know what Banning wants. His requests are simple and yet generally violent.
Ethaniel: My brother believeed it was his mission to scout this world for resources our people needed. things poinsonous to the inhabitants this world but vital to our survival. Things like carbon monoxide mercury ,arsenic. We planend to trade things from our world of no valure to us, oxygen, diamonds. We would also share technologies.
Dent: Where do I fit into all of this?
Ethaniel: Our bodies were not meant to last in this world. We needed someone who could live in either wolrd and adapt. Somone to facilitate the relationships.
Dent: He wanted an Ambassedor?
Ethaniel: I know his mission. It makes sense.
Dent: Your as crazy as he is.
Ethaniel: You better hope that im not crazy at all.
Sergent: Stay like that, sister. Dont even breathe funny.
Sergent: Your not with Banning, who are you? The government?
Laura: No, just someone who doesn't want to see alot of innocent people slaughtered because someone things they got a mission.
Sergent: Nobodies slaughtering anybody. You know where that bomb is going? right where it belongs, right back in Banning's lap.
Laura: That bomb will blow up an entire neighborhood.
Sergent: Where not hitting a neighborhood. Where taking out one of bannings factories. Do you have any idea what they make there?
Laura: No idea, probably something toxic.
Sergent: You got that right. The byproducts alone can turn this country into a wasteland.
Laura: Dont be sure thats not the main purpose.
Sergent: What do you know about it?
Laura: You wouldn't believe me if I told you. When you blow up this plant, you gonna make sure it is empty first?
Sergent: There are always casualties. We try to contain them. If I were you I would try to get your boyfriend or whoever he is out of that room before things get too ugly.
Laura: How much uglier can they get?
Sergent: If you are doing this just because you do not like to see any innocent people die, make sure you and your friend get out of this place.
Sergent: Stand down, coperal. That is an order.
Corperal: This isn't over.
MM: [to Laura] Lets go.
Dent: No, not that one!
Ethaniel: How do you know? How do you know it is the wrong one?
Dent: Intuition. Gut feeling.
Ethaniel: Smart ass and as quasi-humanoid as you are, Dent, you dont have no intuitin and you have no gut.
Dent: It's just language, a little metaphor. Do you know that word?
Ethaniel: Oh, I know metaphor. And I want trying to insult you. What your calling intuition is more than that. What your reacting to is concrete stimulis.
Dent: Hmm. You do know big words. Did you brother teach them to you?
Ethaniel: if it is the stimulus that makes you understand that the bomb m ay be hirdwired into your technology than your technology may be similar to...the detonator logic system.
Dent: heaven, it will go off.
Ethaniel: If we can syronize your brain with the bombs circutry than we may be able to force its firing circuts to remain stable long enough to shut it down.
Dent: Or we might make it blow instantly .
Ethaniel: I dont think we have any other choce.
Colonel: [walkie-talkie] This is the Cornel. Do you read me?
Ethaniel: I read you.
Colonel: I did what you asked. I got the girl.
Ethaniel: Where is she.
Colonel: Right here with me. She wants to see you so why don't you come on out.
Ethaniel: Let me talk to her.
Colonel: Maybe you didnt hear what I said. Your girl wants to see you, if you wan to see her alive you out here now.
Segent: But sir, I told the prisoner that we would not harm her if-
Colonel: Huh, this is a battle sitation, war. This is no time for those warm fuzzies, sergent. Do you read me friend?
Laura: Ethaniel, don't open the door!
Dent: You are crazy. That man is as stupid of a human as I've seen. he is going to kill her anyway. Take it from me, I would.
Ethaniel: I can't let them kill Laura!
Dent: Where all going to die anyway. There is a minute left on the timer.
Ethaniel: [walkie-talkie] Colonel, Im coimng out! Hold your fire!
Dent: What are you doing?
Ethaniel: Its now or never, come here fast! I need to sycronize you to the bomb. We need to find the firing circut and freeze it.
Dent: If you've broken my programming, my dedication to orders. What makes you think that I'm not going to blow this thing up right now!
Ethaniel: Look in inside it, Dent. You are different. You really want to end your existance now?
Dent: Just do it.
Colonel: Get in position.The second that door opens a dog hair charge with extreme prejudice.
Dent: Okay, I've got it. I cant hold it much longer, hurry. Faster!
Ethaniel: I'm almost there. Got it.
Dent: How much time?
Ethaniel: Ten seconds and counting. Cover the bomb!
Militia Men: [bomb explodes] Augghh! Ahhhhh!
Sergent: [to MM] Lets go.
Dent: The way I tried to kill you in there, was nothing personal. Just wanted you to know.
Ethaniel: I understand.
Dent: I want you to know too, for next time...
Laura: What happened in there?
Ethaniel: Not much. We got the detonator to blow and not the bomb.
Laura: Nothing personal.
Ethaniel: Maybe.
Laura: So, how are his inpersonations?
Ethaniel: Uncanny.
Laura: I mean, did he sound like the people he was imitating?
Ethaniel: Exactly.
Laura: Are you going to keep giving me one word anwsers?
Ethaniel: He's pretty damn good. When he did you it gave me the shivers.
Laura: How bout the real me?
Ethaniel: What about the real you?
Laura: Do I give you shivers?
Ethaniel: I believe you do.
Laura: Good awnser.
Newscaster: Demoltion experts report that the bomb was diffused when they arrived on the scene. The one megaton bomb was powerful enough to destroy several- [Banning stops Dent]
Banning: What did you do in that chamber?
Dent: Oh, Not much. Just worked on the detonator after Ethaniel set it off. He was jabbering away about his brother mostly.
Banning: What did he say?
Dent: Drivel, the way he was talking, it was like Thorber was responsible for evey scientific innovation back here and in your world.
Banning: Did he mention any specific inventions? Anything of intrest to you?
Dent: No. Nothing. I wasn't paying too much attention. I had a detonator to fix.
Banning: You are a remakable creature Mr. Dent.
Dent: Thankyou.
Banning: I am not sure how I would get along without you.
Dent: I'm not going anywhere.
Banning: No, of course not.
