Best Quote Award - Episode Five

[Jason Conway]

Voting takes place here for the Best Overall Thread Award for Episode Four.

2 votes per account but please try not to vote-spam your own characters (remember, admins can see who votes).

This award is quite unique. In order to vote, simply copy post your two favorite quotes of the episode as a reply to this and it will be added to the poll, at the end of voting I will count up the answers manually by trawling through the thread.. I'll shortly add my two votes to get us started as examples, and you can always vote on other people's nominations (agree with them) too!

Just as a reminder, the winner last episode was Ahrima with her awkward chair moment.
"As she reached the briefing room, Ahirima paused to look at the table. She followed the lead of her fellow members of SM-1, and approached the table. She pulled out a seat and slowly sat in it. As she reclined against the back of the chair a bit, she felt it give. Yet, as she leaned forward for fear of breaking it, the back of the chair followed. She found herself leaning back and forward a bit as she tested the sturdiness of the chair. That phenomenon along with the cushion made her feel anything but comfortable."

My two votes are going toward the following quotes... 

Dr. Glavish confronts Dorane in the caverns below Meropis, this is such a science/nerd quote that I feel it deserves a vote... 

"Tell us how to reverse it, or I'll give you a crash course in Terran firearms... specifically how they relate to force and resistance: The force of a bullet's momentum... and the resistance your skull will provide."
- Mikeare Glavish to Dorane.

And this one because it is quite a powerful one I feel that will also have implications on the whole season one story arc. Well done Justin.
"I'm sorry about what they did to you, but it wasn't anyone's fault but the enemy's. You HAVE to remember that, or you're already too far gone."
- John Callaghan reasoning with Andrew McManus

[Fiona Maccafferty]

Kelly, at the end of the mission, on transmission to Earth.

She was a Marine, and "walking it off" was the Corps' response to everything. You eject over a field of landmines and blow your arm off? Change your socks and walk it off. Your hop crashes into the Big Drink and you gotta get a rescue from Big Ugly? Put a bandaid on it and walk it off. You die from a gunshot wound to the chest? That's right-you walk it off and get your sorry six back out there.

AND

Ahrima, after Maggie's statement that Chicago needs the stick removed from her backend.

I see no stick. Are you certain of the Major's injury?"

My two votes.

First:

Glavish's threat to Dorane, I honestly felt it though even a tad more mean, darker and I'll use the buzz word, 'Edgy' it honestly felt like it would fit in quite well, even though it was surrounded by the spat between Glavish and Fiona, it kind of felt like one of those switches that happen in the series'.

"Tell us how to reverse it, or I'll give you a crash course in Terran firearms... specifically how they relate to force and resistance: The force of a bullet's momentum... and the resistance your skull will provide."

Second:

Fiona threaten GLavish mostly for the hoor part, laughing is a good motivator for votes.

"Listen 'ere, you cute hoor. If your're just going to stand around useless as tits on a bull, then go with Hopper. If have something useful, however, than out with it. I am getting the light on, and you shall wait, or I shall feed YOU to the creatures FIRST."

[Ahrima]

Nomination #1:

"If you want to send Team Two after him, I suggest you find a new CO for this team. Because I am not going to hunt my friend."

Seeing those words sent chills down my spine. I know that we see characters forced to face tough issues, but to have those words uttered given what they'd all just gone through seems to scream the potential for future conflict. A conflict that could have severe repercussions in the future. I could be reading more into it than necessary, but the sheer potential just has me on edge and curious.

Nomination #2:

"Listen 'ere, you cute hoor. If your're just going to stand around useless as tits on a bull, then go with Hopper. If have something useful, however, than out with it. I am getting the light on, and you shall wait, or I shall feed YOU to the creatures FIRST."

There is clearly a hate-hate relationship going on between Fiona and Glavish. And the fact that he doesn't know what the hell she said between her accent and his ego makes the exchange that much more comical. I can't help but look forward to such future exchanges, but perhaps even a tempering of egos... well, perhaps not so much the latter.

Best Quote of the Episode Award (Episode Five)
Technically this one was a draw between Mikaere Glavish and Fiona Maccafferty for quotes during the best overall thread for Episode Five. As Maccafferty had won character of the episode, staff decision was made to break the tie and award this to Glavish for the following quote. Congratulations for the award and $1000 in game money.
Dr. Glavish confronts Dorane in the caverns below Meropis, "Tell us how to reverse it, or I'll give you a crash course in Terran firearms... specifically how they relate to force and resistance: The force of a bullet's momentum... and the resistance your skull will provide." - Mikeare Glavish to Dorane.
