Quotes:

Simon Garden: [Trying to bribe the gunmen on the roof] 'OK, look. Er, in my wallet I've got forty pounds, that's twenty each!' [Sounding to be a great deal and holds the money up enticingly] 'I've also got a cashcard here; the daily limit is two hundred, of which I've withdrawn forty, you've got that.' [Like a gameshow host: 'you're prizes are safe'] 'Now, the pin number; it's the Battle of Hastings... '

Simon Garden: I saw a man strangle a human being - well, an accountant anyway.

Simon Garden: I've got to go back.::George: Never go back.::Simon Garden: I left the tape.::George: In that case, go back.

[after seeing Emma in the mirror naked]::Simon Garden: You've got a lovely little pu... cat

[mis-reading the message painted on the back of the getaway van]::Jeff: It's get Kirsty in?

Tribunal Chairman: We talked to your clients, Mr Garden.::Simon Garden: Yeah, they're good people. I used to say to them: "You're half-way up a mountain. Crime is the easy path to the bottom. Responsibility is the hard path to the top. But when you get there it's a great view. Because in every sinner, there's a..."::Stern Woman: [interrupting, impatiently] Thank you Mr Garden.

[in the police interview room]::Simon Garden: [smugly] You can't intimidate me.::Inspector Burton: Let me give it a shot. If you open your mouth, I won't lay a finger on you. But you'll go to prison. And when those nonces and those perverts get hold of a clever boy like you - and I'll make sure they do - they'll be queueing up round the block. You're going to end up with an arsehole like a clown's pocket.::Simon Garden: [gulps] That was pretty good.

[at Victor's grave]::Sarah, Victor's Wife: After he worked with you he tried to give up his life of crime. He channelled his interests into amateur dramatics. One night he sneaked off to do the safe at Jackson's - you know, the food-processing plant? Two days later, one of the machines was playing up. They reckon he must have fallen into the mincer.::All: Ugh!::Sarah, Victor's Wife: By that stage the order's already gone out. They tried to recall them, but all they got back was half-a-dozen pies and a couple of pasties.::Simon Garden: And is that what's... [points at the grave]::Sarah, Victor's Wife: Yes.::Simon Garden: What a waste.

[demonstrating a remote-controlled toy fire-engine with a camera on the ladder]::Kirsty: What is it?::George: It's a GOTLER.::Kirsty: A what?::Colin: A George-operated time-lock equalising robot.

Colin: What we don't need is a curly headed wanker trying to be Captain Kirk.::Simon Garden: At least he got things done. Imagine you looking for Spock in Star Trek 4: "Oh, sorry, we couldn't find him".::Colin: [laughs] That was Star Trek 3. It was called "The Search for Spock"!

Quotes:

Davidge: "If one receives evil from another, let one not do evil in return. Rather, let him extend love to the enemy, that love might unite them." I've heard all this before... in the human Taalmaan.::Jerry: Of course you have. Truth is truth.

Davidge: Where would you be without me, huh?::Jerry: Back home.

Jerry: It is not longer my life that matters. I am not fat, I am not lazy. Davidge... I await a new life.::Davidge: A new life? From where?::[Jerry uncovers his abdomen]::Davidge: Oh, my God... Oh, my God, are you telling me you're pregnant?

[opening narration]::Davidge: By late in the 21st century, the nations of the Earth were finally at peace, working together to explore and colonize the distant reaches of space. Unfortunately, we weren't alone out there. A race of non-human aliens called the Dracs were claiming squatters' rights to some of the richest star systems in the galaxy. Well, they weren't going to get it [sic] without a fight. Space was the new battleground. For many of us, Earth became a precious memory, light-years away. Our only home was a fortress in space. As in any war, there were long periods with nothing to do but wait. And then...

Davidge: You know something, Jerry? Your great Shismar ain't shit!::Jerry: [angry] Earthman, your Mickey Mouse is one big stupid dope!::[Davidge tries not to laugh]

Davidge: [after Jerry saved Davidge from sand monster] You saved my life. Why?::Jerry: Maybe I need to look at another face... even one as ugly as yours.::Davidge: So you still think humans are ugly?::Jerry: Compared to a Drac? VERY ugly. But that thing out there... is even more ugly than you.::Davidge: [sarcastic] Thank you.::Jerry: [grinning] You... are... welcome.

[last lines]::Narrator: And so, Davidge brought the Dracs home. He fulfilled his vow, and brought Zammis before the Holy Council on Dracon. And, in the fullness of time, Zammis brought its own child before the Holy Council, the name of Willis Davidge was added to the line of Jereeba.

Zammis: Zammis get four five?

Jerry: Daaahweeech. There is no... shppoooooooon...

Jerry: [after Davidge shows him his makeshift shelter] Shit::Davidge: Shit? What do you mean its shit?::Jerry: Not Solid::Davidge: Of course its solid... let me show you::[Kicks the inside of the shelter entrance and the whole thing collapses]
