"Waste not, want not."


Galen in "The Path of Sorrows."

Galen in "The Path of Sorrows."

As well as the interrogator to Sheridan in "Intersections in Fake Time."

[Redrake]

"Some days they scare the hell out of me."

[Towelmaster]

Garibaldi, "A race through dark places".

"It's a mockery."

[jcbatz]

Sounds like Neroon in Legacies

[Towelmaster]

Nope, wrong character, wrong episode. Sorry. It's much funnier than Neroon by the way...

[FuryPilot]

"It's a mockery."


Hehehehe... Londo and Sheridan, There All the Honor Lies

Something about a doll just sold on Ebay that has no "attributes." :)

FP

[Towelmaster]

Yup. I love that one.

"Do I haf too spel iet out for you?" :p

[Jan]

My goodness, one would think that we'd run out of B5 quotes in a mere 1,284 posts and 84 pages. Surely not! How about:

"Do what you think is right. I'll back your play."

Jan

[Laiden]

:confused: That quote doesn't even sound correct . . .

[Jan]

:confused: That quote doesn't even sound correct . . .

I promise I took it directly from the script. Scout's honor!

Ahhhh, an easy one. Sinclair to Ivanova in "Legacies", regarding Alisa Beldon.

[Jan]

Ahhhh, an easy one. Sinclair to Ivanova in "Legacies", regarding Alisa Beldon.


Bingo!

Okay, how about this?

"The Centauri have an ego as big as the galactic core, but they're not stupid."

Jan

[Towelmaster]

G'Kar to Na'Toth?

[Jan]

G'Kar to Na'Toth?

No, neither one, sorry.

Jan

[Radhil]

Ivanova, regarding a little warship, The Fall of Night?

[Jan]

Ivanova, regarding a little warship, The Fall of Night?

'Fraid not.

Jan

[Laiden]

Give me this much credit . . . I know its Sheridan Right??

GAAAAHHHHHH I NEED MORE TIME TO WATCH MY SEASONS!!! I HAVE 6 EPISODES LEFT IN SEASON 1 . . . GRRRRRRRRRR Give me time . . . :p

[Andrew_Swallow]

Bingo!

Okay, how about this?

"The Centauri have an ego as big as the galactic core, but they're not stupid."

Jan

This is Season 5. Sheridan is talking to Garibaldi. I think it is "And All My Dreams, Torn Asunder".

[Jan]

I know its Sheridan Right??
Yep.
This is Season 5. Sheridan is talking to Garibaldi. I think it is "And All My Dreams, Torn Asunder".
You've got it, Andrew! Congratulations.

Okay....let's see....okay, this shouldn't be too obscure...maybe :p

"Mister, you have got one hell of a lot of explaining to do."

Jan

[Laiden]

It's Lochley saying it. . . I know that much . . . I hope :confused:

[Joansie]

Sounds like Lochley to Garibaldi. I know I know "But what episode" It sound. Maybe the ep where Bester shows up in S5.

[Shadow-Sentient]

Just throwin' in my two cents ...

"Well thank you, Mr. Garibaldi: One of the leading minds of the fourteenth century."

[Jan]

No, it's not Lochley. :p

Hmmm....sounds like Sheridan speaking, Shadow-Sentient?

Jan

[Laiden]

lemme guess . . . Sheridan to Mister Morden from "In the shadow of Za'ha'dum" either that or its from "Za'ha'dum" . . .

[Jan]

lemme guess . . . Sheridan to Mister Morden from "In the shadow of Za'ha'dum" either that or its from "Za'ha'dum" . . .

Nope. It was a female character speaking.

Jan

[Spoo Junky]

I think I just watched that episode. Is it (I can never remember titles) - the one about mind wiping - Gethsemane

[Towelmaster]

Just throwin' in my two cents ...

"Well thank you, Mr. Garibaldi: One of the leading minds of the fourteenth century."

Loved it. Marcus to Garibaldi. I think in Exogenesis but I'm not sure.

[Laiden]

Nope. It was a female character speaking.

Jan

Ok then, it was Anna Sheridan in "Za'ha'dum" RIGHT??? :eek:

[Jan]

Ok then, it was Anna Sheridan in "Za'ha'dum" RIGHT??? :eek:

Nope, sorry. :p

Jan

[Laiden]

ITS NUMBER ONE IN "LINES OF COMMUNICATION" PLEASE TELL ME THATS IT CUZ I KNOW SHERIDAN IVONOVA AND LOCHLEY HAS SAID THAT LINE BEFORE TOO :confused:

[Jan]

ITS NUMBER ONE IN "LINES OF COMMUNICATION" PLEASE TELL ME THATS IT CUZ I KNOW SHERIDAN IVONOVA AND LOCHLEY HAS SAID THAT LINE BEFORE TOO :confused:

It is Number One but it's to Franklin in 'The Face of the Enemy" when she discovered the teep 'cargo'.

Jan

[Laiden]

HA HA!!! HA HA HA HA HA!!!! JAN . . . you really make my B5 brain think . . . oh man . . . Thanks! I'll think of one eventually . . . it'll stump you all!!! :cool:

[Jan]

HA HA!!! HA HA HA HA HA!!!! JAN . . . you really make my B5 brain think . . . oh man . . . Thanks! I'll think of one eventually . . . it'll stump you all!!! :cool:

Looking forward to it, Laiden. Though, ask anybody...I'm stumped pretty often. That's part of the fun.

This one should be easy:

"Roughly one-hundred-and-fifty of your years ago, the Centauri came to our world. Narn was a green and fertile place then."

It's obvious who's speaking so be specific as to who's being spoken to in which episode. <g>

Jan

[Shadow-Sentient]

Loved it. Marcus to Garibaldi. I think in Exogenesis but I'm not sure.

You are correct sir!! :D

[David Panzer]

G'Kar to the reporter from ISN in "And Now for a Word"

[Laiden]

Willie is right. I cant remember if he was talking to the ISN Woman or not, but here is the full quote. I just watched that episode a few days ago :p

"Roughly 150 of your years ago, the Centauri came to our world. Narn was a green and fertile place then. We greeted them in peace and spent the next 100 years in chains, but we never gave up hope. We formed a resistance, learned their secrets, turned their own machines against them, and finally drove them from our world."

[Andrew_Swallow]

Willie is right. I cant remember if he was talking to the ISN Woman or not, but here is the full quote. I just watched that episode a few days ago :p

"Roughly 150 of your years ago, the Centauri came to our world. Narn was a green and fertile place then. We greeted them in peace and spent the next 100 years in chains, but we never gave up hope. We formed a resistance, learned their secrets, turned their own machines against them, and finally drove them from our world."

Pity the Arabs think that they are Narns. :eek: :mad:

[Jan]

Many B5 quotes might be used to refer to current events, Andrew. I think that commenting about them should be kept to the off-topic threads please? Feel free to start a thread along those lines if you like.

Jan

[Andrew_Swallow]

A single joke is not worth a thread.

[Laiden]

Well Noted Jan, and with that . . . I make an Obvious Quote, but I love it!

"Well, howdy do, sir. I'm looking for the lady of the house, assuming you're not the lady of the house."

[Jan]

Well Noted Jan, and with that . . . I make an Obvious Quote, but I love it!

"Well, howdy do, sir. I'm looking for the lady of the house, assuming you're not the lady of the house."

Garibaldi to Drazi in "The Geometry of Shadows". :D

A single joke is not worth a thread.

No, I know Andrew, but I did think it might make an interesting thread if you were interested.

Jan

[Laiden]

Garibaldi to Drazi in "The Geometry of Shadows". :D
Geez you are on top of things! . . . now you know how far I am on re-watching the series :p

another Great but obvious quote!

"I work for Ambassador Mollari. After a while nothing bothers you."

[Jan]

Vir to the Techno-Mage in the same episode. Love that one! And I've always loved how much more Vir was than just comic relief.

Jan

[Spoo Junky]

How about..

"That explains the Centauri"

[Jan]

How about..

"That explains the Centauri"

Umm...yeah...darn, I just saw this! Fifth season...the lead-in is something about making your hair stand up....you know...that one! :o :confused:

Jan

[Joansie]

My favorite comedic line in the whole series. 3rd Season, Delenn to Sheridan in "And the Rock Cried out No Hiding Place. Delenn says this after Sheridan says he has been having the kind of dreams that would make your hair stand on end.



How about "I'm telling you I can't take much more of this." Shouldn't be too difficult. :)

[Laiden]

Maybe we need to start a new thread that says "I'm thinking of a character between season 1, season 5 and beyond who said this . . ." We are starting to become so general in our quotes, I could find the same line said by two or more characters and from two or more different episodes :confused: I propose to try and find more memorable lines, but said from more than one person . . . just enough to stump a guess or two. For example:

"We walk in the dark places no others will enter. We stand on the bridge and no one may pass. We live for the One, we die for the One."

this isnt hard ;)

[Jan]

"We walk in the dark places no others will enter. We stand on the bridge and no one may pass. We live for the One, we die for the One."

this isnt hard ;)

Well, I know that Marcus said the entire thing in "Grey 17 is Missing" and many people said "We live for the One, we die for the One" but who else said the entire thing?

Jan

[Spoo Junky]

My favorite comedic line in the whole series. 3rd Season, Delenn to Sheridan in "And the Rock Cried out No Hiding Place. Delenn says this after Sheridan says he has been having the kind of dreams that would make your hair stand on end.


That's the one. I was watching it and took a moment to put it out there.

[Laiden]

Well, I know that Marcus said the entire thing in "Grey 17 is Missing" and many people said "We live for the One, we die for the One" but who else said the entire thing?

Jan

Actually . . . I cant remember if it was just one person . . . but its in the Legend of the Rangers opening title :D

[Joansie]

I guess because no one has answered my quote that means you need a hint. How about - Clothes do not make the man. I will also give another clue. S4.

Hope that helps. :D

[Laiden]

I'm going to guess ZACK ALLAN in "Atonement" which he also said "I mean no offense, but I have seen Vorlons with more fashion sense."

here is my quote I just passed by and found funny:

" . . . And then he said, 'That's not my leg! Thats my air hose!' "

[SpooRancher]

I am thinking of TWO instances where a character said "That Hurt!"

Extra points for getting them both (and more if you think of ones I didn't remember)

[David Panzer]

I know of one. Londo to G'Kar in No Surrender, No Retreat.

[Joansie]

Laiden you are right on the button about Zack to Lenier.

Laiden wasn't that a Rebo and Zooty joke in "Day of the Dead"?

[Laiden]

Nope! the only hint I'll give for now is that its season 2. The quote is all of it, I only put the dots in the beginning cuz its obviously a cut in on that joke. ;)

[FuryPilot]

" . . . And then he said, 'That's not my leg! Thats my air hose!' "

Sorry, been away for awhile.

Londo to everyone in the bar in "Soul Mates".

Here's another one: "You got an uplink, not a personal message?"

[Andrew_Swallow]

I am thinking of TWO instances where a character said "That Hurt!"

Extra points for getting them both (and more if you think of ones I didn't remember)

G'Kar said "That hurt" to Na'Toth in "The Parliament of Dreams". She had kicked away the pain givers.

[Laiden]

Sorry, been away for awhile.

Londo to everyone in the bar in "Soul Mates".

Here's another one: "You got an uplink, not a personal message?"

good job! Wecome Back Fury Pilot . . . and I think your quote was Garabaldi to Lou Welsh in "The Geometry of Shadows"

[SpooRancher]

I'll check on Willie's notation, I didn't remember that one.

Andrew was right on the mark with his.

Still one more I'm thinking of.

[FuryPilot]

. . . and I think your quote was Garabaldi to Lou Welsh in "The Geometry of Shadows"

You are correct, sir!

Anyone else have a quote?

FP

[Jan]

You are correct, sir!

Anyone else have a quote?

FP

:D To steal a phrase..."I gotta million of 'em!"

Here's a super-easy one:

"--they look like an octopus that got run over by a truck."

Jan

[FuryPilot]

:D To steal a phrase..."I gotta million of 'em!"


Why.... yes. Yes you do... ;)


"--they look like an octopus that got run over by a truck."


Garibaldi to Vir (and all those present at Sheridan's pre-death wake) in "Sleeping in Light"

FP

[Jan]

Excellent, FP!

Okay, here's one that I think is distictive but slightly less obvious:

"The great thing about war is that it advances technology. The bad thing about war is that most of those etchnologies are destructive, and once the war is over, those weapons are still around."

Jan

[Joansie]

Is that not Lyta to Garibaldi in "Objects in Motion"?

[FuryPilot]

Is that not Lyta to Garibaldi in "Objects in Motion"?

Almost, but no.

It was Franklin to the Alliance Command Staff in "The Fall of Centauri Prime"

FP

[FuryPilot]

Here's another quote for the group...

"I have to get out. But I have to be sure I save face."

You realize that at this rate we'll have to start using quotes from the DVD commentaries to have new material... :)

FP

[Jan]

Here's another quote for the group...

"I have to get out. But I have to be sure I save face."

Londo to G'Kar in "Movements of Fire and Shadow" :)

FP

Nah, we've barely touched on Crusade or the movies because some of the posters haven't seen them.

Can't wait for 'But in Purple...'!!

Jan

[Spoo Junky]

There are a lot of quotes out in the world that have come from movies, tv., etc. Do think there are any from B5 that might become part of pop culture? I know B5 isn't as widely known as other shows.

But then again, I can't think of a single one right now :o . Might just be too early in the a.m. for me :)

[Jan]

Wanna talk socks? :p :D ;)

Jan

[Spoo Junky]

Ok, stop confusing the poor, tired girl ;)

Just to keep things sort of on topic.. this isn't a quote, but which episode had the two ships run into each other as they were trying to dock? I have no idea myself, but I'm pretty sure it was in the first or second season. :confused:

Anyway, that's me today, the captain that wasn't all there. :D

[Laiden]

Wanna talk socks? :p :D ;)

Jan

I'm not having this discussion :( :D :p

In the first season was "By Any Means Necessary" where there was an equipment malfunction in the docking bay. In the fifth season the captain backed up and messed up a docking elevator in "Strange Relations"

No, I didn't know these without checking Lurker's Guide. :o

Remind me...one of these days...to get a life. ;)

Jan

[David Panzer]

There was a quote that I believe had become a quote used by several. In college, one of my friends would say "See you on the flip-side" instead of "Good-bye" or "see you later". I also began using it as well. It wasn't until I saw the Earth Civil War in the later part of Season 4, that I realized that it was from B5.

So in a roundabout way, a line from B5 was used by me even though I was unaware of the source, and no one told me where it came from. I still it's kinda neat.

Also was said by Max Eilerson to the people in the bar in "Ruling from the Tomb" in Crusade. Sorry it took me so long to post it.

Also, on my "That Hurt!", Garibaldi said it to Franklin in "Geometry of Shadows".

[Towelmaster]

We could turn the game around of course... Like; one starts the sentence and the rest tries to finish it...

How about "It does not even have any...any..."

[Jan]

"...Attributes!" (with certain descriptive gesture <g>)

Yeah, I was also thinking "Do I haf tu spell eet out forr u?" :p

Sorry, I'm at work and they already look at me funny a lot of the time. <g>

Right about Max, Wrong about Garabaldi.

F: "Does that hurt?"
G: *winces* "No, I can . . uh, can't feel a thing."
Franklin pokes him
G: "Ah Easy easy easy!"
F: "I don't Like it when my patients lie to me."

[Towelmaster]

Sorry, I'm at work and they already look at me funny a lot of the time. <g>

Jan

I know what you mean... <ducks>

[Jan]

Watch it! The Narn Bat Squad may need to pay you a visit! :p :D

Jan

[Towelmaster]

LoL.

How about "I'm sure Stephen has his hands full..."? :p

[jcbatz]

Sheridan in "Lines of Communication?" It is right before a cut to Marcus, playing with his pike and a sultry "Oh, Steven" from Number One.

Can't remember who Sheridan was talking to, though...


How about:
"Animal magnetism. I can't help it."

[Jan]

Sheridan in "Lines of Communication?" It is right before a cut to Marcus, playing with his pike and a sultry "Oh, Steven" from Number One.

Can't remember who Sheridan was talking to, though...

Sheridan was talking to Delenn. She'd just told him she needed to return to Minbar to rebuild the Grey Council which would allow Sheridan to be 'dangerous' without her around. As they go off to dinner she asks if he's heard from Marcus and Stephen.

Jan

[Towelmaster]

Yup. Aw, you're no fun anymore... :cool:

[Jan]

How about:
"Animal magnetism. I can't help it."

Definitely G'Kar speaking to Londo. I think it's from the first episode where G'Kar accompanied Londo to Centauri Prime so that would be Strange Relations I think.

Yup. Aw, you're no fun anymore...

But...but...I thought that was why y'all kept me around; to provide trivia like that. :D

Jan

[jcbatz]

Definitely G'Kar speaking to Londo. I think it's from the first episode where G'Kar accompanied Londo to Centauri Prime so that would be Strange Relations I think.
Jan

You are right, but the ep is A Tragedy of Telepaths.

[Towelmaster]

But...but...I thought that was why y'all kept me around; to provide trivia like that. :D

Jan

Yes, well of course. But next time I'm going to put up a quote here like "Where". That should be enough for you to guess the episode... :p :p ;)

[Joansie]

I think it is time to have another quote. How about,

"It's important you meet me in brown 3.....alone."

[FuryPilot]

I think it is time to have another quote. How about,

"It's important you meet me in brown 3.....alone."

Byron to Lochley in "No Compromises".

How about this one:

"I wouldn't wish to be an inconvenience."

[Jan]

How about this one:

"I wouldn't wish to be an inconvenience."

Sounds like G'Kar to Ivanova in 'Ship of Tears'.

Jan

[FuryPilot]

Sounds like G'Kar to Ivanova in 'Ship of Tears'.

Jan

Nope. Or at least not what I'm thinking of.

FP

[bulletproofmonk]

"I wouldn't wish to be an inconvenience."

It sounds like Draal to Sheridan (after he gets out of the shower) at the beginning of "The Long, Twilight Struggle".

[FuryPilot]

It sounds like Draal to Sheridan (after he gets out of the shower) at the beginning of "The Long, Twilight Struggle".

DINGDINGDINGDING!!!!!

You are correct sir!

[Towelmaster]

One word : "languageskills"... Anyone?

[Jan]

The only time I remember was when Londo was trying to kill the bug in 'Sic Transit Vir'. But that was two words.

Jan

[Laiden]

I've got one word for you "why" :D

its actually a memorable "why" lol

[Towelmaster]

That may have well been JMS when he heard Crusade was cancelled... ;)

[Laiden]

THAT WAS ME I KNOW THAT MUCH! :D but "why" was also signifigant in one episode . . . lol

[Jan]

I've got one word for you "why" :D

its actually a memorable "why" lol

I think it's time for a clue?

Jan

[bulletproofmonk]

THAT WAS ME I KNOW THAT MUCH! :D but "why" was also signifigant in one episode . . . lol

Well, it WAS significant in "Day of the Dead" (Zooty's only spoken word).

[Towelmaster]

"Why a duck"? :D

[David Panzer]

It's deep water, that's why a duck.

[Jan]

"Why a duck"? :D

You mean Sinclair's duck? I think that's a quote from Lurker's not the show. :eek:

Jan

[Towelmaster]

You mean Sinclair's duck? I think that's a quote from Lurker's not the show. :eek:

Jan

Erm...it's Marx Brothers Jan(Viaduct). ;)

[Laiden]

Well, it WAS significant in "Day of the Dead" (Zooty's only spoken word).

AHHHH You got it right Bulletproofmonk! but what was the answer to "why"?? :p

I would also like to make note of my NEW signature! lol I love it!

[DGTWoodward]

I've got one word for you "why" :D

its actually a memorable "why" lol

I know it has already been guessed but you could change your mind and agree that it was Refa to Londo just after drinkg one half of his 2 part poison, somewhere in the third season????

[Joansie]

"Because It Tell's Me To"? At least that's what Zooty says to Sheridan.

[Laiden]

"Because It Tell's Me To"? At least that's what Zooty says to Sheridan.

Correct babylon1122!! and no . . . Lightstorm I wont change my mind and agree that it was Refa to Londo just after drinkg one half of his 2 part poison. for that I would have quoted "And because, sooner or later you would do it to me." :p

[Jan]

"It's a good thing I'm Russian. We're used to hopeless situations."

[Shadows the first ones]

i know that line lol but as i sayd usless with rimembering the neames of episodeds but prity sure its season 3. or the episode with that drazy conflict not to sure thou.

[Laiden]

It is . . . da da da dum!!

Ivanova to Sinclair in "A Voice in the Wilderness Part 2"

[Towelmaster]

How about "I'm sorry" ? ;)

[Kloreep]

How about "I'm sorry" ? ;)

Heh. I believe the most signifigant use would be "The Very Long Night of Londo Mollari". Is that the one you were thinking of? :)

[Jan]

How about "I'm sorry" ? ;)

Well, I'm sure there are others but the most important one would be Londo to G'Kar in "The Very Long Night of Londo Mollari".

And yes, Laiden, you had it right!

Jan

[Shadows the first ones]

meh not good at this kinda stuff lol

[Jan]

meh not good at this kinda stuff lol

That's okay, Shadows. You rememember the plots well. Anyway, it's all just for fun.

[David Panzer]

Another "I'm sorry" is Vir to G'Kar in "Comes the Inquisitor"

[David Panzer]

"Put your face in the book..."

G'Kar to one of his Narn followers in "The Ragged Edge"

[Laiden]

:D I just like the "SMACK" sound after the discussion . . .

[Towelmaster]

"There is lesson # 1"... Hehehehe...

[Shadows the first ones]

Nope, that was Ta'lon's response to the book slam in Ragged Edge.

Jan

[Shadows the first ones]

"The avalanche has already started. It is too late for the pebbles to vote."

[David Panzer]

Kosh to the parents of the dying child in "Believers"

[DGTWoodward]

How about "I'm sorry" ? ;)
How about Londo's very long nigt?

[DGTWoodward]

Correct babylon1122!! and no . . . Lightstorm I wont change my mind and agree that it was Refa to Londo just after drinkg one half of his 2 part poison. for that I would have quoted "And because, sooner or later you would do it to me." :p


SPOILSPORT!!! ;)

[Shadows the first ones]

"We all do what we do for the same reason

Dang! Just saw that one recently.
In the meantime how about:
"Gesundheit!" :D

[Laiden]

Let's try this one "Beyond a shadow of doubt"

Londo to Mr. Morden in "Revelations"

Dang! Just saw that one recently.
In the meantime how about:
"Gesundheit!" :D

Sheridan to Ivanova in "A Race Through Dark Places" Knock knock Kosh Joke :p

[Joansie]

Laiden you were almost dead on. It was Mr. Morden to Londo. Righ episode

[Laiden]

I know . . I goofed! lol!! I knew it was morden TO Londo . . . Just typing too fast.

[I love Lyta]

Sheridan to Ivanova in "A Race Through Dark Places" Knock knock Kosh Joke :p

Correct. But I just realized that there is another occurrance of that line.
In "Knives" when Garibaldi makes Franklin speak out the name of the dead Markab Sheridan found in Grey 10. :cool:

Btw, did anyone ever wonder why whenever someone speaks Garibaldi's name the stress is on baldi? :D

[Laiden]

Correct. But I just realized that there is another occurrance of that line.

I knew there was another instance of that quote . . . I just couldnt remember when!

and yes, I noticed from the start that most emphasized on the "BALD" part LOL then the 'I' at the end almost comes off as "eh . . ."

New Quote . . . uhmmmmm . . . OOOH!!! might be easy . . .
"Oh, then there is this view of course. Granted it's not quite the same as if you are outside. . ."

Hey! You're supposed to give clues if nobody can guess, y'know. ;)

In honor of the news about the script books, I thought I'd revive this thread. How about:

"Being somthing of a sentimentalist I got here first."

Jan

[jcbatz]

I think that is Londo to Refa, but I can't remember the episode. The one where Refa gets the first installment of poison.

Ceremonies of Light and Dark?

[Jan]

Interludes and Examinations. How about:

"Though cruel and capricious, bringing us into a world that fears us and hates us...nature did not leave us entirely without protection."

Jan

[Spoo Junky]

Bester to Garibaldi just before he unzips the programming in his head.

[Laiden]

I'm not giving hints . . . I'll just extend my Quote :D

"After that maybe I'll try pacing fro and to just for the kick of it. Oh, then there is this view of course. Granted it's not quite the same as if you are outside .."

hope that helps . . . I can extend it more if no one gets it LOL

Well, I know that Galen did some talking about pacing to and fro in The Memory of War but I don't think this is that one?

Jan

[Laiden]

Nope! this is Season 1. . . thats the best hint you'll have! :D

[Jan]

Ah! Ivanova to Sinclair in Believers!

Whew. I was about to lose faith in myself.

So is anybody going to guess on my 'cruel and capricious' quote?

Jan

[Laiden]

You and your Season 5 quotes :p

Byron in "A View from the Gallery"

[Jan]

I swear, I just pick a script at random and page through looking for something reasonably or at least semi-memorable.

Jan

[FuryPilot]

Ah! Ivanova to Sinclair in Believers!

And I was about to answer that one... Ah, well -- here's one:

"The enemy is the one who tells you that you must hate that which is different. Because, in the end, that hate will turn on you. And that same hate will destroy you."

[jcbatz]

That sounds like 5th season G'Kar. Is it from The Ragged Edge?

[FuryPilot]

That sounds like 5th season G'Kar. Is it from The Ragged Edge?

Nope. Incorrect character and season.

Hint: It was a one-appearance character.

Vir to Londo. I think in Knives? The memory is a bit hazy atm... *hic* :)

[jcbatz]

That has to be Cartagia in Falling Towards Apotheosis...

[Laiden]

And the Rock Cried Out, No Hiding Place. said by the Precher don't remember if he had a name

Rev. Dexter

Ivanova I think, can't remember the episode though

Jan got it right first. it was Ivanova to Sinclair in "believers"

That has to be Cartagia in Falling Towards Apotheosis...

Towel Master's 'hazy' memory comes in correct . . . it was Vir and Londo in "knives"

[Night Marshal]

Vir to Londo. I think in Knives? The memory is a bit hazy atm... *hic* :)

Right its Knives

[Towelmaster]

:) excellent!

Who came up with your sig btw?

[FuryPilot]

And the Rock Cried Out, No Hiding Place. said by the Precher don't remember if he had a name

Correct. Reverend Dexter if I remember rightly...

Vir to Londo in "Knives" I love that line.

Q: "Nothing changes. Corruption, immorality, chaos."

Towelmaster

While I don't know who first said it, I first heard Art Bel say it on Coast to Coast Am (http://www.coasttocoastam.com/art/about.html), but he said up front that he wasn't sure where it came from either. So I keep it. If I ever find out who’s it is I will give them the proper credit. It is really cool and its seems very contrary to most of the things we hear in our day to day lives. To say nothing of the fact that is sound like a heck of alot of fun to life with Champagne in one hand - strawberries in the other screaming WOW - What a RIDE!

[Jan]

Q: "Nothing changes. Corruption, immorality, chaos."

Towelmaster


Sebastian to Sheridan in 'Comes the Inquisitor'. I just watched that one the other day. :) Funny, that episode escaped me for the longest time. I missed it completely on the first run, encore showing and even the first run of re-runs. I could tell from the comments online that I was missing something special but every time something would happen that I didn't see it. Much the same happened with 'Atonement', too.

Jan

[Joansie]

Night Marshall, I believe your signature comes from Mya Angelo (sp).

[Towelmaster]

Night Marshall; O.k. thanks.

I asked because it is something that comes close to something the great Mayor Amalfi said(in other words) in 'Cities in flight' by the late great James Blish.

A small group of people can survive Ginnungagap(sp?) a.k.a. the end of this cycle of the universe, but just for a few seconds. In those few seconds they can influence the next cycle. All of them plan very carefully so that the conditions of the new universe are created along the same lines as the one we now live in. All except for Amalfi, because he decides for himself that 'he has already used this universe until the screws fell out'. It is one of the best endings I have ever read in my life. It is an example of the 'Sense of Wonder' that so many sf-writers had in the 50-ies. And those who have read Blish and liked him, know that every now and then the man could really move you, which was rather special in SF in those days... For me he was the american Eric Frank Russell.

Ah, Russell, Blish, Van Vogt... Heroes, all of them... *sigh*

Anyway : I always used it in my personal philosophy: What good is it to die completely healthy? Isn't that a waste of material? The screws should fall out, but they should fall out at the right time. And there lies our challenge.

But enough of this philosophical chit-chat. :cool:

[Night Marshal]

Night Marshall; O.k. thanks.

Cool I have been wondering about the quote for almost three years, so thank you very much for shreding some light on it. And now i have to hunt now anther book "Cities in Flight"


Sebastian to Sheridan in 'Comes the Inquisitor'

right
I really like that ep too. Its one of those eps that when you watch it for the first time you lose all sense of time and get lost in it. Great show

[Towelmaster]

Well, as I read on amazon the price starts at 0,99 c for a second hand one... ;)

I love the quote from one of the editorials : "The novel ends, literally, with a bang."

One word, what's the complete quote etcetera. I'll keep it very simple...

Marcus and Ivanova in "Shadow Dancing" . . . although I must say that if you are going to make that one word . . . consider a hyphen - :p when I said it my friend thought I was sneezing

[Jan]

One word, what's the complete quote etcetera. I'll keep it very simple...

"languageskills" :)

Two words as I recall. Londo to Vir and Lyndisty in Sic Transit Vir. (Approximately) "If you see an insect about (gestures) this big, let me know. I must kill it before it develops language skills."

How about:

Yay! I finally got one,
It's Dr Franklin to Marcus, For the life of me I can't remember the name of the episode but it's the one which ends with Marcus singing the tune from Gilbert and sullivan "I am the very model of a modern major-general" when they are sitting on transport to Mars to meet the underground.
Y'know what, I'm gonna look up teh lurkers guide and come back with episode title too.

Okay...let's see...

"I forgot that in the Drazi language there's no equivalent word for discretion."

Jan
I'm stabbing (no pun intended) wildly here but y'know, not hedging my bets at all. It's Ivanova to Garibaldi in the episode with two fighting colours (european spelling) of Drazi after Garibaldi "rescues" her from the opposing team.
Phaze
on the "I can never remember episode names but I'll let somone else try" ID

[Jan]

It's Ivanova to Garibaldi in the episode with two fighting colours (european spelling) of Drazi after Garibaldi "rescues" her from the opposing team.


No, sorry.

Jan

[jcbatz]

"I forgot that in the Drazi language there's no equivalent word for discretion."

Jan

I think it is Eilerson to the thug harassing his ex-wife on B5 in "Rules of the Game."

Something to the effect of the Drazi to use their discretion when beating the guy up?

[Jan]

That's it, jcbatz. Eilerson told the thug that when the Drazi asked Eilreson how much to rough the guy up, Eilerson told him to use his own discretion.

BTW, for those anticipating the script books and hopefully Crusade scripts down the line, I found a cute cut scene between Gideon and Lochley while looking for the quote this morning.

Jan

[Laiden]

My BABYLON 5 IN 30 DAYS Marathon has led me to this point as of yesterday:

"There's always the threat of an attack by say, a giant space dragon, the kind that eats the sun every thirty days. It's a nuisance, but what would you expect from reptiles. Did I mention that my nose was on fire? That I have fifteen wild badgers living in my trousers? I'm sorry, would you prefer ferrets?"

"Messages from Earth"?

You Got the episode right Jan! *performs Happy dance* :D . . . Wouldn't ya know that the end of disc 2 leaves you with "President Clark has signed a decree today, declairing martial law . . ."

Next question:
Woohoo?!?

[Joansie]

Lenier to Sheridan in the elevator in "Racing Mars".

[Towelmaster]

How about "gesundheit!" ?

[Laiden]

well since we already mentioned "A Race through Dark Places" with the kosh joke, and there is also "Knives" where garabaldi couldn't pronounce the name of the dead alien and when franklin did, Garabaldi said, "gesundheit!"

Of all the good lines in Babylon 5 .. Here's one I "crenged" on when I first heard it. May not be exact, but essentially:

"Do you know what it's like to make love to a telepath?"

[Jan]

Talia to Sinclair in Mind War.

Do you know what it's like when telepaths make love, Commander? You drop every defense, and it's all mirrors, reflecting each other's feelings, deeper and deeper, until somewhere along the line, your souls mix, and you touch something so profound that it makes you hurt. It's the only moment in a telepath's life when you no longer hear the voices.

I dunno, I think it's pretty. (No, I had to look it up, I didn't have it memorized!) ;)

Jan

[Nacho]

You're just too good!

This isn't a line .. but maybe yall can help me with it.

When Talia Winters and Ivanova "shared quarters" that time. I swear on the original telecast that either they kissed, or they were about to kiss and the episode cut away to another scene.

And after I finally recorded the episodes when they were on TNT, I've never been able to find that scene again. Was I just imagining that? or was it something that was later cut out?

[Jan]

When Talia Winters and Ivanova "shared quarters" that time. I swear on the original telecast that either they kissed, or they were about to kiss and the episode cut away to another scene.

No, they never kissed onscreen, though it was clear that they shared the bed.

Let's see...There's this, when Talia arrives at Susan's quarters. They're having tea and Ivanova asks Talia about Lyta:

IVANOVA
...Damn it, Talia sometimes I just don't know who to trust anymore.

Talia approaches her, a sad smile on her face.

TALIA
Funny. I've felt the same way lately. So I've come to the decision that there's only one person on this entire station I can trust implicitly. You.

Ivanova truns to her, and her face softens, touched by the admission.

The scene after that is when Talia wakes up and reaches out, noticing that Susan's gone.

Later, when Talia goes to pick up her things, they're talking, Susan has her back to Talia:

IVANOVA
...how can you ever look them in the eyes again?

Talia goes to her, stopping inches from her, behind her.

TALIA
I wish I had an answer, Susan, but I don't. All I know is that you're surrounded by people who care about you. There's nothing you can say that would be so terrible that they would turn away.

IVANOVA
Yeah, well, this one's a doozy.

TALIA
Maybe. For what it's worth, Susan, I'm here for you. If you need me.

Ivanova doesn't reply. Talia waits a BEAT, then exits, leaving Evanova with her thoughts.

That's all I can find where a kiss might have occurred. The logical place would have been when Talia says she can only trust Susan but there's nothing in the script that spells it out.

[Jan]

Here's one I don't remember us using before:

"Besides...everyone knows that the true source of pain is not the hand, or the heart...it is the mouth."

Jan

[Nacho]

Thanks Jan!

It must have just been me, reading more into what happened than what did happen when I saw the episode the first time, and then expecting to see that the next time(s) I watched it.

Heh, I must be a victum of "False Acquired Memories". :o)

[Laiden]

Here's one I don't remember us using before:

"Besides...everyone knows that the true source of pain is not the hand, or the heart...it is the mouth."

Jan
that would be G'Kar to Minister Vole in "In the Kingdom of the Blind"

[Jan]

Right, Laiden!

How about:

"Besides, if things get hot, you don't want to close off your only escape route out of here."

Jan

[Laiden]

taking a crack at it . . . but either "Ceremonies of Light and Dark" or "Grey 17 is missing" . . . I could be far off though :p

[Jan]

No, sorry.

Clue: Fifth season

Jan

[Satai Delenn]

Maybe No Compromises ???

[Jan]

No, sorry! :)

Jan

[Satai Delenn]

I really need to watch a little more of B5 again and maybe I could guess the right answer instead watching too much of Ds9. :)

You've got it, FP!
Jan

Y'know, I was just thinking we have our own B5 quote book going on right here. I'm still hopeful that the "real" one comes out at some point.

In the meantime, here's another one for the group:

"Because then I wouldn't have been able to see this. Kind of makes the job worth doing."

Fury Pilot

[Nacho]

This one should be tough .. not much here, and is real obscure ...

Londo to G'Kar ("flittering" hands and laughing): Yoo Hoo!

[Jan]

Hmmm..."A Tragedy of Telepaths" when Londo and G'Kar free Na'Toth from the dungeon?

Jan

[Nacho]

Jan,

Hmmm..."A Tragedy of Telepaths" when Londo and G'Kar free Na'Toth from the dungeon?

I guess it's possible he said, and acted like that ("flittering" hands/laughing) to G'Kar in more than one episode, but that's not the one I'm thinking of.

[Reel 2 Reel]

It sounds like something he would say to get Michaels' attention...but as for when...not quite shure...

Yoo-Hoo!!!!...Mister Garabaldi!!!.......Ahhhhhh!...My good friend...Mister Garabaldi!........borrow me some money!!!.... :D

[bulletproofmonk]

This one should be tough .. not much here, and is real obscure ...

Londo to G'Kar ("flittering" hands and laughing): Yoo Hoo!

*hee hee hee*

First season (definitely NOT my favourite episode): regarding the G'Quan-eth plant--"By Any Means Necessary".

[Nacho]

bulletproofmonk,

Yep .. good one. Londo "played" G'Kar all episode over the G'Quan Eth plant, and that was the start of it.

[FuryPilot]

In the meantime, here's another one for the group:

"Because then I wouldn't have been able to see this. Kind of makes the job worth doing."


No takers on this one?

[Jan]

I must have missed that one. Garibaldi to the client whose daughter Garibaldi found in "Conflicts of Interest".

:)

Jan

[FuryPilot]

Garibaldi to the client whose daughter Garibaldi found in "Conflicts of Interest".

The client was credited as "Ben" as I recall.

Ok, Jan. Your turn.

Ok, Jan. Your turn.


Have I managed to bore all of you with the fact that I've just finished putting all of my scripts into blue (for the Station) 3-ring binders with spiffy white lettered labels on the spines? The collection now takes up all but about a foot of a 5-shelf bookcase and it looks wonderful!

Okay, end of brag... ;) This one should be easy:

"I didn't know that similarity was required for the exercise of compassion."

Jan

[Joansie]

"Confessions and Lamentations" Delenn to Sheridan in his quarters.

[Jan]

That's it, Joan!

Okay, let's see who gets this one:

"Unfortunately, people never believe thay have nothing else to lose until they have already lost it. They're afraid."

Jan

[bulletproofmonk]

That's it, Joan!

Okay, let's see who gets this one:

"Unfortunately, people never believe thay have nothing else to lose until they have already lost it. They're afraid."

Jan

Oooo...now THAT's a good one. Ummm...that's the Brakiri guy (I assume he was the Brakiri ambassador to B5) informing Delenn about the open rally to protest Delenn's plan to attack Z'ha'dum in "The Summoning", I believe.

[Jan]

Excellent! Somebody else want to put one up?

Jan

[bulletproofmonk]

Excellent! Somebody else want to put one up?

Jan

Should be an easy one: "They MUST be allowed to speak their minds, or we have nothing else worth fighting for."

...or something like that. :P

[Jan]

Should be an easy one: "They MUST be allowed to speak their minds, or we have nothing else worth fighting for."

...or something like that. :P

"But they must be free to speak their minds, or we have nothing left worth fighting for."

Delenn to Lethke (the Brakiri), still in "The Summoning". :D

Here's one:

"They are mysterious, and sometimes they transcend understanding."

Good luck. :)

[Towelmaster]

Brother Alwin in "The Deconstruction of Falling Stars".

I always liked that episode, especially Garibaldi's last trick... ;-)

Brother Alwin in "The Deconstruction of Falling Stars".

But I admit, that was not an easy one!

Excellently done, Towelmaster! Who has another quote for the group?

FP

[Jan]

While we're waiting for a new quote, I was wondering...

Are we going to want to change the game at all when the script books start coming out? Maybe not allow quotes from the latest book or two to keep things even for the people not interested in the books or not able to get them right away?

Thoughts? Ideas?

Another quote?

Jan

Dunno. I will personally not be buying the script books as they will be coming out at a rate that I can not afford.

FP

[Joansie]

That's is a question for thought. As it is when someone mentions a quote we not only give the episode but who said it. Mind you with us coming up to the 100 th page do we really want to change anything except to start another thread say "Name this Scripted quote" :D ;)

[Jan]

This should be really easy:

"You're not politic, you're not subtle and sometimes you're a pain in the ass."

[Jan]

Whew! I think that's a new record for quick! But who said it to whom? ;)

(yeah, like that's hard!)

Jan

[Satai Delenn]

Ah right Sinclair to Garibaldi .

[Jan]

Ta-Da! Six minutes!

Okay, try this one:

Give me *two* instances, and the characters involved, for:

"...much work ahead of us."

:p

Jan

[Satai Delenn]

Here's another easy one at least I think it is

"All the time it's politics and self preservation."

[Satai Delenn]

I keep thinking Sheridan for Jan's of much work ahead of us but at the same time that sounds like G'kar.

[Jan]

WOW! We've now hit 100 pages!

I keep thinking Sheridan for Jan's of much work ahead of us but at the same time that sounds like G'kar.

No, neither of those, Satai Delenn.

Yours sounds like it might be Ivanova?

Jan

[Towelmaster]

One instance might be between Lorien and Zathras?

[Jan]

One instance might be between Lorien and Zathras?

Hmm...I'll have to check and see about that. It's not one of the ones I was thinking of, though.

Edit: Wait...Lorien and Zathras? Did they have any scenes together?

Jan

[WorkerCaste]

Ta-Da! Six minutes!

Okay, try this one:

Give me *two* instances, and the characters involved, for:

"...much work ahead of us."

:p

JanI'm pretty sure that one instance is Valen to the miscellaneus Minbari at the end of "War Without End Part 2" I can't think of another one for the life of me, although I keep thinking of Sinclair saying it to someone. Of course, that may just be because Valen is Sinclair, but somehow I hear it coming out of the fully human Sinclair in addition to the transformed Sinclair/Valen. Or, I could be wrong on both! :D

[Jan]

I'm pretty sure that one instance is Valen to the miscellaneus Minbari at the end of "War Without End Part 2"

Yep, that's right. I thought that one would be guessed almost before I posted it. The second instance is in the same season fir that helps. :)

Jan

[WorkerCaste]

Yep, that's right. I thought that one would be guessed almost before I posted it. The second instance is in the same season fir that helps.I kept trying to get the other instance before I posted, but I eventually gave up and just went with the one I thought I knew. :)

[Towelmaster]

Hmm...I'll have to check and see about that. It's not one of the ones I was thinking of, though.

Edit: Wait...Lorien and Zathras? Did they have any scenes together?

Jan

Sorry, don't know. I meant Zathras and wotsisname, Draal...

[Jan]

:o
Oh, dear...this is embarrasing. I really apologize... I screwed up. Remember I was looking for two instances of '...much work ahead of us."? WorkerCaste got the one, Valen to the Minbari on Babylon 4.
:o
The second one, which nobody got, was in 'A Late Delivery from Avalon'. Nobody got it because it *never showed up on screen*. It was in the script but was apparently cut.
:o
It was in the Customs Area when Marcus was talking to Arthur. Franklin tells the guards that he and Marcus would handle things. In the script, it goes:

ARTHUR
Who is this?

MARCUS
A doctor. Stephen Franklin

ARTHUR
I'm in no need of a doctor. Take your leeches elsewhere. I'm just...a little late that's all. Now, I would meet with whoever is in charge of this place. There is much work ahead of us.

I could *hear* Michael York saying it in my mind. Trouble was, it was only in my mind, not on the final episode. It was cut right after "...a little late, that's all."

:o Sorry!

Jan

[Sigma]

The second one, which nobody got, was in 'A Late Delivery from Avalon'. Nobody got it because it *never showed up on screen*. It was in the script but was apparently cut.
how common is that? How often there are extra bits and pieces of dialogue in scripts - every other script? couple of scripts in a season?

[Jan]

Things like that, pretty common. A sentence here, an exchange there...I wouldn't be surprised if it happened at least once per script. Believe it or not, I've never finished reading-while-watching every episode.

The editing on the show was really amazing, let me tell you. I've found times where half a sentence was cut and I'd never have known if I didn't see it in black and white. Less frequent were when entire scenes were cut. The interesting thing is, though, that what got snipped could change the entire 'feel' of a scene, often making it more intense.

Jan

[Towelmaster]

"Aw nuts"...

Oh and by the way : "BUMP"! :)

[Jan]

"Aw nuts"...

Gotta be either Ivanova or Garibaldi but it's not coming to me.

Oh and by the way : "BUMP"! :)

I...don't think "Bump" is a quote. ;) "Thump", on the other hand, is.

<g,d,rlh>

Jan

[FuryPilot]

"Aw nuts"...

Sheridan to Ivanova in "A Day in the Strife", talking about how now that's he saved the station.... again, he now has to reopen the shouting match known as the Transport Association Meeting. :)

It seems to me that I've heard that quote from another character. I believe it was also Garabaldi's reaction phrase Sheridan sat on his comlink, blowing his cover to the mad bomber in some episode I can't remember the name of.

Oh and by the way : "BUMP"! :)
"Bump?" Doing that to keep the thread on the first page? Or something else?

FD

[WorkerCaste]

"Thump", on the other hand, is."And they made a most satisfyying thump as they hit the floor." G'Kar to Marcus in "A Late Delivery from Avalon"
