- Dr. Daniel Jackson: You don't think the Goa'ulds are sending people through, do you?
- Jack O'Neill: Be like bugs on a windshield.
- Dr. Daniel Jackson: So this iris is gonna hold, right?
- Sam Carter: Pure titanium, less than three micrometers from the event horizon. It won't even allow matter to fully reintegrate.
- Jack O'Neill: So this iris is gonna hold, right?
- Sam Carter: If it doesn't, the fail-safe device will detonate, this whole mountain will vaporize, and there'll be nothin' to worry about.
- Jack O'Neill: Ah, good. I feel much better.
- Jack O'Neill: Listen, um, I gotta ask you something. It's not easy for me.
- Major Charles Kawalsky: We're friends.
- Jack O'Neill: If you don't make it... can I have your stereo?
- Teal'c: [speaking of Kawalski, now dead] He was your friend.
- Jack O'Neill: My friend died on the table.
- Teal'c: [commenting on the fact that he was a prisoner of Earth] If I had killed you then, I would not be here now.
- Jack O'Neill: Neither would I.
- Jack O'Neill: [to Kawalsky, who is about to undergo dangerous surgery] If you don't make it, can I have your stereo?
- Major Charles Kawalsky: *Laughs*
- Major General George Hammond: [to Colonel Kennedy] For me, I'll just call the President and get word right from the horses mouth, but you go ahead and talk to your superiors.
