Stargate Atlantis Quotes

	Season 5 / Episode 19: - Vegas Todd the Wraith: Fish in a pond, busy busy, lots to do, here and there. Dry as a desert outside, no place to go. Eat up, get stronger, think and hope, think and hope. Don't look now! Oh, keep dreaming. There must be some other reason for your existence. Defiance tastes like life itself. No river. No water. Die in the desert. Dirt is all around. The harvest moon is rising. Wraith are never-ending. I know the future. Come inside. I'll show you your destiny... John Sheppard.
	Season 5 / Episode 19: - Vegas Dr. Rodney McKay: Thank you for your co-operation, Detective. If you think of anything else... [hands him a card]... call me at this number. Detective John Sheppard: If he's not finished yet, why'd he stop hiding the bodies? Dr. Rodney McKay: I don't know. Over-confidence that he can't be caught? Detective John Sheppard: He left money behind. Dr. Rodney McKay: How much? Detective John Sheppard: A few thousand. Dr. Rodney McKay: Not enough to worry about, I guess. Detective John Sheppard: That's it? You're just gonna let me go? Dr. Rodney McKay: That field medic - the one you defied orders to go back and try and rescue. You knew her personally. You were... involved. Detective John Sheppard: Yeah, you know everything. Dr. Rodney McKay: It was a hard choice. Certainly you didn't intend things to go as badly as they did. Things just don't always go the way we plan. We know where to find you. [Sheppard turns and starts to walk towards the car] Detective. [Sheppard stops and turns back as McKay approaches him again] Remember when I told you I once met another version of you? Detective John Sheppard: Yeah. Dr. Rodney McKay: I know you'll probably think this sounds ridiculous, but a little while ago we accidentally opened a rift in space/time - went through to an alternate version of reality. It was very similar to ours in many ways. We met a team much like the one I work with, only you were the leader. You were a hero, saved the world several times over. Detective John Sheppard: [smiling bitterly] Doesn't sound much like me. Dr. Rodney McKay: I don't think there's much difference between you and that other John Sheppard I met. It's amazing how one incident can entirely alter the course of your life. Still, I like to believe you have the same strength of character. That's why I told you the truth. [turns and starts to walk away. Sheppard calls after him] Detective John Sheppard: What do you want me to say? Dr. Rodney McKay: [over his shoulder] For now, nothing.
	Season 5 / Episode 16: - Brain Storm Dr. McKay: Hey, I'm Dr. Rodney McKay, all right? "Difficult" takes a few seconds; "impossible," a few minutes.
	Season 5 / Episode 6: - The Shrine Dr. Jennifer Keller: You can go ahead Rodney. Dr. Rodney McKay: I don't remember where to start. Dr. Jennifer Keller: Sure you do. Dr. Rodney McKay: No. Dr. Jennifer Keller: Start with your name, like we've been doing, okay? We'll just go from there. Dr. Rodney McKay: My name? My name is... Mr. Rodney McKay. Dr. Jennifer Keller: No... Dr. Rodney McKay: Yes. Dr. Jennifer Keller: No. C'mon now, you're Doctor McKay, remember? Dr. Rodney McKay: No. I'm not anymore. I'm not... smart anymore. Doctors are smart, so I'm Mister now. Dr. Jennifer Keller: Okay. Dr. Rodney McKay: I used to be the smartest person ever. And now... and now I'm not. Dr. Jennifer Keller: That's what we're trying to fix. Dr. Rodney McKay: No. You can't fix me.
	Season 5 / Episode 6: - The Shrine Jeannie Miller: Why the hell didn't you tell me my brother was this far gone? Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: It all happened pretty fast, Jeannie. Jeannie Miller: No... I got a message from him just a couple of weeks ago. He seemed perfectly fine; he'd never been so nice. Dr. Jennifer Keller: That would have been shortly after he became infected. I didn't recognize the symptoms in time. Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: It's not your fault, doc. Richard Woolsey: Frankly Mrs. Miller, we contacted you as soon as we became aware of the seriousness of his condition. In fact, Daedalus dropped you off in the first available gate in Pegasus because we were concerned that you wouldn't make it here in time. We thought you deserved a chance to say goodbye.
	Season 5 / Episode 6: - The Shrine Richard Woolsey: Dr. Keller wanted to take a moment to prepare him for your visit. Jeannie Miller: Yeah, I think I need a moment myself. How did this happen to him? Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: There was a little snafu on our last mission.

Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: Alright. Want me to smack him around or anything? Richard Woolsey: Just the reminder please. Teyla Emmagan: Shouldn't we be concerned for Dr. Nichols' team? Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: No. The settlement's a half hour away from the gate and Woolsey's got him checking in every six. I'm sure Nichols is just tired of taking the round trip. Dr. Rodney McKay: Still, wouldn't hurt to bust his chops a bit. That Nichols is so arrogant.
	Season 5 / Episode 6: - The Shrine Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: [the team emerged from a Stargate that was unexpectedly underwater and is stuck on top] . Alright, everybody. We'll be warm soon enough. Dr. Rodney McKay: I think I got wetter than you did. Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: I don't know. I think I got a little damp dialing the DHD. Teyla Emmagan: The research camp is further up this valley. I'm a little concerned for Dr. Nichols' team. Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: [into radio] Anyone at the research camp, this is Colonel Sheppard, please respond. I repeat, this is Colonel Sheppard, please respond. Dr. Rodney McKay: I'm pretty sure they're all dead. Teyla Emmagan: We can't know that Rodney!

	Season 5 / Episode 6: - The Shrine Dr. Rodney McKay: [in a hospital bed] Hey, can I go now? I feel a little silly lying here. Dr. Jennifer Keller: I'm keeping you under observation for a little longer. Besides, I ordered you dinner. Dr. Rodney McKay: Well, then you can observe me eat, because I'm famished. Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: It's official: he's better.
	Season 5 / Episode 6: - The Shrine Richard Woolsey: I think you've just made a case for my proposal to send a MALP ahead of every single transit. Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: Stuff happens, Woolsey. And by stuff, I mean... Richard Woolsey: I know what you mean, thank you.
	Season 5 / Episode 6: - The Shrine Ronon Dex: [trying to convince Woolsey to let them go to the Shrine] I'm telling you that in a matter of minutes I saw my grandfather go from someone who didn't know his own name to the man that taught me to dragon hunt. Richard Woolsey: You learned to hunt when you were six years old? Ronon Dex: For one day he got to hold his wife in his arms and share a meal with the people that he loved. And then he died with honor. You can say I was too young to remember, but I know what I saw. And we can do the same thing for McKay.

How 'bout we say goodbye now? Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: No. Dr. Rodney McKay: What do you mean, no? Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: I mean I'm not saying goodbye. Dr. Rodney McKay: I'm saying it anyway. Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: Then I'm not listening. Dr. Rodney McKay: Yeah, but pretty soon I won't even know who you are. Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: Well I'll remind you. Dr. Rodney McKay: Yeah but I don't want you to see me like that. I want you to remember me as I am, as your genius friend, not as some shi... Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: -NOT happening. Dr. Rodney McKay: Please. Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: You're stuck with me, Rodney, just accept it. Dr. Rodney McKay: Yeah bu... Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: No! And that's final. Dr. Rodney McKay: Okay. Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: Okay. Dr. Rodney McKay: [meaningful pause] You're a good friend, Arthur. Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: [Looks over, sees McKay is joking, and spits out his beer laughing]

	Season 5 / Episode 6: - The Shrine Dr. Rodney McKay: Absolutely not. Jeannie Miller: We're talking about saving your life. Dr. Rodney McKay: [brandishing the drill] Look, my brain is not some new deck off the back of your house. Lt. Colonel John Sheppard: I'm not the one doing the surgery. Dr. Rodney McKay: [to Keller] Yeah, and as my parting advice, you need to stop letting these guys talk you into doing stupid things. Dr. Jennifer Keller: I can do it. Dr. Rodney McKay: Really? Jeannie Miller: And I'm fairly sure I can modify the life signs detector. Dr. Rodney McKay: Yeah, with my help. Jeannie Miller: So help. Dr. Rodney McKay: Look, this isn't one of those PBS brain surgeries where my scull is open and we're having a conversation... Dr. Jennifer Keller: I have enough anesthetic to put you out, you're not gonna feel a thing. Dr. Rodney McKay: It's probably a hammer.
	Season 5 / Episode 6: - The Shrine Dr. Jennifer Keller: Honestly, I didn't expect it to work. I expected nothing would happen and that would be that. So why did it? You don't believe in magic shrines anymore than I do. Jeannie Miller: Show him the readings. Dr. Rodney McKay: Hm. Jeannie Miller: That's what I said. Dr. Rodney McKay: You said "hm"?

Colonel John Sheppard: That's the same thing in the movies and then wham!
