Capt. William 'Buck' Rogers : If he is from the 20th century, you couldn't keep me away. All right. Do you have any idea where he's being held captive?
Lieutenant Dia Cyrton : My informant say he's being held on Aldebaran 2, somewhere outside the capital city of Barony.
Capt. William 'Buck' Rogers : Aldebaran 2. Terrific. Another visit to the Barbary Coast of space. You know the last time I was there I was almost killed?
Lieutenant Dia Cyrton : Me too. Great place, isn't it?
Capt. William 'Buck' Rogers : This trip is gonna be a whole lotta fun.

Capt. William 'Buck' Rogers : You know, Hieronymous, I'm going to be real sorry to see you go back to Genesia. You're the first person I've met from my own time. Probably the last.
Twiki : He's sure the shortest.
Hieronymous Fox : You wanna say that again, transistor face?
Twiki : [chirping]
Hieronymous Fox : What did he say?
Dr. Theopolis : He was apologizing, Mr. President.
Twiki : No, I wasn't.
Dr. Theopolis : Oh, yes, you were. Do you want to start an interstellar incident? Do you want the the blood of thousands on your pincers?

Colonel Wilma Deering : It's a tree.
Dr. Theopolis : Not quite, Colonel. It's a Ficus decora, commonly known as a rubber plant.
Capt. William 'Buck' Rogers : Yeah. Isn't it beautiful? I had to go to three hydroponics labs to find one.
Twiki : [chirping] Somebody wanna take this thing?
Capt. William 'Buck' Rogers : Sorry, Twiki. There we are.

Dr. Elias Huer : Well, I'm extremely touched, Buck, but I don't think I'd know how to take proper care of such a thing.
Capt. William 'Buck' Rogers : Oh, it's a snap, Doc. You just water it twice a week and feed it once a month. It'll grow on you.
Dr. Elias Huer : That's just what I'm afraid of.
