Quotes 

• Michael Knight : Give 'em some more juice.

  K.I.T.T. : One freshly squeezed DC coming right up.

• Michael Knight : EGM?

  K.I.T.T. : Electrical generating mode. Puts out enough current to power a small city.

  Michael Knight , Devon Miles : Shocking!

• Michael Knight : [while electrocuting Clifton]  Morning, Clifton. Rather electrifying day don't you think?

• Margo Sheridan : [pointing a gun at Michael]  If I ever run for president, I'll be sure to make you my running mate.

  Michael Knight : It would be a first.

• Michael Knight : [looking at Kitt's new and improved dashboard]  Now if I only knew what some of these things do.

  K.I.T.T. : Only one way to find out, Michael, but don't push the turbo boost.

  Devon Miles : He's still got a sense of humor.

• Michael Knight : It's like old times, huh?

  Bonnie Barstow : Don't kid yourself.

• Bonnie Barstow : You're still tall.

  Michael Knight : You're still beautiful.

• Michael Knight : Too bad Bonnie's not around.

  Devon Miles : Didn't I tell you?

  Michael Knight : What?

  Devon Miles : She is, she's taking advance studies at the university here.

  Michael Knight : No kidding. Did you talk to her?

  Devon Miles : Yes. And if you're wondering why I haven't asked her to return to the Foundation, I have. Her answer was no. A very polite but firm no.

• Michael Knight : Kitt, there's no one inside here.

  K.I.T.T. : Michael, that's impossible. A car doesn't drive by itself.

  Michael Knight : Doesn't it?

• Michael Knight : I don't think they understand the language!

  K.I.T.T. : Very well,

  [Speaking Chinese] 

  K.I.T.T. : "Go back to the zoo where you belong!"

• K.I.T.T. : Your passive laser restraint system on, Michael?

  Michael Knight : I wouldn't drive without it!

• K.I.T.T. : [Spotting CJ Jackson's escape car]  Michael, there he is.

  Michael Knight : I gotcha pal!

• Devon Miles : You're saying your radio turned into a robot?

  Carter : I know it sounds crazy, but that's what happened!

  Michael Knight : And then this little robot shot out a puff of smoke and you passed out before you reached the alarm?

  Carter : Dead to the world!

  Devon Miles : [Showing the melted radio]  And when you came to, this was all that was left?

  Carter : If you don't mind, I don't want that thing anywhere near me!

  Michael Knight : The description of the woman who gave this to you was pretty vague.

  Carter : What can I say, I was more interested in a free radio! Check with the donut shop, they gotta know her.

  Michael Knight : The police already have.

  Carter : What'd they say?

  Michael Knight : They said they don't give away prizes, and they don't count donuts!

  Carter : [sighs]  Why wife's never gonna believe this.

  Michael Knight : She'll have a lot of company!

• Michael Knight : Devon, who is this CJ Jackson, and what has he got to do with the heart and soul of The Foundation?

  Devon Miles : Michael, before Wilton Knight discovered you, we had another man in your position. His name was Ken Franklin. He had all the qualifications. Well, all except one - he wasn't a police officer. One night, several years ago, I remember it was raining - most unusual for the time of year. Franklin had been tailing Jackson, he was convinced that Jackson hadn't made him. But he was wrong.

  Michael Knight : Jackson killed him?

  Devon Miles : One bullet did it. But Jackson shot him five more times. We all took the tragic loss very hard, but noone harder than Wilton Knight. He closed the Foundation, put the entire FLAG project on hold, and didn't reactivate it until we found you. Jackson belongs in jail Michael. Wilton Knight will not rest easily until he's back behind bars - nor will I.

  Michael Knight : Alright Devon that makes three of us.

  [Shaking Devon's hand] 

  Michael Knight : This one's for WIlton, huh?

  Devon Miles : Good luck, Michael.

  Michael Knight : Thanks Devon.

• Michael Knight : Bonnie, I'm not asking you to sign up for a tour of duty. Just help us find CJ Jackson. No obligations, no contracts, no promises.

  Bonnie Barstow : You're tryin' to tempt me!

  Michael Knight : How am I doin'?

  Bonnie Barstow : No contracts, no obligations?

  Michael Knight : Scouts honour!

• Dr. David Halston : [after linking Michael up to some cables]  All finished - how do you feel?

  Michael Knight : Like a guinea pig!

  Dr. David Halston : That's exactly what you are! I'm doing a computerised project on pain - from inception to threshold.

  [Noticing Michael looking concerned] 

  Dr. David Halston : Don't worry.

  [Pointing to a button on the floor] 

  Dr. David Halston : You can abort anytime you choose by stepping on that button in front of your chair. If that's not enough, I'm wired in just like you are, I'll feel everything that you feel, and believe me - I'm not a masochist! Are you ready?

  Michael Knight : Wait a minute - what am I supposed to do?

  Dr. David Halston : Feel the pain!

  Michael Knight : Until?

  Dr. David Halston : Until one of us aborts.

  Michael Knight : Why do I feel like this is some sort of contest?

  Dr. David Halston : Perhaps it's just your competitive nature! Ready?

  [Michael nods. David turns a small dial and Michael shows signs of being in discomfort, whereas David appears unperturbed. David turns the dial further, and Michael is visibly shaking and in pain, but David shows no ill effects. He keeps turning the dial higher and Michael is quivering in intense pain until he slams his foot on the abort button and a buzzer is heard. The pain machine is deactivated and Michael is sweating and panting] 

  Dr. David Halston : Stay right there, I'll unstrap you.

  Michael Knight : How come you're not sweating?

  Dr. David Halston : I never do - I didn't feel any pain.

  Michael Knight : [Michael notices a loose cable on the ground]  Maybe it's because you forgot to hook up your wires!

  Dr. David Halston : [Appearing surprised]  Imagine that! Still, you make an excellent subject!

  Michael Knight : [In a stern voice]  Dr Halston - you try something like that again, it'd be a BIG mistake!

• Michael Knight : [Trying one of KITT's new functions]  Alright, here goes - IGP.

  K.I.T.T. : That stands for my new three-dimensional Interactive Graphics Plotter.

  Michael Knight : [With a confused look]  What's that?

  K.I.T.T. : Let's say we run up against someone wearing a disguise, and want to find out who he really is, like this man here.

  [Shows a picture of an intimidating man on the monitor] 

  Devon Miles : Oh, I hope you don't run into him in a dark alley!

  K.I.T.T. : I simply break down his face with my IGP.

  [the face on KITT's monitor starts morphing into another face] 

  K.I.T.T. : Then activate my linear predictive graphics routine and voila! A 3D reconstruction of the real face.

  [the face is now Devon's face] 

  Michael Knight : You're right! I wouldn't want to run into him in a dark alley!

• Dr. David Halston : [Holding Bonnie hostage with a gun pointed at Michael]  Stay where you are! You try to follow us, she's dead, remember that!

  Michael Knight : You hurt her, and there's not a place on this Earth that I won't find you! You remember THAT!
