[Throughout the scene, Rodney is complaining that John shot him]
Dr. Rodney McKay : [third time] You shot me.
Lt. Colonel John Sheppard : [exasperated] Yes, Rodney, I shot you, and I said I was sorry.
Ronon Dex : You shot me, too.
Lt. Colonel John Sheppard : I'm sorry for shooting everyone!
-
Dr. Carson Beckett : Do you suppose the Genii are responsible for the energy readings we're detecting?
Dr. Rodney McKay : Probably. It'd be just our luck we've stumbled on one of their nuclear testing sites.
Lt. Kagan : [worried] Nuclear testing site?
Lt. Colonel John Sheppard : Just a small one.
-
Ronon Dex : A Wraith bunker, but no Wraith.
Teyla Emmagan : It appears to have been abandoned for some time.
Lt. Colonel John Sheppard : The Genii probably stumbled on to it just like we did.
Dr. Carson Beckett : And then promptly killed each other. Why?
Dr. Rodney McKay : Another Hardy Boys mystery.
-
Lt. Colonel John Sheppard : What is this?
Dr. Carson Beckett : It appears to be organic.
Dr. Rodney McKay : It's like the energy conduit aboard a Wraith ship... and every bit as disgusting.
-
Lt. Kagan : This frequency... can it hurt us?
Dr. Rodney McKay : It's doubtful, apart from the obvious sterility issues.
Lt. Kagan : Wh-What?
Lt. Colonel John Sheppard : He's kidding. You're kidding, right?
[Rodney makes a non-committal noise]
-
Dr. Rodney McKay : Can we stop for a second?
Lt. Colonel John Sheppard : No.
Dr. Rodney McKay : Look, I mean no disrespect, but this guy's heavy and ever since I was shot in the ass by an arrow, I've been prone to sciattica.
[beat]
Dr. Rodney McKay : No?
-
Lt. Colonel John Sheppard : [They both look at destroyed DHD] Is there any other way to dial? And don't say no if there is *any* possibility, because I am not in the mood for your usual impossible heroics game.
Dr. Rodney McKay : I wouldn't do that!
-
Teyla Emmagan : I am trying to impress upon Dr. McKay that determining how to turn the thing off is more pressing than learning what it actually does.
Lt. Colonel John Sheppard : You don't even know what it does?
Dr. Rodney McKay : Well, I can now state for certain that it is, in fact, a generator.
Lt. Colonel John Sheppard : We already knew that.
-
Teyla Emmagan : Is that what made all these people kill each other?
Dr. Rodney McKay : I hope so.
Lt. Colonel John Sheppard : You hope so?
Dr. Rodney McKay : Otherwise, there are two bizarre things going on, and one is more than enough for me, thank you very much.
-
Dr. Rodney McKay : Genii. They must have discovered the place, started messing around with the machine without having the first clue as to what they were doing. Which explains why the place is covered in this.
[indicates organic material]
Teyla Emmagan : And before the realized what they'd done ...
Dr. Rodney McKay : They couldn't figure out how to turn it off, so they shot the thing, hoping they could somehow kill it, which only made it regrow more, make it that much more difficult for someone with the ability to actually turn it off *to* actually turn it off.
Lt. Colonel John Sheppard : So you can't actually turn it off?
Dr. Rodney McKay : I never said that.
Lt. Colonel John Sheppard : Well, what *did* you say?
-
Lt. Colonel John Sheppard : Don't worry. I'm fine. No violent urges yet. What about you? Getting any ideas about killing me?
Teyla Emmagan : No.
Lt. Colonel John Sheppard : That's good to hear.
-
Lt. Colonel John Sheppard : Did you hear that?
Teyla Emmagan : What?
Lt. Colonel John Sheppard : Engines. Like a Jeep. not that you would know what a Jeep sounds like.
-
Dr. Elizabeth Weir : How are Rodney and Teyla?
Dr. Rodney McKay : He shot me!
Lt. Colonel John Sheppard : They're both fine.
-
Dr. Rodney McKay : You shot me!
Lt. Colonel John Sheppard : Yes, Rodney, I shot you, and I said I was sorry.
-
Lt. Colonel John Sheppard : I'm sorry for shooting everyone!
-
Dr. Rodney McKay : I can't believe you shot me!
Lt. Colonel John Sheppard : Get some sleep Rodney!
