Quotes 

• Al : Gushie, I could kiss you, if you didn't have bad breath.

• Al : Leon, I know you're confused. But the truth is, you don't belong here.

  Leon Stiles : What, is this some kind of dream or something?

  Al : No, it's not a dream. I came to take you back, Leon.

  Leon Stiles : Back to where?

  Al : Back to 1958. There was a mix-up in an experiment, and accidentally, you traveled forty years into the future. You traded places with a friend of mine, who's stuck back in '58!

  Leon Stiles : You think I'm stupid?

  Al : Would I make up a story like this?

  Leon Stiles : People don't just jump into other people's lives!

  Al : Well, my friend does.

• [Al has just been shot by Stiles] 

  Hooker : Oh, my God. I thought you were dead.

  Al : [groans]  No, I'm not dead.

  [he opens his jacket] 

  Hooker : What's that?

  Al : That's a... that's... a bulletproof vest. And never track a psychotic killer without one.

  Hooker : Hey, is that guy from another planet, or what?

  Al : Mostly "or what".

• Gushie : [voice]  Admiral.

  Al : [looking around]  Who said that?

  Gushie : [voice]  It's me. Gushie.

  Al : Gushie? Where are you?

  Gushie : [voice]  I'm right in front of you. Can't you see me?

  Al : If I could see you, would I be talking to the sidewalk?

  Gushie : [voice]  I guess Ziggy didn't do a very good job of syncing our brain waves.

  Al : I take that as a compliment.

• Al : [Styles draws his gun on a Corporal that's just exited an elevator who then does the same]  If you kill him, Dr Beckett can never get back. Put the gun away. That's an order, Corporal!

• Ziggy : Good evening, Admiral. Before we begin the profile scan, I'd like to take this opportunity to express my admiration for your selfless attempt to rescue Dr. Beckett. It is a fitting testimony to the bonding which humans tend to display toward others of their species. Unfortunately, I project a less than 34% chance of success.

  Al : Well, thanks for the vote of confidence.
