- [Sam has leaped into Jesus Ortega, who is sentenced to death by electrocution]
- Al: Uh, according to Ziggy, you die on the 14th of May 1971. That's... oh, that's in two days.
- Sam: I got that, Al! Why?
- Al: Why?
- Sam: Why?
- Al: Well, probably because you can't live with two thousand volts of electricity running through your body.
- Al: [about Jesus Ortega] Well, he's, he's out cold in the Waiting Room. We can't revive him. Dr. Beeks thinks that Jesus thinks that he's already dead. So he's slipped into kind of a comatose coma or whatever.
- Sam: Well, tell Beeks to bring him around!
- Al: Well, you can't just dump a bucket of water on his head and say, "Hey, hey get up. You're not dead. You're just 25 years in the future." These things take time, Sam.
- Al: [when seeing Tearsa for the first time] Oh! Look at this, Sam. If I had had an attorney like that when I was in court, I'd still be in court.
- Al: [to Tearsa, on Moody] He's gonna break you into a million pieces and walk away with the Governorship and let two innocent men die in the chair. I just hope Sam Beckett's not one of them.
- Theodore Moody: Are you going to... dance before your execution, Jesus? Oh... It's an old prison saying. That a man on his final walk to the chair - the stench of fear chokes him, and he panics, struggling in the arms of his captor for one moment of freedom. Some people say it looks like a dance - the last dance before death. A little manic, don't you think?
- Margerita Lorrea Tearsa: [to Sam/Jesus after she discovers Jesus murdered a priest after all] You used me!
- Margerita Lorrea Tearsa: Let it go, Theo. It's over.
- Theodore Moody: Over? Yes, for him it's over. For you, it's just beginning. For you I have a special punishment to fit your disloyalty.
- Margerita Lorrea Tearsa: It's hard to be loyal to the devil.
