Quotes 

• Capt. Neal Patterson : How did she manage to overthrow the men?

  Talleah : Tey didn't take hair seriously. Tey vere preparing for var. After all, she vas only a voman.

• Capt. Neal Patterson : We may not have a chance to talk later. We may not even live through the day. But, I just want to say, while I have the chance: I love you.

  Talleah : Loff - I've almost forgotten. But, if it is the varm feeling dat makes my heart sing, ten I too loff you.

• Capt. Neal Patterson : I didn't say anything to the Queen. I didn't want to put her on guard, but I'm beginning to think our being here is not an accident.

  Prof. Konrad : I'm afraid I must agree with you.

  Lt. Mike Cruze : What is that? What is that?

  Capt. Neal Patterson : The ray that destroyed the space station and knocked us off our course may have originated right here.

  Lt. Mike Cruze : Oh, come off it! How could a bunch of women invent a gizmo like that?

  Lt. Larry Turner : Sure, and even if they invented it, how could they aim it? You know how women drivers are!

• Lt. Larry Turner : If I see any of those little green men, I'll faint. The sound of my body falling will wake you up.

  Capt. Neal Patterson : Nah, I wouldn't worry. The fire ought to keep 'em away.

• Capt. Neal Patterson : You don't just accidentally land on a planet 36,000.000 miles away!

  Prof. Konrad : It would appear that all things are possible in space.

• Capt. Neal Patterson : You're not only a Queen, you're a woman too. And a woman needs a man's love. Let me see your face.

  Queen Yllana : Ahhhh

  [as her mask is pulled off] 

  Queen Yllana : ! For that you will die!

  Capt. Neal Patterson : I'm sorry. I didn't realize!

  Queen Yllana : Radiation burns. Men did this to me, men and their wars. You say I need the love of a man. Very well. Now that you know, will you give me that love, Captain?

  [drawing her hideously disfigured face toward the captain's] 

• Prof. Konrad : I don't think they like strangers.

  Capt. Neal Patterson : I don't think they like men!

  Lt. Larry Turner : Yeah, where are the men?

• Queen Yllana : Your people of earth have always been aggressive and warlike.

  Capt. Neal Patterson : We told you, our mission was a peaceful one.

  Queen Yllana : You betray yourselves, Captain. When my guards found you, your first reaction was to kill!

• Lt. Mike Cruze : And I'm the guy that said this was going to be a lousy milk run.

  Lt. Larry Turner : Very interesting, so far!

  Capt. Neal Patterson : It would be more interesting when we find out what they're going to do with us.

• Capt. Neal Patterson : That sounds down right subversive. Who are you?

  Talleah : I'm Talleah. I'm a member of the Queen's court.

• Capt. Neal Patterson : What happened to them, the men?

  Talleah : They're all gone.

  Lt. Mike Cruze : You mean they're dead?

  Talleah : Not all of them. Some of them she needed. Scientist. Mathematicians.

• Prof. Konrad : I watched her. Believe me, Captain Patterson, she only had eyes for you.

  Lt. Mike Cruze : That's it! Maybe Yllana has more on her mind besides military information. Neal, why don't you give her the ole romance bit? You know, give her that black magic.

  Capt. Neal Patterson : Queen Yllana?

  Lt. Larry Turner : She's a woman, isn't she!

  Prof. Konrad : Yes, remember the legend of Achilles heel. No one, man or woman, is completely invulnerable.

  Lt. Larry Turner : Now, listen, Skipper, maybe I'm the fella that oughta have all this romantic razzamatazz.

  Capt. Neal Patterson : Sorry. I don't think Yllana's your type.

  Lt. Larry Turner : What do you mean? If she's a woman, she's my type!

• Capt. Neal Patterson : It's delicious! It's exciting and mysterious as Queen Yllana.

• Queen Yllana : Even a Queen can be lonely, Captain. I've never admitted it until now.

  Capt. Neal Patterson : Yllana.

  Queen Yllana : The moment I saw you, in the counsel chamber, I felt a weakness most unbecoming to a Queen.

  Capt. Neal Patterson : But, not unbecoming to a lovely woman. Take off your mask.

• Capt. Neal Patterson : I understand you better than you do yourself. You're denying man's love. Substituting hatred in a passion for this monstrous power you possess.

• Capt. Neal Patterson : Is there any special reason for taking your friends along?

  Talleah : Yes. Because if we can't change the civilization here, I thought, perhaps, we can go someplace and start one on our own.

  Prof. Konrad : She's straightforward about it, anyway. I hope you realize, Captain, this leaves you with a grave responsibility.

  Capt. Neal Patterson : Well...

  Talleah : I'm sure that the Captain is dependable in everything.

• Capt. Neal Patterson : Talleah, you're amazing. Why, you know, on earth a girl would rather die than show her real feelings. We have an old saying: A man chases a girl until she catches him.

  Talleah : How silly! What a silly waste of time. I think if a girl wants a man, she should tell him so.

  Capt. Neal Patterson : You're very beautiful, Talleah.

  Talleah : I'm glad you noticed. It took you such a long time.

  Capt. Neal Patterson : I noticed from the very first.

  Talleah : And I noticed that I wanted to kiss you from the very beginning.

  [kiss] 

• Capt. Neal Patterson : Tie her up!

  Queen Yllana : Let me go!

  Capt. Neal Patterson : Put her in back of that screen.

  Lt. Larry Turner : It'll be a pleasure.

  Queen Yllana : Let me go! You're hurting me, let me go! Let me go!

• Lt. Mike Cruze : Well, what now?

  Prof. Konrad : My guess is, they want to look us over.

  Capt. Neal Patterson : That's fair enough. Larry's sure looking them over.

  Lt. Larry Turner : You're not foolin'. How do you like that blonde? Wow! Hey Mike, how'd you like to drag that to the Senior Prom?
