Quotes 

• Karen McCorder : When this is over I think you should have a complete physical.

  Jeffrey Wilder : I was perfectly alright before I became indestructible.

• Karen McCorder : [trapped on top of a tower]  We'll climb down.

  Jeffrey Wilder : We'll break our necks!

  Karen McCorder : What are you worried about? Yours is indestructible.

  Jeffrey Wilder : Yeah, but it still hurts.

• Jeffrey Wilder : Instantaneous Regeneration? You sure your lab boys haven't done one too many science experiments? Get out of here!

  [waves off lab techs who are trying to remove his readout leads] 

  Art Bogosian : Please, please. Let us talk, please?

  Jeffrey Wilder : Can I go home now? I haven't seen my son in two days! He's probably worn out his welcome at the neighbors!

  Art Bogosian : Mr. Wilder, you must understand our concern.

  Jeffrey Wilder : Look! You can't keep me here! I have a life!

  Art Bogosian : How do you explain your miraculous escape from the fire?

  Jeffrey Wilder : How do I know? Luck! Look, people have been thrown clear of explosions before, it happens!

  Art Bogosian : And the shooting?

  Jeffrey Wilder : The bullet was probably a... a blank!

  Art Bogosian : It was real, Mr. Wilder! Very real! It was shown on your X-Ray when you were brought in the other day!

  [holds up an X-Ray] 

  Art Bogosian : It clearly shows a bullet lodged in your abdomen!

  [holds up another X-Ray] 

  Art Bogosian : This one! Was taken this morning! There is no trace of the bullet! Apparently, it was absorbed by your system!

  Jeffrey Wilder : This is crazy! I mean, what are you telling me? I'm just gonna keep on... regenerating?

  [lowers his voice] 

  Jeffrey Wilder : I'm never gonna die?

  Art Bogosian : That's difficult for us to believe too, but that does appear to be the fact!

  Jeffrey Wilder : So what do I do now? Cancel my life insurance?

  Art Bogosian : You can work for me.

  Jeffrey Wilder : The government?

  Karen McCorder : We'd be working together, Mr. Wilder.

  Art Bogosian : Mr. Wilder, we've given you every test known to medical science, there is no explanation for your condition. Think of what that would mean to someone in power! Groups, terrorist groups would court you! Or kidnap you! In the hopes of tapping into your new found ability! Think of the possibilities, Jeffrey! A man who cannot die! Nobody can stop! No army could kill! No, Jeffrey. You will never be the same, old Jeffrey Wilder again.

  Jeffrey Wilder : I don't know what's happened to me, or what's gonna happen, or what any of this means, but I do know I don't want to be your guinea pig. I pass, Mr. Bogosian. I'm sorry.

  Karen McCorder : Jeffrey, you don't have to give us your answer right now. Just, think about it.

  Jeffrey Wilder : No, no. I'm not interested. I'm a cab driver. That's all. Now, if you don't mind, I'd like to go home. I got a kid to take care of, and a dog to find.
