Quotes5

  • Mike Donovan: How'd someone like that get to be your leader anyway?
  • Martin: Charisma. Circumstances, promises... Not enough of us spoke out to question him until it was too late. It happens on your planet, doesn't it?
  • Martin: The Leader needs them living. Some of them will be made into troops for battles with his enemy.
  • Mike Donovan: What enemy?
  • Martin: A force that has defeated him before.
  • Mike Donovan: His enemy. That makes them our friends, right?
  • Martin: I don't know...
  • Mike Donovan: Well, there's something to go on. You said some of them will be his troops. Not all.
  • Martin: No.
  • Mike Donovan: What about the others?
  • Martin: In addition to the water... there is another basic shortage on our planet.
  • Mike Donovan: Food.
  • Mike Donovan: That damn dragon lady can bend people's minds around, what the hell does she need a blowtorch for!
  • Martin: Conversion is a very difficult and time consuming operation. When Diana simply needs some information, she'll do whatever's most effective and efficient... And she *likes* to do it.
  • Martin: You know Diana, rather than putting Mr. Donovan away, he might prove very useful to us as a convert.
  • Diana: My instincts tell me he'd be too difficult as a subject. That's why I decided not to bother. Take him to the final area.
  • Martin: I always thought you thrived on challenges...
  • Diana: I do, but I like better odds.
  • Martin: That's curious, I would've have thought you'd find the difficult game far more interesting. But anyway, you're probably right. I don't think even you with all your abilities could ever turn this head of his...
  • [Turns to walk out of the room]
  • Diana: Martin wait. Don't take him to the final area just yet... Perhaps I would enjoy the challenge of converting him.
  • Martin: Well, as you wish Diana.
  • Mike Donovan: Martin. Say it man! You're scared.
  • Martin: It's very very dangerous for me here now.
  • Mike Donovan: [pointing to the wounded man] What does he look like? A sunday afternoon at Disneyland? I'm sure Barbara was scared and Tony too! Hell man! We're all scared! Every damn one of us! But we've all gotta help out in the best way we can. Now how about it man? Are you game?
