Quotes 

• Zari Tomaz : [Mick uses his totem powers to cook food]  Hey, hi, um, do you think that maybe you could do that somewhere else? We do have a galley.

  Mick Rory : You want a dog?

  Zari Tomaz : It's pork.

  Mick Rory : So what?

  Zari Tomaz : No, thank you.

  [he uses his powers to pop a bowl of popcorn] 

  Zari Tomaz : Wow, I'm sure that's what those ancient folks had in mind when they created the Fire totem.

  Mick Rory : Every man's gotta eat.

• Gideon : Sorry to interrupt, Ms. Jiwe, but Dr. Heywood requests your presence in the library.

  Amaya Jiwe : Captain's duties are never over. But seeing as you're not busy...

  Zari Tomaz : [to herself]  No, no, no, please don't... please don't ask me.

  Amaya Jiwe : I can't think of anyone better to learn to train a new totem bearer.

• Amaya Jiwe : There you are, Mick. You ready?

  Mick Rory : For what?

  Amaya Jiwe : Training. Do you remember? We spoke about learning to harness the powers of the totem.

  Mick Rory : Hmm. I got a new trick. Pull my finger.

  Amaya Jiwe : What?

  Mick Rory : Pull my finger.

  Zari Tomaz : Do not pull his finger. Let's just say hot dogs aren't the only thing he's learned how to light on fire.

• Zari Tomaz : Okay, you said to wait until after your second lunch. This is your fourth. Amaya wants me to teach you how to use your totem, so let's get cracking.

  Mick Rory : If I wanted to learn, I would've gone to school.

• Zari Tomaz : [irritated at Rory]  Sorry, blood sugar thing. Fasting.

  Mick Rory : Fasting.

  Zari Tomaz : Yeah, I'm not eating.

  Mick Rory : Trying to lose some fat, huh?

  Zari Tomaz : No, I love my body. I'm trying to observe Ramadan.

  Mick Rory : [offering a tray of sandwiches]  So observe it on a full stomach.

  Zari Tomaz : Is this bacon?

  Mick Rory : You Jewish?

  Zari Tomaz : [giving up]  I don't even know what... I can't.

• Zari Tomaz : Okay, now concentrate on the target. It's about focus and precision.

  Mick Rory : Like I need help lighting things on fire.

• Zari Tomaz : I said just the target, you idiot.

  Mick Rory : I'm the idiot?

  Zari Tomaz : Yeah.

  Mick Rory : You're the one who doesn't eat when you're hungry. Maybe if you did, you wouldn't be such a bitch.

  Zari Tomaz : [insulted]  What did you just say?

  Mick Rory : You heard me.

• Mick Rory : [Zari uses her totem powers to spin him around in the air]  I'll do what you want. Just... just put me down.

  [their totems light up, and she puts him down] 

  Mick Rory : Thanks.

  Zari Tomaz : No, it wasn't me, it was our totems. Something's wrong.

  [she activates her totem] 

  Zari Tomaz : It's Kuasa. She's dead.

  Mick Rory : Yeah. I need a drink.

• Mick Rory : Thought you couldn't eat.

  Zari Tomaz : Yeah, I told Gideon to tell me when sundown would've been if I'd been at home. But, I mean, Ramadan is just a stupid 1,400 year old tradition to you, right? So why am I even talking about it?

  Mick Rory : [conjuring a fireball]  Well, uh, how about if I help you heat it up?

• Zari Tomaz : You know, I can't stop thinking about Kuasa. I felt her die.

  Mick Rory : Uh, me too. Mind you, she did try to kill us a couple of times.

  Zari Tomaz : But she was a totem bearer, and Amaya's granddaughter. And the totems supposedly connect us to something larger.

  Mick Rory : Yeah, for better or worse.

  Zari Tomaz : You know, I think that's kind of why I still fast. When I was little, my mom tried to get me to do it. And I wouldn't, but she did make me learn how to cook iftar. It's the meal we eat to break the fast. And while she cooked, she would say that Ramadan's not just a time for honoring God, but a time to honor tradition and family. Community. So whenever I fast or cook iftar, it... it makes me feel connected to my mom.

  Mick Rory : I'm hungry.

  Zari Tomaz : Still pork.

  Mick Rory : Still good.
