- Alphonso 'Mack' Mackenzie: If we ever get out of here, I'm gonna tour my bike down a very scenic highway till the wheels melt off.
- Flint: Isn't that the thing kids ride?
- Alphonso 'Mack' Mackenzie: It's a motorcycle. Imagine a-a rocket with two wheels with a place to hold on.
- Flint: Sounds crazy.
- Alphonso 'Mack' Mackenzie: Yeah, you'd dig it.
- Leo Fitz: He's a bright kid. Sorry I killed the guards in front of him.
- Alphonso 'Mack' Mackenzie: Yeah. It's good to see him building something. There's too much death in this place. And asking you to blow out that window and the Krees didn't help.
- Leo Fitz: [referring to Jemma] Oh, that wasn't me. That was the fiancée.
- Alphonso 'Mack' Mackenzie: Fiancée?
- Deke Shaw: Guns, man! It's like cheating! They shouldn't give these to anyone that's not a really, really good person.
- Melinda May: You think there'd be a law.
- Deke Shaw: I'll go. I'll secure the machine and... save the weird robot.
- Daisy 'Skye' Johnson: Well, I'll come. It'd be better if we take the plane together.
- Deke Shaw: Well. No duh. But one of the time travelers can go, because you all need to be at the rendezvous when it's turned on, do the math.
- Phil Coulson: You're one guy against the Kree. You'll be massively outgunned.
- Deke Shaw: I'm kind of trying to do the whole hero thing here, man. Is that your pep talk? You guys get killed, who saves the world then? I told my parents to not believe in this roach-crap fairy tale, and they went and they died for it anyway. And I'm probably next in line. But there is no way in hell that I'm gonna let some blue Kreeper destroy that machine before I get to see whether or not that damn thing was worth any of this.
- Daisy 'Skye' Johnson: Look, I'm sure you put up a good fight, but if my ride home depends on that machine, I'm gonna secure it myself.
- Deke Shaw: You - you drive me out of my skull, this part of you - this impetuous, bullheaded squabble!
- Daisy 'Skye' Johnson: I was offering backup, genius.
- Deke Shaw: No, when the other side of you is a friggin' hero who can't help herself but do good, then be great. The world needs that person to make it home. Just try not the destroy it when you get there.
- Daisy 'Skye' Johnson: It was almost nice knowing you.
- Deke Shaw: And you're a pain in my ass.
- Future Elena: We made it back home, and we fought to save the world from a future we knew was coming.
- Elena 'Yo-Yo' Rodriguez: We have to fight.
- Future Elena: Of course. But the more we fought... the closer it came. The team makes one choice, and it ruins everything.
- Elena 'Yo-Yo' Rodriguez: A choice to do what?
- Future Elena: To save him.
- Elena 'Yo-Yo' Rodriguez: What do you mean?
- Future Elena: Phil Coulson is dying. And you have to let him.
- Phil Coulson: We don't even know you did this.
- Daisy 'Skye' Johnson: I was right in the epicenter.
- Phil Coulson: I won't let you sacrifice yourself because you're scared of what's to come.
- Daisy 'Skye' Johnson: What's to come is the end of everything.
- Melinda May: If you can change the future here, you can change it from back home.
- Daisy 'Skye' Johnson: But we know the solution works. We can stop this today.
- Phil Coulson: No, it's not about today. It's about tomorrow. Even if we solve this problem, the world is never safe. The job goes on. We go on. Please.
- Daisy 'Skye' Johnson: Maybe I don't go with you. You know it's the right move. Coulson, as an Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., you trained me to fight. Now I'm making my stand here.
- Phil Coulson: May trained you to fight. I need you to lead.
- Enoch: Hello, again. They have located me. Repeat - they have located me.
- Phil Coulson: We copy. You sure they found you?
- Enoch: The evidence is highly suggestive.
- Phil Coulson: We never should have left him alone.
- Melinda May: We're here forever if he loses control of that machine.
- Phil Coulson: Enoch, how long can you hold out?
- [shoots a Kree through the door]
- Enoch: I calculate 12 minutes.
- Daisy 'Skye' Johnson: What? That is not enough time. That machine activates the Monolith we haven't even built yet.
- Melinda May: We have to go secure the Zephyr.
- Deke Shaw: Oh, damn it. Really? We had to leave the machines in the hands of some automaton? I knew the moment that I laid eyes on all of you that it was gonna spell my downfall.
- Enoch: I think this vessel is too damaged to power the Monolith.
- Deke Shaw: Then what can?
- Enoch: Me. My battery has sustained me for more than 32,000 Earth years. Modifying the cell stack could create a thermal feedback capable of delivering more than enough power.
- Deke Shaw: Thermal feedback? What happens to you in the scenario?
- Enoch: I will expire knowing I returned my friends home. And then my battery chemistry will consume my body in an exothermal reaction violent enough to decimate several levels of the Lighthouse.
- Deke Shaw: So it's not great for the guy that's standing next to you flipping the switch.
- Enoch: That person will be completely atomized.
- Kasius: [as he's beating on Mack] I want to watch the light in your eyes die. My father will see me. He will have his world! Not just the sliver Quake left behind.
