Quotes
-
Rimmer : [dramatically] Somehow we've lost the last four days.
The Cat : Did you look behind the fridge? If you lose something it's nearly always there.
Rimmer : Aliens!
Lister : What?
The Cat : What are you talking about, grease stain?
Rimmer : It's a well documented phenomenon. They kidnap you, give you a mind probe, erase your memory, and put you back.
Lister : OK, aliens came aboard.
Rimmer : Without question.
Lister : They broke my leg.
Rimmer : For some reason.
The Cat : They broke MY leg.
Rimmer : Right.
Holly : And then they did a jigsaw.
Rimmer : Right.
Holly : Well, that's cleared that up then.
Rimmer : Look, you're not thinking alien. That's what aliens are: alien. They do alien things. Things that are... alien. Maybe this is the way they communicate.
The Cat : By breaking legs?
Lister : And doing jigsaws?
Rimmer : Why should they speak the way we do? They're aliens.
Lister : OK, professor, what does it mean?
Rimmer : Maybe, maybe, OK? Breaking your leg hurts like hell, OK? "Hel." They do it below the knee, "lo." "Hel-lo," gettit? They do it twice - twice, "two." "Hello two." And the jigsaw must mean "you." "Hello to you."
[pause]
The Cat : I wouldn't like to be around when one of these suckers is making a speech!
[Cat limps away]
