- Martin Bedell: [in the future] Connor wants to shoot me for disobeying orders, he can get in line behind the tin cans.
- Derek Reese: [after speaking to the general to get John into the military school] Good news: you're in.
- John Connor: What's the bad news?
- Derek Reese: I'm in.
- Marty Bedell: Are you a spy?
- Sarah Connor: No, I'm not a spy.
- Marty Bedell: Are you a mom?
- Sarah Connor: Yeah, I'm a mom.
- Marty Bedell: You kinda suck at it.
- Sarah Connor: I know. I'm working on it.
- [Marty tries to call home. Cameron snatches the telephone out of his hand and lifts him up by his collar]
- Cameron Phillips: If you call your mother, that man knows where to find you. Then he'll kill her. He'll kill you.
- Sarah Connor: [coughs slightly] Cameron...
- Cameron Phillips: [to Marty, still holding him up] Would you like a bedtime story?
- Sarah Connor: I'm sorry, I didn't... mean this. This was never the plan, ever.
- Marty Bedell: What was the plan?
- Sarah Connor: I don't know. You can't always have one at all the times. Sometimes you just do, and I did - to you.
- Marty Bedell: Well - you saved my life, right? So - good plan!
- [last lines]
- Derek Reese: And he ran. He ran so fast. Fast enough to get to that tank before it got to Kyle's position. Fast enough to blow it skyhigh. We rescued forty prisoners that day. One of them was John Connor... Martin was always a great runner, but no one... no one could outrun a blast like that. He died, John. He died for you. We all die for you.
- Martin Bedell: Every man in my family going back five generations has been a general or a statesman, CEO, something amazing; they all went here. But you know what the best part about Presidio Alto is? The cross country course. And sometimes when I'm out there, and I'm all alone, I'm going flat out, everything just sort of falls away. Sometimes I wish that...
- John Connor: That you could just keep on running and never look back.
- Martin Bedell: I met this girl over the summer. Her name's Alicia. She's amazing, dude. She started at Dartmouth this year, she's a runner like me. She's coming home in a couple of weeks. When she goes back, I think I'm gonna go with her - and never look back.
- [John reads an article about a man who has been killed]
- Derek Reese: His name is Martin Bedell. He was in century work camp with you, right up until the escape.
- John Connor: So I knew him?
- Derek Reese: You knew him. Everybody knew him.
- Sarah Connor: But he doesn't know this one, does he? Not this Martin Bedell?
- Derek Reese: No. Another Martin Bedell.
- Sarah Connor: Maybe it's just coincidence.
- Derek Reese: How many coincidences named Sarah Connor got killed before Skynet finally locked in on you?
- Derek Reese: You wanna know what happened? To Bedell, what really happened?
- John Connor: I don't know, do I?
- Derek Reese: I guess it depends on who I'm talking to - John Baum or John Connor?
- John Connor: Baum is just a name.
- Pyle: Sir - we heard you were in the war; heard you've seen action.
- Derek Reese: Yeah. Yeah, I've seen action in the war.
- Pyle: Got a lot of kills?
- Derek Reese: Say again?
- Pyle: Kills, sir. I wanna go infantry as soon as I get out of here - maybe rangers, maybe delta. Best of the best!
- Derek Reese: Best of the best. Counting kills, like it's a game. Like it's just a game. I remember one particularly fun day: A guy in my squad got his stomach blasted open in a fire fight. He spent six hours, holding his own guts in. His buddy carried him on his back to the nearest aid station, just praying that someone could put the dumb son of a bitch together again. The game, Pyle... the game is played with your buddy's life - with the life of your squad, your platoon. The game is played by you, on behalf of the whole damned human race!
- [Sarah locks and controls all doors and windows]
- Marty Bedell: Do you do this every night?
- Sarah Connor: Yeah.
- Marty Bedell: What happens when you go to sleep?
- [opens the door for Cameron, who walks in loading a rifle]
- Sarah Connor: She happens.
- Nelson: So, this valve supposedly blew open because of metal fatigue. Okay, not likely, but let's grant Mother Nature that one. So how the hell did it force itself closed?
- James Ellison: Okay. How strong would you have to be to force it open and push it back?
- Nelson: Scale of one to ten - Superman!
- [Plant manager and a hot lady from the bar are making out outside]
- Nelson: [He stops cause he's out of breath] That never happened before.
- Catherine Weaver: That's okay sweaty...
- [her head shoots down his throat, choaking him, and then comes out and becomes Weaver]
- Catherine Weaver: I'll bet that never happened before either!
