Quotes 

• [Eugene wakes up as Abraham apologizes to him] 

  Dr. Eugene Porter : Do you apologize for questioning my skills?

  Sgt. Abraham Ford : I apologize for questioning your skills. You know how to bite a dick, Eugene. I mean that with the utmost of respect. Welcome to stage two.

  Dr. Eugene Porter : Don't welcome me. I've been here for a while.

• [Dwight makes his demands with Rosita, Daryl, and Eugene] 

  Dwight : Well, Rosita... it's not what I want. It's what you and Daryl are going to do. You're gonna let us into your little complex. It looks like it's just beautiful in there. And then you're gonna let us take whatever and whoever we want... or we blow Eugene's brains out. And then yours. And then his. I hope it doesn't come to that, really. Nobody else has to die. We just try and start with one. You know... maximum impact to get our point across. So what's it gonna be? You tell me.

  Dr. Eugene Porter : You wanna kill someone, you start with our companion hiding over there behind the oil barrels. He's a first-class A-hole and he deserves it so much more than us three.

• [Abraham makes a comment about Eugene's new hairstyle] 

  Sgt. Abraham Ford : I see you've tied back your Tennessee waterfall there.

  Dr. Eugene Porter : I won't lie. I liked it. I may very well miss it. The feeling of the billowy curtain catching the breeze some days was straight-up bliss. But brass tacks - The hair doesn't make the man, the man makes the man.

  Sgt. Abraham Ford : Guard duty, weapon training, changing up the hairstyle, swigging some swagger with the ladies, spitting game...

  Dr. Eugene Porter : If you don't spit game you are game.

• [Eugene and Abraham arrive at the machine shop] 

  Sgt. Abraham Ford : You about ready to spill the pintos on what the hell it is we're doing here? Eugene.

  Dr. Eugene Porter : [Eugene looks to Abraham]  We're gonna manufacture bullets here. I've been chewing the cud on this for a few days now. The Hilltop's dry, our supply's finite. So not only are bullets vital for defense, but per the law of supply and demand, a full cartridge is now the coin of the land.

  Sgt. Abraham Ford : Making bullets from scratch.

  Dr. Eugene Porter : Spent casings, but the innards are all us. And by us, I mean me.

  Sgt. Abraham Ford : And you think you can do that... here? With just this?

  Dr. Eugene Porter : Well, the digs well require a thorough scrubbing. We'll have to scare up a hella ton of lead, but, yes. I most definitely almost certainly think I can do that here.

  Sgt. Abraham Ford : That, my friend, is some damn fine genuine outside-the-box thinking.

• [Eugene and Abraham argue about the walker Abraham kills to save Eugene's life] 

  Dr. Eugene Porter : I had full control of the situation.

  Sgt. Abraham Ford : You had better luck picking up a turd by its clean end.

  Dr. Eugene Porter : I'm gonna allow you to apologize for saying that. So how about you do so right now?

  Sgt. Abraham Ford : Jimmy down there almost ate your face, dumbass.

• [Eugene defends his survival skills to Abraham's questioning] 

  Dr. Eugene Porter : It's simple, really. As with any RPG, tabletop, electronic, or otherwise, the key to survival is to allow oneself to be shaped by the assigned environment. In doing so, a broad range of capabilities are acquired, allowing one to flip the script and use said capabilities to shape said environment to maximum longevity. I'm saying I'm in the process of said step two. I've changed, adapted, I'm a survivor.

  Sgt. Abraham Ford : Keep telling yourself that.

• [Eugene opens a door with a lock-pick] 

  Dr. Eugene Porter : Standard pin and tumbler. Tick-tick-click, easy-peasy.
