Ming-Na Wen: Melinda May

Quotes 

• Melinda May : So, you never even questioned where you came from?

  Sarge : Why would I? I didn't know I had someone's face until I got here.

  Melinda May : And now that you do?

  Sarge : Well, I don't suddenly feel like a different person.

  Melinda May : These, um, echoes as she called them... they've gotten clearer - the memories?

  Sarge : I never used that word. It's always just been a sense - a feeling in my bones.

  Melinda May : You said that they all felt real.

  Sarge : What's real is the time I spent chasing Izel across the galaxy - with my crew, as myself.

  Melinda May : Trying to get revenge for something that never happened?

  Sarge : It's not like the lies you tell yourself are any more true. You want me to be someone I'm not.

  Melinda May : I never said that.

  Sarge : You didn't have to.

  Melinda May : I recognized you, yes. But can you really say that there's no part of you that recognizes us? If you have his memories, can feel what he felt, I'm hoping that you will...

  Sarge : I'm not the cure for your loneliness!

• Agent Piper : Uh... May? I think we might have a situation downstairs. Uh, did she quake him to death?

  Melinda May : I don't think that was the endgame.

  Agent Piper : W-What is this, some sort of new interrogation tactic?

  Melinda May : She's trying to wake up what's inside him. She thinks it knows about Izel.

  Agent Piper : No, bad idea. Bad idea. T-The last thing we need is another demon-thingy running around the base.

  Melinda May : No, this is different.

  Agent Piper : Izel wore my skin. She shot me, and then she killed Davis.

  Melinda May : Piper, I know this isn't easy, but I don't think Sarge would do that. Not after...

  Agent Piper : Is that a risk you really want to take?
