Topa: Father, can I be done now?
Bortus: No, finish your plokta. Remember, if you do not eat, you will die.

Grayson: Bortus, you look good for a guy who's been cooked.
Bortus: Thank you, sir. I feel quite well.

First Minister Theace: Make a life out there with Nathius. A beautiful life among the stars.
Husband: All the days we'll never have.
First Minister Theace: Your heart is full of the days we did. That's what you take with you.

Isaac: I am curious to know how [sex] feels.
Bortus: It is a call from deep within like a baby seeking its mother's teat. It feels as though nothing else in the world matters but satisfying the urge and achieving the goal my body has demanded of me. Then, as quickly as it began, it is complete, leaving a worn-out shell in its wake. And the only feeling I am left with, the only thing I know is that a death has occurred.
Isaac: I see. It is prudent that you are in therapy.

Grayson: How bad?
Malloy: Like, ouch-I-got-a-sunburn bad or I-just-opened-the-ark-of-the-covenant bad?
LaMarr: The Ark. Like, melty-faced awfulness.

Malloy: It's okay, dude, everybody does it sometimes. I went to town on myself this morning. That's why I look so relaxed right now.
Grayson: God, this whole ship is gross.

Dr. Finn: Porn addiction is a disease just like any other so we need to treat his condition with compassion and understanding.
Bortus: Is there an injection I can receive to cure this disease?
Klyden: You have had enough injections.

Dr. Finn: Couple's counseling helps married people, such as yourselves, discuss and resolve conflicts with the goal of improving your long-term relationship. I'm here to guide that process.
Bortus: Will we select our own weapons?
Dr. Finn: No, that's not how it works.

Dr Finn: Do either of you understand why you're here?
Bortus: Because the Captain has ordered it.
Dr. Finn: Technically, yes. But do you know why the Captain has ordered you to attend couple's counseling?
Klyden: So I do not stab Bortus again.
Dr. Finn: That is one of our goals, yes.

Kitan: It looks so sad and lonely.
Isaac: The penchant for biological lifeforms to anthropomorphize inanimate objects is irrational. I am quite certain the planet is unaware of its solitary status.
