- Major General: It costs nearly a billion dollars just to turn the lights on around here.
- Jack O'Neill: How 'bout a bake sale? Yard sale? Garage...?
- Major General: This is what I look like when I'm not laughing, Colonel.
- Jack O'Neill: Car wash?
- Dr. Daniel Jackson: Senator, we have reason to believe that the Goa'uld are about to launch an attack, in force, in ships.
- Senator Robert Kinsey: Then I think they'll regret taking on the United States military.
- Jack O'Neill: Oh, for God's sake!
- Dr. Daniel Jackson: Oh, you're right. We'll - we'll just upload a computer virus into the mothership.
- Senator Robert Kinsey: If they're so strong, why did ya switch sides in the first place?
- Teal'c: Because, what is right cannot be measured by strength.
- Samantha Carter: Daniel, when you were in this alternate reality, were there differences?
- Dr. Daniel Jackson: Yes. Uh, Teal'c was leading the attack on Earth, I wasn't even part of the program, you and Jack were engaged to be married...
- Jack O'Neill: Excuse me?
- Samantha Carter: What... okay, uh, even if you did actually experience this alternate reality, doesn't the very fact that there were differences mean that we won't face the same fate?
- Dr. Daniel Jackson: Yes. But the defining event, the death of Ra, took place in both worlds.
- Teal'c: An attack of retribution.
- Dr. Daniel Jackson: Yes. And the same thing is gonna happen here unless we stop it.
- Jack O'Neill: All right. Wait a minute. Let - let me get something straight here. Engaged?
- Samantha Carter: It is theoretically possible.
- Jack O'Neill: It's against regulations.
- Samantha Carter: I'm talking physics, sir.
- Dr. Daniel Jackson: Now, I know this is hard for you guys to believe, but I swear to you the entire time you thought I had disappeared on P3R-233, I was experiencing an alternate reality.
- Jack O'Neill: And you were there, and you were there, and there's no place like home.
- Senator Robert Kinsey: Do you know how much this program costs?
- Jack O'Neill: Seven-ish?
- Senator Robert Kinsey: Seven billion four hundred and seven million dollars.
- Jack O'Neill: Give or take.
- Dr. Daniel Jackson: Senator, they are coming.
- Senator Robert Kinsey: Then I say, let them come!
- Jack O'Neill: Where do you get this bureaucratic bull? You're talking suicide!
- Senator Robert Kinsey: Colonel O'Neill, you underestimate this great nation.
- Teal'c: It is you that underestimate the enemy, we have challenged Apophis, he will not rest until the people of the world worship him as their god.
- Senator Robert Kinsey: There is only ONE God, sir! And I do not believe for one moment that he will allow what you're trying to tell me come to pass, we are after all, one nation, under God.
- Jack O'Neill: And you think... God is going to save us?
- Teal'c: The Goa'uld believe they are gods. And your beliefs will not dissuade them.
- Senator Robert Kinsey: If the Goa'uld do come, then we will be able to tell them that we have buried our gate under the ground forever, and that we will never go through it again. If they challenge us then we shall prevail.
- Dr. Daniel Jackson: You are a fool.
- Major General George Hammond: Senator Kinsey is chairman of the Appropriations Committee. He's demanded to know what's behind the line item the Pentagon refers to as Area 52.
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: That would be the Stargate.
- Senator Robert Kinsey: [Upon seeing the Stargate for the first time] And this must be the drain through which the money flows.
- Lt. Colonel Bert Samuels: [Senator Kinsey has just announced that he is closing the Stargate program] For what it's worth, I'm sorry that it had to end this way.
- Major General: [Yelling] GET OUT OF HERE!
