Quotes 

• Jefferson Jackson : I really wish I had better news about Sara, but she's still in a coma thanks to Damien Darhk's daughter laying her out.

  Ray Palmer : Well, in the meantime, we could do what we do best and fix a few anachronisms.

  Mick Rory : How about you just drop me off on an island full of beautiful women like Zari did with that Helen chick.

  Zari Tomaz : Rory, you weren't supposed to say anything.

  Amaya Jiwe : Wait, you didn't take Helen back to Troy where she belongs?

  Zari Tomaz : That's what the Time Bureau does. But we... we do something different.

  Nate Heywood : No, we do it different... ly.

  Nate Heywood : Yeah, more messy.

  Zari Tomaz : Okay, if you look at the historical record, the Trojan War happens with or without Helen. See? No anachronism.

  Ray Palmer : How do you think the captain would feel about you re-engingeering time?

• Mick Rory : Too many trees. Too many plants.

  Nate Heywood : We'll be back on concrete in no time.

  Mick Rory : [swatting his head]  Bugs! Flies.

  Nate Heywood : What is going on with you? You're grumpier than usual.

  Mick Rory : What? I'm in a good mood.

  Nate Heywood : Is it because I made your boots too big? Look, I forget you've got small feet, and why would you not want to come to Vietnam? This place was, like, made for you.

• Nate Heywood : We need to get out of this jungle ASAP.

  Ray Palmer : Oh, no. What's wrong, buddy?

  Nate Heywood : Well, when Mick and I started, we were doing "Predator". Then we ran into Mick's dad, and now we're doing "Apocalypse Now".

• Nate Heywood : Everything okay? You're hitting the bag like it's insulting your mother, and you haven't said anything for, like, thirty minutes.

  Amaya Jiwe : What is there to say?

  Nate Heywood : I don't know. Talk about your granddaughter? And not the superhero, either. The psycho water witch.

  Amaya Jiwe : The who?

  Nate Heywood : Your granddaughter. I mean, I'm sure she's really not that bad.

  Amaya Jiwe : You just called her a psycho water witch.

  Nate Heywood : Yeah, and I instantly regret it.

• Nate Heywood : Oof. Vietnam. 1967. Also known as the height of the Vietnam War. Gideon, what kind of anachronism are we dealing with?

  Gideon : A level eight. Scans of the historical record reveal redacted Pentagon reports about a creature of unknown origin attacking American and Vietcong soldiers in the jungle. Dozens have disappeared without a trace.

  Mick Rory : No way I'm going to 'Nam.

  Amaya Jiwe : All I know is that if American soldiers are being targeted, I am ready to do my duty.

  Nate Heywood : This war's a little different. Unlike World War II, the military objectives in Vietnam weren't so cut and dry.

  Zari Tomaz : Yeah, it was controversial, and the reasons for getting involved were murky. You know, come to think about it, this team should be right at home.

• Nate Heywood : Look, I'm sorry you have to see your father, but you need to suck it up.

  Mick Rory : If it wasn't for this time traveling stuff, I would've never run into that bastard.

  Nate Heywood : Okay, you know what? We're changing this operation. This has become Operation Tough Love. Yeah, I'm gonna go all Dr. Phil on your ass. It's time for you to man up and sort out...

  Mick Rory : Daddy issues.

  Nate Heywood : I was gonna say "unresolved grief", but let's go with what you're saying.

  Mick Rory : You want to know why I've never seen a shrink?

  Nate Heywood : Why?

  Mick Rory : I don't regret killing my old man.

  Nate Heywood : What?

  Mick Rory : That's right, Pretty. You heard me. I let my old man burn to death. How's that for tough love?

• Nate Heywood : Do you know what's on your father's head?

  Mick Rory : A little Frenchy hat.

  Nate Heywood : That is a Green Beret. President Kennedy called them "a symbol of excellence, a badge of courage."

  Mick Rory : Courage?

  Nate Heywood : Yeah.

  Mick Rory : The only thing my old man was good at was sitting in a chair. Cigarette in one hand, beer in the other. And the only time he ever got up was to...

  Nate Heywood : [he lets the sentence hang]  No, Mick, come on. Come on, come on. This is good, this is good. Look, thanks to time travel, I got to talk to my grandfather, and I got to work out a lot of my father issues.

• Nate Heywood : Ray? Jax? Can you hear me? I think there's something up with Mick. He's got that look, you know, when his eyes get all crazed. I think the jungle's finally getting to...

  [bumping into Rory] 

  Nate Heywood : Hey, man. You good?

• Nate Heywood : Amaya.

  Amaya Jiwe : Nathaniel.

  Dick Rory : Shut up.

  Nate Heywood : Are you okay?

  Amaya Jiwe : Mick?

  [he ignores her] 

  Amaya Jiwe : Mick. What's wrong with him?

  Nate Heywood : I'm afraid he's gone full Kurtz.

  Amaya Jiwe : What does that mean?

  Nate Heywood : It's a movie reference. Great movie, terrible situation.
