Quotes 

• Nate Heywood : See, the anachronisms form a pattern.

  Dr. Martin Stein : I should have guessed. Though time may be broken, like all matter in the known universe, it still possesses a mathematical harmony.

  Jefferson Jackson : Not exactly. What about those two?

  Nate Heywood : Those two are outliers. First one, Seattle, 2042.

  Zari Tomaz : When the assassin tried to kill me.

  Nate Heywood : Right. While cool - not the part where, you know, you almost got killed - it's not as cool as the other one. London, 1895. How do I say this? There's a vampire. Half-dozen men snatched off the streets, only to have their bodies dumped three days later completely drained of blood.

  Mick Rory : [brandishing a stake]  Vampires. Waited my whole life to kill one.

  Jefferson Jackson : Do you just carry that around all the time?

  Mick Rory : My whole life.

• Sara Lance : Victorian London. Opium dens and low-cut corsets.

  Nate Heywood : Arthur Conan Doyle and the rolling fog.

  Mick Rory : Syphilis, whores, and vampires.

  Jefferson Jackson : That's a strong smell of garlic.

  Mick Rory : It's tied around my neck.

  Sara Lance : Yeah, you're a regular Van Helsing.

  Nate Heywood : That's from "Dracula".

  Mick Rory : I'm reading it. Don't tell me the end.

• Gideon : Shock missiles away, Captain.

  Nate Heywood : Oh, this is gonna suck so bad.

  Jefferson Jackson : Uh, Gray, if we're gonna die, I don't want us to go out mad at each other. So, uh, I can't remember what for, but I'm sorry.

  Dr. Martin Stein : You were just thinking of me. Actually, I should be thanking you.

  Ray Palmer : Aww. Who wants to hold hands?

  Nate Heywood : Ray, it's not freaking "Toy Story 3".

  Mick Rory : Everyone shut up. I got one page left.

• Ray Palmer : You sure you want to do this? Break up Firestorm?

  Jefferson Jackson : Well, I'm sure Gray wants off the ship, and I'm sure that can't happen if we're still bonded to each other, so...

  Ray Palmer : Yeah, but your bond isn't just physical. You guys have been psychically bonded for over three years.

  Jefferson Jackson : Yeah, and it's been no picinic, let me tell you. Last time I got laid, afterwards Gray said to me "Well done, Jefferson." I mean...!

  Ray Palmer : Could have done without knowing that.

• Ray Palmer : Does Gray... I mean Marty, know that you wanna break up with him?

  Jefferson Jackson : No clue. But if he did, he'd say it was too dangerous.

  Ray Palmer : Well, if you're really determined to do this, severing your psychic connection could give us some much-needed mental space to figure out how to untie the nuclear knot.

  Jefferson Jackson : Well, let's do it.

  Ray Palmer : Okay. Here goes.

  [injecting Jax with a needle] 

  Ray Palmer : Oh, I forgot. There... there might be a... a couple side effects.

  Jefferson Jackson : What side effects?

  Ray Palmer : Um... just, like, you know, facial swelling, maybe a little gastrointestinal upset. Uh... oh, and short-term memory loss. How do you feel?

  Jefferson Jackson : Uh... normal. Except, uh, I'm not craving grapefruit.

  Ray Palmer : Okay?

  Jefferson Jackson : Ray! It's 9:00 a.m. and I'm not craving grapefruit!

  Dr. Martin Stein : [cut to the galley, where Stein is eating half a grapefruit]  Mm. Delightful!

• Orphan : Another vampire victim found dead in the street.

  [Mick grabs the paper] 

  Orphan : Oi! Give me that!

  Jefferson Jackson : Whoa, vampires? What the hell is he talking about?

  Ray Palmer : The blood-sucking creatures that we're here hunting.

  [realizing] 

  Ray Palmer : Oh, no! Short-term memory loss. One of the side effects of the serum.

• Coroner : Who are you lot?

  Nate Heywood : Oi. Scotland Yard. We're here to see about these so-called vampire attacks.

  Sara Lance : And we're with the NYPD.

  Jefferson Jackson : Nothing like a bit of cooperation from across the pond, right?

  Nate Heywood : Right.

  Ray Palmer : This one of the victims?

  Coroner : Unlucky devil.

  [Mick steps forward and stakes the victim in the heart] 

  Nate Heywood : Whoa, whoa! Mick!

  Mick Rory : You don't want him coming back to life, do you?

• Ray Palmer : Since we can't hack the watch for its GPS data, we're gonna have to solve this the old-fashioned way. With fingerprints.

  Jefferson Jackson : Okay, we got the coroner's fingerprints.

  Ray Palmer : Uh-huh. And the second one is mine, obviously, and the third one is unidentifiable, and the fourth one is...

  [surprised by the result] 

  Ray Palmer : Oliver Queen?

  Jefferson Jackson : Oliver's a time-traveling vampire from the future?

  Ray Palmer : We got to call Team Arrow, figure out what the heck's going on.

• Jefferson Jackson : Gray, don't take this out on Ray. He was just helping me figure out a way we could, uh... break up Firestorm. So that you could go home, and I could stay on the ship.

  Dr. Martin Stein : Oh, I see.

  Jefferson Jackson : So are you cool with this?

  Dr. Martin Stein : [sarcastic]  Why wouldn't I be? After all, you've only been... been here tinkering in secret with how to split up a walking, talking, living nuclear reactor. Of couse I'm cool with it.

  Jefferson Jackson : Okay.

  Dr. Martin Stein : After everything we've been through, how could you attempt something of this magnitude behind my back?

• Dr. Martin Stein : It's Mr. Hunter.

  Nate Heywood : What's he done?

  [a protective steel shield covers the Waverider] 

  Ray Palmer : All the exits are locked.

  Jefferson Jackson : And I can't override the command.

  Sara Lance : Damn it, Rip.

  Mick Rory : Told you we should never have trusted the Englishman.

  Amaya Jiwe : Where's Zari?

• Jefferson Jackson : Our coordinates say we're right above the Order.

  Sara Lance : Prepare the shock missiles.

  Mick Rory : [reading "Dracula"]  Three pages left.

  Amaya Jiwe : What are you doing? Zari's in there.

  Sara Lance : I need you to target the cargo bay.

  Ray Palmer : Our cargo bay?

  Nate Heywood : Shouldn't we have a team vote first?

  Sara Lance : If anybody has a better idea how to get the ship open, now's the time. Trust me, Jax. Fire.

• Jefferson Jackson : [sharing a grapefruit with Stein]  Mm. Not bad. A little tart.

  Dr. Martin Stein : If you can believe it, Clarissa prefers to eat her grapefruit...

  Jefferson Jackson : With salt. Yeah, I remember.

  Dr. Martin Stein : How...

  Jefferson Jackson : I got Ray to restore our psychic connection. I can feel how much you're missing your family. Ever since baby Ronnie was born, it's only gotten worse. It's like there's a hole in my chest.

  Dr. Martin Stein : I'm so sorry. I never expected the birth of my grandson would make being away that much more painful. And I certainly never wanted you to share this burden. But with this new Mallus threat, and the return of Damien Darhk, the team needs Firestorm more than ever.

  Jefferson Jackson : Yeah, and the team can get Firestorm, and you can go home, if we can stabilize the matrix into my body.

  Dr. Martin Stein : T.S. Eliot once said "Only those who risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go." So, when do we start?

  Jefferson Jackson : As soon as I, uh, fix that giant hole in the cargo bay.

  Dr. Martin Stein : Well, good luck with that.
