  • "Yes, we are very lucky kids to not have had our flesh eaten by the aliens."
  • Every time Seth or Sara address Jack as "Jack Bruno!"
  • "Experience your car trouble in the morning, when we're open."
  • The moment Jack removes the Siphon's mask, and he gets to see what's underneath.
    "You looked better with the mask on"
  • Every single time Pope asks for a gun.
  • Sara watching a live performance at the UFO convention.
    Sara: Is this a re-enactment of an important incident in human history?
  • "A wise human once said, you are what you think you are." "Then why not ask him?!" "It was the Buddha. He's unavailable."
  • "Don't go in the pimped-out fridge, Jack."
  • This scene in the UFO;
    Jack: You do know how to fly this thing, right?
    Seth: How do you think we got here?
    Jack: Well, you crashed, remember?
  • Jack and Sara'a first meeting with Junkyard the dog.
  • Sara generally getting her way, such as using her powers to allow the dog to hitch a ride, and then getting Jack to pull over so the dog can take a leak.
    • What really makes the latter scene funny is the conversation Sara and Jack have after Junkyard gets back from using the bushes - and the look on Sara'a face as she darts back into the cab. It's especially hilarious when you consider that Sara's a telepath - so she knows exactly what's on Jack's mind.
  • Jack explaining to a couple of people mocking Dr. Friedman how something is a matter of life and death.
    Jack: You're currently alive. Unless you take us to Harlan, you'll be dead.
  • The comment that Sara makes about how Jack and Alex have been thinking about each other. Again, when you consider the fact that she's a telepath, the way she remains calm as she sees stuff in their minds is funny.
  • Those two Stormtroopers dudes.
    Stormtrooper 1: Imperial droid. Drive your Geonisan starfighters to planet... Hollywood! Hahaha! (Jack quickly takes their fake laser guns away from them)
    • Later:
    Stormtrooper 1: Well, well, well. If it isn't the rebel alliance cab driver scum!
    Stormtrooper 2: Not such a tough guy outside of your ship, Whomp rat! (Jack takes their fake laser guns from them again, and uses them to beat up his captors)
  • "You know what aliens look like. They look like, like little green people with antennas and, and laser guns and, Take me to your leader, Earthlings."
    • Yes Jack, that exactly what aliens are like.
  • Jack and Alex trying to see Dr. Harlan, but his assistants Marty and Matt won't let them.
    Marty: Doctor Harlan is presently unavailable for consultations. We're more than qualified to answer any...
    Alex Friedman: There is no time for that, it's a matter of life and death that we see Harlan now!
    Marty: Life and death, ooh uber scary drama queen theatrics! What's the 411 Sitch?
    Jack: You're currently alive. Unless you take us to Harlan, you'll be dead.
    Marty: Okay, yeah, together if you want.
    Matt: Yeah, let's go together right now.
