    "Pilot" 
"Ready for a story about super heroes? Ugh, more TV superheroes, just what the world needs. Be honest, have you hung yourself yet? Or what if I told you this was actually a story about super zeroes, losers, achingly pathetic meta-human goose eggs. How about it? Ready to feel better about your own miserable lives for the next hour or so? Follow me."
— Mister Nobody

Rita Farr: Chief's a good man. Maybe a little odd, maybe a little vague, but it comes from a good place. Me, I'll always tell you the truth. The Chief told you the world assumes you're dead. Did he tell you that's because the only part he was able to save of you was your brain?
Cliff Steele: ...no?
Rita: Which means we need to talk about expectations: what you really, really want.
Cliff: ...I wanna go home.
Rita: And then... we need to take those expectations, we need to give them a gentle pat... and flush them into the ocean.

    "Donkey Patrol" 
Mister Nobody: Alas, our merry band of misfits were not equipped for grand acts of heroism just yet. That was a finesse that dear old daddy hadn't bothered to teach them.
Niles Caulder: Who are you talking to?
Mister Nobody: Grant Morrison fans, Reddit trolls with DC subscriptions, and the three new fans who stuck around after the donkey fart.

"Once upon a time, my world was big and filled with monsters. But now the world is small...and I am the monster."
— Jane/Doctor Harrison

"Honey, I just traveled all the way from Jersey to Barcelona, cut open a priest, climbed inside him, and landed in a snow globe, and now I'm standing here talking to a friggin' robot man."
— Marilyn

Mother Archon: You think you can spit into the face of god?
Older Marilyn: Lady, the only god I worship is Springsteen and I've spat in his face twice.

    "Penultimate Patrol" 
Cliff Steele: What's a street doing in the middle of nowhere?
Larry Trainor: I'm sure they have a logical explanation.
Rita Farr: They?
Larry Trainor: Danny. Did I never mention a sentient, teleporting, gender-queer, street Vic and I hung out on when Jane lost her shit and tried to get married?
