The Unit, Season 2

Mack:
(while putting his medals back on his uniform) A man won't sell you his life, but he'll trade it to you for a little piece of ribbon.

Kim:
(smiling) How do you walk with all that trash on your chest?

Mack:
I don't know, I ain't done it in years.

Mack:
When you're in you're a guest, when you're out you're a pest.

Jonas:
(to Molly about working for Blackthorn) You do what you have to but I ain't going to be your cheering squad.

(A trainee misses the blue chicken he was aiming for in shooting practice.)

Bob:
The Nazis got your mom.

Trainee:
(nodding head) Do it like my life depended on it.

Bob:
No, I want you to do it like my life depended on it. As one day indeed it may.

(Bob Brown stands up and shoots the blue chicken the trainee was aiming for.)

(Jonas shoots the enemy leader)

Jonas:
Yeah, I bet that hurt.

Annette:
(To Bob) I was with Billy four years, I know what you do, how you do it. Can you get my kids back? Huh? Can you give me some rough justice?

Brown:
As it says in the Bible. ' Harm no chicken but thine own.'

Jonas:
We've got gophers! Let's flush them out.

Jonas:
Cargo intact? The FBI gonna wanna talk to him.

Mack:
He's intact, he's awful quiet.

Jonas:
Just lost his girl and his hobby in the space of an hour, he's had a rough day.

(to Vince, who he is trying to rescue from drowning)

Bob:
Just my luck...you're a marine.

(After finding a group of seniors abandoned in the hospital)

Bob:
Snake doctor, we have a problem.

(at the protest lecture)

Tiffy:
Somebody thinks I offended him, I suppose he can give me a call. He comes into my house in the middle of the night with a butcher knife, I'm gonna shoot him dead because I have a family to defend. Is this so foreign to your way of thinking?

Christine:
The bible says "Thou shalt not kill."

Tiffy:
Yeah, well I guess our opponents missed that part.

Kim:
(looking at the jeep to be restored) Well?

Parker:
Restored, street legal, showroom fresh. Any man Jack in this man's army would fight to pay ten grand to take it home and call it Muffy.

Parker:
What the hell do you think you're doing?!

Private:
(standing quickly to attention) Taking a break, Sergeant!

Parker:
The hell you are! You will take a break when you are discharged from this service, killed in action or I say so, whichever comes first!

Bob:
I'd rather have a sister in a whorehouse than a brother in the Navy.

Charlotte:
(to Kim) Do you expect me to, in effect, explain myself to you?

Bob:
(laughing) Ryan asks what your wife would say if she knew. And Top said, "Well, sir, I'd tell her, 'Woman, now that's getting into my personal life. And you know how I like to keep my personal life separate from my married life.'"

Jonas:
Repeat the lesson back to me.

Brown:
Best way to get yourself out of a jam: confess to something illegal, immoral, or embarrassing.

Jonas:
You're a quick study.

Jonas:
Wait. Blue 6, what were today's instructions?

Bob/Blue 6:
Formation 0600 hours. Uniform, (huffs) boots, fatigues, 40-pound ruck sack. :meals: one MRE.

Jonas:
Stop. Repeat that last instruction.

Bob/Blue 6:
(After brief pause)

Meals:
one MRE.

Jonas:
You think that meant one MRE for the entire day, that we're trying to starve you?

Bob/Blue 6:
Yes, Sergeant Major.

Jonas:
(looks at Red 2) Red 2. Have you understood the instructions?

Red 2:
Yes, Sergeant Major.

Jonas:
Would you explain them to the other candidate?

Red 2:
One MRE for each meal – breakfast, lunch and dinner. That's three. (grins)

Jonas:
Well, you're wrong, Red 2 and you're out. Blue 6, you may proceed. (blows whistle)

Bob:
So, I just passed Selection?

Jonas:
You have now. (brief pause) Welcome to the Unit.

Ilona:
Why did this happen?

Bob:
Y is a crooked letter; nobody ever got it straight.

Congressman Gelber:
I'd like some answers.

Ryan:
Sir, my job and the job of my men is to protect and to defend the interests of this country, as determined by the executive branch. It is not my job to make nor to influence policy. If you disagree with specific mission objectives, I strongly suggest you address your concerns to someone higher in the chain of command.

Congressman Gelber:
So what you're saying is you're just gonna sit there all afternoon and stonewall.

Ryan:
Frankly, sir, yes sir, I am, sir.

Neil:
Oh, now don't pull that crap with me. I did three terms on the House Sub-Committee for Military Affairs.

Ryan:
Congressman Reynolds, right? Middle of Texas, wasn't it? 11th District?

Krinsman:
That is correct.

Ryan:
Any oil in those parts?

Neil:
What's that supposed to mean?

Ryan:
Let's just say I like to know who I work for.

Ryan:
Do I abort the mission?

Neil:
Let's not pretend here. You and I both know how this works. We manage up. Our job is to protect the people we work for.

Ryan:
And here I thought our job was to protect the country.

Jonas:
Is that the real guy?

Mack:
What?

Jonas:
The real Zjhokar?

Mack:
Real as rain.

Jonas:
The man was Bin Laden fifteen years ago. What are you doing handing him back?

Mack:
It's what the other side wanted for Christmas.

Jonas:
The State Department know about this?

Brown:
No, but the Air Force does.

Mack:
Left them a present.

(They watch as a missile takes out the terrorists' jeep)

Jonas:
He didn't believe in Christmas anyway.

Commander Shelov:
Why did Georgian forces and your American government work together? Perhaps you tell me.

Jonas:
Friend, I'm no policy-maker. I'm a soldier sent here to look for terrorists. (looks up at Shelov) Seen any? [Shelov tasers Jonas]

Ryan:
(to Krinsman) I've got my friends, sir. I am perfectly content to have you as an enemy.

Jonas:
I said you had two apologies to make. What are they?

Darryl:
I have to apologize to my wife.

Jonas:
And?... And, son?

Darryl:
I have to apologize to God.

Jonas:
Just make sure the senator stays in her hotel.

Bob:
I will use all my powers of persuasion. If that doesn't work, I'll hit her in the head.

President:
(Referring to General Raja) And the man, how did you find him?

Jonas:
Smart, charismatic, a leader.

President:
But?!

Jonas:
I wouldn't go hunting with him, sir.

President:
I have to thank you for exceeding my expectations.

Jonas:
How's that, sir?

President:
The Senator's kidnapping. You gave me a pretext. To either support the coup or if I sit out, it's already made the government there a whole lot more obedient.

Jonas:
Just trying to keep the fine Senator out of harm's way.

President:
Well, well done.

General Raja:
Tell me, Mr. Green. What will you report to your President?

Jonas:
That you are an impeccable host.

Jonas:
On your list of requests, I don't see election officials or ballot boxes.

General Raja:
The most suitable aid would be M4 machine guns and C-130 transport planes.

Raja's Aide:
Which you can secure through your Anti-Terrorist Activities Fund.

General Raja:
Security first, then elections.

Tiffy:
Either you're getting too much sex or not enough.

Kim:
Only in my dreams.

Tiffy:
Where was your husband last night, as you were dreaming of our husbands?

Kim:
Not in my bed, all night at the office.

Colonel Ryan:
(to Bob) Your daughter just sold you out.
