Quotes 

• Kent : And I suppose you're in on this too. Did you make this stuff?

  'Ick' Ikagami : I'm not saying.

  Kent : Well who's gonna clean it up?

  'Ick' Ikagami : You won't have to. It's gonna go from solid form directly to gas.

  Kent : Whoa! Really? What is it?

  'Ick' Ikagami : I'm not sayin', but I can tell you it's fairly rare and very unstable.

  Chris Knight : [glances at Kent]  Just like you.

• Mitch : [as he helps a hallway sledder up from a crash]  Are you okay?

  Jordan : [Removing helmet and talking rapidly]  No, not emotionally, no I'm not. I'm disappointed, not terribly, but still. It should have gone much further much faster. It's okay, though, I know what the problem is. It's obviously the drag coefficient. I'll just have to redesign the blades. I can do that no problem. I can do that here. But after they're designed I got to cut them and that takes tools and time. Do you know how long this stuff is supposed to last?

  'Ick' Ikagami : Maybe another half an hour?

  Jordan : Oh that's great, that's good, I can do that no problem. Okay, what's your name?

  Mitch : Mitch.

  Jordan : Oh, thank you for your help, Mitch. Okay I'll see you later.

  Mitch : [as she's leaving]  You're welcome!

  Mitch : [to Ick as Jordan rushes back]  Who was that?

  'Ick' Ikagami : That? Oh, that was...

  Jordan : I'm Jordan. I forgot to tell you my name, I'm Jordan. I heard there was going to be someone new this term. Are you it?

  Mitch : Yeah.

  Jordan : Do you have a bed?

  Mitch : Yeah.

  [a surprised look hits Mitch's face as his mind registers the question] 

  Jordan : [not missing a beat]  Oh. I was going to make you one if you didn't have one, but you have one. Okay, bye.

• [last lines] 

  'Ick' Ikagami : Do you think it's getting weird around here?

  Chris Knight : Absolutely.

  Jordan : I didn't notice.

  Mitch : I like it.

• 'Ick' Ikagami : It worked!

  Mitch : That's neat!

  'Ick' Ikagami : Now if we can just keep it from exploding!

  Kent : Explo-?

  [rushes into his room] 

  Chris Knight : Hey Ick, you were just kidding about exploding, right?

  [starts to notice no one else is there any longer] 

  Chris Knight : Ick? It's a joke, right?
