Quotes 

• Dr. Rudy Wells : [showing filmed footage of Maxamillion in action]  Lab animals are a fact of life in research science, Jaime. It's thankless, it's sometimes inhumane, but necessary.

  Oscar Goldman : Max was critically injured in a chemical lab fire six years ago. A tragic story, but a happy ending. Rudy was testing his bionic prototype and Max was just the strong-willed animal that we were looking for.

  Jaime Sommers : [watching Maxamillion jump]  Oh, boy.

  Dr. Rudy Wells : It's a simple case of being in the right place at the right time.

  Jaime Sommers : Just like me.

  Oscar Goldman : Not quite, babe. Max only cost a million.

  Jaime Sommers : Yeah, I know. Max-a-million.

  Oscar Goldman : Was I that obvious? I thought it was a good idea.

• Dr. Rudy Wells : What gives you the right, the unmitigated gall to jeopardize a top secret project like that? Do you know what could have happened?

  Jaime Sommers : [about Max]  He's all right, I can prove it.

  Dr. Rudy Wells : How? Look at him: he can't even raise his head, let alone run bionically.

• Jaime Sommers : [narrating]  Dear Oscar, I know that what I'm doing may seem foolish to you. I'm sorry, and I hope that someday, you'll understand.

  [sighs] 

  Jaime Sommers : Max and I are going someplace safe, away from you and away from people. Now, if Rudy is right and Max *is* rejecting his bionics, then it's only right that he has me to help him through it. He deserves a chance, Oscar. I hope someone's there to do the same thing for me when it's my turn. Give Jim and Helen my love and tell them I'll call soon. I'll be okay. We'll both be okay. I know it. Love, Jaime.

• Jaime Sommers : How did I do?

  Dr. Rudy Wells : Not every well I'm afraid. Probably just out of shape.

  Jaime Sommers : Out of shape?

  [Jamie lifts a barbell one-handed] 

  Jaime Sommers : Ahem. Ahem! Does this look like a woman out of shape to you?

  Dr. Rudy Wells : Put it down.

• Jaime Sommers : [to Rudy]  What are you gonna do when I start to reject? Are you gonna put me away too?

• Jaime Sommers : Hey, stop that. What in the world are you doing to that dog? The bar's gotta be 8 feet high.

  Animal Handler : Who are you? How did you get in?

  Jaime Sommers : My question first, please.

  Crosby : Uh, lady, you wouldn't understand. Besides, this is a Grade 6 area. So why don't you leave?

  Jaime Sommers : I happen to be a Grade 6. Do you have any idea how obnoxious those whistles of yours are? I ought to report you guys to the ASPCA.

• Jaime Sommers : Why are you doing this to him? He can't jump over that?

  [has a flashback looking at the treadmill and weight machine] 

  Jaime Sommers : Or can he? Maximilian. A mill... You're a bionic dog.
