Quotes-The Convention
HUBBLE: I expect more from you than dumb-ass small-town threats.

SHERIFF:
That, deputy, was a bona fide alien hunter.

ISABEL:
I want to get the hell out of here. This place is psychologically damaging.

MICHAEL:
Hey, I've got no choice here. We've got cave paintings we don't understand. We've got Nasedo sending us messages. This place could hold the answers to everything.

ISABEL
: Yeah, I'm sure it's a real mecca for factual information.

ZINAPLOX:
I am Zinaplox from the planet Zedagon. I come to destroy humanity and return to my home planet.

LIZ:
Well, then it's really great that you're starting out with a nice hearty breakfast.

MAX: Michael, I've got to talk to you about something... personal.
MICHAEL: Nothing's too personal.
MAX: How'd you do it with Maria?
MICHAEL: Too personal.

MAX:
I can't stop thinking about Liz. Everytime I see her, she just starts going into slow motion.
MICHAEL: Maxwell, you've gotta be strong. You can't let yourself be led around by your...energy source.

MICHAEL:
It wasn't easy for me, either, but you gotta throw yourself into something else...anything else. Something just to get your mind off her.

MICHAEL
: I'm here trying to figure out the meaning of my existence, and I'm tired of having to wade through the kooks like you and the freak shows like this in order to do it.

AMY: Nothing personal, but this freak show keeps my kooky daughter and myself off the streets.
MARIA: Mom, Michael. Michael, mom.

FRAKES:
Well, I'm going to need a suite, too.
MAX: I don't think there are any.
FRAKES: No, the right reply would be "I'll take care of it, Mr. Frakes."

MILTON: You are looking at one of the few men in the world rumored to have made direct contact.

LIZ:
Larry and Jennifer are back. You know, the ones that were there the day that I got shot?

ISABEL
: You've gotta stop following me, Alex.
ALEX: Following you? Are you kidding me? I just happened to be here.

MARIA:
Oh, good, you found Isabel. He was looking for you.

SHERIFF:
You got to my father when he was at his weakest, and you pushed him over the edge.

AMY:
You can't quit now. The Alien Takedown is in an hour!

AMY
: I realize you suffered a broken rib last year...Fine, two. I...Did you not receive my gift basket?

HUBBLE: The handprints are the only trail he leaves.

HUBBLE:
This isn't just some happy-go-lucky alien we're lookin' at. This is a killer, Jimmy.

ISABEL:
I really like you, Alex.
ALEX: Well, thank you, Isabel.

ISABEL:
But this has to stop.
ALEX: It does, yeah. What? What does?

ISABEL:
I wanna be your friend, but every time I turn around you're there and...and it's suffocating me.

Hey, listen...let me ask you guys a question. As women, do you find that all men are obsessive?

AMY:
Yes.
LIZ: Absolutely.
MARIA: No question.
AMY: They find something...
MARIA: Usually something completely inane and useless.
LIZ: Oh, like football.
EVERYONE: Or UFOs.
AMY: Oh, and then they just don't let it go!
JEN: Until it consumes every waking minute of their day!

ALEX:
What if, uh, there's a guy whose obsession is a woman?
EVERYONE: Oh!
AMY: Oh, yeah, right.
LIZ: Dream on.

MARIA:
What?
MICHAEL: Mud. I'm thinking about mud.
MARIA: Why do I even try?

HUBBLE: It's him!
SHERIFF: Drop it!
HUBBLE: I just saw it! I was right!
SHERIFF: You saw what?
HUBBLE: His powers! Don't you see who he is? We have to stop him.

SHERIFF:
Son...
MAX: Would you treat your son this way?

MAX:
I think the one we've been looking for has killed people...a lot of people.
