• Dr. Zachary Smith : Oh, the pain, the pain.

• Dr. Zachary Smith : Bring your resources to bear and describe what is out there.

  The Robot : Invisible, indestructible, irresistible.

• Maj. Don West : You put the blasting pack in the hole marked with the arrow?

  Dr. Zachary Smith : Oh, indeed I did.

  Maj. Don West : Uh-huh. And you put the metal capping back on the hole before you left.

  Dr. Zachary Smith : Naturally. That's S.O.P. for all blasting operations.

  Maj. Don West : [angry]  There IS no arrow, and no metal capping. Now, what did you do with the explosives! I want the truth!

• Dr. Zachary Smith : Uncle Thaddeus, you stop that this minute!

  Dr. Zachary Smith : [seeing Don aim his laser rifle]  What are you doing to him?

  Maj. Don West : What's he doing to US?

  [Smith pulls Don's laser rifle away] 

  Maj. Don West : What'd you do that for?

  Dr. Zachary Smith : I don't want you to hurt Uncle Thaddeus.

  Maj. Don West : It's not your Uncle Thaddeus, you idiot! It's something you started by ditching that explosive in the...

  Dr. Zachary Smith : Now you've done it! You've given the powers of darkness an open invitation to destroy us all!

• [the monster is caught but still invisible] 

  Maj. Don West : [shouting]  For once and for all, Smith, why don't you get it through your thick head that what's in there is NOT your Uncle Thaddeus!

  Dr. Zachary Smith : [outraged]  Yes, I know, Major! It's mass and energy and similar figments of your nuclear imagination - and if you choose to believe that humbug, you go right ahead and do it! Oh, the ignorance of science!

• Dr. Zachary Smith : [on his way to the bog to placate the spirit of Uncle Thaddeus]  Oh, oh, oh, the dangers I face for that family!

• Dr. Zachary Smith : [wondering how to placate the scary form standing before them]  This garlic will probably do the trick.

  Will Robinson : [holding his nose]  What do you want me to do with it?

  Dr. Zachary Smith : Wave it in front of him and repeat after me: Oh, ye herb of evil odor...

  Will Robinson : Oh, ye herb of evil odor...

  Dr. Zachary Smith : ...Unite with the demons who possess this spirit and render them harmless.

  Will Robinson : ...Unite with the demons who possess this spirit and...

  Dr. Zachary Smith : Well? Go on! Go on!

  Will Robinson : I don't think that's a spirit at all.

  Dr. Zachary Smith : What?

  Will Robinson : I think it's a dead tree.

  Dr. Zachary Smith : [as Will approaches the tree]  Don't get too close.

  Will Robinson : I'm right. It IS a tree.

  Dr. Zachary Smith : [angrily to the tree]  Impostor!

• Prof. John Robinson : Is Will with you?

  Dr. Zachary Smith : [believing Will drowned]  He will always be with me.

  Prof. John Robinson : Never mind that! Where is he now?

  Dr. Zachary Smith : It was a fateful journey, one of which I was prepared to sacrifice myself if need be to save you all.

  Prof. John Robinson : Where... is... he?

  Dr. Zachary Smith : The bog. The... bog.

• Dr. Zachary Smith : From now on I shall devote the rest of my life to the service of my fellow man with no thought of self. That brave little boy shall not have died in vain. A new Zachary Smith shall burst upon the world with a...

  Dr. Zachary Smith : [turns and sees Will]  NAHHH! On, no! No, not so soon! You can't materialize until I've raised you, and I don't even have my Ouija board.

  Will Robinson : But, Dr. Smith...

  Dr. Zachary Smith : Haunt me not, oh spirit! I have already repented, I swear to you!

  Will Robinson : I'm not a spirit, Dr. Smith. I'm just me.
