Quotes 

• Jefferson Jackson : I really wish I had better news about Sara, but she's still in a coma thanks to Damien Darhk's daughter laying her out.

  Ray Palmer : Well, in the meantime, we could do what we do best and fix a few anachronisms.

  Mick Rory : How about you just drop me off on an island full of beautiful women like Zari did with that Helen chick.

  Zari Tomaz : Rory, you weren't supposed to say anything.

  Amaya Jiwe : Wait, you didn't take Helen back to Troy where she belongs?

  Zari Tomaz : That's what the Time Bureau does. But we... we do something different.

  Nate Heywood : No, we do it different... ly.

  Nate Heywood : Yeah, more messy.

  Zari Tomaz : Okay, if you look at the historical record, the Trojan War happens with or without Helen. See? No anachronism.

  Ray Palmer : How do you think the captain would feel about you re-engingeering time?

• Nate Heywood : Everything okay? You're hitting the bag like it's insulting your mother, and you haven't said anything for, like, thirty minutes.

  Amaya Jiwe : What is there to say?

  Nate Heywood : I don't know. Talk about your granddaughter? And not the superhero, either. The psycho water witch.

  Amaya Jiwe : The who?

  Nate Heywood : Your granddaughter. I mean, I'm sure she's really not that bad.

  Amaya Jiwe : You just called her a psycho water witch.

  Nate Heywood : Yeah, and I instantly regret it.

• Nate Heywood : Oof. Vietnam. 1967. Also known as the height of the Vietnam War. Gideon, what kind of anachronism are we dealing with?

  Gideon : A level eight. Scans of the historical record reveal redacted Pentagon reports about a creature of unknown origin attacking American and Vietcong soldiers in the jungle. Dozens have disappeared without a trace.

  Mick Rory : No way I'm going to 'Nam.

  Amaya Jiwe : All I know is that if American soldiers are being targeted, I am ready to do my duty.

  Nate Heywood : This war's a little different. Unlike World War II, the military objectives in Vietnam weren't so cut and dry.

  Zari Tomaz : Yeah, it was controversial, and the reasons for getting involved were murky. You know, come to think about it, this team should be right at home.

• Nate Heywood : Amaya.

  Amaya Jiwe : Nathaniel.

  Dick Rory : Shut up.

  Nate Heywood : Are you okay?

  Amaya Jiwe : Mick?

  [he ignores her] 

  Amaya Jiwe : Mick. What's wrong with him?

  Nate Heywood : I'm afraid he's gone full Kurtz.

  Amaya Jiwe : What does that mean?

  Nate Heywood : It's a movie reference. Great movie, terrible situation.

• Zari Tomaz : You saw what I saw right, right? There's a gorilla sitting on a throne? He spoke better English than Mick.

  Amaya Jiwe : Well, he's clearly intelligent enough to trick these GIs to abandon their posts. He's a monster. He needs to be stopped. Look, he's turned these men into his slaves.

  Anh Ly : Ong Troi Moi freed these soldiers. He is the reason they are no longer killing one another.

  Amaya Jiwe : Yeah, it's a real utopia he's created for himself.

  Anh Ly : I brought you here to help spread Ong Troi Moi's message to the world. You are only here to document what you see.

• Amaya Jiwe : I need your shrink ray.

  Ray Palmer : I dislike that the name is catching on. Look, even if you can miniaturize Grodd, there's still ten miles of jungle warfare between us and the Waverider.

  Amaya Jiwe : Yeah, which is why you guys are gonna take down the communications jammer and call for backup.

  Zari Tomaz : While you take down a hyper-intelligent telepathic primate by yourself?

  Amaya Jiwe : All I need is one clean shot.
