Cmdr. Kelly Grayson : Lieutenant, have you ever studied the history of money?
Lt. John LaMarr : No, not really. I know people used to use it to buy houses and sandwiches and stuff.
Cmdr. Kelly Grayson : Exactly. It became obsolete with the invention of matter synthesis. Predominant currency became reputation.
Lt. John LaMarr : Yeah, so?
Cmdr. Kelly Grayson : My point it: human ambition didn't vanish. The only thing that changed is how we quantify wealth. People still want to be rich, only now being rich means being the best at what you do.
Lt. John LaMarr : Not everybody wants that. Some people like to keep it simple. Some people like to go to work, go home, drink a beer and pass out.
Cmdr. Kelly Grayson : Are you one of those people?
Lt. John LaMarr : I am very fond of drinking beer and passing out, yes.

Isaac : Lieutenant, if I may make an observation: you seem ill-fitted to perform your assigned duties.
Lt. John LaMarr : Yeah, that's what I tried to tell Commander Grayson.
Isaac : Then why did she place you in command?
Lt. John LaMarr : She says it's 'cause I'm smart.
Isaac : I would be happy to inform her that you are not.

Lt. John LaMarr : I think we could create a stable quantum bubble inside the shuttle and preserve three dimensional space.
Dr. Claire Finn : So the outside would be squashed but the inside wouldn't.
Capt. Ed Mercer : More space inside then out. Like Dr. Who's phone booth.
Cmdr. Kelly Grayson : Or Oscar the Grouch's can.
Lt. John LaMarr : Or Snoopy's dog house. Yeah.

Isaac : We are currently analyzing the scans of the quantum wake.
Cmdr. Kelly Grayson : And there's no explanation for the dead plants?
Lt. John LaMarr : We're cross-referencing the bioscans of the plants with what we know about the anomaly, which, right now, isn't much.
Capt. Ed Mercer : They've been watered, right? Like, do we have a... a plant guy?
Cmdr. Kelly Grayson : Palovis. He's the lizard-looking guy in the science section.
Capt. Ed Mercer : Is that his name? God, I can never remember that guy's name. I-I see him coming in the hall, and he's always like "Hey, good morning, Captain", and I'm always like "Hey, there he is."

Lt. John LaMarr : Look, Yaphit, I-I'm really sorry about what happened earlier. You know, we were just messing around. You know, it was a joke.
Yaphit : A joke? I spent an hour in Bortus' colon! You think that's funny?
[Ty and Marcus laugh]
Yaphit : Oh, yeah, laugh it up, you brats.

Marcus Finn : We got out of school early because of the bumps. You want to go to the simulator and play some Space Dragons?
Isaac : I am currently occupied.
Ty Finn : What are you doing?
Isaac : I am preparing to run a scan on the section of the Orville that came into contact with the anomaly.
Marcus Finn : Can we help?
Isaac : No. You are small and feeble. And you do not possess the necessary intelligence.
Lt. John LaMarr : Wow. Why don't you just give 'em wedgies and stuff 'em in a locker while you're at it?
