- [Archer intends to search for the mysterious woman on his own]
- Sub-Commander T'Pol: With respect, Captain, I wonder if you would be so determined to find this apparition if it were a scantily-clad man.
- Capt. Jonathan Archer: Do Vulcan captains have their portraits hanging at the High Command?
- Sub-Commander T'Pol: Vulcans are revered for their accomplishments, not for the way they look.
- Cmdr. Charles 'Trip' Tucker III: Except for the really important ones, who get mummified.
- Capt. Jonathan Archer: Trip, have you ever known me to do anything foolish, I mean, really foolish?
- Cmdr. Charles 'Trip' Tucker III: I remember a poker game at Jupiter Station once. Other than that...
- Capt. Jonathan Archer: Last night I walked into an alien jungle, alone, chasing a woman who... couldn't possibly have been there.
- Cmdr. Charles 'Trip' Tucker III: That might qualify.
- The Wraith: We can become whatever you see - a tree, an animal, water, whatever you see.
- Capt. Jonathan Archer: I see a beautiful woman.
- The Wraith: Because you want to see a beautiful woman.
- Capt. Jonathan Archer: I know who you are.
- The Wraith: [smiles] You remembered.
- Capt. Jonathan Archer: Thank you... for reminding me.
- [Archer has found out that the image of the woman originated from a poem he had heard as a boy]
- Capt. Jonathan Archer: She may just be something I envisioned a long time ago. But I'll be damned if I'm gonna let anyone shoot her.
- [the Enterprise away team is exploring a dark jungle planet]
- Capt. Jonathan Archer: This reminds me of the rain forest in New Zealand. I earned my Wilderness merit badge there.
- Lt. Malcolm Reed: You were a Boy Scout, sir?
- Capt. Jonathan Archer: [with pride] I was an Eagle Scout!
- Lt. Malcolm Reed: Oh. So was I.
- Capt. Jonathan Archer: Really? How many merit badges?
- Lt. Malcolm Reed: 28. You?
- Capt. Jonathan Archer: 26.
- Lt. Malcolm Reed: Ah... that's not bad, sir.
- Lt. Malcolm Reed: I'm picking up a power signature near the equator. There's a ship down there.
- Capt. Jonathan Archer: Try to hail them.
- Ensign Hoshi Sato: No response.
- Cmdr. Charles 'Trip' Tucker III: Maybe they wanna be left alone. A single ship on a dark planet? Maybe they're on their honeymoon.
- Capt. Jonathan Archer: I know you. How is that possible?
- The Wraith: If you didn't know me, would you have come?
- Capt. Jonathan Archer: Do you know any poetry?
- Cmdr. Charles 'Trip' Tucker III: You mean besides "There was a young lady from Ipswich"?
- [Tucker and Reed are preparing to go camping on the planet]
- Cmdr. Charles 'Trip' Tucker III: If the bugs glow in the dark, at least you can tell when they crawl into your sleeping bag.
- Ensign Hoshi Sato: One more reason I am happy to spend the night in my own bunk. Anyway, it's the things you can't see that I'd be worried about.
- Lt. Malcolm Reed: Like those bore worms.
- Cmdr. Charles 'Trip' Tucker III: Bore worms?
- Ensign Hoshi Sato: Apparently they crawl into your ear to lay their eggs. Have a nice night!
- [the away team has detected the location of the alien vessel in the jungle]
- Lt. Malcolm Reed: Follow me.
- Capt. Jonathan Archer: Why don't you let me play captain for a while, Malcolm?
- [the explorers come across a fluorescent centipede-like creature]
- Capt. Jonathan Archer: We spot any more creatures like that and we'll earn our Exobiology badges.
- Lt. Malcolm Reed: Actually, I already have that one.
