"Maybe I've traveled through time, or perhaps I've crash-landed on an alien planet, and as we speak, extraterrestrials are trying to harvest my intellect." "I mean, such as it is." "Maybe I'm the victim of a mind experiment, or maybe I've died and gone to Heaven, or Hell." "How about Purgatory?" "Or maybe I've plain gone insane." "'Cause I don't know what's real anymore."

"What I'm doing in 1973 and how to get back, I'll figure it out on my own." "But until then I guess I'm left with only 'one option." "And what's that, Sam?"

"All shot, and that's no small thing, considering they were tucked snug behind bulletproof glass with no witnesses no sign of forced entry." "Yeah, that's..." "That's very cool." "Hey, listen, any chance I'm gonna get sprung anytime soon?" "You know, Laugh-ln is on tonight, and I got it bad for that Goldie Hawn." "We know you're involved, Trent."
