(crawling underneath a pile of rubble)
Taggart: I love small spaces.
Carter: I hate small spaces.
Taggart: Like returning to the womb.
Stark: That's a disturbing thought.
Taggart: (stuck) We need a bigger womb! (edit)
Carter: (recovering from an attack by Global Dynamics' security system) I hate this building. (edit)
Zane: I still can’t believe I let you talk me into chaperoning.
Jo: Hey, no one snapped off your fingers.
Zane: The ease with which you say that is almost as disturbing as it is hot.
Jo: I know. (edit)
Fargo: That's a motion-activated photon defense array. They're screwed.
Carter, Stark & Taggart: (over radio) We can hear you!
Fargo: Sorry. (edit)
Stark: We’ll have to climb down.
Carter: Yeah, you’d better let me go first.
Stark: Why?
Carter: Heights make me nauseous.
Stark: After you. (edit)

Allusions

Taggart: You want... every... single... second.

Taggart utters this lines prior to opening the morgue doors, where "zombies" are possibly located. Frank, as played by Matt Frewer, spoke the same line in 2004's Dawn of the Dead, just prior to dying. (edit)
Taggart: He's fallen for one of the classic blunders. Never go in against an Australian when death is on the line.

Taggart paraphrases a classic quote from the 1987 movie The Princess Bride. However, while Vizzini (Wallace Shawn) declares "never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line", Taggart changes it to an Australian. (edit)
Taggart: Just remember - serpentine!

An allusion to The In-Laws (1979), in which Vince (Peter Falk) tells Shelly (Alan Arkin) repeatedly to "serpentine" to avoid being shot. (edit)
Computer: Resistance is futile.

An allusion to the Star Trek race "The Borg". The Borg species is part machine and part organic and evolves by assimilating civilizations and technology. Prior to carrying out an "assimilation", they announce to their victims "You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile." (edit)

"Unoriginal"
Must we always, ALWAYS be fed the unconvincing, unoriginal and potentially disastrous line that one child (or whomever) is worth all the knowledge in the world?!?

Well not much to this season ender the whole thing was a strange mess to be quite honest. The resolution for Henry was he wasn't a bad guy but trying to help in light of no one listening to him. Not sure such a ruse was really
