  • Minerva is actually a Roman god, the equivilant to Athena of Greek mythology. edit »
  • Neptune is actually the Roman god of the sea, whereas Poseiden was the Greek god of the sea. edit »
  • Lucas: Dagwood, there are no horses on seaQuest... (He looks at Tony) At least not a whole one. edit »
  • Bridger: A pyramid?
    O’Neill: Well, yeah, sort of. I mean, that’s what it looks like.
    Lucas: That is its mathematical shape, captain.
    Bridger: This thing is the size of Manhattan. That’s a little preposterous, don’t you think?
    Lucas: It’s very preposterous and…it’s the size of Ohio.
    Bridger: Yes, and the sun is pulled across the sky by a chariot, and Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. edit »
  • Lucas (about the pyramid): If I had to put a date on it, well, I’d, uh, say it predates time, sir.
    O’Neill: Yeah, the first thing for the very beginning for the very first thing.
    Bridger: I got the concept, Lieutenant. edit »
  • Ortiz (referring to a song): Did you just write that thing, like just now?
    Sarah: Sort of, yeah. Sometimes they just kinda, come out, but this one, God knows where it’s coming from. It feels really old.
    Ortiz: Like Pearl Jam. edit »
  • Ortiz: I bet you didn’t fly because of the birds.
    Sarah: I don’t fly because it makes me throw up. edit »
  • Ford: Come on, one of those rock guys used to bite chicken's heads off onstage.

    A reference to Ozzy Osbourne who once bit the head off a bat during one of his concerts when a fan threw it onstage, but he actually thought it was fake. edit »
  • Dagwood: When did seaQuest get a horse?
    Lucas: seaQuest doesn’t have a horse.
    Dagwood: We have a dolphin.
    Lucas: Yeah, but not a horse.
    Dagwood: A horse is a horse.
    Piccolo: Of course, of course.

    This is a reference to the 1960's TV series Mister Ed about a talking horse. The lines are from the theme song of the series. edit »
