Blake's 7

Vila: Avon! Avon! Avon! Answer me! Avon! It's not Gan! Avon? Jenna? Now don't let's be silly. Answer me, one of you! I shall come out in a rash. Zen, has something happened to them? Zen: Data is not available. Vila: I don't want data, I want to know what's happening. Zen: It will be necessary for you to make a personal investigation. Vila: Oh, you're a big help. Personal investigation! (he grabs a weapon) Personal investigation! The next time Avon wants to make a personal investigation on how you work, I shall make a personal point of handing him the instruments, personally.

Tyce: You'd sell your grandmother, wouldn't you? Tarvin: I did. She was going to sell me, I got in first.

Gan: Let me go across and get it. If it is a trap I'll warn you. Then Vila can open fire. Vila: With you on board? Gan: If necessary. Vila: You feeling all right? Gan: Fine. Avon: You would give the instruction for your own death? You expect us to believe that? Gan: Yes. I expect you to believe that.

Tyce: And he's a social climber. Probably works your name into every conversation - "My friend, ex-President Sarkoff." Sarkoff: Tyce, that is a most ill-mannered remark. Tyce: It's the truth. Sarkoff: Civilization has always depended on courtesy rather than truth.

Vila: I don't like the look of that. Gan: Not again, Vila. Vila: I'm entitled to my opinion. Avon: It is your assumption that we are entitled to it as well that is irritating. Jenna: What do you think? Avon: As a matter of fact, I don't like the look of it either. Vila: He agrees with me! Avon: The flight path is too erratic. Vila: Makes it all seem worthwhile, somehow. Avon: It looks deliberate to me. Jenna: It could be an injured pilot. Avon: It could be a trap. Gan: It's not a very good one, then. We're suspicious of it already. Avon: The test is not whether you are suspicious, but whether you are caught.
