THE NEW AVENGERS
QUOTE PAGES
"TRAP"
A.N: This episode is really good and the characters are very much how they were in the first season which is another big plus. Lots of fun, banter and even had the ole Gambit stare down! Onto the quotes!
GAMBIT: You’re early.
STEED: The early bird catches the worm. That’s a good similie for drug dealers…worms.
AFTER TELLING PURDEY THE HISTORY OF WINDSOR CASTLE
MARTY: It’s funny how people who live in a place don’t know as much about it as people who visit.
PURDEY: Well I knew that, I just didn’t want to get into a long boring explanation.
MARTY: Ah, do you find me boring?
PURDEY: Not if I put my mind to it.
MARTY: If I put my mind to it, you remind me a little of George Washington…on his mother’s side.
PURDEY: I always was…on his mother’s side.
GAMBIT: George Washington?
PURDEY: No, it’s just a street cleaner. Doesn’t look a bit like George Washington.
GAMBIT: You know what I mean.
PURDEY: Well you can be telepathic…about five drinks and ten minutes after midnight in a discotheque, I can sometimes tell what you’re thinking, but this time…
GAMBIT: You know, that American, Bryan.
PURDEY: Marty?! He’s handsome, isn’t he?
(GAMBIT LOOKS AT HER SHARPLY) So glad you agree.
MARTY: She’s not bionic, is she? Purdey? I mean she’s just so perfect I thought maybe someone had made her.
STEED: Some have tried. Many have floundered.
STEED: That was without doubt the worst landing I’ve ever seen.
GAMBIT: Well, we’re all down in one piece, aren’t we?
STEED: Not quite. My arm’s broken.
PURDEY: Are you sure?
STEED: It is my arm.
AFTER PURDEY USING HER UNDIES AND GUN HOLSTER TO WRAP AROUND SPLINT FOR STEED’S ARM.
GAMBIT: If you keep finding bandages of this quality, I might break a leg.
PURDEY: Promises, promises.
GAMBIT: Amnesia. Result of the crash. She’s forgotten how fond of me she is.
GAMBIT: Should’ve grabbed a gun back there.
STEED: If you’d have stayed back there, the only thing you would’ve grabbed would’ve been a bullet.
PURDEY: Shouldn’t we split up?
GAMBIT: Why?
PURDEY: That’s what they always do in the movies.
(FAKING AMERICAN ACCENT) Split up and head them off at the pass.GAMBIT: There is no pass; but I could always make one if you’re in the mood.
AFTER KNOCKING OUT ONE OF SOO CHOY’S MEN, STEED DONS HIS UNIFORM AS A DISGUISE.
STEED: How do I look?
PURDEY: Terribly inscrutable.
STEED: I hope I can find the voice to go with it.
JUST AS SOO CHOY PREPARES TO CUT OFF GAMBIT’S HEAD.
GAMBIT: Wait! No, wait! I think you should know one thing.
SOO CHOY: And what is that?
GAMBIT: I don’t believe in capital punishment.
SOO CHOY: I do not always appreciate your western sense of humour, but it occurs to me, be careful not to lose your head.
(HE LAUGHS WHILE GAMBIT STARES BACK AT HIM) But you’re not laughing now, Mr. Gambit.GAMBIT: Well, I’ve heard it before…or maybe it’s the way you tell it.
