[edit] Quotes
Charles Colby: She took some more film on her own?
Billy Jackson: Yes Mr. Colby, but eh, she said it was very important.
Charles Colby: Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's always important. I mean we got miles of film that's she's taken of pidgeons and, and clouds, and all that was important, wasn't it?
Billy Jackson: Yes, sir.
Charles Colby: You know when I was a Washington correspondent, I didn't use as much film on the Presidents inauguration as she wasted last week on sandcastles
Oscar Goldman: You know, I didn't know that you were interested in archaeology, I thought you were just going along to keep me company, ride your dune buggy.
Steve Austin: Well, what really interests me is watching Oscar Goldman dig holes in the ground.
Steve Austin: Hey now, wait a minute, Oscar, what you're about to do, that's like hitting a butterfly with a sledgehammer.
Oscar Goldman: You remember what I said to you about a target on your back?
Steve Austin: Yeah.
Oscar Goldman: Well that lady is loading the rifle, pal.
Victoria Webster: He's a rat, your mister Goldman, calling me a blackmailer.
Steve Austin: Oh, he's not so bad once you get to know him.
Victoria Webster: The world is entitled to know such advanced technology as you excist. Think what that would mean, that would give hope to countless people. I'm gonna get this story, and you'd better believe it.
Karl: Let's face it. You are not cut out for climbing, fighting or killing and that's what we're gonna be doing.
Steve Austin: Hey, are you always the reporter? I mean don't you ever take time to enjoy life, or to does, eh, your work take priority over everything else?
Victoria Webster: I have the unique capability of doing both. Like now, I'm enjoying both.
Victor: She thinks we're fakes.
Oscar Goldman: I wish they were.
Victoria Webster: Ooh, very good, Mr. Goldman, but not quite good enough.
Karl: What happened?
Victor: He's too much. You're gonna have to kill him.
Charles Colby: He's not worth anything dead.
Karl: Shut up! It's a personal thing for me now.
Steve Austin: Well this is the, eh, negative of the film Miss Webster shot of me rescuing here on the cliff. It's all the bionic stuff.
Oscar Goldman: (startled, Oscar glances at Victoria who feigns innocence) Why you... here give me that.
Steve Austin: Oh no, Oscar, I'm on her side.
[edit] Trivia
[edit] Music
- A theme developed for this episode, "Baja Bossa", has seen release on CD. A playful version of this theme is used for the dune buggy ride, while a more reflective version is used while Victoria sets up cameras to catch Steve's bionic feats on film. It is this version which is reused in The Bionic Woman (Part II), when Steve reveals the truth of his accident to his mother.
