3x07 - Thanks For Sharing

John-Z: John wearing the zippered, green shirt
John-V: John wearing the black shirt and PK vest

John-Z: I know it's not as bad as last time, it's not the cromagnon-copy or the Alien Nation reject, but you can *tell* I'm the original, right?
Alien Nation....a movie in the early 80's and made into a TV show for Fox. Thanks also to the site fan who wrote in and told us that Farscape creator Rockne S. O'Bannon wrote the movie Alien Nation....um...we knew that...yea. We sure did. :-)

John-Z: Figure out that I'm the real thing and he's the wannabe.
"Wannabe", slang for someone who tries too hard (yet invariably fails) to immitate someone or something, usually a celebrity.

John-Z: (sweet-talking Jool) I know where Rygel stashes his wamelon cake.... and it's sweeter than a sweet thang...sweet thang...
Oh, he's a sweet talker all right, mmm, mmm, mmm.

John-Z: (Crais is surprised to see Aeryn alive) Let's skip the backstory right now.
A "backstory" is a literary or cinematic device used to bring the reader or audience up to date on things that have happened before the events of the book or movie. The backstory is sometimes relayed by narration or by flashbacks.

John-Z: (John wants to know who attacked Talyn) Plakavoid, Sketsies, the Big Bad Wolf...
John still can't pronounce "Plokavians", the Sketsies are probably a reference to the bird-like creatures of Out of Their Minds which bear a striking resemblance to the bird-like "Sketsies" of The Dark Crystal", and the Big Bad Wolf is the villain of "The Three Little Pigs."

Jool: (needing a tissue sample) ...preferably something with the least amount of solar radiation
John-Z: Shoulder... I use SPF 30.
SPF stands for Sun Protection Factor. Sunscreen is sold according to SPF.

John-V: (Stark starts freaking out) Astro! (holds up his tool and swings it back and forth like he's hypnotizing Stark)
Work now, freak later, work now, freak later
S: How much later?

John-Z: Aeryn, I'm going to Command. You stay with Captain Crunch.
Captain Crunch is a breakfast cereal.

John-V: Crais, I want you to find the fattest target you can-- Government House, missle site, McDonalds-- whatever.
I knew it, McDonald's is everywhere.

John-V: (introducing himself to the leader) John Crichton, Wizard of Oz
Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain....If you haven't seen it yet, you really need to go out and rent "The Wizard of Oz" if just to understand half the things John says.

John-V: You might want to check the resume.
Imagine that one, "Proficient in shadow depository demolition and riot incitement."

John-V: Man, you people got a funky sense of humor-- get this lobster off my head!

John-V: We're here to buy the stuff and then get the hell outta Dodge!
This boy is a pop culture junkie. Not only is he a huge fan of The Wizard of Oz and a Star Trek fan, but he likes Westerns too.

John-Z: (to John-V coming into the infirmary) D'Argo filled me in on your adventures with the Gotti family.
The Gotti Family has been closely linked with organized crime and the Mafia.

John-Z: (on why he's helping save John-V's life) Because the show must go on.
"The show must go on" is a catchphrase for the theater.

(John-Z is now impersonating...himself)
Renick: I want the truth!
John--Z: You can't handle the tru...
LOL, John loves the movies.... A Few Good Men....Tom Cruise, Jack Nicholson

John-Z's idea of poetry--
Cross my heart and smack me dead.
Stick a lobster on my head.

John-Z: Look at the suckers on that thing. In some parts of the universe that'd be considered good eatin'.

Back on the planet after finding out the Cromextin was laced with Clorium--
John-Z: (To Tolvin) You been lyin' to your daddy, boy, and you KNOW you shouldn't lie to your daddy. Who's your daddy? Come on, you know who your daddy is...Who's your daddy?!? D'Argo, tell him who his daddy is.
D: I'm your daddy.

John-V is now on Talyn and John-Z is not happy--
D: At least he's out of your nose.
John-Z: Hair
D: Right, nose hair.
LOL....
