Hardison: “You know, Fermi’s paradox says that it’s improbable for other life forms to exist.”
Eliot: “Yeah? Well, Drake’s equation shows that orbiting around the hundred billion stars in our galaxy there’s up to ten thousand planets with technological civilization. [smiles at Hardison who gives him a surprised look] You never know when you might have to fight an alien.”
–Leverage (The First Contact Job, S5E3)
“I’ll tell you, the Stargate, I wish you had it because there’s a lost shot, one we could not do. When we bring the team back together at the beginning of Season Two, we had little moments of what everybody said what they did during the break and Eliot’s was going to be ‘What did you do?’ and we were gonna flash to the Stargate with him in the gear: ‘All right, but this is the last time.’ And then flash back and him going ‘No…’ But the Stargate was broken! It was thrown away.”
–John Rogers to Dean Devlin, DVD commentary for “The Last Dam Job”
Listen. LISTEN. You can pry “Eliot was on a gate team” from my cold dead little hands for a whole list of reasons but mainly because nothing would be more hysterical then watching Hardison trying to understand Eliot working at Cheyenne Mountain. Know why?
The cover story for the Stargate Program was that it was doing deep space telemetry for NORAD. Please imagine Hardison trying to wrap his brain around Eliot spending what, four years?, doing deep space telemetry. And Eliot just shrugs because
“I can’t have a hobby, Hardison, is that what your saying? That’s just stereotyping, man, that’s wrong.” He keeps it up until they’re actually in the gate room and then he slaps Hardison on the back and grins.
“I’m just messing with you man, I was fighting aliens. Come meet Teal’c, bet he’ll let Parker climb him like a rock wall, it’s fun.”
