Jones: Why does he have to look up?

Jones: That's a bit limited, isn't it?

Van: [Sarcastically] Well, maybe you should design a better one.

Jones: Maybe I will idiot.

Hicks: [after Priest explained that Hicks should anticipate a vampire's move, he had to learn how to see their movement from Point A to Point B. And Hicks was apparently learning because he just, finally, shot a vampire] Point A? Meet point fucking B.
