barney_01 | Hey, Doc? Doctor Kleiner? Look who's here. | |
barney_04 | Doc. Someone here to meet you. | |
barney_07 | Heh heh, I thought that would get your attention. | |
barney_09 | It's okay, Doc. Relax. So far, we haven't set off any alarms…though we should keep moving. | |
barney_11 | Don't mind him, Gordon, we've all been on edge. | |
barney_14 | Just get him in his suit and I can get him off to Eli's. | |
barney_16 | And how's that supposed to work, exactly? | |
barney_18 | Eli's place is a hell of a lot closer. But I'm not taking Gordon out in his civvies. | |
barney_22 | Knock it off, Doc. | |
barney_24 | You are an odd duck. | |
barney_25 | Here we go - Yaaah! Hey, get that thing away from me! | |
barney_27 | I thought you got rid of that pest! | |
barney_29 | I don't know how you can stand to keep that thing around. After what it did to your partners. | |
barney_31 | Hoo oo ah wah. | |
barney_33 | Damn it! Get it off me! | — |
barney_36 | Maybe I can convince her to stay longer. | — |
barney_41 | It's time to suit up, Gordon. | |
barney_42 | Get your suit on, Gordon. | |
barney_43 | I'm with Dr. Kleiner on this one, Gordon. We don't have time to fool around. Get your suit on. | |
barney_46 | So always look for the Combine label. | |
barney_54 | Okay, gang. Time's a-wasting. I'm gonna need to send word out to Eli and smooth the way for Gordon to get out of town. | |
barney_56 | Look, Doc, I don't tell you how to conduct your experiments, so don't you tell me how to run my operation. |

barney_02 | Mossman's just gonna tell you what I've been saying. Get him to Eli's place, and Eli can take it from there. |
barney_11 | Tell her I'll smuggle him out to Eli's place. |
barney_13 | Your man? |
barney_18 | What? |
barney_23 | You're not serious. |
barney_25 | But Doc, the last time you tried this. |
barney_29 | I'm telling you, we should be heading for Eli's. |
barney_31 | Sometimes the old ways are the best. |
barney_33 | All right, all right, Doc, but I've got to tell you, I got a bad feeling about this. |
barney_37 | Careful with that thing. |
barney_40 | We're not outta the woods yet. |
barney_44 | I don't blame you for hesitating, but if we're gonna do this thing, then let's just get through it. |
barney_45 | Gordon, get a move on. |
barney_50 | Yeah, except for this gnawing certainty of doom. |
barney_52 | Uh, nine nine seven three seven nine three point thirty seven. Are you writing this down? |
barney_54 | That's what you said last time, to that poor cat. |
barney_57 | I didn't tell Gordon about the cat, maybe I should have. |
barney_59 | I can't bear to look. |
barney_60 | I'll be damned. |
barney_62 | I had to turn the cat right side out again, Gordon, to make sure it was a cat. |
barney_64 | It's all you, Doc. |
