Nick Fury : You know you're glowing, right?
Carol Danvers : I'll explain it later.
[Carol opens the lunch box, revealing the Tesseract while Fury removes Goose's muzzle]
Carol Danvers : Take the Tesseract. Leave the lunch box.
Nick Fury : Me?
Carol Danvers : Yes.
Nick Fury : I'm not touching that thing.
Carol Danvers : You want me to get you an oven mitt?
[Goose suddenly reveals tentacles from his mouth and uses them to grab the Tesseract and swallow it. Fury drops Goose]
Nick Fury : Whoa!
[Surprised look on Fury and Maria's faces]
Carol Danvers : Get the Skrulls on the Quadjet and go. Take the... Flerken with you.

[Fury picks up Goose]
Nick Fury : I'm trusting you not to eat me.

-
Maria Rambeau : Can I ask you something? Do you just turn into anything you want?
Talos : Ah well, I have to see it first.
Maria Rambeau : Can you all do it?
Talos : Physiologically, yeah. But it takes practice and, um, dare I say it, talent to do it well.
Nick Fury : Can you turn into a cat?
Talos : What's a cat?
Maria Rambeau : What about a filing cabinet?
Talos : Why would I turn into a filing cabinet?

Carol Danvers : For emergencies only. Okay?
Nick Fury : Well, if you're ever passing back through this galaxy, be sure to give a brother a shout.
-
Nick Fury : So... you're not from around here.
Carol Danvers : It's hard to explain.

[Vers activates her beacon before Fury knocks on the payphone booth]
Nick Fury : Excuse me, miss. You know anything about a lady blowing a hole through the roof of that Blockbuster over there? Witness says she was dressed for laser tag.
Carol Danvers : Oh. Yeah, I think she went that way.
[Vers proceeds to walk away, but Fury stops her and shows him his I.D]
Nick Fury : Uh, I'd like to ask you some questions. Maybe give you the 411 on the late-night drop box. Could I see some identification, please?
Carol Danvers : Vers. Kree Starforce. We don't carry our identification on little cards.
Nick Fury : Vers? Starforce? How long you plan to be in town?
Carol Danvers : Oh, I'll be out of your hair as soon as I track down the Skrulls that are infiltrating your planet.
Nick Fury : Skrulls?
Carol Danvers : Shapeshifters? They can transform into any life-form down to the DNA.
[Vers notices Fury and Coulson smiling]
Carol Danvers : Oh, boy. You guys don't have any clue, do you?
[Vers proceeds to walk away]
Nick Fury : Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hold on. How do we know you're not one of those shapeshifters?
Carol Danvers : Congratulations, Agent Fury. You have finally asked a relevant question.
Nick Fury : No! Congratulations to you, Starforce lady. You're under arrest.

Nick Fury : Rook! Rook, let's roll!
-
Nick Fury : Who's a good kitty huh? Huh Goose? Yes, that's right. Who's a good kitty Goose? You're a good kitty.
-
Nick Fury : Congrats to you, Starforce lady. You're under arrest.
-
Talos : You know, you really shouldn't have that thing on your lap.
Nick Fury : Our little alliance with you is tenuous at best. And as long as he continues to freak you out...
[holding Goose out and watching Talos recoil]
Nick Fury : ...like that, yeah, I'm gonna keep giving him all the love and hugs that he needs, right?
-
Nick Fury : You look like somebody's disaffected niece.
-
Nick Fury : [escaping from Keller] Do you know how to fly this thing?
Carol Danvers : Uh, we'll see.
Nick Fury : That's a yes or no question.
Carol Danvers : [powering the engines up] Yes.
-
Carol Danvers : Keep the Tesseract on Earth. Hidden.
Nick Fury : You sure that's what Marvel would want?
Carol Danvers : Mar-Vell.
Nick Fury : That's what I said.
Carol Danvers : It's two words. Mar. Vell.
Nick Fury : Mar-Vell. "Marvel" sounds a lot better. You know, like the Marvelettes?
[as she looks on amused, he starts singing "Please, Mr. Postman"]
Nick Fury : Not ringing any bells?
Carol Danvers : Keep singing. Maybe it'll come back to me.
-
Carol Danvers : Where's Pegasus?
Nick Fury : That's classified. Not unlike the file I started on you. But I see you've changed it up a bit since then. Grunge is a good look for you.
Carol Danvers : Did you have a rough day, Agent Fury?
Nick Fury : It was cool, you know? Had a space invasion, big car chase. Got to watch an alien autopsy. Typical 9-to-5.
Carol Danvers : So you saw one?
Nick Fury : I was never one to believe in aliens, but I can't unsee that.
-
Nick Fury : What?
Carol Danvers : [holding her hand out] Your communicator. You obviously can't be trusted with it.
-
Carol Danvers : Just so I'm clear... you were Soh-Larr and the S.H.I.E.L.D. agent?
Nick Fury : Keller. Tied my boss up, stole his identity.
Talos : I borrowed his likeness. I'm no thief.
Soren : It's a little like stealing.
Talos : Who... whose side are you on here?
-
Carol Danvers : Lawson's plan for the light-speed engine. I wonder why they terminated the project.
Nick Fury : [showing her a coded journal] Um, maybe because she's cuckoo.
Carol Danvers : [recognizing the language] Kree glyphs?
Nick Fury : Hmm?
Carol Danvers : Lawson is not cuckoo. She's Kree.
Nick Fury : Well, she's dead.
Carol Danvers : What?
Nick Fury : Crashed the Asis aircraft doing an unauthorized test flight. Took a pilot down with her. That's why security here is so unfriendly. They're covering up a billion-dollar mistake.
-
Carol Danvers : [to Talos and Soren] I'll help you find a home. Finish what Mar-Vell started.
Monica Rambeau (11 Years Old) : They can stay here with us. Can't they, mom?
Maria Rambeau : They won't be safe here, baby. Auntie Carol's right. They need their own home.
Carol Danvers : I'll be back before you know it.
Monica Rambeau (11 Years Old) : Maybe I could fly up and meet you halfway?
Nick Fury : Ah, only if you learn to glow like your Auntie Carol.
Monica Rambeau (11 Years Old) : Or maybe I'll build a spaceship. You don't know.
Carol Danvers : He doesn't.
[she laughs as he looks at her indignantly]
-
Carol Danvers : This is gonna get a little awkward, but I gotta ask.
Nick Fury : You think I'm one of those green things.
Carol Danvers : Can't be too careful.
Nick Fury : You are looking at 100% red-blooded Earth man.
Carol Danvers : I'm afraid I'm gonna need proof.
Nick Fury : We talking cheek swab or urine sample?
Carol Danvers : No. The DNA would match.
Nick Fury : Want my AOL password?
Carol Danvers : Skrulls can only sim recent memories of their host bodies.
Nick Fury : Oh, ho. You wanna get personal.
-
Carol Danvers : Where were you born?
Nick Fury : Huntsville, Alabama. But technically, I don't remember that part.
Carol Danvers : Name of your first pet?
Nick Fury : Mr. Snoofers.
Carol Danvers : Mr. Snoofers?
Nick Fury : That's what I said. Do I pass?
Carol Danvers : Not yet. First job?
Nick Fury : Solider. Straight out of high school. Left the ranks of a full bird colonel.
Carol Danvers : Then?
Nick Fury : Spy.
Carol Danvers : Where?
Nick Fury : It was the Cold War. We were everywhere. Uh, Belfast. Bucharest. Belgrade. Budapest. I like the Bs. I can make 'em rhyme.
Carol Danvers : Now?
Nick Fury : Been riding a desk for the past six years trying to figure out where our future enemies are coming from.
-
Nick Fury : Your turn. Prove you're not a Skrull.
[she destroys a jukebox with a photon blast]
Nick Fury : And how is that supposed to prove to me you're not a Skrull?
Carol Danvers : That's a photon blast.
Nick Fury : And?
Carol Danvers : [as if it's obvious] A Skrull can't do that.
-
Nick Fury : The Skrulls sim alien races to infiltrate and take over planets. And you're a Kree? A race of noble warriors?
Carol Danvers : Heroes. Noble warrior heroes.
Nick Fury : So, um, what do Skrulls want with Dr. Lawson?
Carol Danvers : They believe that she developed a light-speed engine at Pegasus.
Nick Fury : Light-speed engine? Gotta admit, that's not the craziest thing I've heard today.
Carol Danvers : Well, it's still early.
Nick Fury : And you, what do you want?
Carol Danvers : To stop the Skrulls before they become unstoppable.
-
Medical Examiner : All life on Earth is carbon-based. Not this guy. Whatever he runs on, it's not on the periodic table.
Nick Fury : You're saying he's not from around here?
Medical Examiner : How's your eye?
Nick Fury : Well, I'd say fine, but it can't believe what it's seeing.
-
Keller : You say this thing looked like Coulson?
Nick Fury : Mm. Talked like him, too.
Keller : And the woman said that there were more?
Nick Fury : The word she used was "infiltration."
Keller : You believe her?
Nick Fury : Not 'til I saw this.
Keller : What's your plan?
Nick Fury : I'll find Blockbuster girl. I got word on a motorcycle thief that fits her description. If she can tell us why these lizards are here... maybe she can tell us how to kick 'em to the curb.
Keller : Good. Do it alone, though. We can't trust anyone. Not even our own men.
-
Talos : I know I don't deserve your trust, but you were our only lead. We discovered that your energy signature matched Mar-Vell's core. Now we know why. If only you knew the importance of it to me. I just need your help decoding the coordinates to Mar-Vell's lab.
Carol Danvers : Those weren't coordinates. They're state vectors.
Nick Fury : For orbital positioning and velocity.
Maria Rambeau : You didn't find her lab on Earth 'cause it's not on Earth.
Carol Danvers : That was the location on the date of the crash six years ago. If we track its course, we'll find it in orbit right now.
Maria Rambeau : It's just basic physics.
Talos : In orbit?
[to another Skrull]
Talos : Was that so difficult to figure out? I mean, you're my science guy, right?
-
Carol Danvers : Yon-Rogg will catch up to me soon. We've got to get to the core before he does.
Nick Fury : Mm. We going to space?
Carol Danvers : In what?
Norex : A few tweaks to your vessel should do it. I can handle the modifications.
Nick Fury : [to Talos] Mmm. Your science guy.
-
Carol Danvers : Is that a communicator?
Nick Fury : Yeah. State-of-the-art two-way pager.
Carol Danvers : Who are you paging?
Nick Fury : My mom. Don't worry, I didn't mention you.
