Quotes 

• Gaia : Wheeler - what have you *done*?

  Wheeler : I stopped being a Planeteer so I wouldn't die in an ice-cave. That's all.

  Gaia : No, that's *not* all. You've changed history; look!

  Wheeler : [glances behind where she points to see a man in a tank-top sit on a curb then take out a newspaper to fan himself, wipes his own forehead]  Yeah. It's hot. And it was cold, a minute ago. But wait a second!

  [whirls back to her] 

  Wheeler : How could I change the weather? All I did was quit the Planeteers!

• Wheeler : [of Greedly and Rigger's time-travel that caused the increased global-warming]  Why didn't Captain Planet stop them?

  Gaia : Captain Planet does *not exist*. You changed history. You never joined the Planeteers, so there *are* no Planeteers. They each went their own separate ways.

  Wheeler : [sees the Time Pool's image of the others parting]  Aw, c'mon, Gaia, you could've found someone else to be a Planeteer instead of me.

  Gaia : No. Each individual has a unique role to play. You were supposed to set an example for countless others.

• Wheeler : [about to enter the future]  Man, I'll see all the progress, the new inventions... This is *excellent*!

  Gaia : We'll see if you like what you find.

• Gaia : MAL, send Wheeler into the future.

  MAL : Oh, really? What if I refuse?

  Gaia : You're right near the North Pole. What if the Earth's magnetic field suddenly gets a lot more... powerful?

  MAL : [looks worried as he begins to shake and sport static]  Wait...

  [something bangs offscreen] 

  MAL : Ow! Don't - Stop! The magnetism will erase my data!

  [a part hits the monitor] 

  MAL : Oww! All right, I'll do it. No need to get geophysical.
