A scene from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 2017
Quill

So, I guess this could all be mine someday.

Gamora

Rocket? Rocket, are you there? [No call, but static on a caller, while she tries to get better signal, Quill touches her] What are you doing, Peter?

Quill

Dance with me.

Gamora

I'm not going to dance with you.

Quill

This is Sam Cooke, one of the greatest earth singers of all time. [They are dancing] Drax thinks you're not a dancer.

Gamora

If you ever tell anyone about this, I will kill you.

Quill

When are we gonna do something about this unspoken thing between us?

Gamora

What unspoken thing?

Quill

This Cheers, Sam and Diane, a guy and a girl on a TV show who dig each other, but never say it because if they do, the ratings would go down sort of thing.

Gamora

There's no unspoken thing.

Quill

Well, it's a catch-22 because if you said it, then it would be spoken and you would be a liar. So, by not saying it you are telling the truth and admitting that there is.

Gamora

No, that's not what I… [They stop dancing] What we should be discussing right now is something about this place. It doesn't feel right.

Quill

What are you talking about? You're the one who wanted me to come here!

Gamora

That girl Mantis; she's afraid of something.

Quill

Why are you trying to take this away from me?

Gamora

I'm not trying.

Quill

He's my father. He's blood.

Gamora

You have blood on Earth and you never wanted to return there.

Quill

Again, you made me come here! And Earth is the place where my mother died right in front of me.

Gamora

No, it's because that place is real, and this is a fantasy.

Quill

This is real! I'm only half-human, remember?

Gamora

That's the half I'm worried about.

Quill

Oh, I get it. You're jealous because I'm part-god, and you like when I'm the weak one.

Gamora

You were insufferable to begin with. I haven't been able to reach Rocket. I'm gonna go outside and I'm gonna try and get a signal.

Quill

You know what? This is not Cheers after all! This is whatever the show is where one person is willing to open themselves up to new possibility, and the other person is a jerk who doesn't trust anybody! It's a show that doesn't exist! That's why it would get zero ratings!

Gamora

I don't know what Cheers is!

Quill

I finally found my family. Don't you understand that?

Gamora

I thought you already had. [Leaves]
