-->'''Cayde''': Watch out for those contract ninjas.
-->'''Ellie''': Wait. Do you mean contracted ninjas or ninjas armed with contracts?

** Miranda and Mesa watching Spencer beat up a bunch of replica with his bare hands.
-->'''Miranda''':That never gets old.
-->'''Mesa''': Rawr. Oh, sorry, you can’t see, I’m making these little kitty paws, because that was ''so'' sexy.
** Generally, everything that Ellie says. She's somewhere between [[WebAnimation/{{RWBY}} Penny]], [[Videogame/TalesFromTheBorderlands Gortys]], and [[Videogame/HeroesOfTheStorm Brightwing]].
-->''(While massacring Replica with a vehicle-mounted plasma cannon)'' "Cayde, you should hurry!" Ellie transmitted cheerfully. "I have successfully distracted them with horrible, burning death!"

* How XCOM's Commander secured funding for the organization despite several countries trying to pull support:
-->I called dibs on the psionics.
* Doctor Zakharov's initial findings regarding the "Flashlights:"
-->'''Zakharov''': Until we have a better name for them, I would recommend we use the designator “Flashlight” for their platforms. History has shown us that no matter what silly name the men in the field come up with for the enemy, we invariably take their capabilities seriously.
-->''(scene break)''
-->'''Random XCOM trooper''': When we get down there, I want to make one of those Flashlight heads into a hat.
* The fact that one of Zakharov's infomorph research teammembers constantly shows up as a giant black cube because everyone's autocensoring his avatar.
* Tevos and Aethyta's meeting. For context, the fact that they're talking without killing each other is a miracle in the first place.
-->'''Tevos''': Would you like a drink Aethyta?
-->'''Aethyta''': [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness Shit, this must be serious.]]
* James Vega's introduction to a horrified ATC guard.
-->Lieutenant Tamarkus glanced between the XCOM troopers, and then up over the captain’s shoulder, and then up… and up.
-->“Sup, hombre,” Private Vega growled at the nervous lieutenant’s stare.
-->“You, um. [[BearsAreBadNews You have a bear.]]”
* The abrupt, complete MoodWhiplash when Alma goes from being a CreepyChild to [[spoiler: a squeeing, happy child when she sees Vega.]]
