Rommie quotes from Andromeda

Our entire defense fleet…

Dylan

Rommie, how long would it take for you to destroy that fleet?

6.2 seconds.

Dylan

That long?

You are just like Tyr!

No, I'm better.

I can pick up galvanic skin responses and respiration changes. I can also analyze pupil dilations in real time, which makes me a walking lie detector. So, tell me the truth, or I'll turn the bones of your hand into calcified gelatin.

Absolutely! Absolutely!

What do you know? He's not lying.

Tyr

The AIs are machines – they should do as they're told, or be discarded as defective.

They're not machines, Tyr, they're sentient beings, soldiers.

Tyr

Then perhaps Milla has a point. Perhaps the Commonwealth did treat their AIs as slaves. But you would know better than I.

The Commonwealth is still hailing us, and they're mad. They say this is the last warning.

Tyr

That's what they said five "last warnings" ago.

Beka

They're waiting for authorization. God bless bureaucracy!

Dylan

Tell you what, Rommie - after we finally finish building our castle, and all the dragons have been slain, why don't we point out the farthest star, and see what's out there? Just you and me.

You've got a deal.

Dylan

Good.

Beka

You know, ever since we reestablished the Commonwealth, I've been wondering; is it really necessary that we risk life and limb every time somebody gets in trouble?

We're the good guys, Beka. We fight the bad guys.

… We need to catch one if we want to classify it.

Dylan

I don't want to classify it, unless we classify it as dead, and off my ship.

Dylan, are you worried that the anti-oxidation containment field around the Maru might be disintegrating?

Dylan

Well, I am now.

Good thing, 'cause it is.

Beka

We're not dead!

Don't be so surprised.

I guess that's why they call space a vacuum

No. They call space a vacuum because-

-space is a vacuum.

Harper?

Yes, O glorious creation of mine with the world's crappiest timing?

Trance, miracles are just extraordinary phenomena with a scientific explanation.

See?

Trance

Well, for those who don't believe, no explanation is possible. For those who do, no explanation is necessary.

Beka

Freeze!

Don't move!

Trance

Stay right there!

Oh my God, you're hot! [holsters gun] Harper, Seamus Harper, nice to-

Beka

Seamus!

[reluctantly pulls gun again] What they said.

It is good to be smart.

Not to mention hot.
