We saved paradise, by introducing the serpent.
I gave my word to your pride. My word is the foundation of the Commonwealth.
I have never met anyone who thought like that... Probably because the universe kills them before they can reproduce.
So, why is it, whenever anyone goes on a suicide mission, they take my ship?
Because it has seatbelts.
After the way I've treated you, how can you care what happens to me?
I care because I'm human.
You're starting a war.
No, YOU are starting a war. I'm just re-arranging the sides.
We're facing the second baddest ship in the known universe and our AI is making moonie eyes at Mr. Tall, Spark, and Handsome!
AAAndromeda AI
Why shouldn't I? [Corrects Herself]—she?
To quote the ancient masters: “pronoun trouble”! You're distracted—don't deny it!
AAAndromeda AI
I am perfectly capable of handling sensor scans and personal relationships simultaneously.
So you admit—you're having a relationship with him!
AAAndromeda AI
What's wrong with that? All sentients seek to establish a relationship with their own.
Love is merely a trick the DNA plays to replicate itself.
AAAndromeda AI
I don't have DNA.
My point exactly! Are the two of you planning to procreate? Will there be a nursery full of little grav sleds and data disks?
Well, here's the happy groom now. I feel like I should have prepared a toast.
I think I've got one: Here's to Gabriel. Be nice to Rommie, or I'll rip your head off.
I killed him, Dylan. I loved him, and I killed him. [Crying]
You had no choice.
No, I didn't. Because I'm a warship, and warships only know how to do one thing, and that's kill. We don't have hearts. We don't have empathy. We're killers. We're attack dogs. And I'm afraid. The Balance of Judgment went insane, the Pax Magellanic went insane, and I don't want that to happen to me.
You're forgetting something. The Balance of Judgment had no captain, no crew. The Pax lost her captain. Why do you think warships have captains in the first place? I'm your heart, Rommie. I always will be.
[Calming Down a bit] These physical reactions. I didn't know Harper was so good.
The Commonwealth needs you, Andromeda. The crew needs you. I need you. So, permission to chop yourself into pieces is officially denied.
No one's reached Tarn-Vedra in 300 years, and better pilots than you have died trying.
There are no better pilots than me.
RRev
If the universe is a manifestation of the Divine, could not the slipstream be the very mind of God?
Well, if that's the case, then I'm afraid God had a seizure and forgot all about Tarn-Vedra.
And here comes God's little brain surgeon.
Did you know that 82% of people on prison planets are Flash addicts?
Y'know what? They tell you that kind of stuff just to scare you.
Sure, to scare you out of killing your neighbors.
Is that an order, Captain? My Captain? Oh, I forget. Actually, you're not a real Captain, are you? There's no High Guard. There's no commissioned officers. Who around here is an actual Captain? Don't, don't, don't tell me. Let me guess. It's coming to me, It's coming to me. Let's see, that would be me.
Sometimes you just have to allow people to make the mistakes they need to make.
We needed a Plan B. You always have a Plan B.
Yes, but my Plan B's work.
