S1 E15Unfinished Business

[opening narration] Is man the center of the Universe made in the image of his God? Or is mankind merely the temporary occupant of an insignificant world about to be extinguished?

[closing narration] To those who would fail to heed their own words be warned: you never know who's listening.

[opening narration] As technology evolves, the means to communicate with each other become increasingly sophisticated. But will these means ever be sufficient to bridge the gaps between us... or will they only serve to pull us further apart?

[closing narration] The distances between us, so vast and so close, are so easily bridged. Not by what we make... but by what we feel.

[opening narration] A safe place, warm and quiet. A place to rest and recover. When all is said and done, isn't that what we all want? A safe place in someone's home... or someone's heart?

[closing narration] A poet once wrote, "In dreams begins responsibility." So too, perhaps, with love. Without dreams, without the hope of a better life, a brighter future, it is difficult for love to flourish. And without love... there are no dreams.

[opening narration] Perhaps, how we face death is not as important as how we face life. To live each day with hope, with courage and with love... as if it were our last.

[closing narration] Moonlight can drive man to madness and lovers to swoon, but this night, for one last and glorious moment, it shines bright as a grim harbinger of dawn.

[opening narration] The Bible says, "Judge not, for ye shall be judged." If we look beyond the weaknesses of those among us we call feeble, we may find surprising power buried within.

[closing narration] Mankind puts the strong, the athletic, the genius, on a pedestal. If we treated the less fortunate among us as equals, we would see that they can also become heroes.

[opening narration] On the long road between cradle and grave, we travel alone. It is not the blind and random circumstances of our birth which determine the quality of our journey. That is decided by the choices made along the way.

[closing narration] Why do we need to belong? Is it for the fellowship of others? Or is it the fear of being left... out in the cold?

[opening narration] When the machinations of fear collide with man's inventive genius, the result can be both irreversible and terrifying.

[Repeated line]

LSLinden Styles

They can change my body, but they cannot touch my soul...

[After the aliens appear to take Styles to safety, regarding his would-be executioners with disappointment]

EKDr. Ellen Kersaw

My God...

MMaculhaney

Relax, Doctor. They've gone.

EKDr. Ellen Kersaw

You don't get it, do you?

MMaculhaney

Get what?

EKDr. Ellen Kersaw

We failed the test, Mr. Maculhaney.

MMaculhaney

What are you talking about?

EKDr. Ellen Kersaw

We failed the aliens' test! They were testing us! They set us up! They put the bodies in there to see what we would do! Do you understand?! They were testing us!
