Sofi
- Sofi: Do you know the story of the Phasianidae?
- Ian: The... No, what's that?
- Sofi: It's a bird that experiences all of time in one instant. And she sings the song of love and anger and fear and joy and sadness all at once. And this bird... when she meets the love of her life... is both happy and sad. Happy because she sees that for him it is the beginning, and sad because she knows it is already over.
- Sofi: How many senses do worms have?
- Ian: They have two. Smell and touch. Why?
- Sofi: So... they live without any ability to see or even know about light, right? The notion of light to them is unimaginable.
- Ian: Yeah.
- Sofi: But we humans... we know that light exists. All around them... right on top of them... they cannot sense it. But with a little mutation, they do. Right?
- Ian: Correct.
- Sofi: So... Doctor Eye... perhaps some humans, rare humans... have mutated to have another sense. A spirit sense. And can perceive a world that is right on top of us... everywhere. Just like the light on these worms.
- Ian: I don't believe in luck. I do believe we've known each other since forever, though.
- Sofi: Really?
- Ian: Yeah. You know how? When the big bang happened, all the atoms in the universe, they were all smashed together into one little dot that exploded outward. So my atoms and your atoms were certainly together then, and, who knows, probably smashed together several times in the last 13.7 billion years. So my atoms have known your atoms and they've always known your atoms. My atoms have always loved your atoms.
- Sofi: You know you have it.
- Ian: Have what?
- Sofi: But you're scared of it.
- Ian: I have what?
- Sofi: Okay. You live in this room, right?
- Ian: Mm-hmm.
- Sofi: Reality. You have a bed, you have books, um, a desk, a chair, lamps. Logic. But in this room, you have a door... to the other side. See? Light comes through. It's open just a tiny bit, but it is open. You keep trying to close that door because you're scared. But you won't always be scared.
- Ian: What's behind the door? Besides my dirty laundry.
- Sofi: You have to go in to find out. You know what I'm talking about.
- Ian: I have no idea.
- Sofi: You will.
- Ian: I do believe we've known each other since forever.
- Sofi: Really?
- Ian: Yes. You know how? When the Big Bang happened, all the atoms in the universe were all smashed together into one little dot that exploded outward, so my atoms and your atoms were certainly together then and... who knows, probably smashed together several times in the last 13.7 billion years, so my atoms have known your atoms and they've always known your atoms. My atoms have always loved your atoms.
