Alicia Masters
- Ben Grimm: [shaking head sadly, trying to make Alicia understand] You don't know what it's like out there. Walking around like some kind of circus freak. People staring, whispering...
- Alicia Masters: [sarcastically] I wouldn't know anything about that.
- Ben Grimm: [instantly contrite] I mean...
- Reed Richards: Ben, I've been crunching the numbers on the machine. I think if we can rework the power settings...
- Ben Grimm: [casually] Forget it, egghead. I'm good as is.
- Alicia Masters: [approaches and hands Ben a large metal mug of beer] Better than good, baby.
- [they clink glasses causing hers to shatter]
- Alicia Masters: You just... need to work on your touch.
- Ben Grimm: [hugging her and smiling widely] I like the sound of that.
- Ben Grimm: [after he accidentally shatters his vat of alcohol] If there is a God, he hates me.
- Alicia Masters: *She* is not so into hate.
- Ben Grimm: You know, you could'a run an ad in the personals.
- Alicia Masters: Sensual blind chick seeks three-ton, rock-hard he-man for deep spiritual relationship.
- Ben Grimm: [sounding more hopeful than realistic] This ain't permanent. My friend Reed is working on a cure... I think.
- Alicia Masters: Bennie... you feel good 'as is'.
- Alicia Masters: [to Ben] Tell me, when you grew up in Brooklyn, how many astronauts did you know? You went your own way then. You didn't listen to people. So why start now?
- Alicia Masters: [at the art gallery, with Ben] Look around. I'll get us drinks. They always let blind girls cut the line.
- Alicia Masters: [heading toward the door] See you later, Ben.
- [pauses and turns around]
- Alicia Masters: I'm Alicia, by the way.
- Alicia Masters: You know, being different isn't always a bad thing.
- Ben Grimm: Trust me, this ain't one of them times.
- Alicia Masters: Not if you don't want it to be.
