- Ed Mercer: [escaping a Krill attack] Doc, is there another way out of here?
- Dr. Aronov: There's an old loading conduit, but it's across the atrium.
- Dr. Claire Finn: We're gonna have to sprint for it.
- Ed Mercer: All right, get ready.
- Kelly Grayson: Doc, stay behind Alara.
- Dr. Aronov: Which one's Alara?
- Alara Kitan: [stepping forward] Oh, I'm Alara.
- Dr. Aronov: Sorry. Still learning names.
- Ed Mercer: You knew what Arbor Day was, right?
- Kelly Grayson: I mean, actually, I had to think a second. Kind of confusing.
- Ed Mercer: Nobody knows what Arbor Day is.
- Bortus: No.
- Alara Kitan: No.
- Dr. Aronov: I knew.
- Ed Mercer: Well, what would you have said?
- Kelly Grayson: I would have said... "You got wood."
- Gordon Malloy: [the crew laughs] Yeah. Yes.
- Ed Mercer: Yeah, that is better, isn't it?
- Ed Mercer: All right, Lieutenant Alara Kitan, our chief of security.
- Alara Kitan: Yes, sir.
- Ed Mercer: You're Xelayan, right?
- Alara Kitan: I am, sir.
- Gordon Malloy: Wait. Don't you guys have, like, super strength?
- Alara Kitan: Xelaya's gravitational pull is high compared to the planetary average, so, yes, in Earth normal gravity, my physical strength is elevated.
- Ed Mercer: Lieutenant, how old are you?
- Alara Kitan: 23.
- Ed Mercer: You're 23, and you're chief of security on a starship?
- Alara Kitan: Xelayans don't usually join the military, so when one of us does, the Union generally fast-tracks us.
- Ed Mercer: Well, I'm... I'm sure they know what they're doing.
- Isaac: The captain does not appear to be pleased at the arrival of his first officer. Why is this?
- Gordon Malloy: 'Cause she's a total bitch.
- Alara Kitan: Do you know her?
- Gordon Malloy: Oh, yeah. They were married.
- Alara Kitan: No way.
- Gordon Malloy: She cheated on him.
- John LaMarr: Aw, damn, that's cold.
- Gordon Malloy: Yeah, so this should be a really fun trip for all of us.
- Isaac: Your description of the occurrence indicates unpleasantness, yet you believe it will be fun.
- Gordon Malloy: I was being sarcastic. It's gonna suck.
- Isaac: Suck?
- Gordon Malloy: Yeah, suck. You know, like, ass, balls.
- Alara Kitan: What he means is if you don't already drink, you should probably start.
