Quotes 

• Captain Dylan Hunt : Even in the days of the Commonwealth, Inaris was considered a backwater world. These people were unpredictable. After three centuries of struggle, I'm just not sure they can be trusted.

  Trance Gemini : So why don't you just let me go and I'll find out. What?

  Captain Dylan Hunt : Nothing, nothing. It's, er, it's just you as a spy.

  Trance Gemini : They'll never know what hit them.

• Professor Logitch : You were telling me about your world.

  Trance Gemini : Oh, which one?

  Professor Logitch : Well, the one you were born on.

  Trance Gemini : Oh, no, I wasn't born on any world. I was born in space.

  Professor Logitch : But, I thought... all right, Well, let's talk about, er, let's talk about the world you were raised on, then.

  Trance Gemini : But there are so many.

• Professor Logitch : We're trying to develop biological weapons to defend ourselves against your kind, should you launch a full scale assault.

  Trance Gemini : No offense, Professor, but your backwater rock is hardly worth the effort. And believe me, if my kind wanted to destroy you, it would take a lot less than a full scale assault.

  Professor Logitch : Is that what he wanted to do, the one who came before you? To destroy us?

  Trance Gemini : Like I told you before, I do not know who that was or what he wanted, but most likely he was just bored.

  Professor Logitch : Bored?

  Trance Gemini : When you have seen and you have done as much as we have, the universe starts feeling a little small and stagnant, so you learn to make your own fun.

  Professor Logitch : Are you telling me that everything that we've been through, the wars, the famines, the deaths, were all diversions for a monster? May God forgive me.

• Professor Logitch : But your shipmates... do they know what you really are?

  Trance Gemini : They know as much as they need to know. That I am their friend.

  Professor Logitch : But if you tell them what happened down here...

  Trance Gemini : I won't, and neither will you.

  Professor Logitch : So what happens to us? Are we going to be your little toys, too?

  Trance Gemini : No, I'm not that bored. The universe is a mess. I've got plenty of things to keep me busy.

• Captain Dylan Hunt : That was it? They just described it to you?

  Trance Gemini : A little bit, but, I think when they saw how much it upset me, they decided they had better not talk about it any more.

  Captain Dylan Hunt : That was very considerate of them.

  Trance Gemini : You're mad at them, aren't you? They should have been honest with you from the beginning.

  Captain Dylan Hunt : I can't make alliances until I know exactly who I'm dealing with, or at least until I know I can trust them.

  Trance Gemini : Aren't those the same thing?

  Captain Dylan Hunt : Usually, but there are those few rare exceptions. Glad you're back.
