- Norrie Calvert-Hill: Do you ever wonder why it picked us?
- Joe McAlister: Sure, but I'm mainly just glad it did.
- Norrie Calvert-Hill: Excuse me?
- Joe McAlister: it's weird and it's scary, but it's the first time anything like this has happened on Earth. That's awesome in the true "awe" sense of awesome. Uh, not to mention, if it hadn't come down, I might not have met you.
- Norrie Calvert-Hill: Anything from the dome?
- Joe McAlister: I didn't feel anything, like a seizure.
- Norrie Calvert-Hill: Me neither. Unfortunately.
- Joe McAlister: Maybe we're going about it all wrong. I-I mean, we've touched it. We've talked to it.
- Norrie Calvert-Hill: Made out on it.
- Joe McAlister: Which was awesome. But every single time something has happened, it's been because we did something different.
- Norrie Calvert-Hill: Joe, I'm not having sex with you for the first time against the dome.
- Joe McAlister: I didn't mean that. Wait, but you want to do that?
- Norrie Calvert-Hill: Focus.
- Waylon Dundee: Nobody move! Or I'll blow your head off!
- Harriet Arnold: My God, what do we do?
- Julia Shumway: We do exactly what they say.
- Harriet Arnold: I can't believe we're being gas-jacked.
- Norrie Calvert-Hill: [Waking him up] I want you to come with me to the dome. So we can figure all this out. See how we're really connected to it.
- Joe McAlister: Just because Dodee's gadget thing beeped at us doesn't mean that...
- Norrie Calvert-Hill: Listen. Something happened when we both touched it. It was like we had powers or something. Don't you think that's amazing?
- Joe McAlister: It's not exactly the word I'd use.
- Norrie Calvert-Hill: Well, you should. Let's go see if we can talk to it or something. See what the dome wants, and convince it to go away.
- Joe McAlister: Can I get my pants on first?
- Norrie Calvert-Hill: Can I watch?
- [Joe is stunned silent]
- Norrie Calvert-Hill: Kidding.
- Norrie Calvert-Hill: Do you think we're getting closer?
- Joe McAlister: About five miles from the wall. We've been going perfectly southwest. Shouldn't be too far now.
- Norrie Calvert-Hill: If we ever get out of here, you should seriously consider a career in cartography.
- Ollie Dinsmore: Hey, Jimmy. I hear you had a little run-in with the new security guard at your old propane warehouse.
- James 'Big Jim' Rennie: Had worse.
- Ollie Dinsmore: Well, I hate to see my old friend sittin' here, licking his wounds like a fat-ass cat. So I'll be brief. Earlier, you said we should be working together. But you see, I got the well. And unless I'm wrong, I got more crops than you townies, and now I got the propane. So unless you want your beloved Chester's Mill to starve to death you'll toe the line. You see, it's my turn to have my sweaty hand wrapped around this town's neck. So from now on, when I say "Jump," you say, "How high?" Didn't I say it was a nice new dawn this morning?
- Norrie Calvert-Hill: I knew something was wrong.
- Alice Calvert: How?
- Norrie Calvert-Hill: I saw you in the woods. It was like the dome wanted me to. I sound crazy.
- Alice Calvert: It's all crazy. I helped a woman give birth. She said the dome made her see her husband. And now there's a new Alice here. It all must matter.
- Harriet Arnold: I can't do this without my husband. I can't.
- Alice Calvert: Harriet. Harriet, listen to me.
- Harriet Arnold: I can't do this.
- Alice Calvert: This happens every day. You can do this.
- Harriet Arnold: This is not every day, Alice. This isn't right bringing someone into a world like this.
- Julia Shumway: Harriet, you are gonna be a wonderful mother. Do you remember when we first met? You showed me the sonogram, and you couldn't contain yourself.
- Harriet Arnold: There's no hope with people behaving this way. And it's only gonna get worse, isn't it? With all of us trapped under this thing? Isn't it?
- Julia Shumway: You don't know that.
- Dale 'Barbie' Barbara: Okay, Harriet, Harriet, Harriet. Look at me. Look at me. Good things happened today. Right? Some people, they're always gonna show up. Now, we're here. All right? We're not going anywhere, but I'm gonna need you to show up, too.
