• Dr. Rose : Queenie, some creatures weren't meant to survive.

  Queenie : [observing Benjamin]  Mm-mm, no, this baby here is a miracle, that's for certain...

  [turns to Dr. Rose] 

  Queenie : just like the kind of miracle one hopes to see.

  [Dr. Rose shrugs in defeat] 

• Dr. Rose : Where'd he come from?

  Queenie : My sister's child. From Lafayette. She had an unfortunate adventure. The poor child, he got the worst of it. Come out white.

• Thomas Button : [runs upstairs to see Caroline and his newborn but sees a room full of people and Caroline bleeding. Soon, the pastor enters the room]  What are you doing here?

  Dr. Rose : Thomas. It's Caroline. She's going to die.

  Thomas Button : No. No, I want all of you out! Get away from her!

  [runs to Caroline and takes her hand] 

  Thomas Button : I'm here. I came as soon as I could. The streets were wild. The war is over, Carrie.

  Caroline Button : [whispers]  Promise me he'll have a place.

  Thomas Button : [confused]  I... I promise.

  [Caroline draws her last breath and dies]
