- Martin Shral: We have a guest coming to speak on campus this week. Princess Aleka. She will be stopping by on Earth on her way back to Sumi, where she will become the first wife of Prince Oren.
- Jacqueline 'Jax' Zhou: First wife? How many does this guy have?
- Jett Annamali: Hey, where are you going?
- Xander Duvall: I'm going to find Ralen, and I expect you to keep this between us, Cadet Annamali.
- Jett Annamali: Yeah, I will... if I can come with you.
- Xander Duvall: No, I don't think that's gonna happen.
- Jett Annamali: Look, he's my friend, too. And he needs our help.
- Jett Annamali: Those two scary dudes have been following us ever since we started nosing around asking about a Zatarian.
- Xander Duvall: Yes, thanks for that, Jett. I'm well aware.
- Jett Annamali: What do they want?
- Xander Duvall: If I were to guess, I'd say they want to kill us, harvest our organs, sell them on the black market.
- Jett Annamali: Sorry I asked.
- Xander Duvall: You're the one that wanted to be here.
- Xander Duvall: Well, you can't really think we're just going to let you leave without at least finding out whether or not you're okay.
- Greg Li: That's exactly what you're gonna do.
- Xander Duvall: Well, I was taught to never leave anyone behind.
- Greg Li: I am not some cadet under your command. This may be hard for you to accept, but for once this isn't about you, soldier boy.
- Princess Aleka: Can I not have a moment to enjoy the night before my wedding with a beautiful girl who doesn't want to kill me first?
- Jacqueline 'Jax' Zhou: The night is young.
- Jacqueline 'Jax' Zhou: I was beginning to lose my faith.
- Princess Aleka: In what?
- Jacqueline 'Jax' Zhou: Everything. Maybe that's why they sent you to me.
- Ralen: You know nothing of my pain!
- Xander Duvall: Is that so? You think you're the only one who's ever lost someone? Matta made a sacrifice for all of us. It was her choice.
- Ralen: Say another word about her, and I will kill you where you stand.
