- Portia Lin: Android, any progress establishing a neural link?
- The Android: Not yet. As I stated earlier, connection is theoretically possible, but such a function was not part of this ship's original design.
- Wexler: What's with the no-can-do attitude?
- The Android: That wasn't pessimism; simply a statement of fact, like, "We stole a ship," "We're flying through space," or, "I could detach your head with minimal effort."
- Wexler: Okay.
- The Android: Minimal...
- Wexler: Yeah.
- The Android: ...effort.
- Wexler: Okay. I got it. Testy robot.
- Adrian Maro: After really thinking about it, it's become obvious: we don't belong here. I hate to say it, and I'm sure they'll hate to hear it...
- Solara Shockley: I'm sure they'll be fine hearing it.
- Adrian Maro: [sighs] I'll let 'em know tonight, at dinner.
- Five: [entering his room] Hey, Adrian, we need your help with something.
- [leaves again]
- Adrian Maro: On the other hand...
- Three: You really think your Boone's gonna convince anyone he's me? Fat chance.
- Tash: Little while back, you had me convinced you were him.
- Three: Yeah, but that's 'cause I'm a better actor.
- Tash: I do recall some performance issues.
- Three: I bailed on you. There was no performance.
- Tash: [laughs] Oh, I recall that opening overture.
- Three: You never had a chance to experience the crescendo, baby.
- Tash: That's because I was disappointed in your pianissimo.
- Three: Okay. I think we've exhausted the musical euphemisms. Can we go back to threatening each other's lives?
- Adrian Maro: I do have other clients out there. As much as I'd love to, i can't just be working with you exclusively.
- Three: We'll try to hide our disappointment.
- Adrian Maro: They're the galaxy's most wanted. Legends. And we're useless.
- Solara Shockley: Speak for yourself.
- Adrian Maro: Because of us, they almost got killed on that Traugott colony, got trapped in a time loop, got sent off on a wild-goose chase...
- Solara Shockley: Uh, again, I need to point out, that was all you.
- other Android: The missiles, the payment, and your crew member have been deposited in a clearing 1.42 kilometers northeast of this location.
- [pause]
- other Android: As agreed upon.
- The Android: And your crew members have been deposited in a clearing 1.63 kilometers southwest of here.
- [pause]
- The Android: As agreed upon.
- [Continues]
- The Android: I'm afraid I had to restrain them.
- other Android: Oh, I restrained your crew member as well. I also found it necessary to gag him.
- The Android: Understandable.
- other Boone: Boone?
- other Portia Lin: I'd say "the one and only," but lately, that doesn't seem to be the case.
- other Portia Lin: Glad to see you're taking this seriously.
- other Boone: For your information, i was only pretending to sleep.
- other Portia Lin: Hmm.
- other Boone: It's much easier to eavesdrop when no one knows you're listening.
- other Portia Lin: Right, so the snoring was just for show?
- other Boone: I had to convince them.
- other Portia Lin: And the drool?
- other Boone: It's the little details that make it work.
- Two: I already told you, in the alternate universe, the crew of the raza never lost their memories.
- Adrian Maro: I know, but I was kinda thinking the alternate me might be something different.
- Solara Shockley: Like what?
- Adrian Maro: Oh, I don't know. Concert pianist?
- [They scoff]
- Adrian Maro: My mom said I had a gift.
- Adrian Maro: Oh, it's hard to describe exactly the feeling of having a gun pointed at you. What a rush. It really puts life into perspective. I mean, just look at this sky. I... I've never seen it so blue and vibrant.
- Wexler: Okay, can someone just knock me unconscious and drag me the rest of the way? I cannot listen to any more of this.
- Two: I've already killed you once. Please don't ask me to do it again.
- Wexler: Wait, is that what happened to the me in this reality? 'Cause I looked him up. He went missing a month ago. I figured he was just keeping a low profile.
- Two: Yeah, you think you're capable of that?
- Wexler: Hell, no. I mean, you killing me makes a lot more sense. How'd you do me?
- Two: How did I *do* you? I spaced you.
- Wexler: Damn. That's cold.
- The Android: It's pointless for your crew to come after the blink drive. It's been damaged beyond repair.
- other Android: Are you being deceptive?
- The Android: No.
- other Android: In that case, I will advise my crew of the fact and recommend we not pursue your ship.
- The Android: Are you being deceptive now?
- other Android: No.
- Sergeant Halsek: Commander, the all missiles and most of the cash accounted for.
- Commander Truffault: "Most"?
- Two: Minus a modest service charge. We don't work for free.
