- Doyle: What tone? All I said was holographic artificial intelligence.
- Andromeda Ascendant: Tone meaning attitude, the underlying emotion of sarcasm.
- Trance Gemini: There's work that needs to be done here, guys.
- Andromeda Ascendant: I control all functions on this starship. You may access me at points which I determine and mediate.
- Doyle: On the other hand, I have a body and am free to walk around.
- Andromeda Ascendant: Then you are also free to leave and not come back.
- Trance Gemini: Okay, I'm going to the SEC. You can call me when you're friends, okay? Okay.

- Beka Valentine: The vertical?
- Seamus Harper: Right.

- Beka Valentine: We have plenty of interference, Harper. That's kind of the problem.
- Seamus Harper: Right, of course. Insulation? We need insulation.
