Katherine Heigl: Isabel Evans

Quotes 

• Isabel : [Taping themselves with a video camera]  We want you to know that we love you so much. We're orphans, we could have ended up anywhere, with anyone, but we got you. What is it they say? There but for the grace of God. I'm sorry, I'm sorry to leave you, but we have to go. I wish we didn't, I wish I could just be your girl forever, but um...

  Max : You were great parents to us. We will always, always love you. Thank you, for everything. And goodbye.

  [Turns off camera] 

• Max : [to Liz]  I've been really wrong about a lot. But I was right about one thing. To get you into my life, to be around you. To love you.

  Maria : [to Michael]  You opened the door and you came out, why?

  [Michael doesn't say anything] 

  Maria : You stayed for me.

  Isabel : What happens now, Max?

  Max : I have to save my son.

• Isabel : What if I said I wanted to stay?

  Max : When we came out of the pods and we lost Michael, it was just the two of us in the desert and I knew that I wasn't alone - that I had my sister. To me, earth isn't home and whatever's out there isn't home but you're my home.

• [Isabel is kneeling at Alex's grave] 

  Isabel : How can I leave now? I haven't even lived yet.

  Alex Whitman : I know how scary it is to have to leave. To leave this world. But as it turns out... it's not so bad. Your heart is your heart; your soul is your soul. That doesn't change.

  Isabel : Why should I listen to you? You're not even real. You're just a figment of my imagination.

  Alex Whitman : Well, then you should really listen, because it's coming from within you. Go home.

  Isabel : Home to what? I was a terrible person where I come from. I betrayed my whole family. What is home, anyway? Half of me is from there. Half of me is from here. What makes one half more important than the other?

  Alex Whitman : I think that's what you have to figure out.

  Isabel : Yeah. Alex, that night. That night at the prom when we danced. It was one of the best nights of my life and I never got to tell you that.

  Alex Whitman : [Alex holds his hand out for her]  Milady.

  [They dance] 

• Micheal : Max, I can't go. Ever since we came out of the pods, I've been on some quest to figure out where I belong. I finally found home. The weird thing is... it's here. It's on Earth.

  Max : You of all people...

  [They hug] 

  Max : Take care of yourself, Michael. I love you.

  Micheal : You're a great brother.

  Max : [to Isabel]  I would understand...

  Isabel : What you said before... You're my home too.

• [Max gets out of the Granolith chamber] 

  Isabel : MAX!

  Max : Quick, go. Let's go!

  [Max, Liz, Michael, Maria, Isabel and Kyle run away from the chamber, and stand to watch as the chamber disintegrates and a ship shoots out into the sky] 

  Max : [to Liz]  I've been really wrong about a lot. But I was right about one thing: To get you into my life, to be around you, to love you.

  Maria : [to Michael]  You opened the door and you came out - why?

  [It dawns on her] 

  Maria : You stayed for me.

  Isabel : What happens now, Max?

  Max : I have to save my son...

• Isabel : So what now Max?

  Max : We save my son.
