Quotes

[after everyone else leaves the Granolith Chamber]
Max : [to Tess] Did you kill Alex?
Tess : I didn't want to. I wish I hadn't, but I did.
Max : Why?
Tess : Look Max, the-the clock's ticking, we don't really have time...
Max : Tell me why!
Tess : He would have told you what I did and I couldn't let that happen.
Max : So you just, you just killed him?
Tess : I didn't mean to. His brain was just so weakened by the mindwarp, and... look, none of this matters now.
Max : Life matters Tess. My life, your life, his...
Tess : What matters is getting home, but you could never understand that could you? I might have been able to teach you but that stupid bitch had you wrapped around her...
Max : Don't you ever call her that!
Tess : See! Look how fast you run to her defense! Why couldn't you ever feel that about me? I'm your wife, Max! I'm carrying your child!
Max : This was all some kind of plan to get pregnant and go home, wasn't it? Home to what, Tess? To Kivar? To our enemies?
Tess : They're not my enemies, Max.
Max : You made a deal with them, with Kivar.
Tess : No, Nacedo made a deal, 40 years ago.
Max : What was the deal? Tell me!
Tess : To return home with your child, and deliver the three of you to Kivar.
Max : And what would happen to us once you delivered us?
[Tess doesn't answer]
Max : How did I ever fall in love with someone like you? How could I ever marry you?
Tess : You were different - you were a king! Now you're just a boy.
[Max raises his hand to Tess' neck]
Tess : You kill me, Max, you kill our son.
Max : [agonized] Go. This isn't over, Tess
[Max leaves the Granolith chamber]

Tess : [Tess kisses Max, and gets a flash of him kissing Liz earlier in the episode] You kissed Liz. Don't worry. You won't remember her where we're going
