- ETH.3n: Captain, your suit.
- Captain Nick Reyes: Took a hit in the cockpit. Left arm's torn.
- ETH.3n: Unsettling report, sir. Captain, I can't stop it. What do I do?
- Captain Nick Reyes: [coughing] Let it go, Ethan.
- ETH.3n: I can't, sir. You're my commanding officer, captain. My mission is you.
- Captain Nick Reyes: Who says?
- ETH.3n: I'm hardware, sir. Ultimately expendable.
- Captain Nick Reyes: No, no. You're my brother, Ethan.
- ETH.3n: Your talking robot brother?
- Captain Nick Reyes: Affirmative.
- ETH.3n: Yes, well, I am the handsome one, sir.
- Captain Nick Reyes: [laughs weakly] No doubt... looks like this is the end of the line, partner.
- ETH.3n: I think I'm scared, sir.
- Captain Nick Reyes: Me, too.
- Lieutenant Nora Salter: You have feelings, Ethan?
- ETH.3n: I do, ma'am. I carry the brain of a human farmer.
- Lieutenant Nora Salter: Holy shit, are you serious?
- ETH.3n: No, ma'am. Not at all.
- Admiral Fredrick Raines: He got you, Lieutenant.
- Lieutenant Nora Salter: Did not.
- [while dropping]
- Sgt. Usef Omar: My guys, eyes on me! As far as Ethan goes, I will personally vouch for this stiff metal motherfucker! He's one of us! Ethan! What's the Navy's official policy for a gunfight?
- ETH.3n: Send in the Marines!
- [laughter]
- Sgt. Usef Omar: [to Reyes] That's for you, Captain!
- Admiral Salen Kotch: [in a speech to SDF forces] We will eradicate the authority of the Earth. Our world is just beginning; theirs is dying. It is not enough to break free. We will break them!
- Captain Maureen Ferran: [to Reyes] We had to pry Ethan's arms open. They'd frozen around you. Protecting his captain to the end.
- [to Ethan]
- Captain Maureen Ferran: Dauntless valor, Ethan.
- ETH.3n: Boundless terror, ma'am.
- Captain Nick Reyes: [to a tech escorting Ethan] Be careful with him.
- ETH.3n: Captain, please. I can look after myself.
- Captain Nick Reyes: Ethan, go to Engineering, see Mac, get a clean bill.
- ETH.3n: What about you, sir?
- Captain Nick Reyes: Don't you worry about me.
- ETH.3n: Try and stop me, sir.
- Admiral Salen Kotch: How many did you come with?
- Wolf: We're it.
- Admiral Salen Kotch: What about the airship we shot down?
- Wolf: My men need medical.
- Admiral Salen Kotch: You care about your men?
- [He draws his pistol, aims it at Sipes... then shifts aim and shoots one of his own men, venting his spacesuit and leaving him to slowly suffocate]
- Admiral Salen Kotch: Care clouds judgment. That is why you cannot win. This place... isn't yours anymore.

- Sgt. Usef Omar: You just do what you did at the Gateway and we'll zip this place right up.
- Captain Nick Reyes: Proud to be of service, Sergeant.
- Sgt. Usef Omar: Pride is one-hundred percent bona-fide bullshit, Captain. You just make sure the mission comes first.
- Captain Nick Reyes: Copy that. I'm sure the Sergeant is well aware that the word "proud" is right in the Navy creed?
- Sgt. Usef Omar: I knew there was something I didn't like about you sons of bitches. That explains the white uniform and the submarines.
- Captain Nick Reyes: Submarines?
- Sgt. Usef Omar: Yeah, only the Navy could build a ship designed to sink.
- [They laugh]
