Quotes[]
- Pilot: If I hadn't agreed to come, Velorek may never have found a replacement pilot. But, but I just wanted so desperately to see the stars.
- Aeryn Sun: Do you remember when you first came aboard? Velorek stroked your cheek like this... (She strokes Pilot's cheek) Back then, I couldn't fathom why he'd do a thing like that, and now I couldn't fathom not doing it. We've come a long way since then Pilot, and we've still got a long way to go. Take the journey with me.
....
- Aeryn Sun: Crichton, you might have noticed that at times, I've kept you at a distance.
- John Crichton: Many times... Vast distances.
- Aeryn Sun: There's a reason for that.
- John Crichton: Just one? (Pauses when he realises Aeryn is trying to open up to him) Go ahead.
- Aeryn Sun: Most Peacekeepers are bred and reared for one purpose, military service. Procreation is assigned. There's no such thing as a life-long mate.
- John Crichton: But you had relationships? The male-female kind?
- Aeryn Sun: Of course, as many and as often as you want. Peacekeeper High Command understands the troops' biological needs. Only you don't connect with anyone openly, and never with any longevity. The point is, my relationships back then tended to be somewhat...
- John Crichton: Empty?
- Aeryn Sun: Painful.
....
- John Crichton: Okay, everybody. Neutral corners. Let's chill out for a microt-we all have things in our past we'd rather not have on instant replay.
- Zotoh Zhaan: True enough, John. But I still cannot accept the cold-blooded slaughter of such a helpless creature!
- Aeryn Sun: Oh, it's perfectly fine to cut off one of it's arms then, is it Zhaan?
....
- John Crichton: Velorek said he'd always remember you. And you, have you...
- Aeryn Sun: He said that in the right new place, I would thrive.
- John Crichton: He was right.
- Aeryn Sun: You know, that time when he asked me to go with him, he said, 'You can be so much more.' That's exactly what you said to me on the first day I was here.
- John Crichton: And you say you think you love this man?
