[after the successfully remove the facehugger from Navarro she wakes up freaking out]
Rain : It's gone. It's off of you. It's off of you. It's off. It's off. It's off.
Bjorn : You're okay. You're okay.
Rook : I wouldn't be so sure.
Andy : What are the odds?
Rook : 60 to 40 against your friend.
Bjorn : What are the odds on what?
Andy : That the creatures finished it's job already.
Navarro : [weakly] What is he talking about?
Rook : Listen to me. Humans go through too many emotional stages before accepting the cold, yet rational sometimes hardest path. You must help them. You must help them.
Rain : Andy? What's going on?
Andy : I'm sorry, but we can't let her back on the ship.
Bjorn : Oh, yeah? That is a problem.
Rain : What're you doing?
Andy : You must understand.
Bjorn : You see? That's what I mean by funny ideas!
Rain : What are you talking about? No, he's...
[Bjorn zaps Andy with the taser knocking him backwards]
Rain : No! No!
Bjorn : You fucking bitch!

[Andy accidentally bumps into Bjorn]
Andy : I'm sorry.
Tyler : All right, chill. Let's keep it movin.'
Bjorn : If you do that again, I'll fuck you up. You understand.
Rain : Bjorn, back off!
Bjorn : Just as long as he stays out of my way.
Rain : Why is he being such a dick to him.
Kay : Because of what happened to his mom.
Rain : What do you mean?
Navarro : Last cycle, there was a gas leak in the mines, so a synthetic made the call to seal them with Bjorn's mom still trapped inside.
Rain : What? Synthetics can't harm humans.
Navarro : It's sacrificed three minors to save a dozen. That, they can do.
Rain : That's terrible.

Bjorn : [picks up a taser] Hey, Andy, look at this. I could probably fry a synthetic with one of these... if I just amp up the juices. Hey, you know, I might take this with me, actually. Just in case you have any fucking funny ideas.
Tyler : All right, enough.
[Andy grabs Bjorn]
Bjorn : It's a joke. I was joking. What the fuck?
[They're standing behind a giant hole in the floor melted down]
Andy : Watch out.
[They notice a synthetic that has been melted in half]
Andy : it's only a synthetic.
Bjorn : [exhales] Fuck. I thought it was a real person there for a second.
Navarro : What happened in there?
Tyler : Don't know. A chemical spill, maybe. The fuel must be in that room. Let's grab it and get the fuck out of here.

Tyler : Okay, so last night, we're loading up the last Tesotek, we're about 200 miles above the ground, and then all of a sudden...
[Bjorn imitates a beeper]
Tyler : The hauler picks up this beacon. So Navarro tracks it, and it turns out there's this big Wey-Yu ship drifting right above our heads.
Rain : Drifting?
Navarro : Decommissioned. Abandoned.
Tyler : Some old relic. It's probably damaged or obsolete.
Bjorn : [referring to Andy] Like that guy over there.
Navarro : Bjorn.
Kay : Okay, just tell her.
Tyler : Why are we all sitting around here waiting for travel permits that the company are never gonna give to us? 'Cause that hauler has enough power in it to get us to Yvaga.
Rain : Because it takes 9 years to get to Yvaga and you can't make that trip without cryo-sleep.
Tyler : Decommissioned ships still carry tons of functional equipment.
Navarro : In the hyperlink shows that ship still has a few pods left.
Rain : You want to break into a Weyland-Yutani ship and still highly regulated equipment?
Kay : Before someone else does.
Rain : [laughs] You guys are insane.
Bjorn : Well, of course we are.
Tyler : No. No we're not. This is..
Navarro : That's what I said.
Kay : Are you gonna help us?
Rain : Sorry, what do you need me for?
Bjorn : Andy. We need to use Andy.
Rain : Andy?
Tyler : He's a Weyland-Yutani synthetic. He speaks Mother. He can access a terminal on the ship to get us in and out without a fuss.
Navarro : It's the only way to get in.
Rain : Okay, but what if we get caught? It'll ruin our chances of ever getting a travel permit.
Bjorn : Right, Rain's not comin'. Uh, how about you let us take Andy then?
Rain : I'm not sending my brother up there alone.
Bjorn : He's not your brother though, is he?
Tyler : Bjorn, shut the fuck up.
Bjorn : It's true, though, isn't it? He's not your brother. It's just Wey-Yu damaged goods that your dad found in the trash. And that's all he is, Rain. So just wake up.
[Rain starts to leave]
Rain : [to Andy] Let's go.
Tyler : Rain, wait. I'm sorry. Listen, I know my cousin can be a dick sometimes, all right? But he is right about something. You need to wake up. Because this company, they're not gonna give us anything. You know that as well as I do. We have to take it. Rain, I just... I don't want to end up like our parents. Do you?
Rain : Is it as easy as you're making it sound, this plan of yours?
Tyler : You won't even have to get out of the Corbelan. That much I can promise you, okay? Come on. What do you say?

[inside the Romulus station]
Bjorn : This place gives me the creeps.
Andy : Did you hear about the miner who lost his left side? He's all right now. Do you get it? He's all right.
Bjorn : Can you turn yourself off, please?
Andy : You said you were nervous and I was trying to make sure you were...
Bjorn : Jesus! You know, I can't wait to get in them pods and never see you again, you know that?
Andy : You'll see me in Yvaga.
Bjorn : No, you're not going to Yvaga.
Tyler : Bjorn, stop!
Andy : I'm not?
Tyler : Well done.
Bjorn : Oh, she didn't tell you? Yeah, yeah, it's a non-Weyland-Yutani system, so no fake people allowed.
Andy : I prefer the term artificial person myself.
Tyler : Andy, look. Rain could end up in prison if she takes you with her. And if you guys stay in Jackson, it's just a matter of time before you get decommissioned again by the company. You understand? I need you on the ship to guard the pods. But once we get there...
Bjorn : Decommish. Lights out for good.
Tyler : [annoyed] You done?
Bjorn : Just tellin' the truth.
Andy : That's okay. If it's what's best for Rain, it's what's best for me.
Tyler : All right you're a good guy, Andy. We're all gonna miss you.
Navarro : So he didn't know?
Rain : I just did not have the heart to tell him.
Navarro : You shouldn't feel bad.
Rain : Shit.
Navarro : You're not gonna throw your whole life away for Andy's sake. He doesn't care. It doesn't matter to him. Okay? He's not... you know, real.

[Bjorn and Tyler are trying to get the facehugger off of Navarro it's tail starts to choke her]
Rain : Stop! You gotta stop! Hey! It's choking her.
Tyler : Shit. Stop! Bjorn! Bjorn, stop! For fuck's sake, stop. Stop!
Bjorn : What's it doin'? Is it fuckin' killin' her?
Andy : I do not believe that's what the creature is doing. No.
Rain : Andy?
Andy : Based on the rhythmic dilatation of those bladders, and it's synchronization to her breathing patterns, I'd surmise it's feeding her oxygen to keep her alive. For what purpose, I do not know.
Bjorn : Sorry, who the fuck are you?
Andy : I'm an ND-255 Weyland-Yutani synthetic. Originally built for mining and safety task. You guys call me Andy.
Rain : It's that module.
Andy : Yes. That new module didn't just upgrade my credentials. It's substantially updated my my AI, and it's mending my motor systems as we speak. A most overdue upgrade, I must say.
Bjorn : [picking up the taser] Shit. I'mma fucking fry this thing.
Rain : Okay, wait.
Andy : Don't!
Bjorn : Why not?
Andy : The amount of current will violently contract its tail flexors and will break her neck.
Bjorn : So what, you got a better idea? What should we fucking do then, huh?
Rain : Hey, hey, hey! Andy, do you know how to help her?
Andy : I'm afraid my knowledge database has not really changed. I do not know what this creature is or how to remove it safely. But there's someone in this room who might.
[They hook up the damaged synthetic]
Rook : I need to secure Z-01 compound. Missions priority. All other priorities rescinded. Must complete the mission.
Andy : I'm sorry... but your mission has failed.
Rook : What? No, I...
Rain : Can you tell us what we can do to help her?
Rook : You don't help her. You run. Get out, however you got in.
Bjorn : No, no, no. Wait, whoa, whoa. Nah, we're not fuckin' leavin' her, okay? You understand?
Rook : And have mercy and end her life now. If not, you all die.
Bjorn : So what the fuck is he sayin'?
Andy : What's it doing to her?
Rook : The parasitoid is implanting the Plagiarus Praepotens in her.
Andy : I beg your pardon?
Rook : A seed that will amalgamate her DNA and rapidly grow out of her.
Tyler : What's gonna grow out of her?
[Motions them to the ceiling where a dead xenomorph is hanging]
Rook : XX121 Xenomorph. One of our towing ships first made contact with this specimen two decades ago. Of the seven crew members aboard the USS Nostromo, only one survived, blowing the creature out of the airlock. We've been searching for it ever since. 170 days ago, our search came to an end. And the body of the Xenomorph was brought on board presumed dead. But of course, lack of oxygen and food is of no true consequence to this perfect organism.
Andy : Yet nothing is truly immortal. Clearly.
Rook : It wreaked havoc over this station, until what was left of our security forces shot it dead. Only to trigger its swan song.
Andy : Acid for blood?
Rook : Sulfuric and hydrofluoric. I sealed the station back up, but it was too late.
Bjorn : Hey, shut up. Nobody cares about your fucking ship anymore.
