-
Martin : You know Diana, rather than putting Mr. Donovan away, he might prove very useful to us as a convert.
Diana : My instincts tell me he'd be too difficult as a subject. That's why I decided not to bother. Take him to the final area.
Martin : I always thought you thrived on challenges...
Diana : I do, but I like better odds.
Martin : That's curious, I would've have thought you'd find the difficult game far more interesting. But anyway, you're probably right. I don't think even you with all your abilities could ever turn this head of his...
[Turns to walk out of the room]
Diana : Martin wait. Don't take him to the final area just yet... Perhaps I would enjoy the challenge of converting him.
Martin : Well, as you wish Diana.

[after Julie shoots at Diana's shuttle]
Diana : Another pass... I want to get that woman.

Diana : Yes, but you know how impatient our Leader can be.
Steven : Even with you?
[Big mistake, as Diana's acid glance informs him]
Steven : I thought that given the intimacy of your relationship with him, he might...
Diana : [tight] Be very careful, Steven.
Steven : I just hate to see him make you so distressed.
Diana : He doesn't understand that my conversion process is still limited. It doesn't work the same on every human subject.
Steven : No, but when it does work, as with DuVivier, Jankowski and the others, it's remarkable.
Diana : Yes, it is.
Steven : They actually believe that a conspiracy exists, or even that they're part of it.
Diana : And, of course, the evidence that we planted reinforces their beliefs.
Steven : The operation is working perfectly. Scientists are being ostracized, disorganized throughout the world.
Diana : The problem is our Leader then says, "Why not convert them all?" He doesn't understand that the human will is much, much tougher than we bargained for. To convert them all would take forever. However, we will continue to refine the process.
Steven : Yes, I'm sure you will. Successfully.
