Med Tech : How are we today ?
Ripley : Terrible
Med Tech : Well, better than yesterday at least
Ripley : Where am I ?
Med Tech : You're Safe. You're at Gateway Station, been here a couple of days. You were pretty groggy at first, but now you're OK. Looks like you've got a visitor.
Ripley : Jonesy. Come here! Hey, come here. How are you, you stupid cat? How are you ? Were have you been ?
Burke : I guess you two have met, huh . I'm Burke. Carter Burke. I work for the company. But don't let that fool you. I'm really an OK guy. I'm glad to see that you're feeling a little bit better. They told me that all the weakness and desorientation should pass soon. It's just natural side effects of such an unusally long hypersleep, or something like that...
Ripley : What'd you mean, How long was I out there ?
Burke : Has no one discussed this with you yet ?
Ripley : No. But, I mean, I don't recognise this place.
Burke : No, I know. Uh... OK. It's just that, uh, this might be a shock to you. It's longer...
Ripley : How Long ? Please.
Burke : 57 years.
Ripley : What?
Burke : That's the thing. You're out there for 57 years. What happened is. You had drifted right through the core system, and It's really just blind luck that a deep-salvage team found you when they did. It was one in a thousand, really. I think you're damn lucky to be alive, kiddo. You could be floating out there forever.
