- Tee Gar Soom: [Angry at Paul's selfishness and cowardice when under attack] You know, It figures Paul would go back to the ship! Y'know, I've seen some guys pretty wrapped up in themselves, but...
- Chris Gentry: Paul's from a pioneer colony. Survival is the name of the only game he played there. It's the only game he's ever known.
- Tee Gar Soom: One for one and the rest take care of themselves, huh?
- Chris Gentry: People learn and change.
- Paul Jerome: Well, Loki, I know what it's like to be alone, too. And maybe, just maybe, I can figure out some way to help.

- Paul Jerome: [laughs] It means much more than that. It happens to be real.
