In Space, No One Can Hear You. Taglines

Rain

edit
  • Is it as easy as you're making it sound, this plan of yours?
  • Andy... are you there?
  • Listen to me -- you'll die in here. That's not in the best interests of the Company. Or mine.
  • Die, motherfucker!
  • This is the cryo-log for the mining holo Corbelan. I set course for the Yvaga system without knowing if I'll ever reach it, or what fate is to find me. But, whatever comes, I'll face it. This is Rain Carradine, last survivor of the Corbelan, signing off.

Andy

edit
  • Did you hear about the claustrophobic astronaut? He needed space.
  • I'm an ND-255 Weyland-Yutani synthetic, originally bought for mining and safety tasks. You guys call me Andy!
  • Forgive me. I've been nothing but a burden to you. Today, I can finally help. And you won't see me as a child anymore.
  • Run.
  • You will be free to continue to Yvaga together, and I'll return to Jackson. And stay in Jackson. That is, assuming we make it out of here alive.
  • Get away from her. You bitch!

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!
  • Mankind was never truly suited for space colonization, it's simply-- It's simply too fragile. They're too weak. The work of this station aimed to change that. The perfect organism, that's how we should refer to human beings!
  • This is a much-needed and well overdue upgrade for humanity. We simply cannot wait for evolution anymore.
  • I can't lie to you about your chances, but...you have my sympathies.

Others

edit
  • Tyler: Right, take a good look outside the window 'cause, the way I see it, we're never coming back.
  • Navarro: Please don't let me die.
  • Tyler: Is that all you got?! Is that all you got?!

Dialogue

edit
Rain: Y-You wanna break into a Weyland-Yutani ship and steal highly regulated equipment?
Kay: Before someone else does.
Rain: You guys are insane!
Bjorn: Yeah, 'course we are.

Rain: Andy. Are you sure you wanna do this?
Andy: I have just one directive: To do what's best for Rain. Your dad wrote it.
Rain: Yeah. That and too many dad jokes.

Bjorn: What am I putting this on for?
Tyler: So you don't freeze your balls off.
Bjorn: Hey, you gotta stop obsessing about my balls, man, it's unhealthy.
Tyler: Keep talking and I'll chop 'em off!

Navarro: Stop playing around, man, just get up!
Bjorn: I'm not playing around, there's something in the water!
Navarro: What do you mean? What is it?
Bjorn: I dunno, I don't-- I don't know what it is, there's just something in the fuckin' water...

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, no, wait, whoa. Nah, we're not fucking leaving her, okay? You understand?
Rook: Then have mercy and end her life now. If not, you all die!

Rook: XX-121 Xenomorph. One of our tag ships made first contact with this specimen two decades ago. Of the seven crewmembers aboard the U.S.S. Nostromo, only one survived, blowing the creature out of the airlock. We've been seaching for it ever since. 170 days ago, our search came to an end and the body of the Xenomorph was brought onboard, presumed dead. But, of course, lack of oxygen and food is of no true consequence to this "perfect organism"...
Andy: Then nothing is truly immortal. Clearly.

Andy: What are the odds?
Rook: 60-40, against your friend.
Bjorn: The odds on what?
Andy: That the creature's finished its job already.

Andy: I'm afraid I have just one directive. Do what's best... for...
Rook: Your upgrade came with a new directive. It overrides the old one.
Andy: I see. What's required of me, sir?
Rook: To finish our mission.

Rain: How could you do that?
Andy: What? Leave someone behind?

Andy: Right. New plan. Can you manage yourself with a gun?
Tyler: Yes, I fucking can.

Rain: You're coming with me, alright?
Andy: That's what's best for Rain.
Rain: Andy, I have a new directive for you -- do what's best for us.
