The Supreme

edit
  • You are from a nation of speaking people. How glorious that must be! Our society is less fortunate.
  • I fear our future is done, Captain. We have returned to the cave where men first lived on earth. We have returned to our birthplace to die.

Captain

edit
  • I don't trust that man. Especially his thoughts.
  • Major, I must tell you the truth, understandably not an easy thing for me to do. Everything they say about us is true. We are sick and dying. You can imagine with the envy I look upon you, Kruse, Dr. Bourman. I myself am in the first stages of mutation.

Other

edit
  • Secretary Lloyd Patterson: Gentlemen, we've got a lot to think about.

Dialogue

edit
Maj. William Allison: I don't understand.
The Supreme: There will be time for understanding if you are co-operative.

Maj. William Allison: Sterile?
Dr. Bourman: Yes, they are a dying race. There hasn't been a new birth on this citadel in the last twenty years.
Capt. Markova: That's where you fit into the plan, Allison. Make no mistake about it.

Capt. Markova: Well, Trirene's found herself a big, good-looking playmate and a fiery one too!
Gen. Karl Kruse: Mr. Allison, this is ex-captain Markova.
Maj. William Allison: I don't know that I like what you have on your mind, Captain.
Capt. Markova: Maybe when you find out what she has on hers, you'll like that better.
