- Liam Kosta: What was first contact protocol again?
- Scott Ryder: No deadly force unless fired upon.
- Liam Kosta: Yeah, said no one in the field EVER.
- Scott Ryder: You and me side by side? I like the sound of that.
- Cora Harper: Don't be charming when I'm mad at you.
- Liam Kosta: Listen, I'm just going to come out and say it. I was blaming you for how shit I feel. I figured any doubts I have must be worse for kids. Made me dislike the ones who brought them.
- Vetra Nyx: So I shouldn't feel bad about your judgement because you figured out why you judged me? You understand why you're an asshole? Guess what? Still an asshole.
- Archon: I've been in this forsaken cluster for decades, surrounded by amoeba. Then you arrive - a human able to do the unthinkable. You even evaded me. Such an unlikely rival. It was almost invigorating to have one. And yet it's a fitting end.
- Scott Ryder: Not before I end you. I've seen your experiments. It's what we call "inhuman."
- Archon: And what I call progress.
- Alec Ryder: Every great moment in our history began with a dream. Each bold leap forward was achieved by those willing to do anything to attain it. We are, all of us, leaving behind families, homes, the very birthplace of our species. Some for discovery, to see the unknown. Others, for a new start. But today, whatever our reasons, we take the first steps toward a new future for humanity. Today, we begin to make our dream reality.
- Sara Ryder: [on seeing a naked Jaal and a half naked Liam working out in the lower decks] Is this show for my benefit? Because I'm benefiting.
- Cora Harper: So quiet. Like it's just the two of us. Maybe one day it will be - you and me. A rover, a tent; adventuring across the stars.
- Scott Ryder: Living on our wits? Keeping each other warm at night? Sign me up.
- Cora Harper: This... us... it might not be easy. Andromeda challenges everything we know. But you're worth the fight.
- Jaal Ama Darav: You are more lovely than anyone I have ever known, in body and spirit. Wherever you go, take me with you.
- Sara Ryder: I like having you around, specifically you.
- Jaal Ama Darav: Because of my skill and knowledge?
- Sara Ryder: Not really.
- Jaal Ama Darav: Because you enjoy spending time with me as much as I do with you?
- Sara Ryder: You do?
- Jaal Ama Darav: Yes. You are fascinating. And special. And strange.
- Scott Ryder: You don't watch many horror vids, do you? We have no idea what's down here.
- Pelessaria 'Peebee' B'Sayle: And we never will if we miss something because we're huddled in a group.
- Cora Harper: Pretty sure the AI rulebook doesn't insist the Pathfinder always gets to drive.
- Scott Ryder: I swear I will turn this car around...
- Scott Ryder: Time to rest up. That's an order, Specialist Ryder.
- Sara Ryder: Yes sir, Pathfinder, sir. Oh, who are we kidding. I saw you eat your own boogers when you were six.
- Cora Harper: A huntress without the trust of her team stands alone. She is a tree in the desert, bearing only defiance.
- Nakmor Drack: What's with the smudge over your eyes? Trying to be some kind of superhero?
- Pelessaria 'Peebee' B'Sayle: Why all the bones? Trying to be some kind of supervillain?
- Nakmor Drack: Yes.
- Pelessaria 'Peebee' B'Sayle: [impressed] Cooool.
