{{Quote|Day 91. Second revolution. 42.85 degrees north, 106.32 degrees west. So... that puts me somewhere outside Casper, Wyoming. Battery is at 57%. Temperature is... Not warm. Still no sign of ''Snowpiecer''. No snow displacement. No change in tracks, which is... Either she isn't rolling anymore, or they're off the mainline. Once I cross the Bering Strait, I'll switch to secondary track, expand my search. Until then, signing off. (...) Day 172. Last of my stimulant's gone. I don't think my body is strong enough to wake from suspension without it. If this is my last entry, it's with thoughts of you, Alex. Outside. In sunlight and warmth.|Melanie's journals as she travels}}
{{Dialogue|Wilford|Sorry about leaving you to die, I suppose. But you know how things are.|Melanie|It was great. I got a little me time.|attr=Melanie and Wilford reunites.}}
{{Quote|Attention, passengers. This is Melanie Cavil. Tonight, I witnessed a ''Snowpiercer'' unlike any I'd seen before. United. Borderless. Free of class and greed. The dream of New Eden made that possible, but a dream left unchecked can be a dangerous thing, and we cannot forget what got us this far. Reason, discipline... And truth. The journey to the Horn of Africa is not safe. The track is unsound. If we knew what we would find when we got there, it might be worth the risk, but we don't. New Eden is a fiction invented by Layton. He and his crew have never been there. He lied to you. It's 8:42 pm and the temperature outside is -98 degrees. Goodnight, ''Snowpiercer'', and long may you roll.|Melanie betrays Layton and reveals the truth.}}

{{Dialogue|Alex|I heard stories about you, About how ruthless you can be.|Melanie|Can we sit?|Alex|Congratulations, mom. Who knew you’d make your move literally right after we saved you.|Melanie|We have to look at it objectively. If you can’t do that, you’ve lost your ways as an engineer.|Ruth|Melanie, don’t lose your cool.|Alex|All I need you to do is speak to Layton before this goes any further.|attr=[[Alexandra Cavill|Alex]] confronting Melanie.}}
{{Dialogue|Layton|Thank you for meeting with me.|Melanie|I appreciate the opportunity to discuss facts.|Layton|The fact is, most of us accept the risk.|Melanie|You never disclosed the risks. You’re putting all our eggs in one basket. The track is not tested.|Layton|Melanie, take the turn, or the Tail Army will do it for you.|Melanie|Really? We both know it’s a long march to the Engine.|Tills| You don’t have the forces to defend.|Melanie|I can hold you off long enough.|Ruth|And then what? Endless seesaw battles for control?|Melanie| No, we wait. We just wait until we know we’re right.|Alex|Don’t do that, Mom., Change course. The young people wanna get off.|Melanie|How can I let you, if it’s not safe? I want you with me.|Alex|Then you’ll have to take the turn.|Melanie|''[Gets on the sub-train]|Ruth|Oh, come on, For pity’s sake. Both of you.|Melanie|In or out, Ruth|Ruth|I’m not letting you go on your own. Hey this isn’t over. Figure something out.|attr=Melanie and [[Ruth Wardell|Ruth]] trying to figures the way out with [[Andre Layton|Layton]], [[Bess Till|Till]] and [[Alexandra Cavill|Alex]].}}
{{Dialogue|Ruth|Layton took Ag-Sec, without firing a shot. His people stuck with him. He holds all the cards now, Melanie.|Melanie|Can the Brakemen hold him?|Ruth|Roche won’t fight your war. He serves the people. You don’t have the pull you once did, you know.|Melanie|I need an ally.|Ruth|Not Wilford.|Melanie|I can control him.|Ruth|That’s not the point.|Melanie| No... The Point. The point is this. [points at Snowpiercer’s blueprint] It’s everything. Every last soul on Earth. It I have to sell mine to protect theirs… so be it, right?|Ruth|Well, I’m sorry. But I’ve spent too long redeeming myself to go back now.|attr=[[Ruth Wardell|Ruth]] says goodbye to  Melanie and joins [[Andre Layton|Layton]]'s side.}}
{{Dialogue|Wilford|The problem is, Melanie, you’re a legend. So you do have support. Former Firsties, some guilds, etc. But you’re both militarily outmatched and down in the polls. So, you need me. Two legends are better than one.|Melanie|I believe if we were seen as united, then the majority of passengers would choose the train, yes.|Wilford|Well, of course. But it still comes down to fear, Fear of Layton’s colony, or fear of the train that got them this far.|Melanie|There’s only one way that this works.|Wilford|[chuckles] Here it comes.|Melanie| I’m Head Engineer. And you retire from Engineering altogether. It’s my train.|Wilford|Assuming generous comforts. Meaningful consultation, and if I maintain control of certain interests of mine. Cold treatment, for example.|Melanie|Assuming all that. And all my shame at cutting a deal with you, if that helps.|Wilford|Yes. [Both shakes their hands]|attr=Melanie forming alliance with [[Joseph Wilford|Wilford]].}}
{{Dialogue|Melanie|Getting close to the bell, huh?|Layton|Yeah, it tolls for you too. Look, this isn't to surrender or to bargain. It's just to acknowledge.|Melanie|All right. Thanks for letting Alex cross over.|Layton|It was her choice. And I knew she'd be a double-edged sword.|Melanie|Yeah. I'll probably lose her by trying to save her.|Layton|Yeah, we both got enough ego to believe we can save everyone. We set ourselves up in an impossible role.|Melanie|Once you get the job, it's so hard to let it go.|Layton|You really wanna let Wilford be a part of that? You're falling right back into using fear to keep order.|Melanie|You picked up the sword. Right back to shedding blood.|Layton|Fear or blood?"<br>'''Melanie''': "And either way... he wins."<br>'''Layton''': "And we both lose.|attr=Melanie and [[Andre Layton|Layton]] realize that they are only playing into Wilford's hands by refusing to change}}
{{Dialogue|Wilford|This was you, wasn't it Melanie?|Melanie|Actually, Andre and I came up with it together. I made it six months in here. There's suspension fluid. Stimulant. Timer. You can only stay under for so long before you have to wake yourself up and figure out where you are.|Wilford|You're too weak to simply cut my throat, Layton. Cowards. All of you.|attr=[[Wilford]] is exiled on the [[Track Scaler]] by Melanie and Layton.}}
{{Dialogue|Melanie|It's a good way forward.|Layton|The ones we love, that'll be the cost.|attr=Melanie and Layton prepare to move forward}}
{{Dialogue|Layton|Citizens of ''Snowpiercer'', as the fork to New Eden approaches, I am proud to say that we have found a way through our impasse. We agree the only course is compromise, and the answer is individual choice.|Melanie|The train will be divided at Ag-Sec. Every passenger will be allowed to choose between the train with me and New Eden with Andre Layton.|Layton|Those who choose New Eden need to understand we don't know what we'll find there. The journey will be dangerous. And, yes, it will require a leap of faith. But more importantly, desire to build a new society.|Melanie|Those of you who remain, we know that life will continue to be hard on ''Snowpiercer''. Bit by bit, the train is breaking down. But we will no longer add to that hardship with oppression. The train will run on science and truth. And we will share the burden of our limited resources together.|Layton|Thank you. Whatever your choice, find hope and respect in your neighbor's fate. Talk to your families. Say goodbye to your friends. The train will separate in just under six hours.|attr=[[Andre Layton|Layton]] and Melanie lay out their new plan together.}}
{{Dialogue|Melanie|So how long do you think she will she can keep going?|Bennett|If you’re lucky, you hop from crisis to crisis for another decade, maybe two.|Melanie|I need you, Ben.|Bennett|I needed you too. I followed your science to the decision of getting off. You nearly killed that|Melanie|It’s still alive, It’s just down the line. And if we’re together I know we can get there.|Bennett|I will serve with you ‘till the end of the world. But that’s only half of it. You want me to stay, I need the rest of you.|Melanie|I’m here. [sighs] I’m yours.|
Bennett|Then New Eden can wait.|attr=Melanie staying on ''Snowpiercer'' with [[Bennett Knox|Bennett]].}}
{{Dialogue|Melanie|Um… I may or may not have put a lot of socks in there. There’s a first aid kit, and my jacket. You probably don’t want it, but it’s the one I survived in.|Alex|I love you [both sobbing] I have to go. (…) I don’t remember what the Earth is like and I, I wanna find out.|Melanie|It’s your choice. I’m just so happy that you’re here now.|Alex|Mom.|Melanie|Yeah?|Alex|The train is falling apart. The track is deteriorating.|Melanie|You know you don’t have to worry about me, huh? I’m gonna be okay. And you will too. I love you.|Alex|I love you too.|Melanie|I love you so much. I’m so proud of you. I’m so sorry I’m so sorry for all the things that I did, I’m so sorry for—|Alex|It’s okay. It’s okay.|Melanie|Okay. Okay. [Both chuckles].|attr=Melanie packing things for [[Alexandra Cavill|Alex]].}}
{{Dialogue|Melanie|I guess we're guardians of each other's loved ones now.|Layton|Well, that gives me hope. I'll take care of her.|Melanie|I know you will. Good luck, Andre.|Layton|Godspeed, Melanie.|attr=Melanie and [[Andre Layton|Layton]] say their last goodbyes.}}
{{Dialogue|Miles|Solid numbers. Energy distribution’s improved.|Melanie|It’s the loss of weight. [To Ben] Can you still see them?|Bennett|No, they’ve got weather.|attr=Snowpiercer's Engineers in the Engine.}}
