{{Dialogue|Alex|All it does is remind me that Melanie flipped the tables on us.|Wilford|I know!|Wilford|Sound science that the earth may be warming. It's fabulous.|Wilford|And she's departing on a veritable suicide mission, leaving Mr. Layton, our fearsome revolutionary. I'm tingling.|Wilford|This will be far more fun then simply slitting his throat.|attr=Wilford to Alex on Melanie's science.}}

{{Dialogue|Alex|Leave once, it's a decision. Then you leave me twice, and then that becomes a choice.|Melanie|Yes, I'm choosing to go. But only because there's not much chance of a world for you if I don't.|Alex|Okay, so… what do you wanna know?|Melanie|Everything. What do you love to do? Who pierced your ears? Where you sleep? Will you ever laugh?|attr=Melanie told [[Alexandra Cavill|Alex]] she loves her but she had to go.}}

{{Dialogue|Melanie|It's a nice bunk.|Alex|We get to decorate then, but they're all the same. Except for Wilford's.|Melanie|Well, you made it nice. (Looks at the cotton ropes on the wall.)|Alex|I use this to visualize our route.|Melanie|Yeah. Me, too. Same trick.|Alex|Well, we did have the same teacher. (Picks up a paper.) I used to draw you… to picture what you looked like. (Gives it to Melanie.)|Melanie|I pictured your face too, all the time.|Alex|Wilford says you're the best driver he's ever seen.|attr=[[Alexandra Cavill|Alex]] shows Melanie her bunk.}}

{{Dialogue|Bennett|You know, when he chooses you, you enter his court. It's amazing at first. He's amazing. And then the knives come out. He divides people for sport. Melanie and I refused to let him.|Layton|Is that why ''Big Alice'' is a Ben Free-Zone?|Bennett|Probably. His brand of jealousy isn't about anything normal like love betrayal or sex. It's just about control.|Layton|We might have to find a way to use that.|Bennett|Yeah. We might. But we still have to go halfway across the world with him. So whatever your plans are...|Layton|No secrets. We'll get back to Melanie together.|attr=[[Bennett Knox|Bennett]] and [[Andre Layton|Layton]] form an alliance.}}

{{Dialogue|Tristan|Emergency, emergency. First and Second Class to the Nightcar. Third to the Ag-Sec or Mess Hall. Emergency, muster stations... Please... The Second Class is entering the curve. That is to say, prepare to brace. (Goes through curve.) Thank you.|Ruth|Oh, God. For pity's sake, Tristan.|attr=[[Tristan]] on the intercom going through Neckbreaker.}}

{{Dialogue|Melanie|Look, I... I think I know what your priorities are.|Layton|Yeah, you want me to run it by you to see if I got it? Protect the science.|Melanie|Number one.|Layton|Yeah, to do that, I'll have to hold off the megalomaniac who created this world and wants to get power back again and has already got some supporters on his side.|Melanie|Yeah, that's about the size of it.|Layton|Which leads me to believe that maybe he didn't want anybody to get off this train and recolonize the Earth in the first place.|Melanie|Just so we're clear, the success of this mission will be measured in data, not my survival. Good luck, Andre.|Layton|Good luck, Melanie.|attr=[[Melanie Cavill|Melanie]] and [[Andre Layton|Layton]] lay out their priorities and say goodbye}}

{{Dialogue|Melanie|You can trust Layton. He's a good man. He's just, and so are you.|Ruth|Well, good men and women don't seem to stay good long doing this, do they?|Melanie|Please promise me you'll look after Alex. I just... I wanna know someone's... there for her. It would mean a lot to me if it was you.|Ruth|Of course I will. You have my word.|Melanie|Thank you.|attr=Melanie and Ruth say an emotional goodbye}}

{{Quote|Engineer. We'll all be waiting for you right here when you get back.|[[Ruth Wardell|Ruth]] makes [[Melanie Cavill|Melanie]] a promise.}}}}
