• Aaron: I respect you more now that I've seen you care for someone. begrudgingly. but, holy crap are you condescending.

• Arthur: I love his passion for discovery.
• Charles: I don't understand. I wasn't pretending to be in charge of you, and I wasn't treating you like a kid. This is--It's just--I--People compare notes right? All the time? Damn, people are hard. Birds? wildlife? lot easier.
• Emma: Dismissive. But I hope she still mistrusts systems of power. Maybe that will protect her.
• Jamila: I wonder if she's written me off?
