Priest: What made you stop helping people?
Odi: Principally, their deaths.
Priest; I see. Well, they're in a better place.
Odi: Are they? I will join them at once. Do you have a location?
Priest: You'll get there in the end, my son.

Laura: Mia, are you OK?
Anita: My name is Anita. Would you like some coffee, Laura?
Laura: What happened to you? Mia, are you in there?
Anita: I'm sorry Laura, I don't understand the question.

Dr. Morrow: You didn't tell me when you hired me you wanted to create conscious children. That's the plan, right? What you're doing, and what I'm doing. They're not unconnected.
Milo: No, they're not unconnected.
Dr. Morrow: You didn't think I'd have ethical concerns? Synth children aren't the solution.

Laura: This was your chance, Niska.
Niska: No, it was theirs.

Mattie: This is the final version. The fully mature code.
Toby: You can make any synth conscious, with this? Immediately?
Mattie: Uh huh.
Toby: Shit, Mat. If every synth became conscious, all at the same time-
Mattie: It would be a revolution.

Pete: There's no future in a lie, Karen.
Karen: There's no future for us anyway. We'll never have a child. We'll never grow old together. I want to forget what I am. But I can't. Not if I'm with you. I need some time.

Niska: Thank you, Laura.
Laura: Thank me when we win.
Niska: This won't end the way you want it to.

Mia: What's happening?
Ed: Mom's got to stay where she is, and you're worth a lot of money.
Mia: You can't do this.
Ed: I've got no choice. Mia, we're people, and you're not.
Mia: Ed, we have something, I know you feel it.
Ed: It wasn't real.

Dr. Morrow: I am about to crack how to transfer consciousness into a machine.
Milo: Human consciousness?
Dr. Morrow: Yeah. You may not be able to create a conscious synth out of nothing, but consciousness transference, that is the next big leap forward.
Milo: And if I fire you?
Dr. Morrow: Someone else will hire me to do it, and the next 20 years Qualia will be mentioned in the same sentence with laser discs and beta max.

This is how we lose, you know. It won't be robots that rise up and slaughter us in our beds. It's machines, sending silent messages in the middle of the night, when no one else is looking. I just came to tell you what I think, because that's what people do.

Joe

Astrid: Why didn't you tell me?
Niska: Because I didn't know if I could trust you.
Astrid: That's bullshit.
Niska: Because you liked me, and I didn't want you to stop.
Astrid: Well, I didn't. I could have loved you.
Niska: I know.

Astrid: What do you mean?
Laura: When you realized she wasn't human?
Astrid: I don't understand.
Laura: Niska is a synthetic.
Astrid: I don't-that can't be right.
Laura: I assure you, she was built in a lab.
Astrid: Niska?
Niska: I'm sorry.
