That's great. That's just fucking great, man. Now what the fuck are we supposed to do?! We're in some real pretty shit now, man!

Timmy.

Is Timmy around here too? Maybe hiding like you were? Any sisters? Mom and Dad? Newt. Look at me. Where are they?

Comforting a Child's Fear of Nightmares
Ripley
Last stop. Get in. Scoot down. That's good. Now, you lie here and have a nap. You're very tired.
[Newt lies down on the bed]
Newt
I don't want to. I have scary dreams.
Ripley
Well, I bet Casey doesn't have scary dreams. Let's take a look. Nope. Nothing bad in there. See? Maybe you could try to be just like her, hmm?
[holds up Casey]
Newt
Ripley, she doesn't have bad dreams because she's just a piece of plastic.
Ripley
Right. I'm sorry, Newt. There.
[smiles; turns on heater]
Newt
My mommy always said there were no monsters, no real ones, but there are.
Ripley
Yes, there are, aren't there?
Newt
Why do they tell little kids that?
Ripley
Most of the time it's true.
Newt
Did one of those things grow inside her?
Ripley
I don't know, Newt. That's the truth.
Newt
Isn't that how babies come? I mean, people babies? They grow inside you.
Ripley
Oh, that's very different.
[smiles]
Newt
Did you ever have a baby?
Ripley
Yes, I did. I had a little girl.
Newt
Where is she?
Ripley
She's gone.
Newt
You mean dead.
Ripley
Here. Take this. For luck. There's that.
[gives Newt her wristwatch; switches off the light]
Newt
Don't go, please.
[grabs Ripley's arm]
Ripley
Newt, I'm gonna be right in the next room. And you see that camera right up there? I can see you right through that camera, all the time to see if you're safe. I'm not gonna leave you, Newt. I mean that. That's a promise.
[points to security camera]
Newt
You promise?
Ripley
I cross my heart.
Newt
And hope to die?
Ripley
And hope to die. Now, go to sleep, and don't dream.
[Newt hugs her, Ripley kisses her on the cheek]
