The Urgency of Their Mission
Mace
Do I have to spell it out for you? We have a payload to deliver to the heart of our nearest star. We're delivering that payload because that star is dying. And if it dies, we die. Everything dies. So that is our mission. There is nothing, literally nothing, more important than completing our mission. End of story!
Trey
He's right.
Mace
He's right? Of course I'm right! Is anyone here seriously considering otherwise?
Searle
May I put a counter-argument?
Mace
No!
Searle
Captain?
Kaneda
Go ahead.
Searle
It would, of course, be absurd to alter our trajectory to assist the crew of the Icarus I. Even if we knew that some or even all of that crew are still alive, their lives are entirely expendable when seen in the context of our mission. As are our own lives.
Mace
Exactly.
Searle
However, there is something on board the Icarus I that may be worth the detour. As you pointed out, Mace, we have a payload to deliver. A payload, singular. Now, everything about the delivery and effectiveness of that payload is entirely theoretical. Simply put, we don't know if it's gonna work. But what we do know is this: if we had two bombs, we'd have two chances.
Kaneda
You're assuming we'd be able to pilot Icarus I.
Searle
Yes.
Trey
Which is assuming that whatever stopped them completing the mission wasn't a fault or a damage to the spacecraft.
Searle
Yes.
Mace
It's a lot of assumptions.
Searle
It is. It's a risk assessment. The question is: does the risk of a detour outweigh the benefits of an extra payload?
Mace
We'll have a vote.
Searle
No. No, we won't. We are not a democracy. We're a collection of astronauts and scientists, so we're gonna make the most informed decision available to us.
Mace
Made by you, by any chance?
Kaneda
Made by the person best qualified to understand the complexities of payload delivery: our physicist.
[''Long pause'']
Capa
Shit.

The Complexity of Resentment Explained Through Plums
The Elder
A plum does not resent the hungry man, but the farmer who planted the tree.
Ladybug
He resents the farmer?
Lemon
So how do plums have fucking resentments now?
Ladybug
Oh. So it can resent?
The Elder
Listen. The White Death is the farmer.
Ladybug
So we're the plums. We're the plums?
Lemon
It don't make sense! Why are you motherfuckers using metaphors? Look, HE SHOT MY BROTHER!
The Elder
YOU SHOT MY SON! We prepare together, or we die alone.
[pause, calmly]
Ladybug
That's... all I was trying to say.
