Ethics of Theft and Family Loyalty
Philippe Weis You'd steal from your own father.
Sylvia Weis Is it stealing if it's already stolen?
The Cost of Immortality
Philippe Weis Is that so? You might upset the balance for a generation. Two. But don't fool yourself. In the end, nothing will change. Because everyone wants to live forever. They all think they have a chance at immortality even though all the evidence is against it. They all think they will be the exception. But the truth is: For a few to be immortal, many must die.
Will Salas NO ONE should be immortal, if even one person has to die.

The Necessity of Rescue in Unwanted Situations
Philippe Weis Timekeeper. After this regrettable incident it's really not necessary for you to come in person.
Raymond Leon I'm afraid it really is... necessary.
Philippe Weis When can we hope for a rescue?
Raymond Leon I believe that's the point; she doesn't appear to want to be rescued.
Philippe Weis Mr Leon... Raymond. May I call you Raymond? I blame myself. I invited the man into my home. He had so much time, how was I supposed to know? Of course, Sylvia brought this on herself by her lack of vigilance. That's why I always tried to keep her close. But she is clearly under Will Salas's control. If it's a matter of resources, I'm... happy to make a contribution. It's a scandal what we pay our Timekeepers.
[Leon doesn't respond; Weis examines his arm with clock on it]
Raymond Leon I have issued a warrant for your daughter's arrest. If she contacts you and you assist her in any way, I will issue a warrant for your arrest.
Philippe Weis There's nothing I cannot buy. Now, how many of my years do you want?
Raymond Leon There aren't enough years, even in your lifetime Mr. Weis. Goodnight.
The Consequences of Time Distribution
Philippe Weis Even if you gave a year to a million people, you're just prolonging their agony.
Sylvia Weis We're prolonging their lives.
Philippe Weis Flooding the wrong zone with a million years, it could cripple the system.
Will Salas Let's hope so.
Sylvia Weis We're not meant to live like this. We're not meant to live forever. Although I do wonder, Father, if you've ever lived a day in your life.
