The Dangers of Underwater Exploration
Sixpack
You know, I stood next to a guy who blew up his suit once. I'll tell you, that was not a pretty sight.
Justin Jones
Leave DeJesus alone, man!
Sixpack
One tiny little hole in a fucking toe of his suit, man. No bigger than your dick. Yeah, the way the ocean came in, the pressure just crammed his whole body up into his helmet in a matter of seconds. We just buried his helmet. That would have been you, DeJesus.
DeJesus
Hey, I know about implosions.
Sixpack
Yeah, I bet you do. I bet you were imploding in your pants.

Confronting Perceptions of Race and Identity
Justin Jones
This whole thing is unnecessary, Doc. The only skin problem I can see is white people. How come you are wearing those gloves? It ain't bend-over time, is it?

Oh, mama! What a pair.

That you liked my boobs.
Sixpack
Ha.

Discussion of a Threatening Creature
Dr. Glen Thompson
It's growing. It's just had a meal.
Elizabeth Willie Williams
It needs blood?
Dr. Glen Thompson
Apparently.
Justin Jones
That's just great! You're telling me that we've got a goddamned Dracula in here with us?
Steven Beck
Of course. That's why the one on that ship was dead. It needed blood... fresh cells to resurrect itself and grow.
Elizabeth Willie Williams
What "one on that ship"?
Justin Jones
Will someone let the rank and file in on your little secret?
Dr. Glen Thompson
Whatever it is... it's apparently some kind of genetic aberration.
Justin Jones
No shit!
G. P. Cobb
What are you saying, Doc?
Dr. Glen Thompson
It has all the characteristics of deep sea life. Scales, gills... regeneration. Even some kind of dormancy. But the fact that it remembered where that blood plasma was stored makes it appear to have some other kind of quality.
G. P. Cobb
Meaning what?
Steven Beck
It absorbs the intelligence of its victims.
Dr. Glen Thompson
Intelligence may not be the right word here.
Justin Jones
To hell with semantics, Doc. Are you saying that thing out there is part DeJesus, part Bowman, part Sixpack?
Dr. Glen Thompson
I don't know. I'd just be guessing. But I do know this... the Russians deliberately sank that ship to protect themselves. Maybe to protect us all.
