Struggling with Identity and Feelings of Insignificance
Newton "Newt" Geiszler: [When revealing to Hermann that he has been possessed by the Precursors]
Why would I do this? Well– I guess I wouldn't. Not normally, not really my style. Yeah, no, I don't know. Maybe I hate you all for treating me like an insignificant, little joke of a man. Maybe that's why he did it, Hermann. I did it. Well, let's see– There you go. There's the problem. I'm just not feeling totally myself these days.

Belonging and Forgiveness in the Corp
Nate Lambert:
I DON'T CARE! You know, when I first joined the Corp, I was just like you. Worse, I was nobody. But that woman we laid to rest today, Mako Mori. She said: Whoever you are, the minute you enter this program, you join a family. And no matter what they do, no matter how stupid they may act sometimes, you forgive them and you move on. So you start believing that, in here. And you'll start believing in a Jaeger.

Surviving in a Post-War World
Jake Pentecost: [Narrating]
My generation, we were born into war. Giant monsters attacked our world. We called them, "Kaiju". They came from the Breach, a gateway to another dimension, at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean. They were sent by an alien race on the other side, the Precursors. We fought back, building our own monsters– Jaegers. Giant robots, so big they needed two pilots to run em. My father was one of them. He sacrificed himself to help save the world. I– am not my father. It's been 10 years since we won the war, and closed the Breach. Most of the world's recovered. But a few coastal cities never did. And the world is still picking up the pieces. But some of us live better in a broken world. And squatting in half a mansion is better than paying for some crappy apartment. Now, in the relief zones, you have to get creative. You have to hustle, or somebody else might eat your breakfast. And your cookies. And you damn hot sauce. You know, out here, we place a different value on things. The Pan Pacific Defense Corps usually looks the other way, as long as you don't go poking around where you don't belong. Say, like a decommissioned Jaeger Scrapyard. Big risks means big reward. And nothing pays more than stolen Jaeger tech. Plenty of nutcases out here trying to slap together their own Jaegers. But they need the parts to do it. So if you can steal what no one else can steal– you can live like a king.
