  • (Sigourney Weaver) "Did IQs just drop sharply while I was away?"
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "They grab the colonists, they move them over there and they immobilize them to be hosts for more of these. Which would mean that there would have to be a lot of these parasites, right? One for each colonist. That's over a hundred at least."

  • (Lieutenant Gorman) "So?"
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "So, if they fire their weapons in there, won't they rupture the cooling system?"
  • (Paul Reiser) "Ho, ho, ho. Yeah, she's absolutely right."
  • (Lieutenant Gorman) "So? So what?"
  • (Paul Reiser) "Look, this whole station is basically a big fusion reactor, right? So you're talkin' about a thermonuclear explosion and adiós, muchachos."

  • (Corporal Hicks) "Don't be gone long, Ellen."
  • (Lieutenant Gorman) "I thought you never missed, Bishop."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "You never said anything about an android being on board. Why not?"

  • (Private Hudson) "Look let's just bug out and call it even, okay? What are we even talking about this for?"

  • (Paul Reiser) "Hold on, hold on just a second. This installation has a substantial dollar value attached to it."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "They can bill me."
  • (Paul Reiser) "Okay, I know this is an emotional moment for all of us, okay? I know that. But let's not make snap judgments, please. This is clearly -- clearly an important species we're dealing with and I don't think that you or I, or anybody, has the right to arbitrarily exterminate them."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "Wrong."
  • (Private Vasquez) "Yeah. Watch us."
  • (Private Hudson) "Hey, maybe you haven't been keeping up on current events, but we just got our asses kicked, pal."
  • (Paul Reiser) "Look. I'm not blind to what's going on, but I cannot authorize that kind of action. I'm sorry."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "Well, I believe that Corporal Hicks -- has authority here."
  • (Paul Reiser) "Corporal Hicks has --"
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "This operation is under military jurisdiction and Hicks is next in chain of command. Am I right, Corporal?"
  • (Corporal Hicks) "Yeah -- yeah, that's right."
  • (Paul Reiser) "Yeah -- Look, Ripley, this is a multi-million dollar installation, okay? He can't make that kind of decision. He's just a grunt. Uh, no offense."

  • (Corporal Hicks) "I say we take off, nuke the site from orbit."
  • (Corporal Hicks) "It's the only way to be sure."
  • (Private Hudson) "I say we grease this rat-f*** son-of-a-bitch right now."
  • (Corporal Hicks) "It just doesn't make any god**** sense."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "He figured that he could get an alien back through quarantine, if one of us was -- impregnated -- whatever you call it, and then frozen for the trip home. Nobody would know about the embryos we were carrying -- me and Newt."
  • (Corporal Hicks) "Wait a minute, now -- we'd all know."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "Yes. The only way he could do it is if he sabotaged certain freezers on the way home -- namely, yours. Then he could jettison the bodies and make up any story he liked."
  • (Private Hudson) "f***. He's dead. You're dog-meat, pal."
  • (Paul Reiser) "This is so nuts. I mean, listen; listen to what you're saying. It's paranoid delusion. How; It's really sad. It's pathetic."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "You know, Burke, I don't know which species is worse. You don't see them f***ing each other over for a god**** percentage."
  • (Corporal Hicks) "All right, we waste him. No offense."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "No. He's gotta go back."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "What's this?"
  • (Corporal Hicks) "That's the grenade launcher. I don't think you want to mess with that."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "You started this. Show me everything. I can handle myself."
  • (Corporal Hicks) "Yeah, I noticed."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "There's still time."
  • (Lance Henriksen) "In nineteen minutes, this area's gonna be a cloud of vapor the size of Nebraska."
  • (Private Hudson) "Movement. Signal's clean. Range, twenty meters."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "They've found a way in, something we've missed."
  • (Corporal Hicks) "We didn't miss anything."
  • (Private Hudson) "Seventeen meters."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "Something under the floor, not in the plans, I don't know."
  • (Private Hudson) "Fifteen meters."
  • (Carrie Henn) "Ripley."
  • (Corporal Hicks) "Definitely inside the barricades."
  • (Carrie Henn) "Let's go."
  • (Private Hudson) "Tweleve meters."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "That's right outside the door. Hicks, Vasquez get back."
  • (Private Hudson) "Man, this is a big f***in' signal."
  • (Corporal Hicks) "How are we doing, Vasquez? Talk to me."
  • (Private Vasquez) "Almost there."
  • (Private Vasquez) "They're right on us."
  • (Corporal Hicks) "Remember: short, controlled bursts."
  • (Private Hudson) "Nine meters. Seven. Six."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "That can't be; that's inside the room."
  • (Private Hudson) "It's reading right man, look."
  • (Corporal Hicks) "Then you're not reading it right."
  • (Private Hudson) "Five meters, man. Four. What the hell?"
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "They cut the power."
  • (Private Hudson) "What do you mean they cut the power? How could they cut the power, man? They're animals."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "It's very pretty Bishop but what're we looking for?"
  • (Lance Henriksen) "That's it. The emergency venting."
  • (Private Hudson) "Oh, that's beautiful, man. Oh man, that-that-that just beats it all."
  • (Corporal Hicks) "How long till it blows?"
  • (Lance Henriksen) "Four hours. With a blast radius of thirty kilometers, equal to about forty megatons."
  • (Corporal Hicks) "We got problems."
  • (Private Hudson) "I don't believe this. I don't f***ing believe this."
  • (Corporal Hicks) "Vasquez, close the shutters."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "Why can't we shut it down from here?"
  • (Lance Henriksen) "I'm sorry, the crash caused too much damage. An overload -- is inevitable at this point."
  • (Private Hudson) "Oh, man -- and I was getting short. Four more weeks and out. Now I'm going to bite it on this rock. It ain't fair, man."
  • (Private Vasquez) "Hudson, give us a break."
  • (Private Hudson) "Four more weeks. Oh, man --"
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "Well, we gotta get the other dropship from the Sulaco. I mean, there must be some way of bringing it down on remote."
  • (Private Hudson) "How? The transmitter was on the APC. It's wasted."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "Well, I don't care how but we better think of something. We better think of a way."
  • (Private Hudson) "Think of what? We're f***ed."
  • (Corporal Hicks) "Shut up."
  • (Private Hudson) "We're doomed."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "Do you have any news about my daughter ?"
  • (Paul Reiser) "Well we did come up with some informations. Why don't we sit down. I was hoping to wait until after the inquest -- Amanda Ripley-McClaren; married name, I guess; aged 66. And that was the time of her death. Which was two years ago. I'm really sorry."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "Amy --"
  • (Paul Reiser) "Um -- She was cremated and interred at Westlake Repository, Little Chute, Wisconsin. No children. I checked."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "I'd promised her -- that I'll be home for her birthday, Her 11th birthday."
  • (Corporal Hicks) "Okay. Is this everything?"
  • (Private Hudson) "Yeah."
  • (Corporal Hicks) "Okay, this is absolutely everything we've salvaged from the APC wreckage. We have four M-41A pulse rifles, fifty rounds each. That's not good. We have these M-40 grenades."
  • (Corporal Hicks) "Don't touch that. Dangerous, honey."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "Is that the only flamethrower?"
  • (Corporal Hicks) "Yeah, it's only half-full, but it's functional. The other one is damaged, I don't know about that one."
  • (Corporal Hicks) "But the good news is that we have these sentry emplacements. Kick-ass, I think they'll come in handy."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "Van Leuwin, why don't you just check out LV426?"
  • (Van Leuwin) "Because I don't have to. There have been people living there for 20 years and they've never complained about any hostile organisms."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "What do you mean? What people?"
  • (Van Leuwin) "Terraformers, planet engineers. They go in, set up these big atmosphere processors to make the air breathable. Takes decades. It's what we call a shake-n-bake colony."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "Now go to sleep and don't dream."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "Hicks, don't let him leave."
  • (Corporal Hicks) "We ain't goin' anywhere."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "I will never leave you. That's a promise."

Al Matthews as Sergeant Apone

  • (Private Hudson) "Hey top, what's the op?"
  • (Al Matthews) "It's a rescue mission, you'll love it. There's some juicy colonists' daughters we have to rescue from their virginity."
  • (Al Matthews) "All right sweethearts, you heard the man and you know the drill. Assholes and elbows. Hudson, come here. Come here."
  • (Al Matthews) "Somebody wake up Hicks."
  • (Al Matthews) "All right, sweethearts, what are you waiting for? Breakfast in bed? Another glorious day in the Corps. A day in the Marine Corps is like a day on the farm. Every meal's a banquet. Every paycheck a fortune. Every formation a parade. I love the Corps."
  • (Lieutenant Gorman) "Any questions?"
  • (Lieutenant Gorman) "What is it, Private?"
  • (Private Hudson) "How do I get out of this chickens*** outfit?"
  • (Al Matthews) "You secure that s***, Hudson."
  • (Al Matthews) "Hudson, run a bypass."
  • (Al Matthews) "Knock it off, Hudson."
  • (Private Hudson) "I'm ready, man, check it out. I am the ultimate badass. State of the badass art. You do not wanna f*** with me. Check it out. Hey Ripley, don't worry. Me and my squad of ultimate badasses will protect you. Check it out. Independently targeting particle beam phalanx. Vwap. Fry half a city with this puppy. We got tactical smart missiles, phased plasma pulse rifles, RPGs, we got sonic electronic ball breakers. We got nukes, we got knives, sharp sticks --"
  • (Al Matthews) "Knock it off, Hudson. All right, gear up."
  • (Lieutenant Gorman) "I want you to lay down a suppressing fire with the incinerators and fall back by squads to the APC, over."
  • (Al Matthews) "Say again? All after incinerators?"
  • (Lieutenant Gorman) "I said I want you to lay down a suppressing fire with the incinerators and fall back by squads to the APC --"
  • (Lieutenant Gorman) "Apone -- talk to me."
  • (Lieutenant Gorman) "Apone, talk to me --"
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "He's gone."

Carrie Henn as Newt

  • (Carrie Henn) "Don't go. I have scary dreams."
  • (Carrie Henn) "Are we gonna sleep all the way home?"
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "All the way home."
  • (Carrie Henn) "Can I dream?"
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "Yes, honey. I think we both can."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "Sleep tight."
  • (Carrie Henn) "I-ffirmative."
  • (Carrie Henn) "I knew you'd come."
  • (Private Hudson) "Well, that's great. That's just f***in' great, man. Now what the f*** are we supposed to do? We're in some real pretty s*** now, man."
  • (Corporal Hicks) "Are you finished?"
  • (Carrie Henn) "I guess we're not gonna be leaving now, right?"
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "I'm sorry, Newt."
  • (Carrie Henn) "You don't have to be sorry. It wasn't your fault."
  • (Private Hudson) "That's it, man. Game over, man. Game over. What the f*** are we gonna do now? What are we gonna do?"
  • (Paul Reiser) "Maybe we can build a fire, sing a couple of songs, huh? Why don't we try that?"
  • (Carrie Henn) "We'd better get back 'cause it'll be dark soon and they mostly come at night. Mostly."
  • (Newt's Father) "Folks, we have scored big this time"
  • (Carrie Henn) "What is it, Dad ?"
  • (Newt's Father) "I'm not sure"
  • (Carrie Henn) "We'd better get back, 'cause it'll be dark soon, and they mostly come at night -- mostly."

Lance Henriksen as Bishop

  • (Lance Henriksen) "Is there a problem?"
  • (Paul Reiser) "I'm sorry. I don't know why I didn't even -- Ripley's last trip out, the syn- the artificial person malfunctioned."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) ""Malfunctioned"?"
  • (Paul Reiser) "There were problems and a-a few deaths were involved."
  • (Lance Henriksen) "I'm shocked. Was it an older model?"
  • (Paul Reiser) "Yeah, the Hyperdine System's 120-A2."
  • (Lance Henriksen) "Well, that explains it then. The A2s always were a bit twitchy. That could never happen now with our behavioral inhibitors. It is impossible for me to harm or by omission of action, allow to be harmed, a human being."
  • (Lance Henriksen) "I'm afraid I have some bad news."
  • (Private Hudson) "Well, that's a switch."
  • (Lance Henriksen) "I may be synthetic, but I'm not stupid."
  • (Lance Henriksen) ""Surgically removed before embryo implantation. Subject: Marachek, John J., died during the procedure." They killed him taking it off."
  • (Lance Henriksen) "Not bad for a human."
  • (Lance Henriksen) "I'm sorry if I scared you. That platform was just becoming too unstable. I had to circle and hope that things didn't get too rough to take you off."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "Bishop, you did okay."
  • (Lance Henriksen) "I did?"
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "Oh, yeah."

Paul Reiser as Burke

  • (Paul Reiser) "I'm Burke. Carter Burke. I work for the company. But don't let that fool you, I'm really an okay guy. I'm glad to see you're feeling a little better. They, uh, they tell me that all the weakness and disorientation should pass soon. It's just natural side effects of such an unusually long hypersleep, or something like that."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "What do you mean? How long was I out there?"
  • (Paul Reiser) "Has no one discussed this with you yet?"
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "No. But, I mean, I don't -- recognize this place."
  • (Paul Reiser) "No, I know. Uh, okay, it's just that, uh, this might be a shock to you. It's long --"
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "How long? Please."
  • (Paul Reiser) "Fifty-seven years."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "What?"
  • (Paul Reiser) "That's the thing. You were out there for fifty-seven years. What happened was, you had drifted right through the core systems, and it's really just blind luck that a deep salvage team found you when they did. It's one in a thousand, really. I think you're damn lucky to be alive, kiddo. You could be floating out there forever."
  • (Paul Reiser) "Look, those two specimens are worth millions to the bio-weapons division. Now, if you're smart, we can both come out of it as heroes and we'll be set up for life."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "You're crazy Burke, you know that? You really think that you can get a dangerous organism like that past ICC quarantine?"
  • (Paul Reiser) "How can they impound it if they don't know about it?"
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "Oh, they will know about it, Burke, from me. Just like they'll know that you were responsible for the deaths of 158 colonists here."
  • (Paul Reiser) "Wait a second --"
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "You sent them to that ship."
  • (Paul Reiser) "You're wrong."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "I just checked the colony log. Dated 0-6-1-2-7-9, signed Burke, Carter J. You sent them out there and you didn't even warn them. Why didn't you warn them, Burke?"
  • (Paul Reiser) "Okay, look. What if that ship didn't even exist, huh? Did you ever think about that? I didn't know. So now, if I went in and made a major security issue out of it, everybody steps in. Administration steps in, and there are no exclusive rights for anybody; nobody wins. So I made a decision and it was -- wrong. It was a bad call, Ripley. It was a bad call."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "Bad call?"
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "These people are dead, Burke. Don't you have any idea what you have done here? Well, I'm gonna make sure they nail you right to the wall for this. You're not gonna sleaze your way out of this one. Right to the wall."
  • (Paul Reiser) "Ripley --. You know, I -- I expected more from you. I thought you'd be smarter than this."
  • (Sigourney Weaver) "I'm happy to disappoint you."
