Holden: So in the interests of the smooth operations of this vessel and the morale of this crew, I just wanted to let you know that Naomi and I are together...sleeping together.
Amos: When did it start?
Naomi: Just after we got out of Eros.
Amos: I knew it.
Alex: Goddammit! Son of a bitch!
Amos: Ha, ha, ha! I told you. Eros. Didn’t I say it? You lost a bet, man. Gimme that arm!

Naomi: You still wanna destroy our sample?
Holden: Yeah. Now more than ever. Miller wanted to destroy it too, y’know.
Naomi: Miller told me he trusted us to do the right thing...and we did.
Holden: Hmmm...I wonder if he knew that his trip to Eros would be one-way.
Naomi: I think part of him never left that terrible little room we found Julie in. I don’t think Miller wanted to be saved.

My name is Solomon Epstein and I changed everything.

Miller: Naomi’s heat map...y’know where it’s leadin’ us? It’s leadin’ us right back to the Blue Falcon.
Holden: Where we found Julie?
Miller: I mean, what’re the chances, right? The voices are gettin’ louder, the closer I get to there.
Holden: Ohhh...kay?
Miller: And I think she’s still in there.
Holden: Miller, Julie Mao’s dead, we both saw her.
Miller: Yeah, but what does dead mean to a Protomolecule, right? I’m not talkin’ about her body. I’m talkin’ about her...her consciousness. I’m talkin’ about part of her that may be part of this rock.
Holden: Jesus!
Miller: Everything happening here is all built around Julie. Julie’s the first one to get infected. And it was right there at the Blue Falcon. The Protomolecule infected her...what if she infected the Protomolecule back?

Col Johnson’s Second in Command: One-hundred and fifty live thermonuclear missiles under your control. I think that makes you the most powerful man in the system right now.
Col. Johnson: Oh really? Then go get me a cup of coffee.

Miller: Hey, we never officially met. I’m Miller. Used to be a cop on Ceres. I was supposed to...find you. Bring you home.
Julie: A kidnap job?
Miller: Yeah...kinda cocked that up, y’know.
Julie: They left me here all alone and never came for me.
Miller: Listen Jules, right now, this station...this rock, is headed for Earth. Real fast.
Julie: I dreamed that I was...racing.
Miller: Yeah...
Julie: That I was going home.
Miller: Yeah, we’re gonna need to stop that, Jules.

Miller: Your crew is gonna die for nothin’. Just back off now. Find a way to divert those missiles.
Holden: And then what? What?!
Miller: I’ll try to reach Julie. If there’s any part of her still left...and get her to stop this rock. And if that doesn’t work, I still got my little pal here.
Holden: You’re gonna negotiate with a girl who thinks she’s a space station?
Miller: Well, when you put it like that, it does seem kinda crazy.

Julie: What happens to us now?
Miller: I don’t know. We die, maybe. But if we don’t die, that’d be interesting. Whatever happens, happens to both of us. It’s gonna be OK.
Julie: You belong with me.

Miller: I came an awful long way to find you. Because I believe in you. You’ve made a guy like me...believe in something. I know you’re a fighter. I know. You can steer this ship.
Julie: I’m done fighting. I just wanna go home.
Miller: You can’t go home, Julie. I’m sorry...I’m sorry. You can go anywhere else in the whole universe, but you can’t go home, honey. OK? But hey, I need you to know...whatever happens, wherever you go...you’re not gonna do it alone.

Chrisjen: That’s it! Fred wants me to connect Protogen to the stealth ships.
Spy: And to Jules Pierre Mao? Do you really think he’s in bed with Errinwright?
Chrisjen: How many people have the resources to wage a private war, with a private fleet of ships? Phoebe Station. Protogen ran a research base on Phoebe...

Holden: Listen to me, doctor! You have no idea what you’re dealing with here.
Doctor: It’s not a disease, this is some kind of weapon. You Martians have been using these Belters as guinea pigs.
Holden: If any one of you are infected, you could wipe out millions! Turn your ship around! I promise you’ll not be harmed.
Marasmus Doctor: We won’t let you silence us to protect your experiment.
Holden: If you broadcast, people will come here to investigate and we won’t be able to contain it. This is not our experiment.

Errinwright: You need me. You need my government’s resources and my protection.
Mao: I need a patriot who understands the historic importance of what’s happening that can adjust his worldview accordingly. But you’re just trying to save your job, so I’ll let you get back to it.
