Thomas Newton: I have to get home and back before this planet is too far gone in eight fucking years. A million things could fuck it up. And you have to fully ascend.
Faraday: To what?
Thomas Newton: You're about to become legend. I thought you were paying attention. Your little video started it. They're buzzing with the mystery. Like that computer guy in black turtlenecks. You'll be worshipped. You're the next him, you have to be.
Faraday: Why do I have to be?
Thomas Newton: Because when we make it back, if we make it back, someone has to stop them from slaughtering us when we land. Someone with actual power. Someone who is everything they wanna be.
Faraday: Jesus Christ.
Thomas Newton: Exactly. Look what they did to him.
[sigh]
Thomas Newton: Do you still not understand who they are?
