- Goliath: Trust between friends is a fragile gift. Built upon a mercurial foundation of instinct, sentiment, and hope. Yet without it, life becomes bitter and barren. To challenge such a fragile bond is a worrisome thing. Though trust can grow stronger when tested, the real question is: can it survive the test?
- Goliath: I apologize for leaving you so abruptly earlier. I realize you were merely doing your job.
- Elisa Maza: And I'm sorry that I doubted you even for a moment.
- [Goliath and Elisa hug each other]
- Hudson: [Clears his throat] Unless you two want to stay like that for the next 12 hours, we'd better leave.
- Goliath: I am so thankful you are alive!
- Elisa Maza: You could've picked a kinder way to prove I was the *real* Elisa.
- Goliath: I... trust you will forgive me.
- Elisa Maza: Could someone be impersonating you?
- Goliath: Who?
- Elisa Maza: Well, Thailog, for one.
- Goliath: Sevarius is in jail. And as for Thailog, no, impossible, he could not have survived.
- Elisa Maza: Fine, then you explain it!
- Goliath: I should not have to explain it! I've told where I was. You have my word. That should be enough!
- Proteus: [to Goliath] I had hoped you would prove a more *worthy* opponent, but you remain pathetically predictable.
- Elisa Maza: Taurus!
- Hudson: You know him?
- Elisa Maza: He arrested me on New Olympia. You can't know too many good cops.
- Goliath: Elsa, tell me the truth. Did you doubt me even for a moment?
- Elisa Maza: [Slight pause] Never!
- Goliath: That's Proteus! FIRE!
