- Rick Hunter: I've been thinking about a plan that might get us out of here. When we kissed before, Lisa, you remember how the aliens reacted? They were astounded, as if they'd never seen anything like it.
- Ben Dixon: Yeah, you're right, that's weird. They didn't know what to make of it. It was almost like it, uh, scared 'em or something.
- Rick Hunter: So when the guards come to feed us, we'll do it again.
- Ben Dixon: Yeah! Maybe it'll throw 'em long enough for us to make a break for it.
- Lisa Hayes: You must be joking! I won't do it.
- Ben Dixon: But Commander...
- Lisa Hayes: I mean it, Ben. I'm serious! I won't kiss him! He made up that absolutely ridiculous scheme just because he wants to kiss me. I know I may be naive, but I'm not stupid.
- Rick Hunter: Just a minute! You think you're so attractive I'm scheming up a way to kiss you? I wouldn't think of kissing you unless it were life or death!
- Lisa Hayes: Well!
- Ben Dixon: Hey, that's all right. If she doesn't wanna kiss you, it's okay. It's no problem. I'm more than willing to volunteer my lips for the job.
- [He makes kissing motions]
- Rick Hunter: Ugh!
- Lisa Hayes: You know, your idea? Maybe we should try it after all, Rick.
- Rick Hunter: Well, don't do me any favors.
- Lisa Hayes: The information on this video is important and it's my mission to bring it back. And I'm willing to do whatever I must to save it, even if it means having to kiss you.
- Ben Dixon: Now you're beginning to sound like an officer.
- Rick Hunter: My, my, it's the mission all of a sudden.
- Lisa Hayes: Just don't forget, it's your mission too. Well? Let's get on with it!
- Rick Hunter: Well, it might help if we wait for one of them to show up.
- Rick Hunter: Hang on, Commander, I'm coming! Are you all right? Commander, speak to me!
- Lisa Hayes: Rick, I'm afraid this is it. It's over. Try and save yourself.
- Rick Hunter: What do you mean?
- Lisa Hayes: The videotape has been destroyed and... my mission's a complete failure.
- Rick Hunter: Please, ma'am, help. You can't give up. We're both still able to make a report about what we saw.
- Lisa Hayes: All the more reason you should try to get out of here, Rick.
- Rick Hunter: Not without you. Ugh, sometimes women don't make any sense, even if they are officers. Now can we go? Right. There, that's better. Now, let's get outta here.
- Lisa Hayes: At least you have someone. There's somebody back in Macross City that's worth returning to. The only thing waiting for me is another mission.
- Rick Hunter: I can't believe that.
- Lisa Hayes: Huh?
- Rick Hunter: I can't believe that once we get back you won't find somebody to care about.
- Lisa Hayes: I'm not sure.
- Rick Hunter: Yeah, well I am. As beautiful as you are, I'd bet my life on it.
- Lisa Hayes: You know you shouldn't make idle bets with a lady.
- Rick Hunter: I'm quite serious.
- Lisa Hayes: It's all right. We'll know if you're right if we get back to the ship.
