Quotes

Marie Curie : Come closer.
Lucy Preston : Oh, I've heard radiation is dangerous.
Marie Curie : The procedure is completely safe.
Irene Curie : Don't believe what you've heard. We're in more danger from our drivers.
Carol Preston : How so?
Irene Curie : One night, my mom was on her way home from the field hospital.
Marie Curie : The truck overturned.
Irene Curie : My mom was crushed underneath the apparatus. Bleeding everywhere, and then, the driver, he rushed around the car, and he said...
Marie Curie : "Madam, madam, are you dead?"
Irene Curie : My sister and I wouldn't have even known had we not found the bloody bandages. I think she was afraid we'd try to stop her from her work, as if that were possible.

Lucy Preston : [outside the Mothership, as Emma draws her gun] Emma, no.
Irene Curie : It's just my mother and me.
Marie Curie : We wanted to see what was disrupting the machine. I think we found it.
Emma Whitmore : I really wish you hadn't seen this.
Lucy Preston : Mom, this is crazy. Tell her to put the gun down.
Carol Preston : Emma.
Emma Whitmore : What? You think I want to do this? I didn't make the rules, Carol, but you know them as well as I do.

Lucy Preston : You want to prove to me that you're not a monster? You taught me everything that I know about these women. How could you hurt them?
Marie Curie : Do what you must. Spare my daughter. Her sister has no other family left.
Irene Curie : Maman, no, if you die, your work dies with you.
Marie Curie : My daughters are the only work that matters.
Emma Whitmore : Let's just get this over with.
Carol Preston : Put the gun down. That's an order.
[Emma lowers her gun; after a moment, she raises it again, and Lucy steps protectively in front of the Curies]
Lucy Preston : No! No.
Emma Whitmore : Don't tempt me, princess. I'm more than happy to take you out, too.
