[Seth is in the final stages of the transformation]
Seth: You have to leave now, and never come back here. Have you ever heard of insect politics? [Veronica shakes her head] Neither have I. Insects don't have politics. They're very brutal. No compassion, no compromise. We can't trust the insect. I'd like to become the first insect politician. Y'see, I'd like to, but...I'm afraid... [groans]
Veronica: I don't know what you're trying to say!
Seth: I'm saying... I'm saying I-I'm an insect who dreamt he was a man, and loved it. But now the dream is over...and the insect is awake.
Veronica: No, no, Seth...
Seth: I'm saying...I'll hurt you if you stay.

[After sending a baboon through the telepods, only to have it emerge as a bloody, malformed mess]
Veronica: [recording him with a camera] We've gotta do this, Seth. Talk to the tape. Get in the habit. The world will want to know what you're thinking--
Seth: [angrily] "****" is what I'm thinking!
Veronica: Good... The world will want to know that... What else? Why didn't it work?
Seth: [more calmly] I think it turned the baboon inside-out.
Veronica: Why?
Seth: It can't cope with the flesh. It only seems to work on inanimate objects; nothing that's living. Must be my fault.
Veronica: Why?
Seth: Computers are dumb. They only know what you tell them. I must not know enough about the flesh myself. I'm gonna have to learn. [is silent for a moment] I don't wanna talk now.
[Ronnie turns off the camera and sadly watches him leave]
