Van Leuwen? Why don't you just check out LV-426?

Because I don't have to. There have been people there for over twenty years and they never complained about any hostile organisms.

[alarmed]

What do you mean? What people?

Terraformers. Planetary engineers. They go down there and set up these big atmosphere processors to make the air breathable. It takes decades. That's what we call 'shake'n'bake colony' [he tries to leave, but Ripley blocks his way with her arm]

How many are there? How many colonists?

I don't know. Sixty, maybe seventy families [looks pointedly at Ripley's arm] Do you mind?

[lets him go and speaks to herself]

Families. Jesus.
