Ryan
Oh, please! Tell me we're not risking our necks for this plant!
Jane
I wouldn't even call it a plant. It's a weed.
Neil

Jane
What's with her?
Ryan
What's with her and the captain?
Neil
What's with her and that stupid plant? [Jane and Ryan glare at him] What?
Aki
All right. Why do you think we've never been able to determine a relationship between the human-sized Phantoms and the giant ones roaming the wastelands?
Neil
Excuse me Doc, but… what friggin' relationship? I mean, you got your human-sized Phantoms, a-a-and your creepy, caterpillary Phantoms, and your flying Phantoms, and let's not forget my personal favorite, the big fat giant Phantoms!
Jane
Down boy!
Ryan
He's right. If you spent as much time in the field as we have, you know there is no relationship. It's like a zoo out there.
Aki
Precisely! I think the giant ones are like our whales, or elephants.
Neil
But why would an invading army bring a bunch of whales and elephants along for the ride? Unless their ship was some kind of a crazy Noah's arc.
Dr. Sid:
Hmm. W-w-we have always assumed that the meteor was intended as a form of transportation. Perhaps it wasn't.
Aki
The meteor is a chunk of their planet that got thrown into space when they destroyed their world.
Neil
But how could they survive the trip across outer space on a chunk of rock?
Aki
They didn't.
Neil
Oh. This is all beginning to make a creepy kind of sense.
