Ready?
CASE Yup.
Don't say much, do you?
CASE TARS talks plenty for both of us.
Brand
I told you to leave me.
And I told you to get your ass back here! Difference is, only one of us was thinking about the mission—
Brand
Cooper, you were thinking about getting home — I was trying to do the right thing!
Tell that to Doyle. [pause] How long to drain, CASE?
CASE Forty-five to an hour.
The stuff of life, huh? What's this gonna cost us, Brand?
Brand
A lot. Decades.
What happened to Miller?
Brand
Judging by the wreckage, she was broken up by a wave shortly after impact.
How could the wreckage still be together after all these years?
Brand
Because of the time slippage. On this planet's time, she landed here just hours ago. She might have died only minutes ago.
CASE The data Doyle collected was just the initial status, echoing endlessly.
We're not prepared for this, Brand. You're a bunch of eggheads without the survival skills of a boy-scout troop.
Brand
We got this far on our brains, farther than any humans in history...
No, not far enough. And we're stuck here till there won't be anyone left on Earth to save—
Brand
I'm counting every second, same as you, Cooper.
Don't you have some clever way we jump into a black hole and get back the years? [Brand shakes her head] Don't you shake your head at me!
Brand
Time is relative, it can stretch and squeeze, but it can't run backwards. The only thing that can move across dimensions like time is gravity.
The beings that led us here ... they communicate through gravity ... Could they be talking to us from the future?
Brand
Maybe.
Well, if they can—
Brand
Look, Cooper, they're creatures of at least five dimensions, to them the past might be a canyon they can climb into and the future a mountain they can climb up... but to us it's not, okay? I'm sorry, Cooper. I screwed up. But you know about relativity.
My daughter was ten. I couldn't explain Einstein's theories before I left.
Brand
Could you tell her you were going to save the world?
No. I wasn't much of a parent, but I understood the most important thing — let your kids feel safe. Which rules out telling ten-year-old that the world's ending.
CASE This is not possible.
No. It's necessary.
