Richard B. Riddick They say most of your brain shuts down in cryosleep. All but the primitive side...the animal side. No wonder I'm still awake. Transporting me with civilians. Sounded like 40, 40-plus. Heard an Arab voice. Some hoodoo holy man, probably on his way to New Mecca. But what route? What route? Smelled a woman. Sweat, boots, tool belt, leather. Prospector type. Free settlers. And they only take the back roads. And here's my real problem: Mr. Johns, blue-eyed devil. Planning on taking me back to slam...only this time he picked a ghost lane. A long time between stops. A long time for something to go wrong.

Richard B. Riddick [grinning, taking his hand]
Richard B. Riddick. Escaped convict. Murderer.
Just because you do not believe in God, Mr. Riddick, does not mean God does not believe in you–
Riddick You think someone could spend half their life in a slam with a horse bit in their mouth and not believe? You think he could start out in some … liquor store trash bin with an umbilical cord wrapped around his neck and not believe in God? You got it all wrong, holy man. I absolutely believe in God … and I absolutely hate the ****er.
Riddick [Caroline came back to the ship where Riddick already was]
Strong survival instinct. I admire that in a woman.
I promised them that we would go back with more light.
Riddick Did you?
Riddick (laughs)
Me afraid?
Come on, Riddick. There's gotta be some part of you that wants to rejoin the human race.
Riddick Truthfully, I wouldn't know how.
Well, then just give me more light for them, and I'll go back by myself.
Riddick Okay.
Riddick [Riddick gives her light]
There you go.
Please, just come with me.
Riddick I got a better idea. Come with me.
You're **** with me! I know you are!
Riddick You know I am? You don't know anything about me. I will leave you here. Step inside.
Riddick Sure, you can.
Riddick Here. I'll make it easy on you. [he lends her his hand] Take my hand. Come on. Come on … look. No one's gonna blame you. Save yourself, Caroline.
Riddick Come on … come on … [she's getting to the ship] That's it. That's it. Good girl.
[She suddenly hears a creature, bringing back memories of the people she leaves, and changes her mind]
Now, you! You listen to me! I am the captain of this ship. And I am not leaving anyone on this rock with those **** things, even if it means –
[Riddick brings the knife to her throat]
Get that thing off my neck.
Riddick Shut up! You'd die for them?
Riddick You didn't answer me.
Yes, I would, Riddick. I would – I would die for them.
Riddick (pauses)
.........Interesting.
