I'm not an explorer. I'm a farmer.
You gave me a machete for my birthday.

4 quotesAre you okay? [Splat squeals in response] I'm talking to my son!
How are you my dad?
My whole life, I worked so hard to be the exact opposite of my dad... And, uh, looks like I ended up just like him. I just wanted so badly to build you a legacy you could be proud of. But I might’ve got a little bit caught up in it.
Scenes with Searcher
10 scenesSearcher, we're explorers, not gardeners. Conquering those mountains is our legacy!
No, Dad. It's yours!
ENOUGH! YOU'RE MY SON!
But I'm not you! [Jaeger shocked at Searcher's words] I'm not you.
I don't mean to interrupt, but I actually think Baby Clade's right.
Callisto?
Jaeger, we don't actually know what's past the mountains. But these plants here are real. We owe it to our country to see what they can do.
Here. [gives Searcher his compass] You'll need this to find your way home.
What?
Jaeger?
Dad...
Jaeger, come back!
Dad, wait. Dad!
Jaeger, you can't survive out there alone!
Dad, stop!
Ew. This is the first image that has to be imprinted on my brain this morning?
Oh, Ethan, does this bother you?
Impossible. I mean, what sixteen year-old boy doesn’t like seeing their parents smooch? [starts kissing again much to Ethan's disgust]
Okay, okay! Ugh! [eating his breakfast] You know, I owe you know that you're emotionally scarring Legend.
Yeah. He looks real awful.
Looks like someone forgot to weed the north field.
Father, what is a weed... other than a plant growing somewhere that you find inconvenient?
I appreciate how clever you are! But you know what I'd appreciate more?
If I weeded the north field?
You see? So clever! [Searcher starts kissing Meridian]
Mr. Clade, I'm a huge fan…
Oh, thank you.
Of your dad. [Searcher sighs] Do you think you could forge me his autograph?
Hey. Uh, hello. I'm a human being from the top world. You probably don't understand a word I'm saying, do you?
Of course I understand you. What do you think I am? One of those mindless monsters?
Huh?
That's right, bub. You're in the presence of the one, the only, Jaeger… [takes off his cloak]
Dad?
Dad!?
Stay behind me!
Who's he?
Ethan, meet your grandpa.
That's Jaeger Clade?!
The one and only.
No monster, no Pando!
And no bad guys? What kind of game has no bad guys?
That’s just poor storytelling.
Okay. You know what?! You want bad guys?! Fine. You two are the bad guys! BECAUSE YOU'RE BOTH ARE ANNOYING ME!
Ha! Teenagers, right?
I win!
I know you, Ethan. And this isn't you. [Ethan angrily jumps off the Venture Ship to leave] Ethan, come back here. Ethan! Ethan!
Are you crazy? Hey, get on this skiff, now!
Leave me alone!
Hey, what is this all about?!
You, Dad. You.
Me?!
You just assume I’ll follow in your footsteps, but you never asked me what I wanted!
You're a kid! [grabs Ethan to his vehicle] You don't know what you want!
I know I DON'T WANNA BE YOU!
My whole life, I worked so hard to be the exact opposite of my dad. And, uh, looks like I ended up just like him. I just wanted so badly to build you a legacy you could be proud of. But I might've got a little bit caught up in it.
Dad, stop talking.
Ethan, I'm trying to apologize here.
Dad.
That's an eye, right?
Yeah.
A… A really, really big eye.
Yeah.
And it's looking right at us.
You… You know what this means, right?
It's judging me?
No, no. If this place has an eye, it has to be attached to a head. And if this place has a head, that means what we've been travelling through this entire time was its insides.
Like, its guts and stuff?
Okay, yes. Hear me out. The windy forests we were in, that's the lungs, and… and the acid lake? That's the stomach!
And this giant eye must be its eye.
The Reapers aren't monsters. They're an immune system.
What?
That's what Splat was trying to tell me. This place is alive. It's a living thing. We didn't find the heart of Pando, we found an actual heart.
So, all this time, we've been living on the back of this giant creature?
Yeah, and Pando is killing it.
Callisto?!
Dad?!
Get your hands off me!
Emotions are running really high right now, and I don't know what you think you saw, but we came down here to save Pando. That plan hasn't changed.
You have no idea what you're doing! You are going to destroy Avalonia!
No, let me go!
Please, you gotta listen to me!
Get off me!
You're making a big mistake! You gotta get us outta here! Unlock this door! No, you can't do this! YOU HAVE TO LISTEN TO ME!
Can you not yell at my dog?!
Well, I wouldn't yell if he were actually trained!
He is trained. He hasn't peed in the house for the last two days.
We've been on this ship for the last two days.
You still have to unlock it. There's a switch right beside the handle! Legend, do you see the switch? Legend, you see the switch?
What is that sound? Is he licking the switch?! Legend, stop licking the switch. [Meridian chuckles to searcher as Legend licks it] Legend, stop! Legend, stop licking the switch! STOP LICKING THE SWITCH!
Okay, what's the plan?
Let's get back control of this ship!
