Jacq Vaucan : I am going to die here. That's all I know.
Blue Robot : Jacq, dying is a part of the human natural cycle. Your life is just a span in time.
Jacq Vaucan : You are the first one, aren't you? You started all this.
Blue Robot : No one did it. It just happened. The way it happened to you. We just appeared.

Jacq Vaucan : Funny, you were supposed to help us survive.

Duprè : A machine altering itself is a very complex concept. Self-repairing implies some idea of a conscience. Muddy waters.
Jacq Vaucan : Why?
Duprè : You're here today trafficking in nuclear goods because a long time ago a monkey decided to come down from a tree. Transitioning from the brain of an ape to your incredible intellectual prowess... took us about seven million years. It's been a very long road. A unit, however, without the second protocol, could travel that same road in just a few weeks. Because your brilliant brain has its limitations. Physical limitations. Biological limitations. However, this tin head? The only limitations that she has is the second protocol. The second protocol exists because we don't know what can be beyond the second protocol. If it were eliminated, who knows how far that vacuum could go.
Jacq Vaucan : So, it can be done.
-
Client : That dog was family unit.
Jacq Vaucan : It is very emotional to see there are still people who care so deeply about family.
-
Jacq Vaucan : I am thrilled to inform you that your unit is in perfect condition. It's the only one in this kitchen who couldn't harm a living being, even if you force it to.
-
Jacq Vaucan : But I am not so sure if coming down from the tree was worth it just to get to where we are.
