Ripley:
Ash, can you hear me? Ash?
Ash:
Yes, I can hear you.
Ripley:
What was your special order?
Ash:
You read it. I thought it was clear.
Ripley:
What was it?
Ash:
Bring back life form. Priority One. All other priorities rescinded.
Parker:
The damn company. What about our lives, you son of a b*tch?!
Ash:
I repeat, all other priorities are rescinded.
Ripley:
How do we kill it, Ash? There's got to be a way of killing it. How – how do we do it?
Ash:
You can't.
Parker:
That's bullshit.
Ash:
You still don't understand what you're dealing with, do you? The perfect organism. Its structural perfection is matched only by its hostility.
Lambert:
You admire it.
Ash:
I admire its purity. A survivor...unclouded by conscience, remorse, or delusions of morality.
Parker:
Well, I don't. I've heard enough of this, and I'm asking you to pull the plug.
[Ripley moves to turn Ash off, but he interrupts]
Ash:
Last words.
Ripley:
What?
Ash:
I can't lie to you about your chances, but...you have my sympathies. [he smiles]
Ripley:
[turns Ash off] We're gonna blow up the ship. We'll take our chances, and blow up the ship.
