- Son, you’ve got this. You think Helena and I would have invited just anyone into our home? You’re our family too. Helena loved you, and you I do, too. Come back safe. Because you know there’s no way I can handle Kady all on my own.
- I’ll be on the radio the whole time, baby girl I’ll be with Yulin in Engineering. I have to say, when we used to have talks about your future, commanding a battle fleet isn’t quite what I imagined, but I know you can do this. I’ll be with you every step.
- I’ll be in touch every minute, Ella. There’s no way I’m letting anything happen to you, and I demand a rematch when this is over. If you think I’m letting a fifteen year-old beat me at cards, you’ve got another thing coming.
- Nik, you are what your actions make you. Not what other people say you are. You’ve decided who you are, in the face of a world that wanted to tell you otherwise. I get the impression maybe nobody’s ever told you they’re proud of you. I am, Nik. I’m proud to know you.
- You have this, Hanna. Your father would be so proud of you right now. He knew exactly how incredible you were. We used to talk about it, late at night, these women we were raising. Just how far and how fast our daughters would exceed us. He loved that.
