Michelle: The 5:30 thing. Corey: Uh-huh? Michelle: Look, I know you sent the e-mail already, but I need you to let everyone know that they're free to leave at 5:30 from now on, starting today, okay? But do it in a way that's, you know, what we talked about. Corey: Yeah, of course. Michelle: We need to send the message that we have a new culture here now. Where people should, of course, feel free to leave at 5:30 and be with their families. No one is going to be overworked like in the past. No more unpleasant incidents. But, of course, it's not compulsory. And obviously, if people still have work to do, they should absolutely stay and continue to work. But it's not strictly enforced. Although we still do want to meet quotas. So if we can do that, just remembering, you know, we are running a business here, so "let your conscience guide you" kind of thing. Yeah? Good. Corey: I'll definitely let them know.

Don: How can you tell them apart? Teddy: Well, you have to know where to look. There are signs. Don: What about these people? Teddy: No, no, they're fine. I mean, they're not fine-fine, but hollowed. You know, like the rest of us. Harmless. Hopeless. And that's the way they planned it. To make us the same as the bees. A dead colony, atomised in a trillion directions with no way home again.

Michelle: Where's my hair? Teddy: Your hair has been destroyed. Michelle: You shaved off my hair? Teddy: Yes, we've shaved off your hair. Michelle: Why have you shaved off my hair? Teddy: To prevent you from contacting your ship. Michelle: My ship? Teddy: Your ship. Michelle: What ship? Teddy: Your mothership.

Casey: Look, Teddy, um, I know it was a long time ago, what I did to you, man... Teddy: It's fine. Casey: No, it wasn't fine. It was wrong, but I promise you it's not because I liked it. It was just, you know, probably some weird power thing. I was-I was young and lost, and I promise you, dude, I never, ever did that to anybody else. Teddy: Just forget it. It's done. Seriously. Casey: Really? Teddy: Mm-hmm.
