Riddick: Are you saying you know her?
James: Yes. We met at the martial arts practice.
Riddick: Go on.
James: Well... um... I... I really like her and I asked her out.
Riddick: I guess she said yes or you wouldn't be here. - Would you excuse me for a minute? There's something I need to do.
James: Sure. I'll just get another beer.

Dakota: Hello James. It's been a long time.
James: Not long enough. How did you find me? I've never been here before.
Dakota: I followed you. Don't tell me you're still mad at me. You look quite all right.
James: I am now. Where's that lunatic husband of yours? Still inside?
Dakota: Unfortunately. Or maybe fortunately, depends on how you look at it. One way to look at it is that there's nothing to stop us...
James: Stop it. Right there.
Dakota: All right, but you could at least buy me a drink.

James: I don't want anything to do with you.
Dakota: Why not? You used to enjoy my company quite a lot. I certainly enjoyed our little meetings, and we all have certain needs.
James: What I need right now is for you to leave me alone.

Kitty: Thanks for coming, Max.
Orlock: You said it was important. Where's Rosie? I wouldn't want to scare her.
Kitty: She's upstairs with Mary and Bea. We'll talk first and then I think it's time for you two to meet. I want you to be able to visit us. She already met Chester and after some initial problems, everything was all right.
Orlock: I'm certainly curious to meet her. If you think it's all right...
Kitty: It is, but first things first.

Kitty: I know you said there aren't any of your kind around here, but what if I said you're wrong?
Orlock: Are you saying I'm wrong? Who is it?
Kitty: Remember Faith, my friend who arranged Bea to come live with us? Well, she's got a very curious problem...

Orlock: A child? Are you seriously saying it's a child?
Kitty: That's what Faith said and there is no reason for her to lie. I mean, you will only need to take a look and you'll know whether he's your kind or not. What's so special about a child?
Orlock: We don't often have children. There's a handful of us left and we can only have children with our own kind.
Kitty: I didn't know that. But if that's the case, where did he come from?
Orlock: I have no idea, but I certainly want to meet him.

Riddick: Am I interrupting something?
James: This is Dakota. Dakota, this is Riddick, the head of security here.
Dakota: I feel much safer already. It is always nice to meet someone like you, Mr. Riddick.
Riddick: It's just Riddick. Would you mind leaving us alone for a moment?
Dakota: Sure. Maybe we can have a little chat of our own once you're finished with him.
Riddick: We'll see.

Riddick: You wanted to talk about Mary, but first I want to know who that is.
James: The last woman on earth I wanted to see.
Riddick: I could see that much. I think you better start explaining.
James: She's my ex-girlfriend. Actually, it was just an affair. She's married and her husband found out.
Riddick: How bad?
James: Hospital for me and jail for him.

Riddick: And her?
James: Enjoyed every minute of it. If I had only known... I know now that it was a stupid thing to do, but I thought I was the luckiest man in the world.
Riddick: I know the type and I can see the attraction. And now?
James: Now she acts like nothing happened. I don't even want to see her. I guess you're going to tell me I can't take Mary out. I know it looks bad...

Riddick: You're not the first guy to make that sort of a mistake. Does Henry know?
James: Yes. He's the one I called from the hospital.
Riddick: All right, here's what we're going to do. First I will have a little talk with your ex. Later I will talk with Mary, and then we'll see.
James: Thanks.
Riddick: Don't thank me yet. As I said, we'll see. You better leave now.

Kitty: Rosie, this is Max. He's very nice and there's no need to be afraid of him.
Orlock: Hello Rosie. I've been waiting to see you.

Kitty: She doesn't talk, but she seems to like you.
Orlock: I'm glad about that. I wouldn't have wanted to scare her.
Bea: What do you mean? You're not scary.
Orlock: Your view may be biased.
Bea: What's bi-assed?
Kitty: It's biased with one "s" and it means that you like Max, so you can't see how others would be scared of him.

Kitty: So, if you can shift your attention away from your newest fan, we should talk about the arrangements.
Orlock: Arrangements?
Kitty: Faith thought it might be best for all of you to meet on a neutral ground, so to speak. That means you're meeting here, if that's all right with you.
Orlock: Sure, no problem. When?
Kitty: How about the day after tomorrow, in the afternoon?
Orlock: That's fine. Imagine, a child. I never would have believed it.

Dakota: Is James leaving already? What a shame.
Riddick: I think he wants to get away from you.
Dakota: Why would he want to do something like that?
Riddick: Maybe he wants to keep his bones intact.
Dakota: Did he tell you about that? Who are you?
Riddick: Just a friend.

Dakota: He certainly didn't have friends like you before. There was of course that ugly feline...
Riddick: Who also happens to be my friend.
Dakota: Sorry, but you must admit that he is ugly. Anyway, if I had known he had friends like you, maybe I would have asked him to introduce me to his friends.
Riddick: I don't think you're that type.
Dakota: What type?
Riddick: The type one would want to introduce to one's friends.

Abby: What did you do? I thought she would slap you.
Riddick: Truth hurts, I guess.
Abby: You're not usually rude to women.
Riddick: I'm not rude to ladies. That one was no lady.
Abby: But she sure was impressive. She was taller than you.
Riddick: So?

Next day:
Riddick: Come in, James. Mary is upstairs. I guess she told you that Kitty wants to meet you too. - Before we go there, there's something I want to ask you. How much did Henry tell you about me?
James: Enough. And I heard about you and Splinter. He's hard to impress.
Riddick: I know. He said you're all right. - Don't look so surprised. You must have known I would ask some questions.

Mary: Hi James. This is Bea.
Bea: I thought you'd be bigger, like Henry. Mary said you train with Splinter.
James: Well, in martial arts bigger isn't always better.
Kitty: I'm Kitty and this is Rosie. Rosie doesn't talk, but as you already noticed, Bea talks enough for two.
James: I don't mind.

Kitty: Mary told me you're going to be a doctor.
James: That's right. I'm considering a career as an ME.
Bea: What's an ME?
James: Medical examiner. That's a doctor who finds out the cause of death.
Bea: Eww! You're going to cut up dead people?
Kitty: Bea, don't be rude.
James: It is a bit crude way of putting it, but yes, that's exactly what I'll be doing. I didn't think you would know that.

A little later:
Bea: What's the movie you're going to see?
Mary: Something you're too young to see. It's called "Let the right one in."
Bea: What does that mean? It doesn't make any sense.
James: Movie names often don't. It's just a movie about a boy and a girl, who become friends.
Bea: What's so special about that? There are dozens of movies like that.
Mary: Well, the girl in this one is a bit special. Like Max.
