[Alice is back in her world with her mother; the door buzzes]
Caroline : Oh, I almost forgot, the construction worker who found you, he wanted to stop by and see how you were. Very sweet.
[Alice stays in her room, looking sadly at her copy of Alice in Wonderland]
Caroline : Alice? Come meet David.
Alice : [exits her bedroom and goes into the living room to see...] Hatter!
[she runs into his arms]
Hatter : [hugging her tightly] Finally.
Alice : You have no idea how happy I am to see you.
[they kiss. Alice's mother looks dumbfounded]

[they kiss again]

White Knight : Alice of Legend, your presence in this world is no accident. You are here for a reason.
Alice : Please, Charlie, it's just plain Alice.
White Knight : Just Plain Alice, I will stand at your side, shoulder to shoulder, knee to...
Hatter : Charlie! Now's not such a good time.
Alice : You guys shouldn't have come. You could get yourselves killed.
Hatter : Did you give the ring up, Alice?
Alice : Look, I have things under control.
Hatter : You tried to cut a deal with the Queen, didn't you?
Alice : I was getting close.
Hatter : Getting close? Maybe I'm wrong, but negotiations didn't appear to be going so well.
Alice : Well, I need more time.
Hatter : For what? You really think the Queen's just gonna send you and your boyfriend home?
Alice : No.
Hatter : No, of course not.
Alice : Because he's her son.
Hatter : The prince? Jack Heart? Jack Heart is your boyfriend?

Alice : [they are attempting to escape the casino on flying mechanical flamingos] You don't understand, I'm not getting on that!
Hatter : It's perfectly safe!... Safeish!
Alice : I have a thing about flying!
Hatter : [the queen's agents appear and start shooting at them] Yeah, I have a *thing* about bullets! Look, I'll do the flying, all you have to do is hold on. Look at me.
[she does]
Hatter : I wouldn't let you do it if I didn't think you'd be okay.
[she nods and gets on behind him]

White Knight : How old were you when your father disappeared?
Alice : Ten.
White Knight : That must have been quite a shock.
Alice : You know how kids are. Blame themselves for stuff like that.
[White Knight looks troubled]
Alice : You okay?
White Knight : I was ten once. I was ten when the armies came. One of three squires to the real White Knight. My job was to carry the great lance. And when it mattered, when I was needed most... I lost my nerve and I ran. I hid for three days, and when I came out... everyone was dead. Even the magnificent Red King up there on his throne. At first I wished I died with them, but after a while a deeper feeling took over. I wanted a second chance, I wanted to avenge them.
[tearing up]
White Knight : So I stole the White Knight's armor, his name... his courage. And I waited for the right time. When you showed up, I thought the right time had finally arrived.

[Hatter bursts into the gaming room, and he and Alice take down all the agents. She sees the injuries inflicted by Mad March]
Alice : Oh my God.
Hatter : Oh, it's a few cuts and bruises. I'm fine.
Alice : [she hugs him tightly] I thought you were dead.
Hatter : [hugs her back; sighs] Oh, that feels good.
[pause]
Hatter : We should save that 'til we're safe.
[they break apart]
Alice : I'm sorry I didn't trust you.
Hatter : Do you trust me now?
Alice : Completely.
Hatter : Good. Follow me; I'm getting us out of here.

Hatter : [as Alice prepares to leave Wonderland; she calls Hatter over to her] I was, uh, I was afraid I might have missed you.
Alice : Well, you cut it a little close!
Hatter : I was, um... guess I was trying... not to think about it... anyways, I wanted to say good-bye.
Alice : [taken aback] 'Good-bye'?
Hatter : And if you, you know, ever fancy coming back...
Alice : You want me to stay?
Hatter : Hell no! No, you - think you should go home.
[they share a long look]
Alice : Yeah, yeah, I've had enough of Wonderland for a lifetime.
Hatter : Yeah, I am sure you have, right? Still, we had... we had a laugh, you know? Had some good times... obviously, among all the... bad times.
Alice : [smiles] Yeah. Yeah, we did. Oh, um...
[takes off the jacket he lent her]
Hatter : You don't have to...
[she hands it back]
Hatter : Brilliant. Thank you. That's good. So, we should...
[they hug]
Alice : You know, you could always visit my world. You might like it.
Hatter : Yeah! We could - we could do pizza.
Alice : [softly] Yeah, and lots of other things.
[Hatter looks like he wants to say more, but Alice is taken away and ushered through the Looking Glass]
