- Mimi Hynek: What in the world are you doing?
- Dr. J. Allen Hynek: Good news. My camera matrix project was approved... last minute.
- Mimi Hynek: I have no idea what any of that means.
- Dr. J. Allen Hynek: It means I have a lot of work to do.
- Mimi Hynek: You've been cooped up in here for two weeks. You never sleep, you barely eat. You're scaring me.
- Dr. J. Allen Hynek: There's nothing to be afraid of. Just go back to bed, please.
- Mimi Hynek: No! Haven't you had enough of this? Because I know I have.
- Dr. J. Allen Hynek: While the truth might be sometimes less entertaining than unfounded speculation, there's safety in the certitude it provides. Right now, we all need to feel safe... everyone.
- Dr. J. Allen Hynek: Green is a very interesting color in astronomy. Our eyes are more sensitive to green than any other color. That's why it's so often visible in the night sky.
- Mimi Hynek: It's Allen. Something happened recently, and I don't know what. But he's hurting in a way I've never seen before.
- Susie Miller: I wonder what it is. Could it have something to do with his job? What is it called again? Blue Book?
- Mimi Hynek: Ever since he started there, he's had to be so secretive. I know there's more he's hiding, but he just won't talk about it
- Susie Miller: Well, then you've got to do something about that for your own sake... for Allen's, too.
- Mimi Hynek: I try, but he just keeps pushing me out. What am I supposed to do?
- Susie Miller: You're his wife, Mimi. If he won't tell you the truth, then you have ever right to find it out for yourself.
- Mimi Hynek: I feel like a trespasser in my own home.
- Susie Miller: Isn't that part of the problem you're trying to solve?
- Mimi Hynek: I couldn't do this if you weren't here. You mean a lot to me.
- Susie Miller: I'm just happy to help.
- Captain Michael Quinn: What the hell did you expect?
- Dr. J. Allen Hynek: I expected to discover the truth. I expected a partner who would back me up!
- Dr. J. Allen Hynek: From now on, you and I... we are going to work as a team.
- Mimi Hynek: No more secrets.
- Dr. J. Allen Hynek: About every 75 years, Halley's comet returns to us. And on the day I was born the comet flew closer to Earth than ever before. People were terrified. They thought it was an omen signaling the end of the world. But my mother didn't agree. She believed it was an omen, yes. But an omen that announced my birth. And she believed that I would be a man of great accomplishment, like a comet across the sky. But the truth is I never was.
