Look upon My Legacy, Algrim.
I can barely remember a time before The Light.
Our Survival will be your legacy.
The Asgardians will suffer as we have suffered.
I will reclaim The Aether.
I will restore Our World.
And I will put an end
to This Poisoned Universe.
Final Report of the commercial starship Nostromo,
Third Officer Ripley Reporting.
The other members of The Crew -
Kane, Lambert, Parker, Brett, Ash,
and Captain Dallas
- are Dead.
Cargo and Ship destroyed.
I should reach The Frontier in about six weeks.
With a little luck,
The Network will pick me up.
This is Ripley,
Last Survivor of The Nostromo,
signing off.
[to Jonesy the cat]
Come on, cat.
This is an S.O.S Distress Call from The Mining Ship Red Dwarf.
The Crew are Dead,
killed by a radiation leak.
The Only Survivors are
Dave Lister,
who was in suspended-animation during The Disaster,
and his pregnant cat
who was safely sealed in The Hold.
Revived 3 million years later,
Lister's only companions are,
a life form who evolved from his cat
and Arnold Rimmer,
a hologram simulation
of one of the dead crew.
I am Holly, The Ship’s Computer
with an IQ of 6,000 -
The same IQ of 6,000 P.E. teachers, or 12,000 Car Park Attendants.
