& Vasquez: You’re... my... my father...
    Kellogg: Of course I am.

& Kellogg: You know I’ve always been an admirer of yours. Women like you are rare in any time. Past, present, or future. Whatever happens in there, I’ll always know I met my match in Kiera Cameron.
    Kiera: Well, thank you.

& Brad: It’s not always black and white, Kiera. You of all people should know that.
    Kiera: Oh, that’s right. You’re either fighting for an idea that’s bigger than you, or you’re fighting for yourself. Which is it?

---

& Kiera: Either way, change of plans.

& Kellogg: Gun! Gun! Kill everyone!

& Alec: I’ll build you a better future. I’ll do it for you, Kiera Cameron.

& Alec: Kellogg might have thought he was going back to the day that Kiera and Liber8 arrived. But he didn’t. No.
    Garza: So where... when did he go?

& Alec: You made a better world, Kiera.

The Desperate Hours

Continuum 4×5

& Kiera: In the fairytales I’ve read, the hero enters the cave to slay the dragon. Not to join him.

& Kellogg: Alec does his magic and abracadabra, Kiera disappears.

& Kiera: What happens with you?
    Kellogg: I don’t think that’s any of your concern anymore, Kiera. You made your choice. You chose you.

& Dillon: I wanted to give you a chance to tell me what you know and how this connects to Kiera.
    Carlos: ..... Kiera, Kellogg and Liber8, they were sent back in time from the future to change history.
    Dillon: ..... Haha. Ok, that’s a good one.

& Kellogg: I’ll be the one keeping your legacy alive as I patent and replicate every nano-particle from 2077 inside that bioengineered hulk you call a body.

& Carlos: I don’t get to make exceptions.
    Alec: That’s how the system falls apart.

& Travis: You’re just another CEO in a long line of delusional corporate emperors. And if it’s one thing history has taught us, it’s this: Empires eventually crumble.

& Brad: It’s nothing personal, but I’ve got a deadline.

& Vasquez: Let him go!
    Kellogg: Don’t let me go.

& Kellogg: Kiera, please don’t. I’m just a walking kidney transplant for my future self.

    Kellogg: Every time I look in the mirror.

& Kellogg: Man, that’s one hell of a ray gun! Does this thing shoot aliens?

& Tonkin: You can’t always run from your past. Sometimes you have to confront it head on. Risk everything for a new future.

& Jason: You could introduce yourself. Hey, I’m your future husband. The older guy here is our future kid. Yeah, she’ll fall for you straight away.
    Alec: It doesn’t have to get that weird.

Ω Maybe we need to go out too?

& Alec: This is not a dream. It’s a paradox.

& Kellogg: Piron is the VPD. The VPD is Piron. We’re one big happy family.

& Alec: I’ve been reading what you wrote. Future you. It’s actually quite beautiful. Full of new ideas, unique perspectives. Maybe if I don’t become the evil corporate overlord of the future, you go on to be come Mother fricken Theresa.

& Kellogg: You got to kiss me, so we’re even.

    Tonkin: Clean and fire, burn all timers, neutralize the zealot cell, stabilize the incursion site; salt of God’s saved Earth. Yes, sir.

& Marcelus: This works, maybe it all stops.
    Tonkin: It never stops. It’s the same shit, just different.

& Kiera: You know this is the part where it all goes to hell, right?
    Tonkin: How?

Ω Halo? Hell-O.

Ω On the roof, really?
& Alec: Your future dies with me.

& Carlos: What happened with Alec?

& Carlos: What about Liber8?
    Kiera: It’s complicated.

& Tonkin: Don’t you want to know?
    Kiera: Of course. But I don’t need proof. We aren’t supposed to know, not for certain, and I think that’s the point.

& Kellogg: Ok, now is good. Give him a ride home. There is a nice severance package, and we can chat later about maybe coming back to work for me... at a reduced level, of course. Ok... Bye.

& Kiera: Who... killed... me?

& Alec-2: Which one are you?
    Kiera: I guess that answers which one you are.

& Kiera: You see that? You’re not the only one who had to make a deal with the devil.

& Kiera: Carlos, I can explain.

& Alec-2: It wasn’t me!
    Kiera: That’s the thing, Alec. It was you. You wanted to change things? You’ve changed everything.

& Carlos: Which one are you? Which one of you is the Kiera that I’ve been working with the last year? Which one of you is my partner? My friend...

---

& Alec-1: Emily?
    Kiera: Don’t worry about it too much right now but you and I need to have a serious discussion about her.
    Alec-1: Okay. This isn’t going to be about the birds and the bees, is it?

& Kiera: He doesn’t know I’m not me. Besides, he and I have something that you and I don’t.
    Alec-2: What’s that?
    Kiera: Trust.

& Alec-2: You are never going to let me live this down, are you?
    Kiera: Not in this time line.

& Kellogg: Some things are obvious when you pay attention.

& Carlos: Is this is your Alec or is it our Alec?

& Kiera: We’re all making this up as we go along, Carlos. None of us are immune for making bad decisions. No matter what time line we’re from.

& Kiera: This is it.
    Carlos: Abandoned warehouse. Of course, it’s always an abandoned warehouse.

& Kiera: Unregistered media, analog or printed materials, physical video or audio media is classified contraband and subject to seizure under Section 702 of the Domestic Intelligence Surveillance Act. It must be surrendered immediately. That’s what the law says.

& Mom: Tell me you did that to get me out of trouble.
    Kiera: I didn’t. I believe in this war, Mom. I want to make a difference.

Minute by Minute

Continuum 3×1

& Kiera: Where is Alec?
    Curtis: Not where, when. ... I need to ask you specifically: when is he?

& Katherine: Soon you’ll know everything I know. Soon you’ll see the battlefield for the first time.
    Kiera: Battlefield?
    Curtis: This is a war, Kiera. And every war has one thing in common with every other war.
    Kiera: Death.
    Curtis: And sacrifice.

& Jason: Who are you?
    Alec: Who am I? I’m your father.
    Jason: Don’t say that, that’s private!

& Katherine: Myself, people you see here, we are simply guardians of history.

& Katherine: Destiny is not set. Time is not immutable.

& Katherine: In a roundabout way, we are all fighting for the same thing, Kiera... Continuity.

---

& Curtis: That’s just it, Kiera. When it comes to history, the scale is irrelevant.
    Katherine: Thousands can perish and nothing will happen. But one person can radically shape history. Alec Sadler is one of those people.
    Curtis: Maybe you are, too.

& Kiera: I think you’re all out of your minds.
Ω Exactly!

& Kiera: Two Alecs, two of me.
    Katherine: I would highly recommend avoiding the other you at all costs.
    Kiera: What if she’s the only one I can count on?
Ω Perverted. Double perverted.

& Kiera: Two Alec Sadlers means two possible futures, and I have to determine which Alec Sadler will bring forth the future that you and I both want.
    Katherine: And what happens to the other?

Second Time

Continuum 2×13

& Kiera: Alec, please...
    Alec: I will always blame you! Do you understand me? Always.

& Carlos: I don’t think I’ll be around in 2077 but look me up, will ya? See how we get outta this mess.

Ω Way too much tears.
& Kiera: Goodbye, Carlos.
Ω Boo-bye.

& Carlos: Why don’t you come with me?
    Betty: Where would we go?
    Carlos: I don’t know, we’ll figure something out.
Ω Where are all go?

& Kellogg: Sometimes you get so deep into the game that you lose sight of the goal. Of the win.

& Alec, The Old: People believe that they are free, but the reality is they’ve never been more enslaved.

---

& Jason: Why me?
    Alec, The Old: Because you’ll inherit my failure if I don’t succeed, and I wouldn’t wish that on anyone.
    Jason: You can count on me, father.
Ω Op-pa.

& Alec: Kiera, what is that supposed to mean?
    Escher: Kiera changed everything.

& Marco: I don’t know who you people are, but this isn’t business anymore. This is personal.

& Kellogg: Hi. Perhaps you can help me... Any idea where the anti-matter lab is?

& Alec: What happened to you?
    Kiera: Travis... happened.

& Kiera: Alec, what are you doing?
    Alec: I’m protecting my family.
    Escher: And our legacy.
    Kiera: I don’t understand.
    Escher: Myself, Alec, Jason. Time travel is not just some technological marvel, Kiera. It’s the family business.

& Kiera: That’s all I’ve ever wanted. To put the pieces back together and return to my family!
That might be true, but there will still be an anomaly. A glitch in the continuum. You.

& Freelancer-1: The damage has passed.
   Freelancer-2: Except for Sadler.
   Freelancer-1: He’s no longer our concern.
   Freelancer-2: In THIS time line.
