Sophia Maguire:
They saved us.

President Elias Martinez:
Who? Who saved us?

Sophia Maguire:
I haven't told you everything...

President Elias Martinez:
Why are we holding them? Have they committed any acts of aggression?

Blake Sterling:
We're holding them because they refuse to tell us the truth. About who they really are, why they are really here, or what they really want. They have a hidden agenda, sir. I know it in my bones.

President Elias Martinez:
I'm done. The deal's off. You're going back to Inostranka. You and your people will stay there until I get the truth.

Sophia Maguire:
That would be a mistake, Mr. President. My people have been waiting for 66 years. Their patience is running out.

President Elias Martinez:
Is that a threat?

Sophia Maguire:
You wanted the truth. I'm giving it too you.
