Claire:
Little father didn't come to work. I checked the noteboard, he, he didn't leave one. I tried to call him. I don't know, there's something wrong with the phone? You see, it's never happened before that he, he didn't come to work without giving us notice.

Justine:
Does he have a family?

Claire:
He lives in the village. I don't know if he has family.

Justine:
Maybe this is a time when he needs to be with them.

Claire:
It'll pass us by tonight. John is quite calm about it.

Justine:
Does that calm you down?

Claire:
Yes, of course. Well, John studies things. He always has.

Justine:
The earth is evil. We don't need to grieve for it.

Claire:
What?

Justine:
Nobody will miss it.

Claire:
But where would Leo grow up?

Justine:
All I know is, life on earth is evil.

Claire:
There may be life somewhere else.

Justine:
But there isn't.

Claire:
How do you know?

Justine:
Because I know things.

Claire:
Oh yes, you always imagined you did.

Justine:
I know we're alone.

Claire:
I don't think you know that at all.

Justine:
Six hundred and seventy eight. The bean lottery. Nobody guessed the number of beans in the bottle.

Claire:
No, that's right.

Justine:
But I know. Six hundred and seventy eight.

Claire:
Well, perhaps. But what does that prove?

Justine:
That I know things. And when I say we're alone, we're alone. Life is only on earth. And not for long.
