D.J. : I wasn't going to tell you this. I've been listening to the distress signal, and I, um, think I made a mistake in the translation.
[Plays the distress signal]
Miller : Go on.
D.J. : I thought it said "liberate me" - "save me." But it's not "me." It's "liberate tutemet" - "save yourself." And it gets worse.
[Plays the distress signal again]
D.J. : There - I think that says "ex inferis." "Save yourself... from Hell." Look, if what Doctor Weir tells us is true, this ship has been beyond the boundaries of our universe, of known scientific reality. Who knows where it's been, what it's seen... or what it's brought back with it?
Miller : From Hell? You don't believe in that kind of stuff, do you?
D.J. : Whoever sent that message, he sure believed in Hell.

Miller : I'm telling you it was his voice I heard, he was calling to me. A young bosun named Eddie Corrick. We served on the Goliath together. When the O2 tanks ruptured, four of us made it to the lifeboat but Corrick was still on board the Goliath when the fire broke out.
[to D.J]
Miller : Have you ever seen fire in zero gravity?
[D.J shakes his head]
Miller : It's beautiful. It's like liquid it... slides all over everything. Comes up in waves. And they just kept hitting him, wave after wave. He was screaming for me to save him.
D.J. : What did you do?
Miller : I did the only thing I could. I closed the lifeboat hatch, and I left him behind. I swore I'd never lose another man.
D.J. : I've known you a long time. You never told me that.
Miller : That's just it D.J, I - I never told *anybody*. But this ship knew about it! It knows my fears, it knows my secrets! Gets inside your head and... it shows you!

[after visiting the "other place" and waking from a coma, Justin has sealed himself in an airlock]
Peters : Justin, open the door.
Justin : Did you hear it?
Starck : [trying to override the lock] Keep him talking.
Peters : Yes. Yes, I heard it. Do you know what it is?
Justin : It shows you things... horrible things.
Peters : What does?
Justin : The dark inside me from the other place. I won't go back there. I won't.
Peters : No, Baby Bear. Come on, open the door.
D.J. : [enters] What's happening?
Starck : I don't think she can talk him down.
D.J. : She'd better. If he opens the airlock, he's going to turn inside out.
Peters : No, you stay with me.
Starck : I've almost got it.
Peters : You stay with me, Justin. Come on, now! Open that door!
Justin : If you could see the things I've seen, you wouldn't try to stop me.
