[she crosses her eyes asymmetrically]

Lt. Gordon Malloy : So what?
Cmdr. Kelly Grayson : Ed taught me how to do that. It is a characteristic of Kelly Grayson that exists only because of my relationship with him. No Ed, no eye trick.
Lt. Gordon Malloy : That's a hell of a romantic legacy.
Cmdr. Kelly Grayson : Now imagine the reverse. If someone went and deleted Ed from my life.
Lt. Gordon Malloy : No Captain's chair, no... Orville.
Cmdr. Kelly Grayson : For any of us. Humans are social animals. When we're born, we're a blank slate. And over the course of our lives, we expand and grow as a result of external stimuli
Lt. Gordon Malloy : Pretty dry philosophy.
Cmdr. Kelly Grayson : Sounds it, but it's not. Every single one of us is shaped by the totality of our relationships. People we love and people we hate, all make their mark. Whether we like it or not, it's who we are; it's reality. You can't just pick and choose which parts of your past you want to change and be able to know how it's all gonna turn out.
