Voice of Pilot : This will be used as a weapon, against others? John Crichton : Worst case scenario, yeah. Voice of Pilot : If I understand correctly, it has the power to kill tens of thousands. John Crichton : For starters. Voice of Pilot : Are you capable of using this? John Crichton : Yes. Voice of Pilot : Then I don't know you as I thought. [Crichton aims his pistol at Pilot]  Voice of Pilot : So you'll be starting with me then? John Crichton : Someone puts a gun to your head, Pilot. What do you do? What do you do? You defend yourself. And that is why we have to build this. Voice of Pilot : No one has a weapon pointed to your head. John Crichton : Oh, God, Pilot! Everybody's got a weapon pointed at my head! Voice of Pilot : There are other options. John Crichton : Well, why don't you explain that to the tens of millions of people who will die in the meantime! Voice of Pilot : Is that truly your concern? Or is it Aeryn and your unborn offspring that you wish to protect? John Crichton : That's my family, Pilot. Everything begins with family.
