[as Liberator steers to engage the alien fleet, a wounded Blake appears on the flight deck]
Avon : Why didn't you stay in the medical unit? Couldn't you bring yourself to trust me just this once?
Blake : I thought I might be able to help.
Avon : In that condition?
Blake : All right I'll go back.
Avon : Can you manage, alone?
Blake : Yes. Avon, for what it is worth, I have always trusted you, from the very beginning.

Blake : I meant what I said on Goth, Avon. We are not going to use Star One to rule the Federation, we are going to destroy it.
Avon : I never doubted that. I never doubted your fanaticism. As far as I am concerned you can destroy whatever you like. You can stir up a thousand revolutions, you can wade in blood up to your armpits. Oh, and you can lead the rabble to victory, whatever that might mean. Just so long as there is an end to it. When Star One is gone it is finished, Blake. And I want it finished. I want it over and done with. I want to be free.
Cally : But you are free now, Avon.
Avon : [glaring at Blake] I want to be free of *him*.
Blake : I never realized. You really do hate me, don't you?

[the Liberator has entered orbit around Star One]
Blake : Maximum scan, Cally. Look for anything unusual or out of place, sudden temperature variation, anything. They're bound to have left some clue as to where they put that installation.
[pause]
Blake : A door would be nice if you could manage it.
Cally : [glaring at Blake] I'll do my best.
Blake : Preferably one marked 'Entrance'.
Cally : [ignoring Blake] Ready on the scan, Jenna.

Avon : I have been doing some calculations, if this is Star One...
Blake : *If* it is?
Avon : First catch your computer, but all right it probably is, and that being the case the choice of location is fascinating.
Blake : I'm glad you're enjoying it.
Avon : The nearest large galaxy to our own is Andromeda.
Blake : So?
Avon : So, this is the nearest point to Andromeda. If anyone could cross intergalactic space in less than a lifetime we are now precisely upon the route that they would take.
Blake : What are you trying to say, Avon?
Avon : I directed the detectors toward the Andromeda galaxy. There are thousands of satellite generators out there, *beyond* Star One.
Blake : [shocked] What?
Avon : Even with the Federation's resources it must have taken them years.
Blake : [checking the readout] That must be the biggest antimatter minefield ever put together!
Vila : Minefield, what minefield?
Avon : Perhaps the intergalactic drive has been developed. The question is, by whom?
Blake : A defense zone to keep mankind in, or something else out.

[Stot thinks that Blake is Travis]
Stot : May I ask you an impertinent question?
Blake : If you don't mind an impertinent answer.
Stot : I have taken on the shape of your species. I use your words, and yet I cannot understand you. The woman Lurena and the other technicians that were here, these I could understand. But you. Why have you betrayed your own kind? Why have you given us the means to eradicate your species?
Blake : [confused] Eradicate humanity?
Stot : Virtually.
Blake : Well maybe I just don't like crowds.
