Lester: Abby, you've got to stop this now. Please don't make me call security. There's no chance whatsoever of you getting those creatures out of here.
Abby: How did you know?
Lester: Don't blame Jess. She was frightened of you getting hurt.
Abby: This is wrong. No human being in history has seen these creatures alive before us... we've been given the most amazing gift. And how do we repay that? That privilege? By killing them because they're... inconvenient. What does that say about humans? About us? Lester, after all we've done here, is this how we're going to be remembered?
