Species movie plot
-
Dr. Laura Baker: [Sil] She would make one excellent biological weapon if someone out there thought we were some kind of galactic weed that was going to spread through the universe.
Preston Lennox: So, what you're saying is that, er... she's the cure and we're the disease?
[Preston laughs]
Dr. Laura Baker: That's well said.
Preston Lennox: [studying a terminal] Baker, Laura. 1735 Meander Drive, Simi Valley, California. That's you, right?
Dr. Laura Baker: Last time I checked.
Preston Lennox: What do you do for kicks out there in Simi Valley?
Dr. Laura Baker: Oh, pine for guys like you.
Preston Lennox: That's what I thought.
[they both laugh]

Xavier Fitch: What's happening? Kills a girl at the club, comes home with this guy and kills him.
Dr. Stephen Arden: Well I'd say she fits the classic definition of a psychopath. She's got nothing to inhibit her. No moral sense, no social structure
Dr. Laura Baker: Well she wasn't exactly smothered with a mother's love, or taught good manners, you know what I mean?
Xavier Fitch: I asked what was happening.
Dan Smithson: He did something to her. She was angry.
Dr. Stephen Arden: She'll kill if she feels threatened. She'll kill anyone that gets in her way?
Xavier Fitch: Gets in her way of what?
Dr. Laura Baker: Her life cycle. I think she's trying to mate. Reproduce.
Xavier Fitch: Okay, so why did she kill the girl at the club?
Dan Smithson: Sexual competition.
Preston Lennox: She's pretty hard on the competition.
Xavier Fitch: And now she's managed to mate.
Preston Lennox: It doesn't look like a successful mating to me. He's still got his pants on.
Dan Smithson: She's frustrated.
Dr. Stephen Arden: Who isn't.
Xavier Fitch: What is her problem? He was here. She was here.
Dr. Laura Baker: All right, maybe she rejected him. She probably has some special kind of senses. Rats can sense diseased or genetic damage in their potential mates, So we can test his body for any hereditary diseases, any defects that would have made him a loser, essentially.
Preston Lennox: Needles. Maybe he was some kind of a doper or a diabetic.
Dr. Laura Baker: Yeah. Well, either way would have made him unacceptable. Excuse me. All right. Insulin. Diabetic. There you have it.
Xavier Fitch: Well, she could have just walked out. Why did she have to kill him?
Dr. Laura Baker: Well, I guess he pissed her off.
Dan Smithson: Some men don't like to get rejected. They get insistent.
Xavier Fitch: Put an APB out on this guy's car.
Aide: It's already happened.
Xavier Fitch: I'll go back to the motel. I want to check it out thoroughly.
Preston Lennox: More docile and controllable, huh, Fitch?
