## Clades
### Searcher

* You gave me a machete for my birthday.
* Are you okay? [Splat squeals a response] I'm talking to my son!
* How are you my dad?
* My whole life, I worked so hard to be the exact opposite of my dad... And, uh, looks like I ended up just like him. I just wanted so badly to build you a legacy you could be proud of. But I might’ve got a little bit caught up in it.

### Jaeger

* The cliffs are alive, and the water won't dissolve the flesh off your bones.
* Come on, Searcher, stop embarrassing me out here!
* You ain't seen nothing yet, child.
* You're a Clade! We love danger.

### Ethan

* Oh, by the way, do you mind if I call you Splat? I just came up with it, You just kind of give me Splat vibes, so I just thought...
* They're basically the same person.
* He just wants to help.
* I'm so lucky I ran into you! By the way, you're not dangerous, right? I mean, you don't look dangerous, I just, you know...
* Just be brave! You can do this.
* It’s inspiring to see how resilient people can be. We can be resourceful. We can surprise. The world’s clearly changed. And it continues to change. And though we can’t live like we did in the past, we’ve now given ourselves a better stance at a future. We’re not quite there yet, but we won't be. Because the best legacy we can leave is making a present worth opening tomorrow. Thank you for everything you’ve given me. I’ll do my best to live up to your legacy. I owe I make you proud. Love always, your son.

### Meridian

* What is the leader of Avalonia doing in our front yard?
* I don't know what you said, but I'm pretty sure it was inappropriate.
* Hold up. You all have eyeballs, right? We're all seeing the same thing, yeah? That's acid! No one can fly through that!
* I've been trying to flag you down for the last four hours! OUR SON IS ON YOUR SHIP!

## Callisto Mal

* Our entire world is in grave danger. I want you to come with me on an expedition.
* We are clearly in uncharted territory.

## Dialogue

    Jaeger Clade: Searcher, we're explorers, not gardeners. Conquering those mountains is our legacy!
    Searcher Clade: No, Dad. It's yours!
    Jaeger Clade: [furiously] ENOUGH! YOU'RE MY SON!
    Searcher Clade: But I'm not you! [Jaeger shocked at Searcher's words] I'm not you.
    Callisto Mal: I don't mean to interrupt, but I actually think Baby Clade's right.
    Jaeger Clade: Callisto?
    Callisto Mal: Jaeger, we don't actually know what's past the mountains. But these plants here are real. We owe it to Avalonia to see what they can do.
    [Jaeger looks at his path to the mountains, then back at Searcher]
    Jaeger Clade: Here. [gives Searcher his compass] You'll need this to find your way home.
    Searcher Clade: What?
    [Jaeger then angrily starts storming off leaving Searcher alone]
    Callisto Mal: Jaeger?
    Searcher Clade: Dad...
    Callisto Mal: Jaeger, come back!
    Searcher Clade: Dad, wait. Dad!
    Callisto Mal: Jaeger, you can't survive out there alone!
    Searcher Clade: Dad, stop!
    Ethan Clade: [as he sees his parents kissing] Ew. This is the first image that has to be imprinted on my brain this morning?
    Meridian Clade: Oh, Ethan, does this bother you?
    Searcher Clade: Impossible. I mean, what sixteen year-old boy doesn’t like seeing their parents smooch? [starts kissing again much to Ethan's disgust]
    Ethan Clade: Okay, okay! Ugh! [eating his breakfast] You know, I hope you know that you're emotionally scarring Legend.
    Meridian Clade: Yeah. He looks real upset.
    [Searcher sighs and looks at the weeds outside from the window]
    Searcher Clade: Looks like someone forgot to weed the north field.
    Ethan Clade: [still eating his food while Legend eats the two] Father, what is a weed... other than a plant growing somewhere that you find inconvenient?
    Searcher Clade: [sighs happily] I appreciate how clever you are! But you know what I'd appreciate more?
    Ethan Clade: If I weeded the north field?
    Searcher Clade: You see? So clever! [Searcher starts kissing Meridian]
    Caspian: Mr. Clade, I'm a huge fan…
    Searcher Clade: Oh, thank you.
    Caspian: Of your dad. [Searcher sighs] Could you please forge his signature?
    [after Jaeger saved Searcher and Legend from reapers]
    Searcher Clade: Hey. Uh, hello. I'm a human being from the top world. You probably don't understand a word I'm saying, do you?
    Jaeger Clade: Of course I understand you. What do you think I am? One of those mindless monsters?
    Searcher Clade: Huh?
    Jaeger Clade: That's right, bub. You're in the presence of the one, the only, Jaeger… [takes off his cloak]
    Searcher Clade: Dad?
    Jaeger Clade: Dad!?
    [As they get attacked by reapers]
    Searcher Clade: Stay behind me!
    Ethan Clade: Who's he?
    Searcher Clade: Ethan, meet your grandpa.
    Ethan Clade: That's Jaeger Clade.
    Jaeger Clade: The one and only.
    Ethan Clade: No monster, no Pando!
    Searcher Clade: And no bad guys? What kind of game has no bad guys?
    Jaeger Clade: That’s just poor storytelling.
    Ethan Clade: Okay. You know what?! You want bad guys?! Fine. You two are the bad guys! BECAUSE YOU'RE BOTH ARE ANNOYING ME!
    [Ethan walks in frustration and opens the door but Splat removes the cards and squeaks in frustration while walking and slams the door]
    Searcher Clade: Ha! Teenagers, right?
    Jaeger Clade: [flicks the card away] I win!
    Meridian Clade: You're doing great. Yeah, just... [gasps] WATCH OUT FOR THE WALKING LANDMASS! [rushes to Ethan and steers the Venture Ship to avoid]
    Ethan Clade: And I got it! See? [sees Searcher and Jaeger holding the bars clingly] Sorry, sorry. My bad. We're all good.
    Searcher Clade: I know you, Ethan. And this isn't you. Ethan, come back here. Ethan! Ethan!
    [after Ethan jumps off the Venture Ship to leave, Searcher follows him on his vehicle]
    Searcher Clade: Are you crazy? Hey, get on this skiff, now!
    Ethan Clade: Leave me alone!
    [He tries to leave, but Searcher catches up]
    Searcher Clade: Hey, what is this all about?!
    Ethan Clade: You, Dad. You.
    Searcher Clade: Me?!
    Ethan Clade: You just assume I’ll follow in your footsteps, but you never asked me what I wanted!
    Searcher Clade: You're a kid! [grabs Ethan to his vehicle] You don't know what you want!
    Ethan Clade: I know I DON'T WANNA BE YOU!
    Searcher Clade: [sighs] My whole life, I worked so hard to be the exact opposite of my dad. And, uh, looks like I ended up just like him. I just wanted so badly to build you a legacy you could be proud of. But I might've got a little bit caught up in it.
    Ethan Clade: Dad, stop taking.
    Searcher Clade: Ethan I'm trying to apologize here.
    Ethan Clade: Dad.
    Searcher Clade: That's an eye, right?
    Ethan Clade: Yeah.
    Searcher Clade: A… A really, really big eye.
    Ethan Clade: Yeah.
    Searcher Clade: And it's looking right at us.
    Ethan Clade: [gasps] You… You know what this means, right?
    Searcher Clade: It's judging me?
    Ethan Clade: No, no. If this place has an eye, it has to be attached to a head. And if this place has a head, that means what we've been travelling through this entire time was its insides.
    Searcher Clade: Like, its guts and stuff?
    Ethan Clade: Okay, yes. Hear me out. The winding forests that we were in, that's the lungs, and… and the acid lake? That's the stomach!
    Searcher Clade: And this giant eye must be its eye.
    Ethan Clade: The Reapers aren't monsters. They're an immune system.
    Searcher Clade: What?
    Ethan Clade: That's what Splat was trying to tell me. This place is alive. It's a living thing. We didn't find the heart of Pando, we found an actual heart.
    Searcher Clade: So, all this time, we've been living on the back of this giant creature?
    Ethan Clade: Yeah, and Pando is killing it.
    [As Searcher walks into the Venture Ship, one of Callisto's crew grab him]
    Searcher Clade: Callisto?!
    Ethan Clade: [off-screen] Dad?!
    [Searcher sees Meridian, Ethan and Splat are captured by Caspian and Pulk]
    Meridian Clade: Get your hands off me!
    Callisto Mal: [reveals her true identity] Emotions are running really high right now, and I don't know what you think you saw, but we came down here to save Pando. That plan hasn't changed.
    Searcher Clade: [getting taken away by her crew] You have no idea what you're doing! You are going to destroy Avalonia!
    Meridian Clade: No, let me go!
    Searcher Clade: Please, you gotta listen to me!
    Ethan Clade: Get off me!
    [Callisto's crew put Meridian, Ethan, Searcher and Splat into a storage closet and locks them up inside the room]
    Searcher Clade: You're making a big mistake! You gotta get us outta here! Unlock this door! No, you can't do this! YOU HAVE TO LISTEN TO ME!
    Ethan Clade: Can you not yell at my dog?!
    Searcher Clade: Well, I wouldn't yell if he were actually trained!
    Ethan Clade: He is trained. He hasn't peed in the house for the last two days.
    Meridian Clade: We've been on this ship for the last two days.
    [Splat continues to guide Legend and sees the switch and plays it]
    Searcher Clade: You still have to unlock it. There's a switch right beside the handle! Legend, do you see the switch? Legend, you see the switch?
    [Legend spots the switch and playfully licks it]
    Searcher Clade: What is that sound? Is he licking the switch?! Legend, stop licking the switch. [Meridian chuckles to searcher as Legend licks it] Legend, stop! Legend, stop licking the switch! STOP LICKING THE SWITCH!
    [Splat squeaks to Searcher and slides down to the door outside and switches the door lever and pats him but he slides down to the door back inside and Legend opens it revealing the Clades and gives a thumbs up as they struggle to go out at the storage room]
    Ethan Clade: Okay, what's the plan?
    Searcher Clade: Let's get back control of this ship!
