Julie Bowen: Aresia

Quotes 

• [as the plane is going down, Tsukuri abandons the pilot's chair and grabs a jet pack] 

  Tsukuri : I'm outta here.

  Aresia : Wait! You can't leave me!

  Tsukuri : I like you, but not that much!

• Aresia : Diana, I had Star Sapphire bring you here so I could offer you one last chance to join our noble cause.

  Wonder Woman : Man's world may not be perfect, but destroying it isn't the answer.

  Aresia : You would stand against us, your sisters?

  Wonder Woman : Yes.

  Aresia : A pity.

• Tsukuri : So the poison only affects men?

  Aresia : Exactly. That's why it didn't hurt you two.

  Star Sapphire : But why? What do you have to gain from all of this?

  Aresia : What do I have to gain? Look around you. Man's word is filled with greed, deception, and cruelty. But I'm going to change all that. Today, we women take control.

  Star Sapphire : You can't be serious.

  Aresia : Can't I?

• Aresia : You fools, don't you see? We're not your enemy. It's the men. They must be destroyed.

  Queen Hippolyta : You're wrong, Aresia. Without men, you wouldn't still be here. After your ship sank, you must have lost consciousness as you drifted on your makeshift raft. You would surely have drowned had the ship's captain not found you and pulled you to safety. Valiantly, he struggled to keep you alive, until he brought you to the shores of Themyscira. But the effort was too much for his heart. His final resting place is a simple unmarked grave. He's the only man ever buried on Themyscira. So, you see, for all your hatred of men, it turns out you owe your life to one.

  Aresia : Why didn't you ever tell me about this?

  Queen Hippolyta : I didn't think it was important. I didn't think he was important.

  Hawkgirl : Maybe it's time to reconsider that.

  Aresia : So, everything you ever preached was a lie.

  Queen Hippolyta : Not everything.

  Aresia : Still, the acts of one man cannot redeem the sins of his kind. They all must pay.

• Aresia : A valiant effort, Diana, but you won't stop us. I guarantee it.

  Wonder Woman : [Tsukuri reveals Hippolyta tied up]  Let her go!

  Aresia : You're in no position to give orders here.

• Star Sapphire : Almost done.

  Aresia : Good. We'll be at the launch site in less than an hour.

  Star Sapphire : And then?

  Aresia : I shoot these cruise missiles into the upper atmosphere. After they explode, the winds will scatter my poison all over the world.

  Star Sapphire : And I can say goodbye to some very unpleasant men I've known over the years.

  Aresia : You can say goodbye to all of them.

• Aresia : What happened?

  Tsukuri : I've lost the hydraulics.

  Aresia : How long can you keep us in the air?

  Tsukuri : I don't know. We're still losing altitude.

  Aresia : Then we'll have to launch from here. I'll recompute the coordinates.

  [hearing a crash] 

  Aresia : Go see what that was!

  Star Sapphire : [seeing Wonder Woman on the plane's tail wing]  Uh-oh. Better hurry with those launch codes.

• Aresia : [breaking into an Air Force base to steal a stealth plane]  It's perfect. Absolutely perfect.

  Queen Hippolyta : For what? More betrayal, more destruction?

  Aresia : [bowing]  Your Highness. You of all people should understand why I'm doing this.

  Queen Hippolyta : No. You have violated sacred Amazonian law.

  Aresia : I'm sorry you see it that way.

  [attacking from behind, Tsukuri knocks Hippolyta down] 

  Aresia : But I've come too far to turn back now.
