"It was a day like any other and Mr and Mrs Samuel Brainsample were a perfectly ordinary couple, leading perfectly ordinary lives - the sort of people to whom nothing extraordinary ever happened, and not the kind of people to be the centre of one of the most astounding incidents in the history of mankind... So let's forget about them and follow instead the destiny of this man... Harold Potter, gardener, and tax official, first victim of creatures from another planet."

Kaede: (... ... Well, this is as far as it goes... I couldn't do it. I couldn't get to the mastermind. I'm sorry...everyone. I'm sorry...Rantaro. I'm sorry...Shuichi.

From now on, you're going to carry on my wish! You're going to protect everyone!)
Shuichi: (Kaede...I know what you want me to do... That's so cruel... It's cruel, but... ... ...I understand. I'll do it. You can trust me. I won't let your wish... ...go ungranted.)
