Production[]

At the funeral for Hicks and Newt, he gives a speech and says, "Why the innocent punished? Why the sacrifice? Why the pain? There aren't any promises. Nothing is certain. Only that some get cold. Some get saved. She won't ever know the hardship and grief for those of us left behind. We commit these bodies to the void with a glad heart. For within each seed, there is the promise of a flower, and within each death, no matter how small, there's always a new life. A new beginning."
