Betty A. Bridges: Fontaine
Quotes
-
White : They mustn't know who you are or what you're after.
Fontaine : Because if we succeed in finding out what caused the war, we can stop it now and our civilization will go on.
Gold : And theirs will never have existed. Not a one will have been born.
David Eakins : It's not a great choice, is it - save our lives or destroy theirs.

[viewing a video tape brought back from in the future]
Fontaine : Now, David, that's what this place looks like 200 years from now.
David Eakins : It's in ruins.
Gold : And has been for quite some time, which means everything we projected is correct. There is going to be a war and it will destroy most of the world as we know it.
Fontaine : When - that's what we have to know.
White : If we knew when and how it started, we'd at least have a chance to prevent it.

David Eakins : None of the earlier probes showed any signs of life.
White : No. We're guessing that the people that survived went underground. It had to take a hundred years for the air to clear. There's no telling how long it was before they came outside again.
Fontaine : The people you see show a fairly high degree of technology. Their clothes; their weaponry and they speak English well. Obviously some kind of sophisticated society must have survived.
Gold : She's right - the gun proves that. It blew a hole in the wall of the ballistics lab when we were testing it.
