Enemy Mine

— You saved my life. Why?
— Maybe... I need to look at another face... even as ugly as yours.
— So you still think humans are ugly, huh?
— Compared to a Drac, very ugly. But that thing out there... was even more ugly than you.

— Don't you ever get tired of reading that book?
— No.
— Well, what's in it, anyway?
— Things.
— Oh, for Christ's sake!
— It is called Talmon. It contains the words of our great teacher, Shismar.
— I suppose you have to know the Drac language to read it, right?
— It would help.
— So teach me the Drac language.
— It is not for you, Davidge.
— Shismar is too good for us humans, is that it?
— Not too good for humans, but too good for you.
— Now you're a judge of character.
— Do you not remember what you say about Shismar?
— Well, maybe you forgot what you said about Mickey Mouse!
— That was wrong. I did not mean it.
— I didn't mean what I said about Shismar, either.

— Tell me about Zammis.
— Zammis?
— Yeah. What kind of a name is Zammis?
— There are five names in a Drac's lineage. I am Sheegan. Before me was Gathic. And before Gathic was Islane.
— Come on. Keep talking.
— Before Islane was Tighe. Before Tighe was Zammis.
— Up there. Look!
— One day I must stand with Zammis... before the holy council on Dracon... and recite our lineage... so that Zammis may join... the society of all Dracs.

And so Davidge brought Zammis and the Dracs home. He fulfilled his vow... and recited the line of Zammis's forefathers... before the holy council on Dracon. And when, in the fullness of time, Zammis brought its own child before the holy council, the name of Willis Davidge... was added to the line of Jareeba.
