They, uh, they tell me that all the weakness and disorientation should pass soon. It's just natural side effects of such an unusually long hypersleep, or something like that.
Ripley : What do you mean? How long was I out there?
Burke : [ stunned ] Has no one discussed this with you yet?
Ripley : No. But, I mean, I don't... recognize this place.

Ripley : *How* long? Please.
Burke : [ after a pause ] Fifty-seven years.
Ripley : [ stunned disbelief ] What?
Burke : That's the thing. You were out there for fifty-seven years. What happened was, you had drifted right through the core systems, and it's really just blind luck that a deep salvage team found you when they did. It's one in a thousand, really. I think you're damn lucky to be alive, kiddo. You could be floating out there forever.

Ripley : But each one of these things comes from an egg, right? So who's laying these eggs?
Bishop : I'm not sure. It must be something we haven't seen yet.

Ripley : Oh, yeah.
