How we cite our quotes: (Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote #1
I love Thursday nights.
They have a feel to them that's outside of time.
It's our tradition, just the three of us—family night. (1.1-3)
Jason is a total family man. It's not just that he makes the extra effort to spend time with his wife and son, but that he also seems to enjoy that time more than anything else in his life, time spent doing scientific experimentation included.
Quote #2
I love my son. He means everything to me. And yet, I can't escape the feeling that I'm failing him. (1.49)
It's not easy to raise a teenager—trust us, we were teenagers, too. As we see here, Jason is struggling to navigate his changing relationship with his now hormone-ridden son.
Quote #3
"I had told you the day before that I was pregnant. [...] You came to my loft and said it was the hardest decision you'd ever made, but you were busy with your research." (5.481)
Our Jason gives up his dream to become a research scientist so he can raise a family with Daniela, but Jason2 makes the exact opposite choice. This has a huge impact on his life, leading him to invent a vehicle for multidimensional travel. Pretty cool. Still, it's clear that the guy regrets this decision. He wouldn't have kidnapped Jason otherwise.
