Four : Sure.
Beatrice 'Tris' Prior : What's your tattoo?

Beatrice 'Tris' Prior : [nods and Four takes off his shirt] Its amazing. The factions. Why do you have all of them?
Four : I don't want to be just one thing. I can't be. I want to be brave, and I want to be selfless, intelligent, and honest and kind. Well, I'm still working on kind.
[smiles and kisses Tris]
-
Four : You alright?
Beatrice 'Tris' Prior : You cut me.

Four : You're supposed to be smart. If I wanted to hurt you, I would've.

Beatrice 'Tris' Prior : We're like the Factionless now. We've left everything behind, but we found ourselves and each other. Tomorrow we may have to fight again, but for now we'll ride the train to the end of the line. And then, we'll jump.
-
Jeanine Matthews : Maybe you're not quite as "Dauntless" as you thought you were.

Tori : Your results were inconclusive.
Beatrice 'Tris' Prior : That's impossible. It doesn't make any sense.
Tori : No, not impossible. It's just extremely rare. They call it "Divergent." You can't tell anyone about this.
-
Beatrice 'Tris' Prior : I was supposed to learn what to do. This was supposed to tell me what faction to choose, the test. We're supposed to trust the test.
Tori : The test didn't work on you. You have to trust yourself.

Jeanine Matthews : Maybe you're not as Dauntless as you think you are.
Beatrice 'Tris' Prior : [injecting Jeanine with serum] No. I'm Divergent. Stop the simulation and wipe the program.

[first lines]
Beatrice 'Tris' Prior : We're lucky to be in the city. They say the war was terrible, that the rest of the world was destroyed. Our founders built the wall to keep us safe, and they divided us into five groups, factions, to keep the peace. The smart ones, the ones who value knowledge and logic, are in Erudite. They know everything. Amity farm the land. They're all about kindness and harmony, always happy. Candor value honesty and order. They tell the truth, even when you wish they wouldn't. And then there's Dauntless. They're our protectors, our soldiers, our police. I always thought they were amazing. Brave, fearless and free. Some people think Dauntless are crazy, when they kind of are.
Beatrice 'Tris' Prior : My faction is Abnegation. The others all call us "stiffs." We lead a simple life, selfless, dedicated to helping others. We even feed the Factionless, the ones who don't fit in anywhere. Because we're public servants, we're trusted to run the government. My father works alongside our leader, Marcus. It all works. Everyone knows where they belong. Except for me.

Christina : Have you never seen a hamburger before?
Beatrice 'Tris' Prior : No I've seen one I've just never eaten one.
Will : Abnegation eat plain food, plant-based style without sauces and no minimums.
Christina : Which textbook did you swallow?
Will : Nice to meet you too. I'm Will, Erudite.
Christina : Of course you are. No offense but I'm surprised Abnegation even eats at all. To selfish right? No wonder you left.
Will : You gotta be pretty self confident to be friends with a Candor.
Christina : What is that supposed to mean?
Will : You say the first thing that comes into your head.
Al : You mean like, "you're an idiot"?
Christina : [Christina laughs] Nice one Al!
-
Beatrice 'Tris' Prior : I'm the weakest one here.
Christina : Then you'll be the most improved.
-
Jeanine Matthews : It's hard to let go. Faction before blood, it's an important ideal, but sometimes difficult to fulfill. It goes against our fundamental human nature. But that's exactly the weakness we need to overcome.
Beatrice 'Tris' Prior : You think that human nature is weakness?
-
Beatrice 'Tris' Prior : I don't want to go too fast.
-
Beatrice 'Tris' Prior : Were you a transfer, too? Or Dauntless born?
Four : Are you kidding?
Four : What makes you think you can talk to me?
Beatrice 'Tris' Prior : It... Must be because you're so approachable
Four : Careful
Christina : You, my friend, have a death wish
-
Tori : They'll find out about you.
Beatrice 'Tris' Prior : Who? Who will?
Tori : The people you're a threat to.
Beatrice 'Tris' Prior : What people? Who, Dauntless?
Tori : No, society. If you don't fit into a category, they can't control you.
-
Beatrice 'Tris' Prior : My mother says there's an art to losing yourself. But I haven't figured it out, yet.
-
Beatrice 'Tris' Prior : Today I take the test. I'm scared it'll tell me I'm not Abnegation. That I have to leave my family. But I'm even more scared that it will tell me to stay.
-
Four : They can see your hallucinations on the screen. So, you get past your fears the way a Dauntless would; but do it quickly.
Beatrice 'Tris' Prior : Right. If I'm too good, then they'll kill me and if I'm too slow, then I'll die.
Four : Right. Good luck.
-
Beatrice 'Tris' Prior : I'm Dauntless. I'm going to be Dauntless. I chose Dauntless.
-
Beatrice 'Tris' Prior : The test should tell us what to do.
Jeanine Matthews : You're still free to choose.
Beatrice 'Tris' Prior : But you don't really want that.
