26 Finish the quote by Newt: "They mostly come at night... ____"
Answer: Mostly

This occurs right after the drop-ship crash. She says this to Ripley because she wants everyone to get inside because the Aliens always come out in packs at night. Despite the seeming simplicity of this line, this memorable quote was used by TV shows such as "South Park", which actually quotes it multiple times in different episodes. It has become quite iconic of this movie.

49 After the explosion that destroys the dropship and the APC, Hicks reviews the salvagable material. One item pops up in the Special Edition that didn't appear in the shorter version. What is it?
