The Wandering Gambler:

• ???: Well, what do we have here?
• ???: Grasslands as far as the eye can see and not a casino or pub in sight. Wish there was at least a beautiful lady to keep me company.
• ???: If only I had my airship.
• Mog: Kupo! I can sense the light coming from that man!
• Terra: Setzer!?
• Setzer: Heh, wasn't expecting to run into you guys here.
• Shadow: Setzer, you too? How long have you been in this world?
• Setzer: What do you mean "this world"?
• Shadow: This moogle knows more about it than I do. He can fill you in.
• Mog: Leave it to me, kupo!
• Setzer: Whew... Sounds like I've gotten myself in a real mess this time.
• Setzer: And you say you want me to help you save the world?
• Hope: That's right.
• Terra: The world will be destroyed if we don't do something. Setzer, please come with us.
• Setzer: Thanks, but no thanks.
• Mog: Kupo!? Why?
• Setzer: No casinos, no pubs... There's nothing to live for here, so why risk my life?
• Mog: Awww, kupo...
• Setzer: I'm a wandering gambler. I do what I want, going wherever the wind takes me.
• Shadow: Hmph. You never change, even if the world does.
• Setzer: Life is a series of gambles. You've gotta go with your gut.
• Setzer: I just want to be the one who rolls the dice.
• Mog: Why do you have to be so difficult, kupo?
• Setzer: Well, good luck with that saving the world thing. Who knows? Maybe we'll meet again one day.
  

(Setzer leaves)

• Terra: Setzer...
• Hope: What a mysterious person. Are you sure we can trust him?
• Shadow: He would no doubt be an excellent addition to our cause.
• Shadow: Perhaps an airship really could tilt things in our favor.

Why We Fight:

• ???: Well, I'm impressed.
• Setzer: I watched you take care of those monsters.
• Mog: You're back, kupo! It's nice to see you again!
• Warrior of Light: Setzer, was it? Have you decided to accept our proposal?
• Setzer: Not quite. I'm just trying to figure something out.
• Hope: What do you mean?
• Setzer: Why do you fight? What are you risking your lives for?
• Setzer: There's not a single town or person in this world. Nothing here's worth fighting for.
• Warrior of Light: We are no different from you—warriors from another world.
• Warrior of Light: Naturally, we all have homes we must return to and dreams yet to be fulfilled. Surely that is worth fighting for.
• Setzer: Chasing after your dreams, huh?
• Yuffie: Exactly! Take me for example. My dream's to one day steal enough treasure to restore glory to my village!
• Vivi: When I get home, I wanna go to the theater and watch plays every day.
• Hope: No matter what happens, I can't let myself give up—for the sake of my friends and for myself as well. I'm using this opportunity to get stronger.
• Warrior of Light: We continue our journey because each of us has something we're looking to accomplish. Is that not enough?
• Setzer: All right, you've got me.
• Setzer: I mean, why not? Consider my life a chip in your pile.
• Terra: Do you mean...!?
• Setzer: What you said reminded me that I still have a dream like no other. I was a fool.
• Setzer: Sitting around isn't gonna solve anything. You know, sometimes you've just gotta roll the dice and hope for the best.
• Yuffie: I didn't even get half of that, but you sounded cool to me!
• Setzer: I'm a gambler. Deception is but one of my many talents. I'll show you just how rewarding my skills can be in battle.
• Warrior of Light: We are counting on you.
• Hope: Yeah, we really appreciate the help.
• Mog: Thanks, everybody, for getting him onboard, kupo!
• Setzer: I can't wait. What could be more exciting than gambling with your own life?

The World Is Our Oyster:

• Vivi: What's wrong?
• Setzer: Ever since I came here, all I've done is fight.
• Setzer: Nothing wrong with that, but I have to wonder if there isn't anything else in this world to do for fun.
• Mog: For fun? Our company isn't fun enough, kupo?
• Setzer: That's not what I meant. I'm talking about entertainment—gambling, games, you know?
• Tifa: Games, huh? Hmm... We have a huge amusement park back in our world.
• Tifa: It's got the Shooting Coaster, and shows, and all sorts of attractions.
• Steiner: ...Shooting what?
• Tifa: Shooting Coaster. You ride in a cart that zooms down a track full of twists and turns.
• Setzer: Zooms, eh? That does sound like fun.
• Cloud: ...It's not for everyone.
• Tifa: Oh, uh... Yeah... Not if you're prone to nausea.
• Vivi: Theater plays are probably the most fun in our world, right?
• Steiner: "I Want to Be Your Canary" is a classic. I cannot wait to get back home and properly enjoy it.
• Vivi: We have a famous card game that's really fun, too. The tournaments get really competitive.
• Setzer: Theater and card games, huh? Your world sounds a lot like mine.
• Cloud: So what's your idea of fun?
• Setzer: Gambling—you could say it's what I live for.
• Setzer: I used to play all night at my casino against the top gamblers from around the world.
• Tifa: "At my..."? You run a casino!?
• Setzer: I would love for you to come see it when this is all over.
• Mog: It's too bad we still haven't found a casino in this world, kupo...

On Spread Wings:

• Setzer: The sky is as vast as in any world...
• Setzer: I'd be tearing it up if I only had my wings... Heh.
• Yda: Ah, there he is! Hey! Setzer!
  

(Yda and Edge arrive)

• Edge: What's with the moping? Come on, let's go.
• Setzer: See that bird looking down on us?
• Edge: Yeah? So what?
• Setzer: Surrendering itself to the wind, hovering in the sky—we're on the same planet, yet we live in different worlds.
• Yda: Is it just me or is he acting unusually sentimental?
• Edge: You think he ate something funny?
• Yang: Is everything okay?
  

(Yang and Laguna arrive)

• Laguna: What's the holdup, folks?
• Yda: Setzer has got the blues, if you can believe that!
• Setzer: I'm just tired of treading this earth.
• Laguna: Wh-whoa! Don't tell me you're gonna jump off that cliff!
• Yang: Setzer, you're not thinking straight! If you need to talk, I'm here for you!
• Setzer: ...That's not what I meant.
• Laguna: Oh, really? Man, don't startle me like that.
• Yang: Let's go back to camp. Mog is waiting for us.
  

(Everyone leaves, except Setzer)

• Setzer: I'm a man of my word, Darill.
• Setzer: I'll find a way back and make our wish come true.

Setzer's Dream:

• Hope: It looks like we've sealed all the Torsions in this area.
• Sazh: Then let's fly outta here!
• Vaan: Hey Sazh, let me take a turn at the wheel for once!
• Sazh: Not in a million years, kid.
• Setzer: Hold up, old man.
• Sazh: Old man? You talkin' about me?
• Hope: Who else would he be talking about?
• Setzer: Did you just say "airship"? You have one?
• Sazh: Of course, I do! You're lookin' at the best pilot this world's ever seen.
• Sazh: Wh-what?
• Setzer: I thought you were just some guy in a strange getup from another world, but it looks like we're one and the same after all.
• Sazh: What do you mean "one and the same"?
• Vaan: Wait... Setzer, you're a pilot, too?
• Setzer: Captain of the Blackjack, my own personal airship and true love.
• Sazh: What, you too!?
• Hope: I thought you were a gambler, not a pilot.
• Setzer: Don't get me wrong. I do love gambling—to the point that I even built a casino on my airship.
• Setzer: But that's not my calling. What I want most is to be the fastest thing soaring across the wide blue yonder.
• Vaan: I know what you mean. One day, I want to be the greatest sky pirate there ever was!
• Sazh: There's nothing like flying, right!? Man, I'd love to hear some of your stories!
• Shadow: Looks like they really hit it off.
• Mog: I'm glad we're all friends now, kupo!
• Setzer: I'm sure I'll discover new revelations looking down from the clouds on what I once thought was a barren world.
• Setzer: All right, I've made up my mind. I'm going to become the fastest pilot in this world!
• Setzer: It doesn't matter where you are. If you're going to dream, dream big. Right, old man?
• Sazh: Now that's what I'm talkin' about!
• Vaan: Don't count me out yet! Come on, I challenge you to a race!
• Hope: I wish I had something that I could get excited about.
• Sazh: Hope, you're still young. You've got the rest of your life ahead of you to find something you enjoy.
• Hope: You're right. I'll remember that.
