Original artwork, not a still
You gave them the one thing that was stolen from them. A chance. A chance to learn. To find love. To live. And in the end what was your reward? You never said. But I think I know: a family.
— BioShock • 2007
Behind the line
What it means
Our interpretation.
Tenenbaum describes the lives made possible by sparing the Little Sisters. Their reward is not a payment but a lasting relationship with the person who helped them. Her account makes family the answer to a world that has treated vulnerable children as things to exploit.
