Escape from L.A. - Choices and Consequences in a Dystopian World
President:
What's it to be, Plissken? Us or them?
Snake:
Shut down the Third World; they lose, you win. Shut down America; you lose, they win. The more things change, the more they stay the same.
President:
So what are you going to do?
Snake: [Types "666" on the remote]
Disappear.
Brazen: [looks at Sword of Damocles system display; to the President]
He's entered the world code...no target code. Sir, that'll shut down the entire planet.
Snake:
I told you, you'd better hope I didn't make it back.
Malloy: [takes one step closer and pleads]
You push that button, everything we've accomplished for the past 500 years will be finished. Our technology, our way of life, our entire history. We'll have to start all over again. For God's sakes, don't do it, Snake!
Snake: [pushes the button; the Sword of Damocles EMP satellites fire off, disabling all electrical systems - including Utopia's electric chair just before she is to be executed]
The name's Plissken.
Utopia: [as the light fades out]
He did it! He shut down the Earth!
Snake:
Welcome to the human race.
