Questionable Choices in a Crisis Situation

Morgan What are we gonna do?

[after a hitchhiker they picked up shoots herself]

Kemper I don't know... uh... we gotta call the cops, I guess.

Morgan Um, yeah, on a list of bad ideas, that one goes, way up there. Oh, police officers, please, as you inspect a crime scene, which is now our van, please, ignore the colorful pinata, filled with marijuana, in case you happen to come across it, because it played no part, you know, whatsoever in the demise of this unfortunate, young, woman.

Desperation in the Face of Danger

Elaine Jarrod, what are you doing?

Oliver You think I haven't noticed that? You think I haven't noticed that mess under your shirt? The plan is we stay here and hold up... for good!

Elaine I agree!

Jarrod You're going to let him decide everything? Look around you! We have no power. No more running water.

Elaine Yeah, but you saw what is out there! We will not get 100 yards from this building!

Jarrod Yeah, and I would rather take a stupid chance out there trying to make a run for it then staying up here in a 20-story target! Between those things and the radiation, we are dead up here!

[to Jarrod; pause]

Jarrod We're sitting on the marina for Christ's sake!

Oliver I've noticed it.

Jarrod They're hundreds of boats at the docks...

Candice We've been through all this!

Oliver Remind us how that worked out last time.

Jarrod Well... uh... we... we'll go quietly this time. We wait until... uh... it gets a little quiet then we'll go down the back stairs and uh...

[trying to think]

Oliver We tiptoe to the marina... on foot in broad daylight with little cover and just search every boat until we find the right one with the key? Great plan!

Elaine I can't believe you're even suggesting this after what happened!

[to Jarrod]

Jarrod What are you saying? What... are you saying that Terry's death was my fault? Are you blaming me for what happened?

Elaine I was practically begging you not to go, but you and Terry wouldn't listen to me!

Jarrod And if I had, do you really think Terry would have listened to me? Huh?
